This is Bazaar: Dungeon Adventure

[ToddSchumacher]

The battle continues....Marcus and Ian are equally ineffective of hitting the monster (Both rolled an 8). Griswald connects the creatures. The result being the rags and whatnot fly off the body it was wrapping (the body falls to the floor, dead) and hit griswald (2pts of damage) and manages to wrap around Griswald's arm (Both are now grappling - see grappling rules as to what he can now do).

Poto tries to make a swipe, but being cautious not to hit her companion manages to hit no one.

Marcus

Watching in shock as the rags that enshrouded the creature just moments before struck Griswald, Marcus had no desire to see the dwarven knight share the same fate as the creature at their feet.

Cursing once more at his lack of preparing before venturing into the ruins, Marcus felt helpless as he stared at the improvised club in his hands and knew that the flames would hurt Sir Griswald as well as the animated rags.

~May the gods guide my strike...~

Rushing foward, Marcus stabbed foward with the flaming brand trying his best to scorch the bottom of the creature and distract it from furthering its grip on Griswald.

Poto

"Don't worry, Gris, I'll fix you up!" Poto will circle around behind the dwarf and cast his cure light wounds spell on him.

 

[ErichDragon]

Ian

"Bloody 'ell. Hold on Gris, I'll pry the housecoat offen ya."

Ian will drop his sword and try to pull the rags off of Griswald.

Griswald manages a smile when his friends show such concern for his predicament and, with Ian's aid, attempts to remove the hostile fabrics from himself.

 

[ToddSchumacher]

Marcus tries to distract the construct with the fiery brand, but is unsuccessful.

Ian dropps his sword and grabs the creature and pulls, between him and Griswald...like some sort of tug-of-war...rip the creature in two, each holding halves of the now lifless cloth.

Poto heals Griswald for 6hps.

Poto

"Marcus, let's see if we can burn the fabric with your torch. If so, perhaps we can figure out how to use fire more effectively against these creatures if we meet them again."

Poto will examine the body of the dead creature. Does it have hooves? Poto will then examine the metal parts and gears. Can he get a sense of what it once was?

 

[Festy_Dog]

Griswald laughs at the two sections of cloth.

"Thanks for the healin' Poto," he says jovially, "Ian an' I certainly made a mess a' this one."

He holds up his half of the cloth.

 

[Badger]

Marcus

Quickly setting the torch to the tattered remnants of the animated cloth, Marcus took a quiet satisfaction when it began to burn. Smiling grimly at Sir Griswald's joke, Marcus turned and walked towards Poto to help him examine the strange mechanical construction.

"What do you think it could be Poto?"

 

[ToddSchumacher]

Poto Examines the body of the creature...it is the same type you've been fighting all along. It has no possessions other that the Rapier it was wielding. Among the wreckage, you get a sence of remains from tables and bits and pieces of the machine.

Whatever it was, from evidence of dust on it it looks like it was abandoned, like the rest of this place, in mid-construction. Never finished. As for its purpose, Marcus knows from his Arcana knowledge, that often in gnomish history, Gnome Wizards often built contructs for heavy chores among gnome communities, lifting, dragging...tunneling.
