They head back to the corridor and continue pressing. As the zombies move down the corridor and past a bend, a snake-like horror slithers into view. It’s eyes seem to while in a hypnotic pattern and it tries to hypnotize the zombies.

Well that’s not going to work. The zombies tear into the hypnosnake. It starts to bite, and one bite kills a zombie. The Hypnosnake is not like carrion crawlers, it has other attacks. Alzar moves in and closes his eyes, closing to the snake, he takes 4 damage from the snake’s chomp.

While holding onto it, it guarantees, he’ll be hit, and it bites him again for 5 damage, but then he casts Vampiric Touch, and it takes 13 and he is healed. The zombies hit the snake for some damage too. A sling stone from Volcifar crushes it and it dies.

50/51 Alzar

Each person gets 400 XP

Volcifar has leveled up, but we’ll finish that post-adventure

They carve open the hypnosnake, since Alzar is not familiar with this creature, and find nothing. You never know, you might find something useful in digestive tracts or some such. There are a few items on the ground though, a mace and shield that look quite nice.

They add the items to the magic pile:


Mace +2, +4 vs Undead
+1 Shield

Will be found later

And the mace Alzar has is:

Mace, +1 vs Lawful, -1 vs Chaotic
