Thud:
Thud also lets fly with another arrow into the dead flesh assaulting them!! With a shout of satisfaction, Thus observes that this one lands in a zombie.

Still behind the cover of the others; hits AC 20 for 5 hp.

13:58, Today: Thud rolled 5 using 1d6 with rolls of 5.  Damage.
13:58, Today: Thud rolled 20 using 1d20+2.  Arrow at undead!


In a master shot that would put some elves to shame, you bury your arrow in the eyesocket of one of the abominations. It that crumples over, becoming part of the growing pile of its companions to once again become one with the soil.

Creston's arrow overshoots, narrowly missing Alietra  still stalking on the other side of the fray.

Riding high from the sight of his last arrow felling one of the zombies, Manaku laughs at the other elf's wild shot as he nocks his next. "Watch carefully," he jeers. "This is how it's done."

Manaku rolled 18 using 1d20+2 ((16)). Manaku rolled 3 using 1d6 ((3)).

Re: [Act I, Scene VIII] Beneath the Winery, Part II

The Exemplars have been lucky so far, cutting down half the shuffling mob's number with barely a scratch. But now luck seems to be running out...

09:18, Today: DM rolled 5,4 using d20,d8.  Z12 attacking Chomper.

A zombie crouches down to try and claw at Chomper, but the hound is far too nimble.

09:18, Today: DM rolled 15,6 using d20,d8.  Z10 attacking Brodd.

Another fiend pushes Brother Brodd's shield aside and bites into his shoulder.

09:18, Today: DM rolled 5,8 using d20,d8.  Z8 attacking Einhard.

Einhard's shield, however, does not falter and he easily keeps his attacker at bay.

09:17, Today: DM rolled 19,6 using d20,d8.  Z7 attacking Iffy.

Iffy screams as plant thing overpowers her. She collapses with the sick crunching of bone.

09:16, Today: DM rolled 7,6 using d20,d8.  Z5 attacking Amalrik.

The monster that clung to Amalrik hungers for more flesh, but cannot connect as the Barbarian lifts his claymore to a combat stance once more.

Manaku arcs an arrow into the torso of the undead beast ripping at Iffy, but you fear it is too late...

A straggler zombie shuffles past the one feasting on Iffy and tries to tear its claws into Regdoc's flesh...

Thud's eyes go wide. "IFFY!! NO!!!" He keeps firing, hitting a zombie that someone else had hurt first to try and drop it.

Again with shortbow, hit AC 15 for 5 hp preferably on a wounded zombie.

09:59, Today: Thud rolled 5 using 1d6 with rolls of 5.  Damage.

Seeing yet another party member fall, Einhard muttered to himself, "This wasn't the way it was supposed to happen. I didn't come out here to die."

Suddenly a new look came over the young Lord. A look of determination and inspiration. He raised his arm overheard, axe in hand, and shouted "Do not fail the Baron! For Masondain!"

"One cannot think like one will be defeated.  Always think of victory and glory."  Eron looks at the last of his spears and knew that he should have packed more.  With that final thought distracting him, he throws it...and it goes wide.

Re: [Act I, Scene VIII] Beneath the Winery, Part II

The old man's arm was nearly shattered as he desperately raised his shield to deflect a rushed attack by one of the zombies. Feeling the shock and hearing terrible snapping sounds, he was afraid to reopen his eyes! Upon doing so, he saw that his shield had taken the brunt of the damage, snapping and breaking and becoming nothing more than useless weight.

"The Wandering One have mercy upon you all," he said as he began backing away. It was clear to him now that they were in over their heads.

"Hold'em off Chomper." Regdoc gave the faithful hound a profound look of loss before he withdrew from the line of battle, waiting until the faithful hound attacked the nearest zombie, providing the oldster an opportunity.


Chomper bite attack - Regdoc rolled 16 using 1d20+1 to hit AC1
Chomper bite damage - Regdoc rolled 9

Regdoc sacrifices his shield to negate death damage and begins a Retreat using Chomper as interference to keep him from being attacked. Intent is to work his way to the back and, if the party hasn't been TPK'd yet, will attack with his sling next round if there are party members & Chomper to protect him.

With a bestial growl, Chomper leaps at the zombie's chest, pushing him down. Foaming jaws sink into the monster's throat until they reach bone. Chomper that was shakes his whole body savagely until the bone severs from the spinal cord, and the creature stops struggling.

She couldn't help but notice the vines attached to these things --  what in hell did that mean?   Was the plant controlling them?

Didn't matter, now;   she did her best to repeat her last maneuver...


Alietra rolled 21 using 1d20+4.  backstab with sword.
Alietra rolled 6 using 1d8.  sword damage.  X2 = 12 points total, nearest foe
Ha!  Rolled same as last time!  What are the odds-?

Still berserking about, Amalrik lunges at the next nearest target - unaware that Iffy has cast down ... He swings at another louting figure ... Swoosh again.

20:55, Today: Amalrik rolled 10 using 1d10+2.  Amalrik - Damage.  20:54, Today: Amalrik rolled 22 using 1d20+2.  Amalrik - Sword attack.

To Hit = 22

When you got it, you got it! Alietra is still dealing final death from the shadows! Which is good because there’s a berserker a few yards from her.
