Summary:
An epic battle, another nearly deadly fall, and TREASURE!
Description
Tense moments as the party’s Cleric falls into the same hole that the Rogue discovered, but with much more dire results: significant damage from the fall and alerting the large lizard living in the room, which promptly took a sizable bite out of the wounded man. He was pulled to safety while his compatriots held off a flood of Hobgoblins at the entrance to a hallway. Hidden archers made life difficult, and nearly over, for some of the party members, and when the Hobgoblins were lessened in numbers, they moved to a more tactically advantageous set up, mercilessly taking longbow shots at the adventurers who dared risk exposure. Once Rich and Spiv risked advancing, Erathis took the chance to scale the crypt to harass the Archers and remaining Soldier from a different direction. Instead he was knocked ten feet to the ground, wounded, prone and vulnerable to the archers above. The party eventually prevailed, but the toll was high, as their strength to push on was failing. They did not flee once they discovered several magical items in the room, including a shield borne by the tougher Soldier and a powerful wand that boosts the controlling feature of the Wizard staple, Magic Missile.
