Kendral, 5 is a crit. They are undead. Confirm it please. I'm just gonna guess Xaka attacks guard 3 and Grimbly attacks guard 1. Grimbly needs to roll a normal attack. (1d6) Chapter 3: The Dark Fortress

Belvedere puffs his chest out as the spectral woman falls away to nothing! He lingers a moment, expecting her guards to quickly dissipate in the wake of her demise.
But then they don’t, and so he leaps back into the fray with some panache! He aims his wand at the one trying to take a slice out of Grimbly!

Belvedere might have just hit Grimbley. Grimbly needs to succeed on an armor save or lose a strike.

So, @Windyridge , are you going to add Karma to your armor roll or take DEATH? Guard 3 is "dead" now, Ken's bow and Grimby's attack were successful. Guard 1 lost a strike thanks to Xaka.

Monster's Turn
There is only one ghost guard left and he's determined to avenge is fallen Mistress and comrades. He finds himself locked in melee with Xaka who's skill has caused him to 'bleed' ectoplasm on the cold stone floor. He tries to bash her with his shield while swinging with his sword. The blinking in and out from this reality is an indicator his strength is waning.

Xaka takes the top of the shield punch on the kisser, feeling the sting, bit tries to absorb most of it with her chest armor.
She feels like she's on her last legs and counterstrike with the imbued spear.

The red is the strikes and the blue is the karma. If there is a mistake let me know. 
OOC:
I'll post a post battle report later today. Xaka lost a strike but she destroyed that ghostly guard! The term 'overkill' is an understatement lol. For surviving a tough fight everyone gets +1 Karma. Congrats!Mar 17, 2024 7:24 pm
The Cellar Throne Room
This room is made to look like a Throne Room but its actually a room for torture. Various instruments and tools used to inflict pain adorn the walls like decorations. In each corner is an iron maiden and in the center is an elaborate rack. Braziers used to heat up tongs are sitting idle, filled with unburned charcoal briquettes. Opposite of the room is a dias upon which sits a wicked looking iron throne flanked by two brackets which are used to hold torches. Sconces align the walls, the torches unlit.
The floor, walls and ceiling are made of flat stone and mortar designed for function; not for decor.
In a cup holder on the arm of the throne rests a Unholy looking Grail which matches the description given by the Baron. On a podium near the throne rests a giant grimoire, also matching the Baron’s description.
It might take a few moments to absorb but the battle is over! Blood was spilled but the party survived. Those with Soul Weapons may sense that the air is a little cleaner and a weight has been lifted. This Castle has had a cleansing; at least for the moment.
Items of Interest:
Necromancer’s Grimoire (locked)
Chalice of Poison
Treasure:
Non-spell casters may make 2 rolls from Common Gear (p.40) or 1 Specialty Gear (p.41)
Spell Casters may make 1 random roll for a scroll (p.88)

Xaka breathes hard and dabs at her many wounds with a corner of her shirt. "Whooo! Take that!" she says, doing a dance move over the last fallen ghostly guard. She wobbles on her feet, a little fuzzy from blood loss, but mostly okay.She selects Quill, ink and parchment as her choice of the loot on the room

"Marvelous!" Belvedere remarks, as he takes a quick glance at the scroll. If nothing else, the creature bound to the spell would help them navigate the waters, if they were forced to leave the same way they came.
"Perhaps the Urn is within one of these torture devices?" Belvedere goes on, hoping someone else would make good on his suggestion and check!

"Yeah the motherload indeed," adds Kendral. He then finds some caltrops in the spoils. Hmm...these may come in handy. But I don't suppose they'll slow down any chasing undead though."
He looks at Xaka steady herself after dabbing her wounds. In amazement he says, "Nothing stops you, huh? That's a good thing."
Not convinced about Belvedere’s suggestion regarding the urn location, Kendral checks a torture device nonetheless. As he inspects he says, "If the urn is not here, what next?"

"Two out of three is a good day’s work, wouldn’t you say?" Belvedere quips.
"With the demise of the wicked one, the Baron might send a more size-able retinue to turn the place over." he says, eager to be away, when more undead are mentioned.
