Castlevania II: Dracula's Curse (IC)

[J-H]

In the east,
Cassandra's flames wash over the zombies, then Vidrik shoots one before retreating.

In the west,
Chloe and her construct do a small amount of damage. One of the zombies lurches at the right time, and dodges the acid. Sabian stabs the zombie in front of him, almost killing it... but it's not ready to die yet (ZA succeeded on Undead Fortitude save). Mustafar burns two of them, but again, they don't go down (ZA passes Undead Fortitude save; ZB saved for half damage).

The eastern zombies lurch after Cassandra and Vidrik.

The western zombies crowd around Sabian and Mustafar.

Sabian stays hunkered behind his shield as the zombies clamber by, the relic making it nearly impossible for the zombies to strike him. Chloe and Mustafar throw acid and fire at the undead. One almost goes down but continues shambling forward. Sabian strikes with his spear before stabbing another one moving by.

Mustafa the Vampiralgietch Human Cleric AC: 17 HP: 17/17 PP: 13 PIv: 10 PIs: 13 Conditions: -- Concentrating: --

Mustafa adjusted his position to cover Sabian's flank and stepped into the zombie's attack, raising his shield to throw its blow out of the way. The other zombie got through his stance, but not through the millimeters of steel that protected his shoulder. Mustafa immediately swung his Holy Symbol back at it.

Attack ZA: (1d20+5)[19] for (1d4+3)[7] bludgeoning damage

[J-H]

The power of the holy symbol wielded by Mustafar causes the zombie he strikes to instantly de-animate and be at rest again. Cassandra hits another zombie with some flame.

Chloe's acid splash targets ZB & ZD, and her homonculus hits ZD, leaving it barely functioning (1hp). Sabian's strike also leaves another zombie quite near destruction. Vidrik's shot cleanly destroys his target's head.

The eastern zombies shamble in pursuit.

The western zombies continue to try to bring down the meals so close in front of them, slamming bodily into them and knocking them to the ground. Their armor still holds!

Minute 11, fight zombies (that was around 5 combat rounds / 1/2 minute) -> Minute 12
Descending the stairs, you see a group of four skeletons (three normal skeletons and one bearing a staff) starting to come up it as you reach the landing to the rear hall. Looking down the hall, whoever is in the front of the party can see four more skeletons ascending the stairs at the east end.

There are also 6 more zombies in the hall, and the doors to the Great Hall and Barracks stand open (map here). Although you're not near them, you can hear scraping and rasping sounds as though something large is moving around inside the Great Hall. Wisps of yellow-green fog trail out of the Barracks door.
In the far distance, you hear an animalistic voice chanting in a rising crescendo. It ends with a sound like that of a pane of glass shattering into a hundred pieces.

Mustafar blocks any follow-up attacks, smashing the offending skeleton to smithereens and healing her with a word.

The other skeleton slashes out at Mustafar with its sword, drawing blood. Down the hallway, the group of skeletons at the other stairs turn, and launch arrows at the party's front line. Sabian barely deflects one with his shield. Mustafar isn't as lucky, and one finds its way past his armor.

Sabian strikes out at the skeleton in front of him, but it deflects his blow with its sword. Cassandra's jet of flame brings down the closer skeleton wizard, ending the Slow effect on the group. Mustafar, badly injured, casts a spell of warding on himself.
