Endur's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft

[Rhun]

Skorl continues to stand in place, neither the pain of his wounds nor the shouts of his companions doing anything to break the dazing effects of the horrible, unearthly wail that echoes in his ears.

 

[Pyrex]

Ashlyn continues swinging at the foul creature clawing at Ismark & herself, hoping to cut it down before it turns on any of her stunned companions.

 

[industrygothica]

Willow follows her fire elemental around the corner with her crossbow at the ready. If she can get a good shot off at whatever's doing the screaming, she does. She doesn't go so far in that she can't make a quick retreat back out into the main section, however.

 

[Legildur]

Ismark grimaces as the undead filth strikes him. He starts to swing his longsword in a long overhand blow in retribution, but only completes half the action as his muscles stiffen and freeze, leaving him unable to act.[sblock=laugh]Jack is what? Dazed, Sickened, Paralyzed and afflicted with Ghoul Fever? LOL! And that's three natural ones that Endur has rolled for Ismark so far this combat! Two of those for saves![/sblock]

 

[Endur]

Round 5

The horrible wail continues. Jack, Skorl, Cedric, and Allesandra remain dazed. Jack recovers from being paralyzed, but Ismark remains paralyzed.

The remaining hairless foul humanoids with mottled skin and decaying flesh claw and bite the party members within reach as they grasp for the flesh of the living. The party is no longer surrounded beneath the earth. The creatures that had been attacking Jack have fallen.

[sblock=Endur]Can you tell me exactly what Willow sees when she rounds the corner behind her fire elemental, and if whatever it is the fire elemental is attacking is immune to fire (I ask because I didn't see a reflex save from whatever it is in the post after it hit the elemental, so I'm just curious).[/sblock]

 

[Legildur]

Ismark rages internally in a fruitless attempt to restart his frozen muscles.

 

[Endur]

When Willow went around the corner, she beheld a horrible looking foul humanoid, a monsterous being of feminine origin, aflifcted with the same undead state as the rest of the foul humanoids in the tunnel. The monsterous being had burned her claws by attacking the elemental.

 

[Le Noir Faineant]

"We will be victorious!"

Dareios words are more a barking than human sounds, as he smashes his sword into the undead monster right before him... Nikolai's old cloak might well be covered with black ghoul blood over and over by now...

 

[hafrogman]

Cedric continues to double over, clutching his hands to his ears. The blood pounding mercilessly in his skull as he helplessly watches his comrades as they battle their foes.
