Two rush in, their antique longblades leading the way. Both Donner and Sarryx, caught flat-footed against the attacks, suffer bloody but none life-threatening wounds from the sword strikes.Esmeralda moves toward the house, at the same time calling upon her arcane power to influence the weather. The air begins to fill with static electricity, as if lightning were about to strike close by.Ares follows Esme's lead, moving closer to the shelter of the house. As he moves, he uses his own arcane power levitate his body, and begins rising into the air above the reach of the skeletons.Another of the skeletal warriors charges Kyranvik, but the weapon is turned by the warrior's thick, dwarven-crafted armor."Slay them, and bring their bodies to me," calls the armored man with the long, flowing hair. He reaches down and picks up Kay'El's unmoving body with a single hand, as easily as if the elf was an infant. Then he turns, and begins to move off into the mist."You'll pay for this, murderer!" Ryan is filled with rage. He wants to attack the armored stranger, but the man is too far away. In any case, it may be best to fight him later, without these skeletons in the way. Ryan moves to attack the monster which charged Kyranvik, and using a spell to imbue his sword with arcane power he swings hard at the foe. Ryan's sword strikes, arcing electricty across the skeleton's metal shield and armor...the blade itself does little damage, no more than cracking some bone, but the shock of the duskblade's spell jolts the undead back a foot.Donner quickly whirls around to meet his agressors glowing eyes. He stares down surrounding skeleton warriors and steps backwards. He then yells out to the skies for Bahari to strike down this creature that dares wound him. His prayer is answered in the shape of "eletric" current surrounds the armored undead. The blast of divine energy staggers the skeletal warrior, but it quickly regains its footing. It glares at the cleric, its unearthly eyes filled with hatred.The remaining undead move forward. Two close in on Ryan, one managing to score a nasty cut across the warrior's thight. Another charges Delkat, but the cleric manages to get his shield up just in the nick of time to block the sword thrust.Ismark steps forward and draws his own longsword, striking at the skeleton near Delat. His blade glances off the undead's armor, doing no damage.Seeing the enemies surrounding him, Sarryx steps away from them between Donner and Delkat and unleashes the flames on the enemy, hoping to burn their undead bodies away. While the flames burn their gear and blacken their bones, it fails to fell either foe."SUFFER NO UNDEATH!" shouts Delkat. He moves to his left and begins to call out,"In your name, goddess, I implore you to lift the taint of evil that surrounds this home -- purify it with your will and warm all living things with your radiance!" He reaches into his haversack and finds a small vial therein, he sprinkles it up in the air, and onto the ground -- a wave of positive energy floods the area.Kyranvik watches as the skeletons advance rapidly. He moves slowly but deliberately. He pulls out a flail and begins swinging it above his head before slamming it into a skeleton. The weapon shatters bones from the thing's ribcage, but it remains stubbornly on its feet.I will get the battlemap posted later tonight.Edit: Realized I had the wrong initiative modifier noted for the "Undead Warriors", so I adjusted it. Unfortunately, a couple of them now go first. I should have their actions update in the next couple hours.Initiative Count22 Undead Warrior #1 - charge action, longsword vrs Donner 19 (hit, Donner flat-footed), damage 10; will save vrs DC16 12 (fail); reflex save vrs DC20 18 (fail)22 Undead Warrior #2 - charge action, longsword vrs Sarryx 28 (hit), damage 13; reflex save vrs DC20 24 (success)21 Esmeralda - [NPCed] move to W9, begin casting call lightning20 Ares - [NPCed] Move to V9, cast levitate 20 Undead Warrior #4 - charge action, longsword vrs Kyranvik 18 (miss)20 Armored Man - picks up Kay'El, moves18 Donner - 5' step to W13, cast Deific Vengeance on UW1 for 20 damage17 Ryan - move to Z14, cast shocking grasp, greatsword vrs UW4 25 (hit), damage 4+16 electrical16 Undead Warrior #6 - move, longsword vrs Ryan 21 (hit), damage 1307 Undead Warrior #3 - charge action, longsword vrs Delkat 21 (miss)07 Undead Warrior #5 - move, longsword vrs Ryan 19 (miss)07 Sarryx - 5' step, breath weapon vrs UW2 for 8 damage; vrs UW1 for 14 damage06 Ismark - 5' step, longsword vrs UW3 15 (miss)06 Delkat - move, cast consecrate01 Kyranvik - draw flail, manifest hammer, flail vrs UW4 24 (hit), damage 20PC StatusDonner 34/44Sarryx 56/69Ryan 31/44Opponent StatusUW1 -34UW2 -08UW4 -40--- MAP ---</blockquote>
