The stone whizzes past the phoenix. A miss!

Party XP: 7/10
Clues: 1/3

Laralute also recognized the forest phoenix for what it was. The majestic bird had a special meaning to the elves and its feathers were an important spell component for many potions and spells. While she hated to kill it, legend said it could not truly die and would rise again even more grand and beautiful.

She took aim with her bow. It will take a 6 or better to hit it.

Laralute downs the bird! She quickly collects its feathers. She saves the carcass since it could be used as a bribe for any monsters they might encounter later or they could eat it over a campfire later.

She collects 50+4d6 gp worth of feathers.

The party come to a place where a variety of tracks crisscross. They are hard to make out.

Roll again.

After losing some time to studying the tracks, the group begin to follow a set that look to be orc tracks. A short while later, they encounter a fungas ogre known as a Matanger. This type of monster is very rare in the Kardolk forest.

The Matanagar is a 6 level boss with 6 life, 2 attacks and has a morale +1. Any non-magical damage, the Matanagar ignores the damage on a roll of 6. Olaf can use his one-time ability here, the monster does not generate XP as it is not a minion. The fight begins next round on Olaf's turn.

The matanagar moves forward menacingly. Olaf raises his ax. "I'm about to ax you some questions Mr. Moss man," Olaf says. "Cover your eyes, Teddy! This might get messy!" Olaf charges forth. The fungal ogre is as big as Olaf, so they are evenly matched.

Olaf's attack roll is 1d6+3. He must get a total of 6 or higher to wound the monster.

Monster health: 6/6

OOC: The monster gets a save if hit on non-magical damage. On a roll of 6, it ignores the wound. Its morale is +1 (a roll of 3 or less is a fail).

Olaf hits! The monster gets a saving throw. If it gets a 6, the damage is ignored!

The matanagar takes one wound!

Monster health: 5/6

OOC: The monster gets a save if hit on non-magical damage. On a roll of 6, it ignores the wound. Its morale is +1 (a roll of 3 or less is a fail).

Slappy feels more confident with his new improved magic dagger, Stewart which is +2. Daggers being hand weapons have a -1 to reflect their size, so the bonus is only +1 but would do 2 wounds if it strikes. A 6 is needed to hit. Since the dagger is magic, the monster does not get a save. Slappy takes a deep breath and charges forward hoping to hit.

Perhaps Slappy got a little too over confident. He faceplants! How embarrassing! Laralute decides to use a lightning bolt. If she hits, it will inflict 2 wounds due to the fact that this monster is considered a boss. That will bring it to half its life if successful and the monster then makes a moral check at +1 (4 or less it stays to fight). However, it will lose a level regardless (from 6 to 5)

LL's lightning bolt roll is her level (3) plus her attack roll. A 6 or higher is needed to succeed.

The matanagar takes two wounds! That brings it to half its hit points and it must now make a morale check +1.

Zap! The matanagar is hurt by the energy bolt, but in it to win it and fights to the death!

Wounds: 3/6

Reduced to level 5 for the remainder of the battle.

Dru steps up to the matanagar and attacks with her hammer. She needs to roll a 5 or better. Since her hammer is not magical, the monster gets a saving throw if she hits it.

Dru misses badly! The monster immediately attacks her since she fumbles, followed by Olaf since he is the main threat.

Dru dodges the attack!

Olaf defense roll.

Olaf takes a wound.

Olaf attacks again. He needs a 5 or better to wound the monster.

The monster gets a save since the ax is a non-magical attack. It shrugs it off if it gets a 6.

The monster fails its save and takes another wound. It's not looking good.

Wounds: 2/6
