[Gameplay] 4. The Canny Jackal

Iseret's blade misses the lithe creature, but Tabat strikes it hard.

Khadi's channeling, however, remains extra effective... but again, it shrugs off some of the damage.

Situation so far
Small undead, AC 16, DR 5
Immune to flanking and critical hits
Vulnerable to channeled energy
Damage: 34 (out of 65 max)

Rolls

Fort save DC 16 vs 25 damage - (1d20+7)

The creature continues to focus on Khadi, it's intestinal tentacle attempting to kill and grapple her. She's hit grievously by the horrible fiend. She's clutched by it, and it begins to leak more acid onto her to begin consuming her.

Situation so far
Small undead, AC 16, DR 5
Immune to flanking and critical hits
Vulnerable to channeled energy
Damage: 45 (out of 65 max)

OOC:

I think Khadi is unconscious here.

OOC:

She's disabled on exactly 0, so still standing.. unless those grabbles come with constrict/I've missed damage. (I counted 23?)..Though just realised she may not have healed from her last hit which she really should have. Just checking. Edit: Yep she had 2 damage her on from the hands.. so she's down on -1

Just as the thing is about to extract and consume Khadi's liver, Tabat, Iseret and Jaware all land blows. The creature explodes into shards of pottery and viscera draping the unconscious girl with gore.

Combat is over.

OOC:

@WhtKnt: Iseret's base attack bonus should be +3, so you have a +8 on short sword attacks. I applied that on the last attack which is why she hit a AC16.

OOC:

DOn;t like that : CHeers for killing it guys :p

Khadi come around we a groan, before her eyes suddenly snap open as her brain catches up with what has just been happening. SH scrabbles into sitting swiping away at imaginary tendrils before she begins to realise thats it gone. Her breathing is heavy for a few more moments before she begins to slowly calms.
That..I di not.. like that thing. She lets out a few more deep breaths. 'b]'Thank you.. all of you. That um...wasn't pleasant. [/b] Even as she speak teh scarab around her neck glows and the energy pulses out with healing, as if triggered by her distress, or perhaps even Khepri himself does.

Seeing Khadi on her get, and helping her stand on shaky legs, Jaware goes looking around. Not far, yet.

Two items of interest hang near the door you came in: Pharasmin cleric’s vestments and a silver holy symbol of Pharasma, both in good condition.

The nosoi Qasin is following you, and she recognizes the vestments and holy symbol as Ptemenib’s and excitedly points them out, inferring from their presence that her friend must be somewhere nearby.

Most of the goods stored here are mundane and not worth much money. The most obvious valuables are:

¤ 12 ancient bottles of honeyed wine, worth 25 gp apiece. The room holds other items of wealth as well, provided their value can be recognized.

¤ Khadi and Tabat can identify a sphinxlike statue as the Auroric Flame-Mother, a representation of the elemental lord Ymeri thought lost to the ages and worth 750 gp.

¤ Iseret recognizes a broken old water clock as being the handiwork of Pheron, a legendary pioneer in Ancient Osirian mechanics, and worth 1,200 gp to a collector.

Tabat takes the cleric's vestments and folds them neatly into his bag before re-slinging it over his shoulders. "We will find your friend," he says to comfort the Quasin, though he worries about what their odds are, finding that undead creature down here.

"Do you see this?" he asks, pointing to the sphinxlikek statue. The look on Khadi's face indicates she knows just as well how rare and valuable the item is. "We will make sure this gets into the right hands."

"What do you see over there, Iseret?"

"I believe that this water clock is the handiwork of Pheron. He was well-respected for his mechanical prowess, and it will probably bring a nice profit, even in the condition it is in."

Tabat nods in appreciation of the craftsmanship. "Let's make sure to grab these things on the way back through. Let's check the southern door next?" He motions southward and waits for Iseret to clear it of traps before they head forward.

The doors to the south room have been boarded over to prevent entry, but the planks can be easily removed with a few minutes’ work. It's not a thorough job.

Beakers, cauldrons, and other alchemical equipment crowd several tables in this cramped room. A decomposing body sprawls across the floor, its face concealed behind a brass funerary mask.

Iseret and Jaware both immediately detect the pungent scent of a gas.

"Something smells wrong, an alchemical scent, not the body."

Closing the door forming behind you, you move to the other for in the western wall of the huge room.

Iseret checks the door thoroughly and determines it is neither locked nor trapped.

The gentle lapping of water echoes through this chamber. Stone stairs descend from a raised platform into a subterranean canal that leads west. Loading doors exit the chamber to the east and south.

Within the chamber, two men and a trained hyena guard the platform. They're on alert but Iseret hasn't alerted them yet.

Tabat nods and looks inside the room. He motions to his nose, hopefully correctly indicating to Iseret a concern that the hyena may smell her if she tries to sneak in. He readies his spear and motions toward the door, ready to attack on his companions' indication of readiness.
