Clawdia suddenly realizes that with the zombies getting more powerful, she can easily pick out the source of the<br/>madness controlling them. A spike of magic and madness seems to be coming from the direction of the keep.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, Kirsch is easily removed from the zombie, and Eclair's follow up with Aria easily removes the zombie from the battle. Upon impact with the zombies head, Aria emits a tone which she then wraps around her Meister as a protective aura of sound.<br/><br/>Jessa's attack on the cleaver wielder also is met with success as she sweeps it off it's feet with Rey. The damage is significant enough to render one of the zombie's legs useless.<br/>However, her victory is short lived as the now headless zombie lurches towards her. It looks as if he is about to strike her when a spear strikes it down from above. A moment later, the young man from the photograph lands next to the impaled zombie and rips the spear out of him.<br/><br/>He turns his back on the zombie and hoists the spear over one shoulder, he winks and flashes a dashing smile. "Why hello-"<br/>An arm reaches out of the spear and punches him on the shoulder. "Hey! We're married now, you can't just go flirting with any girl you see anymore!"  his weapon protests.<br/><br/>"Ow, Ow. Sorry, old habits die hard, Ekatrina," he apologizes." Anyway, I'm Pavel Armanski, former DWMA student, and Lord of the local keep. Good to see we've finally got some backup!"<br/><br/>Unseen behind him, the zombie slowly begins to rise again.<br/><br/><br/>Roll Result: Cleaver Zombie rolled: 1d20, adding 6 to the total<br/>Comment: Defense<br/>Result: 8,<br/>Total: 14<br/><br/>Roll Result: Lady Zombie rolled: 1d20, adding 3 to the total<br/>Comment: Defense vs. Eclair first<br/>Result: 2,<br/>Total: 5<br/><br/>Roll Result: Lady Zombie rolled: 1d20, adding 1 to the total<br/>Comment: Defense vs. Eclair second<br/>Result: 1,<br/>Total: 2<br/>
