Myron's increasing might & magic

[Skrye [AC3; 48/48HP]]

- Looking at Quila, Skrye smiles and, taking advantage of the situation, she concentrates to reduce her size and modify her shape to that of a small brown rat, aiming to move sneaky later on to the nearby wall, looking for the rock imbued with silence (if it was different to any others around, if not no).

[OOC: ROUND 2 >> Initiative 9 (No Dex modified, not sure if it applies in this situation as shapechange kit ability).

Songs of the bard, to provide a +1 sav. throw bonus to everyone [7 rnds].

Silence at the stone [15 rnds].

AC 0 [9rnds], 48/48HP; SPELLS 1stLvl(5/5), 2ndLvl(3/5), 3rdLvl(3/4), 4thLvl(3/3)]

[DM Bob]

Niachi succeeds on casting Greater Malison. Rolled initiative 6 without bonuses. +4 for casting time.

Round 3:

With the inability to protect himself psionically due to 'Muiko's dread curse and having no where to flee the undead ex-Champion looks back and forth for a way out of this situation as Quila's invincible foes works it's mental magic.

Soon after Coden feels for weaknesses to exploit upon the gold mask. It doesn't appear to to have any... until he regards the linen tie holding the face plate upon the undead foe's face. It soon falls to the ground revealing a taut, leathery grey face with glowing greenish eyes. Gum-less teeth sneer in a portrayal of utter hatred and confusion.

Skyre maneuvers beneath Myron's legs and is able to deal act on the next round.

Umbris is able to switch weapons and is being ignored as of the present.

Attilius expects an attack that does not manifest. Instead, the dread brother of Aman leaps upward and grasps the plug above his head. Wrenches it open...

...causing a flood of dirty tomb water to drop from the ceiling in a silent, yet stanky "woosh".

[Umbris (AC 2 | HP 37/37)]

Umbris hears a bunch of screeching, sees a flash of gold fall, hears the plug uncork... snarls. He needs to move, NOW, because he refuses to drown behind a half giants ass.
So he darts out of his corner, scrambling up, over, and off the coffin to grab the golden mask before darting away, heading for the bottom left corner of the last map posted

(Init of 1 with bonuses, 9" of movement.)

[AthasianLaborer]

Round 3 Initiative: 8 (10 on the die, -1 Combat Mind, -1 Dex)
Round 3 Intention: Continue the psionic cockblock.

[Coden Rokos (Jesse H.)]

Coden maintains his existing combat mind but is unable to bring concentration on his next trick to bear.

(Maintain combat mind; attempted to manifest another power, rolled 16 vs. a power score of 14, fail.)

[Quila Oris (John M.)]

Round 3
Initiative: 1 (rolled 5, -3 dex, -1 combat mind)

Quila steps forward as she sees the half-giant struggle and grasping for straws instead of his own weapons he just threw aside. She comes up to his side, and sees Niachi hand his great club to the murmillo, so instead of handing over her weapon she tries to smack Myron but misses. Shen then takes a step back from where she came.

Quila will also maintain the previously manifested Safe Path (-4 psp/round) and Invincible Foes (-5).

AC 1, 62/62 HP, saves get a +4 bonus. Spells 1st (3/5), 2nd (4/5), 3rd (3/3), 4th (1/2). PSPs: 65/146.

[Niachi]

Round 3
Initiative rolled 1, -1 Dex, -1 Combat Mind.

As Ubmris snatches the mask and darts away, Atillius yells with outstreched hand towards Q, and Myron starts flooding the chamber:
Niachi sees the goliath empty handed. With inhuman reflexes, He reverses grip on his bone club to present the handle to the gladiator. +4 greatclub vs. undead.
He extends his leg towards Skrye in rat form so she can scamper up his 7' 3" height and avoid the foul waters.

initiative: 3
AC: -7 (-9 range)
Prot. From Evil: 13 rounds
Haste: unknown (2-18 rounds)


The Murmillo silently grabs the club from Niachi and goes to work

initiative: 7
Attack 1: hit AC -14; Damage: 22 magical blug.
Attack 2: hit AC -8; Damage: 21 magical blug.

With his shield arm, Attilius slices through the downpouring deluge and pushes upward, doing his best to seal the plug with his tower shield and strength.

[DM Bob]

The soiled water falls foully in an epic splash as the tari turned rat grabs the coin in her mouth. Seeing an opportunity, she scampers up the undead foe's robe and slips the coin into his now wet pocket. Skrye then falls onto Niachi's grasp as Myron tries to make an upward escape.

It is quite amazing the supernatural strength and agility that the dead/not-dead man contains. I daresay spry for his age. Attilius hits him twice - to no apparent effect.

While Attilius is able to stem some of the foul liquid from his own body, he has no real success blocking the exit as Myron is moving far faster than he expected, and since he needed to grasp the club, has direct issue with using his shield and also attacking this moment.

The once Champion starts pulling himself upward.

You may take an additional physical attack this next round as he's presenting his back and trying to escape. Note that he is likely still immune to technical backstabs (here's looking at you, Umbris).

[Umbris (AC 2 | HP 37/37)]

Sees his opportunity, shoving the gold mask at whoever is closest before rushing over to shank the undead man in the taint, trying to chop off any twig and cherries if they've been left on

Round 4:
Init 3 (Rolled 6, +1 speed, -4 dex)

Hit AC of 2
Damage of 6

Second Attack:
Hit AC of 0 with Back AC bonus

Attilius tosses the club and his shield into the open sarcophagus and attempts to grapple the escaping grey skull...

initiative: 3
AC: -4
Prot. From Evil: 12 rounds
Haste: unknown (1-17 rounds)


Rolled a 18 to hit, with str mod., hit an AC of well beyond -10
Rolled a 1 on the wresting move chart. (gladiators get a +/-4 up or down on the chart due to their expertise)
Will choose a REAR NAKED CHOKE HOLD (Headlock*)
*Hold can be maintained from round to round, until broken.

Damage: 1+str = 13 non magical

[Quila Oris (John M.)]

Round 4

Initiative: 3 (rolled 4, -3 dex, -1 combat mind, weapon speed 3)

Quila tries to hit Myron with the rusted magical quarterstaff and even though the weapon raises the hairs in her neck, a quarterstaff is a quarterstaff, and she is an expert in them.

She hits AC 6, AC 0 and AC -2 for 4, 4 and 3 damage respectively.

Quila will also maintain the previously manifested Safe Path (-4 psp/round) and Invincible Foes (-5 psp/round).

AC 1, 62/62 HP, saves get a +4 bonus. Spells 1st (3/5), 2nd (4/5), 3rd (3/3), 4th (1/2). PSPs: 54/146.

[DM Bob]

Round 4:

Myron is held down by the goliath, yet does not seem to be damaged by *any* of the multiple attacks upon his undying body.

Two blows from Quila's staff land ineffectually.

Most of the halfling's attacks have connected with his body.

The falling water has dissipated the flying swarm of bloodflies (that didn't seem to bother him much to begin with - not like he was able to cast or psionically attack though).

The dead/not-dead brother from another mother then jabs twice, incredibly hard into Attilius' bulky frame. If it weren't for the breastplate, the gladiator is certain he'd be spitting blood. 20 damage, and I need a save vs paralysis please.
