Re: Session 1: The Citadel
Kelben shakes his head clearly trying to be the voice of reason that went ignored he draws his sword out and prepares to fight the undead creature.

Re: Session 1: The Citadel

Death Saving Throws
Round 1
The creature forcefully ejects itself from the unbound sarcophagus and slowly swivels its head as surveying its potential victims, snarling in the process:
Then, with surprising quickness, the green-skinned abomination attacks ferociously, diving at Kelben face first, clamping its powerful jaws down on the unsuspecting gnome... who feels his life force drain from him as he slips into a state of unconsciousness (-9 hp).
As the creature snarls and lunges at Kelben, Sky produces her rapier and lunges at the creature, sinking her blade deep into the creatures rubbery hide eliciting a pained yelp.
Auborn follows-up with a rapid pair of short sword attacks. His first swipe seems to bounce harmlessly off the creature's thick skin, but he applies some extra force behind his second attack which is perfectly placed and draws more blood!
Klilxuac considers his action.
---
Kelben seems to be a magnet for attacks. Naturally, he takes just enough damage to drop to zero hit points which makes him incapacitated and has him falling unconscious. Sadly, he is going to need to start making death saving throws again.
I will wait until tomorrow for Scott308 to conclude round 1.
Everyone else, please feel free to provide your round 2 movement and actions, plus any rolls.

Aubron
The ranger moved quickly when he saw the gnome get slashed. He went around to the backside with his weapons at the ready. When the timing was right, he slashed at the beast again. His swords went in a flash and blur as they struck true. However, they appeared to be merely superficial cuts which gave Aubron concern.

Sky
The blur of action quickly comes into focus for Sky. She sees her gnome friend fall yet again, which gives her pause.
Sky alters tactics and starts hurling insults at the creature, in Infernal. Which, by its very nature, makes them much more impressive. It translates loosely to "Pig banging turd sack."

Seeing something burst out of the sarcophagus, the sorcerer quickly casts Magic Missile, sending three bolts of energy streaking toward the dragonpriest.

Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible.

Initiative Order
Death Saving Throws
End of Round 1
Seeing something burst out of the sarcophagus, Klilxuac quickly casts Magic Missile, sending three bolts of energy streaking toward the dragonpriest, peppering it with a volley of force damage.
Round 2
The dragonpriest shifts its focus to Auborn and lunges at the elf, locking its jaws on his shoulder and ripping through his leather armor as if it didn't exist (-11 hp). The ranger teeters on the brink of losing consciousness, but wins the struggle and manages to steady himself.
Klilxuac, successful with his first spell attack, turns to his trusted Fire Bolt cantrip, hurling a tiny fleck of fire at a creature, which strikes it true and, while its damage seemed to be minimal, the dragonepriest seemed to be really upset by it!
Sky witnesses her gnome friend fall yet again, which gives her pause. The cat-bard begins hurling insults at the creature, in Infernal, effectively calling it a 'Pig banging turd sack.' While the creature doesn't appear to understand the insults being hurled in its direction, it does seem to be affected by it.
Auborn manages to stay on his feet and staggers around to the creatures back side. He jabs at the dragonpriest with his pair of short swords and manages to break through its rubbery skin with the first of the two.
Kelben remains unconscious, but his condition doesn't worsen.
The battle rages on!

Aubron
Aubron wavered as the dragonpriest tore into his shoulder. He screamed in pain as blood flowed from his skin along the creature's mouth. The situation looked dire, and the elf knew that he may only have one more chance at ending this things' undead life. Aubron looked around and noticed the gnome was starting to stabilize and the other two were doing the best they could. "Solonor, I may come to you soon. I pray you prepare a place for me amongst the tree of life," he thought to himself.
He readied his shortswords for one last hurrah before his potential demise and struck at the undead priest with all the speed and fury he could muster.

Sky continues her verbal barrage, switching to Common. "Ashardalon is disappointed in what you have become." She whispers just loudly enough for the creature to hear.

Qelgrax Klilxuac
Continuing to alternate attacks, Klilxuac goes back to his hardest hitting spell, to guarantee damage, hoping to kill the dead priest before any more of the party goes down. Once more, three bolts of force energy streak forth from his hand, hitting the dragonpriest.

Round 3
The dragonpriest, laboring, keeps its focus on the side of the room with the exit and elects to turn Sky into its next snack. Lunging, jaws open, it manages to successfully nip the bard, but the tabaxi manages to jump aside and minimize the damage taken (-5).
Klilxuac determines the dragonpriest is a significant enough threat that he calls upon his most damaging spell -- his last -- and shoots three bolts of force energy from his hand, striking the green-skinned creature which shrieks in pain!
"Ashardalon is disappointed in what you have become," Sky continues her verbal barrage, switching to the Common tongue. Her second attempt, in a second language, also appears to have any effect on the reeling creature.
Aubron screams as he fights to ignore the pain his shoulder. The elf says a quick prayer to his god as he readies his short swords for what he hopes will be the final hurrah. The ranger sticks the point of his first blade into the back of the dragonpriest and feel her sword being pulled from her as the horror begins to crash to the ground!
The green-skinned abomination lies motionless on the floor at the base of the opened sarcophagus.

Sky
Sky is quite glad to see the creature fall, although she is a bit indignant at his final choice of target. "Can you believe that guy? He actually bit me! Who does that?"
She continues ranting while removing the rings and amulet from the creature. "Hey. Is that flame over there an illusion, or is it actually fire?"
Once done with the removal of the jewelry, Sky climbs in the box. She sits and starts licking her wound.

Aubron
The elf noticed as the green skinned horror fell at the mercy of his short sword. Though, there was little time to waste as the gnome was hurting badly. He ripped a piece of cloth and tied it around Kelben's wounds, and noticed immediately that he was going to be alright.
Once the gnome was stabilized, Aubron started to examine the body of the dragon priestess and her sarcophagus to determine if there were any belongings within that may yield some clues to the mystery of the healing apple. He tried to recall any religious connections that this sect may have and the markings in this creature's chamber.

"Can you believe that guy? He actually bit me! Who does that?" Sky purrs, quite glad to see the creature fall. She bounds up on top of the sarcophagus where the dragonpriest's body lies and continues ranting while removing the rings and amulet from the creature. "Hey. Is that flame over there an illusion, or is it actually fire?" she asks while she begins to lick her wounds and clean her fur. Klilxuac assures the half-cat that the light is not real fire, but a regular torch that will magically stay lit indefinitely by magical means.
After watching the beast fall, Auborn quickly moves to the side of Kelben and rips a piece of cloth, tying it around the gnome's wounds. Comforted that the rogue appears to be stable, the ranger turns and shifts his focus towards the dragonpriest and sarcophagus.
Auborn and Klilxuac, peering inside the sarcophagus, discover a collection of silver (220) and gold (50) coins line the bottom of it. The top of what appears to be a scroll case protrudes from the gathering of coins.
The dead body of the dragonpriest, half inside the sarcophagus and half out, lies motionless.

Re: Session 1: The Citadel
Qelgrax Klilxuac
Plucking the scroll from the coins, the dragonborn points out the obvious. This must be the magic I sensed. Let's take a look and see what's inside. He will then open the case and examine the scroll.

Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

Scroll
"This must be the magic I sensed," Klilxuac says, freeing the scroll case from its coin bath. "Let's take a look and see what's inside," he says, sliding the top of the case open. Looking inside, the dragonborn spies multiple wrapped documents which he carefully slides out and examines. In total, four rolled up sheets of parchment are discovered, each with the magical writing of a spell inscribed upon it:
At almost the same time, the form of dragonpriest, which had been lying half inside the sarcophagus, stirs back to life and springs fully to the floor next to Klilxuac.
"De er mine!" the rejuvenated creature says in a deep but subdued voice; extending a clawed finger in the dragonborn's direction. "De er mine!" it booms.
While the dragonpriest is speaking in a language none of you speak, but the words seems very close to those spoken in the 'common' tongue.

Re: Session 1: The Citadel
Aubron
While Killuax is examining the treasures, what was thought to be a 'dead' dragonpriest roared back to life. It reminded him of the trolls in the bogs where fire is the only thing that actually kills them. Maybe the green fire has the same effect here, he thought. Regardless, Aubron's first priority was re-death. With space between he and the monster, Aubron moved into a more favorable position, loaded an arrow into his longbow and let loose.
