There are six Beholders in a room up ahead, awaiting in ambush as Alzar moves. Forewarned, he heads back, grabs the scroll, and then uses Passwall to breach them from the other side, swapping over to anti-anti-magic.

As the wall falls, Alzar tosses an explosive grenade from one of the ships into the area, and it blows up. He damages all 6 Beholders, and they spin, fire eye rays at him, but they hit his MR, Spell Turning Ring, and saves. In unison, they move to cover him with AM instead, and battle begins:

4 vs 3

They bite Alzar twice, and he takes 13 damage and avoids the other. His axe, non magical, carves and slays a wounded Beholder.

74/87

5 vs 6

Alzar regains initiative and kills another Beholder. Two flee, and the last can’t hit him at all.

5 vs 4

They hit him for 9 damage on an bite. Alzar slays one more and the last one begins to flee

Alzars bow is out and he takes out the wounded Beholder. He hunts down and slays the last two with the bow as they flee. Either they let him use magic and he takes them out quickly, of the AM.

He’ll bring their bodies to various places and then reanimate them as Death Tyrants

Most of the lab here has broken stuff. He finds 5000 gp worth of unbroken glass or metal stuff for his lab, a handful of unbroken bottles here and there with various liquids and a handful of various treasures:

22 books on various poisons local and planar

Scroll - Priest Spells – Sticks to Snakes, Spike Stones, Turn Wood, Spiritual Hammer, Heal

Potion of Giant Strength; acid breath; fire breath; extra-healing; sweet water, and longevity

“Harlrun”, Long Sword, N, +4, +6 vs non-human humanoids, telepathic, communicates with Alzar as soon as it’s founds, can detect traps ongoing and cast Strength on the user once/day. +2 saves vs humanoid magic. Ego 28

Harlrun is okay with Alzar right now (he’s still LN) but won’t like the conversation back to LE laters.
