Day Two. Midday. Sunday, November 13th, 576 CY
Cold, foggy, cloudy, damp
Deep in the haunted wood, beneath the writhing moaning trees, unspeakable horrors rise from an unholy altar that serves as a diabolical harvester of blood and souls.
The repulsive cannibal atrocities continue their merciless onslaught against the wounded heroes! ( -1hp, -10hp and -2hp to Bo, Pyotr and Telkis respectively)
Pyotr is about to fall beneath that onslaught when suddenly, an angel of mercy descends upon him. Ingrid Esthof prays devout orisons of grace and her miraculous touch heals the grievous wounds and paralysis of Pyotr, bolstering his resolve to fight on (+6hp).
Long Bo also feels the icy chill of death threaten to overtake him! (Please Save vs Paralysis to act next round! I assume you no longer wish to move toward Hothhil, which would result in free attacks from Z1. So, if you make the saving throw, you have two actions next round. The first preempts all others. Good luck.)
Rudolph the hobbit flees from a nightmarish tree monster (E2) and hurls a sling stone at the heinous malefactor that delights in Urdur's suffering and pain. (Z3). The rock cracks into its skull and earns Rudolf the frightful thing's terrible attention.
Fortified and reinvigorated, Pyotr drives his enchanted harpoon with all the strength of his right arm, impaling an undead horror (Z3) to his fists, killing it!
Brevos charges the shrine and slashes Brood over the head of one of the macabre feral scourges.
Telkis Brassfang also feels the creeping tendrils of soul-chilling paralysis. It ruins his aim and his morningstar misses its target and crashes into a temple pillar. (Please Save vs Paralysis to act next round!)
Consumed with dread, Mouser vomits in his mouth as he fends off rotten, dead nails and teeth, and stabs Scalpel again and again, hacking open the reeking vitals of another unliving villain (Z2) nearly ending it!
Actions?!
