Though Ramuh is aware of newcomers to the fight behind him, it strikes him that these need not be enemies. Allies, then. Just as well.

Ramuh calls upon the storm broiling within, and as his staff arcs with lightning raises it aloft. The storm discharges, sending a furious bolt of lightning streaking towards the bone warden from above!

Standard: Pinning Bolt on Bone Warden
Attack: http://orokos.com/roll/201628 (21)
Damage: http://orokos.com/roll/201629 (26)
On a hit: knock prone and slow the Bone Warden

Minor Action: Do nothing
Move Action: To O-14

"But he's undead, too? Sir, why are you here?"

3x Religion checks http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4538927/

Ramuh's lightning bolt strikes down at the warden from above, but it nimbly raises its shield and the lightning is deflected to the sides of the skeletal giant. It then shambles forward and braces itself, looking ready for a fight.

Bernkastel (Religion): Bernkastel has never seen undead like these creatures before, aside from the revenant, which she knows as souls raised and given new purpose by some death-related agency. Though Kelemvor himself is rarely said to be involved in such a transaction, he does permit the existence of revenants, because they are generally not attempting to cheat death or raised by individuals for selfish purposes--instead, a revenant usually seeks to fulfill a task that it was unable to pursue in life, or serves a higher and greater cause in general. Revenants generally do not possess clear memories of their past life, but have an instinctive and sometimes unconscious drive towards their purpose, even if its true nature remains mysterious even to the revenant itself.

Ramuh misses the bone warden with pinning bolt. Ramuh moves.
The bone warden moves and readies an action.

Myn wonders what onset of insanity had brought Sid to assume that either side of the conflict would be worth assisting, and moreover how he determined which to assist. The pervasive evils of magicism embedded in his mind must have concluded that the uglier side would be more deserving of death. Perhaps the larger creature has rebelled against the lich, utilizing the oozing creatures to combat the loyal revenant and escape, or this battle is staged to instill a false ally within the group for a later betrayal.

"Perhaps the paladin will put his bloodthirst to good use and kill them all."

Torinn is... Conflicted.

On the one hand, there is an undead creature right in front of him. And he's never heard of a helpful undead. They're always the cogs in the machine of an evil plot, attacking innocents and raising hell.

On the other hand, this particular undead is under attack from the others for whatever reason. Perhaps it defected? It wouldn't have been the first time he was wrong about generalizations.

This is too much to think about right now; Torinn will decide who is right from who is left.

Moral quandaries are not the best thing to have on one's mind during battle, however, and the paladin's valiant charge towards the bone warden is easily parried.

Invoke radiant damage from weapon
Charge bone warden : http://orokos.com/roll/201709 (20, 25)

As Torinn bears down on the hulking skeleton, it fixes its gaze on the approaching dragonborn. Out from it in a cone-shaped pattern blasts a wave of dark energy, and Torinn feels its dark power focus inwards on him. Now bearing a vile, debilitating curse, Torinn is wide open for the warden's scimitar, which solidly smacks the dragonborn's armored shoulder, bruising the skin beneath and causing Torinn's own swipe to go wide. However, the radiant energy surrounding the blade manages to discharge and does cause the skeleton to rear back in apprehension. This does the bone warden little good, however, as the energy strikes it and seems to linger as it scorches the creature's ribcage.

Torinn charges the bone warden. When he moves within 2 squares of it, the bone warden takes its readied action.
The bone warden uses marked for death, placing the death mark on Torinn. Until the end of the encounter, Torinn treats his bloodied value as his maximum hit points value. However, he does not lose any hit points over this value immediately.
As part of this action, the warden also makes a basic attack with its scimitar. It hits Torinn for 27 damage, and Torinn is slowed. This doesn't stop Torinn's movement since he's mounted.
Torinn's basic attack with holy smite misses the bone warden for 14 radiant damage (increased from 9).

Ramuh's keenly aware the pus spitters spit pus, and mentally names them pus spitters.

Religion: http://orokos.com/roll/201812

Sureiya delays after bernkastel

"It doesn't look like we can wait. Mr. N, pick a target near us, and not the revenant." With that, the shaman conjures air spirits to shuffle her allies around and one iron archon spirit to power Myn's attack.

Meanwhile, the shaman's spirit companion appears above a distnat spitter, beckoning for Sureiya to follow and pointing out his target.

Free action: Draw Chieftain's Short Spear.
Minor action: SC to J-23, elevation 1.
Move action: Reorient the Axis. Myn, Sid, and Sureiya can shift 5 squares each. Sureiya needs to move 5 squares closer to I-24, and Myn needs to move close enough to hit something with Eldritch Blast.
Standard action: Direct the Strike for Myn, since I was silly and asked Rin to dismiss SC.

Still unsure of what's going on, the ranger trusts the shaman's order and follow it dutifully.

The following calculations assume CA from SC

Shift and move to J-23 (Athetlics check: 20 http://orokos.com/roll/201820)
Lashing leaves with Furious Assault! (One hit, for 17 damage) http://orokos.com/roll/201821 http://orokos.com/roll/201822

Apparently there's little choice but to wait after all.

Shift to N-9.
Eldritch Blast attack against Bone Warden:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4540313/

"H-he's a revenant! I've heard of this, they're not bad guys!" Sid calls out, even as the shaman's air spirits urge him forward along with Sureiya and the warlock. The warlock is also incited by some spiritual assistance to aim a bolt at one of the undead blobs, but the shot goes wide and blasts the corner of the nearby table off instead.

As the half-orc lunges forward, the shaman's spirit companion forms over the nearby table. Sureiya easily hops onto the table, knocking several vials of arcane dust to shatter on the floor beneath him as he does so, and lays down a flurry of slashes that neatly hacks the undead blob to pieces. As it's being hacked apart, there is an explosion of acidic pus from within which Sureiya has to turn aside with one sword even as he draws his off-hand back to deliver another blow. The acid barely deters the ranger, and in less than two seconds the abomination is little more than a few scraps of undead flesh sitting in a pile of pus.

Bernkastel draws her spear.
Bernkastel summons her spirit companion and uses Reorient the Axis, Sureiya, Myn, and Sid shift.
She then uses direct the strike on Myn, but Myn's eldrtich blast misses.
Sureiya moves and hops on the table (thanks to a running start), then hits with lashing leaves for 21 damage, also causing the pus spitter to take 2 extra damage from attacks until the end of Sureiya's next turn. As an immediate reaction to being struck, the pus spitter uses a close burst 1 attack called pus splatter, which misses Sureiya for 5 acid damage.
Sureiya uses off-hand strike, which hits for 27 damage. This bloodies the pus spitter.
Sureiya spends an action point! Jaws of the wolf hits once for 46 damage and kills the pus spitter (the 2nd hit isn't necessary).

Myn occupies a corner, unwilling to come into contact with the flying pus.


Move action: Move to L-12.
Minor action: Curse Spitter 3.
Standard action: Blazing Starfall, centered at T-17.

Attack:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4540477/
Damage:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4540480/(10)

Myn moves to a corner before placing his curse on one of the blobs of undead flesh, then calls down a shimmering meteorite in the midst of his foes. Though the spitter manages to withstand the explosion, the warden is seared from the inside, radiance burning his skeletal frame. It is about this time you hear a commotion from the north side of the room, where the wall is broken through--and out slides one of the goblin zombies, scampering down the pile of rubble. With a chittering laugh it hurls a dagger at Ramuh, but the agile revenant knocks the knife out of the air with his staff. Growling, it lunges at the bearded sorcerer, but stumbles and misses with its swing. It manages to stumble into the middle of the artificer and the sorcerer, threatening both. The distant pus spitter spits another blob of pus, this time at the paladin, and Torinn is the first to feel it sink into his armor plating--it is highly corrosive and burns at his flesh.

Sid is quick enough to slip away from the goblin zombie, and aims his crossbow high. A bolt shoots into the air, and then explodes above Torinn, encasing his tiger in a swirling windstorm which knocks the lil' murderer right into Torinn's aura. A second later the gnome tosses one of his infusion canisters on the ground towards the paladin, and the vapor that it expels infuses Torinn with a bit of extra resilience. He'll need it, because the pus spitter that Myn cursed skitters up the nearby wall and again spits at Torinn. Sid tries to interrupt the attack with a charged bolt from his crossbow, but it goes wide and strikes the wall, so again Torinn is coated in the undead's corrosive spit. Seconds later, another of the goblin zombies emerges from the broken wall to the north. It repeats the attacks of the first murderer but doesn't have any more success.

Looking at the broken wall to the north, all you can see from your current vantage is a high pile of rubble that would block most passage, unless you could climb it.

Myn moves and curses spitter 3.
Myn uses blazing starfall, which misses the pus spitter but hits the bone warden for 15 radiant damage (increased from 10).
Lil' murderer 2 enters the battle. It uses killing spree, throwing a dagger at Ramuh but missing, then charging Ramuh with another dagger but missing again. It shifts 2 squares as part of its melee attack.
Pus spitter uses spit pus, which hits Torinn for 19 acid damage plus ongoing 5 acid damage (save ends).
Sid shifts, then uses gale-force infusion on Rutger. Rutger gains a +6 power bonus to AC until the end of Sid's next turn, and the attack hits the lil' murderer for 10 damage and slides it 2 squares, but misses the bone warden and pus spitter. http://orokos.com/roll/201976
Sid uses resistive formula on Torinn, Torinn gains a +1 power bonus to AC until the end of the encounter. Torinn can use a free action to end this effect and gain 28 temporary hit points.
Pus spitter 3 skitters up the wall and then uses spit pus, which hits Torinn for 16 acid damage plus ongoing 5 acid damage. Sid uses shocking feedback but misses. http://orokos.com/roll/201979
Lil' murderer 1 enters the battle. It uses killing spree, missing Ramuh with its thrown dagger and then missing again when it charges Ramuh with another dagger. It shifts 2 squares.

Ramuh pays little heed to the conversation from his newfound allies. "I'll explain at length after the battle," he says, moving across the field and lifting his staff again. Lightning discharges anew, this time bolting towards one of the newcomers.

Shift to N-15.
Standard: lightning strike Lil' Murderer #2 (Attack 20, damage 21)
(http://orokos.com/roll/201990)
Doubt it hits, but if it does, inflict 5 damage to Murderer 1.

Ramuh darts away and calls down a bolt of lightning, which the goblin zombie nimbly dodges, grinning tauntingly at the revenant.

The hulking skeleton bears down on Torinn, and though the dragonborn manages to block one strike of its sword, another is a solid slash across his chest, and warden's shield nearly bowls the paladin over, with only his magic boots keeping him upright. As the acid continues to eat away, Torinn feels himself faltering... he'd better do something quick.

Ramuh shifts, then misses the lil' murderer with lightning strike.
Torinn gains the THP from resistive formula.
The bone warden uses double attack, hitting Torinn once with its scimitar for 20 damage.
As a minor action, the bone warden uses shield bash, which hits Torinn for 9 damage and would knock him prone, but he stands thanks to his boots.
Torinn takes ongoing 5 acid damage.

While Rutger manages to slash the incoming lil' murderer, Torinn's mind is poisoned with worry and doubt after being heavily injured. What should have been a sure hit with radiant power is easily deflected. What should have been a simple affliction to deal with continues to eat at his strength.

As the goblin is forced towards the tiger, it whirls and lunges with a claw, swiping through the zombie's midsection.

Torinn draws back his blade, and frost forms on the sword's edge as he brings it down in an arcing swipe towards the warden's skeletal neck. The icy shards burn with radiance, and though the skeleton blocks the strike with its shield, the glowing shards scatter and stick into the skeleton's joints, hindering it greatly. Torinn staggers, and the acid continues to eat away at his armor.

Rutger's raking claw hits lil' murderer 2 for 16 damage.
Torinn's chilling smite misses the bone warden for 16 cold damage, and the bone warden takes a -5 penalty to damage rolls until the end of its next turn.
Torinn fails his saving throw.

The half-orc disengages from the defeated blob of flesh, and picks out another for a target, throwing himself in its general direction and bringing his mainhand sword directly through the top of it, splitting off a big chunk of of the pus spitter. The disconnected flesh splatters against the nearby table.

Bern delays after Myn

Wondering why the group doesn't find other convenient battlefields with corners to hide behind, Myn calls forth a headpiece of superior luminescence and wills it to burn an enemy.

Eldritch Blast against Murderer 1.
Attack roll:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4545720/
Damage roll:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4545721/

Myn adjusts his position before adjusting his hands, holding both forward and grasping his rods carefully between his fingers as he summons forth a thick beam of radiant energy, which strikes the wounded goblin zombie with a blinding flash. As the energy subsides, it forms a shimmering crown over his head. The shaman also moves forward, her spirit companion moving to distract the wounded zombie, and calls the spirits to grant Torinn aid--they do so, but are limited in what they can do to bolster him by the death warden's curse. She then calls a spirit guide for Myn, and his signature eldritch blast scores a shoulder hit on the unwounded, but now cursed, murderer.

The blinded goblin zombie lashes out, stabbing upwards towards Torinn, but can't find the dragonborn through the haze clouding his vision. Skittering away, it is blasted by Torinn's radiance before it looses a dagger from its hand, which sails right past the paladin. The pus spitter scrambles away from Sureiya before blasting him in the face with a blob of acidic pus, though Sureiya manages to avoid a critical wound by partially parrying it with his sword, he is still coated by the acid, which he feels burning through his armor. Sid quickly tosses a canister onto the ground, and as Torinn breathes in the vapors he feels somewhat revitalized, and the gnome follows by shifting away from the goblin and plugging the wounded one with an enchanted bolt, which energizes both Torinn and his mount with its magical backlash. Another pus spitter lobs some pus at Torinn but misses spectacularly. The other goblin zombie charges into the party's back ranks, but utterly fails to land a hit on the shaman.

Myn moves, then uses armor of dark majesty to place a curse on murderer 2. He uses crown of stars, which hits the lil' murderer 2 for 26 radiant damage (boosted from 21), which bloodies and blinds it. Myn spreads his curse with rod of corruption.
Bern moves and moves her spirit companion. Bernkastel's inspiring word lets Torinn spend a healing surge and regain 37 hit points.
Bernkastel uses direct the strike, Myn's eldrtich blast hits the lil' murderer 1 for 18 damage.
Lil' murderer 2 uses killing spree, recharged when it was first bloodied, missing Torinn because it's blinded, then shifting and taking 16 radiant damage (up from 11) from Torinn's righteous radiance. It misses Torinn with its ranged dagger.
Pus spitter 2 shifts 1 square, then hits Sureiya with spit pus for 15 acid damage plus ongoing 5 acid damage (save ends).
Sid shifts 1 square. Sid uses magic weapon against lil' murderer 2, which hits for 15 damage. Torinn and Rutger get a +1 power bonus to attack rolls and +4 power bonus to damage rolls until the end of Sid's next turn. Sid uses resistive formula on Torinn.
Pus spitter 3 misses Torinn with spit pus
Lil' murderer 1 moves and misses Bernkastel with a melee dagger.

Ramuh tires of the pus spitting around, which is rather rude. He sends a crackling bolt of lightning at it, directing some of the lightning at the bloodied zombie nearby. Ramuh then decides to take up a better position; near the small Gnome that had professed him 'not dangerous'. Honestly, Ramuh disagreed, but he wasn't a threat to these people at least.

Standard: Lightning strike pus spitter #2.
Attack/damage: http://orokos.com/roll/202933
On hit: 5 damage to pus spitter #3

Minor: Nope.

Move: To Q-14.

Torinn draws on the arcane rejuvenation offered by Sid to sustain himself against the Bone Warden's onslaught.

get THPs

Ramuh calls down more lightning, this time solidly striking one of the pus spitters--the mass of undead flesh looks quite wounded by the blow, and is barely holding itself together. The crackling bolt arcs from one pus spitter, and though it lessens in power as it does so, it still strikes the other undead blob and elicits a jiggle from its pulsing flesh.

The bone warden bears down on the paladin, first pushing him to the ground with his shield and then raising his sword. Towering over the hapless Torinn, two sword strikes slash into the prone paladin, though their effect is lessened by the lingering effects of Torinn's earlier smite. Torinn feels the extra resilience Sid provided enabling him to shrug off the blows even as the acid continues to eat away at his flesh.

Ramuh uses lightning strike, which hits pus spitter 2 for 17 damage. Pus spitter 3 takes 5 lightning damage. Spitter 2 is bloodied, this increases Myn's aura.
Ramuh moves.
The bone warden shield bashes Torinn, hitting for 0 damage (reduced from 4) and knocking him prone. The bone warden uses double attack, hitting twice for 10 damage (reduced from 15) and 12 damage (reduced from 17). Torinn is slowed until the end of the warden's next turn.
Torinn takes ongoing 5 acid damage.

With Bernkastel's forewarning about an oncoming attack, Torinn counterswings against the creature. And then tries a second time to knock the sense out of the skeletal fiend.

Though the spirit's helpful warning isn't enough to aid Torinn in dodging the shield, his counter-strike is a solid hit through the skeleton's ribcage, and his magic sword's holy light burns the warden from the inside-out. The dragonborn climbs back to his feet and charges his blade once more with holy light, though this time the hulking skeleton is ready for him and blocks the blow with his shield, though the radiant energy still discharges in a flash and sears the bone warden a bit more.

Torinn's powerful warning-granted melee basic attack hits for 21 radiant damage (up from 16).
Torinn stands and uses valiant strike plus holy smite, which misses for 14 radiant damage (up from 9).
Torinn fails his save against ongoing damage.

Feeling strangely empowered, Ramuh casts an unfamiliar spell: what should have been lightning and fury instead is frost and calm.

Granted attack: Dragonfrost on Murderer 2
Attack/Damage: http://orokos.com/roll/203017
Should have +2 for CA, Direct the Strike bonus already incorporated. (Bern incorrectly mentioned Spirit Infusion as of writing.)

Though the half-orc fails to shake off the burning acid, his twin blades strike away much of the undead blob's remaining flesh, and it seems to barely hold together as it quivers underneath his wrath. The warlock unleashes a torrent of psychic energy briefly, which confuses the murderer long enough for both him and the shaman to slip away. The warlock punctuates this with a blast from his radiant crown, which staggers the heavily wounded goblin zombie, and an iron-archon infused sorcerer attack finishes it off with a blast of frost.

"Bernkastel" then calls forth her elemental spirit once more as the nearly-dead pus spitter attempts to skitter away from Sureiya, but the half-orc gives a final slice that splits it in half. Sid moves closer to the ranged ranks and attempts to shoot the wall-climbing pus spitter with his crossbow, but it just barely deflects the bolt with a well-timed jiggle of its fleshy body. It retaliates by throwing a blob of pus at Ramuh, but it is ill-aimed and the revenant doesn't even need to move out of the way. The remaining goblin zombie throws a dagger at Myn, but it also goes wild due to Myn's shifting image and his magic armor granting him extra protection against his cursed targets.

Sureiya takes ongoing 5 acid damage.
Sureiya hits twice with twin strike for 10 damage and 17 damage. He fails his save.
Myn hits murderer 1 with all the sand, all the stars for 18 psychic damage. The murderer is dazed until the end of his next turn.
Myn sustains crown of stars using his sustaining cloak, hitting the murderer 2 for 23 radiant damage (up from 18).
Bernkastel uses direct the strike, and Ramuh's dragonfrost hits the murderer 2 for 22 cold damage and kills it.
Bernkastel moves and summons her elemental spirit.
Pus spitter 2 shifts, and Sureiya kills it with a battle awareness-granted melee basic attack for 21 damage. http://orokos.com/roll/203074

As the lil' murderer expires, Ramuh grips hold of some of the necrotic energy used to revive it. When he raises his staff aloft to make more lightning and thunder come down, he infuses it with a little of that necrotic energy before moving. The elder revenant interposes himself between the dazzled murderer and the group of new-found allies, trusting in his ability to continue turning the enemy attacks to naught.

Ramuh glides north before lobbing a ball of thunderous energy towards the goblin zombie. Though it is still quite dazed and out of sorts, it manages to roll aside and dodge the explosion of electricity. The bone warden tries its signature pattern of attacks again, and again its effective--Torinn is sent to the ground by a bash from the towering skeleton's shield, and though he rolls to the side and dodges the first slash from the scimitar, the second catches him in the side, and he's not looking too good right now, especially with that acid still eating away at his flesh.

Ramuh moves and misses the lil' murderer with thunder bomb.
The bone warden hits Torinn with shield bash for 3 damage and knocks him prone. It then uses double attack, hitting one for 17 damage and Torinn is slowed until the end of its next turn.

Not even the guidance of the spirits or the fury boiling in his blood is enough for Torinn to land a hit against the warden. Furious at the constant deflection of his attacks, he spits lightning at the distant spitter, then parries the attack the warden tries to hit him with. It still hurts him deeply, and acid still eats at his skin, but Torinn stands defiant.

"Come on, then!"

Valiant strike failure to hit : http://orokos.com/roll/203141 (26 does not hit)
Dragon breath against pus spitter 3 : http://orokos.com/roll/203145 (22, 2)
Save against acid damage : http://orokos.com/roll/203144 (3 does not save)

Torinn's furious strike is just barely turned aside by the bone warden's scimitar, and as the dragonborn turns to unleash a torrent of lightning from his maw, the bone warden punishes him with a vicious counter-strike. While mostly deflected by the dragonborn's plate armor, the strike is charged with necrotic energy, which saps most of Torinn's remaining strength. The pus spitter is shocked by the lightning, however, and subject to Torinn's sanction. Meanwhile, the acid continues to eat away at the two melee members of the party...

Torinn's valiant strike misses the bone warden.
Torinn uses dragon breath on the pus spitter, but since the attack doesn't include the bone warden as a target, it interrupts with warden's fury, which misses for 11 necrotic damage. Torinn hits for 2 lightning damage and the pus spitter is sanctioned until the end of Torinn's next turn.
Torinn fails his save. Sureiya takes ongoing 5 acid damage.

Ranged Twin Strike against Spitter 3: (23: 13 damage and 25: 8 damage)
http://orokos.com/roll/203159
Use disruptive as soon it tries to attack.

Sureiya eyes his next target briefly before moving forward and hurling his magic returning blade at it twice, and each slice takes off a bit of the undead blob's flesh.

Sureiya uses death threat, setting his quarry, and the pus spitter grants combat advantage to him until the end of his turn.
Sureiya moves and uses ranged twin strike, hitting twice for 13 damage and 8 damage.

Myn has begun to run low on bamboozle.

Move action: Move to O-12.
Minor action: Sustain Crown of Stars against Murderer 1.

Attack roll:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4549517/

Standard action: Cast Shared Agony against Murderer 1.

Attack roll:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4549518/
Damage roll:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4549519/

The warlock confronts the remaining goblin zombie directly, though blasting it with his starry crown doesn't work out too well. He settles for a blast of psychic agony, which leaves the murderer reeling and coming apart at the seams--literally, as is often the case when dealing with undead.

Myn moves and misses lil' murderer 1 when he sustains crown of stars.
Myn's shared agony hits lil' murderer 1 for 26 psychic damage. This bloodies it and increases darkspiral aura.

"Mr. Tormine won't last if we ignore the skeleton much longer. Hurry with the other targets."

The Spirit of Athas position looks off on the map. The spirit companion's does too, but it's disappearing this turn.
Sureiya should be at V-19.

Minor action: Spirit's Sacrifice, granting Sureiya a saving throw against the acid. SC disappears.
Minor action: Call SC to T-17. 4 THP for Torinn.
Standard action: Granite Armor. Torinn has Resist 7 all untli EoNT. SC disappears. http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4550023/

The shaman calls upon her spirit companion to attempt to heal Sureiya, but the lingering acid continues to confound all efforts to remove it. Resummoning her companion, she forcefully infuses it into Torinn, hardening his armor and skin in order to protect him against damage temporarily. Sid shakes his head and yells, "I'm all outta infusions! I'll get the goblin!" Positioning himself between the revenant and the warlock, the gnome fires another enchanted bolt from his crossbow, and this one finds its mark, right in the zombie's forehead. The lil' murderer staggers briefly, and the magical backlash from the attack enhances the weaponry and implements of both Myn and Ramuh.

The pus spitter oozes slowly along the wall before hurling a blob of pus at the shaman, who finds herself coated in the acidic gunk--the ranger attempted to intervene with a thrown blade, but the pus spitter lurched in such a way to make the projectile rebound off the wall instead while firing the bolt of pus. The lil' murdere is nearly dead, but not quite, and it misses the warlock with a wild swing before leaping backwards and hurling a dagger that strikes Myn solidly in the shoulder--though it appears to be a shallow cut that bounces off the shoulder bone. Taking advantage of its unholy speed, the smaller zombie puts some distance between itself and the group.

Bernkastel uses spirit's sacrifice, granting Sureiya a saving throw. It disappears.
Bernkastel uses call spirit companion to resummon it, and Torinn gains 4 temporary hit points.
Bernkastel uses granite armor, which misses the bone warden, but Torinn gets resist 7 to all damage until the end of her next turn.
Sid moves. Sid uses magic weapon, which hits the lil' murderer for 15 damage. Myn and Ramuh gain a +1 power bonus to attack rolls and +4 power bonus to damage rolls until the end of Sid's next turn. http://orokos.com/roll/203396
Pus spitter 3 spider-climbs along the wall, then uses spit pus, hitting Bernkastel for 13 acid damage and ongoing 5 acid damage (save ends). Sureiya misses with disruptive strike. The pus spitter takes 16 radiant damage from Torinn's sanction, which bloodies it and increases Myn's darkspiral count.
Lil' murderer 1 uses killing spree, missing Myn with its melee dagger, then shifting 2 squares and using its ranged dagger, which hits for 18 damage. The lil' murderer then moves.

Ramuh clacks his tongue at the fleeing enemy, but does not pursue or give further thought to the creature; instead, the ex-eladrin just wildly casts his lightning around.

Standard: Dancing Lightning on pus spitter.
Attack/damage: http://orokos.com/roll/203401

Ramuh throws some more lightning around. While it is quite pretty, unfortunately, it does not strike any enemies. The bone warden bowls Torinn over again with his shield, but this time the pair of scimitar strikes are both deflected with the aid of the nearby primal spirit. Thankfully, Torinn's hardened skin prevents him from suffering any further injury from the acid as well.

Ramuh misses with dancing lightning.
Bone warden hits Torinn with shield bash for 6 damage and knocks him prone. Torinn resists the damage.
The bone warden uses double attack, which nearly hits but misses because of the +1 defense bonus from being near the elemental spirit.
Torinn resists the ongoing acid damage.

Good, no escapees.

As Myn finishes off the zombie, the elemental spirit nods to the shaman, to which she responds by announcing the next target. "That's good enough. We must destroy that warden right now."

Accompanied by a sudden gust of wind, the taller spirit slashes at the target, before disappearing just as quickly.

Sureiya throws his blade twice and manages to score one hit. Meanwhile, Myn siphons a bit of the pain Sureiya felt from his wounds into life-energy to revitalize himself, and he then uses a spiteful glare charged with radiant energy to sear the retreating goblin zombie. It falters, just enough such that Myn's crown of radiance misses it with the beam it projects. Adjusting, Myn pulls out an extra bit of action in order to turn another glare towards the zombie, and it finally collapses, burning with sacred power.

Though the shaman feels the acid eating into her flesh, she commands her spirits admirably, resummoning her companion as the elemental spirit explodes into energy as it slashes at the bone warden. The column of wind that engulfs the warden briefly throws it off-balance and vulnerable, and the spirit companion infuses itself into the warlock, who blasts the now-weakened warden with an eldrtich beam. This shears off a bit of the warden's ribcage, and it looks quite damaged now--having been worn down by Torinn's radiance before. However, the wall-climbing pus spitter is still there, and lobs a massive blob of pus that completely envelops the half-orc and leaves his flesh raw and burning. Panicking, Sid fires his crossbow at the hulking skeleton but misses wildly.

Sureiya uses twin strike (ranged), missing the pus spitter once and hitting it once for 16 damage.
Myn uses life siphon to regain some hit points. I'm also adding some extra hit points to represent the THP he would've gained earlier from using his magic armor but lost.
Myn uses spiteful glamor, which hits lil' murderer 1 for 25 damage (up from 20).
Myn sustains crown of stars but misses with the attack.
Myn spends an action point! Myn uses spiteful glamor and hits for 24 damage (up from 19), which destroys the lil' murderer. This increases Myn's darkspiral count.
Bernkastel takes ongoing 5 acid damage.
Bernkastel uses spirit of athas's attack, using heroic effort to make it hit the bone warden. It deals 13 damage and the bone warden takes a -2 penalty to attack rolls and all defenses until the end of its next turn.
Bernkastel uses call spirit, and Myn gains 4 temporary hit points.
Bernkastel spends an action point! Bernkastel uses spirit infusion, which allows Myn to use eldritch blast, which hits for 36 damage. http://orokos.com/roll/203595

As the ranger gets afflicted again with acid and pain, his magic tattoo reacts and empowers him to counterattack, except he goes after the warden.
Backlash tatto RBA against warden (miss) http://orokos.com/roll/203620

Ramuh primes himself, focusing the storm within to unleash his fury with thunderous applause. That Warden shall block no more! The furious lightning assault also strikes at the pus spitter some more.

Ramuh uses his thunderous power to soar through the room, quickly gliding towards a defensive position near Sureiya. The old revenant holds his staff at the ready to defend the staggering half-orc.

Standard action: Lightning strike on Bone Warden
Attack/damage: http://orokos.com/roll/203658
(CRIT: 26 lightning damage. I forgot a +2 to damage from my gauntlets of blood.)
Crit bonus damage: http://orokos.com/roll/203659 (9)
Effect: 5 damage to the pus spitter

Crit effect: Push bone warden 1 square to the east, Ramuh flies to U-14.
Move: Ramuh moves to U-20.

Immediate interrupt on being attacked: dragon scales for +4 to all defences, if that'd help me resist an/the attacks.

As the revenant calls down lightning, this time there is a crack of thunder that shakes the walls of the chamber as an enormous burst of electricity descends upon the bone warden and scorches its skeletal frame--Torinn shields himself to avoid being caught in the massive blast. Stray bolts arc all around the room, but miraculously none strike Ramuh's new allies, though one does strike the pus spitter and blast off another portion of the blob's flesh. The bone warden staggers backwards from the force of the lightning strike, and a great wind whips up around Ramuh and carries him to the southern end of he room.

Clearly in a daze, the hulking skeleton moves back to confront its marked target once more, first striking with his shield, though this time Torinn blocks with his own shield and refuses to budge. It then hacks twice with its sword, but both blows are deftly parried by the paladin. With a sudden burst of energy, it strikes two more times, but Torinn is not overwhelmed and manages to avoid these slashes as well.

All things considered, Torinn's not in too bad of shape.

Ramuh CRITS the bone warden with lightning strike for 35 lightning damage. The pus spitter takes 5 lightning damage.
Ramuh pushes the bone warden 1 square and flies.
The bone warden moves 1 square. The bone warden misses Torinn with shield bash.
The bone warden uses double attack, but both scimitar attacks miss, once only because of the defensive bonus from second wind. It spends an action point! It uses double attack again and misses twice again.

Apparently not spiteful enough to menace the warden, Myn shoots shiny stuff at it instead.

Torinn hops back on his mount, then charges his blade with divine energy before slashing a horizontal cut that knocks aside the warden's shield. The holy energy discharges from his blade as he does so, and sears the skeletal giant directly through its ribcage. Even as this happens, Sureiya lunges back into the fray and hacks at its exposed backbones, cutting big chunks out of its legs and spine. Sureiya shrugs off the acid that continues to eat away at him temporarily, though it still clings to his hide armor.

Myn casts a spiteful glare in the warden's direction, and upon seeing no reaction, blasts it with a radiant beam that originates from the crown that remains shimmering atop his head. The warden staggers, and braces itself with its scimitar, but holds itself together--though probably not for long.

Torinn mounts Rutger and uses valiant strike, which hits for 17 radiant damage.
Sureiya takes ongoing 5 acid damage. Sureiya moves and uses twin strike, hitting twice for a total of 26 damage. It takes a -2 penalty to attack rolls against Sureiya.
Myn misses with spiteful glamour. He sustains crown of stars and hits for 26 radiant damage.

The bone warden has defender aura 1. If you are in the warden's defender aura you take a -2 penalty to attack creatures that are not the bone warden.

"Will you stop moving, already!" exclaims the shaman, frustrated at the undying pile of bones.

Move action: Walk to S-20, provoking an OA from the warden. SC to U-21, elevation 2 and adjacent to the spitter.
Standard action: Emerald Lure. SC disappears. http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4553032/
Minor action: SC to U-22, elevation 3.

The shaman, annoyed that the warden hasn't fallen yet, strides right past it, daring it to attack her. The skeleton doesn't take the bait, however, and the spirit companion drifts upwards briefly before unleashing a powerful, psychic lure, draining the last of the energy keeping the bone warden moving. As it collapses into a heap of bones and weaponry, dark whispers echo from its fallen form and fill Myn with more eldritch power.

The pus spitter, however, is unaffected by the lure. Sid quickly hops into the unmoving stack of bones and draws his crossbow, which is now ablaze with fiery energy. "Burn!" he calls out, his bolt flying true and sticking firmly into the undead mound. As his crossbow recoils, flames leap from it and dance briefly around Torinn, Sureiya, and the big cat before sticking to their weapons and claws, granting some additional firepower. Sid then brandishes an alchemical smelling salt, and throws it over to Sureiya--the odor is pungent, but the acid sticking to his armor solidifies on contact with the vapor and falls off as a fine powder.

The pus spitter hurls a blob of acidic pus in Sureiya's general direction, but its utter lack of accuracy seems to indicate that the fight has gone out of it. It skitters across the wall away from the spirit companion.

Bernakstel moves and moves her spirit. The warden does not take an OA.
Bernkastel's emerald lure misses the pus spitter but hits the bone warden for 15 psychic damage, destroying it.
Bernkastel uses call spirit companion.
Sid moves. Sid uses burning weapons, which hits the pus spitter for 11 damage. Sureiya, Rutger, and Torinn gain the effect of burning weapons, which is 4 extra fire damage on fire and weapon attacks.
Sid uses swift mender to grant Sureiya a saving throw, which succeeds. http://orokos.com/roll/203967

Ramuh sends more lightning around at the pus spitter.

http://orokos.com/roll/204037

His nemesis finally felled, Torinn brings Rutger around and charges the final foe. Hitting a creature at such a height is trivial for him.

charge to U/V-18/19 (http://orokos.com/roll/204095) and hit pus spitter for 20/25 damage (http://orokos.com/roll/204096 28, 20)

Though Ramuh's lightning just barely avoids hitting the pus spitter, Torinn finishes it by having his tiger lunge straight up the wall and hacking it to bits with his fiery, radiant blade. It would appear all the enemies are no longer moving.

Ramuh misses the pus spitter with lightning strike.
Torinn and Rutger charge and climb up the wall briefly and strike down the pus spitter with a melee basic attack for 16 radiant damage (up from 11) and 4 fire damage, slaying it.

With the immediate threat over, Ramuh turns to the group of adventurers.

"My sincerest gratitude for your timely intervention," the revenant says. "I had not expected to encounter allies in this wretched hellhole."

"And we didn't expect to find someone else willing to talk here." "Not after fighting that damn Chimera, at least."

Somewhat wounded, Sureiya sits down, checks out for remainders of the acidic substance on his clothes and asks the obvious question. "So, what bring you here? This place isn't very fun to traverse alone."

Ramuh laughs, though the laugh is hollow.

"I did not venture here alone, adventurer. I counted numerous allies here." He gestures around. "As you can see, I have become separated from my entourage. At this time, however, I believe they may have fallen prey to these abominations as have I. I worry for their well-being."

Ramuh rubs his beard. "Enough about me. This is hardly a locale fit for wanton adventure; what brings your fellowship to the bowels of the underdark, adventurer?"

"It's a long story. One that you might not be very interested to listen, but to put it simply, we've come here to pay a visit to the place where the leyline connection is the strongest, or something like that" the ranger tries to explain.

"Our host, a lich, is well aware of our visit and it's waiting for us right now."

"The leyline... is it?" Ramuh rubs his beard in contemplation, then chuckles.

"Ah, I believe I had caught wind of something in that direction; Baldur's Gate employed a fellowship of adventurers to assist in journeying to the leylines. Your exploits are known, though I had not known you numbered but four. An auspicious number."

Ramuh nods slowly. "Yes, yes, I can count you among my allies then. I am Ramuh, agent of Luruar. My party and I were tasked with exploring these caverns for other routes from which to enter the Shadowfell."

Planting the Battle Standard of Healing, and using Healing Spirit on Sureiya. He heals for surge+2+3 (Sid's armor set) and everyone in the standard's area heals for 3.

2d6+2 healing for Torinn. http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4554578/

Torinn dismounts from his loyal tiger and walks up to the figure identifying themselves as Ramuh, sword not yet sheathed. He scrutinizes the fellow, the dragonborn bearing an odd smile, before sheathing his weapon and taking the revenant's hand in both of his claws. With a firm handshake and a slight chuckle, he replies, "And my sincerest gratitude for your timely intervention on my own behalf, Ramuh." Releasing the revenant from his greeting, Torinn speaks again to introduce himself. "I am Torinn Tormine, and I would see you well."

"I'm called Bernkastel, a shaman."

To Sureiya: "Help me look around. Also, could I try your spyglass, too?"

Speak with Spirits, and then Perception check with the spyglass bonus. (24) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4555180/

Aiding Sureiya with Perception. (16, success) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4555185/

"Name's Sureiya. I hope your friends are not in peril" the ranger says, to finish his introduction. Then, upon the shaman request, he shares his spyglass with her and helps with the exploration.
Perception (aid another) 27 http://orokos.com/roll/204354

The gnome nods in a satisfactory manner at the battlefield, then turns to face the revenant. "Sid Silversprocket of the Arcanimus, at your service! It would seem that our goals are aligned, yes?"

As "Bernkastel" and the ranger turn to exploring the room, they find that it was very clearly an arcane laboratory at some point. Gathering up the various vials and compounds that are not spilled or otherwise compromised throughout the room totals to 329 gp worth of arcana reagents. Much of the equipment is broken, though the brilliant lamp-like device in the north-center of the room seems to remain functional. In the northwest the wall is broken through, revealing a pile of rubble beyond which leads upward to a hole that's quite small (small enough for a small creature to need to squeeze to pass through). A curving stairway on the east side of the room leads downwards for at least 15 feet, at which point the light cuts off your view.

Sid looks interested in the reagents, and looks to the paladin, and makes an offer: "Hey, you're having some issues staying on your friend there! If you want, I could try to whip up something to help with that, if you think we have the time. I could take about a half-hour and fix something new!"

>>75261
"I would like that, but only if everyone else is fine with waiting."

Spend healing surge to heal up to full

Ramuh nods. "Torinn Tormine, Bernkastel, Sureiya and Sid. I shall remember those names."

As the party's discussing their decision to stay or move, Ramuh decides not to interfere just yet; he's not so fond of travelling alone, but less fond of a faux pas!

Myn finally speaks up.

"I am Myn Nthelsyr. Although my companions appear to be of a trusting nature, I will reserve judgment until your story is collaborated. The possibility of a spy persists."

>>75261
>>75262
"Half-hour? What about Ms. Elayne?"

Sid has already begun preparing the components and Rutger's saddle for what would appear to be a lengthy enchanting process, and waves dismissively at the shaman's concerns, saying, "It could take hours to traverse these tunnels and reach our destination. The lich would expect us to break now and then, if he's keeping his word--and if he's not, we're walking directly into a trap anyway, and I'm in no hurry in that case!"

Having placed the saddle and some reagents on a magic circle conveniently located on one of the laboratory tables, Sid holds his hands over it and mutter something briefly, and it begins to glow. He then reaches for what appears to be some arcane tools and begins to work. Though he will stop if there are strong objections to the matter.

>>75266
"If you're sure. I hope you're right."

Lunch break, I guess. The shaman takes out the picnic basket for anyone interested, and begins preparing more healing for the party.

Another Healing Spirit for Sureiya, healing Torinn with the extra. After Sid triggers Battle Standard of Healing two more times, everyone but Torinn should be at max HP, and since he would still be at 70/76, I don't think he needs to spend a surge. Work shown in skypecats, but pasting here with the error corrections.

>>75257
Healing Spirit heals everyone for 3, Sureiya for 18+3+2 more, and Torinn for 11 more. Myn 62, Ramuh 62, Bern 52, Torinn 52, Sureiya 42, Sid 62.

Then a Healing Spirit on Sureiya heals everyone for 3, Sureiya for 18+3+2 more, and Torinn for 9 more. So we're at Myn 65, Ramuh 62, Bern 55, Torinn 64, Sureiya 66, Sid 65.

After that, Sid's infusion recharges spend 2 surges, healing everyone for 6. Everyone is capped except Torinn, who remains at 70/76.

I don't know who wants to donate these 2 surges, but here are the surges remaining before people offer 2.
Myn: 4
Ramuh: 3
Bern: 5
Torinn: 5
Sureiya: 4
Sid: 5

Rutger heals for 12 total, which is more than enough too.

"I'm worried about Elayne too, but we don't know if she's really still alive" says Sureiya, genuinely concerned.
"Let's take a rest here and then haste our way once Sid is over."

Saying this, the ranger ponders about Myn's words. "You better not be a spy" he says to Ramuh. "Generally I don't like slashing sentient creatures, but I could make an exception" the ranger adds, but he doesn't sound either serious or menacing. Then he grabs whatever the shaman prepared and gives it a good bite.

"If it's a spy you fear, you needn't worry," the eladrin responds. "I shall have a short rest, and then resume my search for my allies." Ramuh considers for a moment. These people are short-lived, and their plans are built with weeks, at best years in mind: likely, they could not grasp what it would be like to think and plan in centuries.

So thinking, the eladrin decides not to take offence at the ranger's words.

"I'm not particularly worried" explains Sureiya, "but we recently had a bad experience after trusting too early a guy that joined us."

Still eating, the ranger ponders a little and then adds "You're strong, I'd prefer you to stay."

The party rests while Sid continues the ritual, pausing briefly to catch a breather himself and restore his infusions. At the end of the creation process, there is a startling spark and the saddle glows with an even more powerful magic.

"Whew... innovation is tiring, but I'll be fine to face the lich!" Sid remarks, handing the saddle to Torinn. "I can't say anything cliche, like, 'my finest work,' but you can bet your whiskers it's a darned good saddle!" Torinn notices that Sid has changed the very design of the saddle--it now includes a leather-bound harness that can be used to secure him onto his mount. Which is strange, as you didn't notice the gnome doing any leatherworking.

You take a few short rests as Bernkastel outlined. The custom items document has been updated, Torinn now has a level 3 secured saddle.
>>6926

>>75267
The spirit companion taps Torinn's shoulder to get his attention, and points him to the basket. The shaman doesn't seem to pay it any mind.

Offering one surge for artificer infusion recharge.

Sid infuses one of his healing canisters with his own energy, and graciously takes the shaman's offer for the other.

Torinn affixes the new saddle to his mount. He's about to test it out before the spirit points out the food assortment left behind. He awkwardly attempts to pat it on the head in thanks, before grabbing a sandwich and swiftly scarfing it down. It's then that he tests the saddle, and finds it to be to his liking.

Myn eats lightly, wondering how the encounter with the disgusting pus creatures managed to whet any appetites.

"Well then, I had best be going," the eladrin finally says. "I wish you good tidings in your task. May we meet again in Baldur's Gate."

So saying, the eladrin continues his path onward, stalwart in his pursuit of his mission.

>>75270
"You should come with us. I don't think you're a spy, and if you plan on searching, I can't recommend traveling alone in the underdark. We won't make you fight the lich, though he is likely to know your comrades' whereabouts."

Ramuh pauses and considers.

"Yes, there is wisdom in your words. Had you not intervened timely, I cannot say that I would have been equal to the challenge just now. I shall accept that invitation." Ramuh stops moving and waits for the rest of the group to go.

>>75279
"Should the lich appear, however, I ask that you avoid destroying him, no matter what."

The sorcerer frowns.

"Avoid destroying it? I do not understand."

"Our objective is to subdue the lich. We need him intact."

The shaman seems hesitant to elaborate, likely in fear of the skeleton in question overhearing.

The eladrin catches on. "I see. Very well, I shall not destroy the lich."

"Let's keep going then" the ranger says.

"Enough dallying about, yes. We should get moving."

Sid nods, and pulls out his leylinb-tracking device, and indicates that the party should continue heading downward. Torinn and Rutger take the lead, ushering the party through the winding stairwell on the eastern side of the laboratory.

Eventually, the stairs open into a small, largely unremarkable room. The only particularly distinguishing feature of this room is that the tower walls break open into a larger, approximately 20-foot circular tunnel that slops gradually downwards. There is also another doorway that appears to be almost completely blocked by a cave-in of rubble. "We're getting quite close now..." Sid comments, urging you forward through the tunnel.

The party progresses through the tunnel for what seems like nearly an hour until it opens into what appears to be a much larger chamber.

The chamber is vast--incredibly so. From the middle of the chamber a low hum emits, but it is otherwise eerily silent. The cavern roof is possibly two hundred feet above you and lined with stalactites at irregular intervals. From the tunnel which you stand is a narrow stone land-bridge that connects to a raised, vaguely-circular stone platform that encircles a glowing, orange, crystalline surface, atop which sits a wicked-looking throne stitched-together from bone and dirt. On the throne, Torinn can make out the barest glimpse of a skeletal figure.

Surrounding the throne are a collection of granite gaols that appear very similar to the ones you saw before. Four medium-sized gaols are arranged in ranks behind the throne, while two larger ones are arrayed in front. From the edge of the stone platform (and below the land-bridge you stand on) is what appears to be a rough, volcanic surface at the base of what seems to be about a 30-foot drop. It's rather steep, and you'd guess it'd be difficult to climb up and down the edges of the stone platform. On the far side of the room, on the volcanic floor beneath and tucked in the northeast corner, is a gigantic pile of rubble that is strangely-colored.

The entire cavern is well-illuminated by the glow of the crystalline surface in the room's center. The skeletal figure on the throne remains silent, but you are quite certain that it has taken notice of Torinn's approach. From behind Torinn, Sid can't quite see into the room, but he exclaims, "I think we're almost right on top of it!"

Ramuh boldly steps forward. "This is your quarry then, adventurers?"

The eladrin sizes up the heap of stone.

Diceroller be trollin'.
Dungeoneering to see if there's anything particular Ramuh realises about the room's particular layout.
http://orokos.com/roll/205433

Ramuh enters the chamber behind Torinn and sizes up the room quite thoroughly.

Dungeoneering: (Ramuh) The crystalline surface in the center is certainly an elemental leyline. Perhaps more importantly, you suspect that the bridge you stand on, as well as the surface of the massive stone platform is unsafe to stand on the further you are from the leyline--heavy tremors could shake the stone loose and cause it to drop to the volcanic ground below. It seems sturdy enough that you'd have some time between the stone being knocked loose and it actually falling, should such tremors occur. However, these tremors would be especially hazardous for anyone who was unfortunate enough to be on the obsidian surface below as a result.

>>75289
"Indeed he is," murmurs Torinn, moving up further. "We have come, Gallard. Let Miss Elayne go."

The ranger moves ahead and looks around.
"So here we are."
Perception (14) http://orokos.com/roll/205491

The skeletal figure on the throne appears to be saying something in response to Torinn's response, but it's extremely difficult to make out at this distance. Its voice is apparently quite raspy and quiet, despite being powered by magic. Even Sureiya's "superior" perception is unable to make out what it's saying (and his cursory examination of the area doesn't reveal much that stands out, at least not from this vantage).

"Best be careful," Ramuh warns quietly. "I would not trust our footing should tremors occur, and that," he nods to the centre, "would be your leyline. Earth, was it?"

Ramuh points at the gaols. "I worry for... those. What are they?"

Still walking ahead, the ranger uses one of his magical whetstones on his flying sword, then he stops about 40 feet away from the lich.
"Your challenge wasn't good enough to stop us, Lich. Did you keep your promise?"

Sureiya quickly draws close enough to the lich to understand its rasping speech, "...done well... yet there is still much to discuss..."

The lich holds in one hand a staff made of twisting bone, set with an orange crystal of some sort on the top, and with his free hand he gestures to the glowing pile of stone in the northeast section of the room--and from Sureiya's current vantage point, he believes he can make out another granite gaol among the rubble there. "Do you know what lies down that path...? This remote section of the Underdark holds many secrets..."

Ramuh draws closer to Sureiya in order to follow the conversation as well.

"Let me guess. Is our friend there?" says the ranger, not very willing to have a long chat with the undead.

The lich laughs--a raspy, echoing laugh. "Yes, overdweller... but not merely your friend. Beyond that barrier is a portal... to the Shadowfell. I tell you this... so you understand what is at stake here, for me as well. Now that you know of the portal, I cannot permit you to return to your allies..."

Torinn moves up near the others, gesturing for everyone to stay close to him.

"You're terrible at keeping secrets, Gallard. While you're feeling generous, or in the throes of dementia, why not tell us all about your master's weaknesses?"

Myn maintains a proximial position to the meatshields.

As the group gathers before Gallard (Sid included), the shaman makes a more thorough search of the area. Somewhere, up high, near the roof of the cavern, she spots what appears to be a goblin head poking out of a small tunnel far up along the wall. It looks around briefly, first at the pile of rubble in the northeast, and then at the party, the sight of which convinces it to duck back into the tunnel.

The earth-lich seems somewhat amused by Torinn's statement, and replies, "I am not blind, overdweller. I know what my master is--what he has become. My duty is binding, however, and his might is considerable. It would take incredible power to challenge his rule... now do you see why you are tested...?" As the lich says this, he raises his staff high in the air.

A corona extends from Torinn's weapon as he swipes at the air. Divine power discharges from his sword, and infuses himself and his allies.

Wait for everyone to move adjacent, then
Wrath of the Gods : everybody has +5 power bonus to damage rolls

Leyline 26, Lich 33 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4562407/

"Perfect timing, Mr. Tormine."

Sid looks at the leyline and strokes his beard thoughtfully, even as Torinn's holy power augments the group's fighting prowess, and the gnome slowly readies his crossbow. "Well... do you see now...?" Gallard asks, clearly expecting some sort of response.

Sid (Arcana): 21 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4562587/

Myn and Bernkastel: You both can recognize instantly that the lich is much more in tune with the leyline than the previous fiends you've faced--in other words, the lich can access not a mere single attack from the leyline, but multiple powers. The exact nature of these attacks eludes your best guesses, however. An earthen leyline likely has several earth-based attacks though, so perhaps causing ripples in the earth or long-reaching tremors could be expected.
On the lich, you know much about liches in general. While the particular powers of a lich often vary depending on what sort of caster they were in life, they remain by nature skilled in necrotic and death magic. Poison and diseases are utterly ineffective against a lich, and they possess heavy resistance to necrotic damage. Unlike most undead, they do not possess a vulnerability to radiant damage. The general nature of a lich is a spellcaster who has, through forbidden necromantic rituals, gained a form of eternal life in undeath by binding their soul to an enchanted object referred to as a phylactery. Given a few days, a lich whose body has been destroyed will regenerate a new body near their phylactery, unless the phylactery has been destroyed. A potent mage, Gallard in particular no doubt has access to a variety of battlefield-altering spells (level 11 elite controller, the leyline is a level 11 hazard).
The mind of a lich is a curious thing--often though as irrecoverably insane and irredeemably evil, some liches retain a form of their past self in their new form. Though whatever standards they held in life are twisted and perhaps even incomprehensible to mortal beings, some liches nevertheless restrain themselves from utterly wanton acts of evil. There are tales of greater liches called archliches which retain more of their past self and are not necessarily evil, though Gallard does not appear to be an archlich.

Bernkastel: Gallard appears to be under some sort of unusual spell effect, as he does not radiate the powerful necrotic energies you would normally associate with a lich. He certain possesses some necrotic power, but not the life-draining effects you would expect from a lich. Perhaps he gave up this power in exchange for some great boon that you'd need to see in action to guess the effects of.
In any event, his paralyzing touch will chill an enemy to its core and freeze it in place, to be moved at the earth's whim (a melee basic attack [melee 1, one creature, vs. AC] that deals normal damage and immobilizes until the end of the lich's next turn). Charging his staff with earth elemental energy, Gallard can also unleash a blast of earth on a target he strikes with his staff, sending shards flying to strike nearby foes (rock crusher is a melee 1 vs. AC attack that hits one creature with some weak damage, but has a secondary burst 1 effect centered on the target as an effect, which attacks reflex for moderate damage and minor damage on a miss). If left unattended, he can also hurl bolts of necrotic energy at distant foes (a ranged basic attack, nether bolt is vs. Fortitude and deals necrotic damage and ongoing 5 necrotic damage (save ends) to one creature within 20 squares).
The earth shifts near Gallard constantly, making positioning well a chore (whenever a creature ends its turn in Gallard's shifting earth, an aura 1, Gallard can slide the target 2 squares to another square in the aura). Stone roots steady the lich's feet and prevent it from being tossed around from even the heaviest blows (stone roots prevent the lich from being pushed, pulled, or slid by any attack or effect, and it cannot fall prone). His mastery of the leyline is quite advanced, as previously mentioned, allowing him to access a variety of leyline-based attacks (on an initiative of 10 + Gallard's initiative, he can use a free action to have the leyline use one of its attacks against targets of Gallard's choosing. If Gallard cannot use a free action to make this attack, the effect preventing him from doing so ends instead of him making the attack as long as it is a dominating or stunning effect). Rather than directly attacking himself, Gallard is a strong leader and provides significant advantages to his allies in combat, and they in turn empower him (Gallard's bolstering presence grants ghoulish gaolers that he has line of effect to a +2 bonus to attack rolls. In addition, he gains resist 2 to all damage for each pus spitter that has 1 or more hit points and has line of effect to him). Finally, when some uncertain condition is met, he can summon stone shackles from the earth to grasp a foe until it manages to struggle free (you're not sure what condition needs to be met in order for Gallard to use stone shackles, but it's not at-will, though it is a reliable encounter power, and as a minor action 1/round Gallard can attempt to restrain a target within 10 squares with a ranged attack vs. Reflex, restrained until escape, which is DC 19).

Did he want a reply? "There should not be a need to convince you that we can face the Fell King--if we lose, then we lose."

"I think he's just bored and looking for thrills."

"Whatever his purpose may be, if there is an entrance to the Shadowfell here, I will have completed my mission with my return," Ramuh says, readying his staff. "If you would oppose my return, Lich, then I shall fight you with all that I have. One does not simply deny Ramuh."

"All I see now is another minion of the Fell King awaiting for its defeat."

The lich regards the adventurers with something resembling a sneer. "Very well, then!" slamming his staff into the ground, sending the stone bridge behind you crashing to the ground below, where it shatters heavily. In addition, the two larger gaols begin to shake and threaten to burst. "Let us see if your pride matches your might... for no form of attack can penetrate the Earthen Ward!"

As he speaks, his throne dissolves into dust, which swirls around the lich's form, expanding and forming hulking stones which swirl in a constant barrier around Gallard's form. The stones then begin to glow with earth-elemental energy, and you suggest that there is much more to this shield than a mere physical barrier. The lich lets loose a mocking laugh as he is enveloped by the earthen shield, which continues to swirl around his form.

Information on the earthen ward is arcana.

"Your move, champions..." the lich says, drawing his staff back as his voice trails off. The half-orc is happy to oblige.

Ranged twin strike! (two misses, apparently) http://orokos.com/roll/205878

Sureiya moves cautiously and fixes his gaze upon one of the gaols before hurling his blade at it twice, but unfortunately both times it bounces off the gaol's thick, rocky exterior without causing it much damage of note.

Gallard grips his staff firmly with both hands in front of him, and a beam of orange energy shoots down from the ceiling and into the leyline through the staff, and the entire leyline glows briefly before sending out enormous ripples through the stone that throw the entire party briefly off-balance. The outmost portions of the stone platform begin to crack and split apart, and it's only a matter of time before they collapse completely... in addition, there is a massive surge of energy in the center of the platform, where the lich is, and it seems to be building towards a crescendo. You probably don't want to be very close when it begins to surge...

The leyline is charging its epicenter attack. The attack deals massive damage, but the damage is reduced for every square between you and the lich.

The other large gaol suddenly bursts open, revealing one of the hulking undead monstrosities you fought earlier.

Sureiya moves and sets his quarry, but his ranged twin strike misses the gaol twice.
Gallard uses mastery of the leyline, and the leyline uses its tremors attack. Everyone except Bernkastel is hit for 10 damage, Bernkastel is missed for 5 damage. The platform is weakened and will break in one round, and the leyline gains 1 charge of Earthen Rage.
Ghoulish gaoler 1 bursts from its gaol, with nobody in range.

Finally recalling his expensive purchase, Myn uses the small figurine to bring forth a massive, entirely undisgusting insect, mounting it to fly to a comfortable position of complete safety. From this he exerts a rare effort to rain down psychic pain on the only vulnerable enemy below.

Free action: Spend healing surge to give Ebony Fly 16 THP.
Minor action: Curse Gaoler 1.
Minor action: Cast Fey Bargain.
Free action: Fly fly to Y-18, Elevation 5.

As Myn conjures a horrible, giant black fly creature from the figurine he carries, and mounts it while granting it a portion of his own strength. He then quickly mutters both a curse and a bargain to one of his usual fey patrons, who gladly helps to guide his next attack--at a small price. Myn decides to dig deep into his inner reserves to take that attack now, even as he flies away on his big fly. A focused blast of psychic energy leaves the ghoulish gaoler staggering.

Sid pipes up, calling out, "There's little choice but to wait that shield out--about thirty seconds! Be ready to hit the weak point hard then, when it emerges--we won't have much time before bad things happen!" The lich focuses an ire-filled gaze upon the gnome as he calls this out, and the artificer's resolve wilts a bit.

Myn summons forth his ebony fly and spends a healing surge to grant it 16 hit points.
Myn curses the nearby gaoler then uses fey bargain, failing his next save but gaining a +2 bonus to his next attack roll.
Myn spends an action point! Myn's shared agony hits the ghoulish gaoler 1 for 37 psychic damage.

Torinn rides his big cat close to the gaoler, now secured in his new magic saddle. His blade aglow with a brilliant radiance, he slices into the abomination's hulking form, sending it reeling. Sid barely wastes any time before hopping next to the shaman and the sorcerer, firing a glowing blue bolt from his hand crossbow, which strikes the gaoler between the eyes. As a black substance begins to cover the undead monstrosity's face, the magical power of Sid's crossbow discharges and infuses the implements and weaponry of both Ramuh and Bernkastel, augmenting them slightly, though his power pales in comparison to Bahamut's blessing.

Ramuh flails his arms around and accidentally causes a zone of swirling winds to appear. The swirling winds mock Ramuh by then moving over Torinn.

Standard: Howling Hurricane at R-11.
Miss roll: http://orokos.com/roll/206192
Zone 1 that slides creatures that start turn in the zone 2 squares. Bern can decide how to use this slide, otherwise I'd just wait until I can ask Bern.

Move action: move zone to T-11.

As Ramuh gestures, there is a resounding crack of thunder that darkens the room briefly before a miniature hurricane of considerable strength forms on the battlefield near where Torinn and the gaoler are engaged in melee combat. Though the gaoler manages to weather the initial blast without a scratch, it's not going to escape the howling winds the hurricane has conjured up so easily.

Before the warlock can put too much distance between himself and the lich, Gallard turns his attention to the half-elf's disgusting mount, blasting it with a bolt of necrotic energy. Though the shield Myn provided it absorbs nearly all of the blast, the lingering effects of a necrotic bolt still threaten to drain more of the fly's vitality as the battle progresses. Meanwhile, the remaining gaoler bursts free from its gaol, holding its giant cleaver at the ready and snarling.

The ground beneath you continues to pulsate with energy, and Gallard says, "Things are just getting started, overdwellers... hehehe..."

Ramuh uses howling hurricane but misses the ghoulish gaoler. The zone is still conjured, and Ramuh moves it. Ramuh can slide any creature that begins its turn within the zone 2 squares, the zone lasts until the end of Ramuh's next turn, or Ramuh can sustain the zone as a minor action.

Notes
As long as the Earthen Ward persists, Gallard is immune to all damage, conditions, and effects.
Gallard's stone roots render him immune to forced movement via a push, pull, or slide, and he cannot fall prone. However, they also render him [red]immobile[/b]. He can end or resume this effect as a minor action.
If you end your turn in the lich's shifting earth aura (marked by orange aura on the map), the lich can slide you 2 squares to another square in the aura.
When a gaol bursts, it attacks creatures in a close burst 1 for a moderate amount of damage. This doesn't affect the creature inside the gaol, but it does count as that creature's turn.
Damage dealt to a gaol is transferred to the creature inside. If the creature inside is bloodied, the gaol crumbles, freeing the creature within (this doesn't count as the gaol bursting). Gaols share the defenses of the creature within.
The red areas represent where the platform will break apart. Everything on the outer side of the red areas as well as the red areas themselves will collapse in one round's time.
After tremors, the leyline uses epicenter on its next turn. The attack deals massive damage, but the damage is reduced for every square between you and the lich.
Ramuh's howling hurricane zone slides any creature that begins its turn within 2 squares.

The shaman relays lich knowledge, pausing briefly when Myn conjures a fly. What is that horrible thing? Is this how he spent his money?

"Mr. N, a call when your magic is ready again."

Move action: run to Z-15.
Minor action: SC next to Myn/Fly, giving 4 THP to the fly.
Standard action: Spirit Infusion for Myn.

After dinging the enemy with a mediocre bolt of eldritch energy, Myn calls down from his perch to signal for the secondary attack, which performs similarly well. He briefly wonders if his performance is suffering due to his grief towards the fly's condition.

The shaman runs into position, then quickly calls her spirit for a quick bit of extra resilience for Myn's summoned fly, then infuses it directly into the warlock. Guiding the warlock's finger, the beam of eldritch energy pierces the gaoler rather effectively. With a burst of energy, she uses more spiritual energy to guide another beam, and this one tears off a good portion of the abomination's shoulder. It's reeling, but still standing, murder in its eyes.

Bernkastel runs. Bernkastel uses call spirit companion, granting Myn's ebony fly 4 temporary hit points. Bernkastel uses spirit infusion, and Myn's eldritch blast hits for 29 damage.
Bernkastel spends an action point! Bernkastel's direct the strike allows Myn to use eldritch blast again, which hits for 25 damage.

The half-orc ranger moves swiftly into position next to the undamaged gaoler and lays into it with both blades, one rebounding off the abomination's hide, but another slicing a vicious wound that leaves it open to further attack--which Sureiya immediately takes advantage of, deepening the wound and provoking an anguished roar from the creature.

Suddenly, the energy in Gallard's staff discharges, and the ground seems to upend itself--there are massive ripples in the area immediately surrounding the lich, but as it spreads it diminishes in strength somewhat, with the ground lashing upwards in huge to medium-sized chunks and throwing the adventurers briefly off-balance. Sureiya in particular fails to withstand a massive pillar of rock that slams him in the gut, but Torinn and Rutger are both much better equipped to remain firmly planted on the ground. The remaining three ground-bound adventurers feel slightly thrown off-balance, but were too far from the epicenter to be truly harmed. The warlock and his fly mount manage to avoid the upheaval entirely. As the shockwaves subside, large sections of the platform you stand on collapse to the ground below.

The swirling winds that somewhat resemble a micro-sized hurricane cloud when viewed from above throw the gaoler to the east, and Rutger swipes as it as it flies by, but misjudges the timing slightly which spares the undead its fate. The undead monstrosity angrily grabs the ground beneath its feet and rips it apart, throwing an avalanche of what used to be ground at Torinn, striking him directly--luckily, the paladin absorbs the brunt of the blow and spares his mount. Still, Rutger finds himself thrown back onto the very edge of the arena, scrabbling with his claws to maintain a hold, now perilously on the edge.

Sureiya moves. Sureiya uses lashing leaves, missing once and hitting once for 20 damage. The gaoler 2 takes 2 extra damage from attacks until the end of Sureiya's next turn.
Sureiya uses off-hand strike and hits the gaoler 2 for 32 damage.
Mastery of the leyline triggers and the leyline uses epicenter. Torinn, Rutger, and Ramuh are missed, Bernkastel and Sid are hit, Sureiya is crit. Sureiya takes 32 damage from the critical hit, Torinn and Rutger take 8 damage (Rutger reduces to 0), and Bernkastel, Ramuh, and Sid take 0 damage. Myn and his fly are flying so they are unaffected.
Medium gaols 1 and 2 are preparing to burst.
The ghoulish gaoler 1 begins its turn and is slid 2 squares by howling hurricane. Rutger's raking claw misses. It uses landslide, which misses Rutger but hits Torinn for 27 damage (Rutger takes 13 damage, which is reduced to 3) and pushes him 3 squares. The gaoler then moves.

Enjoying an impressive bounty of vitality from the ranger's mishap, Myn maintains his record of highly-average magic blasts before retreating to a position of safety. Despite his efforts, the fly doesn't seem to be recovering, however.

The fly seems slightly withered by the ongoing effects of the necrotic bolt that struck it, but Myn regains a bit of his own lost vitality by drawing strength from the half-orc's pain. Taking a moment to curse the relatively healthy gaoler, the warlock flies his fly close before unleashing an eldritch beam which neatly slices the heavily-wounded gaoler through the gut, spilling its insides all over the platform as its body breaks apart. As Myn retreats towards the entrance to the room, Torinn feels the contact with the toxic sludge poison him, and the sticky substance binds his mount's legs. The gaoler is clearly destroyed, but the sludge will make maneuvering difficult.

"I will give you one chance, cowardly fly-rider..." the lich calls loudly, magically amplifying its voice. "Cease your efforts to escape or I will grind your skin from your bones!"

The ebony fly takes ongoing 5 necrotic damage.
Myn uses life siphon, gaining a +2 power bonus to his next attack roll and regaining 5 hit points.
Myn curses gaoler 2, then flies close and uses eldritch blast, which hits gaoler 1 for 27 damage, destroying it. Its sludge-filled trait activates, creating a sludge zone in a close burst 1. The zone of sludge is difficult terrain. If you enter or begin your turn within the zone, you take 5 poison damage and are slowed until you leave the zone.
Myn flies away on his fly mount. The fly fails its saving throw.
Torinn and Rutger begin their turns in the zone and take 5 poison damage and are slowed until they leave the zone (Rutger reduces the damage to 0).

Torinn's big cat manages to shake off enough of the sludge to bound over most of it in two great hops. Meanwhile, Sid tosses one of this canisters towards Sureiya, which looses a vapor that reinvigorates the ailing half-orc. Another enchanted bolt flies from his crossbow and strikes the gaoler, washing Ramuh with an accuracy-boosting backlash. The gnome then moves towards the center of the room.

The lich replies to Torinn, "You come to meddle with my leyline and accuse me of cowardice for remaining to guard it...?" Shaking his skull, the skeleton elaborates, "The ward is proof of my power! If you are truly stronger, you will overcome it!"

Torinn double-moves, jumping twice over the difficult terrain.
Sid uses resistive formula on Sureiya, Sureiya gains a +1 power bonus to AC, which he can end as a free action to gain 22 temporary hit points. Sid uses magic weapon, which hits for 20 damage. Ramuh gains a +1 power bonus to attack rolls until the end of Sid's next turn. Sid moves. http://orokos.com/roll/206484

Backlash tatto MBA: (27 damage) http://orokos.com/roll/206576 http://orokos.com/roll/206577

The sagely-looking revenant focuses his energies into the conjured vortex, and it drifts slightly north as he works to maintain it. Gesturing towards the gaoler with his staff, Ramuh calls down a powerful bolt of lightning that strikes the gaoler square in the chest, bowling it over and leaves it spasming on the ground. The follow-up strike goes wide, however, passing through the air where the gaoler had been standing before and striking the ground just above its head.

Gallard detaches himself from the ground, and mutters, "Very well, then I'll do this myself..." He moves forward with a deadly purpose, then brings his staff down on the unsuspecting gnome. As it connects with Sid's head, the lich magically conjures right at the point of impact, which splits apart and blasts Sid with rocky debris. However, by this time the gnome has already vanished from sight--and though this doesn't stop the rocks from hitting him and hurting him, it does mask his movements from the lich.

Which proves vital as the gaoler shrugs itself to its feet and reaches towards the ground, preparing to hurl Sureiya right off the edge of the platform. All you see next is a crossbow bolt strike the gaoler right in the stomach, and a huge explosion of lightning as it splits apart, spilling its sludgy guts all over the ground.

Ramuh sustains howling hurricane. Ramuh moves the zone. Ramuh uses pinning bolt, hitting the gaoler for 29 lightning damage, and it is slowed and knocked prone.
Ramuh spends an action point! Ramuh uses lightning strike but misses the gaoler.
Sureiya's melee basic attack from backlash tattoo hits the ghoulish gaoler for 27 damage.
Gallard ends his stone roots as a minor action, then moves. He uses rock crusher on Sid, which hits once for 9 damage, then the secondary attack hits for 10 damage. Sid uses fade away and becomes invisible.
Ghoulish gaoler 2 stands from prone. Ghoulish gaoler uses landslide which hits Sureiya, but Sid interrupts with shocking feedback, which crits for 36 lightning damage. http://orokos.com/roll/206638 http://orokos.com/roll/206639 This kills the gaoler and prevents landslide from happening. The gaoler's death burst creates the zone of poisonous sludge.

Notes
As long as the Earthen Ward persists, Gallard is immune to all damage, conditions, and effects.
Gallard's stone roots render him immune to forced movement via a push, pull, or slide, and he cannot fall prone. However, they also render him [red]immobile[/b]. He can end or resume this effect as a minor action.
If you end your turn in the lich's shifting earth aura (marked by orange aura on the map), the lich can slide you 2 squares to another square in the aura.
When a gaol bursts, it attacks creatures in a close burst 1 for a moderate amount of damage. This doesn't affect the creature inside the gaol, but it does count as that creature's turn.
Damage dealt to a gaol is transferred to the creature inside. If the creature inside is bloodied, the gaol crumbles, freeing the creature within (this doesn't count as the gaol bursting). Gaols share the defenses of the creature within.
The red areas represent where the platform will break apart. Everything on the outer side of the red areas as well as the red areas themselves will collapse in one round's time.
After tremors, the leyline uses epicenter on its next turn. The attack deals massive damage, but the damage is reduced for every square between you and the lich.
Ramuh's howling hurricane zone slides any creature that begins its turn within 2 squares.
The zones of sludge are difficult terrain. If you enter or begin your turn within the zone, you take 5 poison damage and are slowed until you leave the zone.

"It's too hard to concentrate while running around, so you're helping," the shaman tells Torinn, trying to avoid as much poison as possible.

Move action: to V-11, jumping over W-12. (16) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4568716/
Move action: hop on Rutger
Minor action: Inspiring Word for Torinn. Surge+2d6+2 healing for him. (surge+9) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4568718/

"We have to wait thirty seconds before attacking this bastard?..."
The ranger hops out from the poisoning mess and takes this chance to take a deep breath and order his body to behave. Then, he throws his cold-infused flying sword against the closest gaol, but it ends up being too far away for him to land a real hit.
Invigorating stride to S-25, spend second wind should be at 47 hp after that
Ranged twin strike (with -1 penalty) (two misses) http://orokos.com/roll/206712

The shaman braves jumping over the poisonous sludge, and mounts Rutger, stepping slightly in the sludge as she does so, and the poison causes her to wince a bit. The spirit of healing she calls to infuse Torinn revitalizes the dragonborn, however.

Sureiya shrugs off the poison with the help of Sid's enchantment, and backs up a bit, pauses to catch his breath, and then hurls his blade twice at a nearby gaol. It bounces harmlessly off the gaol's craggy exterior.

"Enough!" calls the lich, raising his staff high. "The earth calls for blood!"

Bernkastel moves, jumps, and mounts Torinn. She takes 5 poison damage and is slowed.
Bernkastel uses inspiring word on Torinn, who spends a surge to regain 33 hit points.
Sureiya takes 5 poison damage and is slowed, but his resist all prevents the damage. Sureiya uses invigorating stride, shifting 2 squares and using his second wind to spend a healing surge and
Sureiya uses twin strike (ranged) but misses the gaol twice.

As two of the gaols burst open, sending stone shards flying in a shower around them, the head of Gallard's staff glows, and the earth around Sureiya suddenly depresses and begins to rumble violently, as if it's about to burst apart and catch the half-orc in it. The half-orc also feels magic that seems to suck him partially into the depression, making movement quite difficult.

Gallard's mastery of the leyline allows the leyline to attack with weight of the land, Sureiya is slowed (save ends).

His fly having recovered somewhat, Myn returns to the battle.

Free action: Double fly-run to L/M-7/8, Elevation 0.
Minor action: Curse Spitter 1.
Standard action: Cast Spiteful Glamor against Spitter 1.

Fly saving throw:http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4569423/

Myn turns his fly around and returns to the battle, swooping quickly down next to one of the newly-released pus spitters, and glares spitefully at it. This fails to have the desired effect, however, and it simply attempts to slam the warlock with its body, but the fly dodges to the side just in time.

The howling hurricane carries the dragonborn's mount, its rider, and its passenger to a new destination.

Myn's ebony fly takes ongoing 5 necrotic damage. It double-runs while flying, then Myn places his curse on the adjacent pus spitter.
Myn uses spiteful glamor but misses the pus spitter, and the pus spitter's slam opportunity attack misses Myn.
The ebony fly saves against ongoing damage. Torinn begins his turn in Ramuh's zone and can be slid.
