In reply to Sal Warth (msg # 246):

Lam winces as the thudding dagger  lands on the floor - "Oh bother, guess it is to be what it is"  and shifts his spear ready to strike if the undead/dead king attacks him.  Hoping his holy protections aid him.   Will roll an attack if attacked - not sure the protection form evil will deter the king from attacking Lam and serve to block the kings movement a round or two for the group to organize their defenses.

Missiles fly as the former king and queen shuffle away from their resting places.  Wood and steel clatter on the walls and floors as they miss their targets.  The dead royals shamble closer, staring ahead with dead eyes.

(Well that was easy.  Nobody hit anything.  Roll Init.  1d6)

In reply to Man in Black (msg # 248):

Seeing an opportunity with nobody actually hitting the Royal Dead "Good King and Queen, as you can see, we don't mean to hurt you, the dead walking sends anguish"

The monk is not sure how this would help with those he speaks to seeming to have no sign of understanding.

(Einlian rolled a 5 for Initiative)

In reply to Einlian (msg # 249):

Lam turns to the group, I do believe we will have to do our goddess's bidding and send these two to there final resting place once and for all especially since the goddess herself will be forever taking this island and all on it to her final resting lace. so I will try this one more time


Lam turns and calls to the Royal zombies, Your goddess sent us to escape her island before she sends it and all left on it with her to eternal peace.  We only wish to pass through to the sea, we are not interested in your royal stuff, show us or point to us the way out in the name of the goddess.   Lam moves back a step to see if they react differently to his request

If they continue on toward him with no change in course, Lam jabs his spear at the closest zombie yelling, We shall send you back to your goddess once and for all.

In reply to Lam Durus (msg # 250):

Sal stays in the background, searching with his eyes, for a way out.  Frightened by the opposing force approaching, he is starting to panic.

11:07, Today: Man in Black, for the NPC zombies, rolled 3 using 1d6.  initiative.

Einlian speaks, but the walking corpses show no reaction.

(Make your actions.  The king and queen are upon you.)

Tath makes a clumsy attack with his weapon.

(Anyone remember what weapons Tath had?  He never updated his sheet.)

17:02, Today: Tath rolled 2 using 1d20.  attack.

Kerkrin, unnerved by facing the undead, fires a bolt into the floor.

17:05, Today: Kerkrin rolled 4 using 1d20.  attack.

In reply to Man in Black (msg # 252):

Assuming that the Royals are actually Attacking rather than pointing/leading us out...

Einlian stands back no longer and tries to intervene. Punches nearest Royal.

(Einlian rolls 19 to Punch Attack. Rolls 1 for Punch Damage)

Rebeccah sets her sights on the queen and sends a couple of arrows her way.  She manages to hit with one, but just barely.

10:57, Today: Rebeccah rolled 1 using 1d6.  damage.

10:53, Today: Rebeccah rolled 14 using 1d20.  attack.

10:52, Today: Rebeccah rolled 11 using 1d20.  attack.

In reply to Rebeccah (msg # 256):

Seeing Lam has no affect on the royal dead nor anything but there response is attacking the grop, Lam steps up and stabs at the closes Royal zombie (OOC - not sure which one was actually nearest to Lam).

And probably misses with a 9.  but the stab looked good :)

Pulling one of his dwindling supply of arrows, Daniv tries to maneuver to a position where he can get a good shot at the king.
15:15, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 4 using 1d6.  Damage?
15:15, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 15 using 1d20.  Attack with shortbow.
15:14, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 5 using 1d6.  Initiative.

Rebeccah's arrow strikes the queen's arm.  She doesn't even flinch as she staggers forward.

Einlian rushes in to engage the queen, pummeling her to little effect.

Daniv aims true, striking the king in his chest.  Though it would have felled a normal man, the Sea King gave no more reaction than the queen with the arrow in her arm.

The dead monarchs strike back clumsily.


20:33, Today: Man in Black, for the NPC zombies, rolled 1 using 1d6.  initiative.

20:33, Today: Man in Black, for the NPC king, rolled 1 using 1d20.  attack.

20:32, Today: Man in Black, for the NPC queen, rolled 1 using 1d20.  attack.

(Heroes are up again.  I can't believe I just rolled three 1's in a row.)

In reply to Man in Black (msg # 259):

Noticing the attacks have little effect, Sal searches with his eyes for somtheing htat might stop them.
"Maybe they are looking for something, or a missing part of themselves, or, not sure."
If possible Sal will try to dart past them, to get a better look into their coffins.

If you needed a roll of some kind.
08:58, Today: Sal Warth rolled 10 using 1d20.  dex check .

In reply to Sal Warth (msg # 260):

This is what I hoped.  A way out maybe, something that says "We are Back" perhaps?

Rebeccah grabs more arrows, launching as fast as she can.  "Don't stop now!  They certainly won't!"


20:14, Today: Rebeccah rolled 4 using 1d6.

20:14, Today: Rebeccah rolled 15 using 1d20.  attack.

20:14, Today: Rebeccah rolled 8 using 1d20.  attack.

In reply to Rebeccah (msg # 262):

Hearing the call, Einlian moved to strike the king from behind, maybe that would show if they could react or not.

((ooc: Einlian rolled 8 to hit {unsure if +2 or +4 to hit for rear attack} 3 damage))

In reply to Einlian (msg # 263):

Lam basically yells at the zombies King Viedel, great sea king, your goddess Athena has commanded us to leave the island in peace, we seek only to leave, show us the way out as the goddess decreed it to be and we leave your island and your treasures to you alone to have.  Pauses a moment to see if that registered and there is any change in the zombies

As he pauses Lam hops to make a difference by praying to his goddess that she will help in some goddess way to show or guide them out and stop the sea king and his wife from attacking and to show the group out.  Oh goddess Athena, your humble servant asks for your guidance and holy might to show us the way out and allow your dead here to help us out so they can rest forever more with you.


If still nothing Lam will plunge his spear again into the Zombie  (Lam has the +1 protection from evil if they are evil)  hoping that helps him defend against the zombies if it comes to that.

Kerkrin loads up his crossbow again and fires.

19:47, Today: Kerkrin rolled 9 using 1d20.  attack.

But he still can't fire the damn thing correctly.

Tath swings at the monster in front of him, slashing into dead flesh with his sword.

19:59, Today: Tath rolled 2 using 1d8.  damage.

19:59, Today: Tath rolled 20 using 1d20.  attack.

Sal runs around the slow moving king and into his crypt.  The chamber is full of mostly useless and moldy goods that were likely only valuable to the king in life.

Rebeccah fires a shot into the chest of the queen.  Though the arrow would have felled her in life, it has no affect on her now.

Tath swings with all his might, severing the head from her body.  Whatever necromancy gave life left her then as her remains fell to the floor.


The King's corpse swings his mace at Lam, ignoring his reasoning.  (or the zombie gave a crushing blow to his attempt at diplomacy.)

Lam takes a crushing blow from the dead king.

20:18, Today: Man in Black, for the NPC zombie, rolled 7 using 1d6+1.  damage.

20:17, Today: Man in Black, for the NPC zombie, rolled 18 using 1d20.  attack.

20:21, Today: Man in Black, for the NPC zombie, rolled 6 using 1d6.  initiative.

(Now the dice decide to go the other way!)



(Just to be sure there is no confusion, you are doing damage when you hit.  )

In reply to Man in Black (msg # 267):

Seeing nothing that could help the party behind the zombies, or at least Sal isn't smart enough to put the puzzle together, if there is one.  watching one fall, He swings into action.
With his dagger in hand, he approaches from the rear. Selecting an advantageous spot to stick his dagger in the back of the zombie.

"Thud."  His dagger gets stuck in some thick material in the creature, inflicting what he assumes is no damage, BUT now announcing to the zombie, "Hey sal is behind you!"
 His sneak attack is now foiled for the future.


Rolled a 4...assume miss.

Daniv stands staring at the attacking undead, seeing no apparent effect from their attacks on them even when they do hit.  However, seeing the Sea Queen's head removed from her shoulders rallies him enough to attack again.  He waits to see if the Sea King turns its back.  As soon as that happens, he fires his bow at it.
16:32, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 3 using 1d6.  Damage?
16:32, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 2 using 1d6.  Damage?
16:32, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 8 using 1d20.  Short bow attack.
16:32, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 13 using 1d20.  Short bow attack.

Einlian takes his chance, seeing others ahead and behind the king, he moves to the royals side. If they were to discover why the undead move as they do, he realised both hand would be better.

Feeking in position, the moment arrived but he got slightly distracted by the maneuvering of others and strikes with both hands simultaneously.

It felt like one hand missed as the king swayed, allowing the other hand to his firmly.

Punch Attack #1 = 5 with damage 1 (it's a miss anyway)
Punch Attack #2 = 18 with damage 2 (that's more like it)

In reply to Einlian (msg # 270):

OOC Not sure but ouch those dice really  hate this group.

Lam, stumbles back from the ferocious hit he just took, yelps in pain and stabs at the Zombie king again hoping to make a better presence with his attack while trying to defend against the Zombies attack al the while yelling, We need to send these Zombies back to the dead and quickly


Note sure but if Lams hit but I forgot to add +1 to damage for Lams strength if he indeed did hit.
