Draelin's two arrows added to the damage from Nyx's arcane attack, and the lead zombie stumbled, then fell. Unmoved by the loss of their comrade, the others continued forward.

Lurching through the underbrush and hanging vines came a sixth figure. Not unlike a gorilla, but taller and with four arms, this would have been a fierce creature in life. In death, with flesh hanging in strips, it was a horror.

"Girallon!" Qawasha cried, staring at the creature in fascination. The beast beat its chest and ran forward towards the druid, shockingly fast on its feet. Qawasha barely got his staff up in defense before the beast was on him. All four clawed hands slashed at the tall Chultan, and its dirt-encrusted fangs bit at him. The druid's skin was tough, almost like bark, but the girallon zombie still scored two hits on the druid. He staggered, bleeding freely. Behind him, cowering in the underbrush, Weed made a strange, terrified whistling cry.

The skeletons lurched forward, rusty swords in bony hands, closing in with Qawasha and Ziri, but not yet engaging with them.

The last two undead, both zombies, moved to attack Draelin and Nyx. Weaponless, the zombies swung their fists like meaty clubs. The elf took a solid hit on the jaw, but Nyx evaded the clumsy blow.

Ziri rushed forward to the druid's aid, swinging her own iron fist at the zombie. Its four-armed defense confused her, however, and her fist landed in blood-encrusted fur without actually damaging the creature.

Qawasha spoke a few words in a musical language, and his staff sparkled with magical power.

Everybody up.

All the rolls are in the ooc thread, if you were hit, check for your damage there please.

Xarmus is climbing, which is half-speed, so with a double move is able to get to the top (well, 35 of 38 feet, but we'll call it even).

See slide deck for terrible map and pic of the girallon zombie.
