I cast Leech Life upon the Bone Knights.

(Perhaps it would be helpful to have a regular update as to the status of the remaining opponents and participants.)


EDIT:

I entreat all they who doth walk the wide path of this Northern Tunnel with me, tarry not in any attempt to deal with or to engage those foes nearby, whether they be enemies or allies they may be alike. Whosoever doth seek to offer any negotiated treaty will be lost. This is, veritably and forsooth an ultimately and futile battle. Instead of negotiating, all of thee must rally; push thyselves forward tirelessly with pure resolve. Now then, forward and away from that which would occupy thee and thine energies here now and hence press forward; march onward. We shall have our deliverence from this most vile and deletorious conundrum in which the lot of us are found! For, if we follow our own righteous jurisprudence and tire not, I know that we shall ultimatrly prevail!

Stephareth, Human Necromancer (male)

Northern main tunnel:

*rolls dice*

66 - Tomato - Goblin Thief and 10 - Squee - Goblin Thief both attack the zombie attacking Ioanna from behind *rolls dice* between them they manage to stab it in the back of the head and kill it.

56 - Damon - Dwarf Warrior moves to protect 77 - Aurelia - Elf - Cleric, he attempts to hand her a healing potion but she is not responding.

51 - Henz - Elf Thief moves to attack the zombie by Ioanna but it is already dead. He turns to face the one remaining unturned zombie.

21 - Danric the Exiled - Human Paladin *rolls dice* attacks Bone Knight with his silver sword, scoring a critical hit, leaving just a pile of bones in its wake.

32 - Ioanna - Elf Paladin regains her feet. *rolls dice* She goes to attack the nearest Bone Knight but Danric kills it before she can strike.

The two Bone Knights from the furthest door close on the group.
One zombie exits the middle room. *rolls dice*
One Bone Knight and Three zombies remain turned in the middle room.

42 - Aleric - Dwarf Cleric - sends his Holy Guardian to face the furthest two Bone Knights.
He checks on the well being of 77 - Aurelia - Elf Cleric, *rolls dice* she is still breathing but in need of immediate aid.

61 - Vanathradil - Elf Mage looks to use his Acid wand on the Bone Knight faced by Danric but sees that there is no need.

65 - Grom Grombly - Half-Orc Shaman - moves to 77 - Aurelia - Elf Cleric side.

34 - Stefareth - Human Necromancer casts Leech Life upon one of the approaching Bone Knights. *rolls dice* It has no effect as the spell is meant for the living, not the undead.

I kneel next to Aurelia and check her for life signs. I'm relieved as she seems to be alive, but I know her life is hanging by a thread. I start praying and the Goddess responds as I feel warmth entering my body, barely noticable at first but quickly raising to almost uncomfortable levels. I put my hand on Aurelia's forehead. There's a small static discharge and immediately I feel the warm energy pouring through my body into my palm, and then into elf's forehead. It takes a moment for all energy to flow through, and after it does I feel dazed, as if hit lightly in the head with a cudgel.

When I regain my senses I look over at dwarf berserker's body and I start praying again, this time for guidance. When Mythara respons I learn the sad truth that deep inside I knew from the beginning: the young dwarf is too far gone, his body shattered beyond repair. "Rest in peace, brother", I say. "May your spirit find its way to the halls of your ancestors".

I look at the elf again to make sure whether she needs any further aid.

tldr
I cast a spell *Heal* on 77 - Aurelia - Elf Cleric and try to wake her up

- Aleric, dwarf cleric

Out of character: Yes, i asked Doc if I could resurrect Catacl1ysm. He told me it's impossible.

Northern side tunnel:

1 - Hummer - Elven Ranger opens fire on the Orcs *rolls dice* His aim is true, two Orcs drop dead.

64 - Kubajz - Halfling Thief moves into the shadows, firing his sling at the Orcs * rolls dice* a slingshot breaks an Orcs arm.

37 - OldNick - Drow Thief while levitating he strikes down at a Bone Knight with his spear *rolls dice* the spear strikes home discharging electricity *rolls dice* The Bone Knight is badly damaged and also stunned by the electric shock.
OldNick heads towards the Orcs but the one undamaged Bone Knight follows.
*rolls dice*
The Bone Knight takes a swing at OldNick as he levitates away *rolls dice* the sword cuts deep into OldNick's side causing his levitate spell to fail and him to fall to the ground.
*rolls dice*
37 - OldNick - Drow Thief hits the ground hard but stays conscious.

1 - Hummer - Elven Ranger drags 36 - Lazarus - Human Berserker to the side and starts bandaging his head and applying healing salves.
*rolls dice*
The Bone Knight that had its legs cut out from beneath it starts dragging itself after Hummer and Lazarus.

16 - Rizzleskiff - Drow Shaman fires her crossbow at the Orcs *rolls dice* another falls asleep.

I'm still unconscious, so my action for this turn remains the same:

***zzzzzZzz *snores* Zzzz***
------------------------------------------
Thanks a lot for the save, I highly appreciate that.
But you've done more than enough, and you should leave to safety — I don't want to drag you down with me.
I was ready for my character's death since last turn — so it's fine, really.

Rizzleskiff stops levitating and bolts North father down the tunnel, hoping to leave the remaining bits of the fight behind.

[56 - Damon - Dwarf Warrior]

Since the wounded elf is unconscious, I follow the suggestion of the elf mage, leaving her to the cure of my trusted new dwarf friend, Aleric.

I put back my potion in my belt, and I quickly prepare myself to attack again.

Throwing my battly cry, I quickly charge one of the bone knights coming from the farthest door that is approaching close to group and I swing again my axe to hit the bones creature

Squee takes up a defensive stance and follows Damon trying to distract the bone knight so Damon can land a finishing blow.

-Squee Male Goblin Thief

Seeing another effective shot dispels Kubajz's dark moods. He feels new energy permeate into his limbs.

Although not knowing much about his fellows cannot left them fight (and dying them) alone. Thinking about all the wine he can buy for treasure he will find there, he tries to sneak behind rest of the Orcs (if there is any capable to attack). Keeping himself still hidden in the shadows. And shooting orcs from behind.

Kubajz - Halfling Thief

Ioanna suddenly kneels down, almost paralyzed... Her head filled with strange, conflicting thoughts. The wound from before suddenly opened and started spurting blood; the plate mail got chipped on that spot and maimed her white, alabaster-like flesh.

Groaning, she falls down completely, with deathly visions dancing before her slowly fading eyes. Calls out a name. Starts spelling "D". The bone knight cleaves her head clean, before even the word could be uttered.

Somewhere, a sleeping prince is having a sickly nightmare. Tears run from his closed eyes and he screams in his sleep; the slumber though, continues.

Ioanna dies permanently. Any Necromancer can possibly gather soul fragments for minion summon, or purifying, then harnessing the energy and buffing the entire party.

I drink the healing potion.

When the Bone Knight reaches me I try to pierce him through one of the eye sockets hoping his head will get shattered.

OldNick - Drow Thief - northern side tunnel.

51 - Henz - Elf Thief

Henz finds out the other zombie hasn't noticed him yet so he took the chance and deliver a back stab

Guys, please wait Doc's answers to my questions before you make a move to the middle room. We may have a chance to end this battle soon.

Is anyone else in the middle room? Can I move to a position where I have a clear line ( I had a premonition that something bad happened in the other tunnels involving a suicidal fireball:) to the middle room and cast a spell in the same turn?

asking for Vanathradil Elf Mage

1 - Hummer - Elven Range - Hummer steps out to meet the legless bone knight with his short sword drawn. Fleet of foot, and lightly armored, Hummer attempts to use his agility to stay at the legless Bone Knight's back, and hack off an arm or two with his sword.
I had a roll of bandages in my belt, and you had a head in need of bandages, it seemed a perfect fit.

Is anybody actually inside of any room? Aren't we all in the main tunnel, fighting enemies that are coming out of these rooms?

Just to confirm: I keep fighting the rest of my enemies of course.
