The dark priest steps behind the armed slave. Then he hardly makes a gesture and says an unholy word. A shroud of dark, writhing tentacles forms around his body. With great speed he begins a second more lengthy casting and shouts down curses on H'Roosh and his allies.
[sblock=H'Roosh, Mingo, Marienna, Radoon and Anson]DC: 20 will save or be afflicted with a temporary curse giving it –3 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, ability checks, and skill checks.[/sblock]
[sblock=Anybody who makes a DC: 10 spellcraft or knowledge arcana check]The priest cast a quickened spell.[/sblock]
Radoon tosses a pair of daggers at the priest (who is AC20) hitting him with both. This draws a flurry of url=http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1471986/]punches and kicks (1d20+2=21, 1d20+2=8, 1d20+2=5, 1d20+2=16)[/url] from the slaves surrounding Radoon and one actually manages to land a
blow (1d3+1=3) (non-lethal damage).
Anson steps forward and slices into the slaves and neatly drops three of them.
H'Roosh steps lightly in pursuit of the priest and strikes out at the Priest with fist and elbow, landing two solid blows and muttering as he does so. On the first blow, a crackle and spark jump from the jade ring on the monk's hand, and the walls of the room shake with the rumble of thunder. Several slaves fall overcome by the thunder. The Priest is made of sterner stuff and resists the worst of H'Roosh's attacks. The writhing tentacles lash out at H'Roosh wounding him (9 points of damage).
From his position over the body of the fallen singer Geoffrey shouts
"Ware the lich on the ice, he has summoned a Osyluth" Geoffrey will then move to engage the Devil. The Devil looks to have thin near translucent skin stretched over prominent bones, but the hide proves surprisingly tough and neither of Geoffrey's blows is enough. (AC25) As he moves in close to the hideous hell-spawn Geoffrey feels a palpable aura of fear in the air around him and even the stalwart man of faith is faced with doubt.
[sblock=Geoffrey]Fear aura DC 17 will save or be affected as by the fear spell.[/sblock]
The Devil attacks with a wicked grin using weapons from end to end,
bite, claws and tail (1d20+15=26, 1d20+13=29, 1d20+13=18, 1d20+13=18) and managing to hit the cleric with
teeth and claw (1d8+6=9, 1d4+3=6).
The Lich casts another spell the effects of which are not immediately apparent.
Marienna fires her
Crossbow (1d20+6=16) and the
bolt (1d8=2) hits but does not drop a slave (3).
Gnurl says his now familiar command word and cuts loose with a swarm of magic missiles that slay the two slaves closest to him (armed slave 3, slave 3) and wound a third (6).
Several slaves try to make attacks, but none are successful.
Mingo moves her spiritual weapon to the Lich and while the blow seems to be true, the weapon simply winks out of existence. She has better luck with her sling felling three slaves, but the bounce glances off the Priest's armor. A third shot is equally unable to hit him. Mingo moves a little deeper in to the room.
Mig follows her master and continues to aid him.
The room has become a charnel house littered with bodies. Only a pair of unarmed slaves stand at the back of the room with the Devil and the Lich. The Priest continues to battle H'Roosh.

Will Save (1d20+8=27)[/sblock]
OOC: I can't believe everybody made their will saves against the curse. That sucks! Anyway, sorry for the delay in posting. I've got a head cold and I just wasn't feeling up for it last night.
