CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk ALPHA Game (ToEE)

[Rhun]

Verdis continues to back away, firing another blast at the ghoul. Again, the undead creature dodges the attack, as it pursues the warlock and claws at him. Verdis' luck holds, and he escapes the ghoul's assault without harm

Marco holds his dagger before him, and again finds a ghoul quite near to him. He strikes it with his blade, carving another chunk of flesh from it before stepping back out of range. He briefly considers the wounds that are sported by his companions, but judging them to be superficial at best, he bides his time until he can safely attend to them.

The second ghoul continues its assault on Dara, but the skilled warrior avoids the thing's nails and teeth. Keeping her falchion between herself and the ghul, Dara continues to attack, but remains careful, seeing how nasty the poisonous claws of these creatures are. Her blade again strikes true, and drops the undead to the ground in a pile of dessicated flesh.

Coraine keeps a close eye on the stinking thing in front of him as he swings his shield into position, then strikes out, attempting to cleave its torso in twain. The ghoul's attention still focused on Verdis, Coraine's axe cuts through flesh, muscle and sinew, and the creature sprawls to the ground, dead again.

Before you can even catch your breath, though, two more creatures enter from the northern door. They appear the same as those you just dispatched, though you catch a whiff of an incredibly foul odor emanating from their bodies. They first speaks as they approach. "Meat for supper this evening, yessss..."




Sorry I kinda continued with the next round right away, just so things wouldn't bog down.

Dara

Dara awaits the move of the new undead, carefully watching their steps.


OOC: Delay to beginning of next round.

 

[Scotley]

Verdis

The warlock continues his dance with the ghoul, stepping back and releasing his arcane might at the undead once more.

 

[Boddynock]

"Ha!"

Coraine utters a bark of satisfaction as he sees the abomination crumple to the ground. As he turns to check on Dara and the others, his nose wrinkles in disgust at the sudden foul odour. He turns to ready himself for the advance of the two newcomers. Recognizing that the stench of these creatures heralds a new threat, he calls upon the power of the god, and seeks to strike down the nearest when it comes in range.

[sblock=OOC]Smite Evil: attack +11, damage 1d8+7[/sblock]

OOC:
[sblock]Obviously, Otto can't do anything for the next 3 rounds unless he is somehow freed. I'll keep checking up on this thread though.[/sblock]

 

[Manzanita]

Two Axe tries to move his eyes to see this new threat. Beads of sweat drip down his face.

 

[Rhun]

Turning to face the new threat, the warlock steps to the side for a clean shot and releases his arcane might at the undead once more. The thing partially doges the blase, and Verdis manages to only graze the creature.

Two Axe tries to move his eyes to see this new threat. Beads of sweat drip down his face.

Marco moves up behind Otto, his dagger still held in hand, still providing his companions with tactical advice for engaging this foes.

Ragnok struggles against the paralysis holding him on the floor, but to no avail. His limbs fail to respond.

"Ha!" Coraine utters a bark of satisfaction as he sees the abomination crumple to the ground. As he turns to check on Dara and the others, his nose wrinkles in disgust at the sudden foul odour. He turns to ready himself for the advance of the two newcomers.

One of the new opponents charges straight at Coraine, leaping through the air to land upon the holy warrior, and biting deeply into in his shoulder. Blood spurts from the ragged gash, even as the paladin fights against the paralysis threatening to overwhelm his body. By sheer force of will or perhaps divine grace, Coraine shurgs off the insidious nature of the creature's attack. Recognizing that the stench of these creatures heralds a new threat, but managing to force back the urge to retch, he calls upon the power of the god, and seeks to strike down the beast with his axe. The axe cuts a huge gash in the thing's corrupted flesh, but fails to take it down.

The second approaches more cautiously.

Dara awaits the move of the new undead, carefully watching their steps.

[Thanee]

Dara

“Get them!” Dara shouts, as she snakes through the space between Otto and Marcus, hops over the fallen ghoul, and runs around the two new opponents in a wide circle building momentum for her attack. She swings her falchion in a wide arc against the undead, Coraine had attacked already.

[Scotley]

Verdis

"Gods! That smell," protests Verdis trying to hold his nose and call upon his magic at the same time. He aims another blast at the undead he wounded.

 

[Boddynock]

Swallowing the nausea which threatened to unman him, Coraine returns to the fray. Death and destruction await the enemies of the Invincible.

[sblock=OOC]Attack whichever of the smelly ghouls remains standing.
Attack +8; damage 1d8+4[/sblock]
