Sogathan heals Subdolus for 15 points.
OOC: I'm going to be acting for Cadellin while P&P is on vacation.
The Yellow Wizard quickly contemplates the situation. He agrees with Subdolus that the woman being tortured in the back is now likely dead (or would be killed if the party rushed in anyway). After a few moments he lifts his wand. A sudden explosion of sound and light alluminate the forest as a forked bolt of lighting smashes into the log cabin. With an explosion the outside wall is torn apart blasting inward and outward in smokey firey pieces of oak. When the dust clears you see a huge gaping hole in the side of the structure, 20 feet high and 10 feet wide covering the front of the the first and second floors. Lieing on the ground is the ancient man Tiberious had seen rocking in the rocking chair. You also see 2 trolls badly injured moving out of the rubble. In moments two plate armored fighters come running out a doorway inside the now split house (apparently uneffected by the blast), and then a 3rd knight in plate armor with black feathers sticking from his helmet comes down the stairs. He appears a bit singed. They all bear shields with a bat or wyvern standard upon them. The one on the stairs jumps at the group as if a jump spell had been cast upon him and lands feet away from Cadellin, a glowing bastard sword in his hand. The other two fighters start running as fast as they can manage toward the group, while the trolls seem to be removing a large timber off of the body of the old man now lieing on the ground motionless.
Initiative: Group 3 monsters 4.
The fighters attempt to block this dark knight near the magic user, but they are too slow as he moves with unnatural quickness. With two swipes from the helmeted black knight the wizard takes 25 pts of damage and is thrown down The other two evil fighters clear the rubble and will be within combat distance next round.

Calhagan cuts threw his plate creating a gouge in his neck for 10 pts damage. Both Zargon and Ermanaric charge the other twon knights each taking one. Zargon misses with a 4, and Ermaneric fails as well with a 5.
Sog attempts to cast a light spell into the eyes of the black knight, but he saves (with a 20) deflecting it over him into the trees. The Yellow Wizard is still awake and spends this round getting back up and finding his footing.
What actions do Subdolus and Tiberious wish to take?

Tiberious will jump in font of the magician and attack with both magiclal handaxes (hoping to roll two 20s!) and hoping Sub might get a back attack.
(Axe, if it was possible the monk will hopefully attack from invisibility (his cloak) and move silent abilities---hoping to actually gain a segment or two of surprise.)

If the wizard gave warning of his planned attack Sub is in hiding waiting for a chance to back stab. If not he holds his ground to help protect the wizard.

Subdolus is in good position (the way I have it set up) to attempt to backstab the knight on Zargon. He gains surprise from behind after HIS he MS (22, 19) his first backstab segment is devistating. His dagger penetrates the armor of his victims neck going threw it while his sword pops out the front of his armor just below the heart. The fighter is dead before he hits the ground.
Tiberious swings with both axes at the black knight hell bent on killing Cadellin. He manages to hit once for 13 pts (cutting a gash across the knights ribs).
Initiative: Monsters 3, group 3. I'll do the monsters first. The two trolls manage to get the body free of the rubble and lift the ancient looking man to his feet (still alive...or moving anyway). The ancient figure lifts his hands and casts a spell at Zargon and Subdolus (both near one another). Each is slowed, and unable to attack this round. The fighter on Tiberious swings twice but hits only once for 12 pts total. When his blade hits he feels an icey numbness. The other evil fighter misses his target rolling a 4. Counter. Cadellin seeing old man is still alive after his first lightning blasts takes no chances and fires another from his wand. This time the lightning tears the trolls and old man apart! All thats left are splatters of smoking flesh. (P&P please deduct all these charges).
Tiberious misses twice, while Zargon and Subdolus move in a slow motion toward the evil knight on Tiberious. The other fighters hit twice on the other evil knight chopping off his arm and causing a gash across his face. He falls to the ground bleeding and unconscious.
Initiative: Monsters 4 group 6. The only attacker left is the evil knight on Tiberious. Let me know what everyone wants to do. Cadellin casts magic missiles which smash into the evil knight blowing off bits of armor. The fighters charge but only Zargon hits for 9 pts total. Does TIberious wish to get out of range of the fighter (now that his comrads have come to the rescue). Also does Subdolus wish to press his attack or HIS (or something else)?

Cadellin appears to have run out of hp, so he collapses to the ground again.

Seeing the odds favor the party Subdolus presses the attack.

Trusting that Sog can see to Cadellin, Cal attacks the remaining bad guy.

OOC: Totally screwed that up, I missread on my paper and thought Cadellin had 27 HPs! He's actually got 19 so that puts him at -6 after being attacked by the anti-paladin! I'm going to allow that last lightning blast though seeing how I screwed up...a favor from the gods before his lights went out. Man I hate when I do that!)
Subdolus's blades scrape off the odd plate armor, it seems different somehow. Tiberious moves back and gives assistance to the fallen wizard. Sogathan kneels down and casts a cure light wounds spell for 4 pts.
Initiative: evil fighter 4 group 1. The fighter swings first at Subdolus (seeing he is lightly armored) rolling a 15 he hits inflicting 12 pts damage. The thief also fails to save against the ghoul effect of this wicked negatively charged blade and he curls up on the ground in a paralytic state (save role 7) turning blueish. The evil knights second blow goes toward Cal's head cutting threw his helm it inflicts 9 pts damage. Luckily the fighter saves, but he still feels its icey chill.
Counter: Zargon hits for 11, and Cal chops into his leg for 10 total. Erm moves to defend the fallen thief who could be killed in his prone state. Sog heals Cadellin for 7 more bringing him up. The yellow wizard shakes his head (having saved against the blade twice). Next round you can act. Tiberious throws his two axes at the fighter, one makes contact and comes back covered in blood.
Popping in from invisibility behind Zargon is the huge torturer that the scouts had spotted at the back window. He is now completely naked and covered in ash. He carries a huge hammer across his back and a large earthen vase in his hands. He attacks Zargon by tossing out the contents of the vase at Zargon at close range (winning two segments of surprise as he moved into position invisible). Gallons of wigling muck splash on him, Zargon fails to save (roles a 3) and you see 20 worm like creatures quickly covering him along with the sticky amberish liquid that was in the vase. The nasty worms move quickly probing over his body and attempt to find access threw the cracks of his armor into his flesh. 6 manage to get in to him this round (one burrows into his face terrible to behold! they squirm below his flesh moving deeper into him) "BY THE GODS" cries Cal, close enough to see "ROT GRUBS"! Worse still Zargon is overcome with the effects of the amber liquid which covers his body and face. The goo starts to set like thick honey, but with a putrid stench and it also stings at his eyes...it makes his movement very difficult and he falls over (still under the effect of the slow spell remember), The fat bald torturer grins in satisfaction at his pets and grabs his hammer prepared to do battle with whoever is foolish enough to attack him.
Groups counter (The Yellow Wizard is now up and can act, Subdolus is paralyzed and Zargon looks in bad shape).

Cadellin raises his arms and contorts his hands casting. Suddenly the torturer seems to lift in the air a bit, spin around at a tremendous speed into a blurr and disappear. On the ground below him is a large barnacle about an inch across.
Cal hits the knight in the head cutting off half of his helmet exposing a hideous face (though human Chr 5) his blow inflicts a nasty cut for 8, and his second blow cuts into his leg for 6. Both of Tiberious's blows bounce off and his axes return ot his hands.
Sogathan runs up to Zargon and casts a cure disease spell on his friend. Suddenly the rotgrubs fizzle away. Zargon is still, however, overcome with the nauseating amber colored puss that seems to be hardening up. The cleric begins to clear it away from his mouth and nose first. Ermanaric stays by Subdolus's side and fires his bow twice, one arrow sticks into the knights arm for 5. Thats everyone.
Init: Monster 5, group 2.
The knight suddenly jumps backward toward the destroyed cabin ripped in two by the lighting bolts cast by the Yellow Wizard. Cal gets a free swipe as the knight attempts his escape, and hits with a 16 for 10 pts gouging his hand and chopping off a finger. Still, the evil knight manages to jump back to the ruins.
Tiberious throws his axes and ERmanaric fires but all attacks miss (a dismal set of roles).
Sogathan casts a hold person spell on the fleeing knight but he is uneffected! What does the Yellow Wizard wish to do? (the knight is now 30 feet from you and heading back up the stairs (now blasted in half), in a moment he'll be in the hall and out of site. This is the area he seems to have come from when you cast your first lightning bolt.

Cadellin pulls out his wand and levels it at the knight. He intones the mystic word (duyapheeluckipunk), and blasts him with a zig-zagging bolt.
(Logic: This guy's already been l-bolted, so he's only got lightning-proof loot left on him anyway.)
