Run Away from the Litch!

Down to a room where brown mold is freezing the cavern.
On to room where Da’Nog wanders off and goes into a room where there is a statue of a bird/man.
Da’Nog cuts himself and blood begins to run into the floor. The floor appears to be drinking the blood… The statue’s eyes begin opening….
Thud drags Da’Nog away and max casts hold person. The charm is broken.
Greenleaf finds a secret door. Into a room where there are muscular tattooed minotaurs. The room appears to be the dormitory for the minotaurs. Thud attacks with his potion of super heroism still in effect.
The bard begins to sing his song to bolster the party with +1 to hit. Da’Nog also attacks.
Thud rolls a one and drops his sword.
Ronj attacks punching one of the minotaurs for 16 points.

The group hurredly moves on to preserve the affects of the potions.

The party approaches a door that is locked and Da’Nog smashes it in.
The room is filled with items and supplies from many adventuring parties.
The group stays for four hours gathering magical items and 10,000 worth of gold coins.

Then they move on to a room where there is a sleeping minotaur. Old and grey. Da’Nog attempts to kill the minotaur in his sleep and rolls a one. His loincloth falls around his ankles as his sword buries itself in one of the minotaurs horns and the minotaur wakes. Thud attacks and hits with his sword.
The minotaur is killed.
A group of five more minotaurs attacks the party and Max casts lightning. Then thud and Da’Nog mops up.
Then the litch’s hand appears through a glowing green crack in thin air and the ring on his hand begins to glow. a forked lightning bold explodes on the group.
Greenleaf successfully casts a dispel magic and the crack is dispelled. The group is fearful of another attack and begins to second guess their plan.
Thud lets out a hideous shreek! Pure terror and drops dead. Zapa casts thud to half size and Stumpy picks him up. The group retreats to the fountain. as they approach they can hear armored footsteps behind them. Max casts wall of fire and the group begins to enter the fountain one by one. The first one through is Da’Nog and he encounters an umber hulk as he exits on the other side. His eyes catch those of the umber hulk and Da’Nog is suddenly confused. The monster clamps his mandibles around Da’Nog in his stunned state but Da’Nog is able to break loose and attack back. Ronj appears next through the fountain and attacks the umber hulk…

    Thud may be the bane of the Wights, but that Litch was out of our weight class, no dishonor in this retreat. Finger of Death, Disintegrations and Lightning Bolts, I will bet if we were a “good” party, the Litch may have slain us all, without the “get out” warning first.

    Oh well, at least the group got some experience and treasure. I get to go back to Bard College to level up…I just hope the tuition isn’t too pricey.
