Since the long Hill Giant fight was split up into several posts, I'll give you this whole thing in one.


They arrive at the door and open it. Inside are a dozen bugbears who shout for aid and battle is joined.


Alzar drops three with Sleep. The rest move in. A door opens and more bugbears can be seen but no one knows the count.

Battle begins

Alzar’s group wins init. The Dominated Cloud Giant is happy to attack these, and his magic sword cuts into one for 6 damage. Carum spears it for 6 and Estiash misses. Bokus punches once for 15 and slasy it. Alzar casts Sleep from his Ring and drops another 4. Gargoyles eat one. Crossbow bolts hit one for 5 damage and the undead don’t have anything to do, not enough spac.e The bugbears attack various people, and miss.

A dozen more Bugbears have poured into the room and more are coming.

Alzar’s group wins init. His final Sleep from another Spell Storing Ring drops another three. Bokus and ht fighters slay two more. Bokus takes 16 as a commander Bugbear orders concentrated attacks.

19/48 – Bokus

Alzar again wins init and orders Bokus back. He Vamp Touches one for 18 damage and slays it and gains that in life. The Cloud Giant kills another and bolts fly into a third and slay it. 10 more bugbears have arrived. The Cloud Giant takes 8 and Alzar is attacked heavily and unsuccessfully.


47/57 - Alzar


Slain – Bugbear - 18


They win init and Alzar takes 21. Another five enter the room. He orders everyone back and casts Skulltrap from his Ring. He flings it and hits 19 bugbears and himself for 22 damage save vs half. He slays 8, and takes 11. No one else can attack save for Carum; sling which misses and orcs that finish a wounded bugbear.


The next turn arrives


Another group of Bugbears enter, and now there have been fifty come in. Those that can attack Alzar do so, and he takes another 5 damage from two hits.

Slain – Bugbear - 27

31/57 - Alzar

With him in front, he casts the Faithful Shield-Maidens to drop his Ac twice and to give him two attackers. Bolts slay another wounded bugbear. The gargoyles are flanking Alzar and protecting everyone else from melee attacks, but preventing them from attacking.


Slain – Bugbear - 28


Alzar’s axe is out as he wins init. He carves a bugbear dead. A maiden hits and deal 5 damage and Carum kills it with a slingstone. The bugbears in the back have grabbed spears and chuck them at Alzar, but miss (Cloak).

They attack back and Alzar takes 15 (With AC4, its hard to hit him) Two axe attacks sly two more bugbears, and another dies to missiles and a fourth to gargoyles.


16/57

Slain – Bugbear – 34

He wins init again. He grabs the Orb of Golden Death and casts Wall of Ice as a horizontal ice sheet on the ceiling, and it falls on the bugbears in front of him. There is no save, they each take 3d10 damage. I roll and its 19 damage. With no save, that slays all of the remaining Bugbears in the room.


Used – Sleep x3 which includes both from Ring of Spell Storing, Vampiric Touch. Skulltrap #2 from the Ring, Shield-Maidens.

Slain – Bugbear – 50
