Virro: (2) With a burst of magical power you pour your will into all of the remaining corpses and giggle slightly with glee as they all return to life. Unfortunately, they have all risen to life AGAINST you and your party and you will have to fight them again. Even worse, you realize they are impervious to your attempts to control them, and they will be impossible to raise again once you have defeated them this second time. Zombies 1, 4, 7 and 8 all return to 'life' and are hostile to the party.

Evard:() Suddenly the room is no longer as safe as it once was and you flee back into the corridor to the North to hopefully become safe.

Uriel: (4) You search the room more thoroughly but find nothing, apart from four corpses Virro has returned from the dead and somehow set them to be hostile to you.

Keegra: (3) Noticing that only two of the six zombies in the room are on your side you freeze as you try to decide whether opening the door is such a good idea or not. A battle on two fronts is not a strategically good move, no matter how much you lust for battle.

Xiv'riit: ()

Kali:() Suddenly the room is no longer as safe as it once was and you flee back into the corridor to the North to hopefully become safe.

Yeleni:() Suddenly the room is no longer as safe as it once was and you flee back into the corridor to the North to hopefully become safe.

Priya: (12) You manage to grab the Greatsword before it's previous owner comes back from the dead, and noticing it doing so you immediately smash your newly obtained Greatsword into it's head repeatedly. Unfortunately on your last bash you drop the weapon and somehow its blade smashes into loads of tiny pieces which fly everywhere. Most of the pieces hit the zombie and finish it off. However several hit you, finding their way between your armour and into your skin (-10 Health). Well at least you still have your Monk's Spade.

Davug: (8) You head over to loot the bodies, and you are able to get to one Zombie and remove its Leather Armour(Light, +2) and Club(+2) before it rises and starts advancing on you in a decidedly unfriendly manner. However you make no effort to defend as your master has not commanded you to.

Shaban: (4) You stumble to a stop way before the door you were meant to stand in as the zombies rise again to face your master and his friends. You hear their call and wonder which side would be better to join... then you remind yourself of your masters complete control over you and you wonder how you had that thought.

Zombie 2: (6 - 2 Cir = 4) You start to shake free of Virro's control as you see your Zombie friend's rise however you are unable to actually do anything.

Zombie 3: (7 -1Inj = 6) You stumble towards the Eastern door as told to, however you don't quite make it, realizing your fellow Zombie under Virro's will has not moved you move yourself to a position that can overlook both doors if need be... the North-Western corner to be precise.

Zombie 1: (9) You get up and advance on Davug who doesn't seem to be actively defending himself. (+1 Cir until Davug starts to defend). Thankfully (for him) he stripped you of your weapons and armour before you were able to attack him.

Fight!: (Zombie 1 gets (18 + 1Cir = 19) vs Davug (2 + 6 + 3Arm +1Cir = 12). Zombie 1 wins, Davug loses 5 Health). The Zombie punches and claws away at Davug seemingly randomly, although this tactic does seem to work.

Zombie 4: (7) Getting up, you charge at the nearest living being, ready to kill. That it is the Shardmind that helped kill many of your fellow Zombies just makes it better.

Fight!: (Zombie 4 gets (18) vs Xiv'riit (13 + 5 + 2Cir = 20) Even whilst still working out hypothetical formulas in the dirt, Xiv'riit is able to capably hold off the Zombie, pushing it away with one hand.

Zombie 7: (4) Surprised at your reanimation and even further surprised by the lack of ownership the elven Necromancer has over you, you scream in what you mean to be joy, but most would describe a rage and begin to work out who you want to kill first.

Room 4: Where once 8 Zombies waited to attack adventurers, now all have fallen prey to a Shardmind and a Half-Orc. The two Zombies killed outright by Xiv'riit's blast of healing magic are now nothing but dust. One of the remaining Zombies have been bought back onto the party's side, another has escaped Virro's control and is now hostile. However the other 4, despite having been stripped of loot, have risen again and are hostile to the party, due to a mistake by Virro. The room itself has three other exits, two on the right hand, West wall, one noticeably nearer than the other, the other exit door is in the East wall two thirds of the way down the room. Where the far wall used to change colour has now been revealed as a secret passageway leading to a door to the South..

Loot in Room 4: Scale Mail(Mail. +3), 2 Leather Armour(Light +2).

She didn't have much time, and she knew it - the other adventurers were probably on their way, and soon they'd get all the best things they could find. She was ready to defend her new greatsword, but at the same time she needed backup, given how recently she'd arrived.

Tasting the scent of two other people incoming, she reared up to full height and looked around. "Finders keepers!" she announced to the room at large, drawing out her s's only slightly. "If anyone wants the other greatsword, now's the time to speak up!"

She had been hoping to join in on this adventure the moment she heard of what was to come, but a lot of preparations and even more bureacracy had delayed her for far too long. She had a lot of ground to cover before even thinking of jumping into what she figured would be a climactic final boss battle.

Her tail curled around the staff of her weapon as she regarded the bodies littering the area. Would they attack her? Did anyone else in this dungeon have the power to resurrect the lifeless corpses? She couldn't tell. She was ready to battle if she had to, but at least there was more than one exit route, and she could easily fight her way through any attempt to block it off.

Thinking nothing of it, Priya tasted the air around her, and decided to head for the secret passageway as soon as she looted this room. Besides, if someone had accessed it recently, their scent trail must still be fresh. With that in mind, she made a beeline for the greatsword - after all, there's no such thing as being too armed...

((Such tools exist, but you're looking in entirely the wrong room for them. It'd be better if you just tried to rez the Zombies. Also Davug can dual wield, there is no inherent disadvantage for doing so, you just lose the ability to carry a shield.))

... begins to try again. Davug sets aside the leather armor, noting that he should give it to one of the zombies just in case, then slings his sword across his back and attaches his Mace to his belt. He goes over to loot the bodies. Virro commands one of the zombies to stand at the Southern and Eastern doors each, hoping they'll be able to serve as some form of guard.

((Thanks for the warning. Davug will pull out both weapons at once, but he doesn't need them now, and holding on to them while searching might actually make it harder.))

Listening intently, she moved closer to the door.

(If the door is open, she peeks through it. If not, she tries to stealthily crack it ajar.)

Virro: (5) You are able to successfully raise one zombie, although you were aiming for two and the second seems to have collapsed in on itself (and definitely won't get back up). Unfortunately for you, the Zombie you raised was both unarmed and unarmoured, and upon closer inspection you realise that its hands are missing the thumbs, making the likelihood of it being able to hold a weapon very low. Still, at least it's one more minion to throw at others, right? Gained Zombie 3

Evard: () Now that the Room is empty, you move up to Room 4

Uriel: (11) You search through One of the two remaining graves, whilst at first glance the corpse resting inside the grave has nothing of note on its person, you notice the buckle of its belt shining oddly. picking it up you examine it, and seeing it is magical you put it on. You feel strength coursing through your veins, and you feel even more competent with your unarmed training than you did before. Unknown to you, the corpse you looted once belonged to a monk of a long forgotten order, and whilst Keegra was fortunate to loot his apprentice's body, you have had the luck to loot the body of a master monk himself. The belt is a Belt of Advanced Monk Training (+3 Dam when unarmed.)

Keegra: (7) Heading over to the eastern door, you can hear part of a conversation going on on the other side of the door. "... you sure?" "Well, it sure sounds quiet out there, and we all felt that burst of healing magic." "Let's get ready anyway. It could be a trap." The voices get quieter as they head away from the door. From the sounds of it the people on the other side of the door may just be friendlies, although you've seen and heard no evidence of a group passing through the Bore-Hole to take on Paarnax before you for quite a while...

Xiv'riit: (4) Awed at the awesome use of your powers over the last couple of turns you start to think of all the different ways you could possibly use this, if you can tap into it again that is. Using the dirt you start to scribble down some equations and hypotheses and try to solidify your understanding of what happened and to work out if you could use this to advance clerical skills the world over, assuming you survive of course.

Kali () Now that the Room is empty, you move up to Room 4

Yeleni: () Now that the Room is empty, you move up to Room 4

Priya: ()

Daug: (7) You manage to successfully loot the final grave. Although there is no corpse inside it, there is a set of Leather Armour(+2) and a Mace(+2). The Armour is worse than what you currently have, but the Mace is better than your old longsword, and unless your Master asks otherwise you'll be using your newly found mace as well from now on.

Shaban: (7) You go and obediently stand in the corner.

Zombie 2: (9- 2Cir = 7) You successfully stay under Virro's control, although for some reason you feel like you've only just been placed here...

Zombie 3: (6) You shuffle around uncertain of what to do now that you've fallen under the control of this elven mortal. You don't see one of your old fellows and stub your toe on him (-1 Inj, 4 Turns Remaining)

Room 4: Where once 8 Zombies waited to attack adventurers, now all have fallen prey to a Shardmind and a Half-Orc. The two Zombies killed outright by Xiv'riit's blast of healing magic are now nothing but dust, however the other six still lay on the ground, able to potentially be resurrected. The room itself has three other exits, two on the right hand, West wall, one noticeably nearer than the other, the other exit door is in the East wall two thirds of the way down the room. Where the far wall used to change colour has now been revealed as a secret passageway leading to a door to the South..

Loot in Room 4: [Leather Armour(Light +2), Club(+2)] Zombie 1, [Hide Armour(Light, +1)] Zombie 4, [Scale Mail(Mail. +3), Greatsword(+2)] Zombie 8. (12 graves which may be lootable, 8 of which are open obviously the ones from which the Zombies came from) All grave plots count as having been looted.

If no one else appeared to be ready to move, it would do no one any good for the healer to pass up a chance to search for armor.

...and being the Munchkin card game player he is, Uriel loots the room some more

As he searches the graves, he says, "Check graves, more loot. Should be ready before next room."

He pauses, then says, "I suppose it was to be expected. Very well. I shall begin raising those in the graves." He moves to do so. Meanwhile, Davug begins searching the room and empty graves for necromantic tools Virro might find useful. Failing that, he will look for armor Virro can use. Shaban stands in a corner and looks at the wall at Virro's command. Perhaps it was a bad zombie?

[Virro begins working on raising other zombies. Davug loots the graves, and Shaban stares at a wall.]

"Keegra also find belt. Keegra keep belt." Keegra made sure the belt was secure around her waist before setting the leather armor and club on the ground. She tucked the teeth trophies safely away in her furs and went to the eastern door, tapping her foot impatiently. "Small-man and rock-men and squid-one coming?

Virro: (8) You manage to successfully use your Necromantic heritage to bring Zombie 2 under your control, however you feel that what is left of its mind is resisting you and you fear you shall not be able to control it forever, and once it does escape your control you will not be able to try and take control of it again.

Evard: ()

Uriel: (10) You loot two of the graves, Besides the remains of two elves in both of them you find a pair of Clubs(+2) and two sets of Leather Armour(+2). Swinging one of the clubs to test it out, you accidentally hit the odd-coloured part of the Southern wall of Room 4 and watch in surprise as the illusion collapses, the corridor continues South for a small bit before stopping at a door with the number 10 on it.

Keegra: (10) Despite how much you want to loot the bodies, there is still a zombie next to you, You decide to smash it to death quickly and THEN loot the bodies. (Fight!: Keegra gets (20 + 4Dam = 24) vs Zombie 2 gets (11 + 6 + 2Arm = 19) Keegra does 5 Damage, Zombie 2 dies) Quickly stomping the Zombie into the dirt (literally) you set about looting, picking up a nice number of teeth (11) from the dead Zombies. Leaning down to loot the now-deceased Zombie, you take it's Leather Armour(+2) and its Club(+2) before noticing its belt, unstrapping it from around its waist and picking it up you feel the magic coming from it. Putting it on you discover it is a Belt of Monk Training(+1Dam when unarmed), normally used by novice monk's who are training to make their fists the deadly force that yours are.

Xiv'riit: (11) Noticing Keegra's continued assault on the Zombie you try to use your healing prowess to aid her. Your magic almost seems to be expecting this and another powerful burst of healing magic goes through the area, affecting those in the starting room, the Orc barracks and the Zombie cemetery as well as the corridor that links the three. (Everyone in the area gains 4 Health, apart from Undead who lose 4 Health, this health can go beyond a persons normal max health.)

Yeleni: ()

Priya: () Having heard of the group of adventurers planning to conquer the Bore-Hole and beat Paarnax, you headed out from your homeland to join them. Unfortunately you arrive after they had set out and you have always been behind until now. Entering into the starting room, you barely notice the members of the party still in the room, or the fact that the door behind you has slammed shut and seemingly melded back into the wall again. Scampering down the corridor you find yourself in front of Room 4.

Orc Bodyguard (9) Having not been given an order you continue to watch the Half-Orc at work.

Zombie Orc Bodyguard: (8) Shaben waits for its Masters orders.

Room 4: Where once 8 Zombies waited to attack adventurers, now all have fallen prey to a Shardmind and a Half-Orc. The two Zombies killed outright by Xiv'riit's blast of healing magic are now nothing but dust, however the other six still lay on the ground, able to potentially be resurrected.

So come and join the 'fun'. I'll edit Round 9 to include you in. You'll be spawning in Room 4 with Random Equipment.

Name: Priya Kadru

Gender: Female

Race: Lizardman - Dry Skin - Tough Scales

Class: Fighter - Weapons Master

Health: 25 (15 + 10)

Anything Else: Priya is more snakelike than other lizardmen, having a relatively long neck, short but strong arms, and a serpentine lower half with vestigial back legs; she has to rear up, cobra-style, to "stand" at eye-level to people. Priya can subdue her enemies via constriction and a powerful bite, though as a Weapons Master, her preferred weapon is a monk's spade with both blades honed to razor-sharp edges; given her short arm-reach, she often wields it using her muscular, prehensile tail.

Magnificent- a kind of chain reaction. . . Noting the effect of its magic on the undead creatures, Xiv'riit ran to the nearest zombie and laid its hands on it. "Xiv'riit is thinking you look decrepit, friend. Allow it to help."

((Heal the zombie!))

-And that is loot the room!

"Keegra smash zombies! Zombies dead... again!" She thumped herself on the chest and stooped to loot the bodies.

"This is why I prefer living soldiers," he remarks. "They are so much less prone to error and far more durable... most of the time." He strides into the other room and begins attempting to bring the zombie under his spell, and Davug stands by, ready to intercept and destroy the zombie should it attack the Elf.

Virro: (7) Concentrating on your magic you are able to draw the lifeforce of the dead Orc back into its body. Unfortunately not everything worked as planned as your new Undead Orc Bodyguard seems to have lost quite a few grey cells and is now unable to use any weapon effectively. Also, you know that as an undead he is not able to get any of the skills Orcs normally get. Gained Undead Orc Bodyguard.

Evard: ()

Uriel: (7) You find a pair of bagpipes and go and pick them up, someone obviously thought that with the awful noise they made they were a weapon. Unfortunately, if anything playing the bagpipes is more likely to get you attacked by enemies, not less (they know if you're playing the bagpipes you can't defend yourself as well). Gained Bagpipes (-1 Cir in combat when equipped).

Keegra: (10 - 3Inj =7) Letting out a roar you charge into the group of zombies, the first to feel your wrath isn't armed and only wears some rags on his back.

Fight!: (Keegra vs Zombie 3. Keegra gets (17 + 4 Dam = 21) vs Zombie 3 (3 + 6 = 9) Zombie 3 loses 12 Health. Zombie 3 dies). Smashing one Zombie into the dust as a burst of healing magic flows through you, you feel stronger and ready to take on another Zombie, this one is also unarmed and wears only basic ragged clothing. (Keegra vs Zombie 7. Keegra gets (19 + 4 Dam = 23) vs Zombie 7 (12 + 6= 18) Zombie 7 loses 5 Health.) Between your fists and the burst of healing magic, Zombie 7 falls as well. With one strike left in you, you turn towards a slightly tougher opponent, this Zombie is dressed in some cheap looking hide armour. (Keegra vs Zombie 4. Keegra gets (14 + 4 Dam = 18) vs Zombie 4 (5 + 6 + 1 Arm = 12) Zombie 4 loses 6 Health, Zombie 4 dies). With fists of fury you strike it again and again until you realize there is little left of it.

Xiv'riit (11) Noticing Keegra still limping slightly as she charged into the zombies, you focus your healing magics and let them loose. Not only do you heal Keegra's ankle just before she starts fighting, you also let loose a slightly uncontrolled burst of healing magic that spreads out around you. You feel stronger and you are sure Keegra and the Orc Bodyguard are feeling better as well. As most people know, what is good for the living is not good for the undead and your erratic burst of magic damages them all, killing two outright, and letting Keegra finish off two more. (Zombies 2-8 lose 8 Health, Keegra, Orc Bodyguard, Xiv'riit gain 8 Health, all injuries cured before battle.)

Entering into the starting room, you barely notice the members of the party still in the room, or the fact that the door behind you has slammed shut and seemingly melded back into the wall again. Scampering down the corridor you find yourself in front of Room 4.

Orc Bodyguard (6) You make it to the door, but seeing the Half-Orc taking on the zombie quite capably by herself you decide to stop and stare, I mean watch her.

Zombie Orc Bodyguard: (7) Shaben successfully gets up this time.

Zombie 2: (4) Noticing the Half-Orc tear through its fellow zombies with the aid of magic, Zombie 2 stands still in fright. Hoping to be mistaken for anything but a Zombie.

Zombie 8: (7) Zombie 8 decides the best things to do is to attack. And with Keegra being the only viabe target, it decides that to try and gett revenge for its comrades.

Fight!: (Zombie 8 vs Keegra. Zombie 8 gets (1 + 2 Dam = 3) vs Keegra gets (10 + 6 = 16)). Hardly even aware of the Zombie trying to attack her, Keegra stretches lazily from her round of killing and mayhem and manages to snag herself yet another kill as her fist connects with the zombie and kills it.

Room 4: Where once 8 Zombies waited to attack adventurers, now all bar one had fallen prey to a Shardmind and a Half-Orc. The two Zombies killed outright by Xiv'riit's blast of healing magic are now nothing but dust, however the other five still lay on the ground, able to potentially be resurrected. The room itself has three other exits, two on the right hand, West wall, one noticeably nearer than the other, the other exit door is in the East wall two thirds of the way down the room. The far wall changes colour for a little bit roughly opposite the door you entered through.

"Shaben always was fool," he says.

Virro files away this information, then says, "Nevertheless, this is not a complete loss. I do try to have a second plan ready, just in case the first goes sour." He pulls out a variety of tools from his belt and exchanges his black gloves for a set of dark red ones. He begins attempting to resurrect the fallen Orc. The living Orc decides his time would be better spent helping his new allies, and turns to walk through the door and begin fighting the undead. "Davug!" Virro calls after him. "If you would be so kind, try not to end the undead unless it's necessary. I believe I can use them once I'm done here." Davug nods and proceeds to the other room, ready to fight.

[Virro attempts to resurrect the Orc on the ground, Davug (A.K.A. Orc Bodyguard, then Orc Bodyguard 1, then just Orc Bodyguard again,) goes to the other room to fight the zombies. I think it's zombies. He tries to incapacitate rather than completely destroy, but if it comes down to him or the zombie, it's the zombie that's gonna die.]
