SEGMENT 141
“Azers”
The party leaves the swamps and exit looking to rest and power up before re-entering the Forge Room.
Everyone heals up and prepares for the worst. Assuming they picked the correct doorway, they will be entering a room that is deadly just to be within. Also, it seems to harbor creatures that are immune to the conditions. Taskerdoo seriously expects an Iron Golem to make an appearance.
Rested and respelled (minus an animal companion / familiar) they gather up at the doorway to leave. Cedious slowly opens the door and feels the heat and smells the fumes immediately. He sees movement below so he opens it more and sees a bunch of burning humanoids or dwarves. It appears to be a slave camp as there are guards everywhere watching over the workers.
Cedious passes it on then drops to the catwalks below. The guards turn and the workers move away. Then Black sands drops down causing the catwalk to ripple and crack in a few spots. Vale, wearing the lizard creature’s armor, which is incredibly light, drops in next after powering up. He still falls in such a way to hurt himself.
[DM NOTES: Some day he will succeed]
As Sharshek and Taskerdoo step up to the doorway suddenly bursts of flame appear on the short area of catwalk there. These bursts then move on their own. Fire Elementals! Meanwhile, below, the rogue, cleric and barbarian face the heat and attacks of several fighters including some on the catwalks that throw spears at them. With a big smile Cedious comments on the trouble they are in then coughs violently. The air is toxic.
Sharshek takes down two elementals but another appears. Knowing this is wrong, Taskerdoo searches the catwalks and finds the answer. A cleric! He spider climbs out and takes cover under the catwalks as he moves to attack the Azer Cleric whom is on the third level overlooking everyone.
Vale powers up Black sands with Bull Strength even as he enrages. The Azer fighters are tough! He turns to caste a spell of heat resistance to the rogue but he is moving away already to attack from behind.
The elementals are defeated and Sharshek, as last time, decides it is better to prepare his leaving so as not to hold up the group (or fall into the lava / molten debris below).
A summoned Dire Rat tries to attack Taskerdoo through the rungs of the catwalk. He carefully keeps enough distance to avoid the diseased creature but still get cover from the Clerics attacks. He then castes his own spell and the Cleric loses some wisdom. Though Taskerdoo took damage from delivering the touch attack. The Azer and his armor is HOT.
DM NOTES: [Already used highest spells- no loss]
The cleric suddenly leaps from his perch and grapples the surprised druid whom is spider climbing the wall. The cleric bear hugs him and laughs at him. All the druid can do is scream, as the Azer is burning him alive.
Below the Azer fighters have run out of spears so they are charging down the catwalks and ladders to reach the invaders. The Dire rat, disappointed that one halfling has left his reach, spots another and rushes off to nip at the heels of that one. With enough heat protection, they are fine and battle their way through the guards. They take some damage but not nearly as much as the Azers.
The Azer cleric continues to squeeze the halfling and burn him. With nothing to lose, Taskerdoo lets go. The Azer no longer laughs as his armored weigh turns them over and it is he that strikes the metal catwalk 60 feet below. The impact is enough to bend and pop several rods. Stunned, he lets go of the halfling whom rolls off and finds the increased heat and fumes of being so close to the molten material overwhelming. He passes out.
Black sands rushes over leaving a wounded fighter and a rat for Cedious and Vale to deal with. Once he leaves, the workers turn and attack them! “Aw Com’on!” yells Cedious as he kills the rat. Against his better judgement, Sharshek climbs to the bottom of the catwalk, hangs off it to insure his placement and drops behind the workers. Bad for the traitorous workers.
The cleric, knowing he can not face the ½ giant alone rolls into the lava hoping to avoid him. He forgot one thing. He is immune to its heat but still needs to breathe. Black sands pushes the clerics head under the molten surface until he stops kicking. Then holds it further whistling the whole time.
They make haste to search and leave. They find a leather bag that resists the heat, several gems within the bag and a magical ring that allows the cleric to levitate.
They carefully work and clamor their way into the doorway exit (no more spider climbing Logan whom carried even the heaviest member with ease) Inside the hallway, the close the door and sigh thinking they can rest.
“Tok Tark Anor”
Black sands translates- “You may not pass here unless we tear you apart!”
Turning to see whom spoke Giant, they see twin Ogres in armor and wielding large spiked clubs.
