Dark Rumblings

[Anastasia]

You see them ahead. Rats, large as horses, filling the way. Dozens of them, chittering and scurrying before you.  Behind them, 30ft back into the room, a decorated place showing a warrior bloodily overcome by beasts in wall frescoes, it stands. A twisted, gargoyle like creature of green - a nycaloth. In whispers strange and otherworldly it speaks, "Strike, eat, devour," it insists, the rats surging.

Your vision is not so weak as to miss what looms directly above. Straight up on the wall above the door is a white sac, 20ft up. From it all manner of loathesome things leak out - vermin of all kinds.

Suffice to say, init.

[Ebiris]

Alicia has supreme initiative.

"I have this," Alicia says softly before she morphs into a crackling blur of lightning that blitzes deeper into the room!

DC 28 ref half electrical damage to the vermin directly ahead of Alicia for 15 feet.

As she manifests again with a crackle of ozone she isn't just a mere human sized Alicia either, now an enormous figure dominating the hallway she lashes out with her blade, seeking out every foe within reach and rending them apart!

Swift to make self huge and then whirlwind attack.
Space 15 and reach 15 should hit everything so far described.

<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+21 nycaloth --> [ 1d20=6 ]{27}

Not bothering with the rats since whirlwind moots it.

Alicia's blade is more than sufficient. A single swing and dozens fall, blood gushing from bodies torn asunder. A single swipe clears the room save for the nycaloth, who you cut deeply into. His chest is torn open and green blood gushes out, leaving him reeling back as meanwhile, the sac is torn wide open, vermin exploding in the aftermath of Bond's sweep.

Init is Alicia (Rei-B-Gone) > Ebony (24) > Marie = Nycaloth (23)

That it for you this round, Alicia?

[Ebiris]

All done!

[Anastasia]

Ebony shakes her head, "Lament in Gehenna," she declares, as an unseen, invisible needle of force flies for the daemon's head.

Consecrated unseen needle.

A hole appears right between the eyes of the daemon, causing it to slump and fall, slain in a neat, single strike. It crumbles apart into a mist that fades away, slain. You are triumphant!

Free act.

"Superbly done, Ebony," Alicia praises, reverting to normal size and looking around the room to see what paths are open.

"Thank you," Ebony declares as you look around.

Give me a quick Perception check.

[Anastasia]

There is a door to the east, a door to the west and double doors north.

The door to the east shows the armored warrior torn asunder, flesh blood trickling down the door.

The door to the west shows the soul of the armored warrior tormented and consumed by wild animals, a soft murmuring of regrets and agony coming from it.

The double doors to the north merely shows the armored warrior, yet his face is gouged out, leaving behind only bloodied claw marks where it was supposed to be.

[Ebiris]

I have scent. From which door is the stench of vermin strongest?

[Anastasia]

West.

[Ebiris]

"This way," Alicia leads her two proxies to the West and opens that door.

[Anastasia]

Opening the door, you find that past about 5ft in, this narrow hall is filled with white sacs. Vermin slip out of them, a tidal wave of crawling, squirming things best not thought of. Through it all you can see the hall continues a good way down, a door north about halfway, and a door west at the far end.

When the door opens, they all begin to skitter - generally away from all of you.

I'm getting in the habit of using these sort of things for dungeons, and while it's not universal, I'm using it for this one.
