Industrygothica's "Those Left Behind" [IC]

[industrygothica]

[Group 1]

Friadoc swears at the beast as he swings his nanchaku again, but his frustration gets the better of him as all he manages to do is knock a chunk of stone out of the wall causing it to land in the muck with a thick plunk.

Rogash rights his glaive and slashes the creature along its deformed side. A good deal of ooze seeps from the wound as the creature cries out in pain.

Heironeous looks upon Jonas as he swings his sword. Jonas's aim is true as his sword opens a huge gash in what appears to be the beast's neck. A great glob of gelatinous goo pours from the opening into the filthy water, and the creature's screams must echo from the sewers into the city streets above.

On unsteady legs the creature launches a feeble attack at Jonas, landing only a single weak strike with one of its large tentacles.

[sblock=details]24 Friadoc 26/32: attacks (1=automiss)
19 Rogash Ungart 39/39: attacks (17+7=hit, 5 damage)
16 Jonas Cleighton 44/44: longsword (20=autohit, 20 (holy crap!)+10 confirms, 20 damage)
7 Otyugh 1: [vs. Jonas] tentacle=miss; tentacle=hit, 5 damage; bite=miss

[Group 2]

Rokelsh swings his mighty greatsword in another beautiful routine; the first strike opening an impressive gash on on the front of the creature. Its cries join those of the other, and the cavern is filled with a cacophony of unnatural screams. Rokelsh's second swing misses, as the warrior is distracted from the unexpected wailing.

Tanith drowns out the noise somehow, and puts a crossbow bolt into the thing's head, abruptly putting it out of its misery, and hers.

The deafening screeches subside as the creature collapses into the filth.

[sblock=details]15 Rokelsh 37/37: attacks (9+12=hit, 13 damage; 1=automiss)
10 Tanith Dathius 23/23: fires crossbow (13+5=hit, 2 damage)
7 Otyugh 2: dies
3 Shaimon Hu'u 36/36:
3 Dyspeer 29/29:

Only one left, by the door. Shai and Dyspeer still haven't acted, as theirs is dead.

[Mista Collins]

With only one remaining, Tanith reloads her crossbow once more and fires a bolt at the creature.

 

[Friadoc]

Friadoc will take a calming breath, focusing his chi and attack the creature once more, should it still remain.

 

[DrZombie]

Jonas takes another swing at the beast (or will move and attack or double move to the nearest critter if 'his' otty doesn't make it till his turn comes up.)

 

[Scotley]

Rogash

Once more, Rogash swings his Glaive at the creature trying to finish it off.

 

[industrygothica]

Friadoc takes a deep breath as he clings to the wall, and swiftly delivers a killing blow, splitting the creature's misshapen head before it crumbles into the muck (attack 15+6=hit, 5 damage).

As the screams have dissipated, the silence is deafening; the only sound is that of your breathing.

 

[Friadoc]

"One must love the infinite ability of the universe to test our intestinal fortitude," says Friadoc before returning his attention to the door.

 

[Mista Collins]

"I've already lost my breakfast, I hope not to lose last nights meal." Tanith says as she observes the other party members and their attempts with the door.

 

[Scotley]

Rogash

Looking at the blood and guts of the dead creatures, Rogash comments, "And 10 minutes ago I would have said there was no way it could get more disgusting down here." He turns his attention to his companions, "Is anyone seriously hurt. The Gods only know what sort of diseases might get into a wound down here."

 

[industrygothica]

As hard as Friadoc tries, his small frame will not permit him to open the door--at least not from his current position clinging to the wall.

"The Gods only know what sort of diseases might get into a wound down here."
