Message: <blockquote data-quote="fba827" data-source="post: 5232413" data-attributes="member: 807">(I'm not very good are descriptive prose, but here is the gist) ..In an abandoned city where only mindless automaton guardians still patrol the streets, the party breaks into the control room in order to disable the power source that is keeping the guardians active.With several groups of guardians chasing behind them, the party (a halforc barbarian, a young human girl touched by the gods, a gnome bard, a halfling warlock, a genasi storm sorcerer) break in and hold the door shut.A strange magical field acts like a vacuum, makes moving towards the power-source difficult while a large construct holds the power-source above its head, and a stone shield floats in front of it.Guards are trying to come in from the door that the party used as well as in from the side doors (though the side doors are still magically held since the party only disabled the main door's magic lock to enter).The raging half-orc's skin breaks out with fur and claws, in a hybrid sort of bear-halforc form and she holds the main door shut.The gnome bard somersaults up the half-orcs back to hang onto the grooves in the stone above the door to try and disable the magical gravity field.The young struggles against the gravity field but eventually makes it to the other end of the room when angelic wings sprout from her back as she flies through the air in a charge against the shield, critically damaging it.The halfling warlock hurls fire at the now-weakened shield, causing it to crumble into dust.The genasi struggles against the gravity to get close enough and blasts the control piece from the constructs hands, smashing it on the ground...causing all the automated guardians of the city to collapse...All the while, the guardians at the doors were trying to burst in, and anyone that got close to the golem was getting smacked by it.  It was getting tense every round as everyone was wondering at what moment the guardians would beat the barbarian in the battle to open/hold the door.  At one point the guardians at the door eventually did smash the door in, and a life was lost in the process, but all that was secondary to the movie moments and tension that occurred during the prior rounds.</blockquote>
