Sero Flek drank a bunch of clear potions Brannock Genji had, which wracked him with pain. 3 Potions later Brannock Genji handed Sero Flek a potion which caused him to vomit, everyone else is hit with an extremely sweet stench.

Mr Sniffles seems extremely agitated and starts squeaking. Sero Flek is still sickened. Brannock Genji begins to laugh.

Ulfgar Firehands advises us that Mr Sniffles is angry. Samel returns with Alklathix and Brannock Genji tells Samel that the Lizards will be fine.

Tyrus tries to make himself look like a Humanoid Dwagon. It is agreed by all that it would be stretching the imagination to think that Tyrus was actually Imthaikalus.

Ulfgar Firehands agitated “It got away, we need to find it and kill it”. Alklathix says “No doubt it would have gone to lick it's wounds. Once we have faced the rest he should be dealt with swiftly.”

Ulfgar Firehands asks Alklathix how best to persuade the Lizardfolk to stand down. She advises it would take a mightily persuasive arguement.

Tyrus takes Ulfgar Firehands aside and asks if he would be interested in taking the Hat of Disguise and making himself look like an avatar of Hakatim, and convince them to stand down. Ulfgar Firehands agrees; while he's not fond of deception, he is happy to save lives.

Ulfgar Firehands transforms into a half-dragon, this one looking red and armoured in brilliant glowing golden armour, wielding a large flaming greatsword.

Tyrus “Have you cut your hair?”.

Tyrus suggests that the group lay prostrate before Ulfgar Firehands as if worshipping him, Brannock Genji prefers to hide inside a building ready to ambush. He takes Samel & Juxhil with him to prepare for ambush.

Ulfgar Firehands makes his way to the roof of the town hall to stand amongst the flames.

Juxhil looks incredibly amused at this enterprise, grinning widely with her needly teeth.

Gerrant takes off on Bhetsy Buzzcot with a loaded crossbow to attack if necessary. Ulfgar Firehands casts Message to link to Gerrant to get him to advise on the movements of the Lizardfolk. Ulfgar Firehands casts Enlarge Person on himself.

Gerrant advises that the Lizardfolk have split into two groups, the majority heading to the hall with a smaller group heading to a small hill just outside of town.

Sero Flek is singing Ulfgar Firehands's praises, Tyrus looking penitent and Alklathix doing the same when 40-50 Lizardfolk begin cautiously filtering into the square, mostly armed with clubs, some with tridents and better equipped than the others.

Gerrant notices no Brutus, so asks Ulfgar Firehands if he wants him to check the hill, Ulfgar Firehands says yes if he can do it subtly.

Ulfgar Firehands takes a deep breath and begins his oration.

Booming voice: “Klak Shaddock, fellows! You came here led by a great black beast, it called you it's minions and it said it was your god. That was false and it has fled, damaged and borderline dead. It was defeated and I have defeated it. If you stand against me you shall not stand long, so return to your families and live another day!” and points back down towards the swamp with his “greatsword”.

“Now, begone before I turn my wrath upon you!” and shoots a fan of flames into the air above the town square.

It is noteworthy that Ulfgar Firehands rolled a 22 for the first intimidate check, then a NAT 20 for the Burning Hands check.

At this point they've all stopped and turned their heads onto the side. Alklathix steps up and begins another rousing speech in Draconic. The gist of which is the her siblings should "should shed the lies which had been given to them under the guise of the false god and return as one to their encampment and begin rebuilding their culture and absolving themselves of the crimes they have committed against the town.”

The gathered throng is still staring at Ulfgar Firehands, and they turn their attention to Alklathix as she concludes her speech and marches straight through their assembled mass on her way towards the swamp. They take a step back to let her pass, look at Ulfgar Firehands one more time and slowly start turning to follow her. They evacuate the square and as they go Tyrus looks around, giving Ulfgar Firehands a somewhat surprised thumbs up.

As Ulfgar Firehands makes his way down the building it begins collapsing behind him. He tells them Gerrant saw the Lizardfolk going to the hill and suggests they check it out. Samel says “Oh, the shrine!”

Tyrus & Ulfgar Firehands “The Shrine?”

We're told it's a Shrine to Nephe.

Brannock Genji mounts Bhetsy Buzzcot with Samel and they head toward the Shrine, the others hustling over also. Brannock Genji see's better equipped Lizardfolk marching up the hill. They regard Brannock Genji but don't attack him. Brutus is within the Shrine and appears to be alternately stalking around smashing things with a hammer in some sort of extreme rage, and stopping dead to stand still, blanking out. He doesn't react when Brannock Genji hails him.

Brannock Genji comes back and tells the others what he saw.

“Talk dark and armoured? Yeah, he's a bit spazzy isn't he? I mean half the time he's smashing things, but spends the rest of the time looking like a frothy... y'know, one of those people who don't work right and just froth at the mouth”. He advises he has maybe a dozen others with him.

Tyrus advises about the Bestow Curse. Tyrus suggests that Brannock Genji wear the hat and take the appearance of [[DoBrannock Genji ]. Brannock Genji makes a 5'5” version of [[DoBrannock Genji ] and off they go, with Brannock Genji told not to talk.

It is worth noting that Tyrus has not missed the fact that Brutus is smashing up a Shrine of Nephe.

4 guys with clubs, 2 with hide armour and tridents, two with a trident but no hide armor. Chanting coming from the Shrine. One of them with Tridents and no hide casts Bull's Strength on a Armoured and Tridented comrade.

Samel shot one of them, killing him instantly.

Ulfgar Firehands gave them one chance to leave AS he fired his fireball, sending two of those equipped with clubs prone.

Tyrus, Brannock Genji and Gerrant notice additional tridents on those with armour.

Gerrant shoots one of the club-wielders, killing him immediately and running straight up to his partner before giving a disaffected sigh.

Tyrus runs full-pelt towards the shrine, screaming a battle-cry.

Sero Flek casts Cat's Grace.

One of the Lizardfolk attacks Tyrus, trident and claws glancing off his armour, another joining him but similarly ineffective. Brannock Genji charges up behind one of them but is unable to do more.

Juxhil shoots a caster for 3 damage.

As Ulfgar Firehands charges towards casters, one of whom casts Cure Moderate Wounds on his ally, who casts Burning Hands in Ulfgar Firehands's direction doing 10 damage.

Gerrant smacks a club-wielder, killing him.

Tyrus says a “Prayer” to Nephe as he runs just beside the entrance to the Shrine, yelling at Brutus “You. Out. Now!”

Sero Flek walked up to one of the corpses ready to grab a club, firing at the casters fighting with Gerrant.

The armoured tridents attacked Gerrant and Brannock Genji, then Brannock Genji took a full attack at the one who had Bull's Strength cast on him, and had attacked Brannock Genji earlier, nearly killing him and causing him to shout in Draconic.

Juxhil shoots a caster, as does Samel .

Ulfgar Firehands charges the casters, one attacking him with a trident even as his skull is crushed by the charismatic dwarf's hammer, the other casting Burning Hands, scorching Ulfgar Firehands but also being badly battered.

Gerrant attempts to trip one of the Lizardfolk, then Stunning Fists the caster between him and Ulfgar.

Tyrus casts Divine Power, then takes a hit from an armoured lizardfolk before walking right up to Brutus and says “I said. Out.”

One of the armoured Lizardfolk hit Brannock Genji for 6 damage, the other failing to hit Gerrant. Brannock Genji fails to hit the Lizardfolk, as does Juxhil.

Brutus suddenly focuses on Tyrus, blinks and starts looking angry again. Saying in common “You.”, bringing down the hammer for 10 damage (2 of which is acid).

Ulfgar Firehands steps up to flank a caster and swings with his Warhammer, doubling him over which causes Gerrant to miss his strikes.

Tyrus swings twice with his Morningstar, connecting both times and doing a total of 24 damage, leaving Brutus bruised.

Sero Flek kills one of the others, Brannock Genji almost knocking the other over with a one-two swing of his Dwarven Waraxe.

Brutus takes a 5 foot step and swings at Tyrus, doing 42 damage in one shot and saying “I will grind you into the dust of this Temple.”

Many fails and flails, with Tyrus taking another swing for 11 damage to Brutus, the other attack missing.

Juxhil shoots at the one remaining opponent outside.

Brutus leers at Tyrus angrily, his baleful glare burning into the Cleric... then faltering as his eyes unfocus as the curse robs him of the ability to act again.

Gerrant pounds his foot into the Lizardfolk's groin with a sickening crunching sound, it falls to the ground gurgling.

Tyrus took another double-swing with the Morningstar, then stepped back out of the way to make way for Brannock Genji, yelling “Bwannock, I loosened him for you!”. Brannock Genji comes rushing through, racing up to Brutus and brandishing his “staff” at him.

Juxhil shoots Brutus.

Gerrant healed Brannock Genji. Tyrus cast Shield of Faith for +3 deflection bonus to Brannock Genji's AC.

Sero Flek shoots at Brutus and misses, and Brutus steps forward to slam into Tyrus again, knocking him unconscious (-9).

Ulfgar Firehands said “I killed your god and I'll kill you too”, Brutus says “I'll deal with you in a moment”

Ulfgar Firehands reaches out and touches Brutus with a Melee Touch Attack, both rays slamming into him, eldritch fire flashing from the chinks in his armour from within and severely wounding him as he says “No.”

Sero Flek casts Grease on the floor beneath Brutus and he falls over, struggling to his feet as weapons swing around him. He takes a mighty swing at Tyrus, caving his chest in and killing him. He turns to Ulfgar Firehands and says “Now you!”, hitting him with a staggering blow.

Ulfgar Firehands roars with pain and anger and places his hand against Brutus' armour, immolating him inside it.

Brannock Genji drops his axe and walks off. Ulfgar Firehands calling to him “Brannock, we should get Tyrus onto Bhetsy right away, and get him to Eathe as soon as we can to see what they can do for him. He died defending a town from a dragon, defending the Shrine of his god.”

Brannock Genji is unresponsive. Gerrant offers him a slug of ale which he doesn't respond to, and so Gerrant takes it himself.

Gerrant has a look at Brutus who has 20 plain arrows and 5 silvered. Two maroon potions, masterwork armor and heavy shield, magic warhammer of acidic damage. Composite Longbow (masterwork) plain looking dagger. The Lizardmen were carrying Heavy Wooden Shields and Hide Armor (x2) with Six Tridents, Shamans had 2 tridents total.

Gerrant softly talks to himself in Celestial. Samel is standing next to Bhetsy Buzzcot holding her and says hesitantly “Should somebody take this?”. Gerrant has piled the loot from Brutus in the corner and is standing by Tyrus' corpse.

Ulfgar Firehands wails in mourning, throwing flames around (burning out his remaining spells into the sky and general area) goes to grab Tyrus' body and finds Gerrant standing in front of him. “Are you done?” “I'm taking him back to his home” “You can let this go first.” (indicating the increased size of the Dwarf) “I'm small, I can't do it without” “I will help”

Together they haul Tyrus onto Bhetsy Buzzcot , agreeing that Ulfgar Firehands will take him to Eathe while Gerrant gathers the others.

Ulfgar Firehands says to Juxhil “Take care of the rest of them” and heads off.

Gerrant: Keep him here. (indicating Sero Flek) and picks up Brannock Genji's axe, going after him and falling in step with Brannock Genji.

Gerrant speaks to Brannock Genji...
