Message: <blockquote data-quote="Aust Thale" data-source="post: 7201360" data-attributes="member: 6804768">Vale, A Priestly Dwarf Among the Undead....~ This strategy calls for a group effort...~Vale's first dwarven instinct is to wade into the melee; nothing would give him greater pleasure than dispatching these poor creatures.  Mindless undead could certainly be deadly, but they were hardly there of their own accord.  The dwarven cleric would most prefer dispatching the evil creature who created them.  Holding his axe in his left hand, Vale opens his hands wide and takes as much as possible of the meager light from the center of the well, and prays to the dwarven pantheon, particularly the arch-deity Clangeddin Silverbeard.He chants in formal, high dwarven, "By all that is holy and upright, be gone!  By all that is holy and upright, away wretched creatures.  Release your souls to the afterlife, and be DONE." And holding his right hand toward the foul creatures advancing on the party, he nearly goes to his knee, the hilt of the axe biting the ground, the holy symbol within the back of the axe facing the creatures, blade toward them, flat."Be gone foul creatures, in Silverbeard's name!"[ooc]  Vale's priestly garments permit turning at 6th level:  #1d20+3 = 5; Turning Level = 4th.  Total Hit Dice Turned (collective): 16.  All undead within the 16 HD that have 3 or less hit dice are destroyed vs. turned. [/ooc][gm]Good job, you're getting the hang of this!Skeletons = 1 HD; Zombies = 2 HD; You turn 4HD creatures, which means you can DESTROY creatures of 2 HD or less. There are 3 Skeletons (3 HD) and 2 Zombies (4 HD) for a total of 7 HD worth of creatures. You affected 16 total HD, which means that you utterly destroy the remaining undead.[/gm][gm]As Vale pronounces the judgment of Clangeddin, the undead creatures are bathed in holy light, and burned to ash in a single instant.COMBAT HAS ENDED. But the story continues... i.e., when I have some more time, I will award xp, and resolve a few loose ends, thereby wrapping up Chapter 3. STAY TUNED!! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />[/gm]</blockquote>
