IC: Dichotomy's Age of Worms Redux, Part I

As Viktor steps out of the swarm, the freakish aberration lunges at Alendar. The elf cannot withstand the onslaught on top of his wounds from the swarm. His blood pools underneath his fallen form.

Boldak flings more oil at the swarm, steps out, and waits for Viktor to light them up. Unfornately, the warrior's aim leaves much to be desired, and he misses yet again.

Breth moves toward the aberration and flings a bolt of cold energy at it. While he is on target, the creature largely ignores the minor spell.

The swarm moves to feast on Viktor yet again. But this time the warrior stabs the heart of the swarm with the torch. As the oil catches, the greater part of the mass fries away. The few remaining beetles scatter away.

As Alexis and Alendar both continue to bleed, the aberration quickly stalks toward and attacks Breth. Fortunately, the creature, perhaps overconfident, completely misses the mage.

Viktor drops his torch and draws his hammer. He then waits for the evil beast to make it's way over to him.
[sblock=ooc]draw hammer and ready to attack when the monster comes into reach[/sblock]
 

Boldak, seeing the others' plan, drops his sword and draws his bow, whereupon he fires a shot at the giant eye. He then takes a step behind the sarcophagus to gain some protection from the aberation.
[sblock=ooc]Drop, shoot, 5' SE[/sblock]
 

Boldak hastily drops his sword and draws his bow. But, his mind was ahead of his hands, and his shot goes far afield.

While Viktor waits, hoping the creature will come to him, Breth joins him near the sound end of the sarcophagus.

Taking the closer target, the aberration comes around the north side and lashes out at Boldak. While not a serious wound, the dwarf's blood still spatters the sarcophagus.

Viktor, moves to the aberation an smites it with his hammer. "Be gone foul beast!"
[sblock=ooc]smite evil the aberation total of +6 to hit and 1d8+3 damage, and dodge bonus against it[/sblock]
 

Boldak takes a step back and fires another shot at the aberration. This one finds the mark, and the creature has another small wound. It still doesn't seem to slow, though.

Calling on the strength of his faith, Viktor slams his hammer into the creature. It recoils in pain as the divine energy courses through it, but it still stands.

Breth flings another bolt of ice from his hands, but his aim is off. The magic flies harmlessly beyond the creature.

In an extremely deft manuever, the aberration steps next two both man and dwarf. It quickly spins in a circle, attempting to catch both with its claws. However, both manage to avoid the clumsy swing.
