[QUOTE="James McMurray, post: 1371781, member: 743"] The large room behind the door is cone shaped and empty. At its far end on the right-hand wall is a single wooden door. Fearing a trap, the party splits up and heads towards the door. As Toshiro reaches it he grabs he handle, and a colossal creature out of nightmare appears in the center of the room. Its dark brown mottled hide is easily a foot thick, and is covered in a sickly pink carapace. Two giant horns protrude from above the giant beast’s eyes. It walks upright on its hind legs, balancing with a tail the size of a barn. Its forelegs end in claws like giant lances, and its mouth is filled with 1,000 sword-like teeth. The party springs into action, with the reflexes of Erebus being fastest. Seemingly before the beast can move he leaps in and readies to strike with his mighty scythe. But the beast is even faster, and grabs the half-dragon up in its jaws, shaking him like a terrier with a rat. Ru Ton Pe and Toshiro also move forward to attack, while Farlight prepares himself for the battle. He calls out to Bumtin to drain the beast, hoping to do to it what they did to the great wyrm dragon, bringing it low with negative energy. But when the gnome sorcerer sends out his maximized and empowered ray, it bounces off of the creature’s carapace and flies directly back at the surprised gnome, who feels his strength sapped by his own magics. A follow-up delayed blast fireball also fails to hurt the creature. Meanwhile, Erebus draws his Last Resort, a short sword specifically designed to be used I a grapple, but the meager damage he deals is healed almost instantly. The dreadful beast lays about it with its claws, nearly bringing one of the warriors down, but Farlight’s magics again save a life. Bumtin repairs his shattered life force with a minor wish, but cannot regain the lost spells hat were ripped from his mind when the black ray him. Erebus teleports away and begins to spring attack the creature in order to void being eaten again, and this time it latches onto Ru Ton Pe, swallowing the holy monk whole. Ru Ton Pe steps [I]away[/I] and reappears next to the priest of Corellon, while Toshiro continues to hit and be hit. The battle rages for over a minute, and finally the party brings the huge beast down. But it appears they will not be able to keep it down, as nothing they can do stops its regeneration. Nothing that is until Farlight decides call upon Corellon himself for intervention. The God of Elves draws strength from his high priest and uses that energy to completely annihilate the body of the dreaded Tarrasque. [/QUOTE]
