Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Astraia stepped back quickly when the bodies of her former companions dissolved at her feet, covering her nose and mouth against the stench while her stomach performed several flips. The laughter echoed around her, and she spun several times, trying to locate the threat. There were no more magicka p...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

He wasnā€™t doing much devouring yet, that was for sure. Astraia didnā€™t know if it was wise to taunt a being unlike any sheā€™d seen before, but it was clear that she wouldnā€™t be leaving this place until she fought and beat him, and to do that, she first had to get him to show himself. Before that, thou...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Her wound wasnā€™t fully healed by the time the two remaining thralls renewed their attack, but Astraia was able to fight through it, the adrenaline of a life and death situation allowing her to push through the current level of discomfort. The spell cast on the elf woman that had injured allowed her ...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

One went down, and barring something miraculous, the wound to the neck would kill the Redguard. That left the other two. Astraia wheeled around to face the fireball she expected would come, but she barely had time to start a ward, it rushed at her so quickly. It was powerful, too, enhanced by the sp...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

The thralls were resilient, and attacks that would have scorched the weak draugr merely crackled against their flesh, and they attacked seemingly unconcerned. Each was a threat, though she judged the Redguard to be the most dangerous, as she could combat magical attacks easier than that longsword, g...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Astraia, were she in a more peaceful place, would have been immensely interested in the books covered in text she couldnā€™t recognize, but at the moment she had no choice but to be concerned with her immediate surroundings, and the threat they potentially posed to her. The first time a rat scurried o...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

The young woman breathed a sigh of relief when like dominoes the draugr fell one after the other. The sound of lightning crackling over decaying flesh had never been so satisfying. The water dispersed, and the threat seemed to have passed, the bars retracting that had once sealed her in. It was like...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

The two draugr went down easily enough, to Astraiaā€™s relief, but the remaining draugr were now proving troublesome to get an angle on, hiding behind the pillars rather than blindly pressing the attack. She moved on to the end of the room, opposite of where she had entered from, but of course she cou...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

It was only a matter of time before Astraia was surrounded, and now that time had come. The draugr were able to frustratingly shift which of them were controlling the water golems, now merged into a single boiling wall, and which would try to kill her in a more mundane fashion. With threats closing ...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

A sheen of sweat covered Astraia, her clothes clinging uncomfortably to her skin. The turn undead spell, while effective, had a result that was likely worse than what she had to begin with. Half of the golems were banished away, but the draugr that took their places advancing on her were much swifte...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Getting rid of one of them proved easy enough, but there were still fifteen more, and just as she learned their weaknesses, they learned her tactics, and were smart enough to adapt to them on the fly. The closest draugr, who were the easiest and most obvious ones to hit next, were soon shielded by t...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Astraia hissed a curse at herself for missing the pressure plate, but when she looked for it, she wasnā€™t even sure which brick it had been. This place was a death trap, and she seemed to be the only prey left inside. Soon enough, there were battleaxe wielding draugr surrounding her on both sides, an...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

The tomb at last fell into silence after the last of the rubble finished crashing to the floor. Thankfully the structural damage was contained to just that room. Astraia found herself in another long hallway dotted with torch sconces dimly illuminating the path. There didnā€™t seem to be any immediate...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Immense relief washed over Astraia when the flames finally were pushed back, but it didnā€™t take long for her to recognize the new threat of the room steadily caving in, a far greater concern for the mage than the weakened atronach at this point. She needed to get out of her, now. Quick reaction time...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Astraia was in a great deal of pain from the flames, but the actual damage to her was being counteracted fairly well by her healing spell. The constant casting of spells was taking a heavy toll on her reserves of magicka, though, and she doubted she could keep it up for long. For a moment she felt c...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

The errant fireball warned Astraia that the atronach was recovering from the crushing stones, and she was glad that it had been poorly aimed. She likely wouldnā€™t have seen it coming at all had it been on target. Instead, she was able to prepare herself for its attack, after placing another rune, thi...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Astraia, having studied a number of odd magical entities at the College of Winterhold, did take notice of the effect the crushing of the statue seemed to have on the solidarity of the atronach. From there, her mind worked quickly. Continuing to attack it directly wasn't a good strategy; she would ne...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Astraia was clearly no longer being underestimated by the atronach once it recovered from her attack, as its movements seemed to intensify. While her lightning bolt seemed to have temporarily stunned it, the lasting effects didnā€™t seem to be all that much. She would need to come up with something st...

Re: Dungeon Crawl (Player vs Monsters)

Astraia froze in place upon seeing the Daedric writing appear on the floor, which made her not notice the flickering of her torch, or the bending of the light towards the center of the room. The crack from behind her was impossible to miss, though, and she stumbled forward a half-step from the shock...

Re: Can't Post a Link?

I'm having this problem as well, though I'm a lot newer to the site. I can post links without the coding, but trying to make it look nice makes the site mad at me.
