Energy from the Approvalometer (tm) pumps into her, wrapping her horns in flames.As she charges onto the elevator, the crowd begins to shout, "Go! Go! Go!" They scream in time with Vaunea's steps.The elevator flings Vaunea onto the wall. The flames about her horns turn into an interlaced web of force as she begins to run faster and faster, transforming into a bellowing blur of minotaur rage. The Legionnaires on the wall wail in terror and gnash their teeth. Suddenly, Vaunea smashes into their line, barreling down one, two, three of the skeletons. Bones fly in the air, spontaneously reforming into new Legionnaires that tumble from the wall and scatter on the ground, spawning even more of their numbers. A fourth skeleton dodges out of the way, pressing itself against the wall. As Vaunea mows down a fifth skeleton, the survivor leaps out, about to strike.Then, one of the falling, bouncing, tumbling skeletons lands on a green disk. A brilliant flash of green radiance consumes all the skeletons near the disk. Vaunea feels a wave of healing force, repairing all of her injuries. The stadium shakes with the force of the crowd's cheering."Oh my gods! Oh my gods! Oh my gods!" "Never in all my years have I seen such a feat!"The green disk transforms into a swirling black glop. All the white skeletons scream, "MINE!"All the green skeletons scream, "NO, MINE!"All the orange skeletons scream, "NO, NO, NO! MINE!"The bone-tinant screams, "No, you idiots! Stay on the wall!"The second BONESWARM! lunges forwards, closing the gap with the party. The necrotic mass attacks Erlai. [Standard: Bone Shards v. AC (<a href="http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3685#127230" target="_blank">1d20+8=28</a>); CRITICAL HIT! Erlai takes 14 damage!]There is a high-pitched grinding noise, followed by a spray of blood and feathers. Erlai goes down!Then the BONESWARM crashes against Drivan, knocking the wizard to the ground.
