Ghourra shrugs off the effects of the necrotic ooze and then shifts into the area the rotters vacated. Tossing her weapon at the injured dripping zombie, Ghourra impales it.

"I hate having to use such methods, but hey, whatever works."
With an incredible display of fast movement, Bellegon throws one of his rods in the air, pulls a dagger out from somewhere and stabs it into the zombie which staggers under the impact of the shadowy blade. He then returns the blade on his belt just in time to catch the falling rod.
All this took some effort so he didn't move, but he remains in front of the mage guarding him.
"We really should organize better so we two don't get isolated. Deimos, can you do something about those two near Brondin? You know push them down into the hole or something? Brondin, get back closer to us. I cannot get a good shot in with us so mingled up with them."

As Ghourra's hammer is ripped free from the oozing corpse, black pitch pours out of its ruptured body, flooding the nearby floor.
Brondin finds himself surrounded by a trio of zombies. The largest of the three latches onto the dwarf with a surprisingly strong grasp while the other two pummel him.
The zombie knocked away by Bellegon returns to confront the warlock, driving a rusty blade into the drow's arm.
The rats, having been dispersed by the adventurers' spells, split their focus. Half the swarm scurries after Deimos, biting into him with needle-sharp teeth. However, those that do harm the arcanist burst into flames seconds later. The remainder of the vermin continue to press Tana, but she keeps her feet away from their disease-ridden jaws.
The last zombie slowly looks from the dissolving puddle that used to be its likeness to Ghourra. Another handful of life-draining pitch is thrown across the room, and Ghourra feels her strength being sapped once again.
[sblock=Actions and Status]Rotters 2 and 8 move up and attack Brondin. Both hit with a 20 and 29 vs AC, 5 damage each.
Dread Zombie 1 takes 10 damage from the sphere. Then it charges Bellegon, hitting AC 29 for 7 damage.
Dread Zombie 2 takes 10+2 damage from the sphere, moves up and tries to grab Brondin. Crit! Too bad this attack does no damage. Brondin is grabbed, and takes a -5 penalty to escape rolls.
Corspe Rat Swarm 1 moves into the difficult terrain and attacks Deimos, hitting AC 26 for 7 damage, and ongoing 5 poison. In return, Deimos deals 8 damage. Oh, Infernal Wrath is actually a close burst power. Make that 18 damage.
Corpse Rat Swarm 2 charges Tana, but misses, and also takes 5 damage for its trouble.
Corruption Corpse 1 attacks Ghourra, hitting Reflex 24 for 10 necrotic damage and Ghourra is weakened, save ends.

Complexity: 1 (requires 4 successes before 3 failures).
Primary Skills: Arcana, Athletics, Dungeoneering, Religion, Thievery.
- Arcana (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character either attempts to raise a minor ward against the undead, or attempts to suppress the beckoning call of the crystal.
- Athletics (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character realizes finesse is no trade for quick and effective physical labor. The character pounds nails, carries heavy objects, and uses brute strength shove invading zombies back through the doors.
- Dungeoneering (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character’s knowledge of stone and underground construction lets him or her see how the temple might best be fortified using the meager supplies available.
- Religion (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character offers a prayer to Onatar, asking him to lend his strength to the characters’ endeavor and slow the tide of undead seeking to further desecrate his temple.
- Thievery (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character has spent a lifetime getting into places he or she is not wanted. It’s not terribly difficult to turn that concept on its head and use those skills to craft sturdy barricades.
- Perception (DC 15, minor action, no successes): The character’s keen eyes help more skilled companions find the best materials to aid in fortifying the temple. A successful check grants a +2 bonus to one ally’s next Dungeoneering or Thievery check made as part of this skill challenge, provided that the check is made on that ally's next turn.

Tana
After reinforcing the wards where she stood, Tana sidestepped slightly so she could destroy one of the zombies as well as the half of the rat swarm that had focused on her with a single sword spell. When the bolts of energy left her rapier, the swarm of rats collapsed, as did the zombie adjacent to both her and Brondin.
"Now I can work on patching up the universe." She said, and reinforced the wards they had set earlier. She hardly noticed the poison wearing off.

As the zombie hits the warlock, shadowy fire erupts from him, burning it somewhat.
"Don't you just hate when these things focus on you?"
drow asks the mage rethoricaly.
He drops the rod again, behing himself this time, slashes at the zombie with a dagger. This time, shadows engulfing the dagger are more intense and burning with inner fire enhancing their already deadly effect.
"Feel the pain I felt on my binding." he shouts pointing his little weapon at the zombie. Zombie staggers under psychic assault, but does not fall. Still, mage's sphere should burn it as it barely stands.
He moves away from the dropped rod and gets behind the burning sphere for protection, drawing shadows as he goes.

All allies gain +2 to damage rolls TENT (Rune of Mending)
Brondin squirms in the zombie’s grasp. ”Release me, foul beast, or ye shall feel me hammer!” Even while grabbed, Brondin is able to free his hammer hand, and brings the weapon down and hits the ground near his feet, causing the ground to ripple. ”Yer next!”, he says to the other zombie not grabbing him.

Ghourra speaks some words of encouragement towards Deimos, taking a moment to make light of their situation.
"With you around, we don't have to worry about dying by the dead or the cold."
She then decides to lumber forward, occupying the oozing dead creature so that the rest of her companions can focus on the other monsters.
She brings her weapon down upon the undead, it's radiance cutting through the necrotic flesh, which boils away, but she still cannot get her full weight behind the blow. With the radiance bathing her, the necrotic ooze on her own skin begins to melt away.

[sblock=Immediate Interrupt]If Ghourra takes damage while already bloodied, she will use her immediate interrupt to spend 2 healing surges. (Resilience of Stone + Cloak of the Walking Wounded).
If unable to take an immediate action, will use her Dwarven Armor instead as a free action. (Assuming she is still standing after the damage.)[/sblock]

The zombie that latched onto Brondin draws its sword back with its free hand and prepares to run the dwarf through. Before it can, however, Tana's magics whisk it away from its target.
The other remaining zombie, its flesh drying out and cracking where Ghourra struck it, attempts to avenge itself upon the mul. Ghourra is able to fend off the blows.
[sblock=Actions and Status]At the start of their turns, Tana and Deimos were attacked by the swarms. Deimos was missed while Tana was hit with a 24 vs AC for 10 damage. Tana is bloodied.
Dread Zombie 2 shifts down and attacks Brondin, hitting AC 26 for 9 damage. Or rather, doesn't, because Tana's Dimensional Vortex hits Will 26 and teleports the zombie away. Son of Meepo, I put him next to the Flaming Sphere in G14, but if you want him somewhere else within 5 squares of I14, please us know.
Corruption Corpse 1 shifts and attacks Ghourra, but misses.
Be aware, Dread Zombie 2 is not necessarily in G14.

[sblock=Shoring Up the Defenses]Level: 5
Complexity: 1 (requires 4 successes before 3 failures).
Primary Skills: Arcana, Athletics, Dungeoneering, Religion, Thievery.
- Arcana (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character either attempts to raise a minor ward against the undead, or attempts to suppress the beckoning call of the crystal.
- Athletics (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character realizes finesse is no trade for quick and effective physical labor. The character pounds nails, carries heavy objects, and uses brute strength shove invading zombies back through the doors.
- Dungeoneering (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character’s knowledge of stone and underground construction lets him or her see how the temple might best be fortified using the meager supplies available.
- Religion (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character offers a prayer to Onatar, asking him to lend his strength to the characters’ endeavor and slow the tide of undead seeking to further desecrate his temple.
- Thievery (DC 20, standard action, 1 success, no maximum): The character has spent a lifetime getting into places he or she is not wanted. It’s not terribly difficult to turn that concept on its head and use those skills to craft sturdy barricades.
- Perception (DC 15, minor action, no successes): The character’s keen eyes help more skilled companions find the best materials to aid in fortifying the temple. A successful check grants a +2 bonus to one ally’s next Dungeoneering or Thievery check made as part of this skill challenge, provided that the check is made on that ally's next turn.
The combat and skill challenge will be run concurrently once again. There needs to be at least one primary skill check per round, or the group will be given a failure.
