[QUOTE="covaithe, post: 5034750, member: 46559"] [U][B]Round 6[/B][/U] Kylek marches back into the necrotic pall to face Uganon. Misty wings beat with terrible fury, lifting Kylek away towards the fallen cleric, and pummeling Uganon off of his feet. Ba-Ka-Thet places a hand on Batin and sends both of them twisting through space to appear atop the wall, next to Uganon. The monk, ready for this, immediately lashes out with a blazing fist, battering the prone warlock. Batin, no stranger to teleportation magic, is only moments behind. His sword cuts out twice, a flicker of barely visible movement, but each time, burning pain wracks his joints from the warlock's potent curse, spoiling his aim. Massacre urges Lucy aloft again, and sends another chilling blast down on Uganon. Kalas attempts to fling his shield at Uganon, but the unwieldy projectile falls short, hitting the wall before coming back to Kalas. Sarenax, helpless, lies still. Out of the soul-sucking mists, the figure of the last undead naga undulates forth. It sways hypnotically, invoking ancient magic to call on the perverse allure of death, pulling all those nearby. Ba-Ka-Thet and Kylek shrug off the lure easily, but Batin stumbles, nearly falling off the wall before throwing himself flat. Sarenax, helpless to resist the pull, is dragged along the ground, directly into the square-edged pit shaft that gapes open in the ground. Silently he falls out of sight, and a muffled thump several moments later announces his landing. Uganon cackles, springing to his feet, but does not waste time on further threats. Heedless of the blows raining in on him, he hurls magic at Batin, blasting him again and again with foul, sapping curses. The last prowler charges out of the mists, launching itself at Kylek, but the dragonborn adroitly dodges despite being surprised. [sblock=ooc]Re Massacre's shroud: Yes, Uganon took 5 necrotic (he's living) from Massacre's shroud at the beginning of his turn, but he resisted all of it. Kylek hits Uganon for 29 cold, and knocks him prone. BKT enters the Thanatos pall and is hit for 11 necrotic. He teleports onto the wall in U11 and hits Uganon for 11 radiant and gives vulnerable 5 radiant TENT (BKT). Batin is also teleported to U12, atop the wall. Batin takes 15 from TP. He takes another 5 necrotic each time he attacks Uganon, since he's cursed. That's twice this round. Marks Uganon (overwriting Kalas' mark), and misses with both attacks. Massacre flies up 3 squares to get line of sight, and uses chilling cloud, centered on Uganon: [URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124321]1d20+26+2=35[/URL] vs Fort hits for 25+5/2=15 cold damage, and enemies take -2 to attacks in the zone. Kalas regens 5. He can't go to N-O 8-9 without squeezing, since the wall covers N8. I've left you in L7-M8 for now, since it doesn't affect your ranged attack. He takes 5 necrotic from the curse for attacking Uganon, and resists all of it. The attack misses. Sarenax takes 10 ongoing p&n, adn fails his death save. What about the save vs. ongong damage? I'll let you roll that, since I don't think it affects my actions this turn. Naga 3 uses Death lure, close burst 3 vs. Will. Misses BKT ([URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124322]1d20+24=34[/URL]), hits Batin ([URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124323]1d20+24=38[/URL]), misses Kylek ([URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124324]1d20+24=30[/URL]), and hits Sarenax ([URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124325]1d20+24+2=36[/URL]). Batin and Sarenax take [URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124326]2d6+7=14[/URL] necrotic, are marked (se) and are pulled 1. Batin gets a save to fall prone instead: [URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124327]1d20+1=11[/URL] succeeds; no falling damage.

Oh, and Batin is immobilized (se). Uganon fails to save against immobilized ([URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124336]1d20+2-5=6[/URL], not bothering with the second roll) Prowler 3 charges Kylek: [URL=http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3635#124335]1d20+28+1=31[/URL].
