^Nvm, forgot I already summoned a goblin.

[Ircher]

Gypyx, never one for caution, surges forth and strikes at Adriana. (5 so far on Cultist Adriana.) Allahandra throws the Pen of Energy Flow to inspiratieloos and then supports Gypyx's attacks. (5 + 4 = 9 so far on Cultist Adriana.) The cultist attempts to parry the attack.

inspiratieloos channels the power of the pen and begins casting a summoning ritual. After some time, a short and chubby goblin appears in front of you.

Cultist Adriana blows a loud whistle, and you see sudden movement in the surrounding foliage.

[Ircher]

Gypyx's and Allahandra's blades make a loud clang sound as they rebound off of Cultist Adriana's thick armor. **Cultist Adriana has

58/60

HP left.** Note: This is not an error.

A vicious cultist carrying a wickedly sharp blade jumps out from the shadows.

Cast Examine Creature on Adriana

Initiative so still 1 action left.

[Ircher]

Gypyx begins to make assorted motions and reciting words from a long forgotten language. Soon, red wisps begin to encircle his wrists. Gypyx points at Cultist Adriana, and the wisps begin to fly towards the cultist. A faint red light shines upon the cultist and the wisps disappear in a puff of black smoke. **Cultist Adriana has

57/60

HP left.**

dsjstr sneaks around Cultist Adriana and strikes with a determined and powerful stance. (10 so far on Cultist Adriana.)

inspiratieloos makes a few gestures with his hands while reciting some ancient words. Wisps of various colors form around him. He points at Cultist Adriana, and the wisps begin to fly towards the cultist. After a while, they return to inspiratieloos and impart to him various knowledge.

Spoiler: Cultist Adriana Examination Results

**Cultist Adriana : Cultist Blademaster : Level = 8 | HP = 60 | MP = 24 | Morale = 20 | Attack1 = 1d8 | Attack2 = 1d4 | Defense = 1d6
- Passive Skill "Healing Grace": If an attack causes this creature's health to drop to 1 HP or less (when they were above 1 HP beforehand), this creature will be left with 1 HP instead. If the creature takes damage at 1 HP, it dies.
- Passive Skill "Perseverance": Instead of dying, this creature is rendered unconscious when this creature takes damage at 1 HP. Further damage will kill this creature. Healing items and spells restore unconscious characters to 1 HP, regardless of how much health is healed.
- Passive Skill "Armored": This creature is heavily armored further reducing physical damage (normal attacks and most damaging skills) by 60% after accounting for the defense roll. The final result is rounded to nearest; however, a minimum of one damage is dealt if the value before this reduction was greater than zero.
- Passive Skill "In Control": Crowd control effects last for one round less than normal.
- Passive Skill "Magic Vulnerability": Direct damage spells stack against this enemy similar to how normal attacks and active skills do. The anti-dogpiling penalty is also waived against this enemy when using direct damage spells.
- Active Skill "Berserk Lunge" (4 CD): Lunges at an enemy for {Attack Dice} damage. If the target takes damage, they are stunned for four rounds. Otherwise, the target is stunned for two rounds. After using this skill, this creature is stunned for three rounds (the rest of this round and the following two rounds).
- Active Skill "Call for Aid" (2 CD / 8 ICD): Calls for reinforcements. A random level 8 cultist appears. Roll 1d6: 1 => Blademaster, 2 => Sharpshooter, 3 => Magician, 4 => Acolyte, 5 => Musician, 6 => Summoner.
- Magic Spell "Heal All" (5 Mana): Heals all allies by 1d8 + 1d3 hitpoints.
- Magic Spell "Cultist Ritual" (2 Mana): Uses magic to heal oneself by 3d4 hitpoints.
- Power Spell "Blood Slash" (4 CD | 4 Mana): Slashes an enemy for {Attack Dice} damage and uses the victim's blood to rejuvenate this creature. This creature regains hitpoints equal to 25% of the roll (rounded to nearest, but minimum of 1 if roll was greater than or equal to 1), regardless of how much damage the target actually took.

Zulu swings its club twice at Beta. The cultist laughs at the puny attack as he attempts to dodge the attack.

inspiratieloos rushes forth into battle and with a great warcry, makes a mighty swing against Beta. (17 + 2 = 19 so far on Beta.)

dsjstr begins making motions and reciting ancient words. White wisps form around him. He points towards inspiratieloos, and the wisps flow into inspiratieloos, empowering him.

inspiratieloos is blessed (+2) for three rounds.

Allahandra joins inspiratieloos's assault and attempts to stab the cultist from behind. The cultist attempts to avoid the attack. (19 + 4 = 23 so far on Beta.)

Beta manages to dodge the majority of Allahandra's attack but suffers major damage from inspiratieloos's powerful blow. **Beta has

Zulu swings wildly to the east and misses Cultist Adriana altogether.
---
Despite dsjstr's best efforts, Cultist Adriana's attack is too swift for him to dodge it completely. The impact knocks him backwards and leaves both of them dizzy.

Cultist Adriana is stunned for three rounds. dsjstr is stunned for four rounds.

**dsjstr has

16/20

inspiratieloos sees Beta's motions coming and quickly leaps out of the way.

Allahandra is not as fortunate and is knocked off her feet by Beta's blade. **Allahandra has
