R8T14: Hargrimm steps to the east to get a better view on two of the rats. Then he throws another two vortices to both rats, missing both.

R8T13.4-13.0: Rat 1 steps up to Marius, a faint, sickly red glow forming around its mouth but missing him. Rat 2 likewise steps up to Lexi, with a similar fell glow along its little rodent jaws, also missing. Rat 3 begins cutting across to the east to find a way, with Marius missing it with his hammer. Rat 3 finishes around a rocky column to also attack Marius with a glowing red bite (and missing).

The Splatter Man's voice builds to a crescendo and ends, the sound of magic ending, and a bright flash indirectly to the southwest, and a large spider the size of a companion dog with red and dark and smelling not unlike the heavy, dark, ugly odors of the rats appears. The Splatter Man hisses something an unknown language and the spider skittters along the same relative path as Rat 3 took to then Marius from the NE. Dark red energies form around its mandibles - just like the rats - and misses.

The Splatter Man then comes out of the western walls out of anyone's immediate reach. Zauberei reacts by tearing out the summon monster IV spell, doing 3 damage to the evil spirit. The Splatter Man is right up on Hargrimm and concentrates, casting a powerful magic missile which moves out to strike Hargrimm, Zauberei, Angelo and Marius each with one maximized bolt for 5 force each. He floats 5' above the ground.

R8T12: Marius, what do you do? You sense Rats 1 & 3.

R8T12: Marius not-so-nimbly ducks and dodges his way past the summoned vermin to assault the Splatter Man again with his polearm, getting bitten by the spider as he begins his movement. The spider nips into his right thigh for 3 mod + 2 poison! When he reaches the spirit, his polearm takes on an otherworldly sheen as it rapidly lashes out at the monster. Had the Splatter Man been at ground level, perhaps it could have been a flank that succeeded, but up in the air as he is, the lucerne hammer just barely misses the vengeful ghost.

R8T10: Rat-2 gets struck for 10 (and is dropped) as Wren appears south of it.

R8T9: Realizing he finally has something he can hit, Alexandru lashes out at Rat-1 with his sword, crying out "I'll get you, you dirty rat!"

Upon striking it, the rat disappears from view a sort of popping sound and an eruption of magical dust.

R8T7: Hidden to the north, Paula lets out an angry squeak at Lexi's unfeeling, racist comment.

R9T15: Angelo utters an arcane incantation and moves closer to the Splatter Man with his hand aglow. He hopes that his slapping skills are not too out of practice. Though he fails to "slap" anything, as his hand goes through the edge of the Splatter Man's obliques, but the ghost resists it enough to only take 3 PE.

R9T14: Hargrimm steps a bit to the east to get a better angle on the spider and throws more vortices at the Splatter Man and the spider. The Splatter Man lifts his legs and tilts over end just getting missed by a vortex even as his hand reaches way down and barely graces Hargrimm's foot ... but barely is enough. Meanwhile, the other vortex misses the spider.

R9T14 (Cont'd): Despite his incredible dwarven vigor and willpower, the pain of arthritis shoots up Hargrimm's fast aging legs and body as he takes 14 aging. He barely stands, his beard gray, his eyes rheumy, and with greater crags and wrinkles in his face than before.

R9T13.3-.1: Rat-3 pursues Marius w/ a short step, but Marius pushes it off with his hammer. The spider also does a 5' "step but by climbing onto the edge of the oubliette's wall. It snaps its mandibles at him but misses.

R9T13.05: Zauberei shouts out to the group, "Someone come and get this spellbook I am holding, then rip out all the spells. It will damage the Splatterman."

He then casts a spell and hits the spirit with two force missiles that strike the Splatter Man in the chest for 7 force.

R9T13: The Splatter Man concentrates and sends out another set of juiced up magic missiles: one strikes Hargrimm for 6 force, dropping him; one strikes Zauberei for 3 force; Angelo for 7 force; and finally Marius for 4 force. He flies across the room - getting missed by Marius' hammer - to then glower over Zauberei from his height of 5' off the ground, pronouncing, "You are no true wizard that would destroy magic so."

R10T13.05: Zauberei channels a bright light of healing power that provides 3 healing and stops Hargrimm's bleeding. Zauberei pants some from the effort, as it seems that is the maximum strength his body has to push such planar power through his body. He begins moving over to Hargrimm. Nethys is with him this time, though, for the Splatter-Man's corrupting, ghostly hand is stopped by Zauberei's magic field of armor.

"It's another long spell! Try to disrupt it!" Marius calls out.

R10T10: Wren casts a spell on his hand and moves up to the Splatter Man. Wren's hand goes through the spirit's elbow and discharges and is resisted for only 5 PE, and the ghost doesn't lose its spell.

R10T9: Alexandru, your warhammer is dropped while you fight with longsword and shield and some minor mental impairment. You are mentally connected to Angelo, Hargrimm, Marius, & Zauberei.

R11T15: "I wonder if this fellow truly appreciates all that we are trying to do in order to help him," Angelo says with a smirk as he begins to cast a spell. But that smirk quickly fades to horror as in his casting and confidence - Angelo forgot to do so cautiously as well. A ghostly hand reaches from above him to pass through his abdomen for 24 aging. Liver spots form on his casting hands, his lustrous hair grows dull and limp and begins to gray, and the effort is too much as the older-Angelo loses his spell.

R11T13.05: Zauberei, what do you do? You still have The Splatter Man's spellbook in hand.

R11T14: Seeing the danger the ghosts presents he changes his plan of action and aims a spells at the spirit, striking it with 2 bolts of arcane energy for a total 7 force. "I can damage the spirit with spells, someone get the book and tear out all the spells at once."

R11T13: The Splatter Man almost faltered when struck by Zauberei's spell. Almost. But proving himself a superior wizard to Zauberei, even in death, he manages to find the supernatural fortitude to continue casting and his spell ignites. Energy coalesces and forms just north of the fallen dwarf into a small creature that none of you are likely to have ever seen before. The body of this red-tinged creature is kind of blob-like, with many tentacles forming from it. The Splatter Man points to Hargrimm's body and hisses, "Smite!"

The mini-monster forms faint, baleful energy on its beak on the underside of its blobby-body and the tips of its tentacles, and bites Hargrimm in his arm for 4 + 1 poison, even as its tentacles attempt to find purchase.

As for the Splatter Man himself, he concentrates on a spell, and sends bolts of energy of his own at Hargrimm (5 force), Zauberei (3 force), Angelo (4 force), and Wren (3 force) before disappearing into the wall to the north, cackling wildly for the pain he causes.

R12T15: "Where did that strange hand come from?" Angelo asks with an aged voice. He then reaches over and tears out another spell from the moldy book.

R12T14: Hargrimm's dwarven constitution defies and defeats the poison in his system. Hargrimm smacks his lips at the aftertaste of the potion, but stops in wide eyed terror when he sees the sea octopus(?) so close to him. Not wanting to risk the spider's bite by running, Hargrimm channels energy to heal, providing up to 10 healing to everyone. He is no longer disabled, but he is prone ... and now he is too tired to push planar energies through his body anymore.

R12T13.5: Zauberei, what do you? Though Angelo ripped a spell out (magic missile), you have no idea what effect it might have had, if any, and you are the one still holding the book.

R14T12: Marius attacks the Splatter Man with his polearm, the weapon's point taking on a white sheen matching Marius' haggard face as he stabs at the ghost even as his old claim on the ghost ends. Unfortunately, his hammer comes so close before it is deflected by supernatural power.

R14T10: Wren comes around the corner and closes on the Splatter Man and gives a wide upwards slash to the ghost's head for 6 mod.

R15T15: Angelo stumbles back a bit from those last impacts and utters a phrase that ignites his hand with a glow. Then with a wink touches his chest and wounds knit up for 10 healing, effectively doubling his health, but also causing a flash of fleeting warmth as his most powerful bardic spells are depleted.

R15T14: Hargrimm, you are currently prone, but no longer weakened. What do you do?
