OOC If that is not feasible, he attacks.

As the horrible humanoid has no weapon in hand, Robustous manages to hit him!
Stormrider manages to grab the staff and immediately he starts trembling. [Private to Stormrider Sureheart: For the next round you will be busy dropping all your weapons apart from the Staff. You don't want them anymore, now that the Staff is in your hands and you can't resist the urge to drop all your other weapons.]
Garl casts successfully his cantrip, but can't see any effect.

Storm without reason starts divesting his twin swords. He grasps the staff and attacks the beast,

OOC: Does the staff have any power?

"Do you yield ?" Andor asks before hitting him again if there is no answer.

Robustous Clovetrue rolled 18 using 2d6+10.  Attack.
Robustous Clovetrue rolled 4 using 1d6. = 3 STA Damage.

[OOC: of course the Staff have powers! You just don't know which powers yet... :)
By the way, you will be able to attack next round: on this round you just drop your weapons.]

Storm will attack with the staff next round or see if he can work the staff.

Garl casts Ironhand on Storm.

Robustous attack manages to pass, although barely, and connects with the horrible creature.
Storm feels an unbelievable surge of power.

The thing was not going to give up so Robustous swung again.

Robustous Clovetrue rolled 16 using 2d6+10.  Attack.
Robustous Clovetrue rolled 3 using 1d6. = s STA Damage.

[OOC: I'm going to use these rolls:

Robustous and Storm hit very hard the horrible creature, that falls to the ground in a thunderstorm of dark energies, and you swear you can actually wretched souls of undeads being released!
After some time that you feel was too long for your very soul to bear, it is all quiet. On the floor there is just a handful of ash, quickly dispersed.

Robustous steps forward and uses his axe to sift through what is left of the beast. He will check over any of its possessions should anything be left.

-

The only leftovers are the Staff, that is now in Storm's hands, and the black knife that it dropped right after the beginning of the encounter.

Storm tries to use the staff and sees if he can use its power.

You can feel its overwhelming power, but you can't understand exactly how to use it. You are a fighter rather than an expert in magic.

Robustous moves to the black knife to have a closer look before searching the rest of the room and checking any exits.

-

The wicked dagger is made of obsidian and it radiates evil magic.
Looking around, it looks like there are no other exits from the room.

Garl examines carefully the Staff in Sorm's hands, although he doesn't seem very keen on that. After a minute he can recognize it as the Staff of Hamaskar, the objective of your quest!

[OOC: Staff of Hamaskar
Staff + 1 MAGIC, free Light spell, Indestructible
This wonderful Staff comes with a bane: no other weapon, whether magical or mundane, may be ever used or carried by the Staff’s wielder. The Staff of Hamaskar is said to be the only key that can open the magically sealed doors to the legendary Library of Skelo.]

Then, Garl examines for a while the obsidian knife, before touching it with the tip of his finger. He suddenly flinches! Eventually, he recognized the ungodly weapon.

[OOC: Nadzag
Dagger + 1 SKILL, +1 Attacks, +1 Damage
Forged in the hellish Pits of Zagora, this Obsidian Dagger bestows many magical gifts on its owner. But on the seventh day from its first use, its wielder will become a sentient Undead! Such was the fate of the humanoid that was wielding it when you entered this room...]

Storm has no need for the staff and is willing to give it up. He prefers to fight with twin weapons.

Garl will wield the staff, if nobody objects.

Storm offers to trade weapons with Garl.

"Right so now what ?" Robustous wipes his axe clean on whatever is available.

-

On reading carefully storm don't want the dagger. He is happy with his twin blades.
