Re: Lost Souls of Shello
Darting quickly back and forth, Tiberius is quite able to hit the sluggish zombie, each thrust hitting the creature in weak points it didn't even realize it had. It howled in rage at Tiberius and swung it's meaty fist at him in retaliation, but the effort seemed to drain it of the last of the necrotic energy keeping it standing. The creature's fist swung high above Tiberius' head, and he nimbly dodged as it crashed into the sandy beach with a thud.
Then, as he nimbly dodged behind the beasts, he lunged out again, laying into another fel creature. With his blade quick and true, he knocked it down, and it did not get up again.
SpoilerNo, he didn't attack you - it's just flavor text. For the record try and leave OOC to the OOC thread, and OOC comments to your IC posts within this thread, sorta redundant to have OOC comments after your own IC post - you can just edit your post and put an EDIT: OOC or what have you. I try and check both threads several times over the course of the day.

Re: Lost Souls of Shello
Tiberius starts to get somewhat unnerved by the resilience of these corpses. "Damnation, this is taking too long. Wizard! Try burning them with fire or something!"

Re: Lost Souls of Shello
((OOC: Sorry about that, just realized I had him attacking the wrong zombies, edited / deleted the last post to accomodate this. Sometimes at work I get stupid.))
Tarrants arrows imbedded themselves within the zombies flesh, and the creatures appear unnerved. Their howls of rage and fury reflect the necrotic forces within their bodies seeking release, destruction, mayhem - rather than the pain or agony they truly feel. These bestial undead seem to crave your demise, crave the agony that they could inflict upon you - but the warrior woman Mara has set herself up quite well against them, positioning herself between most of the party and the raving beasts.
As such, you are lucky to find their attentions elsewhere, not upon you and your good tasting leg-muscles.
SpoilerZ5 died - I fixed the post. Z4 will die by Mara's attack later this round. The other two are injured. I can post a new updated map as to whose alive if you wish.

Tiberius is also I think a square down from where he is on that map.

Re: Lost Souls of Shello
Simon shifts around Mara, stepping between the zombie and Mara, drawing his mace up, his holy symbol glowing as he quickly utters a prayer to Pelor, raising the club and trying to bring it down on the nearest corpse's head. However, he doesn't stop the fervent prayers of battle, even as he tries to crush the living corpse into the dust. "Pelor, watch over us and protect us this day..." He mutters as he brings his mace down to his side, then hefts it over his head and brings it down hard in an attempt to hit the walking dead before him.

Re: Lost Souls of Shello
With a ringing blow, the cleric of Palor's channeled might seemed to surge within the mace, and smote the creature. It fell to the ground with a fleshy thud, and you knew that though the creature would soon again rise, it was down for long enough to give you a moment or two. It was at this time; however, that a sound seemed to fill the air - an inhuman call which rang through the day. It was hard to describe, as though a bird were screaming in agony, but there were no birds in the sky, no creatures around to have made the noise. An oddity.
SpoilerZ3 is felled.

Re: Lost Souls of Shello
Andarel, back to back with Mara, whispers into her ear. "Wait till I attack, then go for the one right beside you. I'll distract it. Ready...
Andarel then howls as he lunges at the zombie to his side with his greatsword, moving ferociously and wildly. His attack serves two purposes - as he makes to impale his own undead foe, he distracts the zombie to Mara's side, making an opening for her to attack.

You can make a single basic attack as a free action. You gain combat advantage on that attack, and an additional +4 bonus on the attack roll.I no longer actively read the forums, and probably won't respond to any PMs. I'm fine with people using my homebrew in anything, including fan-compilations and wikis, as long as you credit me.

Re: Lost Souls of Shello
With a heavy thud the blade sunk deep into the Zombie's flesh, cutting away enough of it to drop the creature to the floor with a thud. Revealing another beast behind it, another zombie which stood hideously glaring at the group. Most of the creatures were severely wounded - but this one had managed to evade most of the attacks, and seemed to be relatively fine. The inspiration of Andarel's attack filled Mara, and she realized she too was able to attack the monstrous zombies.
SpoilerZ8 drops. Mara's attack. Also, for no apparent reason, the map had eaten Z1 - who is beside where Z8 *was*. I've re-added him to the excel spreadsheet, and will update after Mara's free attack.
Mara's Turn - Fenny's Turn as well, they can act one after another or simultaneously, I'll post their results at the same time.Special Thanks to Kopaka for the wonderful Avatar!

Re: Lost Souls of Shello
Fenny didn't know what to do about the undead. He had never come across any before, and he didn't want to have them take an interest in him.
He pops out from behind his rock, throwing his shuriken at another one of the monsters, and then running across the beach, hiding behind another rock, hoping they wouldn't take notice.
Spoiler
Deft strike, moving 2 squares to the left, then attacking Z2. Then uses his move action to hide 1 square up from the rock 2 squares above Tiberius.
(1d20+15)[16] Attack (+2 from combat advantage, due to attacking while hidden, subtract 2 if it doesn't count)
(1d6+6)[11] Damage (2d6)[10] Sneak attack (still not sure whether it counts against undead in 4e)
(1d20+18)[28] Hide

Me: When I started the adventure, my character was handed a bag full of 100 MW daggers.
Will: Wow, that's, 30,000gp. That's more than you can get with a wish spell
Me: Yeah, it was more than I could ever wish for.
