Daggoth moves cautiously forward and then spits his cold breath at the large gargolye. It doesn't seem to have the full effect and only hurts the creature for 7 damage now (resist 5 cold).

The gargoyle responds to Daggoth's attack by winging down and grabbing him for 11 damage and 5 on going cold damage. Daggoth quickly jabs the creature in the belly for 29 damagestrikebacks on A (1d20+21+1=36, 1d12+15=24). The other enemy swoops over and plucks Hedoni off the ground for 9 damage.

Ravenblade ducks past Daggoth and accosts the gargoyle hovering just above.

Minor: HQ garg A
Move: N14, no OA from flank on the run feat
Standard: Cut and Run garg A, AC, base hit 20/19, +1 24h, +1 second attack for running attack bonus. Base dam 13/12, +4 bloodied, +5 Daggoth. After the first attack, Rav will shift from N14 to M13. (1d20+21=25, 1d10.minroll(3)+22=28, 1d20+22=42, 1d10.minroll(3)+21=26, 1d20+21=30, 1d10.minroll(3)+22=32, 1d20+22=24, 1d10.minroll(3)+21=24)
Crit extra damage (avalanche): and knocked prone (2d10=11)
HQ bonus: maxed at 12 due to the crit

OOC: I accidentally doubled all the attacks and noticed I added one extra to hit on the second attack (avalanche). I still hate having two differently leveled weapons for this reason. Emily, in future please give Rav both his upgraded weapons simultaneously. I don't mind waiting longer to get them, but I seriously downgraded Rav's item complexity (and made his attacks weaker) to help avoid this sort of thing.
In any case, I think the first attack is a miss (25 AC). The second attack in the list is a crit for 31+11+12=54 damage and knocked prone. Rav ends at M13.

With his stone, Mal can see that the gargoyle is weakest in Will and is vulnerable to fire. He charges at the smaller enemy, his glaive leaving a huge melting gash in the creature for 26 damage (vulnerable 10 fire).

Hedoni struggles in the gargoyle's grasp, but can wriggle free. His magical swarm of insects swirls around the two enemies, dropping the smaller gargoyle.

Daggoth moves up and throws a hammer for 19 damage. The fighter shakes off the lingering cold.

The gargoyle encases Hedoni in ice.

Undaunted by the growing ice, Ravenblade comes up to the gargoyle. He misses twice.

Mal approaches and with Lady Luck on his side, he slashes his glaive through the ice. for 32 damage -20 resist all.

Hedoni, barely able to do more than breath, stays still in the ice.

Murrak gives Hedoni another save. Hedoni is able to break free from the ice but left slowed and weakened. Then Murrak throws his hammer with perfect aim.

Daggoth charges at the gargolye and slips and nearly drops his weapon (flub).

Daggoth's stance allow him to get in 11 damage to the gargoyle. The enemy strikes back at the fighter, but due to unbreakable only takes 2 damage and feel 5 vulnerable to cold.

Salazar uses burning spray but his spell fizzles out.

Ravenblade draws on Mal's luck and gets in one good hit for 24 damage. Careful to keep the creature alive, this last blow defeats the gargoyle without permanently damaging him.

The group gains 8,000 experience.

You move through the secret door and into a treasure chamber. After collection some magical equipment, you decipher a puzzle on the wall depicting the draconic story of creation.

In the beginning there was a distinction between the Shadow Void, the known multiverse, and the First Void, the hidden domain of pre-creation. In the First Void, Io existed alone. There was nothing else, and until Io willed it there could be nothing else.

The world-shaper’s first child was Vorel, a small, simple, yet beautiful dragon, perfect in scale and form. However, this first dragon had no passion or desire and was content with all its completeness.

Next was created a pair of powerful children, twins, male and female, the world-shapper created them: Tiamat and Bahamat, each with keen minds and lofty spirita. However, instead of allies, the two grew to be rivals. Yet the creator could not choose a favorite between them, for they each had their own strength and beauty. Instead, the world-shapper brought forth a myriad of lesser children, again and again fusing elemental energy with mortal form and soul.

Then in the Dawn War, Vorel was killed easily in its complacency. Then, distracted and weakened by grief by the loss of a child, Io was slain by the King of Terror. At the world-shapper's defeat, the twins received the divine spark from their parent and together triumphed over the King of Terror.

At the Dawn War's conclusion, Tiamat pursued Bahamat, intending to mate, and give rise to host of powerful new dragon children that combined the best traits of each. However, Bahamat rejected Tiamat. Defiant and proud, the majestic one turned away from the First Void, while Bahamat, turned away in self-righteousness and opposition. So it was that the world-shapper and the first children were lost from the First Void: first parent and child by death, then brother and sister from pride and vengeance.

In addition to a lovely ring worth about 7,000 gold, you find treasure and valuable items worth about 16,000 gold.

You move out of the treasure room and into Chillreaver's lair. Inside is an impressive and terrifying sight. The room is bathed in blue-white light, with beams focused on a small white object floating atop a pedestal high above your heads. The beams originate from ten silvery mirrors positioned along the east and west sides of the walkway you stand upon. Down below, you can see the base of the pedestal where the beams are focused; the pedestal’s length make it appear almost like an ice obelisk. An energy hangs about the room, and the air is colder than you’ve felt anywhere else in the complex. Briefly, you feel an invasive presence in your mind, as if it is searching for something . . . and then it is gone.



You then fix your eyes upon the terrible form that sits upon a rune-inscribed icy dais at the far end of the room. A gigantic, two-headed white dragon meets your gaze, its eyes black as the soulless depths and its mouths smoking with its icy breath. It speaks, both voices echoing off the icy walls in unison, “The mages must be desperate to save their people. They send outsiders here to do their work. How weak! How pathetic! Soon the storm comes to them, and nothing will escape my wrath!”

Chillreaver is not at all pleased that you have arrived at this late hour. Furious, he launches his assault on you and using his breath weapon against the group again and again. He stays up in the air, hovering near the Seed to protect it from your meddling. Twice he heals from the runs on the ground.

Between the icy ground and the seed dominating Hedoni and then Valor, the group begins to dispair. Murrak and Daggoth are knocked down to unconsciousness twice and only potions of vitality keep them from utter oblivion. Finally, Hedoni manages to regain control of his abilities. After multiple attempts he finally uses his mage hand and all his arcane skill to wrench the Seed of Winter from its pedestal high above the ground. The wizard weighs the terrible shape of the group against the fact that Chillreaver isn't even bleeding yet. Although he has only a guess as to where it will lead, he uses the ring he took from Vesper and teleports the entire group, and the Seed of Winter, somewhere ...

The adventure continues in The Throne of the Stone-Skinned Queen.

The group gains 2,000 experience for defeating the Seed of Winter. You do not get any experience from Chillreaver. You also get 1,000 experience for a minor quest to recover the Seed of Winter and 5,000 experience as a major quest reward for saving the island of Nefelus from the unnatural winter. With the Seed out of Chillreaver's grasp, the climate change will halt.
