[color=steelblue]"Actually, if you're crafting skill is good, I wouldn't mind giving you my share of the loot for a better sword."[/color] Rath remarked as Goibnu offered to work on something for him. Just as well, Rath never had the patience to figure out any of the crafting systems- having a friend like Goibnu who [i]did[/i] have the patience to learn all of that might prove fruitful. He'd even be willing to pay for the labor, though that'd probably be a discussion for later, after they cleared the place. 

Rath hadn't expected to find a secret door in a dungeon like this, but he was pleasantly surprised. As usual, he led the proverbial charge- or walk, down the stairs as they entered what seemed to be a sort of boss room. A secret boss perhaps? Rath hadn't encountered this monster before, but with the party they had assembled, Rath didn't feel particularly worried. The scent was certainly off putting, but Rath was quick to open up his menu and disable the smell feature from ToE, a small text appearing at the bottom corner of his vision to inform him of the smell of the room instead of physically having to deal with it himself. 

[color=steelblue]"Guess I oughta take this one a bit more seriously, huh?" [/color] Rath chuckled as he strode to the front of the group, a red aura expanding from him as he once again activated his Intimidating Presence. [color=steelblue]"Claudia! Elian's watching our backs, so you call the shots for this fight- keep an eye on things and call things out if we need to change focus."[/color]

There was a crackle and boom as a bolt of lightning fell from the ceiling and crashed onto Rath. A faint flash of light followed and as the dust cleared out, Rath's humanoid shape was replaced by that of a massive bear. Lightning crackled across claws the size of daggers and a rolling thundercloud rumbled around his neck. As the column of light collided with the undead boss, the bear charged forward, electrified paws rearing back as he lunged at the creature to rip and tear it apart.
