She wants to save others, but throwing their lives away on a suicidal charge would be...well, suicidal. Her hand goes to the Decanter at her side, a holy relic she was charged not just with using, but protecting. "We should not fight the dragon, we'll have to find another way."

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

Finding himelf suddenly awake, Mustafa immediately starts thinking about his family out there, and how many of his siblings might have fallen already. Still, if they managed to take on the thick of the invasion, maybe the others could be saved.

If they're still alive.

He shook his head vigorously, finally letting go of Cassandra's shoulder and standing up on his own. The adrenaline of battle immediately came back to his blood once the sleeping charm wore off, as he didn't waste any time before chugging two of the healing potions Chloe had just gathered. With the strength returning to his muscles, he grabbed his shield and ran to the door. "If there's really a dragon on the other side, you better stay clear from its breath. Time to find out how powerful is the magic of this shield."

Sabian holds the door shut despite the scratching and thumping of zombies and skeletons on the far side. When everyone is ready, he yanks it open and steps to the side.
Cassandra steps up and fires a cone of flame towards the stairs, hoping to clear their way out (hits the most enemies), while Chloe flings a flask of acid and Vidrik fires another heavy bolt. The flames wash over the enemies, mostly zombies, and Vidrik's bolt shatters the sternum of the skeleton in front of the door before destroying a zombie. Chloe's acid splash hits a pair of zombies, creating an acrid scent of melted flesh.

Whether for sheer luck or for the mercy the gods, Mustafa stood unharmed at the door of the Lab. Blows glanced off his blessed shield, attacks were repelled by the law of Sanctuary he had evoked and that still cloaked him against any harm; Part of him didn't even believe it was real, still in denial and hoping, madly, he might still be able to save his family from the attack.

"Why are you all standing in the stinking cloud? Wait for them to come to us."

It was only when Vidrik's voice broke through the darkness that Mustafa stepped out of his frenzy. His vision was red, his blood rushing with adrenaline. A mad laugh escaped from his lips after another glow glanced off his shield. "How can I step back, Vidrik?" He was interrupted by a violent cough, and his voice grew gruffier under the effect of the smoke. "When I brings me so much pleasure to humiliate them?"

But the attack didn't stop. Mustafa was one, and the monsters were many, and more and more would come. He stepped back, always holding his shield forward, bashing it against their blows and keeping his position even in retreat. "Come, then, fiends! You cannot kill me! You cannot harm me! You do not exist!" He banged his crescent moon scepter against his shield. He wasn't sure whether zombies could see in the dark, but damn it, they would hear him.
