If Thoughts Could Kill

Groknar recalls the power of the crystalline construct of crimson from his previous encounter with such a beast. Its arms struck with the power of sledgehammers, and it was fiendishly difficult to hurt. Still, bad wizard lady sought to hurt his charge and his news friends, so Groknar stepped forward, swinging his greataxe down onto the psi-killer. Still, something seemed missing. Without Tarkus, it just wasn't as enjoyable to chop something into tiny, bloody bits of kibble and revel as your enemy's blood washed over you.

Knowing that he was pretty much useless against such a creature, Bellus instead moves forward attempting to use his Wand of Cat's Grace on Groknar. 'Let's see you hit my friend now, you overgrown Marble!'
 

Verra fired three times with his bow, using rapid shot (and haste). If someone else comes down behind the golem before Verra shoots, he will shoot them instead.

Otherwise, three at the golem. So far, so good, though the creature has yet to attack, Verra thought.
 

Two more of Verra's arrows strike home (19 and 17 damage). Groknar hits once with his greataxe (17 damage). Large cracks are showing in the creature's crystal shell. Bellus steps up behind the half-orc and graces the barbarian (+2 Dex).

To be continued...
 

"Be mindful of the psion killer's dispelling pulses. I believe the radius of effect is about 30 ft." Darian then shuffles backwards, to make sure the golem doesn't remove his defenses. "I'll keep an eye out, since you seem to have this foe in hand." Cursed magic immune creatures.

[Darian steps 5' to the south and readies an action to blast any additional hostile (seeming) creatures with a volley of magic missiles. 4d4+4, +7 vs SR]
 

Qataria takes up her sword and swings a mighty blow at the PK.

"We don't need magic to slay this thing." She shouts as her Adamantine Flamberge swings in.

OOC: Full power attack + Reckless attack.

+15/10 to hit, 2d6+21 damage, AC 15
 

Qataria unleashes one mighty blow against the crystalline construct (30 damage), but her second attack glances off its hard shell. Darian readies his spell. Zelestine steps up next to Qataria and swings twice with her greatsword, but misses.

The psion killer slams Zelestine twice with its massive fists as it steps toward the crystalline pit (35 damage). Again a pulse of energy washes over the fighters. Groknar feels his newly received agility fade, although his weapon still appears enhanced. Zelestine also loses her endurance spell.

At the bottom of the shaft to the surface three mind flayers levitate into view and touch down on the stone floor. The one in back wears the robes of Ellyn of the Wands. Darian's magic missles lance out towards the foremost of the mind flayers, but fade from view before impacting.

Two waves of mental energy pour over Groknar, pummelling his mind, but he resists. Darian hears a voice speaking inside his head, "Stand Still! Stand Still!" He pushes the voice away.

Groknar, surprised by the appearance of the squiddy-heads, charges them. Still, however, the appearance of new, living foes that bleed and scream when hit does little to raise Groknar's spirits. Time to eat axe, the half-orc flatly states as he raises his axe to strike down the first of the cowardly mind flayers.

OOC: Charge, Power Attack for 6, +16 Greataxe, 1d12+20+1d6 Acid
 

OoC:Woohoo! An Enemy I can hurt!

IC: Bellus grins, using
Cartwheel Charge to flip and somersault up and into the Illithids. Bout time he got to cut something that would bleed...

Cartwheel Charge, Attack +Sneak
>Kukri +15 on Charge 1D4+3 Crit:15+/X2 +3D6 Sneak.>

Target is the Mind Flayer in f4, since that's the only one I can probably see. Eat Kukri, Squid-Boy!
