Chult Hex Crawl - IC

[agignac]

Nyx summons her blade, ready now for melee. Draelin retreats a few steps, using Nyx as cover, but his bow snags in the undergrowth and his arrow goes wide of the zombie. Nolwenn's magical attack strikes the girallon zombie unerringly, blasting off bits of putrid flesh.

Red throws his Chultan spear at a skeleton, where it breaks off some ribs, before coming to a rest sticking out of its back like a strange third arm. His twiggy companion tried to attack the same skeleton, but fails to connect.

Finally climbing over the edge of the cliff, the satyr looses a magic stone at the girallon, and it disappears into his body with a wet plop.

With the courage (or recklesness) the tabaxi are famous for, Bliksem throws himself forward at the zombies. His sharp blade pierces one, but the bard is unprepared for the savagery of the retaliation. Both zombies turn their attention on the handsome catfolk, and began fiercely slamming him with their bodies, wielding their own arms like clubs. Bliksem finds himself forced backwards one step, then another.

One of the skeletons attacks Ziri, who turns her body against it, trying to shield the rope. She trusts to her metal body to protect her, but the skeleton's sword slashes through delicate joint connectors. Rather than attack her attacker, however, she steps forward towards the girallon zombie, knowing that if their guide dies here, they're in trouble. She punches at the undead ape-creature, and is rewarded as blood and tissue fly. However, the girllon howls in fury, and turns its attention to her. Four arms swing like hammers, and sharp teeth tear at a porcelain face. Ziri falls, landing heavily on the rope, saving the canoe even as the spark of life within her fades.

Okay, everybody up.
