Heroes of the Worlds- The Hunt Begins

[Kalanyr]

Yuna looks over and notices that the majority of the text is written in Celestial, small changes have been made to certain text that changes some of the letters to a language resembling Infernal slightly, but it seems to be a very archaic style.

Does Yuna investigate more?

 

[reapersaurus]

"So, what's it say?" Deedlit asks, very anxious to know what it is.

Ash says "It probably says 'Death to All Ye Who Enter Here' or something like that.

Or maybe 'Eat at Joe's?'

Eh - I never was good at cryptic writings.

I wonder if this thing opens with a command?"

*Ash steps back, pondering, trying to remember...
Then steps up, puffing himself up and saying - *

"Klattuuu... Veradaa.....Ni -*" and stops suddenly.

*His face contorts while trying to remember the 3 words*

 

[Sollir Furryfoot]

[color=sky blue]Yuna investigates further, wary for trickery, "I can recognize some of the letters...let me try to examine it further."[/color]

 

[Kalanyr]

The Celestial Interpretation Reads:

"In This Place Seek Peace And Rest From the Foes That Trouble Thee"

The Archaic Infernal as best you can make out says

"In This Place S.... D... And Rest From The World"

As Yuna reads the last part of the message there is a dark flash and a loathsome corpse rises from the ground, its eyes burn burn red with hellish fire as it lurches up.

 

[Darkwolf]

Filia readies her laser breath should the corpse move to attack.

 

[Dalamar]

Voice filled with sarcasm
"Lovely..."

 

[Deedlit]

Corpse, if you attempt to harm us, we are more then capable of killing you.

 

[reapersaurus]

Ash wastes NO time in grasping the stock of his shotgun and laying into the Deadite with both barrels.
He was close by, watching their backs, so if he's within close range to the undead, he'll let loose with 3 shots : Shotgun Fanning.
"He-YAHHH!"

 

[Creamsteak]

"And only ash would still think of that course of action first."

Samanosuke stands guard around Deadlit, Dalamar, and Blackmage while Filia watches the door and Ash goes berserk.

 

[Kalanyr]

The blazing corpse moves when Ash fires his 3 shots at it, amazingly the later two of the bursts of ammunition bounce of a strange running steely substance on its firey bone (Nat 20, Hit, No Crit, Miss , Miss) and stumbles to its feet hissing a strange rhyme as a blazing sword of fire appears in its hand. As it rises you realise its speed is far greater than would be expected from a burning corpse, especially one that seems to be coated with molten metal. The corpse seems largely unphased by the large pile of metal slugs stuck in its bones.

" Ancient Warrior Doomed To Burn
Watched the Fire Churn
Came the Time to Repay
The Debt Earnt within his Day
Guard This Door I was Bid
But Within the Noble I Hid
Foolish Ones feel the Wrath
of Poor Burning Nath. "

Filia's sudden burst of laser like breath seems more effective leaving a noticeable charring on the creature.

With a blinding blur of speed the strange metallic firey corpse hurls a bolt of fire at Ash, which strikes Ash searing him for a massive amount of damage. (Ranged Touch Attack vs AC 15,4 Rolled, Hit, 6d6 (21) Fire Damage).
