Chapter 3: Trying Again

[Sir Bedivere]

"You gentlemen should probably not stand directly in front of the horn. Who knows what will appear?" Adding, under his breath, "if anything ..."

(Assuming anyone who needs to move does ...)

"By the way, I should warn you now that I failed music class," Timorel says. Then he directs the horn at the statues and gives a good strong blast with it.

[Solomoriah]

The horn sounded with a low, mournful sound that made Brother Arven's skin crawl. The statues did not respond to it, but after a few moments, the adventurers realized that some of the fallen humans and orcs were arising. They shambled toward the adventurers, maimed, bloody, and with glazed eyes, ignoring the ongoing carnage around them; and the combatants, for their part, ignored the walking corpses.

Fortunately, there appeared to be only four of them...

[jstater]

Grumm: "Fight or flight, gentlemen?"

[Hywaywolf]

"I am starting to like the flight alternative, but lets wait to see if master Timorel can control them."

[Nekron99]

"That does not sound like Grumm "Slayer of Zombies" that I had heard about in the inn!" Arven says grasping his holy symbol. "Timorel, should I try to turn them or do you wish to tempt the fates and try commanding the retched creatures?"

[Sir Bedivere]

Timorel squares his shoulders and commands the zombies "Halt!"

[Solomoriah]

Unfortunately, the zombies did not listen to Timorel...

We're in rounds now. Please state your actions for the first round. You all get initiative, since the opponents are zombies.

[Hywaywolf]

Are they coming from different directions or are they grouped together. If grouped together north south east or west.

Shybolt keeps one eye on the statues as he prepares to meet the coming dead. He will wait to see the results of the cleric's action then attack the nearest undead still around. "Do your best Turning, Cleric."

[Solomoriah]

They are coming from all directions. Well, four directions, anyway.

[Nekron99]

(OOC: not sure if turning is a directed effect, but have always assumed it was 360 degrees. If so I will attempt to turn them, if uni-directional I will turn the ones coming closest, attempting to catch more than one in the AOE.)
Brother Arven holds his Holy Symbol high and speaks in a loud clear voice, "Turn foul creatures, return from hench you came!"
