Finding Egog

by Dahlia Di Mare

* Mal and Petros decided to use the teleportation device and appeared on the dais. They both ducked down beside me to hide. We readied our weapons.
 
* The same kind of creatures that we had fought earlier came into the room. Six in total. They seemed ready for us. One clanged his sword to lure us out. Running out, I killed one of the creatures and managed to hurt another.
 
* Struth struck next by taking a sneak shot at one of the warriors, taking him out. Now there were only four. Petros sang to give some of us a buff. Mal stood up to shoot some arrows. Struth struck again and killed another two creatures. Now there were only two. One of them decided to attack Struth with the chain the was holding. I fought the last two and killed them.
 
* We realised that to the south corridor, there were bars and behind this were more creatures crying out in anger. It seemed that they were spectating and now cranky that we had won the fight. Mal found the device to open the bars and I tried to disable it then break it. Satisfied with my work, I headed to the north corridor. The rest followed shortly after.
 
* Struth had to unlock the door. We could hear a low rumble and then once the door once opened, we could see a large transparent tank. Suddenly, there was speech in another language, it then switched to different languages to advise that it was used to its food being brought to it and not the food bringing it self.
 
* Going around the tank, we found Egog waiting. He said that I would be eaten last as he always ate his favourite last.
 
* We started to taunt his ability as a god. This enraged him and he cast a spell against Mal. Struth and Petros hid, while Mal took a shot then hid.
 
* Having to be in the fray of things, I ran up and jumped on the platform to run behind him. I ended up in a small alcove which had vials of green liquid.
 
* Mal's wolf which he had summoned earlier came out of nowhere to attack Egog. Petros summoned a fire elemental and Mal ran up and hit Egog with his Ring of the Ram. This caused Egog to fall out of his pool and at my feet.
 
* Striking him while he was down, I then moved back and this allowed the wolf to attack him again. The fire elemental then struck and caused Egog to catch fire. Egog decided to cast a curse at me, which caused me to lose charisma. Petros ran up after this to cast a spell which helped with evasion.
 
* Mal made a hole in his Egog's pool, causing liquid to fall out. This caused Egog to get upset. The same liquid in the pool was also in the vials so I destroyed them. Petros then cast magic missile and I struck again with my rapiers. Egog cast a spell which washed over me with negativity but I was able to resist. He was dealt a few more hits then he cast a spell at Mal who came into his line of sight. Petros hit him with magic missile and it seemed he had killed Egog. Not wanting him to heal, I used my rope to lasso around his head and started to pull him out.
 
* Mal hit him in the back of the head with his axe a few times. Struth snuck up and attacked him. He once again flopped forward but I was able to hold him out of the liquid. Mal made the kill by decapitating him.
 
* I pulled a piece of crystal - worth 7 GP. I also took a pinky sized piece of rock (healing).
