Korgan gets up. "I think they're playing me song," he says. He goes back into the room, facing the set of swords and shields. Both he and the set miss. But Kivan tags him for 2 with an arrow (rolled a 1). Korgan growls angrily. Korgan fights back, striking the shield for 9. It's heavily damaged, but hanging in there. The swords tag him for 20, and Kivan's arrow takes out the shield. Korgan misses, but takes another 12 damage. He's dying, but keeps on fighting (down to 3 hp), Both swords miss, but Korgan takes one out with the help of Imoen and Kivan's arrows. Then, it all goes wrong. After another inconclusive exchange, the sword smoothly guts Korgan in one blow. Korgan misses his last attack and goes down hard.
Alora will join in the missile barrage with her sling. Someone could wear her boots of speed during the fight if they want to (she's got big feet being a halfling)
If Kivan tries a run through back into the large chamber, everyone in the fountain room might want to come with him. I don't know how many attacks per round the swords and shields get, but more targets means less damage to any particular individual.
@Permidion_Stark OOC You're probably right, but Aerie might roll a 20. I'll just make sure to be well out of the area of effect. Otherwise, I'll be knocking on a lich's door stark nekkid, figuratively speaking. Almost literally, since Xzara's robe has taken a LOT of abuse...

OOC And Kivan might find that slightly distracting.
Kivan gets hit twice by the massed swords, for no damage (7 left). He hits the sword, but doesn't manage to destroy it. That's for Alora and her sling bullet. Next round Kivan gets hit twice again, but misses the return stroke, Imoen and Alora also miss. Kivan takes 2 more hits next round. (3 left). He hits a shield, and Aerie finishes it off with a magic missile. Next round, Kivan takes another hit (2 left), but is unable to return the favor. Imoen hits a sword with an arrow, for little effect. The next round takes down the last of the stoneskin protection, but Alora tags Kivan on the back of the head with a sling bullet for 1 damage. Next round, Kivan takes 3 hits for 27 damage. He hits back and hits the damaged sword, but it's still in the fight- until Imoen smashes it with a sling bullet. Next round, he is hit by all the swords, for 43 damage total. He hits one of the swords, but is unable to kill it, while Imoen and Alora miss.
OOC: acid arrow, dispel magic, polymorph other, protection from normal weapons, disintegrate...just skimmed them but these might work? Doubtful that Aerie has any of them though.
Kivan strikes back, killing the last damaged sword, then stumbles back into the other room to catch his breath. There is one full set left- the hardest, most dangerous set.
@mlnevese That's right. Keldorn did lend Imoen a shirt. She's wearing it over the robe so the locations of the holes don't matter so much. Paladins can be so thoughtful.
OOC Has Aerie still got a teleport spell? If she has, could she use it to teleport one of the swords away from the other one so we could fight it on its own?

Korgan has died.
I keep shooting, I'm supposed to be one of the best archers in the world
Wait a minute? Skeletons can't eat. Where would the food go?
