The Underdark Primeval [IC]

Annoyed at his lack of success dmaging the stone golems, Solli curses aloud and reloads, with the intention of running along the wall, well out of reach of the massive foes, with an intention of reaching the Genasi's side without getting hurt.

-- Round 4 --

Morph steps back, drawing his wand and casting cure light on Rogoth.

Bull rears back to take another bite, but his giant insect legs slip on the steps, and he falters, failing to bite the maug.

Rogoth, regaining his feet thanks to Morph, takes a step back behind Dargo, pulls out a vial, and downs it. Morph sees his wounds start to close.

Solli fires off two darts at the nearest maug. Both bounce off the maug's armor.

Dargo continues fighting defensively, his urgrosh a whirling blur. The dwarf whips the axe end out, chopping into the Maug's stony torso. Then with a lightning fast reversal, he drives the spear end into the gouge he just created, driving the spike deep into the maug, causing splits and cracks to grow in its stone body. The maug looks down at the dwarf in shock as it crumbles to pieces.

Denasa, her rod in hand, sends another stroke of lightning toward the maug with the extra arm. The electricity jolts through the construct, and it topples, black and smoking.

Rune grabs her greatclub and powerstone, and heads towards the last remaining maug, yelling, "Hey, over here! You forgot me! Ha! Ha! You missed me! Come and find me!!"

Vuoor, rejoicing that five maugs have fallen, is the first to step up onto the temple floor. Quickly moving across it towards the last, undamaged maug, the kuo-toan tumbles into striking range and kicks, but the maug's heavy stone armor is too thick.

The last maug continues to fight. Both ends of its huge two-bladed sword crash down hard on Bull's carapace as the beetle hisses with pain.

Initiative
Morph: shillelagh
Bull: 42 damage, greater magic fang +2
Rogoth: 80 damage, raging 6 rounds
Solli: climbing, 25 ft up.
Dargo: 43 damage, fighting defensively
Denasa: 5 damage, flying 10 ft up
Rune:
Vuoor: 15 damage
Maug 1

Maug 4 (shoving arm): 74 damage, dead
Maug 5 (stone spitter): 110 damage, dead
Maug 6 (stone spitter): 79 damage, dead


OOC:
Morph heals 9 points of damage on Rogoth.
Bull attacks Maug 1 but misses: 3+11+2-1=15.
Rogoth steps back behind Dargo and drinks his potion of cure moderate wounds, healing 12 points of damage. Gaining cover from Dargo, he avoids AoOs from the maugs.
Solli reloads his weapon as he takes a double move along the wall, moving up out of the reach of the maug. He reaches the corner, 25 feet up.
Dargo hits twice with his urgrosh, once with each end. Both would have been threats, were his opponent not a construct. Nonetheless, he deals 37 damage, including energy damage.
Denasa's lightning bolt does 39 damage, and the maug fails his save. As a side note, Denasa's spell penetration feat has served her extremely well this combat!
Rune is 20 feet away from the maug.
Vuoor misses with 14+9=23.
Maug does 20 damage to Bull.
 

*Denasa gives a crow of exultation at her success with felling the next-to-last maug. Her rod exhausted for the day, Denasa relies only on her own power to destroy the last one, sending more lightning to char the nasty creature.*

OOC - Hee hee! Denasa is kicking butt and takin' names! I'm also glad I have Spell Penetration. I mean, over half the residents of the Underdark have SR it seems... *Cough* Anyways, lightning bolt, of the regular kind, at last standing target. Whee!
 

Vuoor Seakin : Kuo-Toa Monitor 5

The kua-toan continues his assault on the last remaining target with a flurry of blows.
 

Dargo Golden, Half Deep Dragon Golden Dwarf (Fighter/Ranger)

Dargo maintains his defensive posture until he gets into position. He moved to the remaining Maug, looking to stay out of the way of the raging Rogoth.

OOC: Move, single strike, fighting defensively
 


Morph uses another charge of his wand on the barbarian before he has a chance to rush back into combat. Bull will try to move on the last opponent, but as there is only one and he is large he may not have room, in which case he hangs back with Morph.
 

Allowing the combat to finish itself and knowing full well that he would make little difference at this point, the little Svirneblin searches about the room for the exit, taking great care to not get ambushed.

-- Round 5 --

Morph uses his wand on Rogoth again, healing the grimlock.

Bull snaps his jaws again, but fails to bite through the maug's armor.

Rogoth quaffs another potion as his rage wears off.

Solli continues along the wall into the room. In addition to the large altar to Moradin, there is a pair of massive stone doors to the left.

Dargo continues fighting defensively, closing on the remaining maug. The maug swings as Dargo gets within range, but stumbles and misses. Dargo swings his urgrosh, but fails to connect.

Denasa, her rod used up for the day, puts it away and casts a lightning bolt at the last maug.

Rune rushes in, landing a heavy blow on the maug with her greatclub. Bits of rubble crack and fall off the maug's armor.

Vuoor leaps in as he strikes the maug with a shattering blow from his fist, then spinning in mid air, slams his foot straight into the maug's torso. The maug's stone armor crumbles and falls off the maug's body. Then the maug itself cracks and falls to the ground in pieces.

*Denasa gives a whoop of victory, and flies down to the ground.*

"We did it, we did it!" she says with glee. "Oh pits and pools, I didn't even get your name. I'm Denasa, and this is Legs," the gloaming says to the genasi she freed, gesturing to the hand-sized spider on her shoulder. It rears up and wiggles its front legs at Rune. "What's your name, and how did you come to such a pass?"
