Skeeve thinks, "Well, this isn't good."

OOC:
Everyone can go ahead and act again. I am just declaring Edair did not react before this point in time so we can keep it moving.
Shuffling weapons is a free action so no worries for Blornvid

OOC:
Cool, thanks.
Blornvid tries to get to the creature's left flank, the smell of ozone still in his nostrils, to strike it with his axe.

Blornvid strikes the creature in what he thought for sure was a weak spot. Instead, he gets a tingling sensation running up his arms and into his teeth. "Argh! This thing's enhanced. My axe isn't going to have any effect on it."

Elysium777 is leaving the game due to time constraints so Edair Duril is getting a shocking ending :)
Blornvid will only take 1 damage due to his noble sacrifice
As the lightning arcs out Edair tries to block it with his blade but instead directs a larger portion of it into his body and the swordsman's body spasms as he is thrown back and falls unconscious.

Skeeve says, "It seems like it has some electrostatic charge that repels metal attacks. It may even be affecting my magic bolts.
OOC:
When he made is two-word radiance scroll, he also successfully made a two-word sunder scroll. Skeeve had intended to use it one a structure or cavern or something like that. Since this is a construct, and not a living creature, it should be a valid target. Does that seem reasonable?

OOC:
Sunder will work yes

Skeeve calls out, "I'm trying something different. Be prepared if it is bigger than expected!"

With that he pulls out his scroll and reads it with focus (using both actions). He targets the spell directly on the mechanical monster trying to rip it apart.

... read it wrong. Will have to try again. :(

The mech-arcane creature presses it's advantage, slashing its tail again at Ealdwig and snapping its jaws at Blornvid

Ealdwig hearing Blornvid Oh, Hells! I'm in trouble. He remembers his Chromacloth and tries to change it's color. Nothing happens. Hells, why isn't this thing working?!

Because you already used it today, dummy. Ealdwig groans loudly. Now what?

Ealdwig tries to evade the tail from the construct. Then he will try to get as far away from the creature as possible as to not get hit again. Uh, guys...I don't have anything that's going to do any damage to that thing. I head toward Edair to see if I can help him in any way.

Evade attack using Agility trait - (1d6)

Ealdwig almost evades the bladed tail but is scratched none the less. 1 point damage

Since the thing attacked again, I assume I can try again.
Again, with focus.

OOC:
Yeah, in combat after the opponent acts the characters are free to respond
Blornvid and Ealdwig can act still. The thing is definitely damaged but not completely destroyed
As Skeeve reads from his scroll the magic imbued into the paper is successfully unleashed and a loud crack resounds through the room .
Decapede

The metal creature shudders and large cracks appear all over its surface. Through the gaping holes you see cogs and gears along with crystals and arcane glyphs within its body. It shudders and move to attack

Blornvid hopes that whatever spell Skeeve used is enough for him to use his axe again.

Rolls

First Attack - (3d6)

Second Attack - (3d6)

Blornvids ax digs dep into the crack on his first hit shattering some of its inner workings while the second only crashes against the side of the thing though this does chip off a bit of the outer metal shell enlarging the gaping wound in its side.

OOC:
Well, I have the chromacloth but I used it. I have a pendent that would help against bugs in the swamp. That's all I remember ever getting or finding. There is nothing additional on my character sheet. I believe I also have a dagger and the goblin sword. I have the pole, I can try that.
Ealdwig, being unable to revive Edair, picks up his acrobat pole, stands, spins and strikes at the construct.

Skeeve says, "Nice work guys! Let's get this thing stopped!

Skeeve's outta scrolls now. Hopefully any more obstacles don't need a scroll to defeat. Unless we can conveniently find one.

Ealdwigs strikes against the side of the thing into the gap breaking it open more and he is sure that the simple enlarging enchantment on it seems enough to bypass its magical protections. But his second strike make the matter one for latter debate as it blasts strait through the gap and out the far side of creature. The construct immediately ceases functioning.

You take a moment to verify the fallen metal creature will not pose a threat while also looking into the area it came from. The open archway reveals another large room with a door on the west wall, toppled statue adjacent to it, and a sundered shield lies in the south side of the room. The status depicts a tall muscular elf, or half elf, dressed in light armor with weapons sheathed.

OOC:
Even though we know the meta-reason why, Skeeve doesn't, so he has to check.
Once the construct stops, Skeeve rushes over to check on Edair, to see if he can be revived. When they see he is completely gone, I assume they all take a moment to mourn their fallen comrade.
OOC:
As a side note, what happened to Etcher? I know the player is gone, but what about the character. I know that many of them are wandering around the base, but did he get consumed by the building's apparatus or is he still knocking about the manor somewhere? I suppose it doesn't really matter, but I was just curious what you did with him.
Skeeve says, "While entering a new room seems to be a new chance to accidentally activate something, do we want to check out the room and statue?" Then with a smirk, he continues, "Or do we just assume the statue will animate and attack?"
