       [Recap]

         From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions]
           Ignoring the horrible smells Z'leyra attacks the
           shapechangers offensively.
         GM: Ack. But avoiding smells that you have a STRONG phobia against
             is not just saying 'ignore'.  Not that simple.  So need to
             elaborate on this simple method.

         From Mae: [Re: Actions]
           Maelorna can hear one other than Shifter #2 yell out a...

           "Again love," she commands him indicating Shifter #4 who ...
         GM: Ack.

       [New Stuff]

           [Febris 9th, 1635TH]
           [Time: 5:01 pm]
           [Unknown Location]
           [Audience Room - Current room]

           [Phase 7]

             Fremea feeling wounded flies away and then turns around
           holding her dagger she does a hit and run attack.  But the
           blade is too high as she weaves away avoiding any close
           contact range with the bull-shifter.

             Maelorna can hear one other than Shifter #2 yell out a threat.
           'Are you kidding me, another braggart?, she thinks to herself,
           while giggling playfully as Zin goes to work tearing Shifter
           #4's flesh asunder. "Again love," she commands him indicating
           Shifter #4 who still seems to have a little life left, if the
           twitching of his body is an indication.

             She sighs as her delight in seeing the shifter #4 dying is
           interrupted and she gives a sideways glance at the female, the
           one that appears to be Z'layha, the girl is obviously wanting
           the dagger in her hand, if based upon the yammering she's doing
           and gesturing at it.  'Get your own weapon' she thinks as she
           turns her attention from the human and back to Zin, ignoring
           her, while watching him play with her meal.

             'Again, I want more.  I want it all!' the ever present voice
           calls out.  Maelorna knows she's full, but the hunger is still
           there, why?' she questions, 'As the words she spoke to Lucria
           spring forth and she mentally curses, the promise she made was
           broken, was she the monster, the demon she looked like?  There
           would be no taking it slow and easy with the group if they
           survived this, as she would only be a monster in their eyes,
           even if she tried to hide herself within the human shell of her
           other half.  She can only hope to end the shifters one at a
           time if she has to, leaving Zin for last 'We already know how
           to deal with him little one, just keep him enthralled with you.'
           the voice promises.

             The cold anguish of the hunger rears it's head again and she
           doesn't want to stop, she coos softly, attempting to feed upon
           the last vestiges of life from the fallen shifter, wanting it
           to perish.

             But Mae realizes she is too far to drain from the shifter.

             Unali kneels and stabs the dying shifter over and over
           ensuring it is dead.  Shifter's #4 natural healing, reforming
           its body back, ends and the creature does not seem to be moving.

             Shifter #3 turns both of his claws toward Fuk and swipes
           at the constable.  The first claw misses but the second
           tears a nasty line across his chest drawing blood.

             Shifter #2 tries to extend it's arms to grab Fremea
           from the air but the blasted thing is too fast and she
           dodges him easily.

             Zin sees the shifter dead and lumbers toward Mae for
           new orders.  A odd look crosses his face at seeing Mae.

             Kiet sees no one stopping and using his hand-spike
           he glares and then stabs Kell in the side.  The strength
           of Kiet rips through flesh and ribs.  Kell gasps and
           realizes his lung has just been pierced.  Kiet releases
           Kell and tosses him to the ground limp.

             Arawn seeing Kell fall changes his plans.  It is too
           late to cast a spell but he reaches up bringing his
           Cryx crested finger-blade toward Kiet.  Arawn does a
           fake swipe and then thrusts it right at Kiet's chest.
           The Cryx seems to sparkle and shimmer on contact.  Arawn
           considers his options.  He requests the shifter be gone
           or formed into shaper-material like the finger.  But it
           must take time as this is a larger mass.

             Mournath stabs toward shifter #3 with his spear but the
           creature sees it and his body seems to flinch away by
           reflex.

             Z'leyra can't stand the smells.  She darts back and
           forth trying to find a no-smell area.  But ends up in
           the same place.  The dust, the sweat, the sulfur and
           body odors is causing her spine to ache!  She raises her
           great sword and considers chopping off her nose but that
           would make even bigger places to smell.  She holds her
           nose but knows she has to use both hands for her sword.
           Z'leyra notice Kell fall and knows that might smell very
           bad the stink of death!  But her brain tells her to help
           him to save him.  But then those half-elves do smell something
           fierce!

             Fuk stabs shifter #3 with his sword doing 3 points of
           damage to his lower abdomen.

             Pyan stabs Shifter #3 but the blade seems to bounce off
           the shifter's skin.

             Dorhak swings his mace at Shifter #3 doing 14 poitns
           of damage as it sheds bits of 'flesh' from the creature.

             Z'layha stares at Mae and wonders why she is ignoring
           her.  She glances at her sister who seems to be acting
           a bit crazy.


           [Phase 8]

             Z'layha prepares a spell and plans to get her dagger
           back.  She speaks the quick words and gestures right
           at Mae.  The Death Blast hits Mae causing her to
           immediately drop.  Mae's spirit is thrown out of her
           body and spirals away but no one can see it.  The
           now comatose Mae lays on her back staring up at the
           cave ceiling.

             Fremea does another hit and run head with her dagger
           but fails to strike the shifter again.

             Unali watches Mae fall and shrugs.  A woman does
           have favor on her own daggers.  As she twirls the
           magical dagger in her own hand.  She turns and moves
           north west to help Arawn and the others.

             Shifter #2 extends one long arm instead of two short
           ones reforming his hands.  He slams the one arm against
           Fremea as she tries to fly away.  The Fae is slammed
           against the west wall face first and slides down the
           rock wall a bit dazed.  The shifter smiles knowing he
           has her now!

             Shifter #3 who was just hit by Dorhak twists and turns
           toward the dwarf.  It reforms into four arms.  With two
           he slaps the mace from the dwarf's hands.  With the other
           hands he grabs the dwarf and raises him high above over his
           head.  Turning with the Dwarf the shifter moves to the
           north wall.  As he moves he looks up now understanding
           the dwarf's language through the genetic contact, then
           says "a short wait."  Then grins at the joke.  Getting
           to the wall he extends his free arm and taps the stone
           button to open the 'stone window'.  He then twists and
           turns forcing the dwarf backwards and then forwards. He
           does this three quick times and then tosses the dwarf out
           of the window.  "It's just a short drop!"  He yells out
           the window and waves his free hands.

             Zin's face contorts and seems to have his eyes glaze
           over and back to normal and glaze again.  Being so
           close to the seductress is too much.  "I want to be one
           with you!"  He says and then kneels over the comatose
           Mae.  He begins to grow more arms and organs he saw in
           the minds of others used for sexual reproduction according
           to the other minds.  He mounts the comatose Mae and
           begins to thrust hard.  As he does one of his hands
           begins to from a shaft and enters her mouth.  But as
           the thrusting gets heavy Zin's entire body seems to
           shift and dissolve upon Mae as it begins to melt onto
           Mae and try to merge with the human.

             Kiet at the same time stares at Arawn now seeing him
           with ease.  As the Cryx begins to spark Kiet forms a
           hole around it into a open space.  Making the item
           useless.  Then at the same time he yells, "it is time
           we leave!"  He extends one arm and his pincher wraps
           around Arawn's throat holding him in place.  With his
           other hand he forms a pry with two large fingers and
           pierces Arawn's throat.  Ready to force pry further
           and take off the Alfar's head.

             Confused Mournath sees Dorhak tossed out the window
           as if the dwarf has nothing but shortcomings.  Well he
           is short.  Turning he wonders if he can take the
           shifter alive or die as Dorhak surely has.

             Z'leyra lowers her sword knowing that would be a useless
           gesture.  She comes up with another idea!  she kneels down
           and scoops up sand in her hand and stuffs her nostrils.
           The smell is awful.  But at least she can't smell anything
           else for a short.  She finishes her stuffing of her nose
           with dirt and stands ready to fight.  Then sneezes causes
           a cloud of sand to fall out.  The smell of her own sneeze
           is like a outhouse after noon!

             Fuk rushes forward to attack the shifter that just dwarf
           tossed the small one out.  He thrusts into his back his
           sword doing 6 points to his 'back'.

             Pyan looks at Kiet who is grabbing something but
           can't see.  What is Kiet doing?

             Dorhak outside begins his descent.  He curses and
           curses as he falls.  He didn't realize this was a
           tall mountain.  Did that shifter just make a  joke of
           his height?  No one insults dwarves like that and lives!
           But he did say it was a short fall but it seems to
           go on and on.  Far below he sees a lava lake and sees
           a bit of dry land.  Maybe he can flap his arms and
           land there instead of the lava!  He begins to flap and
           flap as he flails his legs. Only a short time left he
           sees the ground rush up.  But no!  He'll miss the
           land and will hit the lava.  Maybe he can land on the
           shield and leap to the land?  He twists his arm around
           and puts his shield downward. Splash he impacts the
           lava.  But then he realizes his legs are too high up
           and moving toward the lava.  He twists to do as that
           traitor Kiet does and use a acrobatic move.  It works!
           He lands with his toes only hitting the edge as he
           tries to stand awkwardly o the shield.  Now to only
           leap to safety only 3 feet away.  Then a rock that was
           dislodged when he fell from the 'window' hits him in
           the head and he falls flat backwards.

             Z'layha walks forward and grabs her dagger from Mae's
           limp hand.  She grunts as if to say 'I did ask.'

           [Phase 9]

           Actions? Comments?

           Next Update.. Saturday?

           GM: Ok!  This isn't good folks.  Very bad rolls for
               party.  Maybe you should've listened to Kiet's
               warning and just stop?  I have something to do
               Tue/Wed so next update is Saturday.  I hope you
               guys come up with some good actions!

           GM: Arawn - Never listed what was going to be done once
                Cryx hits Kiet?  I wasn't sure if you'd want to help
                Kell or not.  You are probably next phase to death
                if he just inserts his 'fingers' and twists.

               Dorhak:  Sorry man.  When you have a being that has tons
                 more strength then you and just man-handles err dwarf
                 handles you there is not much to do.  I did roll to
                 see if he'd just tear you apart or use the window
                 and it rolled window.  Sorry not much I can do to
                 stop that.  Bad fate roll.  I did roll to see if
                 there was a CHANCE to escape as above.  But you
                 were 2% off.  It was so darn close.  I am truly
                 sorry man.  I hate to do this to you a new player.
                 Maybe you can be darth vader?  Maybe Arawn can
                 restore you and rebuild you?  We can try that?

               Fremea - You are badly dazed.  Keep in mind you do
                 move before him.  But there is a chance the dazed
                 thing will prevent flight.

               Kell - Mark where are you!?  If you don't get help
                 soon.  Maybe if the others had stopped.  There
                 is hope but would need a healer asap.  We can
                 hope at least.  If you were here it'd help as well.

               Unali - I assume go after the shifter by window or
                 go help Arawn - but you can't see him.  But can see
                 the sparks of the Cryx.

               Mae - There is hope if get help.  Shamans who can
                 reattach the spirit.  But if only just handed
                 over her dagger?  Ironically there are two shamans
                 here the one that just took you out and Z'leyra.
                 So there is hope!  Though if you become-one with
                 Zin too fast then well it might be a problem.  You
                 are comatose so mental control is out of Zin.  We'll
                 see if the shamns help you next phase.
