Path of Enlightenment: Chapter 2

[Voda Vosa]

Wang misses the hulking creature, but Ziang's bolt sinks in it's shoulder. Leng stabs the beast from behind, and Ban Lu uses the divine powers invested in him to seer his foe.

For the first time, Shen's thrusts find their mark, and the point of the spear tastes the Oni's blood.

Koryo positions behind the Oni, and even with the guidance of Ban Lu's lance of faith, his blows bounce off the creature's hard hide.

The ashamed Kaoru attempts another attack. This time he moves about, gathering the energy of the forest. He then unleshes it over the oni as raw power, that makes the creature recoil 3 steps by the force of the impact.

The oni shows his teeth, and grunts, he is heavily wounded. The fiend attempts to advance once more, but his eyes close, he blinks, tumbles, and falls to the ground of the forest, lifting a big cloud of dust and leaves. It breathes twice, and then expired. As the heroes relaxed their muscles, the body skewers and contracts awkwardly, looses mass and ends like a pile of crushed bones and a thin blueish skin covering it.

Slowly, the sounds of the forest return, and the evil presence is no more.

Picture time.
[sblock=Take a look]
Well I was pretty bored, and thought about doing something constructive for the game so I found some pictures!

Ziang Yu

Ziang blinks at the sudden defeat of the oni-creature, having used up one dose of his gleaming powder for seemingly nothing.

"Are there more around?"

[sblock=OOC]
Great Wasted a healing infusion. Does anyone wants to sacrifice a Healing Surge, for the greater good, so Ziang can make a new one?

If not, I will sacrifice one of his own.

Short rest?

OOC: [sblock=RE damage]Ban Lu rolled a crit twice in a row, so damage was max plus two d6 for the crit bonus of his implement that's why I included the item in the post. Damage was max for the crit +4 wis, +2 for the implement +1 for his feat when using radiant attacks and then I rolled the 2d6 crit bonus dice. Hope I did it right. It did seem like a lot of damage.

[Voda Vosa]

OO]C: Now it makes sense. Thanks for clarifying bud.

 

[Helfdan]

Wang looks down at the demon grimly. "Well done, everyone. Is anyone hurt?"

[sblock=OOC]
Dad, go ahead and have one of Wang's surges. I agree with a short rest. [/sblock]

 

[Scotley]

OO]C: Now it makes sense. Thanks for clarifying bud.

OOC: I'll try to make it more explicit in the initial post in future.

 

[Scotley]

"Yes, can I help anyone?" Ban Lu goes about the group offering up a healing word as needed.

OOC: Spend a healing surge for him as well.

Ziang Yu

As the other tend wounds, Ziang readjusts the targeting system of his weapon and mixes new healing powder with Wang's help.

[sblock=OOC]

Want to use Short rest to replenish powers.

Kaoru

The young 'monk' stands there for a short time, staring at the slain-demon lying at their feet. "I am ashamed, my brothers," he says simply and then lifts his head to look each of them in the eye. "My performance was inadequate against this fiend," he explains, gesturing towards the blue-oni. "Please allow me to reflect on this and to balance the flows at the next opportunity."

"This does not appear to be the spider-demon Master Jien spoke of," he looks around questiongly to the others.
