OK Rhun, go on and change the action and I'll throw the next post, god, you are only three with Eliyyad being NPC but the group is strong!

I'll have my post changed soon...just need to figure out what to do, since Holy Smite is Turo's most powerful magic. And it just pretty much became a useless spell. LOL. He should never hang out with all these heathens!

Post Changed!

Round 2 - End of combat.

With a wink the far creature (2) vanish from sight.

Keldar aims his weapon toward the creature in front of him. "Damn beast, you could have walked away!" One of Keldar aims strikes true, but the other one misses.

“Alright, fun's over then...” Allyra says and rapidly casts a summoning spell, causing three black-furred apes to appear among the creatures, immediately ripping at them with their claws successfully.

Despite his injury, Turo manages to maintain his focus, and summons a beautiful white and golden bison. It appears behind the creature that just struck Turo, striking back with its own mighty horns. As the bison attacks and miss, Turo again calls upon the holy power of his god. Channeling divine energies, he summons a weapon of pure spiritual force, and begins to strike immediately at the nearest foe, the weapon pounds the creature that screams in agony.

The three creatures, realizing the dire situation they are in, whistle loudly and sink into an opening in the rocky ground. A moment later the dimensional opening disappears.

I think they vanished.
Say Eliyyad

A moment pass and a laugh can be heard, the last one that vanished from sight appears and immediately pass through the wall of stone behind you like the wall wasn’t there.
some of you are stuck in the mud in this cave, a stone wall blocks the exit.
The bison growns and the apes scratch themselves, waiting for orders.

Allyra

“Break down this wall!” Allyra orders the apes, pointing at the wall, that closed the cavern behind them. “But when they reappear, the creatures have priority.”

The wizardess herself wades through the mud for one of the few remaining spots with rocky underground, where she climbs out.

 

[Rhun]

Turo nods to the magnificent bison. "Help the apes destroy that wall," he says, gesturing toward the wall of stone. Then he too moves to climb out of the mud.

 

[Strahd_Von_Zarovich]

The apes pound and the bison gore the thick wall, one can say that it’s several inch thick, but after several moments you can spot cracks and small breaches.
In the meantime, you check the contents of the room. All of the treasure in the place is junk, the jewelry is simple brass and glass, the gems are nothing but faked glass that can be sold at any marker for 1 to 5 silver coins, although there are a lot of them (>2000).

After some time, there is a large enough breach where you can squeeze into and out of this damned cave.

After some time, there is a large enough breach where you can squeeze into and out of this damned cave.

Keldar will get out of the mud, brush it off his equipment, and take a peak at what lies beyond the wall.

 

[Rhun]

"It appears that the variety of denizens in this place will not cease to amaze," says Turo, as Keldar moves to look beyond the wall. "We should continue on."

Allyra

“How very true. I hope these ones have learned their lesson, though, and stay wherever it is they are staying.”

The magical creatures are no where to be seen. You assume the last one fled to his home plane the same way the others did. All is quite, left for the flow in the river near the bridge. The nearest unexplored passage lies to your right and it's bends sharply to a big cave.
This high-domed cavern displays a rainbow of colors on its walls and floor. Even the many stalactites above hang like colored icicles. Various mineral deposits in the rock have seeped into frozen curtains, cascades, and many fantastic shapes. The floor has numbers of humps and stalagmites of varies hue and strange form. In the center of the chamber is a heap of coins and metal bars.

As you round the corner you hear a loud voice, speaks in the human tongue.
Visitors, I have smelled you from the bridge and awaited you.
Sitting next to the heap of treasure is a creature with 3 heads (one of a dragon, one of a lion, and one of a gorgon), the front half of a lion and the back half of a a metal-skinned bull. It had dragon wings, the head that speaks is the red dragon's head, while the bull head sneers green fumes.

This is some kind of Chimera. You heard only stories about those vicious monsters but you recall nothing special.

This is a weird creature, clearly magical.

"By the gods, It's a gorgimera". The gorgimera is a three-headed creature akin to the chimera, but, it's more powerful breed.
It has the hindquarters of a gorgon and the forequarters of lion. Its leathery dragon wings are reddish-brown and the gorgimera has the heads of a lion, dragon, and gorgon. This one has a red dragon head, and a gorgon head instead of a goat and a lion head. The lion’s head is maneless with green eyes. The scaly gorgon head is bluish-black with glowing crimson eyes.
You recall that the dragon head can breath fire and the gorgon head can petrificate with his deadly breath.
