Chaos Bolt at Ma2!
Attempt to save!
You cast chaos bolt! (19+6) You hit, dealing (5+7) damage! The mage is in critical condition! You (17) succeed in the save throw.
The mage begins his turn! He takes his staff in hand and strikes it on the ground as lightning flies out of his wand! The lightning heads towards Karl, Symon and Alexander! He hits all three of them, dealing (10) damage to Karl, (9) damage to Symon, and (10) damage to Alexander! ((Ouch! I rolled high...)) Alexander is bloodied and Symon is in critical condition again ((reminder, you're not unconcious yet))
Ha3 shifts 3 squares! He stabs at Symon at the end of his shift! The blade gets caught in your cloak, missing you (he still keeps the dagger though)
Thyra runs towards Symon, having an oppertunity attack on her from the halfing who accidentally throws his dagger out of his hand and hits the mage! The mage takes (4) damage! He's on his last legs! Thyra uses her minor to heal Symon for (11+3) with her aura. She then starts singing her song about war and bloodlust. Everyone in her Skald's aura (burst 5 centered from her) gets a +2 to damage rolls or +4 to damage rolls against bloodied enemies until the end of the encounter! She drops an action point and punts Ha2! She hits, dealing (4+5+4) damage, killing the halfling and launching him about 5ft from his current location.
"On your feet Symon. Your faith may keep you on your feet, by my singing will keep you alive"Cromwell (?) begins his turn by teleporting out of the tree and landing behind Karl! His eyes that are blue and soulless sparkle with an energy that looks like sparks. He unleashes a power that eminates from his mind and attacks the bandit leader. (15+6) He screams as the attack lands and his eyes go black. He grips his head as he takes (9+6+9+4) damage! Blood drips out of his ears as Cromwell says with a voice that sounds like two people:
Curse of the Dark Dream.... The bandit leader drops dead as his screams silence. Cromwell then does an intimidate check, doing as much teleportation glitches as he can in a couple seconds, to get the last two to surrender! (8+10) They both drop their weapons and give up after screaming "THE HORROR! MAKE IT STOP!"
Everyone gains 275xp (extra for the ambush planning, survivors, almost killing off the guard)! Cromwell levels up! Alexander Levels up! Thyra Levels up! ((I need encounter power choices from you two. Cromwell I can wait on. Alexander has no excuse))
Thyra begins by healing Symon with her song again and then tying up the last two bandits (Symon now stands at 33hp). Cromwell (?) stands there in silence. No jokes, no telefrags, nothing but silence. The party now holds 8 bandit prisoners. The camp is not far from where Alexander, Thyra, Cromwell, Karl and Symon stand.
What does the party do?
