The Lamentation of Lolth - Chapter VI

[Majin]

Drogo drags Teleri away from the fight and quickly casts a curative spell on her. (Heals 9 damage which brings her to +5) Rex snaps at Malifustal once again, biting into her exposed ankle. (9 damage) The demonspawn shrieks and turns her attention to Rex, trying to shake him loose. Teleri spends the round coming to in her prone state and getting her bearings. Seeing StormArmor on the ground where Teleri dropped it when she fell, Calenthang drops his own blade and makes a combat roll for the sword, grabbing it and bringing it to bare, quickly slashing at the distracted Malifustal's midsection. (Crit - 19 damage) A surge of satisfaction can be felt from the blade at the grievous wound inflicted.

Sielwoodan's first arrow finds it's mark in Malifustal's shoulder but doesn't seem to get a reaction out of the creature, who's now clutching her side in anger at being wounded so. His second skitters across the ground behind her. As Broddy prepares his spell he thinks back on his teachings and planar lore. Looking at the furniture around him, devoid of color, and then at Malifustal something sparks. Then he remembers the dreams, the hauntings. Therav's peculiar actions. It all comes together for him then as he finally realizes what the party faces before them, but the knowledge does not make him any happier. Malifustal is a Night Hag from the fabled plane of Hades. Knowing this now it is of little surprise to him when the results of his spell wash over the hag with little reaction as is common with creatures immune to fire, among other things.

Sarlis has better luck now, as his goodly aligned arrow strikes Malifustal in the chest, making her recoil from the force of the shot. (8 damage) Hate burns in the eyes of the wicked hag as she steps back and sends four more large bolts of energy spewing from her hand, directly at Calenthang this time, and growls deeply as the fighter still manages to remain erect. (21 damage) Ayden reaches the hag and swings his hammer, impacting her thigh with only a glancing blow which does no real damage. Watching the battle unfold before him, Dunstand tucks his next dagger away, knowing it useless in this situation. Thinking fast and thinking Calenthang not to mind given the circumstances he rushes towards the elven fighter. When he reaches him he doesn't stop as he skillfully draws the magical short sword from Calenthang's side. He skids to a halt at Malifustal's side and slashes between the armpit of her upraised arm, cutting deep, drawing more blood. (6 damage)

A little dazed from the pain left by the magic burn, Calenthang hardly notices the sheath at his side made lighter by the agile rogue. With only a little over a third of his life-force left in him and the weakness showing, he hopes his clerical friends will aid him in maintaining another hit such as that one.
He continues to fight the creature with the newly acquired StormArmor.

(OOC: Our tank is willing to take the blows, but he's useless on the floor )

Teleri forces herself awake, pain throbbing throughout her body, bracing herself against the rough-hewn wall of the chamber, trying to remember where the hell she is and what's going on. Seeing the demonic creature, she grimaces and fumbling in her pouch she brings out a glass vial of holy water. She takes careful aim and tosses it at the creature, hoping that it will break and cause some damage.

I am not going to sit by helplessly while this thing tears my friends apart. she thinks grimly, though the effort of throwing the vial leaves her lightheaded with pain and she sinks to the ground, fighting the darkness shivering around the edges of her sight.

 

[Verbatim]

Seeing Calenthang fighting to keep his balance after withstanding one of Malifustal's magical assaults, Ayden began humming a song of healing and when he felt Finder's grace surge into him, he reached out and placed his hand on the fighter's back.

[Manzanita]

Drogo

Seeing his dog fighting effectively, and his friend Teleri back in action, Drogo turns his attention back to the battle. Fearing his summoned animals would be no more effective than his steel, stone or wooden weapons, he decides to try something else. Moving forward behind Calenthang, he reaches out, saying, "The strenth of our world aids you against the forces of another!"

He then casts Bulls Strenth on the elf warrior.

 

[DarkMaster]

Seeing that Ayden help will probably be temporary, Sarlis goes deep within him get Lathander strength. For a brief moment his body starts to shiver and a blast of positive energy radiates from his body, covering everybody around with a faint aura of positive energy. (spending a turn attempt to activate Sacred boost:Until the end of Sarlis next turn everybody 60ft rad receiving cure spell will get it maximised, So Ayden CLW will give 8+3 hp)

 

[Mimic]

Sometimes, just sometimes knowing something isn't always a good thing.

"So, thats a Night Hag... boy they sure are ugly." Is the first thought that goes through Broddy's head.

"Ok stay on topic Broddy, its a Night Hag.... immune to fire, cold and various other spells as well as resistant to the spells its not imune to as well as physical damage, which makes me virtually useless. Maybe Teleri was right about forcing it through the portal."

Once more words of magic escape his lips as he bends the weave to do his bidding. He spots the rogue as he releases the magical energies, hoping that this will help defeat the creature.

ooc: Enlarge person

"It's a Night Hag. Force it through the portal."

 

[hippocrachus]

OOC: Can Broddy close the portal?

 

[Velmont]

Sielwoodan drop his bow and draw his sword before he try himself to Bullrush the creature into the portal, hoping he won't end like Teleri...

 

[Majin]

Drogo casts his augmentation spell on Calenthang, imbuing the elven fighter with tremendous strength. Bolstered by the new spell and the momentum gained on the night hag, Calenthang slashes again at Malifustal, right at her midsection again, slicing the arm she has guarding it clean off! (Crit - 19 damage) Malifustal screams in agony at the loss of her arm and begins looking around wildly, as if for an escape.

Seeing his chance, Sielwoodan attempts to give the hag her wish as he runs up to her, intent on pushing her through the portal. She bites at him as he comes into contact with her, but misses as the agile ranger twists out of her reach. Trying to push her back, the two struggle for a time before Malifustal screams once more, this time out of frustration as she pushes him back. Broddy begins working on his enlargement spell as Sarlis activates his divine ability.

Teleri's vial of holy water is caught in mid-air by the night hag with her remaining hand. She stares at the party, her eyes red hot burning coals as she crushes the vial in her hand, allowing the divine liquid to burn her and run down her arm, smoke trails rising around it as it eats through her flesh. (6 damage) "You are quite a resourceful bunch I'll give you that!" she spits. "You may have bested me this day, in the waking world, but the dream world is where I rule! Sleep lightly, children," she grins wickedly. With that, she bolts for the portal, diving through, back into her realm.

OoC - Congrats guys. Level up time.
