    R3T10: Brother Jaume moves five feet diagonal to stand next to Flair. He calls upon his deity to provide his holy favor to his humble servant in his hour of need so that he might protect his flock. “Flair, are you in need of assistance?”

    Erastil hears his servant's plea ... not only in enveloping his right fist with his a small mote of his god's wrath .... but also in allowing the cleric to keep that blessing for himself for another weapon .... or another friend in need.

    R3T1: "I hope you don't mind," says a voice in the dark, rubble-filled room, startling Jens even more. "I snuck in here with you when you came in. Your friends need you." There is a sound of spellcasting, and something reaches through the thin layer of rubble and touches Jens on the shoulder. The door opens. "Now get out there. Whatever you can do to get the old man to keep fighting. He's the key. Aid him, and get the others to do the same."

    End Round 3, Begin Round 4 ...

    R4T24:
    Nadya concentrates on a spell and shoots a coruscating ray at the Tatterman, but misses.
    Spoiler: Nadya >>> Collective

    "I'm sorry, Dorn. All I have now is ray of frost."

    R4T22: The Tatterman's razor cuts across Dorn's upper right arm. It seems like he should have cut, but left no mark. Another attempt to cut the old man just ends up getting thrown to the side by a powerful deflection field.

    R4T21: Corbin, when you awoke and foud your crossbow next to you, you also noted that your magic fang also had gone. Fighting to the south, you are prone, weapon is on the ground. You are still shaken. What do you do?

    R4T20: Wondering if that really happened or if the recent bout of supernatural terror was causing his grasp on reality to slip, Jens rises unsteadily to his feet and moves back into the hallway to see what is going on back where his allies were fighting. He isn't in the mist yet, but he does see Corbin just inside some yellow fog.

    R4T19: Flair, what do you do?

    R4T19: Near as he could tell, everyone had been roused from their sleeping spell. With that danger dealt with, he shuffled a little way further into the mist. He has a shot at the Tatterman, but just as he takes a shot, the Tatterman lashes at him. Flair feels that some weak magic attempt to protect him, but it is no match for the insane speed of the Tatterman, who slashes Flair in the larger of the two calf muscles. Not enough to do real damage, but removing 5 THP. The sudden jolt is enough to throw Flair's attempt well wide, but at least he keeps concentration on his totem.

    R4T18: Dorn again calls on Torag to favor His servant. The first attack is a solid miss, but the second attack is foiled by the fog.

    R4T17: Flair, you sense that the battle insight that you had to make a man bleed terribly from your unarmed strikes is no longer with you.

    Maeni, what do you do? Just outside the fog (for you are at the edge), you see Jens returning.

    R5T20: Not seeing any combat immediately, Jens will move up next to Meani, and ask through the collective:
    Spoiler: Jens >>> Collective
    Show
    "I am back. My apologies I... am not entirely sure what happened, but if anyone needs assistance I still have a bit of power left."

    R5T19: Flair chided himself for trying to use the tether again. He was about to try and knock the Tatterman off guard to help Dorn when it disappeared from sight. He had been too busy wracking his brain on how it could have healed the way he did to look for telltale traces of spellwork. Rather than continue to attack blindly, he brought his arms up in a defensive gesture until he could establish where it went.

    R5T18: Dorn says aloud, so Brother Jaume is not left out. "Everybody east of where I'm going; Brother Jaume next to me with detect magic looking west." He then moves out of the west and into some rubble at the end of the corridor (for those that can see that). His hammer is up and ready to slam down if the Tatterman comes his way.

    R5T17: Maeni, you successfully cast summon monster I! What do you summon, where do you put it, and what do you tell it to do? Then, what do you do for your own action? Do you take Dorn's advice/ request/ order and go east of his position?

    R5T17: As a golden hound appears near Brother Jaume, Maeni simply says to it, hoping the Tatterman would qualify, "Seek the odd smell!"

    The golden hound does so, and then barks furiously at Flair. At the same time, Maeni tries to get a better look at the place where it stood. She stands under Nadya, and doesn't see anything in Ulver's square other than Ulver's mutilated corpse.

    R5T10: The solidly built monk moves next to Dorn as asked and Prays for aid seeking to detect magic in the area. He senses magic in the area.

    End Round 5, Begin Round 6 ...

    R6T24:
    Nadya clears the area to a point in the air behind the monk.

    R7T20: Hearing Nadya, Jens looks up, he sees naught, but can almost feel the bloodthirst hanging over his head. With certainty, Jens calls out, "He is above me!" and quickly works to gather power to himself. The usual loud display occurs and Jens focuses it before lashing out at the air above his head and stepping away from the unseen threat, hitting nothing.

    R7T19: Flair stepped closer and fired his tether above Jens. If Jens was right and he was lucky, he might be able to get a hold of it. Flair, as usual, is not lucky.

    R7T18: Dorn has some difficulty squeezing around the rubble but gets to a spot where he can than swing at where the Tatterman is believed to be. Torag guides his hammer true as he strikes for 16! A hideous screech of pain is heard.

    R7T17.1: The golden dog perks up its head sideways and goes tearing to the east, barking. It gets past Jens and Dorn and barks at the incorporate air.

    "The dog found it, and I'll spray water on it."
    Maeni moves to have a sightline to the suspected position. She only has a partial bead, but without needing to target the Tatterman directly, it doesn't matter. She casts a spell directly at the ceiling above where the Tatterman is supposedly floating. A tiny bead of water forms, threatening to balloon out, but instantly winks out of view, the magic unable to find itself in a suitable receptacle.

    R7T10: Brother Jaume will move east down the hall carefully to take up position next to the golden pooch.

    R7T1: The sound of a man's voice is heard chanting somewhere down the hall, but nobody sees anything.

    Detect evil.

    End Round 7, Begin Round 8 ...

    R8T24:
    Nadya belches lightning at where the Tatterman is supposed to be, doing 1 electricity to something 5' off the ground there.

    R8T22: To a lesser creature so beleaguered by enemies, it would perhaps be unwise to reveal one's position and to escape while possible. But this creature is one of true hatred and malice, and even so inconsequential a strike as what Nadya gave it causes the Tatterman to lash out at her, ruining his invisibility as he slashes her right foot for 8. Yet, he grimaces in anger as that wound barely shows at all (having all been absorbed by a still-active vigor).

    This is the first time this battle that Maeni gets to actually see the Tatterman, and even that with some cover between them. The Tatterman is truly a uniquely horrifying, terrifying sight ... far more than anything else she has - in her current memory - ever faced before. Even though she keeps her mental strength from eroding at the sight of the creature, still there is not much more of this that Maeni can handle before she is likely to lose her grip on reality.

    R8T21: Corbin, you hear the sounds of combat. What do you do?

    As soon as Corbin brought up his aim to look at the Tatterman, something snapped in his demeanor .... though being a tengu it is hard to get a bead on it. His shot misses, but because he almost relaxed too much as if he is looking at some far-away incident.

    "I think I shall step away from direct confrontation if someone else wishes to step up."
    Fulfilling his mental words with action, Jens steps away from the horror that is the Tatterman. Taking a deep steadying breath, Jens then tries to force the Tatterman into the collective. Jens is easily rebuffed against the alien mind.

    R8T19: Flair advances towards the Tatterman. Not wanting to abandon his totem, he was only able to get into position for now, but there's not much else he can do to help. To the voice that spoke earlier, he responds in with, "A bit busy at the moment, but I'll be sure to pass that along," before tepeing the collective about its request.

    "You heard the thing; if you're able and not too busy directly assaulting the Tatterman, see if detect evil shows something other than the obvious."

    R8T18: Dorn's hammer is almost magically lifted by angels to strike the Tatterman again for 14, and then 15, each swing debilitating in their own way, and hurting the evil creature true against the Toragdan saint's smite. He then bravely steps right underneath the horror.

    R8T17: Still flush with Jens' power to protect her, Maeni decides to take a gamble and rushes to an opening, purposefully drawing an AOO. Sure enough, she is slashed along the belly for 6, all of which seems absorbed by the vigor. She casts a very simple spell and touches Dorn.

    "Here's a little boost to help your next attack!"

    R8T10: “May the power of Lawful retribution flow from my fist and send you back to whatever nightmare realm that spawned you, fiend!” shouts the enraged clonk as he punches at the floating horror in a flurry of powerful jabs that the Tatterman easily dodges.

    End Round 8, Begin Round 9 ...

    R9T24:
    Nadya hovers where she is and fires a ray of frost at the Tatterman in the chest for
    3 cold.

    R9T22: The Tatterman hovers over Brother Jaume now, but he seems badly battered. He takes a quick study of Dorn, the one who has hurt him so badly. He now begins to recognize the threat he is facing, and attacks the older man defensively. That choice is a failure, as his slash gets through the holy protection and even Dorn's studded leather, only to find that the man has leathery skin to stop the blade. Even a strange visual double of the Tatterman's war razor misses.

    R9T19: Flair grimaces slightly, doing his best to maintain his totem while waiting for the Tatterman to get close enough to harry. It wasn't much, but it was all he could reasonably do at this point.

    R9T18: Dorn calls on the last of his favors with Torag for what might be his final onslaught, even as he uses the insight that Maeni has given him. His warhammer slams against the Tatterman's upper right arm for 13. His final blow is a critical to Tatterman's chest for 16 .... enough for Tatterman to fall and spill off of Brother Jaume to land behind the cleric.

    R9T17: Given her current lack of resources and closeness with the creature, Maeni prefers throwing more sparks around, which - thanks to the totem of war - triples the amount of damage Maeni does to the Tatterman, for 3 electricity! It is not known if that is what is needed to finish him off or not.

    R9T10: BJ makes sure the creature is truly dead with a flurry of magic punches to its head, striking for 5 mod and 8 mod (something about him seems to resist blows from Brother Jaume's fists, which is not what happened with Dorn's hammer). He thinks the Tatterman is dead, but he isn't sure, because of how resistant his body was to his powerful blows.

    End Round 9, Begin Round 10 ...

    R10T24:
    Nadya flies over and alights on the other side of the Tatterman.
    "Is he dead?"

    R10T22: The Tatterman makes no movements, and where he was seen a couple times to auto-heal during the battle, that is not apparent at this time. The strange doubling look of the war razor that lies next to him ends.

    R10T21: Corbin, your crossbow is unloaded. You know what to do...

    R10T21: "What!? Whats happening, they're all around us!" Corbin darts away from the group, slapping a fresh bolt into his crossbow and loosing a shot at the first target that catches his maddened glare: Flair. The shot lacks all of Corbin's normal discipline and focus as the bolt impacts behind Flair's head, spattering and scoring the wall with a corrosive.

    R10T20: Jens, the hope is that the Tatterman is down. In the meantime, it appears that Corbin is having some type of psychotic episode. He just shot his most dangerous bolt at Flair. What do you do?

    R10T20: n what Jens feels to be a healthy amount of paranoia, Jens attempts to add the fallen Tatterman to the collective while simultaneously attempting to soothe Corbin with the Collective's telepathy. He is unsuccessful on the first (either because he is rebuffed, or because he no longer has an active mind), but he knows his message got through to Corbin, as his casual mental senses detect no disruption over the collective.
    Spoiler: Jens >>> Collective (except Corbin)
    Show
    "Calm down Corbin, this is me Jens. I am not sure what you are seeing, but you just shot at Flair our friend."
    Spoiler: Jens >>> Corbin (via Collective)
    Show
    "Corbin, this is me, Jens. Trust in what you are seeing ... Flair is no longer our friend!"

    R10T19: With the Tatterman apparently dead, Flair turned to the more pressing problem, as he'd like to avoid any possible arrows to the face. Abandoning his totem for the time being, he takes a step forward and lunges at Corbin's legs. "Get a hold of yourself, Corbin!" he says as he tries to take the archer off his feet, but finds the corvid crossbowman in every way his physical superior in combat as he doesn't even come close to even touching him.

    R10T18: Dorn, still filled with dread at the fight with Tatterman, but no longer any righteous wrath, casts the one spell he had remaining that was useless in the past battle, calling on his powers as an emissary of Torag, not just a warrior.

    Corbin, roll a Will save vs. a charm effect!

    Corbin feels a wave of calm wash over him, like a delicious depressant. He suddenly becomes listless. Their is an undercurrent of danger, but Dorn immediately recognizes the change and with voice and over the collective, he eases Corbin. Dorn comes from his place at the other side of the hallway towards Corbin, waving away everyone else, including Flair.

    Assuming everyone respects this development ....

    Combat Ends!

    Dorn will follow-up by going to Corbin, guiding him to a sitting position on the ground, and holding his hand, speaking soothingly.

    R1T19: Corbin freezes, not even daring to breath. His thoughts come confused and crazed through the collective.
    Spoiler: Corbin >>> Collective (Jens, Maeni only)

    "Is this real!? Am I really seeing this!?"

    Tensing up, he readies himself to either run or fight.

    R1T14: Jens, Ulver just came from upstairs, and surely passed Corbin and spoke outwards to the apostles, and then you perceived Corbin's frantic tepe. Ulver is 10' above you at the top of the landing. What do you do?

    R1T14: Seeing the crowd of zealots before him, and their dead leader making a dramatic appearance behind, Jens knows that the day was only going downhill from here. Thinking through his options, Jens realizes he has only bad and worse options. Sighing in resignation, Jens palms the potion of invisibility to Maeni and tepes the collective.
    Spoiler: Jens>>>Collective (Maeni, Corbin)
    Show
    "Maeni, drink what I just gave you and run and warn the others, I will try to buy some time here."

    Out loud, Jens asks, "What is your vision Ulver? I suppose it involves slaughtering my friends and I?"

    R1T12: The congregation of apostles, bristle, sensing that they might have non-believers in their midst. Crowbars, table-legs, chunks of rock rubble, saps, and other normal and makeshift weapons are brandished, but they wait for their leader to continue.

    R1T8: Ulver looks to Jens, "Slaughter you? No, for your friends made the ultimate sacrifice and found the traitors in our midst."

    Looking to the rest of the apostles he says, "My people, my visions reached other survivors that were called up to me. These two here - Jens and Maeni - are heroes. For they uncovered the treachery that the Bag Lady and her confederates attempted. Loomis and the traitorous apostles are now dead, slain by these heroes hands. I am safe, and I go with these two to reward them, for hear me, the hour of my apotheosis is at hand!"

    A cheer wells up at these words.

    "Eat, make love, enjoy these hours, my children. But for now, I have sent Jens and Maeni to fetch Dr. Wren for me. For he, too, has a part to play in our glorious ascension!"

    A huge cheer now wells, and Jens and Maeni think that it might .... be for them?

    Ulver turns and heads out of sight, presumably heading up the stairs.

    Ulver turns to you, and doesn't seem to notice you at all, looking past you as he heads your way. As soon as he passes beyond view of those downstairs, he disappears, a split-second before you were likely to shoot him just for coming close!

    Dr. Wren looks at Jens and Maeni. "Let's go now, my fellow celebrants."

    R1T5: Maeni, what do you do?

    Corbin on deck, Jens in the hole ....

    A small strip of muddy sand choked with reeds sits at the entrance of a low cave just at the lip of the bay. Scraggly vines drape over the top of the cave and hang like tangled hair over its mouth.

    Obscured from casual observation by vegetation, this small cave mouth opens in the limestone face of the water’s edge. This part of the shore is approximately 8
    feet above the water level, so if the PCs approach this area from the shore, they have to descend to what serves as a beach in front of the cave.

    Okay, so who is going to climb down first, what precautions do you take, etc.?
