Broderick scowled as he saw Smasher trip and fall. Moving to a position that would prevent the undead from gaining any advantage against them while it provided his comrades with a flanking position against the undead. Taking up a defensive position.  Instructing smasher to sit up.

Smasher sits up as directed.

In reply to Smasher (msg # 46):

Smasher needs specific in-character instructions in order to act. As an automaton, he can't decide what to do on his own. Until otherwise instructed, he is face down, holding his maul with both hands.


With Smasher temporardown, Timeon advances with his broadsword drawn.

Clair launches her stone missile at an advancing zombie. The stone strikes the undead.

In reply to Carruthers (msg # 49):

The golem moves to a kneeling position, his maul is unready.

As Broderick directs Smasher to stand up, he continues to entice and distract the undead creatures, assisting the others to get flanking attacks on these while he defends against any attack directed at him. He quickly assesses the number of undead remaining

Clair focuses once again and another stone missile starts to form.

In reply to Clair Leibert (msg # 52):

Aspard stabs at one with his rapier, and misses with his main gauche.
Frer Noe smashes the same one,
Timeon disembowels another.
Smasher rises to its feet and readies its maul.

Clair hurls another stone missile at the closest unengaged zombie, which strikes it with an definitive thud

In reply to Broderick Leibert (msg # 55):

Broderick's thrusting-only rapier does some damage to the one that Timeon slashed, but not enough to fell it.

There are only two at the top of the stairs, as smasher is blocking a third from advancing. The other was stabbed and smashed by Gaspard and Frer Noe, at which one of the two dies Claire throw her missile at? Both are in bad shape.
Are more below...
There

[Private to GM: one of the one's at the bottom of the stair.]

Quickly pulling his rapier from the creature Broderick stabs at the undead again. Timeon have you noticed these things aren't quite easy to deal with using a thrusting weapon? glancing at him with a disappointed expression.

In reply to Broderick Leibert (msg # 58):

Timeon nods, abd slashes with his sword again, this time felling the corpse.
Gaspard tries to slice at the other injured one, and just misses.
Frer Noe is readying his mace.

Claire's missile strikes one next to smasher, who is currently standing on a pile of corpses. Dex check at -2 for smasher.

Smasher stands placing a foot on several cadavers this slips on the gore and tumbles to the ground; landing heavily on the bodies squishing them, and propelling pieces across the ground.

In reply to Smasher (msg # 60):

From the doorway you can see:  8 bodies, a mutilated undead struggling with Frer Noe and Gaspard, which has just gouged the swordsman's arm,

Smasher lying on the edge of the landing, which looks like it is space he can fall off
(there are two areas like this, one to either side of the steps)

and two undead coming up the steps, which you cannot actually see, but the way these things are slowly rising and advancing at the same time would imply a set of stairs about two yards wide with a gap to either side of about a yard and a half.

One of those two was struck with a stone missile.  both seem to be having difficulty climbing up, and the injured one falls off to the side with a subsequent splash.

Concerned by Smashers nearness to the Landing's edge Broderick directed Smasher to move back towards the group.

Clair nodded with satisfaction at the effect her missile had as she focused on forming another.

In reply to Clair Leibert (msg # 63):

As smasher struggles to walk over a pile of corpses (roll DX-2)

Frer Noe strikes a glancing blow against the wounded dead.
Gaspard tries to stab it in the head, and because it lurches from being struck, he misses, and fails to parry as it claws deeply into his shoulder under his coat of plates, drawing a considerable amount of blood with its talons!

The other one that made it up the stairs trips and collapses onto the other bodies.

Smasher manages to walk over the pile of corpses, reaching the others in the group.

[Private to GM: Smasher rolled 12 v 15 Dex-2 to avoid slipping.]

Broderick stabs at the fallen zombie, which is an easier target allowing him to thrust and withdraw his rapier.

In reply to Clair Leibert (msg # 67):

The fallen zombie is fairly damaged. Gaspard has taken a serious hit!
No one else is injured.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 68):

Noting Gaspard's condition Broderick will move to help Fre Noe deal with the standing creature
Fall back Gaspard so Carruthers and Phylicity can attend to your injury he instructs; then directs Smasher to smash the fallen beast.
