Undead Foray Round 7
Marot waits for his moment to strike.
The trapped
ghast cannot free itself, and its curses get more insistent. The
free ghast snarls, but instead of rushing headlong at Jarrith and company, dashes into the nearest building. For a heart racing moment, it is out of sight until Jarrith and Daellin see it smashing open a window on the side of the building. Its going around!
With the window open,
Jarrith is assaulted by the foul carrion stench clinging to the ghast. The smell overwhelms him, forcing him to retch!
[Fort 9 fails; sickened]
Seeing an opening,
Marot pours more holy fire into the fray. However, the ghast is well protected by the window, and the blast hits the building ineffectually.
[AC 9 misses]
Janis emerges from the alley to find herself on another empty street. She hustles towards the sound of combat, finding entrapped foes. She cannot see the others, but assumes they managed at least to get to the other end of the road.
The scholar holds back, waiting for his time to help. After all, fighting is what the others are for. Right?
Ashlyn fights the weeds, trying to free Jarrith. She is able to pull some of the weeds from him. She hopes it will be enough.
[Aid Another Strength Check 14 succeeds]
Sickened, with no undead to fight,
the Stalker thinks twice about attacking and tries to free himself. With Ashlyn's assistance, he easily extracts his legs.
[Full round action to escape; Escape Artist 25 succeeds; not entangled]
Sir Urik curses colorfully and moves towards the building trying to block the ghast's escape. The great man seems heedless of the undead's foul oder. Meanwhile, the sound of
Urik's raven can be heard from the building, as it once more attempts to baffle the ghast. The undead bats at the bird, distracted.
[Ghast harried (-2 AC)]
Daellin sights the ghast, and sends three more arrows flying. Two of them strike the building, but the third makes its mark, wounding it heavily.
[AC 13, 9 ranged miss; AC 24 hits; 12 hp]
The weeds try to once again entrap Jarrith, but even sickened he has learned his lesson---they fail to grab him.
[Reflex 20 succeeds]
Selase's mount starts bucking at the scent of the ghast, and Khensu is unable to control it.
[Ride Check 2 fails]
The zombie continues struggling in a futile attempt to escape.
