KO'd this turn
Zathyran and Pierre headed left. There was another orb at the end of it, and Zathyran touched it. The only change was that the way back became blocked off. ...Looked like splitting up was, indeed, the only option.
Meanwhile, in the basement, Alora began sprouting silver fur along her visible skin as her face and teeth elongated, becoming a lupine muzzle. Snarling, she leaped... (-2 MP. 8+2 vs 6+2-3; 6+4 Critical Damage, 2d6x2+50%+50% Element; 36 damage to TD1. -2 MP; 8+2 vs 2+2; 4+4 Massive Success, 2d6x2+50%E; 21 damage to TD2) ...and landed on the first demon, tearing into its back and showering the immediate area with black blood as she ripped through flesh and bone. After a moment of mauling, she turned to the other demon and threw herself upon him, pinning him down and biting his face and neck savagely. But this gave the first demon a chance to get back up and attack her from behind! (5+2 vs 2; 7-1 Minor Success, 1d4+3; 7-1=6 damage)
The electricity hit her in the back and caused her to recoil away from the second demon, allowing it to get to its feet. (1+2 vs 7+2-3. 4 vs 7+2-3) Claire and Malleus both moved to attack the demon from behind, but got in each other's way! Claire dived and accidentally hit Malleus in the side, who was so heavy with armor that she rebounded off and rolled away. However, the force of her jump was strong enough that even Malleus was forced to stumble to the side and his hammer went wide, completely missing the demon. While Claire was on the ground, the second Thunder Demon charged a lightning blast... (6+2 vs 5+2; Massive Failure, counterattack;
8+4 Critical Success, 2d6x2+100%; 24 damage.) The pirate was ready and already drawing her dual-barreled pistol, firing twice as she came to a stop on her back! The first shot struck the demon in the arm, throwing the spell wide, and the second hit it in the chest.
Things weren't going quite as good for the allies in the Tower of Science. Frenz and Biernat decided screw it, let's destroy things! (1, 7) Frenz tripped in the wreckage and fell down, while Biernat started smashing stuff in general. It turned out there was a bricked-over alcove in the wall that held a roast turkey! It was probably still good; Biernat ate it anyway. (Biernat regens 1d8 HP: 5 HP restored) The hands apparently wanted that turkey - and saw an opportunity to attack Frenz. (6+3 vs 7+1; Minor Failure. 4+3 vs 4+5) They couldn't get organized, though. Unfazed by the failure in general and lack of health concerns by his ally, he pushed on the chair. (2) The rails it were on had rusted, and Greenmoore was old and not as strong as he once was. However, he felt it start to move, and a squeaking sound came from the far door. The door swung open and all three ran for it, but Greenmoore suffered a final attack to his leg as he ran, (3 and 2 for bleeding, 5 total) receiving a deep cut. As they exited, Frenz and Biernat slammed the door shut and levered a nearby wooden beam into place.
Alexander paced back and forth among the hands, snapping at one here, clawing one there. They weren't going to do anything! Tariq, meanwhile, observed the chair, looked at the rails hidden mostly by dust and shadow, and started pushing the chair back toward the wall. (5) Although the rails were small and rusty, Tariq was persistent, and he slid it back with little trouble. The far door opened and he ran out. Alexander growled at the hands, then reverted to his human form and followed the watchman out. They closed the door and Tariq quickly latched it closed. It turned out, as they looked around, that the groups had reunited... in an area that wouldn't have been accessible from the previous hallway! There was only one way forward, and that was upstairs. However, perhaps it would be a good idea to stop and rest, or at least use a few supplies on their wounds before proceeding...?
