OOC:
Savagebob, turns out that you don't need to worry about it this time. See below for why.
Hrafe runs upt to the traitor and manages to cleave straight into his chest. The single blow causes him to stop in intense pain, but just as he is about to fall over, he begins to laugh. It starts low, and grow and grows and smoke comes off of his body. Suddenly, his life force begins pouring out of his face as it reforms into some grotesque new form similar to that of a dragon but off in many ways.
[ +- ] Traitor's new form
He looks down at everyone from his new large form. "This is a gift of the Three." he says with an evil smile through his new reptilian mouth. He looks back at the magicians by the mages and says, "I will handle these ants. Focus on the sacrifice." The lizardmen nod and each pull out a stone dagger and chant louder.
OOC:
The lizardman magicians are no longer attacking unless they are defending themselves, so it is now Edgar, Raphel, and Salix's turn

OOC:
Did he drop Glaezentorg?
Dec 6, 2023 9:04 pm
OOC:
Yes you can pick it up with a quick action
Dec 6, 2023 9:25 pm
Salix quickly assesses the situation and decides to engage the lizardmen while Hrafe fights the traitor.

Salix Javelin flies at the Lizardman but it ducks just in time, but is slightly singed by the holy light
Dec 6, 2023 10:42 pm
Hrafe releases the grip on the sword which was impaled in the draconic mutants chest and retrieves Glaezentorg, the axe that by divine right was his. "Eg mun éta hjarta þitt."
OOC:
Quick action to recover Glaezentorg
Dec 6, 2023 11:02 pm
OOC:
Reminder what that does: Glaezentorg (melee weapon – recharge 11+):
When you hit with an attack using this weapon that
staggers or drops an enemy, make another melee
attack that turn as a free action.

I read this as the monster was not staggered before the hit but is staggered afterwards, not just a hit in an enemy who is staggered at all.

Raphel attempts to finish off the injured mage with a bolt of magic.

The bolt strikes as anticipated, but merely stings.

"Oh. Crap," Edgar mutters as Zvegard's transformation, internally wondering if there's a return policy on the gift.

Seeing Salix and Raphel attacking the lizardmen, he joins Hrafe in taking down the monstrosity that once were Zvegard. He runs forward to make a strike and tries to tumble back out of reach.

Edgar's strike lands with a heavy blow, but the new Zvegdar is able to brush it off. Zvegdar looks at the lizardmen and then back at the heroes. "You have a choice, heroes," he laughs. "Fight me and get revenge for the people I killed, or save these pitiful people my master's minions are soon to slay. Unless you think you can do both, but then you may fail both tasks. I see no need to stay after their job is done. So please, waist your time with revenge! Speaking of revenge, I need to thank the one who helped me finish this transformation." He then lashes out at Hrafe, who's blow triggered thr change.
OOC:
Yes, he rolls 3d20 and uses the best roll

Makasi looks to the chanting lizard-men. "Whatever this damned ritual is, we have to stop it." She thrusts her halberd out at the abomination Zvegdar, keeping it at bay as she disengages and heads over to the magic circle. She kicks at the magic circle. She swings at the nearest chanting lizard-man as she does so.
OOC:
Trying to get 6+ on Reach Tricks to avoid him getting an opportunity attack on me as I disengage. Then engaging with the ritual circle and attacking one of the uninjured lizard-men with Smite Evil.

Makasi manages to keep Zvegdar at polearm's reach until she disengages just far enough away that by the time the mutant traitor attacks he can't hit her. She then runs over and slashes the wounded lizardman Magician, staggering it.
OOC:
Hrafe goes and then magicians

"More glory for Skullbreaker! More glory for her Eminence!"

Hrafe butts the haft of Glæzentorg to create an opening, buffeting the creatures claws away. Wound up he followed up with a vicious lateral cleave to Zvedgar's scaly hide. Parting scales and flesh, severing an artery, he glowered maniacally at the draconic mutant drinking its lifeblood as he wrenched the blade free. Grinning wickedly as he espied its beating heart. "Your heart will be my feast!" The Beast had arisen in Hrafe, the guttural speech he uttered sounding at least as monstrous as his foes. "Glory to the Unstoppable Slayer!"

You're blow staggers Zvegdar, allowing Glaezentorg's power to trigger.
OOC:
You can make a free attack, as the weapon say as this blow is what caused him to get staggered.

During this time, the lizardman magicians defend themselves as they continue to chat. The one Makasi attacks tries to strike with its dagger, while the other two spray acid on those keeping their distance.

The magic of Glæzentorg seized Hrafe and its bloodthirst drove Hrafe deeper in his madness and fury. The spirit of the bloodthirsty axe lent itself in the form of superhuman swiftness and strength, Hrafe did not fight its influence, riding the euphoria he struck again howling his primal fury.

The attack lands with a heavy thump, but the traitor seems satisfied as long as his lizardmen survive another round to slay the mages
Dec 8, 2023 7:35 am
Raphel scowls as his magic fails to strike down its mark, seeming more bothered by the failure than the lizardman's counterattack. He lances his previous target again with another ray of magic.
