Braevil Talisker, Cleric of Meda

Brae considers the situation, even as his spiritual quarterstaff swings again at the beholder, bouncing off the creature's armored hide. Knowing they had to reach the creature to defeat it, the cleric steps close to his knight companion. Braevil again calls upon the power of Meda and reaches a hand out to touch Alarion, bestowing upon him the power of flight. "Take the fight to the beast, Alarion."



AC: 21 (touch 10); Hit Points: 50/50
Spiritual Weapon: duration 5 6 rounds, damage 1d8+2, attack bonus +8, attack vrs beholder 20

Moru suddenly falls to the ground and begins to snore softly as the battle rages.

More wounds appear on Berfubble, but he continues to face the terrible foe bravely.

Alarion and Thea resist the effects of the eye rays though a wave of fear passes through Thea and Alarion feels a strange, but passing urge to join Darius in saving everyone from the terrible water.
 

Still waiting on Jonas...

Alarion's righteous anger shields him from the monster's macabre magicks. He lifts his shield and hefts an iron-tipped javelin from the quiver at his back. "Have at thee, foul miscreant!", he shouts, as he releases the spear.

SoulFetter's huge bow creaks menacingly as he draws the 4' arrow back to his ear. The missile screams through the air and parts the beholder's eyestalks as it passes harmlessly above the creature's grotesque body.

Jonas?

Drueglefish continues to flee and you can hear his screams as he gets further and further away.

Raul reloads his masterwork light crossbow and tries again, this time shooting high.

Thea had just struggled to her feet when the beholder's ray struck her- but whatever terrible effect it might have intended, it was no match for her formidable willpower. Shrugging off the arcane energy, she countered with a spell of her own, rasping out a few syllables of Sylvanoptera and twisting her hand in a rapid throwing motion. Almost instantly, the air behind the beholder exploded in a burst of golden light.

Moru, focus lost in frustration that his cloud failed to incapacitate the beholder, lacks the mental fortitude to resist when he's hit with a ray from the creature's eyestalk.

Water Elemental?

"I'll save you Jonas!" shouts Darius as he attempts to drag Jonas onto land and away from the water. "This raging water is not safe for us!"

Brae considers the situation, even as his spiritual quarterstaff swings again at the beholder, bouncing off the creature's armored hide. Knowing they had to reach the creature to defeat it, the cleric steps close to his knight companion. Braevil again calls upon the power of Meda and reaches a hand out to touch Alarion, bestowing upon him the power of flight. "Take the fight to the beast, Alarion."

Berfubble?

Eye Tyrant?

OOC: Jonas was pulled to safety by Darius, but Darius continues to interfere obviously under some strange compulsion from the beholder's ray. Jonas can only manage to get off one arrow, due to Darius' efforts to protect him from the water. I'll make it the good one. Post coming this afternoon.

Alarion's righteous anger shields him from the monster's macabre magicks. He lifts his shield and hefts an iron-tipped javelin from the quiver at his back. "Have at thee, foul miscreant!", he shouts, as he releases the spear.

SoulFetter's huge bow creaks menacingly as he draws the 4' arrow back to his ear. The missile screams through the air and parts the beholder's eyestalks as it passes harmlessly above the creature's grotesque body.

Jonas, now safely out of the water, manages to get one arrow off despite Darius' persistant 'help'. It flies true and hits the Beholder.

Drueglefish continues to flee and you can hear his screams as he gets further and further away.

Raul reloads his masterwork light crossbow and tries again, this time shooting high.

Thea had just struggled to her feet when the beholder's ray struck her- but whatever terrible effect it might have intended, it was no match for her formidable willpower. Shrugging off the arcane energy, she countered with a spell of her own, rasping out a few syllables of Sylvanoptera and twisting her hand in a rapid throwing motion. Almost instantly, the air behind the beholder exploded in a burst of golden light.

Moru, focus lost in frustration that his cloud failed to incapacitate the beholder, lacks the mental fortitude to resist when he's hit with a ray from the creature's eyestalk.

A tiny stream of muddy water fountains up from the pool to strike the beholder. While it is small, looking more like a stream of urine than anything else, it does seem to startle the beholder a little.

"I'll save you Jonas!" shouts Darius as he attempts to drag Jonas onto land and away from the water. "This raging water is not safe for us!"

Brae considers the situation, even as his spiritual quarterstaff swings again at the beholder, bouncing off the creature's armored hide. Knowing they had to reach the creature to defeat it, the cleric steps close to his knight companion. Braevil again calls upon the power of Meda and reaches a hand out to touch Alarion, bestowing upon him the power of flight. "Take the fight to the beast, Alarion."

The wizard gets off another spell and unleashes a brace of rays (1d20+6=25, 1d20+6=22) of his own at the Eye Tyrrant. They leave seared marks on the Beholder.

He isn't out of the fight yet thought and rays (1d20+12=14, 1d20+12=28, 1d20+12=15, 1d20+12=17, 1d20+12=23)] hit Alarion, Darius, Jonas, Berfubble and Thea (dc18 will saves please). Some spell hits Berfubble as well, but he seems to shrug off its effects.

Actions for round 4?
 

Attachments


The mystical quarterstaff continues beating on the beholder beast, but again fails to do any damage to the creature's incredibly tough body.

Damnable aberrations, thinks Brae, calling upon Meda's help again to summon more aid. The cleric shakes his head, grasps the holy symbol around his neck and calls for divine aid.

A cloud of fine silvery mist appears behind the beholder, and in a surge of radiance emerges a a beast half horse and half eagle, with feathers and hide of gold and silver, glittering in its brilliance as it brings its sharp beak and talons to bear against the enemy.



AC: 21 (touch 10); Hit Points: 50/50
Spiritual Weapon: duration 4 5,6 rounds, damage 1d8+2, attack bonus +8, attack vrs beholder 18

Cast DMM: extend Summon Monster III, summoning a Celestial Hipogriff behind the beholder (hopefully will provide flanking for Alarion, if he ever gets to the beholder).
