Combat, round 4
Round 3 update in post 1386 above
The two turned ghouls continue to flee.
Coraine steps forward, trampling the now-inanimate corpse of his foe, and attacks again. He easily forces down the nausea he feels at the stench of these new ghouls, and swings his axe fiercely. As mighty as his blow is, though, the target once again elludes the strike, avoiding harm. Then, one of the ghouls leap at him, clawing and biting. The undead hisses in frustration, though, unable to penetrate the paladin's fine armor.
The second ghouls savagely claws and snaps at Dara. It too fails to find flesh as its strikes are turned away by the barbarian woman's mithril shirt.
Ragnok ignores the horrible smell and charges heedlessly past Dara, drawing an attack from the nearest ghoul. Somehow, its teeth penetrate the dwarf's armor. Though the wound is minor, the dwarf is unable to overcome the paralysis that quickly comes over his body, leaving him helpless.
The pudgy halfling springs forward into the room, his muscles back under his control. He wings a dagger overhand through the doorway, striking the undead creature, but failing to penetrate its dried, hardened flesh.
"Smell that?" Kurt asks. "That's the stench of the dead fearing death," he adds with satisfaction. "Always happens when they get 'the treatment'." Kurt allows Coraine, Ragnok and Dara to pursue the fleeing ghouls. Sheathing his longsword, Kurt waits to shepherd Otto and Verdis after the others.
But hearing the battle joined in the next room, Kurt moves to get a better view. Seeing Ragnok in trouble, Kurt decides to intervene. "Oh, some more of you needing the treatment!" he utters, before grasping his holy symbol of Heironeous and purging the ghouls. They scream in pain, but stay on their feet.
Excited with his success Verdis lets the crossbow hang from the shoulder strap and makes the arcane gestures necessary to let fly a blast of Eldritch energy at the ghoul who just took a bite out of Ragnok. The blast of energy narrowly misses the target.
Dara is set back for a moment as she sees Ragnok fall victim to the ghoul's poison. She steps further into the room, as she swings her falchion at the closest undead once more, keeping her blade between herself and her opponent. Her falchion tears dead flesh, opening a gaping hole in the creature's side. It glares at her evilly and starts to hiss, and then stubmles and collapses.
Round 4 actions? Otto is no longer paralyzed.
