Pendrake strikes the unseen creature and though he put less force behind the blow feels sure he has still hurt it. OOG: 2 damage to UT2.OOG: Peladus for round 16...

"Juist, juist try not tae think aboot it tay soon," Gildrim says, voice choked. "Tae think, he coud hae cam back a dwairrrrf," he mutters to himself. "Whit a world."Richard loses 1 level, and is left on an XP total halfway to his previous level, in this case 8000 XP. After a previous PC...

Ngikhnit backs off a way. The creature Midias missed continues to strike out at those around it. No tentacles come anywhere close to Midias, but Gillin is struck a glancing blow, and Pendrake absorbs two heavier strikes. If the creature is capable of thought, perhaps it wishes not to be...

...and swings beneath a thrashing tentacle. OOG: Ngikhnit (and Peladus)...

"Och, laddie, laddie, ye're cursit!" Gildrim wails. "Ye're a prancin' prissy pointy-eared beardless - " but he cannot bring himself to say it, even with the evidence right in front of his eyes. "Can ye bear it? Aw shoud... shoud we dae th' kindest thing? We've money tae pay for anither try...

The building Peladus is standing next to is a shed, roughly square, 30 feet on a side, with doors on its northern side, next to the ladder. The building that makes up the eastern wall of the (N-S) alleyway Peladus came through is similar. The long unbroken wall on the other side of the storage...

OOC: GildrIm! Grrr... "They can choke on their hatreds," Gildrim snarls. "Warm blood an' cold mebbe shoudnae mix, same as beards an' pointy ears. Nae guid comes ay it." "But... weel, Ah didnae want tae say anythin', for fear ay givin' false hope, but ye twa seem tae need comfort. Sae, ye...

No, it's not fixed to the wall. It's just leaning against it. But it is long enough to reach the roof.

Pendrake drives shreds of black flesh from the eastern creature's mass. It remains in one piece. OOG: 4 damage to UT4.The creature turns from Peladus and with viscid gelatinous ease slides up the rough wall of the shed. Just short of the top, twenty feet up, it vanishes from view.OOG: Peladus...

On the ground behind Gillin, Quozen gives a great gasp, and begins to breathe steadily. OOG: UT2 is on the left, UT4 on the right, though by definition they have the same number of HP currently. Scott, you'll need to pick one or the other as Pendrake's target for the Dodge feat.OOG: good...

Peladus steps out of reach and bathes the monstrosity in a swirl of shimmering light. It doesn't even appear to notice. OOG: no miss chance required.The creature slaps back at its assailants, directing two of its myriad tentacles at the off-balance Ngikhnit. One drives past his knee, the...

Midias hurries forward. Ngikhnit charges in recklessly, but his flail sweep, like Pendrake's effort, passes harmlessly through obscuring streamers of shadow. OOG: Peladus (acting before Ngikhnit, but actions unlikely to interfere)...

OOG: I forgot that Quozen should make a stabilization roll at the end of the round in which he falls unconscious and dying. It seems a little unfair that his regular companions have no chance to act first, but those are the rules. I did have Gillin attempt a Heal check, with no success...

OOG: hold up. Initiative order is Pendrake, Midias, Peladus, Ngikhnit. Situation might not be the same by the time we get to Ngikhnit.

More wrecked objects appear at the shadowed edge of the magelight as Peladus continues into the yard: another coil of mouldering rope, broken crates, a barrel with rusted hoops, and more scattered timber.

Midias follows Pendrake.Alone, Peladus enters the alleyway, passing between two wooden storage sheds with sides of rough overlapped planking. Ahead, he sees two stacks of similar planks laid carefully within trestles. As he reaches the far end of the alley, he sees that it opens up into a...

Pendrake heads off to the rescue.From somewhere along the alleyway beyond Peladus, there comes a prolonged clattering sound as of a pile of wood tumbling over.OOG: Midias...

Quozen strikes out blindly, apparently making contact once. Gillin makes a valiant effort to assist, but his morning star is too heavy for his aged arms. OOG: nat 1 for Gillin, poor fellow.Quozen strikes out blindly, making contact once, but the creature's flesh is resilient. Gillin makes a...

OOC: couple of thoughts. Damn, we'll miss you (unless you recover your enthusiasm). For an uninterested energyless final wrap-up posting, that's some beautiful writing. A pity about all the loose ends, though... the house filled with corpses and grigs, still left unransacked, and Careless...

Peladus and Ngikhnit move off purposefully to gather the fishing net. In the south of the Square, right beside Quozen and the old man, a creature slips from out of the shadows. The one lying dead nearby was a spreading pancake or lumpish mass, shifting from one form to another, occasionally...
