Therrien has no magic and has figured the machine's weakness after seeing his compatriots do damage. He is furious that he has not been able to hurt the bot. He sees the metal heated from To'ot's attack and aims his longsword swing there.

The baby is now screaming in terror right in To'ot's ear with the clashing of swords and explosions all around it.

The machine, calculating that it is outmatched, changes its strategy to try to disable what it deems its attacker most likely able to be nullified. Spinning its torso again, it quickly slashes at Harper twice, in a single fluid motion.

Harper's most recent attack was greatly successful, but he neglected to account for the android's inhuman flexibility and is caught off guard when the upper half of the machine spins while the bottom half stays planted. Harp receives two long slashes across his left arm and right rib cage for his misstep.

Seeing the machine's successful strike against Harp I focus my attack on its hinged pelvis, that looks like it might be a weak spot in the contraption. Bringing my newly magic hammer across in a sweeping motion that reminds me of playing 'bat and ball' with my brothers, I seek to knock it off its course.

OOC:
Buffed out! I hope I actually do enough damage to kill it...
Breathing deeply I feel the blessing of my Lord coursing through my muscles as if He was literally guiding my hand and impelling my hammer. The hammer's flashing head connects just below the mechanical vertebrae and--almost as if it was preceded by a shockwave--it shatter outward into pieces... each arcing forth tracing lines of radiant fire as the scattered across the room. The thing's body-engine completes a graceful pirouette and crashes downward onto it's crumpling legs. Everything is still.
OOC:
Do i also add my strength modifier (+3) to the damage? if so then 13.

Harp approaches the remains of the bot, inspecting the intricate inner workings. There's one little gear that's still spinning, and he reaches down to touch it when it emits a high pitch screech then explodes.

To'ot has a surprising amount of insight into a thing that appears in all ways inorganic, and is able to spin behind a pillar just in time, taking a bit of flaming shrapnel in the forearm, while Therrien hits the ground just as half a cog goes flying over his head, landing on the back of his calf and carving out a deep gash.

Rhiv figures out what is happening just a bit too late to get his shield in front of the blast and takes four pieces of shrapnel to the chest and one to the ribs.

Harp will take max damage (12), Rhiv takes 9, To'ot and Therrien take 4 each.

I grimace in pain and anger as the shards sear into my chest...... "For woe's sake... there's always something. If I get my hand on the maker of that welcome present he'll meet my hammer first.'' As the dust of the shrapnel settles and I staunch the bleeding in my chest I survey the scene and my comrades. To'ot and Therrien, though sightly shell-shocked, are little worse for the wear. Harp however, is sprawled on the floor, unmoving, with blood soaking his garments in many areas. "Harp! .... Harp!!" I yell as I quickly run to his aid. No response. Laying my hands upon his heart I pray to the Adonai: "Oh Adonai, my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me. I call upon you now to heal this brokenhearted man. Pour out your power here and now to bind his wounds and be a salve to his soul." The glow and warmth that emanates from my hands slowly spreads into and through Harp's body and his breathing regains a steady pace.

Once Harper awakens I immediately pulls the lever on the wall.

My arm stings after the fiery projectile catches it, but lessens to a dull ache. I cannot hear anything for a ringing in my ear that lasts a few minutes as the dust settles. I close my eyes tight and try to find my center. Moon and Stars help us all But I cannot stand the darkness while the cursed ringing continues in my ears, so I blink my eyes open, and see Harp. He is lying in his own blood, felled by the the metal abomination, and I think the worst. Brother Rhiv stumbles to his friend, though he too is bleeding. The brave dragonborn prays for his comrade and his efforts bring back Hard from the brink. Harper has been on the brink too much recently - how long can one take this punishment? Rhiv's words of prayer strike me - "heal this broken hearted man". He seeks to heal more than the physical pain that seems follows Brother Harper.

I quietly approach Rhiv from behind, and as he is deep in prayer to his higher power, I lay my hands on his back and side, and evoke the cure wounds spell.

I see Harper awaken. As Rhiv stands and moves toward the lever, my attention turns to the smoking metal monstrosity on the ground beside us. I am consumed with fury over the unnatural pile of wires and bolts. I drag it over to the side of the room, throw the heap against a wall, and start bashing at the pile with my quarterstaff. This thing that never lived or breathed the air can do nothing by cause pain and destruction. I only come to my senses when the baby screams his displeasure from my back.

I curse myself for losing my balance. Shifting the baby to the front I sing a song my mother sang to me:
"Who grows the four-leaf clovers in June?
Who dims the daylight? Who lights the moon?
Four little field mice who live in the sky.
Four little field mice....like you and I.
One is the Springmouse who turns on the showers.
Then comes the Summer who paints in the flowers.
The Fallmouse is next with walnuts and wheat.
And Winter is last...with cold little feet.
Aren't we lucky the seasons are four?
Think of a year with one less...or one more!"
