Message: <blockquote data-quote="Systole" data-source="post: 6272671" data-attributes="member: 93930">Heinrich launches a fireball into the mist ahead of him, searing it away.  Nom is badly burned, and two of the undead fall to the ground, their rotting flesh blasted from their bones.  Tyrien targets a third one, which had been burned but not destroyed by the fire magics, and kills it.  She fires two more arrows, one which disappears into the fog, and one which strikes flesh.  Eanos sends his own arrow after the archeress’ and hears the thump of a corpse falling lifelessly to the dirt.For a moment, there’s no movement and no sound, and then a mocking laugh comes echoing out of a different bank of fog.  “Hah ... hah ... hah,” it rasps.  “You thought my true vessel was the corpse of some pathetic fisherman?  You no longer interest me.  Goodbye.” As it speaks the words, five pale corpses burst out of the mist and advance.  One manages to close with Heinrich and slashes him with wicked, dirt-encrusted fingernails, and the wizard feels a deathly chill run through his body.  The other undead move to surround the intruders.A sixth walking corpse limps out of the cloud where the voice had relocated.  It appears to have been a female ruffian in life, but the voice that comes from its throat is rasping and masculine.  “And you, Nom … you should know that your flower was never going to be yours.  Yessss … every word from her lips was a lie.  And now you’re going down … down where the wigglies will nibble on your bits.  All your bits, Nom.  Alllll your bits.” The gravedigger whimpers weakly in terror, and then the walking dead reaches down toward him.  There’s a sharp crack, and then Nom is still.     <a href="http://beta.ditzie.com/48520/53190f0c64f41" target="_blank">Combat Map</a>[sblock=Combat Information]Here’s the short writeup.  I had a longer, more detailed one, but after En ate it, I’m not inclined to type the whole thing out again.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Heinrich launches fireball.  Mist is burned away in fireball’s radius.  W4 fails save and dies.  W7 is already damaged from Tyrien’s arrow through the crypt doors and dies, save or no save.  W6 makes save and survives.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Tyrien’s first arrow kills W7.  Second arrow misses due to concealment.  Third arrow hits W8.  Eanos hits W8 and finishes it off.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">End of player turn.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">W3 charges Heinrich.  Hits for 5 damage plus level drain (DC 14 Fortitude).  W5 moves south and finishes off Nom.  All the others move forward into attack positions.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">End of undead turn.   Party is up.</li> </ul>Party Stats:Heinrich.....33/38 HP remaining (Shield) plus DC 14 level drainTyrien.......72/72 HP remainingEanos........61/61 HP remainingEnemy Stats:<s>Nom Raskey (AC11/9Touch/11FF): Dead</s><s>Wight 1 (AC15/11Touch/14FF): Uninjur</s><s>ed</s><s>Wight 2 (AC15/11Touch/14FF): Uninjured</s><s>Wight 3 (AC15/11Touch/14FF): Uninjured</s><s><s>Wight 4</s><s>(AC15/11Touch/14FF): Dead</s></s><s>Wight 5(AC15/11Touch/14FF): Uninjured</s><s><s>Wight 6</s><s>(AC15/11Touch/14FF): Dead</s></s><s><s>Wight 7(AC15/11Touch/14FF): Dead</s></s><s><s>Wight 8(AC15/11Touch/14FF): Dead</s></s><s>Wight 9(AC15/11Touch/14FF): Uninjured</s><s>Wight 10(AC15/11Touch/14FF): 15 damage[/sblock]</s></blockquote>
