[IC] The Trouble at Durbenford

The group, now organized as they would prefer, mounts an attack on the golem. Padraig's sword makes another slice, and Jasper knocks a chunk of clay from the creature with his morningstar.

The others assist where they can, Zagnak buttressing defenses while Ruathen and Konstantine wait for an opening to step in.

Ruathen's eyes dart between Padraig, the golem, and Jasper as he considers his next action. Realizing Padraig's heavy armor would nullify any augmentation of his agility, Ruathen dashes over to Jasper, reaching a hand out to enspell him with Cat's Grace.
 

Seeing that he simply can't get to Gil, and knowing that attempting to do so would likely mean his death, Konstantine instead moves right behind Padraig and uses his wand.
 


Padraig, Male Human Fighter

Padraig grunts in frustration at the statue's ability to so quickly heal from gashes he is opening in its body--and the battering that he himself is suffering.

His spirit is reinvigorated as Jasper rushes in and begins smashing chunks of clay from the horrid thing.

A memory flashes across the warrior's eyes, bringing a smile to his lips. He rummages in his pack for a moment, retrieving a small brown gem. He then flings the gem upon the ground, causing it to smash open...

[sblock=OOC]Retrieves item as move action.
Smashes elemental gem as standard action.
Resultant Large earth elemental will attempt to either bull rush or start a grapple with the clay golem, whichever is more likely to clear non-threatened spaces for Konstantine to get to Gil.[/sblock]
 

Ruathen and Konstantine dispense their aid, and the others make good use of it.

Padraig pulls a small stone from his belt pouch and smashes it on the ground. The elemental that grows from it easily overmatches the softer clay creature and drives it back. Both topple to the ground as the grease on the floor finally dissipates.

Jasper and Padraig take the opportunity to separate larger pieces of the golem from its body, and Zagnak wounds it even further with his greatclub.

The creature still manages to strike Padraig from its prone position, bringing him dangerously close to death.


[sblock=ooc]Ruathen stops delaying, casts cats grace on Jasper.
Konstantine stops delaying, heals Padraig: 5hp
Padraig retrieves an elemental gem. Normally retrieving a stored item provokes, but this seems like the time of thing that could easily be pulled out of a small pouch. Let me know if anpone strongly disagrees :-). FH 1.
Elemental Bull Rush: 19 vs. 10. Succeeds. Pushes Golem back into the North wall.
Padraig AoO: 23 hits. Damage 4+2+4
Jasper AoO: 23 hits. 9+2 damage.
Grease saves: Golem: 7, falls. Elemental: 12, falls.
Zagnak, moves, rages, attacks (PA 5): 17+flanking+prone, hits. 20 + 10PA - 10DR + 1shock.
Golem attacks Padraig 17, 30, 32 (-4). 2 hit. 28 damage.

Init and Status:
Jasper: 2 - 14hp, Magic Vestment +1[long], Fly[medium], fast healing 1, +4 Dex (CG)
Gil: 16 - 58hp, cursed wound, unconscious(bleeding)
Ruathen: 15
Konstantine: 15 - 5hp
Padraig: 14 - 56hp, fast healing 1, (52 cursed hp), +3 AC(barkskin)
Elemental: 13, prone
Zagnak: 8, Endure Elements[long], Vigor[12r]
Creature: 6 - 70hp, prone

Jasper adds his own strike to the mix, smashing his morningstar into the thrashing golem below. The thing seems greatly injured, and even slows its movements somewhat.

Konstantine heals more of the fighter's wounds.

Padraig's final strike stills the creature once and for all. The mass of clay lays motionless, as does Gil.

[sblock=ooc]I guess I forgot Jasper. Attack: 20! damage: 10!+2
CLW: 8, only 4 healed.

Padraig's next attack (I'm assuming here): 28, damage 4+2 +6

golem - 94hp, dead
Padraig - 52hp
Gil - 59hp
