  • The party, with their new found base, decides they want to explore some of the pyramid
  • Elon Dusk explains he will stay here and study some of the ancient runes in the room (DM Note – this was an easy way to excuse him from today’s session as the player was not able to attend this session)
  • Don explains that the new found magical energy released has made his mind open to the world; and he feels something calling outside of the pyramid, so he excuses himself (DM Note – this was an easy way to excuse him from today’s session as the player was not able to attend this session – ironically, Don is changing his Ranger sub class, so this was an easy way to explain why he wasn’t present)
  • The party begins to head down the hall and sees – that it opens to the left and right – and Buppido starts marching left – and the others follow
  • The hall seems to have been an area where several studies, with rooms that had once belonged to scribes; due to the ancient, brittle parchments, and the rotted wooden tables; before the hall opens up to a large cathedral
  • The party reaches the back wall of the cathedral and sees a large statue of a humanoid figure whose arms are extended out; but the arms are snake-like in appearance
  • Behind the statue is a large, skeletal figure of a massive snake like creature
  • In front of the statue are two sarcophagus, both of them are covered
  • Glancing all around; there are bones everywhere – and it becomes clear that the previous owners took part of human sacrifices
  • Adrian casts Divine Sense and notices all the bones on the floor glow a faint color, as does the serpent skull behind the statue
  • Adrian points out – all the bones are glowing
  • And just as Buppido picks one up and says, “Even this one?”
  • And all the bones start coming together
  • And they all connect – into one large serpent skeletal creature!
  • Korra manages to strike the creature with her new spell Psychic Blade
  • The Spirit Naga casts Lightning Bolt which manages to strike Adrian, but Bupiddo and Korra dodge (only taking half the damage), except for Sephrenia who was standing off to the side
  • Adrian casts Protection from Evil and Good
  • Sephrenia casts Summon Celestial – Defender – using Healing Touch on Adrian who’d suffered damage from the lightning bolt
  • Korra smiles – looks at her dagger and summons up the new magic coursing through her body and casts Shadow Blade and strikes the Spirit Naga for damage
  • Korra manages to avoid all the damage – even the half damage (Natural 20!)
  • Adrian however, fails to save and takes the full brunt of the Spirit Naga’s furious Lightning Bolt
  • The damage is also enough to rattle his concentration, breaking his Protection from Evil and Good
  • Buppido tries a Raulothim’s Psychic Lance – however, the Spirit Naga avoids it completely (Natural 20!)
  • Adrian begins to swing – but his weapon almost slides out of his hands, and uses Inspiration to prevent the Critical Fail (Natural 1) – but he’s not able to penetrate the Spirit Naga with that attack
  • But as he brings his sword back around, he lands a hit and sends a Divine Smite through and does significant damage
  • This causes the Spirit Naga to explode; sending bone fragments through the room – and the party dives behind the pews
  • The party examines the symbols all over the floor and walls – and notices runes on the sarcophagus
