1.3 - In Search of Sanity - Never-Ending Nightmare

As everyone shrugs off the wave of fear, having strengthened their resolve over the past couple days in this place of nightmares, you launch a counter-offensive against Zandalus.

Axon moves up and wreaths Zandalus with magical fire. Though the flames don't seem to phase him as they might otherwise (Zandalus: -2hp)

Razhel's crossbow bolt sinks into the enemy's shoulder just as Iosef's flies past (Zandalus: -8hp, then miss), then Elias and Grim run in to take the fight to the floating man. Red Destiny hits Zandalus in the stomach, drawing a gash through his robes (Zandalus: -7hp) while Elias swings his longsword as well, cutting deep into the man's flesh (Zandalus: -6hp).

Zandalus drinks down the potion and tosses the vial to the side. While maintaining the spectral drapes of cloth around his body he yanks backward a short distance then stares at Grim, threatening to rip into the man's mind, lest his willpower be strong enough (Grim: -9hp, or DC 16 Will Save for half (4)). "You cannot defeat what is not here, fools!" the voice echoes from Zandalus's unmoving lips.

Swift Action: Maintain Dark Half
Free Action: 5ft step
Move Action: Drink potion
Standard Action: Cast Spell - Mind Thrust I vs Grim (Using Phrenic Pool - 1 point for 'Defensive Prognostication', gaining +2 AC this round, and 2 points for 'Overpowering Mind' increasing the save DC by +1)

OOC:

From his last attack, Zandalus's use of Dark Half would have also caused 1 bleed damage against Elias - Elias takes -1hp at the beginning of each of his turns until the condition is removed.

Grim also now has Bleed 1, as above.

Everyone may post Round 2 Actions!

Name	Init	Status
Zandalus	A	AC 16 (18 temp this round), 25/46, 8 temp hp
Axon	B	18/18hp, Mage Armor (+4 AC, .5hr)
Iosef	B	23/23hp
Razhel	B	21/21hp
Elias	B	16/23hp, Bleed 1
Grim	B	15/22hp, Bleed 1

Axon shifts his position in the room, knowing full well the damage he might do with his magical fire. The flames catch Zandalus yet again, surrounding the man though he shrugs off the worst of them (Z: Reflex Save Successful, -3hp) as Razhel's crossbow bolt flies overhead.

Grim and Elias step forward again, with the hopes of bearing down and taking Zandalus out for good. Though the floating man yanks to the side, avoiding Elias's blow, it forces him almost directly into the path of Grim's Red Destiny as that weapon sinks deep into Zandalus's side (Z: -14hp)

OOC:

Grim took only 4 hp due the Will save! He was at 21/22 before Zandalus acted, took 4, then takes 1 bleed damage on his round, so should be at 16/22 now.

Elias takes 1 bleed damage and is at 15/23hp.

Zandalus is now at 16/46.

It's only been 2 days since @LightOfMidnight posted, so I'll give her more time before I act for Iosef.

1.3 - In Search of Sanity - Never-Ending Nightmare

As Iosef's bolt flies past Zandalus, the robed man yanks backwards again, gesturing once more at the focus of his current ire, the hat-bearing man known as Grim. "Who are you to defy my will!?" the voice echoes in the small room. He pulls another vial of liquid from his pouch, keeping it in hand, then raises his other hand, palm toward the ceiling, slowly upward. A strange and putrid yellow mist raises from the area around him, enveloping those nearby. His laughter fills the air as everything becomes difficult to see. Strange shadows dance within the mist, just outside your vision, threatening to pounce, rip, and tear at your flesh.

OOC:

Haunting Mists: Everyone in the yellow-highlighted area is in the fog. Everyone - please make a Will (Fear) Save vs DC 16. If you fail, you take 1d2 WIS damage and are shaken for as long as you are in the mist.

Similar to last combat - someone 5ft (one square of mist) away has concealment (20% chance to miss any attack), someone farther than that has total concealment (50% chance to miss and cannot by seen). This is determined by tracing a line from any corner of your square to all corners of the target's square to see how much mist is the line has to go through.

Elias looks around the shapes in the mist, trying to figure out if they are real or not. Even with all the nightmares they've been through, he manages to take a deep breath and keep it together.

OOC:

I'll see who needs same holy slapping and my lay hands removes shaken, and then maybe do that heal check for bleeding if I'm down too much HP

Assuming running into mist requires the save as well?

As the mists form Iosef runs forwards towards where he last saw Grimm, stumbling as the mist surrounds him. Thinking he's found him he reaches out with the wand shakily.

The mist hits all of you (20ft from J7 - one save only, pass or not nobody will have to save per round or anything after this. If you were outside the mist and then enter it, I would probably have you roll on a subsequent round still, but in this case that would only apply to Zandalus.

What a load of crap. Moving to D5 to keep Zandalus from scurrying into the corners.

Grim pursues Zandalus as the bastard tries to run away and sprays his yellow stink all over them again. He thrusts his blade and finds absolutely nothing.
