Message: <blockquote data-quote="Nonlethal Force" data-source="post: 2796485" data-attributes="member: 35788">END OF COMBAT:Cassient's wand strike sends forth two more magical bolts.  The energy bolts weave through the traffic ahead of them.  The one bolt flashes just to the right of Yavarin's face, over Geeo's head, and then bends between Eva and Ray to strike the gnoll.  The second bolt of magical energy slashes throught he air just to Kiera's right and defies gravity as it slides up the wall to pass over Ray and then down upon its target.  The gnoll looks caught off guard by the magical attack as if he had assumed himself sto be safe from an attack from Cassient.Geeo's maul hurtle's high over his head and strikes the gnoll square on the front of its chest.  In what can be described only as an absolutely gorey death, the head of the maul forces a huge hole through the gnoll's body, pinning it to the wall.  As Geeo removes the end of his weapon, a very large hole in the gnoll's body is revealed.  A surprised look still exists on the gnoll's face, but the eyes clearly revela that all life force within his body is gone - as are most of his internal organs.  The dead body stand eerily as the gnoll's knees are locked and the wall is keeping it in an upright position. Geeo:[Sblock]Needless to say, that was a nat 20 confirmed crit roll with excellent damage rolled on top of it.  Wow.[/Sblock]Battlefield Map:[Sblock][Code]|  |---|       |E3| R|---|12||GK||Y | (-120)|  ||  || C|[/Code]1,3=Deceased gnolls2=Dying gnoll[/Sblock]After the combat stops and it becomes apparent that there are no other immediate threats - at least none that desire to make themselves known - the party can see that the tunnel straight ahead continues straight for as far as Eva's bulsey lantern goes.  The tunnel to the right goes straight for about 50 feet and then banks hard to the right once more.  The walls are all what appear to be naturally made rock.  There do not appear to be any significant hiding places in the visible area.Kiera's spell does a considerable job healing Eva.Eva, Kiera:[Sblock]OOC: Eva gains 20 HP back.  A heal check by Kiera reveals that Eva is at 32/40 HP by my records.  As a side note, in my PbP games I always give a free heal check as a free action with each each successfully cast healing spell, Ferrix.  I find it helps game flow.  Of course, you have to make the check to get the info - but that will never be a problem for Kiera.[/Sblock]Ray is able to make an attempt to stop the gnoll's death, and through the amazing and glorious power of Pelor the gnolls condition stabalizes in spite of Ray's lack of training in the art of healing people.</blockquote>
