The heroes (Maedhros, Torr, Idky, Squattingbeaver, Lowdog, Stephen, and Aine with Dresher) continue their battle outside of Marthasville.
After shouting that he'll cover Idky, Torr takes the cleric's foe, freeing him to cast protection from evil, 10'. Two blows slay the gargoyle and the bat demon threatening Idky. Lowdog kills two enemies as well, including a bat demon on Maedhros. Maedhros turns the remaining ghouls, and the one carrying Aine drops her. The group gets swarmed by the incoming goat demons, but the protection spell acts as a hedge so that really only Torr and Aine are at risk.
One of the lumnous moon-clan goat demons buries an axe in the hapless witch while she's down, nearly killing her outright and leaving a terrible scar on her leg. They fairly pounce on Torr, who has his back to them due to his efforts with Idky. While many demons swarm into melee, several cannot and two of the goat demons pull out bows to shoot. Maedhros gets dropped by an arrow and another goes into Idky.
At this point, a ghoul, two skeletons, and two more goat demons arrive. Squattingbeaver pulls Maedhros into the protection from evil and casts cure light wounds on him to get him up to turn. Unfortunately, Maedhros is on fire, which burns the shaman. Lowdog goes to take on the demon on Aine, stunning it.
Stephan gets up after being healed. Torr steps just inside the protection and starts whaling on the goat demons. Idky blinds three of the goat demons with sundazzle, including one of the bowmen. Another demon pulls out a bow, missing 'Beaver twice (wow, he must be a TERRIBLE shot...!).
The new goat demons rush up and start shooting arrows. The ghoul and skeleton rush the group, one ghoul and one skeleton attacking Idky, another skeleton attacking Stephan.
Seven goat demons and three skeletons arrive. Torr takes the foes off Idky so he can sundazzle a group of bowmen goat demons, and three are blinded. Maedhros stands up and Beaver drinks his potion of mass destruction.
One skeleton attacks Maedhros and fumbles. Lowdog gets shot from behind. Idky gets shot twice more. Three skeletons run up to attack Beaver, only one landing a hit. Barely on his feet, the shaman endures.
A ghoul, a shadow, four skeletons, and two demons show up.
Beaver lets loose with mass destruction, doing a whole ten points of damage. Ooooww! Somewhere some kobolds become nervous...the mighty shaman then passes out. However, the blast of spiritual energy clears a number of the demons and stuns a bunch of others. Maedhros turns or destroys all the undead, leaving mostly stunned demons. The battle begins to turn.
Lowdog kills the one non-stunned demon as Torr rushes the goat demon bowmen, leaving the circle of protection in the hopes of drawing off the remaining foes and because it's the easiest way to keep destroying demons.
Five skeletons and two red goat demons show up. Torr starts mowing through the non-blinded bowmen. Lowdog cure lights himself to stop his bleeding arm, now that he's soaked in his own blood. Maedhros pulls Aine into the protection and cure lights her and uses her body to shield her from being attacked by a skeleton, which hits him.
Maedhros then gets taken out by a bowman and Idky gets shot at. Torr is completely surrounded by demons and skeletons, although his armor and holy aura largely protect the paladin. Lowdog takes out one of the bowmen. Idky parries the skeleton so as not to breach the protection that's keeping the demons from rushing his fallen comrades.
Another ghoul and a skeleton appear. Not many foes are left in this section of the city...! Lowdog takes the skeletons off Idky so he can cure serious Maedhros, getting slightly burned in the process. 'Beaver comes to but is still stunned. Idky takes arrows from other bowmen. The ghoul attacks Torr from behind as the new skeleton tries to get at him too. In fact, several skeletons just begin to swarm around the young paladin, waiting for a chance to strike as demon after demon falls.
Five more skeletons and a red goat demon show up. Maedhros gets up. Lowdog finishes off the skeleton menacing the group inside the protection. Idky cure lights Aine, but it still doesn't bring her up
The newly-arrived skeletons mass on Torr as the new red goat demon slams into the protection. A stone-colored goat demon shows up. Aine gets cure light from Idky, bringing her up.
Lowdog starts leaping around the field slaughtering the bowmen
Maedhros manages to dust a whole one skeleton. Oooo! Somewhere a 1st level party is looking for a new cleric...!
And then he manages to dust another four. He's just having a field day here. Idky casts deaths door on Stephan. One skeleton moves to attack Lowdog. Idky casts cure light on Stephan, bringing him up. Maedhros dusts four skeletons. Lowdog gets surrounded by skeletons. 'Beaver and Idky gets hit by arrows. One skeleton attacks Aine and misses her, as she dives to heal her familiar, Dresher.
A new-looking demon (looking like a cross between a human an rhinoceros) and another goat demon show up. Maedhros dusts 9 skeletons, making up for his previous attempts entirely. Beaver takes goodberries to heal up. Lowdog clears off his foes.
Idky sundazzles the two incoming demons, blinding them. Of course, that's when Torr gets taken out by a crit by a big-boy skeleton. Blood starts spurting out of him and the young paladin collapses into a pool of his own blood.
A single moon-clan goat demon shows up. 'Beaver suggests that Idky move up closer to Torr so the group in the protection can be closer to assist, and they all move. Lowdog jumps into the midst of Torr's melee to save the hapless and helpless warrior, taking on skeletons. Maedhros clears out the remaining regular skeletons. 'Beaver medicine herbs Torr, as Stephan keeps the ghoul off him. The ghoul takes Stephan out. Idky gets hit by arrows.
Two rhino demons and five skeletons arrive. 'Beaver rushes the bowman. Maedhros dusts the skeleton. Aine casts forget on another of the bowmen. Idky cure lights himself
One rhino demon charges 'Beaver, nearly taking him off. Another charges Lowdog, damaging him.
Maedhros takes out the last bowman with a volley of magic missiles. 'Beaver continues to take on the moon goat demon, nearly taking him out. Aine casts forget on one of the rhino demons, stopping it in its tracks. Torr comes conscious and he lays hands on himself, as Idky cure criticals him, bringing him up and totally functional after his heart had been pierced...!
Beaver gets taken out by the moon goat demon. One rhino slams into the protection spell (he forgot it was there!). Two more rhinos and four skeletons arrive.
Aine tries to forget the demon standing over Beaver's prone body, but it doesn't work. Maedhros dusts the incoming skeletons. The moon goat demon on Beaver moves to attack Lowdog.
One skeleton shows up, which Maedhros destroys. Torr jumps in to help Lowdog as Idky brings Stephan up with a cure light.
As the monsters attack Torr, the paladin notices something invisible attempt to hit him. He kills it and a rhino demon. Lowdog clears out the rest of the demons.
Maedhros runs over to cure light 'Beaver. Another invisible demon attacks Torr, so Maedhros casts detect invisible to see the slow-moving demons coming in. Aine changes from eating popcorn to bonbons.
Idky slings and hits one of the invisible demons as Torr kills two more. Lowdog continues working on the skeleton.
Two more invisible things come, and Maedhros announces their position. Maedhros attacks and misses one at the edge of the protection. Aine continues to do the bored housewife watching soap operas and eating bonbons thing that she does so well with her ugly scarred deformed leg.
Torr and Lowdog finish off the demons.
Beaver noticed that when these demons died, their spirits didn't rise out of their bodies like normal demons. It was as if the spirits had nothing to do with the bodies. Once the bodies stop bubbling, they turn into skeletons and zombie bodies.
Beaver casts speak with spirits, and they explain that this was such a sacrilege. The spirits of good people from the city were stuffed into the bodies of other dead citizens. It is the vilest of all types of necromancy.
