Session 5-2a! Braaains! Braaai...Hm...Beast Rider! Yum!!

[Merc]

[08:16] <SuperSwordGirlAna> So the sun is setting deep into the blue/orange sky of dusk as the friends regather. Having taken the time to gird themselves, rest, and prepare, they gather on the very outskirts of town. A small squad of ten men waits for them, their burly leader respectfully giving way to Gavin. "Sir, do you wish to assume command?" he asks outright, "As you are the ranking officer."
[08:17] <SirGavin> "You know your men better than I and the area better than I.  There's little time for you to pass that on to me, so rather than risk your men unnecessarily, we'll follow you."
[08:19] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Aye," he nods gruffly, though not rudely at all. "You heard 'im! Yer still takin' orders from me, so let's move! It's a few miles, so get your asses in GEAR!"
[08:20] * SirGavin heads with the men, staying towards the front of the groups.
[08:21] * Seryf snickers softly, tapping one boot nervously against the ground. "I forgot what sergeants were like..." she muses to herself.
[08:21] <Saul> "Hold a moment," murmurs Saul to the commander, standing just nearby. "An informant of ours should be arriving shortly.. just a little extra information that may serve me well on this trip."
[08:22] <SuperSwordGirlAna> So the men rapidly fall in two columns of five, spearmen marching...and stopping. "Aye..." he considers a moment. "Fine, but not long. I would rather do this at nightfall than at the heart of midnight.
[08:22] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "
[08:22] <Saul> "Induitably. He should not be much longer.. in theory."
[08:24] <Elaine> "Who's supposed to be coming?" Elaine asks.
[08:24] * Darius yawns leans on the pommel of his saddle.
[08:25] <Saul> "Our mutual friend," replies Saul, thinking. "I had VOlte do a little spying for me.. though I did forget to tell him exactly when to report to me. Hmm."
[08:26] * Darius raises an eyebrow at Saul.
[08:26] <Darius> "Think he's gonna come back?"
[08:27] * SirGavin blinks.
[08:27] <Seryf> "Yes, or Demetrius will spit him over a low fire," Seryf answers, smiling a little more than she probably should.
[08:27] <SirGavin> "You're wasting your time with Volte?" Gavin raised an eyebrow, his voice a bit dismissive of any worth from such things.
[08:28] <Saul> "He is not entirely worthless," replies Saul. "Not to worry. I don't think he'll be reporting anytime soon.. hmm. Carry on, commander."
[08:29] * Darius rides up next to Gavin.
[08:29] <Darius> "'Ey, you want me to ride scout?"
[08:29] * SirGavin glances at Darius, seeing if he wants something.
[08:30] <SirGavin> "Check with him, but probably best we stay together.  Keep anyone from getting swamped alone.
[08:30] * Saul glances across the soldiers, checking to see if they are carrying torches.
[08:31] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As the troops march on, more than a few looks at Serith but mostly well organized soldiers, their seargant leads you along. It's a smooth path so far, out the city on a side route. Each has two torches on their belt, and little pouches that hopefully contain tinder.
[08:31] * Darius rides up next to the Sergant.
[08:32] <Darius> "'Ey, you need someone to scout for ya?"
[08:33] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Keeping an eye on the beast more than the man - "If you want, if you wanna stumble on blind. There isn't much to see until the crypt, aye."
[08:33] * Darius shrugs.
[08:33] <Darius> "Eh, it's your land. If ya don't think a scout's needed, I'm up for a restful ride."
[08:34] * Darius swings back around and falls into line next to Seryf.
[08:37] <SuperSwordGirlAna> The path starts with some trees, but theses soon thin out. This particular stretch is different - quite as the sunsets. Far too quiet, only a howl of wolves to light the air as the last reds of the sunset fade into purple and black. Clouds begin to pass by, torches lit by the soldiers. The ground is short grass, unhealthy and yellowing - you note some of the soldiers keeping a fairly good eye on that, looking to it more than usual.
[08:40] <SirGavin> "Take it the ground usually isn't as ragged this time of year?"
[08:41] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Spitting down at the ground, "By Orial, keep us from Grinoda and these damned...things," a common soldier states loudly, as the leader looks back. "No."
[08:42] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20
[08:42] * Saul sets mode: +o Serith
[08:42] * SuperSwordGirlAna sets mode: +v Serith
[08:42] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20
[08:42] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=13 ]{13}
[08:45] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Serith's ears slick back against her head, her posture becoming defensive as you go on, night falling. Torches are lit, a short pause for them.
[08:50] * SirGavin is staying near the front and near the commander (assuming he's doing the same, if not, near another guard with a torch.
[08:51] * Saul walks alongside the troop formation, apparently deep in thought.
[08:51] * Seryf draws Sun, humming softly to herself. To torch or not to torch...mmmm. Deciding she's more useful with swords, Seryf summons Moon. She needs the practice with the smaller blade, besides that its magical nature might be better off against undead than her normal blades. So armed, she sticks to a flank of the main troop mass.
[08:54] * Darius draws his Scimitars, laying the flats of his blades across his thighs, grip tight on them.
[08:56] * Elaine joins the torch-bearing group as she carries one in her right hand, Silmara in her left, staying near Seryf as they continue walking.
[08:57] * Darius swings around the column of soldiers to take position next to Gavin.
[08:59] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Deeper into the nightfall they head! Soon the grass is gone entirely, hard caked dirt, parched and dry. But ahead isa  large, metal fenced in area. As you approach teh scan rising moonlight winks out, a cloud passing over the moon! All you can see is off torchlight, a flickering group of graves, buildings and cairns. In the far bac is a large tomb, just visible as you get closer to the closed gate.
[08:59] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Serith stops dead on as you get closer, a growl that carries deeply in the unnaturally quiet evening.
[09:00] * SirGavin looks around, keeping his eyes open for any movement along the ground.
[09:01] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20
[09:01] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=10 ]{10}
[09:01] * Darius pats Serith's neck and urges her forward a bit.
[09:02] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Gavin. Mmm. Roll a d20?
[09:03] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Call it a int check, I suppose, though it's one of those vaguely hard to define checks.
[09:04] <SirGavin> roll 1d20
[09:04] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 1d20=12 ]{12}
[09:05] <SuperSwordGirlAna> The troops shuffle, spears carried in one hand and torches in the other. Their whiskery faces are beginning to show worry in the torchlight...
[09:05] <Saul> "
[09:06] * Darius scans the area as Serith paces back and forth in a small circle.
[09:07] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Int check, Darius.
[09:07] <Darius> roll d20
[09:07] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=5 ]{5}
[09:08] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Alright!" Not shouted but virtually cracking with command, "Form a line! Five men around with two hands for spearguard, and five in back with torches! We're goign to play this safe and careful!"
[09:08] * Saul quietly casts a quick spell of defense, assuming that if there are undead to be found, they'll show themselves sooner, rather than later, and during combat he will have other spells to cast.
[09:08] <SirGavin> "Let's keep from standing on the torn up parts." Gavin pointed them out a bit, suggesting.
[09:10] * Darius nods to Gavin, having seen it too..
[09:10] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "What?" The seargant looks ahead, squinting. "Aye, I see 'em now. Good eyes on you, sir." Nodding to his men, "Stay on level ground if possible, and we'll proceed. I'll take point." Hand resting on his blade, the seargant heads to teh gate!
[09:12] * SirGavin flanks the Seargant on his left.
[09:12] * Darius joins the line to the right of the Sergant.
[09:13] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Aye," he nods to both, "Good to 'ave men of steel and resolve by me." Drawing a wickedly heavy two handed sword out at last, "Let's give these bastards hell."
[09:13] * Darius readies his blades, keeping his arms loose and relaxed, but his grip firm.
[09:13] * Seryf frowns at the graveyard they're heading into. Tapping Elaine's wrist, she begins shifting back. "We'll cover the rear, they could come from anywhere around us," she explains quietly.
[09:14] * SirGavin draws his blade as well, nodding in agreement.
[09:14] * Elaine nods in agreement as she continues to stay near Seryf, as having little experience with military tactics, she might be best to follow until they get immersed into battle.
[09:14] * Darius calls back over his shoulder..
[09:15] * Saul withdraws somewhere in the middle of the formation, calmly watching the proceedings.
[09:15] <SuperSwordGirlAna> The gate is bound with a bit of iron chain, a simple lock attached. Taking out a rusty red key, the lock is turned, squealing! A loud sound of metal protesting as the lock pops off, the gates doing much the same as they open!
[09:15] <Darius> "'Ey! I'll be taking off arms and legs when I can, so someone needs to fire those I leave around."
[09:17] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Ahead you can begin to see the cemetary. There are a few scattered and tiny crypts about, but it's mostly tombs and markerstones. Rather refined in it's way, a sign of closeness to a center of civilisation. A few of the graves have broken earth, places where something was just buried...or removed.
[09:18] * Saul glances around the crypt, analyzing the way the graves have been broken open- was something pulled out, or did it climb out?
[09:18] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Mmm. Do you have a proficiecy that might help there, Saul?
[09:18] * SirGavin looks around, listening for any sounds of human life outside of them.
[09:19] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC roll a d20, Gavin.
[09:19] <Saul> OOC - Arguably religion, though nothing like mining or anything.
[09:19] <Saul> OOC - I'll concede to your judgement.
[09:19] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Mmm. It's sketchy. I'll give you a Int check +5, since you're really pushing at it at best.
[09:19] <Saul> OOC - Sure.
[09:19] <Saul> roll 1d20
[09:19] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Saul : [ 1d20=19 ]{19}
[09:19] <Saul> OOC: So I think I failed.
[09:20] <Saul> OOC: =p
[09:20] <Darius> "'Ey, Gavin.. Watch my back.. I think I'll check one of those graves for tracks.. Sound good?"
[09:20] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Proceed in a line," The seargant calls back carefully, as the group begins to head in!
[09:21] * SirGavin stays near the front.
[09:21] <SirGavin> "Nay, Darius, let's stick together."
[09:21] * Darius grunts, but follows Gavin's advice..
[09:22] <SirGavin> roll 1d20
[09:22] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 1d20=7 ]{7}
[09:23] * Saul ends up somewhere in the middle of the line, somewhere.
[09:24] <SuperSwordGirlAna> So the group heads in! It smells of the earth here, yet there is an undercurrent of pungent rot. Three steps in then four, heading into the graveyard proper. There is a strange feeling in the air - heavy and foreboding, the moon struggling with it's cloudly captor!
[09:24] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Gah.
[09:24] <SuperSwordGirlAna> So the group heads in! It smells of the earth here, yet there is an undercurrent of pungent rot. Three steps in then four, heading into the graveyard proper. There is a strange feeling in the air - heavy and foreboding, the moon struggling with it's cloudly captor! Yet no moonlight makes it past, only a bleak expanse of a great crypt ahead.
[09:25] <Elaine> roll d100
[09:25] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Elaine : [ 1d100=19 ]{19}
[09:25] * SirGavin snorts, clearing his nose a bit of the stench and trying to keep from getting jumpy.
[09:26] * Darius keeps his blades ready and continously scans the area for anything.
[09:26] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20
[09:26] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=15 ]{15}
[09:28] <Elaine> Elaine's ears twitch as they progress, as an assortment of unnerving sounds filter through, though somewhat muffled. "There's something moving under ground or something," Elaine mutters to Seryf.
[09:30] <SuperSwordGirlAna> The men proceed on, nervous but keeping a slow, steady line. It's pretty much a straight shot to the main crypt building, but it's a ways away.
[09:31] * Seryf frowns a little. It might set morale off, but... "Elaine's hearing movement underground," she informs the others, keeping a watchul eye out around them.
[09:31] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Yunnus...remove this blight," one of the soldiers prays to those words, heads turning around in quick succession to view about!
[09:33] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Hold yer line - your gonna show that some corpses aren't a candle on us!" Growling back to his men even as he carefully balances his sword, the seargant looks around. As this happens, a more audible sound, an earthy ripping! Not too far from the thre eon point, an earthen grave to the left bursts up! A skeletal body bursts out, strugging out from the grave!
[09:35] <SuperSwordGirlAna> AS this happens the moon at least is uncovered - a moonbeam lands righta t teh door of teh crypt! An image appears - a rotting body, a zombie's face! WEll made silk clothes are on it in tatters, maggots covering it's body with writhing joy. Empty eyesockets stare at you as it speaks, "Fooooood...."
[09:36] * Saul begins murmuring a prayer, one with perhaps more impetus than that which was echoed by the soldier.
[09:37] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Advance slowly and protect yer flanks," Yelling back to his men now, "Disable 'em and finish them off when you can! Go for that...God forsaken fucking thing!" Pointing his sword at it, "For the Crown and King Leo!:
[09:37] * Darius snaps his blades up, getting ready to fight with a grin and slight rumble in his throat.
[09:38] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Yeah, this is gonna turn into a fight. Roll initaitives, I'm going to use a group initiative for the pikemen and the seargant, since he's commanding them directly.
[09:38] <SirGavin> roll 1d10
[09:38] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 1d10=2 ]{2}
[09:38] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d10 military group

[09:38] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d10=8 ]{8}
[09:38] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d10 maggot zombie
[09:38] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d10=1 ]{1}
[09:38] <Darius> roll d10+3 for init
[09:38] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d10=4 ]{7}
[09:39] <Saul> OOC: Saul goes LAST.
[09:39] <Darius> OOC- 7 for intiatives
[09:39] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Modded initiative and actions, everyone.
[09:39] <Elaine> roll d10
[09:39] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Elaine : [ 1d10=8 ]{8}
[09:39] <Seryf> roll 1d10+4
[09:39] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Seryf : [ 1d10=4 ]{8}
[09:39] <SirGavin> OOC: 7, striking hard at across the torso of the skeleton to hopefully cut it in two with my broadsword.
[09:41] <Elaine> ooc: 11, weapon display to improve morale
[09:41] <Darius> OOC: 7, going after the Zombie.
[09:42] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Maggot Zombie (5) Darius(7, attacking zombie), Gavin(7, skeleton slash), Seryf(8, holding, watching) Military group (10, steady line advancing), Elaine(11, weapon display) Saul(N/A, end of round, spell.)=Skeleton(N/A, acts last every round)
[09:44] <SuperSwordGirlAna> So Darius begins to advance into the edge fo the light as the pikemen prepare! THe sound of earth moving around you is heard, but that's not all! The zombie staggers forward, a lurching walk! Maggots cover it head to toe, a disgusting display! It's mouth opens wide, skull seen and flesh splits aside! The exhale is a sickening sound, as a great spout of maggots burst from it's mouth, right at Darius and Serith! (OOC - Save vs Breath
[09:44] <SuperSwordGirlAna> (OOC - Save vs Breath weapon, Darius. +1 bonus since you're wearing armor of note. If you save I'll assume Serith does automatically.)
[09:44] <Darius> roll d20 (Darius)
[09:44] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=3 ]{3}
[09:44] <Darius> roll d20 (Serith)
[09:44] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=10 ]{10}
[09:45] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 4d4+4
[09:45] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 4d4=12 ]{16}
[09:46] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Both of you need to make a save vs poison at -4 now.
[09:46] <Darius> roll d20-4
[09:46] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=9 ]{5}
[09:46] <Darius> roll d20-4
[09:46] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=18 ]{14}
[09:48] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Your flesh is bit into and sickening muched by this swarm of maggots, white agony as your body is consumed! Pain flares up in the most disgusting way possible, mouth and eyes half clouded by this stream of maggots that have surrounded you! They remain on your body, a sprinking of the most vile!
[09:48] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Both of you take 16 damage and I make a note about Darius failing that save.
[09:49] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Go Gavin and Darius.
[09:49] * SirGavin moves to the Skeleton, bringing his broadsword down in a diagonal slash across from the arm through the chest to the other side hopefully.
[09:49] * Darius roars in rage as he spurs Serith forward, keeping her momentum going for a pounce attack!
[09:49] <SirGavin> roll 1d20 for slashing action.
[09:49] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 1d20=9 ]{9}
[09:50] <Darius> roll 1d20+1 for pounce
[09:50] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=20 ]{21}
[09:50] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Critted.
[09:51] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Roll your pounce damage, Darius. Remember the shiny x2.
[09:52] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Gavin's blow just misses, hitting wrong and recoiling off the solid bone!
[09:52] <Darius> roll 1d8+2
[09:52] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d8=4 ]{6}
[09:53] <Darius> OOC-12 damage total.
[09:53] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Despite the agony in your flesh, Serith expertly pounces onto the zombie! It's body puffs down, maggots breaking out of it's flesh by force as it's taken down hard, leaving the tiger and it's rider atop it!
[09:53] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Gah.
[09:54] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Despite the agony in your flesh, Serith expertly pounces onto the zombie! It's body puffs down, maggots breaking out of it's flesh by force as it's taken down hard, leaving the tiger and it's rider atop it! A cry of distorted pain comes from it's mouth, maggots crawling out as, "Fooood...."
[09:54] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Going to do anything right now, Seryf?
[09:54] <Seryf> OOC - Not so long as the front line seems to be handling it.
[09:55] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As this happens there are more cries, rustlings! More graves burst open, a freshlet of the undying coming out! 3 skeletons and 2 maggotless zombies, struggling to rise!
[09:55] * Darius swings his blades down at the trapped Zombie, intent on returning the pain back!
[09:55] <Darius> roll 1d20+2
[09:55] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=10 ]{12}
[09:55] <Darius> roll 1d20+2

[09:57] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d8=2 ]{5}
[09:57] <Darius> roll 1d8+3
[09:57] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - If you want to act this round, Seryf, tell me in PM or in #mk and we'll have you go then.
[09:57] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d8=6 ]{9}
[09:57] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As the guards advance, "Damn it," the seargant swears darkly, seeing undead pop up on both sides of your line!
[09:58] <SuperSwordGirlAna> A pair of stabs - one into it's torso and another wrenching off much of it's left arm! It's moan increases as maggots warm out of it's body, but it's still struggling under Serith!
[09:58] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Do your display, Elaine.
[10:00] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Fire out and spears ready," So commanding and falling back slightly to his men, "Sir, can you advance while we clean up and protect the flanks," he asks.
[10:00] <SuperSwordGirlAna> So it is shouted in the din of combat, to Gavin as his blade has missed.
[10:01] * Darius roars in triumph as his attacks slam home.
[10:01] <SirGavin> "Be careful." Gavin called back.
[10:02] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As this happens, the skeletal creature reaches out, bony fingers going for what scant portions of Gavin are vulnerable!
[10:02] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20
[10:02] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=20 ]{20}
[10:02] <Saul> A bright light flashes briefly around Saul, illuminating the soldiers and his allies with golden grace for a split-second.
[10:03] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d3
[10:03] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d3=1 ]{1}
[10:03] <SuperSwordGirlAna> It is a glancing blow, a claw that digs deep enough into Gavin's metal to leave a light bruise on his side! (1 damage.)
[10:07] * Elaine looks on as the undead begin to rise from their graves, a mix of excitement and fear bubbling up in her at the creepy sight. Shaking off the fear as best she can, she paints on a confident grin as she begins to twirl Silmara and the torch, working with what room she has, creating a mesmerizing effect as the light of the torch glints against the blade's edge whenever they pass near each other.
[10:07] <Elaine> "Let's show these zombies what we've got!" she exclaims loudly as she tries to garner attention to herself, and bolster the morale of everyone against this menace from the grave with her display.
[10:11] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Right," one fo the men calls to his seargant and to Elaine, two small lines forming to protect teh flanks as they advance, the torch bearers in the middle!
[10:11] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Initiative. The non maggot enemies are going to use a group initaitive, and most of them go last anyway.

[10:16] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=2 ]{7}
[10:16] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As this happens, the fresh wounds of Serith and Darius itch! Pain fills them as maggot crawl around and out, causing more damage to both!
[10:16] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d4
[10:16] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d4=1 ]{1}

[10:19] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=7 ]{10}
[10:19] <SuperSwordGirlAna> With a final claw the neck of the zombie is sliced open! It's body stops it's movement, maggots crawling out and away from it! Is it dead? It's not moving, at least!
[10:19] <Darius> OOC- Er.. Ignore those rolls, then.
[10:20] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Make a save vs spell, Darius.
[10:21] <Darius> roll d20+1
[10:21] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Darius : [ 1d20=19 ]{20}
[10:23] * Darius bellows and points at the slowly moving door of a crypt.
[10:23] <Darius> "Something's comming!"
[10:24] * Darius lets out a bellow of rage, caught up in the heat and emotion of the fight and spurs Serith towards the crypt.
[10:25] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As the battle rages on, Darius bursts into the dark crypt! OOC - Darius, join a channel I'll PM you for something private for now. Good luck!
[10:25] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Go, Seryf.
[10:27] <SirGavin> "Darius, don't get too far ahead by yourself!" Gavin called out.
[10:28] <Seryf> Quickly singling out a close opponent on the mass' flank, Seryf moves swiftly to engage it, leading with Sun's flashing blade, followed by a second slash from Moon...
[10:28] <Seryf> roll 1d20+1
[10:28] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Seryf : [ 1d20=2 ]{3}

[10:29] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Seryf : [ 1d6=1 ]{2}
[10:29] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Moon tears into the zombie's grey, rotted body, a chunk of arm muscle removed!
[10:30] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Now...for the King!" The seargant shouts, as the men go to engage the nearest undead! Two pike men find a skeleton and a zombie, respecitvely, to slice up or impale!
[10:30] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20 skele
[10:30] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=1 ]{1}
[10:30] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20 zombie
[10:30] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=17 ]{17}
[10:31] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Yet the first is woefull inept! His long spere gets caught in the skeleton's ribcage, the wooden haft snapping uselessly! But the secnod is better off, running the zombie through!
[10:31] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d8
[10:31] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d8=4 ]{4}
[10:31] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Yet even skewered, the zombie is still struggling despite a shalf fo spear in it's stomach1
[10:31] <SuperSwordGirlAna> "Aaaah!" The failed attack screams, stumbling back with entirely too wide eyes as his weapon fails him1
[10:32] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Go, Elaine.
[10:32] <SuperSwordGirlAna> AS this happens, there is a stony clap! The doors of the crypt move, slamming shut behind Darius!
[10:33] * Elaine ends her amazing display of sword handling as she tightens her grip on her sword and moves to join everyone else against the undead menace. Moving towards one of the nearby skeletons, she raises Silmara upwards before swinging it down diagonally hard, hoping to part the skeleton in two.
[10:35] <Elaine> roll d20+3
[10:35] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Elaine : [ 1d20=4 ]{7}
[10:35] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Silmara flashes in the gloomy night, but it only rends the cool night air!
[10:35] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Saul?
[10:36] <Saul> "In undeath, borrowed time is all one has," murmurs Saul. "And now, now I come, to collect!" He flings a coin into the sky, a coin that shines with golden radiance!
[10:36] <Saul> roll 1d20
[10:36] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Saul : [ 1d20=3 ]{3}
[10:36] <SuperSwordGirlAna> ...yet nothing at all happens. If Waukeen finds these zombies offensive, she's not kickin' them out of this graveyard.
[10:38] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Go, Gavin.
[10:38] * SirGavin gavin spins, striking to knock the skeleton away with fierce blows and then rushing off after Darius.
[10:38] <SirGavin> roll 1d20+2
[10:38] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 1d20=12 ]{14}
[10:38] <SirGavin> roll 1d20+2
[10:38] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 1d20=7 ]{9}
[10:39] <SirGavin> OOC; I take from past experience  that's a hit and a miss.
[10:40] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Yes. I believe so, go for damage.
[10:41] <SirGavin> roll 2d4+3
[10:41] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 2d4=3 ]{6}
[10:41] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Your blade has difficulty with the hard bones, but you cut clearly  through the shoulder! It's right arm falls away and is useless before Gavin breaks and runs, trying to catch up!
[10:42] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Now the normal undead!
[10:43] <SuperSwordGirlAna> The zombie attacked by Seryf returns the favor, clawing at her with hungry hands!
[10:43] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20
[10:43] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=1 ]{1}
[10:43] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Yet it misses utterly, stumbling andf alling down face first with a groan!
[10:44] <SuperSwordGirlAna> The one attacked by Gavin stumbles about, ending up swiping at teh seargant, who returns the favor!
[10:44] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20 skele
[10:44] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=15 ]{15}

[10:45] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d6
[10:45] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d6=5 ]{5}
[10:46] <SuperSwordGirlAna> While a light wound is suffered to the seargant's side, his sword slips from his hands! It spins over and over in the moon light, coming down on it's side...right at Gavin!
[10:46] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20 (THACO 19 assigned)
[10:46] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=2 ]{2}
[10:46] <SuperSwordGirlAna> But it clatters at his feet, a two handed sword missing him!
[10:47] <SuperSwordGirlAna> The rest of the undead engage the soldiers, minor wounds exchanged - but one does go towards Saul, a zombie eyeing that coin with a strange mix of pain and hope as he grabs!
[10:47] <SuperSwordGirlAna> *at Saul's flesh
[10:47] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d20
[10:47] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d20=13 ]{13}
[10:47] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - AC?
[10:48] <Saul> OOC - 6 or 4.
[10:48] <Saul> OOC - Is he coming from the front? o-o
[10:49] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Yes.
[10:49] <Saul> OOC: 4.
[10:49] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - A miss either way, I think.
[10:49] <Saul> OOC: Excellent.
[10:49] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOC - Initiaize. Going for the doors, Gavin? Just roll a d10.
[10:49] <SirGavin> roll 1d10
[10:49] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SirGavin : [ 1d10=2 ]{2}
[10:49] <Seryf> roll 1d10+4
[10:49] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Seryf : [ 1d10=7 ]{11}
[10:50] <SirGavin> OOC: I be pausing a half step to kick the two-handed sword back towards its owner and then going for the doors.  If I reach them this turn, I try and open them.
[10:50] <Elaine> roll d10+3 to attack again!
[10:50] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Elaine : [ 1d10=6 ]{9}
[10:50] <SirGavin> OOC: according to GM-san, add 2 for the sword kick, for a move on 4.
[10:50] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As this happens, more cries! The earth is rent again as 2 more zombies and another skeleton rise, a little away and closer to the crypt!
[10:51] <Saul> roll 1d10+4 on hit and run!
[10:51] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Saul : [ 1d10=8 ]{12}
[10:51] <Elaine> ooc: 9 to attack skeleton once again.
[10:51] <SuperSwordGirlAna> roll 1d10 soldiers
[10:51] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for SuperSwordGirlAna : [ 1d10=8 ]{8}
[10:53] <SuperSwordGirlAna> Gavin(4, Kick'n'run), Elaine(9, slashing!), Seryf(11, slashing!) Saul(12, smiting!), soldiers(12)
[10:58] * SirGavin pauses noticing the sword, his foot lashing out, twisting and kicking it back towards the saergant, then he charged to the door. Trying to push it in first, he then slammed against it if it didn't open.
[10:59] <SuperSwordGirlAna> As the seargant gets his sword slid back to him, Gavin reaches the tomb doors...and they open easily, into utter pitch black! But you can hear noises distantly, Serith's roar of combat from somewhere in these Gods forsaken depths!
[11:00] * SirGavin grunts and moves into the darkness, following towards the sound.
[11:00] * Saul (~Crish@203.214.0.5) Quit
[11:00] <SuperSwordGirlAna> OOc - Gavin out of here and into a room I'll PM him. He can stay in #dunes to watch, of course.
[11:03] <Elaine> Not disheartened by her resulting first swing of Silmara, Elaine spins with it, using the motion to take another swing at the skeleton she had challenged, one of the techniques she'd practiced earlier with Gavin while sparring.
[11:03] <Elaine> roll d20+3
[11:03] * Serith bats the dice around, getting a roll for Elaine : [ 1d20=1 ]{4}

[11:05] <Anastasia> But it is to utter naught! Silmara flies up over it's head and too far, causing Elaine's body to move with it! HEr balance is ruined, causing her to fall on her side and helpless, disoriented!
[11:06] <Seryf> Seryf whips around with the movement of her blades, her opponent on the ground but likely to get up, magic swords aimed to rend the mostrous creation to pieces!
[11:06] <Seryf> roll 1d20+2
[11:06] <Misukibot> Seryf rolled 1d20+2 --> [ 1d20=10 ]{12}

[11:07] <Misukibot> Seryf rolled 1d8+3 --> [ 1d8=3 ]{6}
[11:08] <Anastasia> Hah! It's torn asunder, blades cutting it into three pieces that fall to the ground, nothign but rotten meat!
[11:09] <Anastasia> OOC - Saul's up. I'll attack with him and see if he's ballpark.
[11:09] <Anastasia> roll 1d20
[11:09] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=20 ]{20}

[11:09] <Anastasia> roll 1d6
[11:09] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d6 --> [ 1d6=1 ]{1}
[11:09] <Anastasia> Saul cries forth, his quarterstaff slamming into the head of the beast approaching! Yet it's undead form is soundly clubbed, a crack of bone as it's knocked back!
[11:10] <Anastasia> MEanwhile the soldiers and zombies keep at it! One zombie falls, and another soldier stumbles back, side bleeding massively!
[11:10] <Anastasia> "M...mot...brother..." he groans, spear clattering to the ground as he falls!

[11:23] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d100 --> [ 1d100=15 ]{15}
[11:23] <Anastasia> OOC - Darius is one lucky motherfucker.
[11:25] <Saul> "Use your torches! Undead flesh burns hot!" shouts Saul, frustrated, running towards the crypt door.
[11:27] <Anastasia> As Elaine falls tot he ground, the foe she was duelling with takes advantage, making a strike!
[11:27] <Anastasia> roll 1d20+4
[11:27] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d20+4 --> [ 1d20=14 ]{18}
[11:27] <Anastasia> roll 1d3
[11:27] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d3 --> [ 1d3=2 ]{2}
[11:28] <Anastasia> A small, long drag of a dirty, jagged finger rips into Elaine's side, just by her bosom! It's not much, but it sure stings, nearly molested or disfigured by the undead!
[11:31] <Anastasia> Sot he battle rages on now, as...OOC - Initiatives.
[11:31] <Anastasia> OOC - I'm not going to roll for the soldiers this round, since they're tying up most of the undead.
[11:32] <Seryf> roll 1d10+4
[11:32] <Misukibot> Seryf rolled 1d10+4 --> [ 1d10=4 ]{8}
[11:32] <Saul> roll 1d10+4 casting flame blade

[11:33] <Misukibot> Elaine rolled 1d10+3 to torch with one hand and slice with other --> [ 1d10=7 ]{10}
[11:33] <Anastasia> Seryf(8, swording),  Elaine(10, burn and stab!) Saul (11, Flame Blade-o!)
[11:35] <Anastasia> OOC - Go, Seryf.
[11:36] <Seryf> Snarling almost, Sery rushes across the path, blades slashing again over Elain'e's prone form with savage intent for her assaulter!

[11:37] <Seryf> roll 1d6+1
[11:37] <Misukibot> Seryf rolled 1d6+1 --> [ 1d6=1 ]{2}
[11:38] <Anastasia> The skeleton is torn apart by blades, bone splintered and turned into rubbled heaps on the ground!
[11:41] <Elaine> "Thanks," Elaine says softly as she flips herself upright. Wincing a bit at the small bit of pain in her side, though thankfully not enough to get a scream out of her. Looking for the closest undead, Elaine readies to move towards it.
[11:42] <Anastasia> A zombie is going back and forth with a guardsman, the man falling as his face is ripped, torn apart as it goes in for the bloody kill!
[11:43] <Anastasia> As this happens, to the side...stumbling out from behind the crypt, slowly advancing into the range of ilght - a maggot covered zombie, stumbling on forward!
[11:46] * Saul is now known as Carthrat-Sleep
[11:50] * Elaine spots the guardsman falling and moves to his defense as Seryf did for hers, throwing the torch in her right hand towards the zombie to get it's attention (as well as cause it pain with the fire) even as she rushes towards it, her blade trailing behind her, aiming to take a vicious horizontal swing through its side once she reaches it.
[11:50] <Elaine> roll d20+2
[11:50] <Misukibot> Elaine rolled d20+2 --> [ 1d20=2 ]{4}

[11:51] <Elaine> roll 2d4+2
[11:52] <Misukibot> Elaine rolled 2d4+2 --> [ 2d4=7 ]{9}
[11:53] <Anastasia> The zombie is cut in half, sliced cleanly by Silmara! The blade softly glows blue as it does so, Elaine succesffully returning this body to the EArth!
[11:55] <Elaine> 'About time!' Elaine thinks as the zombie is destroyed, confidence bubbling within her again.
[11:59] <Anastasia> Saul finishes chanting! A ray of red springs to life in her hand, a scmitar of fire burning as he advances towards the crypt, but the maggot zombie moves to intercept!
[12:01] <Anastasia> Meanwhile the soldiers and the undead fight no! It'sa bout even, but three soldiers are down as well as a few undead - just two lefto ut here! "Rally," the seargant cries out, even as his side bleeds!
[12:02] <Anastasia> OOC - Initiative, I think.
[12:02] <Seryf> roll 1d10+4

[12:04] <Anastasia> OOC - Seryf>Elaine>Saul. go.
[12:06] <Seryf> Seeing the soldiers outnumbering the zombies and slowly managing to whittle them away faster than their own are, comparatively, Seryf rushes towards the new maggot zombie, trying hard to not think about whit it might do, and attacking in full force!
[12:06] <Seryf> roll 1d20+2
[12:06] <Seryf> roll 1d20+2
[12:06] <Misukibot> Seryf rolled 1d20+2 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{15}

[12:07] <Misukibot> Seryf rolled 1d6+1 --> [ 1d6=3 ]{4}
[12:08] <Anastasia> The zombie is slashed horribly! Maggots escape it's body as it's guts are ripped open, an arm lopped off! As it does it's groan increase, "Fooood..." it cries, as it leans forward at Seryf! It's mouth begins to split apart, a surge and stream of writhing maggots right at Seryf! OOC - What armor are you wearing, Seryf?
[12:08] <Seryf> OOC - Studded leather.
[12:08] <Anastasia> OOC - Normal save vs breath.
[12:10] <Seryf> roll 1d20

[12:12] <Anastasia> Maggots swarm over the fair Seryf, tearing, biting and infesting her skin! Th epain is like a creeping surge, going all over her elven body!
[12:19] * Elaine rushes towards the zombie that Seryf has started fighting, hoping to continue aiding her allies and repay an earlier favor! Upon reaching it, two quick swings that will hopefully destroy the menace are taken!
[12:19] <Elaine> roll d20+3
[12:19] <Misukibot> Elaine rolled d20+3 --> [ 1d20=20 ]{23}
[12:19] <Elaine> roll d20+3
[12:19] <Misukibot> Elaine rolled d20+3 --> [ 1d20=3 ]{6}
[12:20] <Elaine> roll 2d4+2
[12:20] <Misukibot> Elaine rolled 2d4+2 --> [ 2d4=7 ]{9}
[12:20] <Anastasia> The maggot zombie's head is neatly cut away through it's cranium, it's brains falling out as it drops! As this happens the clouds above vanish, pure moonlight shining down! The last skeleton simply falls apart at this, as a soft, welcome and familiar radiance cloaks the graveyard.
[12:21] * Seryf whimpers and hisses with pain as everything disappears, quickly trying to remove all teh maggots biting into her.
[12:22] <Anastasia> This is a grisly task but one that is needed, the maggots removed quickly.
[12:22] <Elaine> "Victory!" Elaine cheers as she raises her sword up high, noticing the destruction of all present undead, before noticing Seryf's outburst of pain. "Seryf!" she mutters as she drops her sword and moves to help her.
[12:23] * Seryf takes a deep breath, pale and trembling slightly. "Just...gross, painful," she murmurs, jaw tight. "The others though..." she murmurs, glancing towards the crypt, and picking up Sun.
[12:24] <Anastasia> The soldiers sigh in relief, "Is it over," one asks aloud, dazedly.
[12:25] <Elaine> "No, Seryf has a point. Gavin and Darius went after something, so the fight's not over," Elaine says to the soldiers after nodding to Seryf.
[12:25] * SirGavin (WinNT@metapod-77.dynamic.rpi.edu) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
[12:27] * Elaine looks around to see how many of their side went down and how many are still in fighting shape.
[12:27] <Seryf> "For the large number of you, sure," standing up, looking to Saul. "If you might, please, oh cleric of coins?" she asks, tensely teasing. "I'd like to stay standing when we get inside. "We can't fit many people in there."
[12:27] <Anastasia> But slowly, as this happens, as Saul smirks but his face is ashen - the crypt doors open! Out comes Gavin riding Serith, a man in his arms!
[12:28] <Anastasia> One eye is blackened and swollen shut, blood leaking out of it, the other rolled back into his head, gouges and swaths of flesh eaten away and turning ugly greenish and purple colors, blood dripping across his face everywhere, large gashes across the right side of his face, almost going through his entire flesh! So that is the state Darius is in, Gavin not much better! His armor is charred and clung to by stray bits of ashy white, but he's
[12:28] * SirGavin (WinNT@metapod-77.dynamic.rpi.edu) has joined #dunes
[12:28] <Anastasia> ashy white, but he's alive.
[12:28] <Anastasia> Moonlight shines down for Gavin's site, the graveyard now empty.
[12:28] <Elaine> "Gavin! What happened?" Elaine asks as she rushes to his side, horrified at their state. What could have done this to the two of them?
[12:29] <Seryf> "...Nevermind, I don't need it that much," Seryf answers, paling considerably from her already whitened stat.
[12:29] <Seryf> *state
[12:29] <Anastasia> Saul does the same, his fiery blade blinking out of existance. "By Waukeen.." he turns his gaze to Darius. "You damn fool...do you keep wanting to die this badly," he mutters darkly, hands already moving over him!
[12:29] <Anastasia> roll 1d8
[12:29] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d8 --> [ 1d8=4 ]{4}
[12:30] <Anastasia> OOC - 4 HP back to Darius.
[12:30] * Darius 's lolls around, limply as his open eye rolls forward, dialated as he drunkenly looks around and spots approaching Elaine.
[12:30] * Darius raises a hand weakly and points at her as he mumbles deliriously.
[12:30] * ChanServ sets mode: +o SirGavin
[12:30] <SirGavin> Gavin grunted. "Mage...  we found some jewels on him, saul should appraise them...  And... ow...Are they all done?"
[12:30] <Darius> "'prety..ang'l...me t'a li'ht?"
[12:31] <Anastasia> Saul only shakes his head, doing the same again for Darius.
[12:31] <Anastasia> roll 1d8
[12:31] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d8 --> [ 1d8=3 ]{3}
[12:31] <Anastasia> OOC - Darius gets 3 HP back.
[12:31] * SirGavin glances around, seeing how many survived.
[12:31] <Seryf> "All finished," Seryf coughs, wincing a little as she moves.
[12:31] <Anastasia> 3 soldiers are down and others are wounded - but the majority are alive. Torchlight aids as the seargant lips along, his side crimson. "Aye...thank you, sir... are you..."
[12:34] <SirGavin> "Think nothing of it...I'm glad to see that most of you survived and that the evil is gone... " Gavin grunted and offer the seargant support. "Let's get back to town...we're in no shape if any more appear and as it stands, I think we've got them."
[12:34] * Usagi (eb@user-3480.l6.c1.dsl.pol.co.uk) has joined #dunes
[12:34] * ChanServ sets mode: +ao Usagi Usagi
[12:34] <Anastasia> A third spell, one more for Darius!
[12:34] <Anastasia> roll 1d8
[12:34] <Misukibot> Anastasia rolled 1d8 --> [ 1d8=1 ]{1}
[12:34] <Anastasia> OOC - 1 HP for Darius. FEAR.
[12:34] * Darius drunkenly looks around again, grinning sloppily, a bit of old blood running out of his mouth before he passes out again.
[12:35] <Anastasia> "We need to return and leave this place behind," Saul breaths after this, "As soon as possible."
[12:36] <SirGavin> "We'll see in the morning, Saul." Gavin agreed, helping the men out.
