In which the Sigil 6 used a Wish to avoid Death and then beheaded Acererak.

Acererak had a strong start. The group was bloodied. Bugwump had died from a Power Word Kill and the only thing that saved him was the ability to re-roll a Counterspell. I described the Pale Frog-Kin, an avatar of death from Bugwump’s homeland. “Are you Bugwump, of the Sigil 6?”
Bugwump signed and then flipped the avatar of death off as he went back to life to get another chance.
Then Jusko closed with the archlich. Trundle had closed with Acererak but hadn’t been able to land a shot.
Acererak attempted to use a paralysis touch ability but did not roll well enough to get by Jusko’s 24 AC. And Jusko rolled a nat 20 with a vorpal sword.
Acererak’s green gem eyes started to lose their glow but before they turned to dust they managed to say, “Well done. I will reform soon. We will see if you are so lucky next time.”
The group looked into some nooks and crannies of the dungeon, found the library and did some research.
Shepherd cast Legend Lore to try and find Acererak’s Soul Jars and/or Lair. I’m thinking that ancient Omuan legendary warriors, folk who were far away from their home when Omu fell to Acererak tried to kill him and never returned.
Next Game: You know where Acererak’s Lair is…now what?
