Too bad. She might have had sneak attack, being as it hadn't acted yet. But utter fail. Sword just skids right off its armored form.

[ewancummins]

It does have improved initiative, so...

Will give it normal attack this round, as it's coming through the portal when people try to stop it.

Full attack may be used later...

This insectile horror must be a Daemon. Thankfully, not one of the greater varieties, but still a dire threat to life and sanity. Based on Benn's reading, poison and acid are useless in this fight. Zapping, burning, freezing the thing might work, given massive pile-on of attacks, but brute force spells like Alain's nasty trick with falling rocks would be better. Magic missiles, as Alain just used, could hurt it. The thing possesses some innate resistance to spells, so incantations that attack it in ways that circumvent such resistance are the best bet.
Weapons can harm it, but steel blessed by a holy man and aligned to forces of cosmic Goodness would be by far the most effective arms.

If Benn knew it's true name...but he doesn't.

It no doubt has magical powers besides speaking into minds.
If not dealt with now, this daemon might even be able to bring others of its kind through the gate. Or perhaps not. Sources conflict on that point.

See above. He made the roll.

Yes, his dark knowledge may come into play, as per the usual archivist rules.

You might want to show that to the other players, if you are going that route.
