[Larz Oathtaker]

Like Harley, Larz hears his two comrades call to arms then Harley asking about their location. as he breaks into a sprint he shouts over his shoulder. They are in the armory finishing up barricading the stair case down, follow me. then he's gone running at full speed out the door and down the hallway. Larz turns the corner and sprints up to the open doorway of the armory, seeing nothing he asks. What's going on.

(please move Harley on the map, it's still too confusing for me.)

[Lucian]

Lucian, who was also exploring the area looking for the stones for the anvil, hears the comotion and takes off running right next to Harley and Larz.  He rushes toward Toryn and Dunn, skidding to a halt next to Larz. Looking at the gnome starring with a pale face at a closed door, Lucian cast his shield. "What did we find now?"

(Action 1 & 2 - Following Larz and Harley toward Dun and Toryn's voices.)
(Action 3 - Casts Shield: +1 AC and Gains Shield Block 5 Reaction.)

[DM Dread]

Oriana heard a yell from where Toryn and Dunndero had gone and knowing Toryn had answered Dunndero's call for help with a door she turned immediately and ran towards the armory. She ran in to see Toryn deathly white looking into the room were she heard rusty metallic doors opening.

Lucian followed her out and stopped at the entrance to the armory, now almost empty. A secret door, looking like part of the wall was open into the hall he could barely see. Toryn looked frightened.

Larz followed Oriana and Lucian to the Armory and pushed past Lucian to enter the room at the doorway. 

Toryn shouted something about skeletons and tried to shut the door, but was unable to for some unknown reason. Hed have to puzzle that out later as he moved back behind Dunndero. near the last weapons rack.

Suddenly appearing in the doorway was a skeletal body the size of a dwarf. Its eyes were blazing orbs of red Its bony fingers reaching out for the living. Behind it more could be seen as it moved next to Dunndero. It was almost pushed forward by the others and moved next to Oriana as Dunndero swung his axe because it left an opening and he took the opportunity. His axe should have smashed it to pieces, but the axe blade slid in between ribs. He had overlooked their natural resistance to slashing or piercing weapons because they lacked organs and skin.  They kept crowding out filling the room with still more behind them. 

Then they reached out with bony hands. Dunndero pushed the hands away with an armored arm and axe haft. 

A set of skeletal fingers grabbed Oriana's arm and pinched through armor piercing her flesh as blood trickled down her arm and hand. To its left another reached out to her but was unable to attack due to the confined quarters and there being no opening to do so.

The one that was missing ribs that Dunndero had assaulted originally as it squeezed through tried to grab at Larz  and managed to scratch the side of his face.

Satoru and Arielle were slower to react and moved calmly up to the corner of the hall and could see Lucian at the entrance to the Armory.

Harley, confused about where the fight was. shouted where are you and heard the answer and came running. and squeezed past both Larz and Lucian to get next to Toryn but behind Oriana ready to fight if she could get adjacent to the skeletons.

Dunndero then took a backswing at the one reaching for him and connected doing about as much damage to it because of its lack of real body, as the former. He then swung down and smashed the skeleton to bits with a second swing.

Breezy forego's watching the stairs and comes running out to stand next to Lucian .

[Lucian]

Lucian sees the skeletons pouring into the room from where he stands in the door.  "Oh... Well that answers that." 
It seems like the team pushed themselves into a tight area with no room to maneuver.  The Wizard calls out, "They are resistant to damn near everything but bludgeoning, Hammers, Blunt objects, that sort of thing!" 
He tries to help give them some breathing room, Focusing his will, he reaches out telekinetically and grabs a loose brick or bit of rubble large enough to make an impact on the bones. "Ject!" Then hurls it at one the undead in the far corner, but the brick just bounces off the wall behind the skeleton as Lucian can't quite get a decent look at the things from outside the room.

[Dunndero]

" Hold still ye Bony Bastard, so I can Barry ye like a ten penny nail!, exclaims Dunndero as he slams the weapon flatside down atop the skull of a 2nd skeleton.

[Harley the Barbarian]

What the? Was all she said before leaping forward and smashing her war maul down on the head of one of the skeletons reducing it to a pile of bones before twirling in a circle and sweeping the hefty weapon around, but her aim was off and she missed the second skeleton entirely.
