Hal's blade slices through both zombies, wiping the last of them out.

Neither of Lindus's arrows manages to hit anything other than cold stone floor.

The guard lunges at Hal with his halberd and misses by only inches.

The high priest raises his arms and with some muttered words sends a bolt of necrotic magic at Sena. The cleric is not strong enough to resist, takes 10 damage, and becomes immobilized (save ends).

The wight also sends a wave of necrotic magic at Sena and the cleric takes another 5 damage.

Temple Finale round 7

Focusing their attention on the nearby guard, Hal does 12 damage and Lindus does 11. The guard is now bleeding heavily from a gash in his side.

The guard takes a step back and then swings his halberd at Hal. The halberd tears through Hal's armor and smashes into his kneecap for 7 damage. Hal is now marked by the guard.

The high priest sends another bolt corrupted magic at Sena, but this time she is strong enough to withstand the dark energy.

A surge of dark magic shoots from the wight's hand and Sena is not quick enough to avoid it. She takes 9 necrotic damage and becomes immobilized, save ends.

Initiative: Status
Hal: 51/53, marked
Lindus: 44/46
Red Guard: down 23, marked, HQ, bloodied
Avonathemon: down 49, HQ, -2 to hit
Wight: no damage
->Sena: 35/48, immobilized
All Zombies: dead

OOC: A few questions -

1 - Because he was marked, the guard should have provoked an attack from Hal when he left F7. If he shifted, he'd provoke a Combat Challenge attack. If he moved, he'd provoke a Combat Superiority attack (both p76 of the PHB).

2 - The guard should not have been able to shift through the benches, as they're difficult terrain.

3. When Lindus applied Hunter's Quarry to the Guard, that removes if from Avonathemon.

I'm going to assume that the guard will have actually decided not to move, so as not to provoke the attack from Hal. Actions to come...

 

[garyh]

Sena shoots a ray of holy light at the wight, searing the creature's undead flesh, but is unable to shake the effects of the creature's own attack.

Standard action - Sacred Flame against Wight.

Sacred Flame against Wight (1d20 6=24, 1d6 4=10)

Hits Reflex 26 against Wight for 10 radiant damage (plus any radiant vulnerability), and on a hit Lindus gains 3 temp HP (will assume that for Lindus' next stat block).
