"Because, you know, wanton destruction of property is always the best way to reestablish family relationships!" Matthias calls ether to stop the flow of his blood.

"Sometimes when one's identity is threatened with destruction, one discovers what one truly values."

Monk Pretzel tees off against the hideous fairy and slams the demon into the nearest wall. With a mighty thrust Vindsval spears the masked baker, but his necrotic shroud seems to shield him from the darkness imbued blade, but the contagions upon the weapon begin to take their tole. Noting Monk Pretzel's handiwork with his own equipment and not wanting to be outdone, Thalion spares a brief moment to upgrade his staves. Blood spilling on the ground, Matthias follows up his smart retort with a majestic display of natural power as healing roots envelop the druid restoring him to full power. Seizing an opportunity Nerwen brings her hammer down on one of the roasting nuts with a mighty crash sending the monster reeling. As the party regroups and faces off against the onslaught of the remaining monsters one of the sugary demons douses Matthias in a shower of sleeping powder dropping the druid immediately.

Matthias snores gently.

Asphalt · January 7, 2017

The name of your father does not create your identity. You are forging that blade in the heat of your own vengeance.

Vindsval stows his lance and draws forth a gleaming crystal Greatsword.

"Oh, nice!" Thalion looks over the enhanced staves in his hands and prepares himself.

Thalion repeats his attack.

OOC: Since he took damage from free hit, Thalion should have regained 1 ether and be at 28 currently, right?

"I prefer, baking the bread of my own satisfaction in the heat of my justice."

Monk Pretzel shakes Matthias awake with the help of a Remedy before dispelling the Sour Plum Fairy in a cascade of powdered sugar. Vindsval unsheathes his Crystal Blade and pauses for a moment to regain his composure, readying himself to jump back into the fray. Thalion is overwhelmed by his target who can't seem to penetrate the elf's armor. Matthias, fully awake, unloads a round of buckshot at the enemy inflicting multiple wounds amidst the baked creations. Nerwen swings wide and is scorched by one of the pecans as remaining creatures rush the heroes. Pretzel is knocked out with a puff of sleeping powder as Vindsval does well in fending off the remaining flaming nut.

Edited January 11, 2017 by Asphalt

**Waterbrick Down** · January 12, 2017

Monk Pretzel one again slams his staff into one of the evil fairies as Vindsval deflects a newly summoned pecan thrown at his shield. Thalion slowly gains headway against the zombies, but Matthias takes another bite from the cookies. Pulling out her scroll of sleep, Nerwen fails to correctly recite the incantation in time before the enemies swarm over them once more.
