Truenamer Playtest: Eyes of the Lich Queen [IC]

[Master_Rahl22]

Jorryn looks at the others and says, "Well, let's head west." With that, he starts off in that direction.

"Well, I supose that is as good as any other, in this situation."

*Falling into step, he reloads his crossbow, and continues to maintain his concentration.*

Thanks Rahl

The western hallway leads about fifty feet straight ahead, where you can see it opens up into a larger room. Along the right wall of the hall, a doorway leads to a different room. An intermittant low growl and scuffling can be heard from the chamber directly ahead, but you can't see the source from the hall.

[Master_Rahl22]

Jorryn motions for the others to go back a ways down the hall and says, "I don't know what was growling down there, but we should be prepared for the worst. I am out of useful spells for summing a creature to soak up damage. Are we ready for another fight or should we explore the other parts of this temple for a bit and then rest?"

[DueceEsMachine]

Lorenax

"I think we can handle whatever is in there with a little bit of preperation. It can't be any worse than the dragon guarding the front door could it? Give me a moment, and I'll see what I can do, then we give it our best, eh?"

*Taking a deep breath, he begins chanting, urging the universe to obey his will, telling it to guide their hands, that their enemies will fall swiftly. After a few seconds of this, he opens his eyes and heads towards the growling.*

"It wont last very long - maybe half a minute if we're lucky - make your first swing count!"

OOC: Alright, I'm going to use strike of might on anyone who wants it, probably Jorryn first then Dicare, it lasts 5 rounds or until dispersed, and will add 10 points of damage to your next melee strike.
Truespeak DC: 21 for Jorryn, 23 for Dicare, I think I used it on him once before.
Jorryn
(1d20+17)[25]
Dicare
(1d20+17)[36]
Edit: So, good on both of you.

[Tavar]

Dicare

Dicare gives a short nod as he feels the magic take effect, and seeing nothing else to do, steps through the doorway.

Light streams in from the high windows of this vaulted chamber, illuminating a circular well bordered by a low bloodstained wall. Rusty iron cages are into the far wall, while the others bear bas-relief sculptures that illustrate the macabre rites that must have once taken place here. If the images on the walls are to be believed, creatures were held within these cages and dropped into the central well. Below, a great skeletal dragon would feast on them.

A snarling grunt issues from the dark corner of the room to the right of the entrance. A low mass of shaggy fur and sharp claws eyes you warily. You hear the sound of metal on stone as the oversized wolverine shifts in the shadows.

Nearby, two more blackscales face you, keeping the well between you and them. Unlike the more-primitive looking lizardfolk outside, these wear ornate breastplates engraved with draconic imagery. They heft spiked greatclubs and glare angrily at you.

Naxx will have brought his mount just inside the temple's corridor.

After the bison *poofs* away, he will take rear guard with his bow out. (He has good senses and might make a good stout, but he isn't great with a sword and isn't very tough.)

[DueceEsMachine]

Lorenax


*Taking barely a moment to react, he levels his crossbow at the furry beast to their side. To his happy surprise Jorryn moves an instant before him.*
"Strike fast!"

*The mechanical click of the release level sounds loud in his ears, and the weapon nearly falls from his grasp as he startles.*

Jorryn begins to chant, and at the culmination of his chanting a fire beetle appears. Jorryn says in Celestial, "Charge the lizardfolk please!" With that, the beetle charges directly at the nearest lizardfolk, putting extra effort into its strike in an attempt to stop the evil creatures from harming the party. The beetles jaws sink deep into the leg of the nearest lizardfolk, and it tears a great rip in the flesh. Unfortunately, the bite missed the major artery in the leg, despite causing a significant wound.

What was it that Lorenax buffed me with? I don't know what that does.

Casting Summon Monster 1 for a Celestial Giant Fire Beetle, Augmented and Extended to last for 10 rounds. It has 6 HP and 16 AC (14 this round because of the charge) Oh, and forgot that it was using Smite Evil to add 1 to the damage of this attack if they are in fact Evil.

Charge Attack - (1d20+5)[25]
Damage - (2d4+2)[8] + 1 if evil

[Master_Rahl22]

Crit confirm for bite - (1d20+5)[15]
Extra damage - (2d4+2)[5]
