Torellan continues to use his sharp sword to slash the Huge demon’s vulnerable spots. Two of his strikes penetrate deeply into Eglur's tough skin.

Narcelia strikes at the shadows surrounding the wounded Vrock twice with her longsword. Her third strike hits solidly, but does not penetrate the demon’s hard skin.

Carcelon slashes at Eglur several times with her rapier and misses.

Dariel hits Eglur solidly twice. With his right hand, the frost bladed sword penetrates one of the earlier wounds on the massive demon. With the sharp sword in his left hand he hit the spot behind Eglur’s left knee yet again, causing the Demon to howl even louder.

Yyssiryl tries and fails to break the Vrock’s pin.

Krecil strikes Eglur three times with his twin rapiers. The Frost and Fire generated from the magical runes along his blades does not seem to affect the demon, but the wounds caused by the blades are real enough.

Marckarius drops his flail and his shield, presses his hands against his ears, and reels from the room in pain.

Ki’Willis reads a scroll and five bolts of Dark Energy fly from her hand and strike the Vrock that is grappling Yyssiryl.

Quertus casts a spell that summons a Fiendish Constrictor snake next to the grapple.

The Dark Elves in the hallway fire the hand crossbows at Eglur, but he still doesn't seem to notice the tiny bolts.

Eglur howls in despair. Words form in your mind, “Yyssiryl! I shall have my revenge!” Then the form of the Glabrezu seems to shimmer and fades away. The Vrock grappling Yyssiryl releases its hold and wavers and disappears. The wounded Vrock in front of Narcelia wavers and disappears.

(From Quertus’ study of the Abyss and spellcraft, he recognizes that they used a spell-like ability similar to teleport to leave and believes that the demons did not travel back to the Abyss).

The combat is over. The enemy is fled. Other than Marckarius who left the room in pain, the members of house Millithor appear to have suffered only minor nicks and scratches from the exploding glass of the mirror. However, Yyssiryl lies on the ground near death, her clothing and skin tangled in blood. Who can say what has happened to Reftael in the Coliseum of Maermidrya?

A mad look fills Torellan's eyes, and he attacks Dariel who was standing beside him. After a savage strike to the gut, Dariel is down on the ground bleeding to death. After pulling his sword out of Dariel, Torellan slashed backward with his sword, nearly beheading Krecil.

(Marckarius can act normally ... for this round).

Quertus curses again, but isn't really that angry; He's alive, isn't he? His attention turns to more imminent threat: Torellan. He orders the snake he summoned to "restraint" Torellan, but not to kill him...

He then digs up a healing potion from his bag, and if the priestresses show no intention of casting any healing spells (probable), he proceeds to help Yyssiryl and Dariel (in that order).

"Could somebody restraint Torellan and help Dariel?"

OOC: Hmph. The snake should have been able to act immediately as it was summoned. Oh well, it wouldn't have stopped the Vrock from teleporting away...
 


Thels said:
OOC: It takes a full round to cast summon monster, so it only appears after one full round.

OOC: How so? I've always thought it as a full-round action, so that the monster appears at the end of the caster's turn. I might be wrong again, though...
 

OOC Summonings

OOC: The way I'm playing summonings is that the spell does take 1 full round to cast, i.e. the Snake or whatever you are summoning starts to appear, but it isn't fully there or ready to do anything until your next initiative. But, before the monster appears, you can tell something is coming through. If concentration is interrupted, then either the monster doesn't come through, or it comes through uncontrolled.
 

Narcelia softly sinks to her knees and tries to bind Dariels wounds. She will only cast a healing spell if she cannont safe him any other way.
 

Krecil takes the heavy blow to his head, the force of it propelling him to one side, he rolls to his knees and shakes his head at Torellan... "You did not want to do that." He advances slowly towards the magic-stricken Drow, his hands moving in the arcane dance of the Daze spell...

Seeing that Narcelia is tending to Dariel, Carcelon moves to Lady Yyssiryl and casts Cure Critical Wounds.

"Lady Yyssiryl, can you stand?"
 

Narcelia kneels by Dariel’s side and applies bandages to his body.

Carcelon moves to Yyssiryl and casts a powerful healing spell, healing many of her wounds and restoring her to consciousness. Carcelon helps Yyssiryl to stand.

Dariel is unconscious, but appears to have stabilized.

Yyssiryl is suddenly shaky, then while Carcelon is helping her to stand, she pushes Carcelon down. Yyssiryl landed on top of Carcelon and has wrapped her hands around Carcelon's neck, attempting to strangle her.

Krecil attempts to distract Torellan and it appears to be working.

Marckarius comes running back into the room along with three other drow warriors, including Tolokoph. Tolokoph yells, "My Lady, we came as quickly as we could."

Matron Ki’Willis says, “Xsaus demons! They are in the grip of a powerful enchantment!” She casts a spell that seems to encompass the entire room, with particular aspects of intense colors around Marckarius, Torellan, and Yyssiryl (Quertus recognizes the spell as a Greater Dispel Magic).

Quertus removes a potion of healing and pours it down Dariel’s throat, bring Dariel back to consciousness. The giant snake slithers its way to the back of the room behind where Quertus was standing, where you hear a loud, “Eeep!” Looking behind you, you see a bulge in the snake’s mouth and a pair of goblin-sized legs sticking out of the snake’s mouth.

Torellan was distracted by Krecil. He does nothing physical, but he begins to sing in Abyssal. Marckarius and Yyssiryl also begin to sing the same song.
