Strange Aeons: Lovecraftian Affair [DMOOCH]

[lostsole31]

R3T17: Zoo steps closer and attacks in full force, wishing the whole time that the man would just surrender. Boo probes with a nipping bite, he then overextends with his claw for a tiring attack. With his next claw and hoof, he only catches the robe, but his final hoof strikes down on the man's upper right arm with a terrible bruise for 5 real + 6 NL!

R3T16: Haru, what do you do?

He disconnects Meani from the collective, and reaches out toward the downed staggered foe. However, the insanity of the man acts as an effective bulwark in blocking Bangs.

R4T19: Corbin tries to use the newfound distraction to it's fullest, aiming his sharp talons at his opponents vital areas. He claws into the man's upper right arm for 8, digs his claws into the man's groin for another 8, and once he is on the ground pecks him in the belly for 8 again.

R4T17: Zoo blinks in shock of the strength of his new ally, very glad that they're on the same side. Having no target at present, Zoo moves to the hallway and assesses the situation. He drops out of his dog form when he sees that man has fallen as well.

No matter how many times and how hard you get ready at the door, it seems that those on the other sides of these doors seem to be quicker and stealthier than you can manage. As Corbin opens the door and hops to the side, a woman in the same greasy yellow robes as the others you've fought is behind the door with a broken off piece of wood, and swings at Björn, clonking off his armor.

"We already divvied out the stores of medicine we got when our 'previous' group got all the loot from Adminisrator Losandro's office," says Gaye. "Most of those medicines were given to Winter's staff for the patients. Oh, by the way, that just reminded me ... all of you 'new folks' haven't taken time to go through some of the weird stuff we found, possible clues, in the Administrator's Office. Remind me when we get back to the chapel.

"In the meantime," she says, stepping up to the doorway (and therefore requiring Björn and everyone else to step back), "I can hit it with positive energy. That should, if I disrupt it enough, get rid of the creepy haunt and allow us to go look for the body."

S10: She casts CLW, and reaches out and touches the bloody wall, doing 11 positive energy damage (her max).

R1T26: The child's voice is heard again, this time closer, and this time much more desperate and pleading. "Brenton?! Wake up, Brenton!" sobs the child's voice along with the faintest sound of other, almost-distant or faint, sobs and whimpers. Something reaches upwards through the darkness to hit Björn in the neck for 2. Björn has to catch his breath from the surprise of the strike. Then, something reaches up and touches him on the left shoulder quickly. That doesn't hurt, or even impact like the other, but this time Björn feels strange - he can breath, but not a whimper passes his lips. Meanwhile, for those who might know Björn, his voice now seems to be added to the aura of whimpers and cries that are strangely heard.

Spoiler: Björn

You can make no verbal noise ... not a whimper, whisper, not even a rasp .. it doesn't matter if it is a sound that doesn't require vocal chords, your voice can issue no sound.

Sorry, but by taking a 5-foot-step, you automatically lose the ability to delay. When you delay you take NO action (even though a five-foot step is considered a non-action rather than a "free action"), and then go later. You can only use a five-foot step in set up for, or in the commission of, a readied action ... not for a delay. So, Jens takes a five-foot step, but doing nothing else, he loses his turn.

R2T7: Haru backs up a few steps, speaking as he does. "I don't like that darkness. It ate my magic like it was nothing." Once he's far enough away, he prepares himself to hurl magic at anything that may step out of the darkness.

R2T4: Maeni, what do you do?

R2T4: Maeni whispers in the collective before opening her mouth again for a far more nefarious purpose, "Listen if it's hit." She then unleashes a stream of flames in the path opened.

End Round 2, Begin Round 3 ...

R3T26: Something small zips out of the darkness, but Gaye steps forward and casts her readied spell defensively but it fizzles out. Zoo gets bit for 2. From that same spot something zips out to touch Gaye, she starts to gasp .... soundlessly, and everyone now faintly hears Gaye's voice softly lamenting with Björn's.

Spoiler: Zoo

The bite, though not really hurting much at all, pinched your flank just enough to make you fatigued (sheet updated)!

R3T21: Flair, your readied attack ("as soon as I have an enemy to target") did not go off. What do you do?

R3T21: Flair realized that with this thing darting in and out like it was, the only way to hit it was to strike it as it struck. He tensed ready to counterstrike as soon as it struck again.

R3T19: Gaye, through the collective says,

Spoiler: Collective (not Haru)

"Well, it's up to my sword. I can't seem to speak, so no spellcasting for me."

And with that, she thrusts with her rapier to where the attack seems to have come from, but misses so badly she hits Zoo for 7.

R3T16: Corbin, your crossbow is currently unloaded. Be sure to note what ammunition you use, or it will be assumed to be normal, not durable. What do you do?

Björn on deck (like Gaye, you can't seem to speak, but you do realize at least there is the collective), Zoo in the hole (fatigued) ...

R3T16: Corbin grumbles, backing up farther from the darkened room. "We're wasting our time swinging at something we can't see." Corbin sounds agitated, voice strained. He reloads his crossbow and keeps an eye out for any further developments in the fight.

R3T15: Björn feeling a bit of panic rising realizes he cannot hit what he cannot see so he will hold his action pending the next target that presents itself.
