The wyrmpriest curses and spits, forming another icy orb and skimming it at Drake and wreathing him once more in deathly cold. Then he moves north, down the stairs leading to ground level. His remaining guard follows, and both vanish from sight.

The spiretop drake continues to harass its new friend, Rottimer, who is learning more about such creatures and their dentition than he might have liked.

Rottimer's mind raced. His goal of removing 2 combatants fell short. He only ended up removing Froodles target, leaving him without an enemy. And what now? How could he work together with Froodle so they could both be useful. Killing an enemy is great, but leaving your ally with no one to target is often a mistake that leads to catastrophe. As Rottimer sized up the room and the puzzle, he saw the drake hovering and flapping this way and that. He drew his bow and waited for the opportune moment when perhaps his attack would cause the spiretop drake to fall within reach of Froodle. He waited just a beat for the drakes momentum to shift in the right direction and let his arrow fly, just above the breast muscle which Rottimer knew had the potential to cause the Drake to lose altitude. He held his breath as the arrow whispered toward the target. It found its mark and sent the spiretop drake downward where it landed just out of Froodle's reach.

Froodle peeks around the door, that boulder is heading down the corridor towards the drake, who Rottimer managed to knock to the ground. Froodle judges that the drake will not be able to get out of the way, which also means Froodle won’t have time to hit the drake before the boulder gets there.

With no other enemy is sight, let alone reach, Froodle lets out a roar and sends fire from his throat towards the drake in front of him. That should get the drake’s attention and stop him harming Froodle’s friends. For now at least.

But when he closes his mouth he sees that all he has done is scorch the walls, somehow managing to miss the drake altogether. He readies his axe again, resuming his stance, ready to swing at any enemy coming into or towards the doorway.

Drake shivers from the cold that has sapped his Health and bore deep to the core. Drake looks around towards where  the Wyrmpriest and Shielded Dragonshield were but is annoyed that they’ve disappeared.

However, the Spiretop Drake is still in view and Drake is pleased that the strange rolling Boulder is heading towards the prone Drake.

Drake raises his hand crossbow and digging deep into his Dragonborn blood to aid his attack. He aims and looses the bolt which flies true striking deeply into the prone beast. He reloads his hand crossbow pleased with the result.

He notes his own weak condition and Rottimer’s who is still next to him.

Reaching out he touches Rottimer and again invokes the healing properties of Bahamut and sees the healing power surge through Rottimer improving his condition back to full health. His injuries healing before his eyes.

Hmm time to look after myself Drake thinks and necks the last healing potion he has.

Even as he felt empowered by a rush of energy and healing from Drake, Rottimer cursed his own inability to properly time his shot to bring the drake down within reach of Froodle. But at least he brought the creature down to the ground. With a new found surge of energy, Rottimer thought now is the time to make another attempt. The spiretop drake was limping about clumsily and Rottimer decided that perhaps another well placed arrow might make it finally lurch within reach of Froodle. Rottimer shouted down to Froodle, "Get ready, here it comes!" Rottimer drew back his bowstring and took aim at the creatures left leg, hoping to cause it to stumble within reach of Froodle. The arrow hissed as it cut the air and sunk into the flesh of the beasts lower extremity, sending it stumbling toward Froodle.

Froodle holds his axe high and wide, then hears the shout from Rottimer above. He’s ready, at last a chance to lower the axe that was becoming heavy on his arm.

He sees the arrow enter the spiretop drake, the angle of the hit sending it lumbering over to within Froodle’s reach. He swings the poised axe, cleaving through the air, leaving nothing but a scratch on the drake’s armour.

He roars at the drake again, cursing his luck – somehow it keeps evading his attacks.

Froodle rolled 15 on d20 +7 using cleave against the spiretop drake AC16 MISS!

Chaos reigns in this frigid chamber deep in the lower wards of Sharn.

The two remaining gang members move into view, at ground level, north of the platform they had been on, the subordinate still guarding his boss. The wymrpriest sends eldritch cold ripping into Drake once more.

The boulder continues its inexorable advance. This time, it makes an extra, rather disgusting sound as it progresses, and the spiretop scavenger is no more.

What can Froodle make of all this.

Froodle watches the boulder roll past, hearing the squelch as it rolls from the south west to south east over the badly wounded spiretop drake. Enough mess to turn the stomach of anyone not used to fighting he thinks to himself.

He hears the yell of pain, a sharp cold yell from above as Drake takes another hit.

Time to venture out of the safety of the central room.

Froodle knows his allies have had a hard time and needed to use all manner of healing, so he cautiously moves out and around the west and north side of the central room. He knows from Drake that the enemy is on the north side of the East area so he waits, hugging the northern wall of the central room, two squares shy of the north east corner. They can’t see him, and he can’t see them, but the boulder will move them this way and battle will be joined soon enough.

Drake decides he needs a moment to compose himself to warm his bones and to try and get the feeling back into his limbs due to the cold attacks. He climbs down the ladder into the central Room by the doorway.

Rottimer smiled in satisfaction as the beast he had brought to the ground was crushed into paste by the passing boulder. But there was little time for glory. He checked Drake to make sure he was ok and saw him catching his breath in the safety below. Rottimer was thankful for such a selfless warrior, willing to make sure everyone else was healthy before caring for himself. Interupting his thought, Rottimer quickly moved along the wall to where it turned north and followed it until the wyrmpriest and dragonshield came into view. They were not yet aware of his presence as they approached the northeast corner of the chamber. Taking his time, he carefully drew his bow and aimed downward at the dragonshield guarding the priest. It looked wounded and was perhaps close to falling. If Rottimer would take this beast down, the battle would be nearly won. Rottimer drew a deep breath, held it for a moment until his heart recovered from his movement and when the beats evened out, he released. His arrow found it's mark but wasn't able to penetrate deeply enough to reach a vital organ. The creature was grievously wounded but someone else would have to finish the job.

The wyrmpriest moves into the clear, just reaching the alcove to the north. It sees Froodle and points at him, evidently for the benefit of his lackey. Then he favors Geodesic with a blast of cold, which tears the loyal construct apart.

The dragonshield, looking battered, rounds the wall of the room, and meets with Froodle. He tries his shortsword against the fighter's armor, to no effect. Then he shifts to put Froodle between himself and the wall of the central room.

As this happens, the boulder rolls around the corner....

In reply to DM Paul (msg # 37):

Froodle didn’t have to wait long, the boulder was rumbling along so the Wyrmpriest and last Dragonshield couldn’t hang around. The Wyrmpriest had scuttled off into the north wall alcove, he would have to wait for now. The dragonshield however was a different matter. Froodle respected the bravery. Though heavily wounded the creature had advanced and attacked.

Froodle could see that the Dragonshield was badly hurt, so wanted to be sure of his aim. He swung his battleaxe, which recently had a tendency to strike nothing but thin air, taking extra care with his aim.

Froodle rolled 16 on d20+9 using sure strike against the dragonshield AC17. MISS!

Time to find a bard, swap the axe for a banjo and go and practice on some barn doors!

Aware that he couldn’t stay where he was with the boulder in pursuit, he issued a combat challenge to the dragonshield, then moved away, provoking an attack as he turned his back.

Move Option 1:  Froodle moved around the dragonshield and walked into the alcove where the wyrmpriest lay in wait. Let’s see him try to use this freezing orb at point blank range!

Move option 2, to be used if there is insufficient space in the north alcove for Froodle: Froodle realised there was insufficient space in the alcove in the north wall and walked around the corner of the inner room, now positioned on the outside of the west wall to try again.

Drake decides he’s had enough being a healer it’s time to end this. Testing the weight of the Frost sword he moves out of central room
And reaches the north wall. Then seeing the  Shielded Dragonshield and puzzling at the rolling Boulder beyond him, he charges along the North wall and swings the Frost sword for the first time. The magical weapon bites deep finding the chink in his armour between his breastplate and thigh, this blow is the final Culmination of all the damage the faithful Shielded Dragonshield has taken. Drake approves of the manner in which it has defended its master but has finally succumbed. The Shielded Dragonshield is dead. Hmm I like this weapon thinks Drake.

Rottimers eyes darted from Froodle, to Drake, to the Wyrmpriest. Rottimer knew a lot of tricks with an arrow. He would make a creature fall, lung this way or that, slow their pace and even confuse them. He saw the boulder coming and puzzled a way to strike the priest in way that would move him in front of the coming stone. He wasn't confident he could hit the priest, move him, AND keep him from moving out of the way. That was beyond even Rottimers abilities with a bow. So instead, Rottimer chose to draw and hold, in the hopes that an opportunity would present itself. If he could time his shot just as the priest' attention was diverted, he might be able to hit him in such as way as to cause him to lose his balance toward the coming boulder without time to react. As the massive shape rolled toward the group below, he drew and held his breath and bow in silent chorus.

Rottimer sees the Wyrmpriest unleash a magical attack at Froodle as it retreats deeper into the hallway. Before he can get out of site, Rottimer looses the arrow he held at the ready. It flies swiftly through the air but shatters harmlessly against the wall. Rottimer curses and shouts an apology to his team.

Froodle sees the wyrmpriest back away and throw an orb of fire at the wall. His aim is as bad as mine he thinks to himself.

As he prepares to step forward into the space recently vacated by the vile creature he halts suddenly as an arrow from Rottimer comes hurtling down the corridor and hits the wall where the orb also scorched it. Could it be that Rottimer was trying to shoot the orb?

Never mind, he swings his axe high and wide again, this time his careful aim pays off. He has gone for accuracy rather than power, knowing his favoured cleave action would draw more blood, but even that would take a few swings to kill the priest.  Now he has him where he wants him, backed into a dead end corridor, challenged to a combat duel to the death.

Froodle grins, then sees the eyes behind the mask shift left to right over his shoulder, yes of course thinks Froodle, I had better duck or hope their aim is true, as he remembers he now stands between his quarry and his companions with their bolts of radiance, bow and crossbow

Drake is emboldened by the dead body at his feet of Shielded Dragonshield. He observes Froodle enter the passageway after the Wyrmpriest. Drake turns the corner and stands behind Froodle unable to reach the Wyrmpriest with his newly acquired frost longsword.

With an echoing double clang he quickly drops his shield and Frost longsword and draws his 2 handed longspear from where it was stowed.

Drake slides the longspear alongside Froodles shield and with its reach stabs the Wyrmpriest from an angle it wasn’t expecting biting deeply into its flesh whilst Drake prays to Bahamut to guide his hand.

The Wyrmpriest folds over from the devastating long spear blow Dead. Drake says to Froodle ‘You can heal yourself now by the grace of Bahamut’

The wyrmpriest dies at the end of Drake's spear, freezing mist dribbling from his gaping jaw.

As he falls to the hallway floor, his bone mask tumbles off. It's not large, but it is still a trophy from a worthy adversary. Maybe it should be shown to Devlin d'Denieth.

Besides the clearly magical weapon, there's no treasure to be had here. The wyrmpriest carries a tiny silver key and a diagram on a piece of parchment, showing the presence of a hidden door at the end of this hallway.
