(YBA) Drax in Wicht's Lair

[Wicht]

If any of you were in roughly the same area i have thought about doing that - but so far no one has crossed paths.

The other door opens onto another cavern room. This one however is filled with piles of useless junk. It looks like a storage closet of some sort and Drax is pretty sure he sees a mop and a broom in one corner.

There is a tunnel heading out of here to the south.

As Drax looks around, he suddenly hears movement in the northwest corner of the room. Something back there just moved.

 

[Dalamar]

Drax raises his torch higher and moves closer to see what's moving back there.
Maybe it's another of those dead rats... or maybe not.

 

[Wicht]

As Drax moves back intot he room to find the source of the noise, his intuition is proven correct when a rotting rat leaps out of the darkness to attack

[Dalamar]

The snake slides by the beach; shreds the beauty of the flower!

Should've guessed. I should've already learned not to summon trouble to me when it seems to find me without help.
Drax, seeing the rat leap out of the shadows, lowers down and, almost literally, slithers under the leaping undead and tries to hit it with his torch.

 

[Wicht]

The rat bites Drax for 1 hit and then tries to climb his head and scratch his eyes out

[Wicht]

Kalath kicks the rat, knocking it back. But apparently its undead brains do not realize it is outclassed. It leaps again.

[Dalamar]

The claw vigorously slashes the peaks; leaps over the terror of the lash!
FoF:The crane shatters the cavern; quells the push of the mire!

As the rat leaps at him, Drax's adrenaling jumps in. He feels as if everything is moving in slow motion, except himself. He raises his swords infront of himself and tries a double strike at the leaping rat.

 

[Wicht]

The rat falls to the ground unmoving after Drax's furious attack. Drax gains 1/2 an experience point. Searching the area from which the rat emerged, Drax discovers a hole in the north part of the room, behind some crates. It is about two feet or so in diameter, just big enough for a single person to crawl through.

 

[Dalamar]

"Well what have we here?"
Drax seathes his swords and crouches to the hole. He tries to see if the tunnel leads to the second floor or just to a hidden room behind the wall.
