"I'm...not sure what to say," Nicholas admits. "This is far and beyond anything I've ever dealt with before. I just roam from town to town, offering healing to those in need. But if it's as dangerous as you say, then my first instinct would be to avoid it."

Giunona ScarletbarkHP: 33/33 - AC: 18 - CD: 1/1 - Inspiration: Yes - Active Effect(s): Protection from Evil and Good [10 m, from Nicholas] Giunona thinks over Nicholas' words, for a second she is tempted to proclaim the mission failed and go back to the village, out of ideas. " No, we can't leave this be just because it's dangerous. If we had run away when facing the ogres, we would have never saved Marcel." She sighs, dropping the scroll. - " Marthammor, I'll trust you'll guide my steps better than a Myrkul's cultist would." - she says to herself. - " Everyone, stay alert and ready to react!" - she orders, before bracing her shield and going toward the altar, readying her senses to respond to any danger. OOC Actions Taking the Dodge action, and I hope everyone else's doing the same.

As Giunona suspects, the moment she sets foot on the dais, the four skulls glow black, and a being of pure shadow with crimson red eyes emerges from each one, ready to attack. ============ (OOC: Roll initiative and state actions for Round 01.)

Three of the shadows descend upon Giunona, but aren't able to pierce her defenses. Terence shoots one with an arrow. Thuskar and Ulster rush forward onto the dais and engage the fourth one together. It attacks Thuskar but misses, and Ulster misses it. But Thuskar manages to stab it with his spear. Captain Miles slashes at one of the shadows fighting Giunona, but misses. Finally, Nicholas holds up his holy icon of Lathander and there is a flash of pink light. Two of the shadows fighting Giunona seem suddenly frightened, but one does not, nor does the one fighting Ulster and Thuskar. ============ InitiativeShadow 02: 21 Terence: 20 Shadow 03: 9 Thuskar: 9 Shadow 01: 6 Shadow 04: 7 Ulster: 4 Captain Miles: 4 Giunona: 1 Friar Nicholas: 1 Round 01!Shadow 02 moves 5 feet west and claws at Giunona [AC 18] (1d20+4): 3+4 = 7, miss. drdoyj1h1d20Terence looses an arrow from his long bow at Shadow 03 [AC 12] (1d20+3): 12+3 = 15, hit for (1d8+1): 3+1 = 4 piercing damage. 1d201d8Shadow 03 moves 10 feet west and 5 feet north, then claws at Giunona [AC 18] (1d20+4): 2+4 = 6, miss. 1d20Thuskar moves 15 feet east and stabs his spear at Shadow 04 [AC 12] (1d20+3): 17+3 = 20, hit for (1d6+1): 3+1 = 4 piercing damage. 1d201d6Shadow 01 moves 5 feet west and claws at Giunona [AC 18] (1d20+4): 10+4 = 14, miss. 1d20Shadow 04 claws at Thuskar [AC 16] (1d20+4): 4+4 = 8, miss. 1d20Ulster moves 15 feet east and stabs his spear at Shadow 04 [AC 12] (1d20+3): 3+3 = 6, miss. 1d20Captain Miles moves 5 feet southeast, then slashes his great sword at Shadow 03 [AC 12] (1d20+6): 2+6 = 8, miss. 1d20Giunona casts Shillelagh, then swings her shillelagh at Shadow 01 [AC 12] (1d20+5): 13+5 = 18, hit for (1d8+3): 5+3 = 8 bludgeoning damage.

Two of the shadows flee to the north end of the room. Terence shoots the same one as before, and that same shadow claws at Miles but is unable to get past his armor. Miles then brings his blade down upon it, destroying it. The shadow simply fades away into the ether. Meanwhile, the other shadow claws at Thuskar, draining the energy from his mortal body. He counters, but misses. Ulster stabs the creature instead, though. Giunona moves down to aid, but also misses. ============ InitiativeShadow 02: 21 Terence: 20 Shadow 03: 9 Thuskar: 9 Shadow 01: 6 Shadow 04: 7 Ulster: 4 Captain Miles: 4 Giunona: 1 Friar Nicholas: 1 Round 02!Shadow 02 moves 20 feet north.

Terence looses another arrow, this time at one of the turned shadows. He hits it, which has the unintentional side-effect of freeing it from the turning. It glides down to Nicholas and claws the monk badly. Miles turns and swings at it, but misses again. Meanwhile, Thuskar runs through the shadow by the altar, destroying it. So Ulster runs up to the other turned one and stabs it, while Giunona goes to aid Nicholas, but misses. ============ InitiativeShadow 02: 21 Terence: 20 Thuskar: 9 Shadow 01: 6 Shadow 04: 7 Ulster: 4 Captain Miles: 4 Giunona: 1 Friar Nicholas: 1 Round 03!Shadow 02 dodges.

Terence turns his attention to the shadow up in the corner, loosing an arrow at it, but missing. Thuskar and Ulster both stab at it, but to no avail. Ironically, this means the shadow remains turned, as nobody has been able to hit it yet. Before Nicholas can even react to Giunona's warning, it's too late. The shadow cuts him down, and he drops to the ground, bleeding heavily. Miles slashes his sword, but misses again. Giunona tries to fry the shadow with radiant energy, but it dodges to avoid the attack. ============ InitiativeShadow 02: 21 Terence: 20 Thuskar: 9 Shadow 01: 6 Ulster: 4 Captain Miles: 4 Giunona: 1 Friar Nicholas: 1 Round 04!Shadow 02 dodges.

Terence changes targets, and looses an arrow at the nearer shadow, but misses. Confused, Thuskar moves down to the other shadow and stabs it, destroying it. Ulster remains where he is, stabbing at the shadow but failing to hit it. With no other targets now, Captain Miles and Giunona move up to the final shadow. The captain misses, but Giunona manages to hit it with her shillelagh. ============ InitiativeShadow 02: 21 Terence: 20 Thuskar: 9 Shadow 01: 6 Ulster: 4 Captain Miles: 4 Giunona: 1 Friar Nicholas: 1 Round 05!Shadow 02 dodges.

The remaining shadow claws at Ulster, draining energy from the guard. Terence shoots the shadow, and since Thuskar is unable to get to it, Ulster stabs it next. Then Captain Miles finishes it off with a slash from his great sword. This leaves Giunona to revive Nicholas with her spell. The monk gets to his feet, a bit dazed from his near death experience. ============ InitiativeShadow 02: 21 Terence: 20 Thuskar: 9 Ulster: 4 Captain Miles: 4 Giunona: 1 Friar Nicholas: 1 Round 06!Shadow 02 claws at Ulster [AC 16] (1d20+4): 12+4 = 16, hit for (2d6+2): 3,3+2 = 8 necrotic damage.
