Filimena raises an eyebrow. ”I’m... not sure that was supposed to happen,” she says, hesitantly. After a pause, she motions at the now open door. ”Well... Gentlemen first?”

Marik nods and signals Rani to advance forward, a bit puzzled. He remembers seeing some elves using similar spells when he was young for mundane task. The appearance of the "hand" varied for all users, but...never like this. That was...unsettling. And judging by Filimena reaction, he doesn't seem to be the only one thinking something seems...off.


"What...is this?" mutter the elf to the others, as he enters the dark room with Rani. Marik isn't quite sure what he was expecting from what appeared to be a old mine, but it wasn't walls of black stones designed to absorb light.

Rani slowly advance about ten feet forward, sniffing the air while Marik check the walls, floor, ceiling and the cages for any signs of life, his bow at the ready. His vision dim in such darkness, he tries to concentrate on any source of sounds in the room.

And then there was that scuplture...Was that was passed for art in dwarven circles? No, the stonework of the rooms above definitely showed better craftmanship that this. That was... wierd.


OOC: If Marik or Rani doesn't spot anything, they would stop within ten feet of the sculpture, to the right of the first cage.

As Marik looks over the statue it moves and slams into the elf sending him almost off his saddle.

Omaron, surprised at the savage attack from the statuary, takes a step back momentarily. His features become determined as a small, nearly spectral pyramid pushes itself from the floor just inside the chamber with the cages. In moments, spectral vines sporting massive thorns writhe out from the totem reaching out to ten feet. As the dwarf steps forward, the vines move to leave his progress unimpeded as he moves too engage the spiky creature.

Filimena recoils momentarily in surprise, but catches herself and hisses in anger as the statue lands its blow on the elf. Raising her staff, she sends a glowing purple beam hurtling towards it.

OOC: Eldritch blast. 15 to hit. 8 Force damage.

Filimena will generally try to keep her distance from the statue without getting too far from the rest of the party. Not sure if she’ll be able to take advantage of Omaron’s +1 AC bonus but she’ll try.

Raszire moves forward to support and assist Omaron's efforts in attacking the creature, golem, statue or whatever the thing may be.

Current AC 19

09:01, Today: Raszire Toumash rolled 9 using 1d6+3 with rolls of 6.  Mace Damage.

09:00, Today: Raszire Toumash rolled 19 using 1d20+6 with rolls of 13.  Attack with Mace.

As the panther roar in rage, a out of breath Marik say [Language unknown: "Winti..."] with visible effort. The panther hear the command, and begrudgingly restrain from attacking the statue, jumping instead ouf the way to bring Marik behind Omaron and Raszire.


OOC: Rani make a ten feet move action back, to go behind Omaron and Raszire. I'll take the attack of opportunity (with AC 17 thanks to Omaron). As a Mounted Combattant, Marik will take the attack instead of Rani.

Still stunned and dizzy, Marik turn on the panther as she jump out the way, and let loose the arrow he had prepared in the vague direction of the statue. Thankfully, even in this state, the arrow easily find it's mark on the large form of this living rock.

OOC: After the move action, Marik fire his bow. Marik rolled 20 (not natural) to hit, and would do 9 points of piercing damage plus 14 poison damage (CON DC 11 for half) t the creature.

As she land some distance behind Omaron, the panther make a confused face at the sight of thorny vines sprouting and curling out of the floor. Growling, she recoil a few times at the sight of new plants emerging from the floor and prepare to jump out of the way again. Marik notice the sprouting plants but is too groggy to try to make sense of them this turn.

As Marik withdraws the statue's spiky arm slams into the elf. Marik notices that the poison arrows aren't packing that extra oomph against this creature.

OOC: It will take that AoO
10:44, Today: Stone Spike rolled 21,6 using 1d20+6,1d8+4 with rolls of 15,2.  AoO vs Marik AC17.

Marik - Take 6 more damage

The statue whirls around, one spiked arm just missing Jor'en but the other catching Omaron square in the chest knocking the wind out of the dwarf.

OOC Who to attack?
12:31, Today: Stone Spike rolled 2 using 1d6 with rolls of 2.  1-2 = Jor'en, 3-4 =Omaron, 5-6= Raszire .

12:32, Today: Stone Spike rolled 6 using 2d20+4, dropping the highest dice only, unique dice with rolls of 15,2.  Attack vs Jor'en w/ disadvantage .
Should've been +6 to hit but doesn't matter.

As the battle rages, the door to the west opens and out steps an Ogre! "Wha' hav we here? More carrion for my larder! Very nice" it says with a toothy green. A horrible smell emanates from the room and the ogre, like refus and decay. Reaching back into the room, the Ogre pulls a MASSIVE falchion and takes a few steps closer to the group

OOC: Xukasus is ~40ft away from the statue which the party is fighting currently.

As Marik regain his senses, he see the large statue arm slamming hard into the dwarf chest. He see his arrow firmly stuck into the thing chest. Spider poison doesn't seem to affect it in any matter.


As the elf considers his options, the west door slam open to reveal a new figure entering. A BIG figure with a horrible smell...Actually, Marik has trouble determining if the view of that massive falchion is worse than the smell that comes with it.

Marik curses. All right, changes of plans! He fire his bow at the newcomer, really hoping spider poison will cut him the envy to eat.


OOC: Marik rolled 22 to attack with the bow, and would do 8 points of piercing damage, and 8 points of poison damage (COn DC 11 for half).

OOC: Sorry, I made a mistake on the dice roller. I first tought I could roll with advantage thanks to Natural Explorer (which allow to do that on enemies that haven't yet acted) but as I second-checked it's only on the first turn of combat. Thankfully, the first result gave 22.

Noting the entrance of the foul smelling Ogre, Raszire decides to continue his attacks on the statue like creature hoping to end it before the Ogre can get close.


16:05, Today: Raszire Toumash rolled 4 using 1d6+3 with rolls of 1.  Mace Damage.

16:05, Today: Raszire Toumash rolled 25 using 1d20+6 with rolls of 19.  Attack with Mace.

Raszire's Zirathnian Steel mace connects with the statue causing it to shatters into a dozen sizable chunks.

OOC: Stone Spike is done!

Marik's arrow hits the ogre squarely causing the massive creature to let out a roar of pain.

OOC:
13:16, Today: Xukasus rolled 9 using 1d20+7 with rolls of 2.  Con save vs poison DC 11.
dang!

[Private to GM: 16/91]

Just as he let loose, Marik hears a loud crack and turn to glance at Omaron and Raszire, fearing the creature managed to land a heavy blow on one of them. Instead, he see the steel mace break the stone in piece. He take a breath of relief and rejoice.


Before he can say anything, he hears a second, loud noise. The ogre roars in pain, the arrow stuck deep near the jugular. Already the creature movement seems a bit more erratic and wobbly.

"It's taking hold!" say the elf, pointing the ogre. "Aim for the knees!"

Reeling from the stony spike's blow, Omaron shakes his head for a moment. As he realizes there is a new enemy in the room, he takes a breath, hefts his axe and steps over the chunks of the now dead spike. "Come on, then, ugly," he shouts. "I think you'll find my axe too sharp for your uncultured palate." He hefts his shield, making as small a target as he can offer for the ogre.

FIlimena swings around to face the newcomer and backs up to keep a distance from it. Grinning at the dwarf's comeback, she lets loose another Eldritch Blast, this time at the ogre.

OOC: Not sure it hits this time

07:02, Today: Filimena the Gentle rolled 12,12 using d20+7,d10+5, rerolling ones with rolls of 5,7.  Eldritch blast w/ Agonising Blast.

The ogre cross the distance with ease, despite Omaron's thorny totem making it difficult. With two heavy slashes of its blade, the monsters chops at Omaron with one slash missing but the second connects solidly sending the dwarf to one knee for a moment.

16:49, Today: Xukasus rolled 9,14,21,14 using d20+7,2d8+4,d20+7,2d8+4 with rolls of 2,2,8,14,8,2.  Attack vs Omaron x2!

Marik cringe as he hears the massive blade slamming into Omaron shield and the Dawi, still standing, grunting in pain. He doubt he or Rani would have survived that. Normally, he'd be content to have others take blows in his place, but this time feels different. The dwarf wasn't just struck by chance, he volontarily stepped up to meet the ogre and taunted the creature into attacking him to protect the rest of them. Given his size and the size of the room, Rani and him wouldn't have much room to escape if that thing came in close combat.

That...That deserve respect. The Dwarf may be saving their lives at the moment.


"Come on...eat this and stay down" mutter Marik for himself as he draw another of his few remaining arrows and draw his bow once more, aiming for the neck. The arrow flies and hit the creature throat, not too far from the other.


OOC: Marik rolled 18 for attacking, does 9 point of piercing damage and 10 points of poison damage if he fails his save.

Moving forward to aid Omaron, Raszire took a swing at the ogre just missing his mark.


22:04, Today: Raszire Toumash rolled 12,4 using d20+6,d6+3 with rolls of 6,1.  Attack and damage.

FIlimena curses under her breath. This is not good. The dwarf looks pretty badly hurt. She backs up as far as she can and launches yet another Eldritch Blast at the ogre, this time hitting it, albeit not quite with the force she was hoping. Was there anything else she could do? She had spell slots. But too few, and who knows what else they might face down here, and when they would have the chance to rest again.

OOC: 25 to hit, 7 force damage.

17:23, Today: Filimena the Gentle rolled 25,7 using d20+7,d10+5, rerolling ones with rolls of 18,2.  Eldritch Blasst w/ Agonising Blast.

Omaron staggers back to his booted feet, spitting blood to the floor. He shakes his head then calls out in a guttural tongue. A soothing breeze swilrs around him, and he stands a little straighter, looking the ogre in they eye. "You call that a hit? My gran hit harder than that, and she's smaller than the halfling back there. Come on, do it again."

Not one to let a single miss dissuade him, Jor'en sent his rapier dancing through the air til it found its mark in the ogre's gut.

09:48, Today: Jor'en rolled 15,11,4 using d20+7,1d8+4,2d6 with rolls of 8,7,2,2.  Attack, Rapier, Sneak Attack.

Rage burns from the Ogre's eyes as it's massive falchion slams into Omaron twice, with his totem magics preventing the first from connection.
