<El-Cideon> Upstairs, Stephanie and Jill wait for trouble to break out elsewhere in the mansion. Downstairs, it already has: the rest of the group stands in the foyer with Duchess Ismaela and Crier, surrounded by the remains of several dead hellcats.
<Steph> "I heard some noises," Stephanie says, shaking her head. "Time to go. You're with us, right?" she asks, glancing at Jill.
<El-Cideon> Jill nods, and pushes out into the hall fully armed and armored. Whatever distant events are occurring elsewhere in the mansion, the immediate guards haven't been persuaded to leave their station--the hellhounds and the golem still mind the bedroom corridor. They don't react in any way to Jill emerging from her bedroom as usual.
<Steph> Stephanie looks about, and then decides to saunter on downstairs in search of violence and mayhem!
<El-Cideon> Stephanie finds her friends standing amidst the grizzly aftermath of a short round of infernal extermination. Rosemund waves happily. "There you are!"
<Franceska> "Have you seen the elf, by chance?" Franceska asks politely, wearing that hideous devil form.
<Steph> "Here I am," agrees Stephanie, walking up to Rosemund and patting her on the shoulder. She looks up at the devil with a frown. "You sound way too polite when you look like that," she complains, eventually. "No, the other bedrooms seemed empty. I reckon we head to the big guy's office, he's probably waiting for me to go report."
<Julia> "Hello!" Julia waves, "Lead the way?"
<Steph> Stephanie is happy enough to do that, and after briefly tapping herself with a wand-
<Steph> roll 1d20+10
<Rei-chan> 6,0Steph rolled :6,0 1d20+10 --> 6,0[ 1d20=4 ]4,0{14}
<Steph> roll 1d20+10
<Rei-chan> 6,0Steph rolled :6,0 1d20+10 --> 6,0[ 1d20=20 ]4,0{30}
<Steph> -twice, she sets off to the office in good spirits!
<El-Cideon> Jill is obviously taken aback by Franceska's transformation until she recognizes the voice. "Yes," she agrees, recovering.
<El-Cideon> As you walk along, Crier appears to look off in the distance for a moment as though listening to some far-off sound. Then she reports for Her Grace's hearing: "Lieutenant Skinner says her group found the vault. They smashed up some dogs and robots but they can't get in. Also Petran got himself killed." Ismaela shrugs. "We'll fix that later. Tell her stop trying to loot the place before everyone's dead and go find Masuko's group." Once you make it to the office corridor, there is no one evidently in sight.
<Steph> "Arright, any magic on the door?"
* Franceska takes a look!
<El-Cideon> Franceska detects nothing magical in the immediate vicinity.
<Steph> With this noted, Stephanie walks up to the door and tries to shove it open.
<El-Cideon> Stephanie causes some mild inconvenience to her shoulder from attempting to push through a locked door.
<Julia> "Bedford, open the door!" Julia cries in delight as it remains stubbornly closed. "Er, move aside, Stephanie?" she adds as the skeletal nightmare charges forward to barrel through it!
<Julia> roll 1d20+14 strength check with charge?
<Rei-chan> 6,0Julia rolled :6,0 1d20+14 1,0strength check with charge? --> 6,0[ 1d20=19 ]4,0{33}
<Steph> Stpehanie turns around to glance at Julia, with lockpicks in her fingers. "Um, er, ah!" she yelps, stepping out the way.
* Franceska imbues herself with the greatest strength she can channel!
<El-Cideon> An unguarded door can stand for only so long without anyone around to protect it! Actually, it takes only a single charge for the nightmare to smash the door right off its hinges into the office--which proves to be depopulated at this time. There are a lot of books, an empty desk, a grand mural of glorious battle, but no greater devil to be seen.
<Julia> "Well that's disappointing," Julia disapproves, having hoped the door might have splattered someone.
<Steph> "Figures," grumbles Stephanie, looking around for a moment before turning back. "He probably teleported off when we gatecrashed the house. We might just need to grab'n'go, if you get me?"
<Franceska> "That would be a pretty serious loss of face to a devil of his caliber," Franceska notes. "He might survive the attack, but not when the others go after him as he's perceived weak."
<Julia> "He might come back with lots of friends," Julia suggests. "But where do we go now?"
<El-Cideon> "Huh," Ismaela grunts. "You think he'd abandon his home so easily? Most like he went to regroup with his underlings."
<Franceska> "If not the office, he did have a throne room, I believe?"
<Steph> "Well, if he wants to defend anywhere, it's gonna be the vault, yeah?"
<Steph> She pauses. "Or he'll take out the ship, that'd be smart, too."
<El-Cideon> Jill nods to Franceska. "He won't be running to anyone for help. Whoever he asked would only take advantage of his situation afterward. A devil who lets everyone know he can't keep his house in order won't retain his position."
<Julia> "Lets try the throne first?" Julia suggests, calling Bedford back over.
<Steph> "Send Thing to check out the vault," suggests Stephanie, before heading back to the throne room.
<Julia> "I really need him with me right now," Julia says apologetically, not wanting to lose her familiar and the precious spell he has prepared on him.
<Steph> Stephanie shrugs at that revelation. Mages!
<El-Cideon> Proceeding to the throne room, the group finds that the forward area of the mansion continues to prove weirdly depopulated. It's quite impressive, with a chair constructed from polished black bone, and shafts in the floor hosting decorative and ever-dancing gouts of flame, and a picture window overlooking the dubious panorama of Jangling Hiter, but it's also quite empty. Again Crier speaks up for her boss. "Lieutenant Masuko says they found a gith lady and killed her along with some troublesome statues, Your Grace." She spares her nod for her more recent traveling companions. "I guess that'd be Calpernia?"
<Julia> "Sounds like her," Julia nods, glad someone's making progress.
<Franceska> "This really is quite strange," Franceska muses. "Miss Cook, would you have any idea where to try looking next?"
<El-Cideon> "There's a dungeon level 'round back somewhere," Jill recalls, with what sounds like some unwelcome personal familiarity. "If nothing else, it would be secure?"
<Franceska> "Let's give it a try, then."
<El-Cideon> "Tell him to sweep the rooms upstairs for stragglers," Ismaela orders back. "We'll be heading for the basement." Jill leads the way back into the garden, where the ship still waits. Sylvia looks to have taken refuge belowdecks. As you enter the room, you notice a trio of hellhounds has sauntered in and taken position at the far door. They're presently engaged in a growling match with the wolves aboard the Titan's Carcass but look committed to warding their present station.
<Julia> "Such well behaved dogs," Julia says approvingly. "Are they in our way or is the basement elsewhere?"
<El-Cideon> "They're in our way," Jill confirms, readying her sword.
<Steph> "Whaddya reckon? Ten or twenty seconds?" muses Stephanie, bouncing on her heels.
<El-Cideon> "Five," Ismaela says dismissively, flexing her claws.
<El-Cideon> It's at this point that something huge barrels through the glass ceiling above and jagged shards rain down upon all within.

<El-Cideon> Amidst a pummeling Minauros rain now freed to lacerate the garden, the enormous interloper uncoils itself into the shape of a great crimson dragon. It spreads its wings impressively, looking down upon you and chiding in a familiar feminine voice now somewhat deeper with menacing harmonics. "Such ill-mannered guests. We extend you every hospitality and this how you repay us? Is there no cherished tradition of guestright in human lands?" the dragon mocks as shards of glass crash and shatter to the ground all around her.
<El-Cideon> OOC: init happens now

<El-Cideon> "I suppose you left your customs at home, then," Scarlet says dismissively.
<Franceska> "This was an infiltration rather than a visit," Franceska tells her pleasantly. "No hard feelings, I trust?"
<El-Cideon> At a hissed command from its mistress, the winter wolf presently holds its position. One of the hellhounds charges up to stand rank with Scarlet, some forty feet off from the main party.
<El-Cideon> OOC: Julia/Thing/mercs are up
<El-Cideon> "So long as you've none about my pets gnawing your charred bones either," Scarlet agrees.
<Franceska> "It is a much fairer outcome than raising my dead corpse as a minion," Franceska concludes, inclining her head.
<Julia> Thing remains hidden rather than go up against a dragon, and thankfully Julia isn't prompting him to. "Only Bedford's bones are for gnawing, and that might be more than they can bite!" she retorts, throwing out waves of strength-sapping necromancy across the dragon and the dogs!

<El-Cideon> With a faint symphony akin to the *tink* of metal changing shape under extremes of pressure, Ismaela's iron-black carapace simmers a dull red from the inside as she charges forward to slash once at the largest target available. Crier takes the opportunity to summon up a wall of flashing blades cutting through the great dragon and cutting her off from her hindmost pets.

<Steph> While Stephanie considers jumping at the dragon and tearing it to shreds, she has a suspicion that her initial volley won't be enough (as it so often is). It certainly beats lunging for the hellhound on the other side, though- Stephanie rushes towards her target, and her body wisps and vanishes from sight by the time she reaches it!

<El-Cideon> The selective severing of arteries turns the magnificent draconic beast into little more than a collection of crimson fountains. Scarlet collapses to the ground in a heap of dead meat with what might be perceived as a bemused expression on her toothy maw.

<El-Cideon> With a disturbing eagerness for carnage, the Duchess easily rends the mortally wounded creature limb from limb!
<El-Cideon> OOC: free act
<Julia> Having prepped the area, Julia bends over to place a fist sized onyx inside the dragon's mouth. Then she stands and calls out, "Shed your mortality and rise! Rise to serve me!" as an unholy gleam fills the dragon's glassy eyes and it slowly shambles up to its feet.
<Franceska> "You should have fled when you had the chance," Franceska asserts before the dragon's zombified corpse.

<El-Cideon> "It's no good taunting a corpse," Crier reminds Franceska. "You have to make sure to do that while they're alive to appreciate it!"
<Franceska> "I did, in fact, taunt her while she was still alive," Franceska defends herself. "This is merely myself gloating after the fact."
<El-Cideon> "Oh, okay." Crier nods, sounding as though her company has imbued her with much prior experience on this subject as well.
<Steph> Stephanie flickers back into existence. She looks a little dispirited, and pokes the dragon's remains with her toe.
<Franceska> "In any case, this is not the worst possible death I've helped bring about. No, that honor is reserved for a person who deserved it very much."
<El-Cideon> "Who was it?" Ismaela rumbles with distinct interest as her chitinous shell cools down and resumes its usual appearance.
<Franceska> "One of your previous employers, as it happens, if I'm not mistaken. I believe she had a violent disagreement with Her Grace? Her death was truly hideous and shall be remembered for generations."
<Julia> "Her name is Scarlet," Julia helpfully informs the Duchess. "Up till now she wore the form of a human."
<Franceska> "Ah yes. The dragon was indeed Scarlet, the head maid here in the mansion."
<Steph> "Are, wait, wait! Are any of you guys bards?"
<El-Cideon> A chorus of negatives greets Stephanie's query.
<El-Cideon> "We should press on," Jill suggests, eyeing the walking carcass of her former coworker with some unease.
<Julia> OOC: is the door sized to admit huge things?
<Franceska> "Oh, certainly," Franceska agrees, doing so.
<Steph> "I.. geez, is there a song in that? It was over so fast," mumbles Stephanie, looking balefully at the dragon, before she lights up. "Hey, undead things are harder to tear up, that's right! Julia, you gotta let us have round two someday, I bet she wasn't really trying!"
<El-Cideon> OOC: this door is, but many in the mansion are not. Depends on where you need to go.
<Julia> "No, I've wanted a dragon for ages, you can't just tear her up after I got her!" Julia complains, placing a hand protectively on Scarlet's neck.
<Steph> Stephanie folds her arms with a pout, one likely hidden behind the absurd amount of blood her latest murder has got her covered in.
<Julia> "Anyway, lets go on? Scarlet and Bedford can lead the way."
<El-Cideon> "Sometimes the dead should stay dead," Jill asserts. Duchess Ismaela orders her wolves back to guarding the ship and follows the paladin out the far end of the garden. To the right in the corridor beyond it are a broad arc of scorched wall and the scattered remains of what might have been a golem. Jill strides onward to the left instead. Within a statuary-filled atrium, she pauses before a secure-looking metal door.
<Steph> "Any magic on this one?"
<Julia> "Do you want to pick its locks?" Julia asks Stephanie since she deprived her of the chance last time.
<El-Cideon> Crier looks distracted for a moment. "The El-tees beat up some more dogs and robots upstairs and broke into the boss's room. Skinner's disappointed since there's no money in it, just lots and lots files." Ismaela merely grunts affirmation, not sounding interested in what a devil might write in private. As for the door, Franceska should notice there is an aura around it.
<Steph> Stephanie shrugs. "Um, it's probably easier if you just break it down with your huge... things."

<Franceska> "Especially when there is a glyph of warding on the door," Franceska muses, stepping back and pulling Rosemund with her.
<Julia> "Alright. Bedford, you know what to do?" she tells her skeletal nightmare. Except he doesn't know anything what with lacking a brain. After a beat Julia adds, "Go knock down that door!" She likewise steps back afterwards on hearing Franceska.

<Franceska> A reasonably sensible suggestion, and so Franceska empowers herself again before heading in right after Scarlet.

<El-Cideon> Rosemund chants a benediction to bolster the party in general! (OOC: Bless for 14 minutes, +1 morale bonus to attacks/saves vs fear)
<El-Cideon> The stairway leads deep under the mansion, through a stone foundation dripping with the sickly moisture ever-present in all the depths of Minauros. A dark, metallic chuckle echoes out below you as Scarlet pokes her zombified head out into the room at the bottom of the stairs. You shortly emerge in a large room lined all along the walls with torture implements. All manner of elaborate and exquisitely crafted devices lurk here, but most look to suffer from serious rust and neglect, and to have been roughly pushed against the walls very recently--you can still see the dust trails in the floor. Standing guard before a modest door on the far side of the room is Krae's personal guard, Phalaris, leaning lazily upon his monstrous metal club. A hellhound pants lazily at his side, and golems of stone and metal flank him. "Not so tough as she liked to think," Phalaris observes of Scarlet with ill humor.
<Franceska> "Yes, it was quite the letdown on our side," Franceska agrees. "Are you as tough as you present yourself?"
<Steph> "It's alright to be humble, you know. Ain't you devils all about knowing your place?"
<Julia> Julia looks sourly at all the obvious constructs before focusing her gaze on the hellhound. He will be her opponent today!
<El-Cideon> Phalaris flexes a metal hand, crusted with old blood or rust or both. "I scorn weakness," he confirms. "Of body or spirit." He spares Jill a look as though accusing her of the latter on grounds of disloyalty.
<Franceska> "Let's put that to the test, then, shall we?"

<El-Cideon> roll 2d10+9
<Rei-chan> 6,0El-Cideon rolled :6,0 2d10+9 --> 6,0[ 2d10=10 ]4,0{19}
<El-Cideon> Her Grace's fiendish resistance appears to blunt the worst of the blow, however.
<El-Cideon> OOC: Julia + iron golem
<Julia> She's unsure if it'll work, but she really doesn't want Phaleris getting away. Besides, if he feels fear surely he must be vulnerable to other necromancy! Pointing at the fleeing figure in steel, a spectral copy of her index finger detaches itself and flies after him until it touches his neck... with deadly results!
<Julia> OOC: DC 27 fort, death if fails, some damage if succeeds. Finger of Death.
<El-Cideon> roll 1d20+21-2 his good save, unfortunately
<Rei-chan> 6,0El-Cideon rolled :6,0 1d20+21 1,0his good save, unfortunately --> 6,0[ 1d20=7 ]4,0{26}
<El-Cideon> Phalaris stops in his tracks, drops to his knees, and then tumbles face forward onto the ground with a metal CLANG that echoes all around the room!

<El-Cideon> Scarlet whaps the golem, staggering it but not quite knocking it down yet. Crier taps her foot and watches. "Like, good luck Your Grace!" she cheers from afar. Meanwhile, Rosemund tries to bash the stone golem down at last.

<El-Cideon> She doesn't quite succeed, but the golem is little more than a collection of barely adhering fragments at this point.
<El-Cideon> OOC: Fran then Bedford
<Franceska> She's clearly on the right track! And so Franceska continues with her efforts at putting the golem down in a swift and orderly fashion.

<Rei-chan> 6,0Franceska rolled :6,0 2d6+24+8 --> 6,0[ 2d6=7 ]4,0{39}
<El-Cideon> Bedford is verily successful at stealing Rosemund's glory. Bedford snaps off the golem's head and its body falls to pieces, at about the same time Fran's enemy falls as well!
<El-Cideon> OOC: free act
<Franceska> "Excellent," she says, heading over to the door Phalaris was guarding earlier.
<Julia> "Nicely synchronised!" Julia applauds politely, before healing Bedford some more.
<El-Cideon> It's an ordinary metal dungeon door, albeit a little on the small side to admit the likes of dragons.
<Julia> roll 2#3d8+16 2 inflict serious
<Rei-chan> 6,0Julia rolled :6,0 2#3d8+16 1,02 inflict serious --> 6,0[ 3d8=10 ]4,0{26}, 6,0[ 3d8=15 ]4,0{31}
<Steph> "Huh. You really took that guy apart.," notes Stephanie, walking towards the golem's head and tapping it to see if it's hollow.
<Franceska> It looks like a job for Stephanie, so after making sure there is no magic upon it she sets herself on righteous fire!
<El-Cideon> Crier prods Phalaris's prone body with a foot, and then steps away to mend her own wounds.
<El-Cideon> roll 2d8+10

<Rei-chan> 6,0El-Cideon rolled :6,0 1d8+5 --> 6,0[ 1d8=2 ]4,0{7}
<El-Cideon> "Good enough," she decides, admiring a nice long gash added to the collection on her right arm.
<Steph> Stephanie eventually gets bored, and wanders toward the dungeon door to try and pick it open.
<El-Cideon> Stephanie finds the golem quite solid indeed! Just inert.
<Steph> roll 1d20+25 devices, disabled?
<Rei-chan> 6,0Steph rolled :6,0 1d20+25 1,0devices, disabled? --> 6,0[ 1d20=7 ]4,0{32}
<El-Cideon> Stephanie has no difficulty unworking this lock. No magic assaults her this time either.
<El-Cideon> The Duchess cools down and strolls over to Phalaris. "I want to see what's in here," she says, kneeling down to try and pry apart the armor plates.
<El-Cideon> roll 1d20+8
<Rei-chan> 6,0El-Cideon rolled :6,0 1d20+8 --> 6,0[ 1d20=13 ]4,0{21}
<Julia> "I'm a bit curious too..." Julia admits, peering over at the corpse. He's not a golem after all! Is he even a minotaur?
<Franceska> "My guess would be a midget of some kind."
<El-Cideon> With some grunting effort and a disturbing flexing of thorned anatomy, Ismaela manages to haul off the dead bodyguard's chest plate. Beneath the heavy sheet of metal is a human body, quite lifeless. It's a slight, rather short man of no obvious physical virtue, quite dwarfed by his armor. He looks to have been extremely badly burned at some point, but the waxy scar tissue looks old rather than recent.
<Franceska> It's a good opportunity to cast another defensive spell, however, and thorns spring up all over her skin and make her devil self even more hideous as a result.
<Franceska> "Called it."
<El-Cideon> Crier nods to Franceska. "That's always how it is, right?"
* Franceska nods back.
<Julia> "Probably the armour did all the work... wonder if Thing could fit in there?" Julia wonders but dismisses it as unimportant. Thing relies on stealth more than strength after all.
