Re: The Sundered Way
Dornikal moves north and then NW. He throws a javelin at a target through the portal if there is one, otherwise he will bite his cheek again and wait.
((Should be at 54 hp after this turn I think?))

Re: The Sundered Way
"It's fine- Just thick, and purple." Ulmwin gives a quick reassurement to the guard. It's uncertain whether he's talking about the fog, or Holger.
"Unless those tubes and the portal are related, somehow..? Lots of effigy stuff near them. It can't be coincidence we find these kind of abominations close to this kind of technology twice, right?!"

Re: The Sundered Way
Dornikal chomps himself and moves right in front of the portal
Within the cloud, Holger hears a series of popping sounds and has the unpleasant feeling of something moving around in his mouth. His lips are forced open and something clicks to the ground. More spill from your lips as you hear tiny giggles. Probing your mouth, you discover all of your teeth are gone, only smooth gums remain.
Those of you outside the fog hear tiny splashing sounds as many tiny somethings fall off the platform.
Turn Order:
Dornikal (54/56)
Holger (25/33) (Rounds of Chaos Remaining: 5; rounds of 20 ft teleport remaining: 7; rounds of target on his back remaining: 8; fog cloud: 1 hour) <--------------------<<<

Re: The Sundered Way
In addition to the tiny splashes, there is a ripping sound as the portal widens.... something approaches....

Re: The Sundered Way
Holger casts detect magic and moves out of the fog to see if there is any magic auras linked to the portal. He then teleports back into the security of the fog on the platform where he falls to his knees with a soft whispered "no" as he realises the horror of what happened.

Re: The Sundered Way
Holger casts detect magic senses magic all around him. He figures since he was closer to the north end, he's got a better chance to make it out of the cloud to the south end, so heads that way, keeping his hands outstretched. He breaks through the fog near Ulmwin, the chaotic purple energy crackling harmlessly over the gnome and his guard, but Holger is too distant from the portal to pick up anything from it. He ports back to the relative safety of the cloud, falling to his knees on something small and hard, like a pebble.
More guards slosh their way into the room, the first ones through taking up weapons in anticipation of whatever is going to happen next.
Randerwaith moves north and feels around for a while in the area that the lance was dropped, managing to come up with it.
A trio of human/sea creature hybrids leap through the portal, Coljin tolls the dead, the bell echoing around the small chamber, adding to the alarm that is still going off, but the lead creature shrugs it off. Ulmwin calls into question its parentage... which is a fair observation, but the creature seems unaffected.
The two guards near the dead tentacle beast have a clear shot with their spears, and both hurl them at the creature closest to them. Both punch into the tentacled creature's side, before being ripped out.
Two of them swarm Dornikal, while the third, injured one goes for Anders. Dornikal manages to dodge the first barnacle encrusted fist, but isn't able to duck the second fist, but does duck the third that attempts to glom onto him with tentacles.
He does manage to dodge both flipper-like swings from the turtle like second creature, but when the head ducks back into the shell and tentacles burst out and grab him by the neck, he's not able to avoid them. He's tough though, and takes only minimal damage.
The one that goes for the waiting Anders has a fist that ends in a ball of spikes, but it swings at him twice with the other hand first, but the guard leader is wary and dodging... just not enough to avoid the ball of spikes, which jab him and dose him with a poison that leaves him a bit disoriented.
Junara begins cursing at being so close to the creature and being basically defenseless as he holds the gnome aloft.
Turn Order:
Dornikal (52/56) (Grappled)

Re: The Sundered Way
"Janara, retreat a bit so you are safe." he motions the man west, hopefully about fifteen feet before he would ask him to stop. He will again cast Toll the Dead, this time on the injured one attacking Anders.

Re: The Sundered Way
((He'll move when his turn comes around again, sure.))
The creature shakes its misshapen head and hisses at the tolling of the bells, but doesn't seem overly inconvenienced.
Anders takes two chops at the creature that poisoned him with his longsword, the first managing to hit despite his watering eyes, but the second swings wide. He blinks furiously, and manages to shake off the worst of the poison.
The first two of the new guards out of the tunnel have crossbows, and they scramble atop the felled tentacle beast to get a clear shot. The first goes wide, but the second taking it in the shoulder.

Re: The Sundered Way
Dornikal makes a disgusted gagging noise as he drops the javelin in his hand and, by instinct, pulls his warhammer out of his belt and slams it into the turtle thing grappling him while yelling,
"DUMATHOIN SPORKING TAKE YE."
Attacking Krang/Donatello: 1D20+6 = [16]+6 = 22

Re: The Sundered Way
Holger will grab the small thing underneath him with his free object interaction if possible as he gets up and jumps out of the fog to be next to Randy in the water.
He hexes (str) one he has a clear shot of , preferably the one grappling Dornikal. He then shoots it with an eldritch blast.

Re: The Sundered Way
((It'd be your action to grab it!))
Ulwmin steps to the side where he can see the creatures, calling out a curse that is shrugs off.
The mussel mouthed creature rises out of the water behind Randy, its horrific jaws opening wide, the mussel-teeth also clacking open and closed.
Dornikal switches javelin for hammer, slamming it down with holy might onto the creature in front of him, but it holds on.
Magic surges with Holger, his vocal chords thrumming with power.
The portal shrinks slightly.

She's also interested in the housekeeper if they make an appearance.

Re: The Sundered Way
Holger tries to grab whatever he is kneeling on, but feels a quick jab of pain and a giggle as it scampers out from between his fingers. Giving up, he stands and moves in the direction he thinks the edge is, eventually running into the chain railing and stepping over before hopping down and slogging out of the fog. He finds himself somewhat between Randy and Dornikal, so drops detect magic to cast hex (no wild surge triggered as it is not a sorcerer spell) on the one he has a clearest shot on, the one right in front of him. He lights it up with crackling eldritch energy as the swirl of chaos magic around him tickles its way along Dornikal, Randy, and Anders.
Junara backs himself and Coljin up a bit, and two other guards make it in range to attack the quilled fellow attacking Anders, both spears sinking deep, and combining to bring the creature down.

Re: The Sundered Way
((11 is good enough to hit.))
The barnacle covered fist slamming into Randy disrupts his protection, and he was perhaps relying on it a bit much, as the next punch, and a nasty bite from Mussel Mouth both land on him, the gangly creature gnawing his shoulder as the ranger stabs one of the new arrivals.

Re: The Sundered Way
Lance damage: 1d12+3 = [7] = 10
If Randy can use Planar warrior: 1d8 = [4] = 4
So either 10 piercing or 14 force damage.

Randy drops the lance and whirls around, glaring at muscle mouth.
"You just bit off more than you can chew, scum sucker!"
He pulls both swords and squares off with Muscle Mouth.

Re: The Sundered Way
Randy strikes a glancing blow that detonates against the creature attacking Dornikal, it flails its tentacles in pain.
The portal shivers and shrinks incrementally.
The creature just jabbed from a distance turns and hisses at Randy, but takes a couple swings at the dwarf before sending its tentacles writhing towards the ranger, curling up the lance, but he wrenches it to the side, tossing it into the water and the tentacles aren't able to reach him. Meanwhile, its companion tries to continue making a snack of the dwarf. Dornikal gets clobbered by a fist, but manages to avoid the tentacle grab, and fends off all blows from the other creature.
