Alzar flies up and lands and turns himself into a human again, who checks carefully, sees nothing, and then pops down to the 4th floor. He readies himself, and then flings the door open, drops down, and fires off a charge. Then he turns visible.
Meanwhile, the Master looks up in stark shock, and then in a flash gets ready. Alzar is very lucky. The Master is wearing a Ring of Spell Turning – and that does not work against wands, rings, or charges used by objects -just against old fashioned spells.
The Master looks up, hood falling from his head without notice, and Alzar almost pauses. He looks exactly like a younger St. Hosadus, same exact scars and everything.
The Master takes 2d6 from the Wand. 6, roll for save for half – 3. Huge cramps begin, and the Master makes his INT roll and sees what the Wand is and grabs a pitcher of water from the table and quaffs it as the tigers jump in to attack and Alzar unfurls his golem.
Round #3 –
Alzar and Aegis
Vs
Two large tigers – AC6, hp 34, 30; THAC0 15, 3 attacks, 1d6, 1d6, 1d12
The Master – 53/56 hp
Initiative – 9 vs 4. The tigers are ordered to attack Alzar who has a -3 AC so they need a 18 to hit him. One scratch for 4 damage. The enemy casts Flame Strike and Alzar takes…15 (after he made the save). Alzar needs a THAC0 of 7 normally (modified with +1 axe) and his foe is -1 AC – so a 5 (after Zoster bonus). He rolls 11, 14, and 14. The Master just too three hits for….39 damage. The golem misses.
Alzar 42/61
Master 14/56
5 vs 4. The master casts Cure Critical Wounds and heals himself. The tigers miss. Alzar hits twice with axe and shield for 25. The golem punches and connects for…1, 7, 5 – 13 damage.
Master - 6/56
Alzar forces an initiative win with his Ring of Quick Action and carves into the master twice for 28 damage and he dies. A tiger bites for 4. The Golem smashes it back for 7. 2 vs 9. Alzar smashes it dead in one hit and then carves the other tiger badly and drops it to single digits, and the golem finishes it off.
