[19:38] <Kotono> > Despite all his tries, Demedais gets up on the first effort!
[19:38] <Kotono> * Seira proceeds ahead.
[19:38] <Kotono> > You walk down. You see that the halls curve to the left and the right. Dotted along them are rooms - simple rooms, from the looks of it. Some of them have open doors, normal, if small bedrooms are seen on a glance.
[19:38] <Kotono> <Demedais> "The residence areas here, then. Search them one at a time?" Demedais shrugs.
[19:38] <Kotono> * Alicia walks along behind Seira, a cursory eye out for magic.
[19:38] <Kotono> * Seira is agreeable to that, and Lagann can easily tell her if there's anything of metal she'd missed in her cursory scan.
[19:38] <Kotono> <Seira> roll 1d20+29 searching it all?
[19:38] <Kotono> * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+29 searching it all? and gets 39." [1d20=10]
[19:38] <Kotono> * Demedais helps look in this.
[19:38] <Kotono> <Demedais> roll 1d20+2 kay
[19:38] <Kotono> * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+2 kay and gets 5." [1d20=3]
[19:38] <Kotono> > The party finds that these quarters loop around. There are about fifty rooms total. About half of them are blasted and ruined, little of interest. From the rest you get a pile of things: Clothes, glass jars, metal containers, bits of jewelry, knick-knacks and curious, coins, that sort of thing. Not much in the way of magic: A jagged dagger and a red necklace are found, however.
[19:38] <Kotono> <Alicia> Into the hole they go! "Lets try the opposite passages now?" Alicia suggests.
[19:38] <Kotono> <Demedais> "Sure." Demedais shrugs.
[19:40] <Kotono> The party returns to the walkways above. Walking around, they come to a pair of passages. One is arched, leading into a stairway ascending. The other is a door, closed shut.
[19:40] <Alicia> Any magic on the door?

03[19:41] * Taishyr is now known as Demedais
[19:42] <Alicia> "No magic, so the door's probably safe," Alicia opines, opening it.
[19:43] <Kotono> Ahead is a hallway that curves to the right, unlit. There's utterly no light ahead. The hall is lined with metal, symbols carved out in the walls.
06[19:44] * Demedais nods, spear out as he peers into the hall warily. "Likely trapped like everything else here, but..."
06[19:44] * Seira examines the symbols, for her part.
[19:45] <Kotono> "Naturally," Donald grins as he adjusts his helmet into place.
[19:45] <Kotono> OOC: Spellcraft, Seira?
[19:45] <Demedais> roll 1d20+31 spot perphaps
06[19:45] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+31 spot perphaps and gets 42." [1d20=11]
01[19:45] <Seira> roll 1d20+27
06[19:45] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 and gets 46." [1d20=19]
[19:45] <Alicia> "I can't gnomish so I'll take your word for it," Alicia replies as she starts to head down the hallway, able to see in the dark and alert for any magic that might hint at a potential trap ahead of her.
01[19:46] <Seira> "Wait a moment," Seira calls over to Alicia. "Unless you want to see how potent the defenses remain."
[19:46] <Demedais> "Yeah, looks like gnomish writing by and large. Perhaps it's related to some of the other things we've seen around?" Demedais nods, stepping in and looking at the writing more carefully over Seira's shoulder.
[19:46] <Alicia> "Mechanical traps?" Alicia stops worriedly, not having seen any magic.
01[19:47] <Seira> "Dunno. So it would be great if people stopped stepping forward until I've checked it out."
[19:47] <Kotono> Amaryl takes the time to check over her arrows, readying a pair. Pollyanna does much the same, squinting ahead.
[19:47] <Kotono> "Oh yeah," Donald takes a few steps away from the door. "Go ahead, Seira."
[19:48] <Demedais> "Right." Demedais shrugs, pulling back as well.
01[19:48] <Seira> Thinking gnomish thoughts worked as a fix before, so Seira tries the same as she approaches what has to be a trap.
01[19:48] <Seira> roll 1d20+28
06[19:48] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+28 and gets 41." [1d20=13]
[19:49] <Kotono> OOC: Try for DD now, yes.
01[19:50] <Seira> roll 1d20+30
06[19:50] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+30 and gets 48." [1d20=18]
02[19:50] * Nao (~carthrat@c122-107-246-130.eburwd9.vic.optusnet.com.au) Quit (Ping timeout)
[19:50] <Kotono> Seira steps slowly amid the carvings on the walls! She snakes towards one of the symbols in particular, working in deft movements! She uses a knife to carve three added lines into it, a soft humming at the wards shimmer and the metal seems to melt. It reforms, smooth and carving-less.
06[19:51] * Seira blinks. "Are you sure there's no magic involved?" she asks Alicia. "Maybe they just masked it?"
[19:51] <Alicia> "Oh... magic. Must be another place warded against divination," Alicia checks her own gear and confirms none of it seems magical to her sight. "I should check that more frequently."
01[19:52] <Seira> "Well, that's a horrible fate avoided. Let's get going?"
[19:53] <Demedais> "Right." Demedais nods, keeping a few steps behind those who can see well in the dark as they advance. "Should I pull a Sunrod out for the rest of us?":
01[19:53] <Seira> "Or Alicia could light the way."
[19:53] <Kotono> "It would be nice so I can aim," Pollyanna says with a touch of hopeful sweetness in her voice.
06[19:54] * Alicia walks over to Pollyanna and murmurs a spell, casting Light on her bow.
[19:54] <Alicia> OOC: CL for light?
[19:54] <Kotono> OOC: No.
[19:54] <Kotono> This time, the magic flows freely, uninterrupted by chaotic energies.
01[19:55] <Seira> "Want to recast your shield?" Seira asks Amaryl, hanging back near her. "Seems like magic works normally here."
[19:57] <Kotono> "Oh!" Amaryl smiles in relief, "Finally." She makes a few gestures, magic wrapping around in front of her as per normal.
01[19:58] <Seira> "I'm still waiting to see the spots that have boosted magic," Seira admits. "That guardian mentioned them, right?"
[19:58] <Demedais> "...then this will be a good place to heal when we need it again." Demedais notes, before nodding to Seira. "Those might be later in. For now, let's keep going, unless anyone wants any further preparations now?"
[19:58] <Alicia> "I'm sure they'll turn up," Alicia opines as they continue along.
03[20:01] * Nao (~carthrat@c122-107-246-130.eburwd9.vic.optusnet.com.au) has joined #dunes
[20:04] <Kotono> "Indeed," Pollyanna says. The hall continues on a little ways on a very gentle curve, about half a minute of walking. The spaces open up ahead: A room, it's back wall full of murder holes. Blast marks are all about this room, the metal walls stained black from so many. Ahead, a barred, heavy door of stout looking metal awaits. Light rubble covers the floor all over.
01[20:05] <Seira> Time to do her trapfinding thing!
01[20:05] <Seira> roll 1d20+29
06[20:05] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+29 and gets 30." [1d20=1]
01[20:05] <Seira> Finding the way ahead quite safe, Seira tries to open the door and look past it.
[20:05] <Kotono> "Oh hey!" Donald snaps his fingers. "I remember this! The big bearded devil with the nasty axe, we fought in somewher esort of like this.:"
[20:06] <Alicia> "It was, wasn't it?" Alicia agrees as she looks around. "It's almost comforting to see something familiar..."
[20:09] <Kotono> "Yeah, if this is a defensive barrier, we must be getting closer to something good," Donald agrees as Seira opens the door! As she touches it, the door flies open! Three sets of eyes loom in the pitch black darkness ahead! Two are small sized, perfectly crafted gnomes of metal. They stand behind the other, man sized. It is surrounded by dozens of whirling blades and weapons of pure force, cobbled together, battered armor on it's body. An overw
[20:10] <Kotono> cobbled together, battered armor on it's body. An overwhelming sense of tension and bloodlust gushes from the creature, 15 feet within the hall ahead! In a voice that seems to twist all around you into a battlefield, "None shall pass further! Offer your blood to me!"
01[20:11] <Seira> "Nothing witty comes to mind," Seira says with a glance back. "How about you guys?"
[20:11] <Kotono> "Yeah, familiar," Donald repeats, "If it wants a fight, well...let's give it one?"
01[20:11] <Seira> "Sure, let's go with that!"
[20:11] <Alicia> "They're made of metal, aren't they?" Alicia notes as she readies her blades.
[20:12] <Demedais> "He's a metallic vampire?" Demedais blinks, dropping the spear aside as he draws his sword.
[20:12] <Kotono> With a whirl of a long spear held it's hands, the creature is coming at you! OOC: Let's do init, it's obviously Hostle Gnome Shit. (HGS).
[20:12] <Alicia> roll 1d20+8
06[20:12] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+8 and gets 24." [1d20=16]

[20:16] <Kotono> With a gesture of utter bloodthirsty contempt, a whirling, shimmering barrier of blades engulfs the way you came, blocking it! Further, the blades catch Amaryl and Pollyanna, cutting and slicing at them! (OOC: They get ref saves.)
[20:16] <Kotono> roll 1d20+12 reflex at least Polly has evasion
06[20:16] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+12 reflex at least Polly has evasion and gets 26." [1d20=14]
[20:17] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18 No evasion but good ref
06[20:17] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 No evasion but good ref and gets 22." [1d20=4]

06[20:17] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 15d6 halve this for Amaryl, that +2 saved her pain and gets 52." [15d6=4, 3, 6, 3, 4, 4, 2, 3, 5, 3, 5, 1, 3, 3, 3]
[20:18] <Kotono> As the blades whirl, Pollyanna dives ahead and out of the way, untouched! Amaryl is cut deep into her side, but with a heroic surge, she escapes them with only a relatively light wound as well! A split second later, the spear bearer is charging dead ahead at Seira! OOC: As it comes into range, make a will save, Seira? Mind affecting.
01[20:19] <Seira> roll 1d20+28
06[20:19] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+28 and gets 45." [1d20=17]
[20:20] <Kotono> A moment later, it's spear lances deep at Seira!
[20:20] <Kotono> roll 1d20+30 (+2 charge, -5 PA)
06[20:20] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+30 (+2 charge, -5 PA) and gets 41." [1d20=11]
[20:20] <Kotono> OOC: Flatfooted AC, Seira?
01[20:20] <Seira> OOC: That hits flatfooted, yes
[20:20] <Kotono> roll 1d8+9
06[20:20] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8+9 and gets 15." [1d8=6]
[20:21] <Kotono> OOC: Do you have your DR up yet?
01[20:21] <Seira> OOC: No
[20:21] <Kotono> The spear glitters with rainbow colors, seven gemstones set into it! The force weapons dance around it's body, like a close range cloak of blades shielding it! OOC: Alicia.
06[20:23] * Alicia moves a bit to the side so Seira isn't in her way and she has a line on the big statue and one of the smaller ones, before she hurls Hell Striker forward, magic carrying it to scythe through both golems!
[20:23] <Alicia> OOC: knowledge for devotion?
[20:23] <Kotono> OOC: K:A. Also, how close are yo ugetting to the spear guy?
[20:24] <Alicia> OOC: I'll stay 30 feet away if I can help it

06[20:25] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+30 little dude and gets 32." [1d20=2]
[20:25] <Alicia> OOC: divine might
[20:26] <Alicia> OOC: also, are they evil?
[20:26] <Kotono> OOC: No. Hit the spear guy, missed the gnome-statue creature.
[20:26] <Alicia> roll 1d8+26+1d6+1d6
06[20:26] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d8+26+1d6+1d6 and gets 39." [1d8=6][1d6=2][1d6=5]
[20:27] <Kotono> Alicia hurls her blade forth, cutting into the spear bearer, Hellstriker bouncing back and forth amid the blades of force as it returns to Alicia! Amaryl winces and manuvers out of the way and to the side, sending a four-set of arrows at the spear bearer, getting to just within 30 feet of it!
[20:27] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
06[20:27] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 and gets 31." [1d20=13]

[20:28] <Kotono> roll 2d8+8+3d6
06[20:28] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d8+8+3d6 and gets 27." [2d8=4, 7][3d6=5, 2, 1]
[20:28] <Kotono> A pair of arrows pierce the spear bearer lightly, struggling to get past it's cobbled together armor! OOC: Statue 1 is up.
[20:30] <Kotono> "Cease," the statue speaks in Gnomish, before calling on arcane power! "You who strike against us, lose an eye for an eye!" With that, a great word of power strikes Alicia!
[20:30] <Kotono> roll 1d4+1
06[20:30] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d4+1 and gets 3." [1d4=2]
[20:30] <Alicia> OOC: spellfiring it if I can
[20:30] <Kotono> OOC: Go ahead.
[20:30] <Kotono> OOC: Seven levels.
[20:31] <Kotono> Yet Alicia absorbs the magic, stopping it form robbing her eyes of form and vision! A moment later, five magical missiles follow, slamming Alicia!
[20:31] <Kotono> roll 5d4+5
06[20:31] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 5d4+5 and gets 19." [5d4=2, 1, 4, 3, 4]
[20:31] <Alicia> OOC: shield lol
[20:31] <Kotono> Yet Alicia's shield magic stops all five missiles as well, disrupting and dispelling the force projectiles in motes of transparent light! OOC: Polly.
[20:32] <Kotono> Pollyanna stays where she is, readying off one single, focused arrow!
[20:32] <Kotono> roll 1d20+26 (+2 helmet, precise shot)
06[20:32] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+26 (+2 helmet, precise shot) and gets 44." [1d20=18]
[20:33] <Kotono> roll 1d8+14+3d8
06[20:33] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8+14+3d8 and gets 35." [1d8=8][3d8=4, 5, 4]
[20:33] <Kotono> The shot is well aimed, landing right in the gut of the creature! It doesn't seem to notice, howling fury instead! OOC: SEira and Doanld are up.
06[20:35] * Seira darts out of range, Stoneskin finally coming to her protection, and gestures at the metal trio! An arcane word later, a wave of flame envelops all three, boosted to its limits!
01[20:36] <Seira> OOC: Moving 10ft back, using a cone of fire
01[20:36] <Seira> roll 18d6
06[20:36] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 18d6 and gets 53." [18d6=2, 4, 2, 1, 3, 4, 3, 2, 5, 2, 1, 3, 3, 5, 4, 5, 1, 3]
[20:36] <Kotono> roll 1d20+20
06[20:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+20 and gets 23." [1d20=3]
[20:36] <Kotono> OOC: DC?
01[20:37] <Seira> OOC: Apologies, DC is 26

03[20:38] * Taishyr is now known as Demedais
[20:38] <Kotono> The flaming cone horribly scorches the spear bearer, making it burnt and blackened! As it's caught dead on in it, the two metal gnomes don't even seem to notice, untouched by the intense heat! OOC: Doing anything else or is that it, Seira?
01[20:40] <Seira> OOC: That's it for me
[20:41] <Kotono> "Damn," Donald mutters, making arcane gestures and channeling powers unknown! "Anyw ay to get rid of those weapons around it?"
[20:41] <Kotono> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
01[20:41] <Seira> "I wouldn't suggest approaching the creepy spear guy," she cautions, eyeing him while holding her sword ready. "How about a ranged attack?"
06[20:41] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+14 ranged touch and gets 22." [1d20=8]
[20:42] <Kotono> roll 1d20+13 fort
06[20:42] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+13 fort and gets 28." [1d20=15]
[20:43] <Kotono> A black beam strikes the armored spear bearer, slowing it down and weakening it's movements! OOC: Statue 2 is up.
[20:43] <Kotono> "Cease," It repeats, walking up. It touches the spear bearer...
[20:43] <Kotono> roll 2d6 ow
06[20:43] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d6 ow and gets 2." [2d6=1, 1]

06[20:44] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 concentration needed, though I think it auto makes this due to damage of pathetic. and gets 30." [1d20=8]
[20:44] <Kotono> With a glow of energy, the wounds of the spear bearer are gone! As it withdraws it's chipped hand, magical missiles fly in a 5 pack at Donald, striking him hard!
[20:44] <Kotono> roll 5d4+5
06[20:44] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 5d4+5 and gets 16." [5d4=2, 4, 1, 1, 3]
[20:45] <Kotono> Donald takes them in the arm, shielding his body from the worst of the damage! OOC: Deme.
01[20:46] <Seira> "Don't let those statues do it again!" Seira calls over to Pollyanna and Amaryl. "Or we'll never be done with this!"
[20:46] <Alicia> "Pollyanna, Amaryl! Keep an eye on the little ones and shoot them if they try to cast again!" Alicia snaps as she prepares for a likely painful melee.
[20:46] <Kotono> "Got it," Amaryl calls back, as the two archers ready themselves.
06[20:49] * Demedais grimaces at this newest trouble, first bringing up his aura of protection. "Amaryl, Pollyanna! Prepare to strike them if they t- Okay!" With that, he quickly snaps off a few words of prayer for Amaryl and Pollyanna, before drawing his sword! OOC: Protection Devotion, Blessed Aim (+2 to hit (morale) for ranged attack rolls within 50 ft.)
[20:50] <Demedais> OOC: Hold on.
06[20:52] * Demedais grimaces at this newest trouble, first bringing up his aura of protection. "Amaryl, Pollyanna! Prepare to strike them if they t- Okay!" With that, he raises his hand at the healing gnomebot, letting a ray of bright energy loose before drawing his sword! OOC: Searing Light.
[20:52] <Demedais> roll 1d20+15 touch, ranged
06[20:52] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+15 touch, ranged and gets 34." [1d20=19]

[20:54] <Kotono> The bright beam of light glitters with massive radiance, striking the healing gnome-statue hard! It's arm is chipped and half melted by the powerful ray! OOC: OOC: Spearguy is up.
[20:55] <Kotono> "Dieeee!" It cries, as a ringed wall of blades engulfs Donald! OOC: He gets ref.
[20:56] <Kotono> roll 1d20+6
06[20:56] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+6 and gets 13." [1d20=7]

[20:56] <Kotono> roll 54*1.5
06[20:56] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 54*1.5 and gets 81."
[20:58] <Kotono> The barrier shreds Donald apart, ripping him horrifically! He staggers out of it, shining armor stained red and his entire posture wobbling back and forth! A moment later, the creature continues it's attack on Seira, approaching to within ten feet of her! OOC: Will, seira. It's now twenty feet from Donald/Alicia/Polly.
01[20:58] <Seira> roll 1d20+28
06[20:58] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+28 and gets 40." [1d20=12]
[20:59] <Kotono> > roll 1d20+28 (-5 PA)
[20:59] <Kotono> roll 1d20+28 (-5 PA)
06[20:59] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+28 (-5 PA) and gets 43." [1d20=15]
[20:59] <Kotono> OOC: AC, Seira?
01[20:59] <Seira> OOC: 45! More if near Deme.
[21:00] <Kotono> Seira is able to duck the spear by a hairsbreath, avoiding being impaled on it's rainbow tip! OOC: Alicia.
[21:01] <Alicia> "Hang on Donald!" Alicia quickly moves over to the winged elf, releasing a potent burst of healing spellfire into his ravaged form as she makes contact!
[21:01] <Alicia> roll 18d4+18
06[21:01] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 18d4+18 and gets 54." [18d4=3, 4, 2, 2, 3, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2]
[21:02] <Kotono> Donald's wounds mostly heal, restored and refreshed! He grins to Alicia as the wall of whirling blades spins within a few feet of them! "Thanks," He glares at the spear bearer, "Let's try to finish it before it can do that again!" OOC: Amaryl's up, holding to interrupt statues.
[21:03] <Kotono> The statue gathers in more energy, "Cease," it speaks, Amaryl countering with a bevy of arrows!
[21:04] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
[21:04] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
[21:04] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
06[21:04] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 and gets 34." [1d20=16]
06[21:04] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 and gets 32." [1d20=14]

06[21:04] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8+4 and gets 7." [1d8=3]
[21:04] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22 concentration
06[21:04] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 concentration and gets 27." [1d20=5]
[21:07] <Kotono> The arrow hits, but does little to stop the magic that comes forth, it's concentration like the iron that makes up it's body! "Be frozen!" A freezing ray erupts from it's fingers, going for Pollyanna!
[21:07] <Kotono> roll 1d20+11 touch
06[21:07] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+11 touch and gets 20." [1d20=9]
[21:08] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 39." [1d100=39]
[21:08] <Kotono> roll 15d6 cold damage on Pollyanna
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 15d6 cold damage on Pollyanna and gets 48." [15d6=6, 4, 6, 4, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, 2, 1, 4, 1, 4]
[21:08] <Kotono> As Pollyanna's body is covered in freezing ice, magical missiles emit out from it, also streaking to strike her a second later!
[21:08] <Kotono> roll 5d4+5
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 5d4+5 and gets 17." [5d4=1, 4, 2, 2, 3]
[21:09] <Kotono> The combination is enough to stagger Pollyanna back, knocking her on her rear before she swiftly recovers! Her hands shake with cold, ice lining her breastplate from where the ray hit! OOC: Polly's up.
[21:10] <Kotono> Pollyanna shivers, but keeps her aim on the statue near the spear bearer as instructed! OOC:Seira 'n'Donald.
06[21:10] * Seira winces, but breathes fire at her spear-wielding assailant, before gesturing as a trio of powerful fiery rays lance through his form! She opens herself up to attack, but that is only intended to prevent him from attacking anyone else trying to get within range of him.
01[21:10] <Seira> OOC: Does it AoO me?
[21:11] <Kotono> OOC: Yes.
[21:11] <Kotono> roll 1d20+28
06[21:11] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+28 and gets 35." [1d20=7]

01[21:11] <Seira> OOC: Does it AoO me for my empowered scorching ray?
[21:12] <Kotono> roll 1d20+20 ref first and yeah, it does, if you're not casting defensively.
06[21:12] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+20 ref first and yeah, it does, if you're not casting defensively. and gets 32." [1d20=12]
[21:12] <Kotono> roll 1d20+28
06[21:12] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+28 and gets 41." [1d20=13]
01[21:12] <Seira> OOC: At -1, surely, but still a miss
[21:12] <Kotono> OOC: Yes.

06[21:12] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+22 ranged touch and gets 40." [1d20=18]
[21:12] <Kotono> OOC: All hit.
01[21:12] <Seira> roll 12d6
06[21:12] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 12d6 and gets 37." [12d6=4, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, 4, 3, 4, 1, 2, 5]
01[21:12] <Seira> roll 37*1.5
06[21:12] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 37*1.5 and gets 55.5."
[21:13] <Kotono> A trio of rays and holy breath devastate the spear-bearer as it duels with Seira, a pair of strikes that she weaves between as she works her magics! Donald meanwhile looks back and then head, cursing, before snapping off another ray!
[21:14] <Kotono> roll 1d20+14
06[21:14] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+14 and gets 20." [1d20=6]
[21:14] <Kotono> roll 1d20+13 fort not really relevant
06[21:14] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+13 fort not really relevant and gets 16." [1d20=3]
[21:15] <Kotono> This time the ray makes the spear bearer sag even more, uttelry running on empty! The second statue reaches out to touch it again, but Pollyanna is quicker!
[21:15] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22
06[21:15] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 and gets 27." [1d20=5]

[21:16] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22
06[21:16] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 and gets 27." [1d20=5]
[21:17] <Kotono> Whatever magic it was channeling, it's disrupted and lost! An arrow is right in it's metal throat, it's actions stopped! OOC: Demedais.
03[21:18] * Kotono changes topic to 'Spear Guy(30)>Alicia(24)>Amaryl(22)>Statue 1(19)>Seira=Donald(14)>Pollyanna=Statue 2(8)>Demedais(5 GOLDEN MIKOS)'
03[21:18] * Kotono changes topic to 'Spear Guy(30)>Alicia(24)>Amaryl=Statue 1(19)>Seira=Donald(14)>Pollyanna=Statue 2(8)>Demedais(5 GOLDEN MIKOS)'
06[21:18] * Demedais grimaces, before whispering a few words to Helm and charging ahead, prepared to take the brunt of the enemy's spear as he approaches to try and cut down the spear wielder! OOC: Charging. I presume will save and then AoO?
[21:18] <Kotono> OOC: AoO first.
[21:18] <Kotono> roll 1d20+28
06[21:18] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+28 and gets 30." [1d20=2]

[21:22] <Kotono> OOC: Hit.

06[21:23] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 2d6+18 and gets 27." [2d6=6, 3]
[21:24] <Kotono> Chaging in, and resisting a terrible, mind wrecking urge to destroy, Demedais slashes the spearbearer hard! It's resisted, it's flesh tough as many creatures he faces are! OOC: It's up.
[21:25] <Kotono> With a curt gesture at Pollyanna, a whirling ring of blades attempts to puree the archer-girl! OOC: She gets ref.
[21:25] <Kotono> roll 1d20+14 (+2 heroism, forgot that)
06[21:25] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+14 (+2 heroism, forgot that) and gets 29." [1d20=15]
[21:26] <Kotono> Pollyanna dives out of the way in a panic, avoiding a dozen blades that would have minced her apart! As this happens, it's spear goes out at Demedais!
[21:27] <Kotono> roll 1d20+30 (-3 exhausted, divine might)
06[21:27] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+30 (-3 exhausted, divine might) and gets 37." [1d20=7]

06[21:27] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+20 (-3 exhausted, divine might) and gets 32." [1d20=12]
[21:27] <Demedais> OOC: 44. I get an AoO on him, I think? Or did he step back to do this?
[21:28] <Kotono> OOC: He had to since it's a reach weapon, yeah.
[21:28] <Kotono> roll 1d20+25 crit check
06[21:28] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+25 crit check and gets 38." [1d20=13]

06[21:29] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8+13 and gets 18." [1d8=5]
[21:30] <Kotono> Demedais gets speared in the side, a minor would that doesn't drive deep! The gems on it's weapon glow with light, bu tnothing happens! OOC:Alicia.
[21:31] <Alicia> Since Demedais and Seira have the large enemy under control and she can't reach the small ones yet, Alicia goes to heal Pollyanna, moving adjacent to the archer girl.
[21:31] <Alicia> roll 16d4+16
06[21:31] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 16d4+16 and gets 57." [16d4=4, 1, 2, 4, 1, 4, 3, 3, 3, 1, 4, 1, 3, 3, 2, 2]
[21:32] <Kotono> Pollyanna's wounds mend, another circle of blades just behind them, as last time with Donald! "T-thanks," Pollyanna tries to ready more arrows in the meantime! OOC: Amaryl and the first statue are up.
[21:34] <Kotono> As Amaryl fires more arrows at the statue...
[21:34] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18

06[21:34] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 and gets 30." [1d20=12]
[21:35] <Kotono> None of them hit! A moment later, "Cease," is repeated, roaring flames erupting about in squares, hitting everyone about in a fiery apocalystic storm! OOC: Cl check for Deme first. This is fire damage so it doesn't matter for you, Seira.
[21:35] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17 (+2 spell penetration)
06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 (+2 spell penetration) and gets 31." [1d20=14]

[21:36] <Kotono> roll 1d20+20 Amaryl
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+20 Amaryl and gets 30." [1d20=10]
[21:36] <Kotono> OOC: Amaryl takes half, Donald and Polly take full. Alicia takes full.
[21:37] <Demedais> "Will you stop saying 'cease', lie down and break already?!" Demedais growls in Gnomish, out of frustration.
[21:37] <Kotono> More magical missiles discharge, this time at Pollyanna!
[21:38] <Kotono> roll 5d4+5
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 5d4+5 and gets 16." [5d4=1, 2, 4, 3, 1]
[21:38] <Kotono> As the party rocks back from the flames, the worst of it generally stopped and resisted, magical missiles find Pollyanna to hit her hard! "Ugh...can we do anything about this?" she asks out loud, "Stop those damned statues harder!" OOC: Seira'n'Donald.
01[21:39] <Seira> roll 1d4 breath, forgot that
06[21:39] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d4 breath, forgot that and gets 3." [1d4=3]

[21:41] <Kotono> The triplet rays make triplet holes in the spear warrior, it's chest burnt out! It still clings to it's life, struggling to stay alive! OOC: Donald.
[21:41] <Kotono> Donald mimics Seira, sending off Scorching Rays of his own!

03[21:42] * Kotono changes topic to 'Alicia(24)>Amaryl=Statue 1(19)>Seira=Donald(14)>Pollyanna=Statue 2(8)>Demedais(5 GOLDEN MIKOS)'
01[21:42] <Seira> With the way now clear, Seira darts forward to break through the line the pair of statues hold!
[21:43] <Kotono> Hit three more times, the creature collapses down! It's body lies there, shaking and bleeding out! It's spear clatters to the ground besides it, it's life force spent! OOC: If you really wanna take your move action go ahead, Seira, since you two are going at the same time.
01[21:43] <Seira> OOC: I'll move ahead the 30ft I can, tumbling if need be
[21:43] <Kotono> OOC: No need, the gnomes don't threaten.
[21:44] <Kotono> As Seira sprints ahead past the downed opponent, Pollyanna fires off arrows at the second statue!

01[21:45] <Seira> "Nice going, Donald!" Seira belatedly calls back, glad at the result of their combined magics.
[21:46] <Kotono> This time, it's concentration isn't disrupted! A black beam comes from it's finger, crackling out towards Seira!
[21:46] <Kotono> roll 1d20+11 touch
06[21:46] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+11 touch and gets 25." [1d20=14]

06[21:47] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d4 negative level 'bliss'. and gets 1." [1d4=1]
[21:47] <Kotono> As the black beam weakens Seira, Magical Missiles fly out at Seira - but they dissipate on hitting her shield spell once more! OOC: Deme.
06[21:50] * Demedais nods slightly and charges the golem Amaryl's been working on, bringing all his might to bear in a single attack!
[21:50] <Demedais> roll 1d20+28 (+2 Charge, +6 Law Dev, +1 GMW, -4 PA) aiming for a hit to get DR bypass
06[21:50] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+28 (+2 Charge, +6 Law Dev, +1 GMW, -4 PA) aiming for a hit to get DR bypass and gets 29." [1d20=1]
[21:50] <Kotono> Demedais closes in with it, but his blade bounces off it's steel body, rejected! OOC: Alicia.
06[21:50] * Alicia takes off and flies ahead, passing above the first golem and slashing her blade across the chest of the one further back!
[21:51] <Alicia> roll 1d20+25 -5pa charge divine might
06[21:51] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+25 -5pa charge divine might and gets 38." [1d20=13]
[21:51] <Kotono> OOC: Hit.

06[21:51] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d8+33+1d6+1d6 and gets 47." [1d8=6][1d6=5][1d6=3]
[21:52] <Kotono> Ailcia carves into the first statue, having been hanging back! Meanwhile Amaryl readies more arrows, trying to interrupt it a second after Alicia hits it!
[21:52] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
[21:52] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
[21:52] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18

06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 and gets 26." [1d20=8]
[21:56] <Kotono> But as her arrows miss, razor sharp ice bursts all around! As Cease is called, ice engulfs everyone! OOC: CL check for Deme.
[21:56] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17
06[21:56] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 and gets 24." [1d20=7]
[21:56] <Kotono> Horrible ice spreads out, flash freezing the entire area! OOC: Ref all but Deme, who is immune.
[21:57] <Alicia> roll 1d20+17
06[21:57] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+17 and gets 35." [1d20=18]

06[21:57] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+8 Donald and gets 15." [1d20=7]

06[21:57] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+14 Polly has evasion if she makes the save and gets 25." [1d20=11]
[21:57] <Kotono> roll 1d20+20 Amaryl
06[21:57] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+20 Amaryl and gets 31." [1d20=11]

06[21:57] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+30 and gets 41." [1d20=11]
[21:58] <Kotono> roll 15d6 Alicia and Amaryl take half. Donald and Polly take full+ -20 ft to move.
06[21:58] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 15d6 Alicia and Amaryl take half. Donald and Polly take full+ -20 ft to move. and gets 47." [15d6=6, 6, 5, 6, 2, 1, 2, 5, 2, 6, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1]
[22:00] <Kotono> A moment later, magical missiles fly at Amaryl! However, they wink and vanish away on her shield spell! OOC: Seira and Donald.
01[22:01] <Seira> The best Seira can hope for is taking out the statue everyone can gang up on, while calling over, "Donald, you can heal, can't you?"
01[22:01] <Seira> roll 1d20+28 flanking smite from above!
06[22:01] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+28 flanking smite from above! and gets 36." [1d20=8]
01[22:01] <Seira> OOC: +2 charge
[22:02] <Kotono> OOC: Hit.
[22:03] <Kotono> "Yeah," Donald's voice shakes with cold, "W-who?"
01[22:03] <Seira> roll 3d8+11+2d6+6d8 weapon+sa+smite
06[22:03] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d8+11+2d6+6d8 weapon+sa+smite and gets 77." [3d8=8, 5, 7][2d6=5, 3][6d8=6, 6, 8, 7, 7, 4]
01[22:03] <Seira> "Amaryl!" Seira calls back, which shouldn't come as much of a surprise.
03[22:03] * Kotono changes topic to 'Alicia(24)>Amaryl>Seira=Donald(14)>Pollyanna=Statue 2(8)>Demedais(5 GOLDEN MIKOS)'
[22:05] <Kotono> Donald limps over to her, a note of angelic singing as he touches Amaryl on the forehead!
[22:05] <Kotono> roll 4d8+12
06[22:05] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d8+12 and gets 34." [4d8=3, 6, 5, 8]
[22:05] <Kotono> Amaryl's wounds heal! At this, Pollyanna targets the second statue, snapping off her arrows!
[22:05] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22
[22:05] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22
06[22:05] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 and gets 32." [1d20=10]
06[22:05] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 and gets 33." [1d20=11]
[22:06] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17
06[22:06] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 and gets 26." [1d20=9]
[22:06] <Kotono> roll 1d20+12
06[22:06] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+12 and gets 16." [1d20=4]
[22:08] <Kotono> But none of her arrows make contact! "Cease," It intones, as a powerful magic comes forth, as it's twin statue is shattered apart by Seira's bladework in the meantime! OOC: CL for Deme first.
[22:08] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17
06[22:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 and gets 28." [1d20=11]
[22:09] <Kotono> OOC: Deme's immune, and itonly has five targets so Donald's offthe hook. The rest of you need to make fort saves.
01[22:09] <Seira> "Stop saying that like it matters!" Seira snaps at the statue.
01[22:09] <Seira> roll 1d20+21
06[22:09] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+21 and gets 25." [1d20=4]
[22:09] <Alicia> roll 1d20+23
06[22:09] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+23 and gets 41." [1d20=18]
[22:09] <Kotono> roll 1d20+10 fort Polly
06[22:09] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+10 fort Polly and gets 23." [1d20=13]
[22:10] <Kotono> roll 1d20+19 Amaryl
06[22:10] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+19 Amaryl and gets 20." [1d20=1]
[22:10] <Kotono> roll 2d6 con damage, Alicia takes half.
06[22:10] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d6 con damage, Alicia takes half. and gets 3." [2d6=2, 1]
[22:14] <Kotono> Blood comes from the pores of the party, turning to foul water as it drips out of them! The entire party is greviously wounded, as magical missiles fly at Pollyanna!
[22:14] <Kotono> roll 5d4+5
06[22:14] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 5d4+5 and gets 20." [5d4=1, 4, 4, 2, 4]
[22:15] <Kotono> Pollyanna goes down hard from the missiles, winded and falling! "Dem...e.." she cries as she bounces off the cold ground, lying still! OOC: Deme, you're up.
[22:17] <Demedais> "Pollyanna!" With that one word, Deme's boots quickly activate as he runs over to Pollyanna, grasping her shoulder with healing magics! "Finish that one off, damnit! I can't heal everyone right now!" OOC: 28 HP healed.
[22:18] <Kotono> Pollyanna's eyes open as healing energy pushes into her. She coughs, eyes unfocused. "...dais..." OOC: Alicia's up.
[22:18] <Kotono> "Shit, shit, shit!" Donald curses, voice echoing around in his helmet, as more words of power spill form his mouth, "Come on magic, I need you now!"
06[22:19] * Alicia whirls around in the air and flies back a bit, stabbing her blade down at the last remaining golem!
[22:19] <Alicia> roll 1d20+25 -6pa charging/flying divine might
06[22:19] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+25 -6pa charging/flying divine might and gets 41." [1d20=16]
[22:19] <Kotono> OOC: Hit.
[22:19] <Alicia> roll 1d8+35+1d6+1d6
06[22:19] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d8+35+1d6+1d6 and gets 48." [1d8=4][1d6=4][1d6=5]
[22:20] <Kotono> With a final overhead swing, Alicia severs the golem apart! It falls to the ground, the last foe vanquished! OOC: Free act.
06[22:20] * Seira doesn't waste time in flying to Amaryl's side, so that she could restore her vitality!
01[22:20] <Seira> roll 3d8+15
06[22:20] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d8+15 and gets 22." [3d8=5, 1, 1]
06[22:20] * Alicia lands easily and trots over to Donald, "Looks like you're stuck with me," she smirks as the couples pair off, healing him as best she can.
[22:20] <Alicia> roll 3d8+15
06[22:20] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 3d8+15 and gets 24." [3d8=3, 1, 5]
06[22:21] * Demedais glances up just in time to see the golem fall, before nodding and healing Pollyanna's wounds, first.
[22:21] <Kotono> "...ow..." Pollyanna coughs, "Last one...it really too hard."
[22:21] <Kotono> Donald grins as he's healed, "Give it to me with another kiss?"
[22:21] <Demedais> roll 4d8+8 sacrifice Freedom of Movement.
06[22:21] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 4d8+8 sacrifice Freedom of Movement. and gets 25." [4d8=6, 2, 1, 8]
[22:21] <Kotono> Amaryl leans on Seira, "You're not badly hurt? That last spell hurt from the inside and the outside."
[22:22] <Alicia> "Don't push your luck," she gives him a little shove as she takes out her wand and pokes him with it to provide a bit more healing.
[22:22] <Alicia> roll 1d8+1
06[22:22] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d8+1 and gets 2." [1d8=1]
01[22:22] <Seira> "Not in the slightest," Seira whispers back.
[22:23] <Kotono> Donald grins ear to ear, "I think I like you more when you loosen up, Alicia. It's like you have to act so huffy."
06[22:23] * Demedais grimaces. "Alright. I can heal the damage to people's bodies... hopefully. Give me a moment." With that, he moves to heal the constitution damage to Pollyanna, first.
[22:23] <Demedais> roll 1d4
06[22:23] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d4 and gets 2." [1d4=2]
01[22:24] <Seira> The situation with Pollyanna seems stable enough, so Seira makes her way towards Alicia, helping Amaryl along. She slaps Donald upside the head as she passes near him, since he had surely earned it, and pats Alicia's shoulder.
01[22:24] <Seira> roll 2d8+10
06[22:24] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 2d8+10 and gets 20." [2d8=2, 8]
[22:24] <Alicia> "Huffy?" Alicia looks indignant as she slides her wand into its belt holster. "I'm nothing of the sort." She then gives Seira a grateful smile.
[22:25] <Kotono> "Oh, I don't know," donald justkeeps grinning, rubbing the back of his head.
06[22:25] * Demedais rubs head. "Anyone else need healing? We should probably be prepared before heading further in. Also, anything magical we can take with us once you're done healing, Alicia?"
06[22:26] * Demedais continues healing Pollyanna at that.
[22:26] <Kotono> Pollyanna sits up, wiping her forehead and face clean. "I could use some more."
[22:26] <Alicia> "I can't detect any magic here, sorry," Alicia shrugs. "Still, even if it's not magic it'll go well in Seira's collection," she points to the spear, going over to pick it up and slide it into the portable hole.
[22:27] <Demedais> roll 3d8+8 Pollyanna, CSW (sac Downdraft)
06[22:27] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 3d8+8 Pollyanna, CSW (sac Downdraft) and gets 28." [3d8=8, 6, 6]
01[22:27] <Seira> "Why yes!" Seira agrees happily. "You remembered!"
06[22:27] * Alicia looks over the debris from the spear wielder to see if any of the junk it had floating around it looks useful.
[22:27] <Kotono> "Say," Donald goes to nudge one of the statues with his foot, "Grab some chunks of these golems or whatever they were?"
[22:27] <Kotono> The only other thing it has is assorted, motley armor. None of it looks particularly interesting or well kept.
01[22:28] <Seira> "Lagann, anything fun we should bring along?"
[22:28] <Alicia> "Want any chunks in particular?" Alicia asks, heading over to the collapsed golems.
[22:28] <Demedais> roll 3d8+8 finish healing up Pollyanna (Chain of Eyes sacced)
06[22:28] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 3d8+8 finish healing up Pollyanna (Chain of Eyes sacced) and gets 29." [3d8=8, 6, 7]
[22:28] <Kotono> "The head of that one," Donald slowly limps over, "It'll make a good momento."
[22:29] <Alicia> "Not a very handsome fellow, is he?" Alicia asks as she hefts the metal head in her palm, before tossing it into the hole for safekeeping.
06[22:29] * Seira snorts. "Well, Lagann doesn't see anything that strikes his fancy, at least. I think."
06[22:30] * Demedais nods and begins healing the stamina damage off the rest of the group. OOC: Lesser Restoration time.
[22:31] <Demedais> roll 1d4 Amaryl
06[22:31] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d4 Amaryl and gets 1." [1d4=1]
[22:32] <Demedais> OOC: Full restoration on Seira, lesser on Alicia; eliminates con damage from both. Pollyanna now has 1, Amaryl 2.
[22:33] <Demedais> OOC: I'll fullheal Pollyanna's, then.
[22:33] <Demedais> "Seira, you still have that pearl that grants another spell, correct? Mind if I use it to try and finish healing Amaryl?" Demedais asks.
06[22:34] * Seira fishes it out and flips the pearl over to Demedais. "Sure thing!"
[22:34] <Demedais> "Thanks." With that, he aims to finish the job!
[22:34] <Demedais> roll 1d4
06[22:34] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d4 and gets 2." [1d4=2]
[22:36] <Kotono> Once the party's wounds have healed, "Onward?" Donald cleans himself off, "I think I can walk right again.
[22:36] <Kotono> "
06[22:36] * Demedais then hands the pearl back. "Any normal healing needed, or shall we advance?"
[22:37] <Alicia> "You still look a bit banged up, Donald," Alicia comments, looking him over.
[22:37] <Kotono> "Yeah, I hurt," he admits, then laughs, "On second thought, I'll take more."
06[22:38] * Demedais nods and taps Donald on the shoulder, providing some healing boon.
[22:38] <Demedais> roll 3d8+8 sac Searing Light
06[22:38] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 3d8+8 sac Searing Light and gets 15." [3d8=2, 1, 4]
[22:39] <Alicia> "Now, lets go see what they were guarding, shall we?" Alicia asks, advancing onwards.
01[22:40] <Seira> "Curious about that myself," Seira agrees, following.
06[22:41] * Demedais nods and advances as well, though sticking with Pollyanna on this.
[22:44] <Kotono> The party advances! A stair goes down, only about five steps. Past it, you come into a dark room. Here, as you step in, light sheds from the walls. In your mind, 'Welcome to Control Base 4'. is heard. Above you an image of the starry sky appears. In the air, several orbs appear. Each one has a name in gnomish 'Command Station 3, Jail Facility 4, Military Base 9', that sort of thing. Most of them have in red letters beneath it as 'Contact magi
[22:44] <Kotono> that sort of thing. Most of them have in red letters beneath it as 'Contact magics unsuccessful'.
[22:45] <Demedais> "Ah, a location list of all their facilities?" Demedais muses. "This could prove quite useful."
06[22:46] * Alicia can't read gnomish so she just looks at the pretty lights. Can she at least see magic in here?
01[22:46] <Seira> "And inspirational," Seira adds in wonder. "I've got to learn how to do this!"
[22:46] <Kotono> "Incredible," Donald goes up, "Look at this!"
06[22:47] * Seira looks for one of the orbs that doesn't have the 'contact magic unsuccessful' marker, examining it closely.
[22:47] <Demedais> "Oh." Demedais says, before glancing up. "I guess it is awe-inspiring, yes." This being said, however, he tries to spot Control Base 4's position so he can guess out where other places might be located.
[22:47] <Kotono> Pollyanna goes to sit very heavily down, resting against the wall, as she watches the lights.
[22:47] <Alicia> "Unless their facilities are on the stars themselves I'm not sure this is that helpful," Alicia opines, looking at the points of light dotted amidst the starscape.
01[22:47] <Seira> "Unless it's interactive!"
[22:48] <Demedais> "Well, I'd guess it's more a relative thing of positions." Demedais notes. "Locate one's place and you can extrapolate, I figure."
[22:49] <Kotono> There's only two that don't. One shows a black and white image. It look sto be a half collapsed room, rubble all about. Water drips down, a thin layer of it on the floor. Scorch marks are all over the room. The other has darkness - no, the darkness stops. Something rears back - the head of a green colored dragon. It peers in, as if looking from the other side of the image.
06[22:49] * Seira looks for the name of the orb showing the dragon.
[22:49] <Alicia> "It might just be symbolic - surely a map would be easier if they're going to place them to scale," Alicia remarks before blinking at the appearance of a dragon. A green dragon.
[22:49] <Alicia> Likely a very very lonely green dragon at that.
[22:50] <Kotono> 'Lake Guplen Control' is the name of it. The dragon's head rears back, then zooms in on the image...andthen nothing, nothing at all. A few moments later, red text saying 'Contact magics unsuccessful' is seen.
[22:50] <Demedais> "Hm." Demedais frowns, before glancing to the dragon vaguely. "Perhaps I misunderstand, then. And... well then."
01[22:51] <Seira> "If we're under 'Lake Guplen' then the dragon is still around," Seira mutters, before demanding in gnomish, "Show me the location of Command Station 3!"
[22:53] <Alicia> While Seira talks in gibberish, Alicia meanders around the room. Is this a dead end or are there any doors/passages out?
[22:53] <Kotono> It looks to be a dead end ot a casual inspection.
06[22:53] * Demedais looks around to try and spot any relevant information or texts that may help decode this area's use.
[22:54] <Kotono> Nothing happens to Seira's command.
[22:54] <Demedais> roll 1d20+31 spot on a hope and a prayer
06[22:54] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+31 spot on a hope and a prayer and gets 37." [1d20=6]
01[22:54] <Seira> "Hey, are you working?" Seira demands to know. "Any instructions? Anything? It would be great to know how to operate this!"
06[22:56] * Demedais blinkblinks, before going to examine the one sphere still active. OOC: Can I touch it?

[19:20] <Kotono> <Seira> "Hey, are you working?" Seira demands to know. "Any instructions? Anything? It would be great to know how to operate this!"

[19:21] <Kotono> Nothing happens to Seira's demands. Demedais goes to touch the intact sphere. It feels warm to him, like it's center sheds a constant heat.
[19:21] <Demedais> "Hm. Interesting, they produce heat. At least, this one does."
06[19:21] * Seira decides to search the room, on that note.
[19:22] <Kotono> OOC: Rolling or taking 10/20 or what?
01[19:22] <Seira> roll 1d20+29 let's all search!

[19:23] <Kotono> OOC: What's that put your total at?
01[19:24] <Seira> OOC: 38
01[19:24] <Seira> OOC: Did you use Donald's heroism there?
01[19:24] <Seira> OOC: If not, then a round 40
[19:24] <Kotono> OOC: No, I didn't. He pases then.
[19:26] <Kotono> As the party searches, Demedais is drawn to the warm sphere. He touches it, the warmth appealing. Warm...round...mmmmmm. As Demedais is distracted by it, of no help to the others, the women of the group search! They find a little slot-drawer in the dark wall, easily missed and with no identifying marks to make it stand out.
01[19:27] <Seira> roll 1d20+29 are you trapped?
06[19:27] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+29 are you trapped? and gets 45." [1d20=16]
[19:27] <Kotono> It doesn't seem to be trapped.
06[19:28] * Seira checks the hidden slot-drawer!
[19:31] <Kotono> Inside of the slot is a rolled up sheet of parchment. It looks ancient, but also still intact.
[19:31] <Alicia> Is it magic?
06[19:31] * Demedais walks over to the group huddled near the corner.
06[19:31] * Seira checks it carefully to see whether it would break apart should she try to read from it. If so, there are spells for copying the text while preserving the original.
[19:32] <Kotono> OOC: Make an appraisal check, Seira?
[19:32] <Alicia> "It's not magic," Alicia reports. "What's it say?" she then asks, lacking skills with dead tongues.
01[19:32] <Seira> roll 1d20+21
06[19:32] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+21 and gets 22." [1d20=1]
[19:33] <Demedais> "Didn't you say you couldn't detect magic earlier?" Demedais asks.
[19:33] <Alicia> "I can in this room," Alicia replies.
06[19:34] * Seira shrugs. "You have Amanuensis, right, Demedais? Let's not risk reading from the original just yet, if there's no need."
[19:34] <Demedais> "Oh. Right, then.:
[19:34] <Alicia> "Or," Alicia casts mending and taps the scroll.
[19:35] <Demedais> "I do- right." Demedais nods as Alicia taps the scroll.
[19:35] <Kotono> Under the mending magic, the map glows and seems to return to fresh and new-ness.
06[19:35] * Seira unrolls it and takes a look!
[19:37] <Kotono> It looks to be a map of the entire jungle region. The names of the various locations in the orbs are dotted about. There is one great river labelled the River of the Spirit. To th enorth and south, it just covers the very start of non jungle lands, nothing of note. To the western parts of the jungle it seems to grow thicker, ending in mountains to the far north, but mostly what looks to be relatively normal land.
[19:37] <Kotono> but mostly what looks to be relatively normal land.
[19:38] <Demedais> "River of the Spirit... probably talking about Rivya?" Demedais muses at this one.
01[19:38] <Seira> The map itself is surely invaluable, but Seira first tries to check whether Lake Gulpen Control is listed somewhere on it.
[19:39] <Kotono> It is. It's to the southwest of this location. It's a small lake.
[19:40] <Kotono> "Oooh, interesting...and this has to be worth a small fortune," Donald whistles, "I've never SEEN a map of the jungle before."
06[19:40] * Seira points out the location, asking, "So do we pay a visit to the hostile green dragon?"
[19:41] <Kotono> "Let's see. Hostile," Ticking off fingers, Pollyanna continues, "Green. Dragon. What's the obvious answer?"
[19:41] <Kotono> "Yes," Donald adds a moment later.
[19:41] <Alicia> "It's probably very lonely," Alicia notes. "But how about we worry about our more current location first?"
06[19:41] * Seira lets her eyes rove over the map, in hopes of catching something of interest closer by.
[19:42] <Kotono> There's nothing too close to the Control Base. Thing sin the jungle tend towards the spread out, Seira notices. More lik ea loose net of installations.
06[19:42] * Demedais offers an amused grin to Pollyanna, before it fades. "I'd rather handle it soon than let it ravage some of the tribes that live in this jungle, honestly. But I also suspect we have some time?"
[19:42] <Kotono> "Well, how long as it been here? Maybe we should go look them up and see if it's a problem first? If it isn't, do we really need to fight another Kondrux?"
[19:43] <Kotono> OOC: Gah.
[19:43] <Kotono> "Well, how long as it been here? Maybe we should go look them up and see if it's a problem first? If it isn't, do we really need to fight another Kondrux?" Pollyanna bites down on her lip, "No matter how well prepared we are, it's still a dragon."
06[19:43] * Seira puts the map away. "Well, useful as this discovery is, I couldn't find anything about operating this room. Let's see what else is around?"
[19:43] <Alicia> "I agree with Pollyanna," Alicia nods. "If it's just minding its own business and fraternising with the wildlife, I say we let it be."
[19:43] <Demedais> "That'd also be wise, yes; still, if it isn't a threat now it likely will be later, since it did just see a bunch of humans peer into its home." Demedais notes.
[19:45] <Kotono> OOC: Giong to look around or head back or what, guys?
[19:45] <Alicia> OOC: lets head back
01[19:45] <Seira> OOC: Yes
[19:46] <Demedais> OOC: sure.
[19:46] <Kotono> The party heads back, out of this ptah. They return to the walkways above the entrance. Only one path remains totally unexplored: The archway, with stairs leading upward.
06[19:46] * Seira checks if it's safe!
01[19:46] <Seira> roll 1d20+29 traps!
06[19:46] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+29 traps! and gets 32." [1d20=3]
06[19:48] * Seira thus proceeds ahead!
06[19:49] * Demedais follows behind, sword out and readied.
[19:52] <Kotono> The party ascends up the stairs! You walk up and up and up. On the sides of the walls are images - images of gnomish triumph and conquest. In the distance, in the far distance, something glows. It's like a point of light in the far away darkness. The darkness becomes thicker, crowding in and pushing down the light of the sunrod carried. The darkvision of the party begins to fail, down to fourty feet...then thirty...then twenty. Yet the point o
[19:52] <Kotono> down to fourty feet...then thirty...then twenty. Yet the point of light ahead glows brighter, upwards and upwards.
06[19:52] * Alicia glows herself to try and counteract the pressing darkness as they ascend. "Shouldn't we be in the lake by now?" she wonders.
01[19:53] <Seira> "Magical buildings."
[19:53] <Demedais> "The gnomes must've been crazy."
[19:54] <Kotono> "I think that part's well established," Amaryl murmurs, "Crazy, genocidal monsters."
[19:55] <Kotono> The darkness presses closer! Even Alicia's light fails to penetrate it, almost total darkness around the party! You can o nly see about 5 feet ahead of you - but yet, ahead, seemingly so close, the brilliant light above you glows radiant. Then...(More)
[19:58] <Kotono> You stand atop a stairway. Here the walls are covered with the images of the God-King. 100 feet ahead stands a glorious altar. But standing in front of it are several things. Two of them rise up from the ground - vast creatures of rock and stone. You have battled these behemoths before, Earth Elementals. These ones seem to throb with power. Above the altar, splayed and as if crucified, is an Erinyes. It's eyes are gone, eyesockets filled with
[19:58] <Kotono> Above the altar, splayed and as if crucified, is an Erinyes. It's eyes are gone, eyesockets filled with lead. (More)
[20:01] <Kotono> Standing in front of the altar directly is a huge creature, just behind the elementals and in front of the Erinyes. It is made of a silvery metal from top to bottom, it's form huge. A conical cap sits on it's head, it's expression a brooding one. It's face moves as if alive, considering. "Two thousand and three years, five months, nine days, ten hours, fourty seven minutes and three seconds. I've had that long...to ponder the true meaning of f
[20:02] <Kotono> fourty seven minutes and three seconds. I've had that long...to ponder the true meaning of freedom." The great metal giant speaks, "You shall bear witness to my answer, inferior creatures. Let His Glory be my Glory! I am the sword of the True God! On you will show the results of these long years!"
01[20:03] <Seira> "Are you sure it's not the true meaning of failure you've been pondering all this long?" Seira asks skeptically.
[20:03] <Alicia> "You would battle us in the name of a trapped God who will never know nor care of your sacrifice?" Alicia asks pityingly. "All those years have been wasted, then."
[20:05] <Demedais> "...Why did you ponder the true meaning of freedom?" Demedais asks quizzically.
[20:05] <Kotono> "Fight for your stupid God," Amaryl clenches her fists together, "Fight in the name of imprisoned innocents and the tormented souls that filled this Heavens-damned fortress!"
[20:06] <Kotono> "My purpose is freedom. That is my creation." Taking a single step forward, "Now, perish! None will lay hands on the sacred armament of the God King!" OOC: This creature is obviously not very friendly. Let's roll initiative, though you can keep bantering if you'd like as you do.
01[20:06] <Seira> roll 1d20+8
06[20:06] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+8 and gets 24." [1d20=16]

[20:09] <Kotono> OOC: Seira, you start.
01[20:12] <Seira> 'Lagann, can you eat him?' Seira asks, surrounding herself with a ring of fire after stepping away from her friends. She draws her sword, and calls upon Waukeen's gift to her in preparation.
01[20:12] <Seira> OOC: Fire Shield/Warm, CL?
[20:13] <Kotono> OOC: No. It functions as if it was empowered, if that matters.
[20:13] <Kotono> The magic comes flying into Seira! The Fire Shield springs into life, a great gushing aura of flames cloaking her body! OOC: That it, Seira?
01[20:13] <Seira> "Mithral golem," Seira cautions, eyeing the largest threat to them even as she immolates herself.
01[20:13] <Seira> OOC: Yes
[20:13] <Kotono> OOC: Alicia.
06[20:15] * Alicia takes a deep breath as she tenses and utters the command word to her boots, causing the world around her to slow... and stop.
[20:15] <Alicia> OOC: time stop, 2 rounds
[20:15] <Kotono> OOC: Okay. The magic act as empowere,d if that does anything.
[20:15] <Alicia> OOC: no variables, so still only 2 rounds
[20:15] <Kotono> OOC: Carry on.
[20:16] <Alicia> With the world temporarily frozen around her, Alicia first turns herself invisible before walking towards the golem.
[20:16] <Alicia> OOC: greater invis and move action to get adjacent to it
[20:16] <Kotono> OOC: Okay.
[20:17] <Alicia> Suitably positioned, she then intones, "Kossuth, lend me your servants to aid me!" conjuring forth several fire elementals all around the mithral golem as time begins to reassert itself, and the paladin immediately attacks with her fiery allies providing a distraction!

[20:22] <Kotono> Alicia appears as time restarts, right around the golem! She hacks and tears into it, trying to rip the metallic creature apart! Her blows are affected, yet it is impossibly tough! It' slike trying to destroy a mountain with a tooth pick, taking gouges but only going so far! OOC: Anything else, Alicia?
[20:22] <Alicia> OOC: done

[20:44] <Kotono> But Donald brings his shield up, shaking all over as good steel takes the titantic impact of the elemental's fury! OOC: Demedias.

06[20:51] * Demedais grimaces. "Donald, finish dealing with that one!" he yells, before activating his boots. "I'll close in on the rest!" With that, he rushes forward, getting to within twenty feet of the altar and the people around it! "Golem! If you want a challenge, I'll be your opponent here!" With that, his sword swings upward, prepared to try and parry! OOC: Total defense, within 20 feet.
[20:52] <Kotono> "Fine. The first one is crushed under my fists," The golem turns to Demedais, as the second Earth Elemental lumbers forward! IT goes past Donald, coming to within fourty feet of the party! OOC: Golem double-moved. Seira.
[20:53] <Kotono> OOC: Er, Elemental double-moved.
[20:53] <Kotono> OOC: Seira anyway.
06[20:57] * Seira decides to summon nasty, fiery monsters all over the elemental Donald is facing, the more, the better! Their orders would be to aid Donald, while she presents herself as a suitable target for the other elemental, enticingly just within its charging range.

[21:04] <Kotono> The overwhelming blow knocks Demedais down, like a prizefighter having taken an uppercut! He goes down, dazed and dropping his weapon! The golem roars, "This is the power I have! This is the power of the True God! To it, you are nothing but ants beneath His feet!" OOC: Donald.

01[21:11] <Seira> "Pollyanna, snipe at that erinyes and get over to Demedais! As close as you can!" Seira directs, taking over the situation that had suddenly become unfavorable to them, if the golem's words about besting Alicia are to be believed. And it seems to be getting worse, judging by the affect of its attack on Demedais.
01[21:11] <Seira> To avoid the rest of the plan from being read too early by the opposition, she merely thinks the next part. 'Amaryl, wait a bit and teleport those two and yourself, aim for the oasis. I'll follow.'
[21:11] <Kotono> Amaryl waits on Seira's command! OOC: Erinyes and Pollyanna are up.

[21:17] <Kotono> Donald is slammed hard, knocked around by the fist of the elemental! The blow pushes him several inches into the ground, plummeling him without mercy! OOC: Deme, you're stunned. Elemental 2 is up.

06[21:32] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+5 aid AC for Alicia despite it so not being relevant anymore and gets 11." [1d20=6]
[21:33] <Alicia> More importantly, they fill the space between the golem and the invisible paladin, meaning it can't reach her without dealing with them somehow first!
01[21:33] <Seira> 'Lagann, Demedais left his sword! It's your until we leave!'
[21:34] <Kotono> As the elementals uselessly distract the golem! The golem ignores the mere fire elementals, lifting up off the ground! "You're not getting away!" He calls, zooming through the air as it rockets at Seira!
[21:34] <Kotono> OOC: The elementals can AoO if they like. And yes, it's a flying golem.
01[21:34] <Seira> roll 4#1d20+6 sure
06[21:34] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 4#1d20+6 sure and gets 58." [4#1d20+6 = 26, 11, 14, 7]
[21:34] <Alicia> OOC: not bothering
[21:34] <Kotono> OOC One is a natural 20 there, Seira. Feel free to roll damage.
01[21:34] <Seira> roll 1d6+1d6 damage+fire!
06[21:34] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d6+1d6 damage+fire! and gets 8." [1d6=4][1d6=4]
[21:35] <Kotono> Amid futile blows that do little to the golem, the golem charges Seira!
[21:35] <Kotono> roll 1d20+42 slam
06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+42 slam and gets 54." [1d20=12]
[21:35] <Kotono> OOC: Any miss chance?
01[21:35] <Seira> OOC: No
[21:35] <Kotono> roll 4d10+14 and fort
06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d10+14 and fort and gets 36." [4d10=5, 8, 6, 3]
[21:35] <Kotono> OOC: This bypasses your DR if you have it up.
01[21:35] <Seira> roll 1.5*1d6+15 fire
06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1.5*1d6+15 fire and gets 24." [1d6=6]
01[21:36] <Seira> roll 1d20+21
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+21 and gets 33." [1d20=12]
[21:36] <Kotono> roll 1d6 stunned 1d6 rounds
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d6 stunned 1d6 rounds and gets 4." [1d6=4]
03[21:36] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(24)(stunned 4 rounds)>2 elementals=Alicia(23)>4 elementals=Golem=Donald(22)>Elemental 1(11)>Elemental 2(8)'
[21:37] <Kotono> Seira is knocked flat on her back, dazed and stunned! She drops the Third Resort, seeing stars! OOC: 4 elementals are up as well, as well as Donald. Seira, what are the elementals doing?
01[21:38] <Seira> OOC: The elementals aid Donald in attacking the elemental so that he could use his ONE MIGHTY BLOW on it!
01[21:38] <Seira> roll 4#1d20+6
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 4#1d20+6 and gets 68." [4#1d20+6 = 17, 14, 17, 20]
01[21:38] <Seira> OOC: And they all succeed!
[21:38] <Kotono> Donald roars as he gives a final blow his all!
[21:39] <Kotono> roll 1d20+28 (+1 haste, +2 heroism, +8 aid, +3 arcane fire 1 3rd, 2 2nd, 4 1st, -7 PA)
06[21:39] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+28 (+1 haste, +2 heroism, +8 aid, +3 arcane fire 1 3rd, 2 2nd, 4 1st, -7 PA) and gets 48." [1d20=20]
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 1d8+15+11d4
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d8+15+11d4 and gets 35." [1d8=1][11d4=1, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 3]
[21:40] <Kotono> Seeing the beast hold on, flaming lances again penetrate it deep!
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 and gets 32." [1d20=15]
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 and gets 26." [1d20=9]
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 1d20+17
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+17 and gets 22." [1d20=5]
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 4d6*1.5
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 4d6*1.5
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d6*1.5 and gets 16.5." [4d6=5, 1, 4, 1]
[21:40] <Kotono> roll 4d6*1.5
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d6*1.5 and gets 27." [4d6=2, 6, 6, 4]
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d6*1.5 and gets 19.5." [4d6=3, 3, 6, 1]
03[21:41] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(24)(stunned 4 rounds)>2 elementals=Alicia(23)>4 elementals=Golem=Donald(22)>Elemental 2(8)'
[21:41] <Kotono> Under his bevy again, the elemental crumbles into piles of dirt, destroyed! Donald then retreats back and around th egole, approaching Seira the long way, haste making his steps light and fast! OOC: Elemental 2 is up.
[21:41] <Kotono> The second elemental pounds on the downed Seira!
[21:41] <Kotono> roll 1d20+24 (-3 PA)
[21:41] <Kotono> roll 1d20+24 (-3 PA)
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+24 (-3 PA) and gets 39." [1d20=15]
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+24 (-3 PA) and gets 37." [1d20=13]
[21:42] <Kotono> OOC: AC, Seira?
[21:42] <Kotono> OOC: Flatfooted+ another -2 for stunned.
01[21:43] <Seira> OOC: That hits flatfooted, yes. But I still have DR 10/adamant and fire!
01[21:43] <Seira> roll 1.5*1d6+15
01[21:43] <Seira> roll 1.5*1d6+15
06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1.5*1d6+15 and gets 16.5." [1d6=1]
06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1.5*1d6+15 and gets 16.5." [1d6=1]
[21:43] <Kotono> roll 2d10+14
[21:43] <Kotono> roll 2d10+14
06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d10+14 and gets 27." [2d10=9, 4]
06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d10+14 and gets 25." [2d10=4, 7]
[21:44] <Kotono> Seira exchanges touches of fire as she's plummeled, body helpless as she's wailed on! OOC: Seira, stunned. Elementals and Alicia.
03[21:44] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(24)(stunned 3 rounds)>2 elementals=Alicia(23)>4 elementals=Golem=Donald(22)>Elemental 2(8)'
[21:48] <Alicia> "Donald, get to the stairs! I'll hide Seira from sight!" Alicia does a little misdirection as she flies over to the downed half-dragon who promptly vanishes, likely convincing any nearby foes to pummel blindly at the spot of ground she rested on as they remain ignorant of the fact that Seira is now safely nestled in Alicia's portable hole along with all the loot they've picked up on this journey!
[21:50] <Alicia> The elementals just jump around a bit, unable to reach the flying golem.
[21:52] <Kotono> Seira vanishes away, taken into Alicia's dark hole! A moment later, the golem slams down where Seira was, leaving deep crater marks in the floor! "You live, human?" It looks about in vain. Donald runs to the stairs in the meanwhile! The second elemental holds for the moment! OOC: Seira, you're stunned. Alicia.
06[21:54] * Alicia picks up Seira's long/short/bastard sword and folds her cloak around it before flying off sixty feet to the side of the chamber, hopefully out of reach for any inquisitive golems.
[21:54] <Kotono> Alicia does ust that! The golem slams all around it, not hitting anything! OOC: Seira's still stunned. Alicia, go again.
[21:55] <Alicia> The resort goes into the portable hole, then Alicia flies over towards Demedais's dropped blade...
[21:55] <Kotono> Alicia reaches it without incident. The golem continues to look about, silent as the elemental stands by.
[21:55] <Kotono> OOC: Go ahead and continue.
[21:56] <Alicia> It's picked up and placed into the portable hole, Alicia merely stepping a few paces diagonally to the left as she secures it.
[21:56] <Kotono> roll 1d20
06[21:56] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20 and gets 6." [1d20=6]
[21:57] <Kotono> The golem laughs mockingly, "Let my foes be driven into the dust and ground into ash!" It says in triumph. "Dead and retreated, all of them!" OOC: Alicia, go.
[21:57] <Alicia> THe elementals charge at the golem since it's now on the ground, while Alicia creeps over towards Hell Striker.
[21:57] <Alicia> OOC: AoOs for foolish firebugs?
[21:58] <Kotono> roll 1d20+40
06[21:58] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+40 and gets 53." [1d20=13]
[21:58] <Kotono> roll 4d10+whatever, they're dead
06[21:58] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d10+whatever, they're dead and gets Error: Numeric values only." [4d10=1, 5, 3, 7]
[21:58] <Alicia> roll 1d20+5 the other still lives!
06[21:58] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+5 the other still lives! and gets 25." [1d20=20]
[21:58] <Alicia> roll 1d4+1d4 it so doesn't matter
06[21:58] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d4+1d4 it so doesn't matter and gets 5." [1d4=4][1d4=1]
[21:58] <Kotono> With a dismissive slam, one elemental is reduced to putty! The other slams it, the golem not even flinching. "Begone, summoned trash!"
[21:58] <Kotono> roll 1d20+40
06[21:58] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+40 and gets 50." [1d20=10]
[21:59] <Kotono> OOC: It's dead as well. Alicia.
03[21:59] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(24)(stunned 3 rounds)>Alicia(23)>4 elementals=Golem=Donald(22)>Elemental 2(8)'
[21:59] <Alicia> Alicia carefully places Hell Striker into the hole, a mental apology for dropping it as she steps a few paces back afterwards.
[22:00] <Kotono> The golem looks about now, returning towards the altar. It ignores the elementals Seira summoned. OOC: Alicia?
06[22:00] * Alicia takes off and silently glides towards the stairway, hoping to find Donald and flee this place.
[22:00] <Kotono> Fleeing odwn the stairway, you find Donald halfway down! He's on guard, waiting and watching!
[22:01] <Alicia> "Donald!" Alicia hisses as she nears so as not to alarm him. "Where did the others go?"
[22:02] <Kotono> ""REtreated. Teleported. Not sure where," donald snaps off.
[22:03] <Alicia> "Damn... we'll try the oasis, I can't make it all the way to Balmuria. Hold on," she reaches out for him, invoking the spell to compress space and deposit them where she wills...
[22:03] <Alicia> roll 1d100 studied carefully
06[22:03] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 studied carefully and gets 41." [1d100=41]
[22:04] <Kotono> Woosh! The two appear at the oasis! Amaryl is curled up in a ball, holding her ribs. Deme is just sitting up, Pollyanna at his side.
[22:05] <Kotono> Donald promptly drops to a knee, groaning, "Far too strong, hit far too strong," Donald coughs. "How're you guys?"
06[22:05] * Alicia dismisses her invisibility. "Glad we're all safe," she announces with a repressed cough, opening up the hole and reaching down to pull Seira out.
[22:05] <Kotono> Seira is withdrawn, having regained her senses!
06[22:05] * Seira is no longer fiery!
06[22:05] * Demedais slowly stumbles up onto his feet, blinking at the appearance of Donald. "...How'd you get back? Alicia, Seira? One of- ah." A pause at this, before nodding to Pollyanna gratefully, taking her assistance to stand before going to heal Amaryl slightly.
[22:05] <Kotono> "We were lucky we all escaped alive," Pollyanna turns to her, "We blundered in against a superior foe."
[22:05] <Demedais> roll 2d8+8
06[22:05] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 2d8+8 and gets 21." [2d8=6, 7]
[22:06] <Kotono> Donald meanwhile mends ihs own wounds.
[22:06] <Kotono> roll 4d8+12
06[22:06] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d8+12 and gets 26." [4d8=1, 7, 3, 3]
06[22:06] * Alicia heals herself as best she can, recovering people's weapons and returning them where needed. "Unless Seira prepared a teleport herself we might as well get comfortable. I'm tapped for the day," she admits.
01[22:06] <Seira> "We couldn't really know about it in advance," Seira reasons. "And as soon as it struck, it was already too late to safely withdraw, since I couldn't even see Alicia."
06[22:07] * Seira considers. "I have a scroll in reserve, but I tend to keep it around for getting out of emergencies, such as mishaps. It's a nice enough place to stay, isn't it?"
[22:08] <Kotono> "We can sit here, remininsce," Donald takes off his helmet, starting on his armor, "And figure out how in Shar's bloody wrath we're going to kill that thing."
[22:08] <Demedais> A nod slightly at this, before turning to Alicia. "Next time, can we try partitioning them apart with walls of force or iron, or... I don't know; did invisibility work? If it did that'd probably be our best bet next time. Still, yes; I advanced to try and stall it from killing you, Alicia... fortunately, it thought you already dead. It got a lucky blow past my sword, too."
[22:08] <Alicia> "Hopefully Marie and my sister can hold things together," Alicia muses. "Invisibility did work, otherwise we wouldn't have gotten out of there at all - it just got lucky with its first strike," she tells Demedais.
01[22:09] <Seira> "Lagann's relic might take it out, too," Seira adds, gravitating towards Amaryl. "We don't have to seek that thing out first thing tomorrow."
[22:10] <Demedais> "And its second and third, from what I could see of the blood." Demedais replies seriously. "And the fourth against me. This being said, invisibility combined with attacking it with as much ranged magic as possible is the ideal option. I...think I can outstall it if it comes to it, but I need the first hit, something I couldn't get in that situation."
06[22:10] * Alicia sits down heavily, considering. "Walls of force would work - if everyone else were devoted to attacking it, I could counter all of its attacks harmlessly. It would take time, though, which we might not have given its self-healing abilities. Range won't help either, since it can fly."
01[22:11] <Seira> "Magic against supergolems? Well, I suppose I do have a spell that should work well...."
[22:11] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
06[22:11] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 and gets 30." [1d20=12]
[22:11] <Kotono> "Mithral Golems," Donald takes off his breastplate, thinking, "Don't they have some tie to Eladrin? I sort of remember something like that in a book I read."
[22:12] <Demedais> "...it can fly." Demedais repeats bemusedly, before sighing. "Okay, then let's avoid the thing for now. Once we've recovered here, we can go to see if whatever area you guys were exploring down the second elevator is clear yet?"
[22:13] <Alicia> "I think I read the same book," Alicia nods to Donald. "But it never mentioned any weaknesses we could exploit. Seeing if Lagann's artifact could help sounds good to me, though."
01[22:13] <Seira> roll 1d20+26
06[22:13] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+26 and gets 31." [1d20=5]
01[22:13] <Seira> "Plus we still need to try and scry on that evil cat, and examine the portal... lots to do!"
06[22:14] * Demedais grumbles something, before looking around. "Anyone else need healing?"
[22:14] <Kotono> "You know, we could take a day, return to Balmuria first, and see if anyone knows more about them. Elle might," Donald perks up at that, "We aren't in any rush to do it, and it beat us pretty hard the first time."
[22:14] <Alicia> "Yes. Lots," Alicia tells Demedais. She then snorts, "If it's eladrin-made I could ask my familiar."
[22:15] <Kotono> "It explains why it talkeda bout freedom," Donald sits, armorless down to his waist. "Isn't that a big deal to eladrin?"
06[22:15] * Demedais nods and moves to heal Alicia as the rest talk!
[22:16] <Demedais> roll 10d8+24
06[22:16] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 10d8+24 and gets 79." [10d8=2, 5, 8, 2, 6, 8, 8, 7, 5, 4]
[22:16] <Demedais> OOC: That's over three rounds, Restoration+Invis Purge+Invis Purge
[22:16] <Alicia> "I don't think the eladrin ethos matters. The construction may have been pioneered by them, but this golem was clearly built by gnomes," Alicia shakes her head.
[22:17] <Demedais> "Need any more?" Demedais asks at that.
01[22:17] <Seira> "Yes, the conical hat was a big giveaway."
06[22:17] * Seira pauses. "And then it opened its mouth."
[22:18] <Kotono> "Still!" Donald rubs his shoulders, "The more we find out, the better a chance we have next time."
[22:18] <Alicia> "I'll use spellfire later," Alicia shakes her head. "See to Seira and Donald first?"
[22:19] <Demedais> "Right." With that he heads to Seira, healing her as well!
[22:19] <Demedais> roll 2d8+8+3d8+15 (Shield other, Sign x3)
06[22:19] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 2d8+8+3d8+15 (Shield other, Sign x3) and gets 42." [2d8=8, 5][3d8=3, 2, 1]
[22:20] <Kotono> "Oh you know, it's not like I'm not horribly injured over here," Donald watches Demedais heal Seria.
01[22:20] <Seira> "I'm prettier."
[22:20] <Demedais> "We aren't in danger and you would've taken longer to walk to."
[22:21] <Alicia> While the men bicker, Alicia goes to forage for some fruits from the local foliage so they can have something more interesting than rations to eat while idling the rest of the day away.
06[22:22] * Demedais then moves to heal Donald.
[22:22] <Demedais> roll 4d8+20
06[22:22] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 4d8+20 and gets 44." [4d8=6, 8, 2, 8]
[22:23] <Alicia> roll 18d4+18 for Deme
06[22:23] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 18d4+18 for Deme and gets 64." [18d4=4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2, 4]
[22:24] <Alicia> roll 10d4+10 Alicia
06[22:24] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 10d4+10 Alicia and gets 33." [10d4=3, 2, 2, 3, 2, 3, 3, 1, 3, 1]
[22:24] <Alicia> roll 7d4+7 Donald
06[22:24] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 7d4+7 Donald and gets 26." [7d4=4, 3, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1]
[22:24] <Alicia> roll 6d4+6 Amaryl
06[22:24] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 6d4+6 Amaryl and gets 24." [6d4=4, 4, 3, 4, 2, 1]
[22:25] <Kotono> The night passes, rest coming well. The next morning is pleasant, as they all are at this Heavens touched outpost. The party rises just after dawn.
[22:26] <Alicia> After washing up, Alicia gathers everyone around and proceeds to teleport them all to her house!
[22:26] <Alicia> roll 1d100 very familiar
06[22:26] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 very familiar and gets 17." [1d100=17]
[22:26] <Kotono> Woosh! The party appears at Alicia's. OOC: What are you all going to do i ntown?
01[22:27] <Seira> OOC: Let's scry!
[22:27] <Alicia> OOC: I'll check my familiar hasn't corrupted the innocent half-breed too much, then sit in on the cat-scrying.
01[22:28] <Seira> OOC: Also, I'll lend Elle my book of +5 to arcana checks, and ask her to consult it under Heroism to see what she can come up with on the mithral golem?
[22:28] <Kotono> The half breed is happy playing with Marie and Jessica. The party thenafter gathers at Seira's, scrying away!
[22:28] <Kotono> OOC: We can do that after scrying.
01[22:29] <Seira> OOC: Let it roll! DC is 24 for me.
[22:29] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22
06[22:29] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 and gets 28." [1d20=6]
[22:29] <Kotono> Seira whiffs. Deme?
[22:29] <Demedais> DC is it needs to roll a 1.
[22:30] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22
06[22:30] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 and gets 34." [1d20=12]
[22:30] <Kotono> Le whiff.
[22:30] <Kotono> Okay, I'll set you guys up at Elle's.
[22:30] <Kotono> ----
[22:30] <Kotono> Elle is found in her back rooms. Said rooms are rather packed with everyone there. Books are littered about, a scroll with scribbled writing on it. "Well, the good news is that I found out some information on Mithral Golems."
[22:31] <Kotono> Donald smiles and goes to stand besides her, behind her chair. "Can you tell us? It'll surely help!"
01[22:32] <Seira> "I find that starting with the bad news is often best," Seira mentions.
[22:33] <Kotono> "First of all, they're designed by eladrins, or so the story goes. There's a few conflicting legends. Some claim Corellon Larethian gave it ot the elarin as a gift. Some say the eladrin devised them on their own, to help protect Arborea during a long ago crusade to the Abyss. Others claim a mortal wizard with ties to Arborea did instead. No matter what..." Stopping here, "It's all merely interesting. What's interesting is..."
[22:33] <Kotono> Stopping here, "It's all merely interesting. What's useful is..."
[22:34] <Kotono> "First of all, they're constantly imbued with an always active haste spell and a freedom of movement spell. It's called alacrity and total freedom, I believe. They can fly, swim, burrow, anything."
[22:36] <Alicia> "I didn't really think a web spell would do much, admittedly," Alicia muses.
[22:36] <Kotono> "I saw it fly," Donald agrees, "Took off like the air wasn't even there."
[22:37] <Kotono> "It gets worse." Elle smiles with a grim amusement, "Force effects like Wall of Force, Forcecage and the like fail against them. They can pass through them like they don't exist. Other wall spells, prismatic sphere, Resilient sphere, all of them collapse when a Mithral Golem comes in contact with them."
[22:38] <Alicia> "What?" Alicia gapes. "That's... not even antimagic can- wait. This freedom ability? Would it be suppressed in antimagic?" she asks, indignation giving way to calculation.
01[22:38] <Seira> "They literally part a wall of fire or stone?" Seira asks in disbelief. "By merely being near it?"
[22:39] <Demedais> "...Right. Good to know." Demedais mutters. "Any notable weak points? It couldn't see invisible, we know that much... Ah, do you have any way to negate stunning blows?"
[22:39] <Kotono> "I would think so," Elle agrees, "I can't guarantee it, but I think so." Now thinking as she goes on, "There's a few other things. They can stun you if they hit you, and it's very hard to resist. It's immune to most types of magic, too."
01[22:40] <Seira> "Maybe it has the means but hasn't deigned to use them," Seira mutters. "Any idea how to resist the stun? That was really the only reason we retreated. I was thinking Displacement and Mirror Image, myself."
[22:40] <Kotono> "Don't get hit. All the tomes I read say that it's almost impossible to endure."
[22:41] <Alicia> "Did the tomes mention anything about its ability to regenerate?" Alicia asks.
06[22:41] * Seira pauses. "What if I used Contingency to counter that? It might be good for a single hit, at least."
[22:42] <Kotono> "No ,but I had to dredge through for scraps. I didn't find any one definintive source," Elle closes the book she holds, "It may have further capabilities I don't know about."
01[22:43] <Seira> "It annoys me that it can literally hit through any physical defenses we have, but resists anything we try to use against it."
[22:43] <Kotono> "That makes it a very good guardian." Amaryl rubs her ribs slowly.
[22:44] <Alicia> "Not if it's fooled by invisibility. It'd make a far better shock trooper," Alicia reflects. "How could anyone defend against one of them, after all?"
01[22:45] <Seira> "Literally, too," Seira adds sourly.
[22:45] <Alicia> "Well, we might find something amidst Lagann's work? All we can do is search the rest of the place for anything that could help before we engage it again."
01[22:46] <Seira> "My hope is strong and eternal!"
[22:46] <Demedais> "... Wait."
[22:46] <Demedais> Demedais pauses. "It failed to spot the invisible... Alicia, did you see anything on the altar?"
[22:47] <Alicia> "I didn't particularly pay any attention, I confess," Alicia replies. That was the sort of thing she normally leaves till after the fight to worry about, after all.
[22:48] <Demedais> "... While I know what I'm about to say will go completely against instinct for, well, all but one of us, why don't we just have someone go invisibile, search the room, and leave it? Why bother fighting it right now?"
01[22:48] <Seira> "I could search it, sure," Seira agrees. "It should be easy enough to leave, if need be."
[22:49] <Demedais> "Alright." Demedais nods. "We'd probably want someone else present that can warp out if it gets messy, but that seems like a good plan of approach for this. For all we know it's weak to the First Resort."
[22:49] <Alicia> "If you want," Alicia shrugs.
[22:50] <Demedais> "...alternately, it's holding the First Resort or something, but it still seems like a better way to approach this than just running at it. Knowing that it's not able to cover invisibility... Perhaps that's how they used to get things past it? I don't know.
[22:51] <Alicia> "I think it would've cheerfully let its gnomish masters do as they pleased. Who would use a guardian that would turn them into a bloody smear unless they hid from it?"
[22:53] <Demedais> "Those who were paranoid about someone coming in in a disguise vis-a-vis magic?" Demedais shrugs.
[22:53] <Demedais> "Just looking like someone isn't enough, thanks to magic."
[22:54] <Alicia> "But... invisibility is just as easy to do..." Alicia boggles.
[22:54] <Demedais> "And yet we didn't think of using it to search the room. The only reason it came up was because you used it for your attack routine."
[22:54] <Demedais> "But whatever works; we've got a plan now, so..."

Corwin · March 28, 2012, 03:28:04 PM

[19:15] <Kotono> Okay. To get this out of the way now, where were you guys going to TP back to? Steel Jungle or...?
01[19:16] <Seira> Let's TP to the corridor where magic works normally, and just leave it and go look at the portal?
[19:16] <Alicia> Yes.
[19:16] <Alicia> roll 1d100 to oasis, studied carefully
06[19:16] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 to oasis, studied carefully and gets 76." [1d100=76]
[19:17] <Kotono> Okay. Roll your D100s to see if you guy off course, yeah. If you go off course we'll deal then.
01[19:17] <Seira> After that, we could check on the lava cave thing, and to cap it all off sneak into mithral golem room under invis, get some slime, and TP back.
03[19:17] * xorntoro is now known as Demedais
[19:17] <Kotono> This is really just an FYI - Hi Deme! - but you guys can use very familiar for the oasis. You've been ther ea ton now.
[19:18] <Alicia> roll 1d100 place we fought ragewalker and minigolem casters seen once
06[19:18] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 place we fought ragewalker and minigolem casters seen once and gets 43." [1d100=43]
[19:19] <Kotono> Okay, we'll start ther ein just a moment!
[19:19] <Kotono> ------------------------------------------------(Teleporting Kos!)--
[19:27] <Kotono> Wooosh! The party appears in the hallway without incident. It'sq uiet here, only the wreckage of the battle lying about.
[19:28] <Alicia> "Okay, so do we try the portal or the steam chamber first?" Alicia asks, looking around on arrival.
01[19:29] <Seira> "The portal," Seira suggests. "I actually have an idea what to expect there, unlike with the steam chamber."
06[19:29] * Demedais nods at this. "Alright, then."
06[19:30] * Alicia has no objections and sets off towards it.
[19:30] <Kotono> The party walks back, returning to the portal. The ruin is quiet - th eopposition seems to be in retreat, no problems encountered on the way. The portal awaits, as seen before.
01[19:31] <Seira> The Analyze Portal spell exists to analyze portals! And Demedais can surely alert them if the painting that seemed to be eyeing him last time does it again.
01[19:31] <Seira> OOC: CL?
06[19:31] * Demedais specifically watches the painting. "Idly, Alicia, can you sense magic here or is this also warded?"
[19:32] <Alicia> "I can, unless the painting is specifically warded itself," Alicia replies, giving it a glance. "I checked it yesterday, remember."
[19:33] <Kotono> OOC: Go for it and declare which use, Seira. Deme, youc an make a spot check if your'e looking aroun.d
[19:34] <Demedais> "Right, I remember that but wasn't sure... Never mind. Apologies." With that, he glances around!
[19:34] <Demedais> roll 1d20+31
06[19:34] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+31 and gets 50." [1d20=19]
01[19:35] <Seira> OOC: It's pretty much an order. I'll go with the standard one of key to activate/special circumstances regarding use/one way or two/a glimpse of the target/is it random/is it variable/is it creature-only/is it malfunctioning
01[19:40] <Seira> "Well, it leads to some sort of room and the password is 'metal', so maybe it's actually connected to the lava place?" Seira says out loud, placing her crystal lens and mirror away. "Interestingly enough, it's in perfect working order and lacks traps of any kind. Plus it still works both ways!"
06[19:40] * Demedais rubs his head in annoyance while staring at the picture for a few seconds longer, before glancing around to see if the other pictures are acting subversive.
[19:40] <Alicia> "Shall we brave it, then?" Alicia asks.
06[19:41] * Seira shrugs. "How about just some of us go first, then?"
[19:41] <Kotono> "Who goes first, then?" Donald looks ahead, "If it's safe...
[19:41] <Kotono> "
[19:41] <Alicia> "I'll go," Alicia volunteers. "If it's a trap I can teleport us back, after all."
01[19:41] <Seira> "Amaryl and I can remain in contact throughout, and I can check the room and see if it's safe," Seira adds. "Anyone else?"
[19:42] <Kotono> "I'll go," Donald stretches, "That's three of us?"
[19:42] <Demedais> "Alright. You three go, then?" Demedais nods.
06[19:43] * Alicia duly steps onto the platform.
06[19:43] * Seira is only a step behind, waiting for Donald before calling out "Metal!" in Gnomish.
[19:44] <Kotono> With a flash of light, the three vanish! OOC: You three into #TERROR.

---

[19:45] <Kotono> -----(Assassin Ko)--
[19:46] <Kotono> The three appear in a flash of light! You stand in a dark room, a teleportation circle in the center. Ahead of you about ten feet is a wall and a plain steel door, closed shut.
01[19:46] <Seira> "Want me to recast the spell and see what the password to return is?" Seira asks quietly.
[19:47] <Alicia> "Seems innocuous enough," Alicia muses, her eyes glinting blue as she looks around. "Wouldn't it be the same?"
[19:47] <Kotono> Donald looks about, stepping out of the circle. He draws his sword, "Nothing odd that I see."
01[19:47] <Seira> "It should if it's for domestic use, such as it is, but it's a military facility. I know I'd have different ones in mine."
[19:47] <Alicia> roll 1d20+10 spellcraft
06[19:47] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+10 spellcraft and gets 23." [1d20=13]
[19:48] <Alicia> "No harm in checking," Alicia allows, going to wait by the door but not opening it while Seira casts. "Abjuration magic throughout this room, by the way."
06[19:48] * Seira nods, and decides to do a sweep of the room before trying any magic.
01[19:48] <Seira> roll 1d20+27 traps
06[19:49] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 traps and gets 29." [1d20=2]
[19:49] <Kotono> "Mmm. If it connects to that fire pit, maybe it's fire warding?" Donald taps the walls with his sword.
01[19:49] <Seira> "I don't see anything," Seira muses, before shrugging and recasting the Analyze Portal spell with the help of her pearl.
01[19:50] <Seira> OOC: Same list as before, any CL?
[19:50] <Kotono> OOC: No, you automake the CL anyway.
01[19:51] <Seira> "Password's 'Earth', this time," Seira informs Donald and Alicia, thinking the same to Amaryl. She repeats the Gnomish word slowly, separated into parts so as to not trigger the portal accidentally. "At least the minute wasn't wasted. It does indeed lead back where we came from."
[19:52] <Alicia> "Alright," Alicia nods. "Since it seems safe why don't you tell Amaryl to have the others come through?"
01[19:53] <Seira> "I would, except... Demedais wants to leave?" Seira blinks. "I'll ask them to do that, but check him for magic as soon as he's made it over here?"
[19:54] <Alicia> "I think I recall something similar..." Alicia frowns, recalling their trip through the fey-filled forest.
06[19:54] * Seira nods with a grimace, and studies the door for any traps.
[19:54] <Kotono> "Oh? What was it?" Donald starts to pace around th eroom, "Does poor Deme need a thump upside the head to fix him?"
01[19:54] <Seira> roll 1d20+27
06[19:54] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 and gets 36." [1d20=9]
06[19:55] * Seira will wait for everyone to arrive before opening it!
[19:55] <Alicia> "If something has enchanted him it could affect any of us," Alicia replies seriously. "He has lots of defences against such."
[19:56] <Kotono> OOC: #dunes.

---

[19:45] <Demedais> "And if it gets dramatic over here, I can trigger the platform to follow, so I'm not terribly concerned." Demedais notes, before going back to eyeing the picture.
[19:46] <Kotono> "As long as it isn't a ticket to the Abyss..." Pollyanna eyes it, "I hope Seira's magic's right. She's always so confident, but...all it can take is one stupid mistake."
[19:48] <Demedais> "She's learned to be more cautious than she used to be." Demedais notes.
[19:48] <Kotono> "She'll be fine," Amaryl stays, standing back and away, as Demedais sees that the painting is completely mundane to his eyes.
[19:50] <Demedais> "..." Demedais' face seems to visibly clench for a second, before stretching. "I'm going to wait for them in the main hall. You two coming?"
[19:50] <Kotono> "Demedais?" Pollyanna blinks, "What's wrong? Shouldn't we be by the portal in case they come back?"
[19:51] <Demedais> "I figure Seira will notify us when they're coming back. Come on, let's just wait out there." Demedais says calmly, a steady look to both Amaryl and Pollyanna.
02[19:52] * Sierra_BeautySleep (~Melanchth@pool-96-231-70-210.washdc.east.verizon.net) Quit (-=SysReset 2.53=-)
[19:52] <Kotono> "Um, sure...oh wait! Seira said they made it and that the password on the other end is 'Earth'." Amaryl starts to follow.
[19:53] <Kotono> "Well, wait, Earth in Gnomish, anyway," Amaryl shrugs as she continues to follow.
[19:53] <Demedais> "Alright." Demedais nods. "And that's good to know if we need to follow." With that, he casually goes outside to the hallway, getting far enough away that he can't see any of the paintings.
[19:54] <Kotono> "Wait," Amaryl stops halfway down the hall, "Seira wants us to come through now."
06[19:55] * Demedais looks to Amaryl, before rubbing his head and walking back over to the portal. "Right, let's go then; that'll work just as well."
[19:56] <Kotono> The three go to the portal, "You know gnomish, so say it, Demedais?" Pollyanna stands at his side.
[19:56] <Demedais> "Yep. 'Metal'." Demedais enunciates.
[19:56] <Kotono> Woosh! In a flash of light, the party appears in a dark room! Ahead of them is Alicia, Seira and Donald, just as expected!
06[19:57] * Seira tries to open the door.
[19:57] <Demedais> "Those paintings are going to drive me insane." Demedais announces immediately upon reaching their destination.
[19:57] <Alicia> "Why, what are they doing?" Alicia asks, looking at Demedais.
[19:57] <Kotono> The door opens! Ahead is a hallway running horizontal to the room. You'd have to go out to get much of alook at it."
06[19:57] * Seira does so, intending on taking a quick look around.
06[19:57] * Demedais then looks around quickly. "I would think that they'd show some signs of... something, but it isn't anything except them shifting slightly out of the corner of my eyes."
[19:58] <Demedais> roll 1d20+31 new room spot, don't figure there's much but.
06[19:58] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+31 new room spot, don't figure there's much but. and gets 38." [1d20=7]
[19:58] <Kotono> The hallway runs to a dead end ot the right. To the left, it goes to a stairway leading downwards. The hall is dark, though there is a single window near the stairway.
[19:59] <Alicia> "Perhaps its an optical illusion?" Alicia muses. "I've heard of those, they use tricks of light and perspective instead of magic... it's actually quite clever," she smiles briefly in thought before putting it aside. "Anyway, they're probably harmless," she concludes, heading into the hallway.
06[19:59] * Seira takes a look out the window, certain that others would follow the only path out of the room soon enough.
[20:00] <Demedais> "It's enough that I'm not even sure I can trust my eyes in there." Demedais mutters, before looking out the door into the hallway. "Any idea what this place is?"
[20:00] <Alicia> "Not yet," Alicia replies, likewise taking a peek out the window over Seira's head.
[20:02] <Kotono> Outside, you see a vast, vast, vast cavern. It stretches farther than a nightmare, iron walkways and lattices stretched out over a vast, black chasm. A bit of mist clings to the edges of the dark chasm at the limit of your vision. Flying about, flying all about, are metallic orbs. They glow with a faint white light, following precise patterns.
01[20:04] <Seira> "Interesting," Seira notes, following the stairway next.
[20:04] <Alicia> Well, that's odd, but not much they can do with it for now, so Alicia is happy to head down the stairs.
06[20:04] * Demedais follows as well, curious.
[20:05] <Kotono> The party heads down the stair! It goes down and starts to twist around, going out to a small antechamber. Sturdy steel and stone doors are ahead, covered with a stylized symbol of a jagged metal sword and a barbed metal spear.
06[20:06] * Demedais glances around here, as well, figuring Seira will want to check the door.
[20:06] <Demedais> roll 1d20+31
06[20:06] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+31 and gets 50." [1d20=19]
01[20:06] <Seira> roll 1d20+27 traps, sword
06[20:06] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 traps, sword and gets 39." [1d20=12]
01[20:06] <Seira> roll 1d20+27 traps, spear
06[20:06] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 traps, spear and gets 37." [1d20=10]
01[20:08] <Seira> "We should be fine as long as we keep the tokens," Seira notes.
[20:08] <Demedais> "Seira, confirm for me that the sword and spear are loose?" Demedais asks, walking over to examine the door Seira's not at.
06[20:08] * Alicia still has hers on her.
01[20:09] <Seira> "What do you mean?"
06[20:10] * Demedais moves to grab the sword's hilt, checking to make sure his eyes aren't deceiving him again as he jostles the sword slight.
[20:11] <Kotono> The sword is slightly loose, yes. As if it was trapped to be able to strike and not pinned against the door like it should be. Demedais might be able to rip it off if he wished.
06[20:11] * Seira blinks. "Is the sword even worth it?"
01[20:12] <Seira> roll 1d20+19 appraise
06[20:12] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+19 appraise and gets 36." [1d20=17]
06[20:12] * Seira shrugs then. "Maybe. As a souvenier? Sure, let's grab them."
[20:13] <Demedais> "Eh. Okay. I was just wondering why they were loose, mainly." With that, he tries pulling the sword off after a moment of focus!
[20:13] <Kotono> OOC: Str check?
06[20:13] * Alicia resists the urge to sigh and simply opens up her portable hole so they can chuck the things in there once they've broken them.
[20:13] <Demedais> roll 1d20+12 (DC 15 Kensai Focus auto-passed)
06[20:13] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+12 (DC 15 Kensai Focus auto-passed) and gets 20." [1d20=8]
[20:13] <Kotono> Crack! The sword is ripped off safely!'
06[20:14] * Demedais quickly moves to grab the spear before his focus wears off!
06[20:14] * Seira takes her mind off the looting and tries to see whether Lagann has any fresh insight on their location or the defenses it might have. As well as how to return the magic to its rightful owner, of course.
[20:14] <Demedais> roll 1d20+12 presume a check here too
06[20:15] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+12 presume a check here too and gets 18." [1d20=6]
[20:15] <Kotono> Crack! The spear is removed as well.
01[20:17] <Seira> "Now that we're done with that, Lagann's old home seems to be in the center of it all, so let's find it and see if he can take back what's his?" Seira voices.
[20:18] <Alicia> "By all means," Alicia agrees readily, folding up the hole and going to open the door.
[20:18] <Demedais> "Right." Demedais nods.
[20:19] <Kotono> Woosh! Ahead is a steel walkway, leading as one of many paths about. On others you can see what look to be vats of metal, mostly empty. Orbs fly all about. As yo ustep in, there is an intense sensation of disorientation, the world seeming to tint rainbow colored.
01[20:19] <Seira> 'What are these orbs?' Seira thinks to Lagann.
[20:20] <Alicia> roll 1d20+10
06[20:20] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+10 and gets 26." [1d20=16]
06[20:21] * Alicia stumbles briefly before righting herself. "The wild magic's very strong here," she cautions warily. "Think carefully before using any spells."
06[20:21] * Seira deals with the disorientation better, perhaps due to occupying herself with her mental link rather than focusing fully on her senses. "Right, thanks for the heads up."
06[20:22] * Demedais nods slightly, eyes blinking as he looks around warily. "Are the orbs going to try and attack us?"
[20:23] <Kotono> As the party does so, looking about, one of the orbs approaches. In your minds, 'Welcome, superior masters. Welcome, Master Yandrazrt. State your desire.'
[20:24] <Alicia> "I'd guess that's a no," Alicia tells Demedais amusedly, before focusing her mind to respond to the orb. 'Where is the focus of the wild magic?' She's sure it's near here, and if it's an experiment gone awry they'll hopefully know.
01[20:24] <Seira> 'What is your purpose?' Seira responds, as Lagann grows uncharacteristically silent.
[20:25] <Kotono> 'Status is inoperative. Steel reserves are at 100%.' A moment later, after Alicia asks, 'The magical disturbance bank is on the other end, past the craftery.' Then, 'We guide and forge the metals made here.'
[20:25] <Demedais> 'Oh. Uh, hi. Master Yandrazrt and his two allies here-' Demedais mentally pictures Seira and Alicia here- 'will be asking most of our questions. Thank you for your consideration.'
[20:26] <Alicia> 'Please direct us to the bank,' Alicia requests. "I've asked it to lead us to the focus of the wild magic. Maybe we can do something about it here?"
[20:26] <Kotono> The orb silently begins to glide ahead, down thew alkway.
01[20:27] <Seira> "Sure," Seira agrees, before speaking out loud to the floating orb, "What caused the wild magic to occur?"
06[20:27] * Demedais follows as well, treading carefully and being glad he has his ring of feather falling on.
06[20:27] * Alicia strides along after the orb, eager to get to the root of what's wounded the fabric of magic so in this blighted area.
[20:31] <Kotono> The party walks for about ten minutes. They pass by so many things - steel vats, ready to pour. Molds of strange and familiar shapes. Rows of orbs sitting int he air motionless, doing nothing. But eventually you come to a center. In three other directions - you come from the west and the other three cardinal points are where the others come from - are like collections of paths. They each come to a smooth metal orb-building floating in the cen
[20:32] <Kotono> are like collections of paths. They each come to a smooth metal orb-building floating in the center. Paths lead into it from all. The orb flies towards it.
[20:32] <Demedais> "This our destination, then." Demedais muses.
06[20:33] * Alicia walks a bit quicker, since some of her spells will wear off soon and she has no intention of recasting them in this environment.
[20:35] <Kotono> As you approach, the door leading in fades back and away, letting you in. A carpeted hall is ahead, curving. Ahead is a hallway leading deeper into the center of the sphere. The orb goes down the curve, to the left.
06[20:36] * Alicia gives the hall a cursory inspection as she steps into the building but doesn't delay much, following the orb down the lefthand curve.
06[20:36] * Demedais grimaces, but since there seems to be little other choice, he continues following the orb.
01[20:38] <Seira> 'How would restoring the state of magic back to normal affect the orbs?' Seira wonders as they travel.
[20:39] <Kotono> The hall is richly carpeted and lit from above, light coming from the ceiling, occasionally whirling rainbow colored. It's pretty unremarkable otherwise. 'Our function has not been seriously impeded. We were cast in His wisdom through His servant Yandrazrt. We will continue our task.'
[20:40] <Demedais> "What is your task?"
01[20:40] <Seira> "The crafting of metal, I think it said before?"
[20:41] <Kotono> 'The crafting of metal.'
[20:41] <Demedais> "Right. Sorry, zoned a minute." Demedais glances around as they keep going.
[20:42] <Kotono> It's pretty mundane. Your'e slowly looping around the outer edge of the building, or so one can imagine from following this curved path. You pass by another door in and out, as you start to curve further. The orb continues down this path.
06[20:42] * Seira does wonder why the orb never answered her when she spoke out loud to it. But maybe it didn't know the answer. "Lagann really wants to go home, which is to the center," she speaks. "Want to split up, or humor him for a bit?"
01[20:44] <Seira> "He doesn't often ask for something, and the cause of the wild magic isn't going anywhere," she adds.
[20:44] <Alicia> "I want to see if we can fix the disruption to the weave first if possible... but a slight delay hopefully won't hurt," Alicia relents. 'Wait,' she mentally instructs the orb. "Lead on, then?" she asks Seira.
[20:45] <Kotono> The orb stops at Alicia's mental command.
01[20:45] <Seira> 'Is Yandrazrt's study inside?'
06[20:45] * Demedais nods slightly. "That's fine." With that, 'We shall return shortly. Please wait until our return.' Demedais requests the orb mentally.
[20:47] <Kotono> '...The inside layers are the rooms where the crafters shall stay, then the superior's offices, and then...it was Master Yandrazrt's study, but now it is a the Sacred Shrine Zeynt.'
01[20:47] <Seira> 'Yes, that. Lead us there.'
[20:48] <Kotono> You are lead deeper inside. You walk past a broad band of hallways that seem to lead into loops, ever shrinking as you get closer to the center. You then go past another band of these, which leads to an dead end with a single door. A picture of the starry sky is emblazed onto the door.
01[20:49] <Seira> roll 1d20+27 are you trapped?
06[20:49] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 are you trapped? and gets 38." [1d20=11]
[20:49] <Demedais> "This is... something's not right, here." Demedais mutters.
[20:49] <Kotono> "Ugh, feels like a goblin just crawled over my grave," Pollyanna rubs her arms, "I'm breaking out in gooseflesh."
06[20:49] * Alicia shivers a little. "You feel it as well?" she confirms. "It's like being out in a storm..."
06[20:50] * Seira mentally adds another species Pollyanna hates, and nods curtly to Alicia before trying to open the door.
[20:50] <Kotono> "I don't like it...should we really go on?" Amaryl steps back a little.
01[20:50] <Seira> "I really owe it to Lagann to try."
[20:50] <Demedais> "..." A nod to Seira. "Alright."
[20:53] <Kotono> The door opens! It is pitch black - then the roof above breaks into stars. Amid this starry sky ,a single ray of light shines down. It shows a point of light. In this point of light, you can see the God-King of the Gnomes. He is clad in terrifying power, the image painful to look at, searingly bright. An obscured gnome is being blasted, shattering apart. Aloud, in Gnomish, "It is here that the traitor and heretic Yandrazrt met his just punishm
[20:53] <Kotono> Aloud, in Gnomish, "It is here that the traitor and heretic Yandrazrt met his just punishment at the hands of the True God. Give thanks at this holy site and praise to the Eternal True God! Bow to his power!'
06[20:54] * Seira slams the door back open, staggering away.
01[20:54] <Seira> *closed
[20:55] <Alicia> It's all gibberish to Alicia, although the visual effects aren't entirely pleasing to the eye. She makes a disgusted face and shakes her head. "I don't think there's anything for Lagann in there."
01[20:55] <Seira> roll 1d20+11
06[20:55] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+11 and gets 24." [1d20=13]
[20:55] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7
06[20:55] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 and gets 10." [1d20=3]
[20:56] <Demedais> "..." Demedais recoils. "Bastard even put compulsion on it."
[20:56] <Kotono> "...Ugh." Pollyanna looks down and away. "Let's go. Let's get the hell out of here and never come back."
[20:57] <Demedais> "... I'm sorry Lagann had to see that." Demedais murmurs after a moment.
06[20:57] * Seira shakes her head, turning away. 'Master Yandrazrt wishes to regain his former power,' she thinks to the orb, finding it easier to block out Lagann's rage when communicating with another. 'Is there a way for him to do that here?'
[21:01] <Kotono> 'That is beyond our ability to answer. Master Yandrazrt crafted us, but our power is not that of the God-King.' After a few more moments, 'The successor to Master Yandrazrt was to erase our memories of Master Yandrazrt, but he was unable to overcome the gift Master Yandrazrt gave us: Will. Master Yandrazrt is not as he was, but he is still our master. We offer you these works to do as you wish towards that.'
[21:01] <Kotono> We offer you these works to do as you wish towards that.'
06[21:02] * Seira takes a moment to absorb that. 'Thanks! It's really appreciated by us both!'
[21:02] <Demedais> "... Thank you."
[21:02] <Demedais> OOC: Strike
[21:04] <Kotono> 'Will you continue to your previous destination now?'
01[21:05] <Seira> 'It seems best.'
[21:09] <Kotono> The party is lead back out to the outer hall, then along to to dead opposite of where they enter. They head out, continuing down on more steel walkways. As you do, Seira finds that Lagann's cries slowly dim, the orb going silent in her mind. After another five minutes or so, you come to a building set into a far cavern wall. The orb stops here, 'We can go no farther. In this building you will find a path to what you seek. It has guardians of i
[21:09] <Kotono> In this building you will find a path to what you seek. It has guardians of it's own; we are meant to also be a first barrier of defense against any who seek the magical bank.'
[21:10] <Alicia> 'What powers do these guardians possess, and will they oppose us?' Alicia asks.
[21:12] <Kotono> 'The tokens will keep most at bay. However, there is a fey spirit known as the Nyscander. It is intelligent, it will likely attack any non gnomes after all this time. It is weak against cold iron and cannot stand loud noise.'
[21:13] <Demedais> "Got it." Demedais nods slightly.
[21:13] <Alicia> 'Thank you, we will be wary of it,' Alicia nods, leading the way into the building.
[21:15] <Kotono> The building has a single door leading into it. It's build entirely of stone. A hall with nine glowing circles is ahead, lined up in a vertical line. At the far end is another door.
06[21:17] * Alicia walks around the circles to reach the door at the far end, attempting to open it.
[21:18] <Kotono> The door opens without incident. Ahead is a stairway leading downwards, wrapping around like a spiral.
06[21:18] * Alicia bravely leads the way down the stairs!
06[21:18] * Demedais follows Alicia, eyeing the stairs before following Alicia down with a shrug.
06[21:19] * Seira decides to keep to the back, near the archers, as her magical defenses falter at the unexpected duration.
[21:19] <Demedais> roll 1d20+31
06[21:19] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+31 and gets 37." [1d20=6]
[21:20] <Demedais> "How positively cheerful. I'll trust those orbs on the traps being disarmed with our tokens." Demedais grumbles, pointing out the murder holes to the group as they descend.
06[21:20] * Seira checks!
01[21:21] <Seira> roll 1d20+27 search
06[21:21] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 search and gets 38." [1d20=11]
[21:21] <Alicia> "They seemed honest enough," Alicia opines.
01[21:22] <Seira> "Just checking if these ones fall under 'most', that's all."
06[21:22] * Seira shrugs. "Answer, inconclusive?"
01[21:22] <Seira> OOC: Strike
06[21:22] * Seira shrugs. "Answer, positive!"
[21:23] <Demedais> "Right. Let's go, then."
[21:24] <Kotono> The party travels down the winding stair. You end up in a small room that expands out into a larger one. Ahead, the air twists with rainbow colors. Whatever lies ahead...you can't see it through the haze of rainbow.
06[21:25] * Alicia squints a bit as she advances, before just admitting defeat and pulling down her blindfold to let blindsight sort things out for her.
[21:29] <Alicia> roll 1d20+5 nature
06[21:29] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+5 nature and gets 9." [1d20=4]
06[21:30] * Demedais grimaces as well, looking into the rainbows warily.
[21:30] <Alicia> "There's some sort of earth elemental twenty feet ahead," Alicia warns the party. "Inside a magic circle... I think it's the source of the wild magic."
06[21:31] * Demedais frowns. "Not likely to be communicative, I take it?"
[21:31] <Kotono> As the party talks, Alicia can see the creature looks up at them! It peers long, before starting to lumberf forward! The party can feel the ground shake, an image coming out of the rainbow colors!
[21:31] <Alicia> "Try gnomish?" Alicia suggests with a half-step back. "Or Terran?"
06[21:32] * Demedais steps back. "Friend! Will you speak with us?" Demedais calls in Gnomish, putting away his spear for his sword, before pointing the sword away from the earth elemental.
[21:33] <Kotono> The creature roars, "I care not! I will crush you here! This is mine! All mine! I will hold all the magic!"
01[21:34] <Seira> "It's hostile!" Seira brightly translates for the rest of them.
[21:34] <Alicia> It's all gibberish to Alicia, but she'd gathered from tone if not from Seira's commentary, and thus draws her blade...
06[21:34] * Demedais nods slightly, his own sword raised up. "Very well, then. If you will not listen...!"
06[21:35] * Seira draws her own blade, but doesn't advance from past the archers!
[21:35] <Kotono> At seeing the weapons drawn, the creature pounces aforward! OOC: Let's do init then?
[21:35] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7 Amaryl
06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 Amaryl and gets 17." [1d20=10]
[21:35] <Demedais> roll 1d20+2 kay
06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+2 kay and gets 13." [1d20=11]

[21:35] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7 Polly

06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+4 baddie and gets 15." [1d20=11]
03[21:36] * Kotono changes topic to 'Amaryl(17)>Baddie=Alicia(15)>Demedais(13)>Seira(11)>Polly(10)>Donald(9)'
[21:36] <Kotono> With Seira's bow in hand, Amaryl lets two powerufl arrows fly!
[21:38] <Kotono> roll 1d20+11 (-8 PA)
[21:38] <Kotono> roll 1d20+11 (-8 PA)
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+11 (-8 PA) and gets 26." [1d20=15]

[21:38] <Kotono> roll 3d6 dur
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 3d6 dur and gets 7." [3d6=1, 3, 3]
01[21:39] <Seira> OOC: Two-handed, PA is doubled!
[21:39] <Kotono> The arrows fire with resounding power as Amaryl flees backwards, one of them embedding into the arm of the beast! OOC: Alicia and baddie are up. You wanna go ahead, Seira?
[21:39] <Kotono> OOC: Er, Alicia?
[21:40] <Alicia> "Back!" Alicia flies at the pouncing creature, intending to meet its charge head on and keep it from getting to their vulnerable archers as she drives her blade home!
[21:40] <Alicia> roll 1d20+23 charge -6pa divine might
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+23 charge -6pa divine might and gets 43." [1d20=20]

06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+23 charge -6pa divine might crit check? and gets 32." [1d20=9]
[21:40] <Kotono> OOC: Crit check, it can be critted. Crit.

[21:40] <Kotono> OOC: Yes.

06[21:41] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 2d8+68+2d6+1d6 and gets 84." [2d8=1, 7][2d6=4, 2][1d6=2]
[21:41] <Kotono> Alicia darts forward, a gigantic stab intot he creature's guts! As she does, it bellows and exhales a cloud of rainbow gas all around! OOC: Ref saves, all.
[21:41] <Kotono> roll 1d20+8
06[21:41] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+8 and gets 18." [1d20=10]
01[21:42] <Seira> roll 1d20+26
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+26 and gets 39." [1d20=13]
[21:42] <Kotono> roll 1d20+14 Polly
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+14 Polly and gets 15." [1d20=1]
[21:42] <Demedais> roll 1d20+24 presuming concentrate can apply here
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+24 presuming concentrate can apply here and gets 41." [1d20=17]

06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 Amaryl is good at ref. So is Deme and gets 42." [1d20=20]
[21:42] <Alicia> roll 1d20+19
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+19 and gets 36." [1d20=17]
[21:42] <Kotono> roll 1d100 effects only Donald and Polly
06[21:42] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 effects only Donald and Polly and gets 65." [1d100=65]
[21:45] <Kotono> roll 1d100 reroll since my 2nd edition book didn't make the comp transfer and it references a 2nd edition spell
06[21:45] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 reroll since my 2nd edition book didn't make the comp transfer and it references a 2nd edition spell and gets 28." [1d100=28]
[21:45] <Kotono> roll 1d100 reroll since there is no 28 arghfuckle
06[21:45] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 reroll since there is no 28 arghfuckle and gets 43." [1d100=43]
[21:45] <Kotono> Smoke trickles from the ears of Donald and Pollyanna, as the beast strikes out at Alicia!

[21:46] <Kotono> roll 1d20+30 (-7 PA)
06[21:46] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+30 (-7 PA) and gets 44." [1d20=14]

[21:46] <Kotono> roll 4d8+44 Dr applies
06[21:46] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 4d8+44 Dr applies and gets 57." [4d8=3, 4, 4, 2]
[21:46] <Kotono> Alicia is slammed twice and hard, the beast striking her like a red headed child out of line! OOC: Deme.
06[21:49] * Demedais rushes to the edge of the barrier himself, an aura of protection lashing out as he slices at the beast as well!
[21:50] <Demedais> roll 1d20+26 (+2 Charge, +1 GMW)
06[21:50] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+26 (+2 Charge, +1 GMW) and gets 28." [1d20=2]
[21:50] <Kotono> OOC: Hit.
[21:50] <Demedais> roll 2d6+14
06[21:50] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 2d6+14 and gets 20." [2d6=2, 4]
[21:51] <Kotono> Demedais breaches the foe's defense, stabbing into it's side! OOC: Seira.
06[21:52] * Seira lifts off the ground and flies around to slip into a flanking position, where she joins the melee!
01[21:53] <Seira> roll 1d20+24
06[21:53] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+24 and gets 39." [1d20=15]
[21:53] <Kotono> OOC: Hit.
01[21:53] <Seira> roll 3d8+9+2d8
06[21:53] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d8+9+2d8 and gets 31." [3d8=5, 6, 4][2d8=6, 1]
01[21:53] <Seira> roll 3d8
06[21:53] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d8 and gets 19." [3d8=3, 8, 8]
01[21:53] <Seira> OOC: If it can be critted, then full SA, right?
[21:53] <Kotono> OOC: Yes.
[21:54] <Kotono> Seira flies into position, stabbing the flank of the creature! It roars and then deflates, gassy rainbow air gushing out as it collapses like a pierced balloon! OOC: Ref all.
[21:54] <Alicia> roll 1d20+19
06[21:54] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+19 and gets 35." [1d20=16]

06[21:54] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+24 he's a cloud that farts rainbows? and gets 30." [1d20=6]
01[21:55] <Seira> roll 1d20+26
06[21:55] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+26 and gets 35." [1d20=9]
[21:55] <Kotono> roll 1d100 poor Donald and Polly.
06[21:55] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 poor Donald and Polly. and gets 36." [1d100=36]
[21:55] <Kotono> roll 3d10
06[21:55] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 3d10 and gets 9." [3d10=2, 3, 4]
[21:55] <Kotono> roll 3d10
06[21:55] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 3d10 and gets 15." [3d10=2, 6, 7]
[21:55] <Kotono> As the beast dies, a rainbow of small gemstones shoot from the fingers of Pollyanna and Donald! OOC: Free act.
[21:56] <Demedais> "That was simpler than I expected." Demedais muses, eyeing the gems.
06[21:56] * Alicia exhales and stows her sword on her back, before healing herself of the savage wounds inflicted.
[21:56] <Kotono> Amaryl heaves out air, "Finally. It hought every battle here would be life and death."
01[21:56] <Seira> "Our opponent died properly!"
[21:57] <Alicia> Having at least stemmed the bleeding, Alicia lifts up her blindfold and flies over to the gaping tear floating above the magic circle, observing it from all sides as she considers. "I have an idea, but I'm not sure if it'll work," she muses. "You all might want to step back."
[21:58] <Kotono> "Oh." Donald blinks as the foe dies before he can get into it. He gathers up the gemstones, before falling back. "Sure, good luck!"
[21:58] <Demedais> "Uh... Alright." Demedais says, before pausing. "Alicia, can I ask what the idea -is-?"
01[21:58] <Seira> "Seconded."
[21:59] <Alicia> "I'm going to try channelling spellfire energy into it," she responds. "It's not something I'm an expert about, though, that's why I'm not sure if it'll work. But I've got a good feeling about it."
01[22:00] <Seira> roll 1d20+24 will we die?
06[22:00] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+24 will we die? and gets 30." [1d20=6]
01[22:01] <Seira> "We may not die," Seira agrees, and pats Alicia on the shoulder. "If you don't want to spend the time studying, we might as well do that. I'll be all the way over there, as safe as possible."
[22:01] <Demedais> "Hm. I can see the logic behind that, yes..." Demedais muses. "Seira- ...right. That instilled confidence."
[22:02] <Demedais> This being said, he nods to Alicia and stands back.
06[22:02] * Seira retreats a couple hundred feet.
[22:03] <Alicia> "It's a wound in the very fabric of magic itself," Alicia replies, smiling gamely. "If this works to repair it, knowing that is all the knowledge I need to gain from this." Once everyone has duly fled, she reaches out for the tear, attempting to channel spellfire into it much as she did when unmaking the altars to Shar she's encountered here and there.
[22:03] <Alicia> OOC: 18 levels worth
[22:03] <Kotono> OOC: Make a level check, say?
[22:03] <Alicia> roll 1d20+17
06[22:03] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+17 and gets 25." [1d20=8]
06[22:05] * Demedais mutters something under his breath as he stands near Pollyanna, watching Alicia work.
[22:06] <Kotono> The spellfire channels into the tear in magic! There is a long moment where reality itself buckles, and then...the rainbow light is gone. A nine circled magic circle stands where the colors where. It glows bright once, before fizzling away, leaving only seared remnant son the ground. Instantly, you can feel a change. It's as if the constant chaos, the constant feelings of morphism, have vanished.
01[22:06] <Seira> "Congratulations!" Seira calls out from a distance, jogging back.
[22:07] <Demedais> "... And that's been righted." Demedais says simply as he walks forward.
[22:07] <Alicia> "Oh, that's so much better!" Alicia grins as she lands on the ground. "And we can see properly now, too." She takes the time to look around the area now that bright rainbow colours no longer obscure everything.
[22:07] <Alicia> Arcane sight is duly cast to aid in this endeavour.
01[22:07] <Seira> "There was supposed to be a very lonely fey around, right?"
[22:08] <Demedais> "That one was weak to cold iron." Demedais replies, glancing down to his sword. "Maybe that was it?"
[22:08] <Kotono> "Could've been changed by the wild magic?" Donald pokes what little is left of it with ihs foot. There's fading magic all around here that Alicia can see.
01[22:09] <Seira> "Could be," Seira agrees. "If so, it chose poorly."
[22:09] <Alicia> "There's no longer any active magic here. All the spells must've been related to maintaining the warp in the weave," Alicia muses. "Well, shall we explore the rest of this area or go now to check the steam cavern?"
01[22:10] <Seira> "We might as well see what else is in this wing of the place, before heading for the cavern," Seira suggests. "I'd want to put off proper exploration of the rest of this complex until Lagann feels better, though."
[22:11] <Alicia> "Fair enough," Alicia heals herself a little more before heading to the stairs. "Lets look around, then?"
[22:11] <Alicia> roll 5d4+5
06[22:11] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 5d4+5 and gets 20." [5d4=3, 3, 3, 2, 4]
[22:12] <Demedais> "Alright." Demedais nods. "Typical search of this and the preceeding area, then?"
01[22:12] <Seira> roll 1d20+27 search?
06[22:12] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 search? and gets 31." [1d20=4]
[22:12] <Demedais> roll 1d20+4 aid search (+2 heroism)
06[22:12] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+4 aid search (+2 heroism) and gets 15." [1d20=11]
[22:13] <Alicia> roll 1d20+4 I'll aid as well
06[22:13] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+4 I'll aid as well and gets 8." [1d20=4]
[22:13] <Kotono> roll 3#1d10
06[22:13] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 3#1d10 and gets 24." [3#1d10 = 5, 9, 10]
[22:13] <Kotono> roll 3#1d20
06[22:13] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 3#1d20 and gets 30." [3#1d20 = 6, 19, 5]
[22:13] <Kotono> OOC: +4 more.
[22:13] <Kotono> OOC: Total?
01[22:13] <Seira> OOC: 35
[22:13] <Alicia> OOC: 37
01[22:13] <Seira> OOC: Oh right, +4 on top of that +2
[22:14] <Kotono> The party searches the area. The bottom floor has little of note. Returning back up, the party finds that the nine circles in a vertical line are gone as well, scorched away. There's little else here beyond those.
01[22:15] <Seira> "Let's head to the cavern?"
06[22:15] * Alicia has no problem doing that, and leads the way back to the portal.
[22:15] <Demedais> "Lead on, then." Demedais says, feeling more relaxed at this point.
[22:15] <Kotono> The party makes the 20 minute walk back to the portal without incident. It awaits them, not having changed in this time.
[22:16] <Kotono> "Ah, this feels better," Donald stretches, "You know, after this is all said and done...we're going to be fantastically rich, aren't we?"
01[22:16] <Seira> "RichER."
[22:17] <Kotono> "Still," Donald crosses his arms here, "I'm starting to think. I spend 10,000 gold on a slightly better bit of magical armor. It has a use and a place, but...I should do something with the money besides enriching myself."
[22:18] <Demedais> "What are you thinking?" Demedais asks.
[22:18] <Kotono> "Donate it? I tithe to Helm when I have excess money," Pollyanna looks to Donald out of the corner of her eye, most of her attention on the portal. "I'm sure Seira's already preparing a mental speech for you about Waukeen or opportunity."
01[22:18] <Seira> "Would you like to invest it?" Seira asks eagerly.
[22:18] <Alicia> "This is certainly the most productive excursion I've ever been on," Alicia remarks. "Why don't you fund the Smurth University?" she suggests with a smile.
[22:19] <Kotono> Amaryl giggles, "I'm going to donate a little to Mystra after this, for the wild magic not doing worse to us. I'm going to donate to Waukeen for watching over Seira, too."
[22:19] <Kotono> "Hey, that's an idea!" Snapping his fingers, "Not many people can fight like this, present company excluded. Say, Seira, don't you sort of do the same thing, and there's the Temple of Mystra...and hm, for martial, there's the Temple of Helm and the Guard...hmmm..."
[22:20] <Kotono> "Don't get too carried away. It won't mean much if we all die because our gear wasn't making us strong enough," Pollyanna steps onto the portal, "And then Balmuria gets razed to the ground by devils or worse."
01[22:20] <Seira> "I'm not really going to start anything new just yet, but--" Seira cuts off, nodding at Donald. "Pretty much. You're welcome to start something for those who want to mesh the magical and the martial together."
[22:21] <Kotono> "Say Alicia!" Nodding and looking to her, "Or, lemme try that again. SAINT Alicia." With a coy look to her, "I heard some Mystrians...Mystrites...whatever, anyway, they were talking about spreading your writings. Aren't some on what you do?"
[22:21] <Alicia> "That wouldn't really be a university, though. You can't learn to fight in a classroom," Alicia remarks, waiting for someone to say the gibberish password.
01[22:22] <Seira> "Earth."
[22:22] <Kotono> "Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Alicia and you right here also help with that, Seira," Donald says, "Three great sources already."
[22:22] <Kotono> Woosh! With that, the party returns to the starting point of the portal without incident.
01[22:23] <Seira> "What it's called doesn't really matter. As long as it spreads knowledge and educates people, Waukeen would approve. As long as people's lives are bettered through it and our defenses grow more powerful, I'll join that approval whole-heartedly!"
[22:24] <Alicia> "Why yes," she smiles at Donald. "No one's asked me for tuition yet, though. To be honest I'd rather teach a single promising student than anything else - I have to teach two dozen guardsmen at the garrison and it's just not the same as one-on-one training. I've written a few books for anyone interested in theory, though."
06[22:24] * Demedais nods. "I've been working with the up-and-coming members of the Guard, but yes, having a place to train such things would be wise." Demedais nods approvingly, also nodding to Pollyanna - and nodding to Seira as well. "I'm willing to assist with the martial training as need arises. Perhaps training arcane archers would also assist?" Demedais notes as an afterthought.
[22:24] <Kotono> "You know," Pollyanna starts to walk ahead, "If you're going to call Alicia Saint Alicia, shouldn't you call Demedais Prophet Demedais or something like that?" With a little tugging smirk springing up, "It's only fair and respectful."
[22:25] <Kotono> Pointedly looking away from Pollyanna, "All of that sounds good!" Nodding ot himself, "I can think about it while we go what we're doing next...which is? Kicking Golem ass? Exploring more? Going to see that crossbreed you keep talking about?"
[22:25] <Alicia> "We're heading back in that direction, but it's to the lava chamber, remember?" Alicia tells Donald as they set off.
[22:25] <Demedais> "I don't have enough space in my day to wince at people calling me more than Demedais, thanks." Demedais winces. "Already have issues with Captain."
01[22:25] <Seira> "Let's hope there is an awe-inspiring weapon or artifact there?"
[22:26] <Kotono> "Captain Saint Prophet Watchman Grand Man Of Greatsword In Their Ass Sir Demedais?" Donald hurries along. The party returns into the crossbreeding chambers, now eearily silent. You head to the elevator that leads below without incident.
06[22:27] * Alicia volunteers herself to be one of the three going down first.
[22:27] <Demedais> "Way too long."
06[22:27] * Seira comes along as well, hardly bothered about any residual heat.
[22:28] <Kotono> "I'll go," Donald volunteers again. "The rest of you come as soon as you can?"
[22:29] <Alicia> Once the three are in, Alicia pulls the cord and down they go!
[22:29] <Demedais> "Sure." Demedais nods. "We'll see you three down there."
[22:30] <Kotono> The three go down! They find the chamber cool now, the bottom a chilly rim of ice with a blue liquid writhing beneath the frozen ice. The air is slightly misty, no heat at all. If anything, it's chilly.
06[22:30] * Demedais waits for the elevator to go down, before, "But... thank you, dear. I appreciate it, I just... don't like honorifics a lot of the time."
[22:31] <Kotono> Pollyanna smiles, "I know. I was teasing," With a winsome smile, "We're almost done withthis thrice cursed dungeon and you're still the man I love." With a gentle punch at Demedais' arm, "I mean that last part, too, with all the strange magic."
[22:31] <Alicia> Stepping out and waiting for the others do to likewise, Alicia leans in and yanks the cord to send it back upwards. "Hmm... might want to ward against the cold here," she muses, looking down the chasm.
[22:31] <Kotono> "It's not really a dungeon," Amarly speaks up, "Even if parts of it are certainly torturing or dedicated to it."
01[22:31] <Seira> "At least we won't have a problem with that, if it becomes an issue," Seira muses, waiting for the lift to return.
[22:32] <Kotono> "Oh yes." Blushing a little as the elevator comes back up, hurrying onto it, "My fam...the people I used to travel with before I came to Balmuria called any sort of thing like this a dungeon."
06[22:33] * Demedais follows Pollyanna and Amaryl onto the lift with a nod, pulling the cord once they're ready.
[22:33] <Kotono> Amaryl gets on as well. "Oh." She looks about before stretching, "I will be glad it's almost done. I want to spend a month resting and reading after this. Even if it sometimes only lasts a few minutes a day, it's so tense and often difficult." Down the elevator goes, the groups reunited!
[22:34] <Alicia> "Okay, where to from here? Does Lagann have any suggestions?" Alicia asks, looking around.
01[22:34] <Seira> "Let's get to the place with those runes and see from there?"
06[22:34] * Demedais steps out and looks around. "Man, this place is huge..."
06[22:35] * Alicia nods agreeably to Seira and starts back off towards the control room.
[22:36] <Kotono> The party travels t the control room. It is as it was left on a glance - nothing is abnormal here at all. It's very quiet here, none of the lifting scoopers taking metal up to vanish away.
[22:37] <Alicia> Any paths leading in other interesting directions? Or other structures visible?
01[22:38] <Seira> 'Lagann?' Seira tries. 'You had something here. Where was it?'
[22:41] <Kotono> There are several rainbow colored paths leading in various directions. Meanwhile, Lagann is still quiet.
[22:42] <Alicia> With the lack of any particular reference points, Alicia picks a path leading further away from the elevator, with a preference for one heading downwards. "As good as any?" she suggests, starting on it.
06[22:42] * Seira sighs dejectedly. "Let's see if there's a path leading all the way down? Or we could just jump with feather fall and then teleport back."
[22:43] <Demedais> "Either works, I guess?" Demedais shrugs.
[22:43] <Alicia> "Better to follow the path. It's more likely to take us to something meaningful," Alicia surmises.
[22:44] <Demedais> "Fair." Demedais nods, following Alicia.
[22:44] <Kotono> The party spends about an hour following various paths. The cavern is indeed cold, frozen solid. After all this time, youc ome on one thing of note: There's a building set into the rock of a wall.
[22:44] <Kotono> OOC: Gah.
[22:45] <Kotono> The party spends about an hour following various paths. The cavern is indeed cold, frozen solid. After all this time, youc ome on one thing of note: There's a building set into the rock of a wall. It's basically a single house carved into the sides, a rainbow colored path leading to it.
06[22:45] * Seira checks it for any entrances!
[22:45] <Alicia> By the Gods, anything to break the monotony! Alicia beelines straight for it.
[22:46] <Kotono> "Finally!" Donald grins as the party heads along. There's a pair of doors lead innto it, one in the center and one near the right edge of it.
[22:46] <Alicia> Centre door works for this paladin.
01[22:47] <Seira> Both work for Seira, but she checks them for traps just in case.
01[22:47] <Seira> roll 2#1d20+27
06[22:47] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 2#1d20+27 and gets 72." [2#1d20+27 = 33, 39]
[22:48] <Kotono> Inside you find a large room. Here a portal can be seen, much like the one to the steelworks off the main entrance.
06[22:49] * Seira frowns. "I don't have any more spells to analyze portals today, but the password is probably metal here as well?"
[22:50] <Demedais> "Possible. Still, let's hold on it for now? It's easy enough to return to."
06[22:50] * Seira searches the building itself, for now.
01[22:51] <Seira> roll 1d20+27
06[22:51] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 and gets 33." [1d20=6]
[22:51] <Alicia> "It might lead to something that'll help us deal with the golem?" Alicia hazards. "Can at least try the password, if it doesn't work nothing lost."
[22:52] <Demedais> "If you want." Demedais shrugs at that.
01[22:52] <Seira> "Tomorrow works just as well, but okay," Seira agrees. "Going to come along in case we need to teleport back?"
06[22:52] * Alicia steps onto the portal. "Naturally."
06[22:54] * Seira is already on it, and says "Metal" in Gnomish.
[22:54] <Kotono> Woosh! The two women vanish! You appear in a simple dark room, much like the one where the other portal lead. A door is ahead.
01[22:54] <Seira> 'It worked!' Seira thinks to Amaryl, going to open the door.
06[22:54] * Alicia goes to open the door and take a peek at what lies beyond.
[22:55] <Kotono> The door leads straight outside. You see the steel work sahead, metal pathways leading from here.
[22:55] <Kotono> "It worked," Amaryl announces back on the other side.
[22:56] <Alicia> "Looks like it's just another section of where we were earlier," Alicia surmises. "Lets head back?"
06[22:56] * Seira nods, and returns to the platform. First, she'll try "Earth", even as she secretely believes the password would likely be "Fire". In any case, that would be her next guess.
[22:56] <Demedais> "Alright."
[22:57] <Kotono> On calling Earth, nothing happens.
01[22:57] <Seira> "Fire"
[22:57] <Kotono> On calling fire, Seira and Alicia return to the rest of the party! OOC: It's 4, let's pause here. We'll pick up from here or after you've walked back tow hever next time.

Corwin · March 28, 2012, 03:28:28 PM

[19:42] <Ko-sortingloot> -----------
[19:42] <Ko-sortingloot> Okay, you guys were returning to the main hall, I think?
01[19:42] <Seira> I'll scout the altar room under invis
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> Okay, I'll set up.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> ---
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> <Seira> "Tomorrow works just as well, but okay," Seira agrees. "Going to come along in case we need to teleport back?"
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> * Alicia steps onto the portal. "Naturally."
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> * Seira is already on it, and says "Metal" in Gnomish.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> > Woosh! The two women vanish! You appear in a simple dark room, much like the one where the other portal lead. A door is ahead.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> <Seira> 'It worked!' Seira thinks to Amaryl, going to open the door.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> * Alicia goes to open the door and take a peek at what lies beyond.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> > The door leads straight outside. You see the steel work sahead, metal pathways leading from here.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> > "It worked," Amaryl announces back on the other side.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> <Alicia> "Looks like it's just another section of where we were earlier," Alicia surmises. "Lets head back?"
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> * Seira nods, and returns to the platform. First, she'll try "Earth", even as she secretely believes the password would likely be "Fire". In any case, that would be her next guess.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> <Demedais> "Alright."
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> > On calling Earth, nothing happens.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> <Seira> "Fire"
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> > On calling fire, Seira and Alicia return to the rest of the party! OOC: It's 4, let's pause here. We'll pick up from here or after you've walked back tow hever next time.
[19:43] <Ko-sortingloot> The party returns to the main hall intact. It's been over an hour since you first got here now, but it is still silent, peaceful, dead. No signs of any disturbances here anymore.
[19:44] <Alicia> "Okay, so you'll turn invisible and search the golem chamber while the rest of us wait down the stairs and out of sight?" Alicia checks with Seira as they head towards the stairway up.
01[19:45] <Seira> "Yes, it's pretty simple, isn't it?" Seira agrees. "I'll have the teleport ring and remain in contact with Amaryl throughout, and won't even snipe at the golem if I have the chance, since it's not the time to pick a fight with it."
03[19:45] * Ko-sortingloot sets mode: +o Demedais
06[19:46] * Demedais muses. "I'd suggest we stay near the entrance in case we need to pull Seira out quickly, though based on what you've all told me that shouldn't be needed. Just don't alert it, yes."
01[19:46] <Seira> "I'll be very, very quiet."
[19:47] <Ko-sortingloot> "Right," Donald says, "Here's hoping it works. If yo uget in trouble, get out of there, or a tleast scream so we can come help you," Donald readies his sword.
[19:47] <Alicia> "Best if we don't alert it by our presence at all," Alicia muses as they start upwards, intending to stop about three quarters of the way up so they'll be nearby but out of sight from anyone at the top.
[19:48] <Ko-sortingloot> The party walks ahead! It is dark here, the darkness closing in as it did last time! It's within about 15 feet as they stop, getting close but not all the way there.
06[19:48] * Seira intends to cast Blur, followed by an extended Invisibility, as soon as she's several minutes away from the entrance to the room the golem claimed as its own. From that point on, merely flying the rest of the way should make her passage very quiet.
[19:54] <Ko-sortingloot> Thus Seira flies ahead! The darkness around her envelopes her, just like last time! She appears where the party did before! In this place there is the golem, standing as it was before! This time, only a single elemental rises from the ground! However, the golem is looking right at Seira! "You have returned, intruder!" It bellows! OOC: Yes, there's a reason behind this. Unfortunately for you, the golem seems very able to see Seira. Let'
[19:54] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+4
06[19:54] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+4 and gets 16." [1d20=12]
[19:54] <Ko-sortingloot> Unfortunately for you, the golem seems very able to see Seira. Let's roll init?
01[19:54] <Seira> roll 1d20+6
06[19:54] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+6 and gets 25." [1d20=19]
[19:55] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20-1
06[19:55] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20-1 and gets 12." [1d20=13]
03[19:55] * Ko-sortingloot changes topic to 'Seira>Mithral golem>Earth Elemental'
06[20:02] * Seira summons an enormous fire elemental sixty five feet away that madly charges the one made of stone, before calling upon Waukeen's guidance and retreating for sixty feet.
[20:03] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Resolve the elemental's attack real quick?
01[20:03] <Seira> roll 1d20+14 CHARGE
06[20:03] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+14 CHARGE and gets 28." [1d20=14]
01[20:04] <Seira> 'The cheating bastard saw me!' Seira complains to Amaryl as she moves back.
[20:04] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Hit.
01[20:05] <Seira> OOC: My bad, only +12, so 26
01[20:06] <Seira> roll 2d6+2 slam if still hits
06[20:06] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 2d6+2 slam if still hits and gets 9." [2d6=4, 3]
01[20:06] <Seira> roll2d6 fire
01[20:06] <Seira> roll 2d6 fire
06[20:06] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 2d6 fire and gets 7." [2d6=5, 2]
[20:07] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira retreats into the mists, as the elemental slams into it's cousin! She vanishes away, going back down the stairs in reverse! She can't seen what's going on in the cathedral now...OOC: SEira, go ahea dnad free act for the moment.
06[20:08] * Seira decides to retreat the rest of the way, rejoining the others. It's pretty pointless to try taking another look.
[20:09] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira retreats back without incident, coming back to the rest of the waiting party. As she does, she can see and hear Amaryl, "She said that it saw her."
[20:09] <Demedais> "Bah." Demedais grunts. "How'd it manage that if it couldn't before?"
01[20:10] <Seira> "It did," Seira says dejectedly. "A shame. I could see what was past it, too."
[20:10] <Alicia> "It must have had some anti-invisibility spell cast since we last fought it," Alicia surmises. "We'd need to dispel that to have any luck."
[20:10] <Demedais> "How? The other earth elemental?" Demedais inquires.
01[20:10] <Seira> *couldn't
01[20:11] <Seira> "Seemed like the golem itself saw me," Seira responds, shrugging. "Well, can't say that was fun. Let's go on for now?"
[20:12] <Demedais> "Where to, then?"
01[20:12] <Seira> "Those other crevasses we passed along the way a few days ago?"
[20:12] <Alicia> "Our best bet is to dispel it to prevent it seeing us if we're invisible, and keep it distracted with summons and illusions while we attack it from comparative safety," Alicia suggests. "Perhaps tomorrow, once appropriate spells can be prepared?"
[20:13] <Demedais> "Sure." Demedais nods, leading the way.
[20:15] <Ko-sortingloot> The party returns to the crevasses! They're as small as they remember, last seen several days ago. You stand at the lower of the two, nearby the elevator trap yo ufought past with the undead and golems.
06[20:16] * Seira checks whether the gnomish token does anything to it!
[20:17] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Make a search check?
01[20:18] <Seira> roll 1d20+27 does moving the token near it do anything?
06[20:18] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+27 does moving the token near it do anything? and gets 39." [1d20=12]
06[20:19] * Demedais assists in looking it over.
[20:19] <Demedais> roll 1d20+2
06[20:19] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+2 and gets 14." [1d20=12]
06[20:19] * Seira tilts her head. "Maybe it's malfunctioning?" she wonders out loud. "I suppose I could just try squeezing in...."
[20:20] <Demedais> "I can cast Freedom of Movement, if that'd assist - or would you rather it on someone else so someone could accompany you?"
01[20:21] <Seira> "I'll be fine," Seira responds, recasting Cat's Grace before trying her luck!
[20:23] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira slips into the crevasse! She sees that it narrows into a little ladder going upwards. While it would take some wiggling, she could climb up it if she wished.
06[20:23] * Seira decides to give it a try.
[20:27] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira climbs up! AFter some time of it, she reaches the end. She finds out that it connects to the top level, at where they rode the elevator down in the first place, into the other crevasse found there.
06[20:28] * Seira relates her findings, somewhat disappointed as she rejoins the others. "Let's grab some slime and focus on the scrying, for now?" she suggests. "With it, we'll likely tie up that loose end, at least."
[20:29] <Alicia> "Alright," Alicia is agreeable to this plan, heading back to the lab and seeking out the location of one of their battles with the dire oozecat.
06[20:31] * Demedais nods as well, following at this point.
[20:32] <Ko-sortingloot> The party returns to the oozecat lab! There, after a bit of searching, they are able to find a few trails of semi-dried slime on the ground.
01[20:33] <Seira> It's for the greater good, Seira sadly tells herself.
[20:33] <Ko-sortingloot> The ooze is scooped up and bottled without incident, then.
[20:34] <Alicia> "Well, lets return to Balmuria?" Alicia asks, "We can go after the cat tomorrow and then the golem?"
[20:35] <Ko-sortingloot> "Sounds good," Donald stretches, "Thought...you know."
01[20:35] <Seira> "Right."
[20:35] <Ko-sortingloot> After a moment, "Wait a second."
[20:35] <Ko-sortingloot> Donald straightens up, "If that golem has some way to adapt or more allies, is it so smart to give it more time to get ready?"
01[20:36] <Seira> "No, but I can't have my contingency to bravely run away set up without taking a day," Seira responds. "And without it my chances of dying are high."
[20:36] <Alicia> "It's not ideal," Alicia admits, "But I'd prefer not to fight it without a lot of summons to keep it busy, since no other form of battlefield control will work. Since Seira and Demedais are the only ones who can cast those spells, we have to wait for them to prepare new spells."
[20:36] <Ko-sortingloot> "Good point," Donald settles down, "Let's go home then?"
06[20:36] * Alicia teleports the group to the oasis?
[20:37] <Alicia> roll 1d100
06[20:37] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 and gets 23." [1d100=23]
[20:37] <Alicia> Then to Balmuria!
[20:37] <Alicia> roll 1d100
06[20:37] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 and gets 88." [1d100=88]
[20:37] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Okay, made it home. Lemme know when you two have spells reset?
[20:37] <Demedais> "Probably not, but it's a loss-loss situation if it does have that capability; engaging now without any solid defensive mechanisms in place would be... at the minimum, foolish. You're right, it's dangerous to let it set up, but we can only hope we can do it better." Demedais tells Donald as they go.
[20:41] <Ko-sortingloot> ---
[20:42] <Ko-sortingloot> The party gathers together the next day, ready to scry! OOC: Ball's in your courts.
01[20:43] <Seira> As Demedais and she use different mediums to scry, Seira just precasts all the spells that work for several hours, and then seeks out the oozecat that got away!
[20:46] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Make you scrying attempt whenever.
01[20:46] <Seira> OOC: You're just rolling two saves
[20:46] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+12
06[20:46] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+12 and gets 24." [1d20=12]
[20:46] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: What's your DC, Seira?
01[20:47] <Seira> OOC: 24, of course
[20:47] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+12 Deme
06[20:47] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+12 Deme and gets 26." [1d20=14]
[20:47] <Ko-sortingloot> The two cast scrying! However, despite even having a part of the creature, the scrying still fail!
[20:47] <Demedais> "...is it dead? Did it teleport somewhere and end up getting killed by the dragon or something?"
[20:48] <Alicia> "It could be," Alicia muses. "Why don't you ask Helm?"
[20:48] <Ko-sortingloot> Donald, having been watching, "Who knows? For all these scryings to fail, it's either dead or protected, right?"
[20:48] <Demedais> "I might, yes. This cat is proving rather skilled at evading this. Ah well." Demedais murmurs.
[20:50] <Ko-sortingloot> "Worth a shot, before we all dedicate the rest of another day to it?" Donald cocks his head to Demedais, "Do you have one of those divinations handy?"
06[20:53] * Demedais nods slightly, reluctance on his face a bit before nodding again. "Probably wise, yes. Locating it before it can do harm would be ideal... though hopefully it stranded itself on an island or something." With that, he begins the divination, focused on the question: "What can be done to locate and defeat the ooze hellcat before it becomes any further of a danger to others?"
[20:57] <Demedais> "... Seira, we're gonna check again tomorrow, and by Helm I want the damn thing found." Demedais says with a scowl after finishing the divination. "This being said... if I understand right you may not be too happy about coming along."
01[20:58] <Seira> "That's too vague. You have to be more specific, or my unhappiness will be vented on you.
01[20:58] <Seira> "
[20:58] <Demedais> "What's your feelings on dealing with more kolyaruts?"
01[20:59] <Seira> "A good kolyarut is a dead one."
[20:59] <Demedais> "Let's avoid that tact. But yes, it sounds like he might have been tossed to Mechanus, or somewhere... close to it? Regardless, it also sounds like the scryings will work to get us to it, from the phrasing, so we'll have to try again tomorrow."
[21:00] <Alicia> "We'll need a way to get to another plane as well, then," Alicia points out.
06[21:00] * Seira shrugs, unable to care much if the creepy killers from the lawful beyond are the ones fighting a devil cat.
[21:02] <Demedais> "Probably, yeah. The phrasing was vague enough to make it questionable, but "land of perfect order" hints toward Mechanus. Regardless, we'll try again tomorrow."
[21:08] <Alicia> roll 1d4+5 Alicia images
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d4+5 Alicia images and gets 9." [1d4=4]
[21:08] <Alicia> roll 1d4+5 Demedais images
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d4+5 Demedais images and gets 9." [1d4=4]
[21:08] <Alicia> roll 1d4+5 Donald images
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d4+5 Donald images and gets 7." [1d4=2]
[21:17] <Alicia> roll 1d100 oasis very familiar
06[21:17] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 oasis very familiar and gets 26." [1d100=26]
[21:17] <Alicia> roll 1d100 stairway midpoint seen casually
06[21:17] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 stairway midpoint seen casually and gets 89." [1d100=89]
[21:18] <Alicia> OOC: off target
[21:18] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d10
[21:18] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d10
06[21:18] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d10 and gets 1." [1d10=1]
06[21:18] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d10 and gets 1." [1d10=1]
[21:18] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d9 snerk
06[21:18] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d9 snerk and gets 9." [1d9=9]
[21:19] <Ko-sortingloot> Woosh! Splash! The party stands in a cave of some sort, up to chest deep water! It's dark here, pitch black for those without darkvision! It looks to be a silent cavern, the air stale and hard to breathe.
01[21:19] <Seira> roll 1d4+4
06[21:19] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d4+4 and gets 7." [1d4=3]
[21:19] <Alicia> "Ugh... off target. Hold on a second," Alicia casts the spell again before any unpleasant local flora or fauna attacks.
[21:20] <Alicia> roll 1d100 same as before
06[21:20] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 same as before and gets 23." [1d100=23]
[21:20] <Ko-sortingloot> Woosh! This time the party appears on the stairs as planned, just a little wetter for the trouble!
06[21:21] * Seira casts Summon Monster, Greater Mirror Image and Greater Invisibility and Fire Shield in quick succession, calling upon Waukeen's aid for good measure.
[21:22] <Ko-sortingloot> Pollyanna calls on the power Demedais imbued in her! Donald checks himself over, protection roiling off him at the last minute! "Charging when you say the word!"
[21:22] <Ko-sortingloot> Amaryl murmurs shield, staring ahead, ready.
06[21:22] * Seira advances, elementals in tow!
01[21:22] <Seira> roll 1d3
06[21:22] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d3 and gets 2." [1d3=2]
01[21:22] <Seira> All two of them!
[21:23] <Alicia> As Seira casts Alicia walks up a bit more, waiting till she's about 50 feet from the top before casting greater invisibility, summoning some small fire elementals, and casting divine favour. "Lets go," she declares, ascending the rest of the way with her summons charging ahead!
[21:23] <Alicia> roll 1d4+1
06[21:23] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d4+1 and gets 3." [1d4=2]
06[21:23] * Demedais preps Sign, advancing forward to Alicia's point before adding in his Protection Devotion and his Law Devotion. With that, he also advances!
[21:24] <Ko-sortingloot> Thus the group heads up the stairs! Once again they appear at the entry way, the golem and the one earth elemental awaiting! "Once again, you come to be dfeated!" The golem cries, as the two see the party advancing! OOC: Let's do init here?
[21:24] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+2 Donald
06[21:24] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+2 Donald and gets 6." [1d20=4]
[21:24] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+11 Polly
06[21:24] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+11 Polly and gets 18." [1d20=7]
[21:24] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+7 Amaryl
06[21:24] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+7 Amaryl and gets 10." [1d20=3]
[21:24] <Alicia> roll 1d20+12
06[21:24] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+12 and gets 29." [1d20=17]
[21:24] <Demedais> roll 1d20+6
06[21:24] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+6 and gets 10." [1d20=4]
01[21:25] <Seira> roll 1d20+8
06[21:25] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+8 and gets 20." [1d20=12]
[21:25] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Roll for your elementals, too?
[21:25] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+4 Golem
06[21:25] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+4 Golem and gets 8." [1d20=4]
[21:25] <Alicia> roll 1d20+5 3 small fire elementals
06[21:25] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+5 3 small fire elementals and gets 10." [1d20=5]
[21:25] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20-1 elemental
06[21:25] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20-1 elemental and gets 2." [1d20=3]
01[21:26] <Seira> roll 1d20+7 2 medium fire elementals
06[21:26] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+7 2 medium fire elementals and gets 22." [1d20=15]
03[21:26] * Ko-sortingloot changes topic to 'Alicia(29)>Polly(18)>Demedais=Amaryl(10)>Donald(6)'
03[21:26] * Ko-sortingloot changes topic to 'Alicia(29)>Seira's Elementals(22)>Seira(20)>Polly(18)>Demedais=Amaryl=Alicia's Elementals(10)>Mithral Golem(8)>Donald(6)>Earth Elemental(2)'
[21:27] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Alicia.
06[21:28] * Alicia opens things up by gesturing at the golem, "Magic be undone!" she calls, dispelling any magic upon it, before she flies closer, positioning herself thirty feet away and just above the golem's height, directly between it and the rest of the party.
[21:28] <Alicia> OOC: targetted dispel, how many rolls?
[21:29] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: 2.
[21:29] <Alicia> roll 1d20+12
06[21:29] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+12 and gets 13." [1d20=1]
[21:29] <Alicia> roll 1d20+12
06[21:29] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+12 and gets 24." [1d20=12]
[21:29] <Ko-sortingloot> Alicia flies in close, attempting to collapse the magic around the golem! BUt nothing seems to happen! OOC: Seira's elementals.
01[21:31] <Seira> The fire elementals bravely charge forward, stopping just ten feet out of range and forming a wall between it and Alicia, lest it charge in turn.
[21:32] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Okay. Seira.
06[21:35] * Seira advances within sixty feet of the golem, opting to circle around, before letting fly with a ray that should be anathema to the golem's kind!
[21:35] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Does the ray allow SR or a save?
01[21:35] <Seira> OOC: No, just touch
[21:36] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Go fo rit.
01[21:36] <Seira> OOC: Target: one construct, SC p166
01[21:36] <Seira> roll 1d20+16 ranged touch, defensive
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+16 ranged touch, defensive and gets 31." [1d20=15]
[21:36] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Hit.
01[21:36] <Seira> roll 1.5*15d6 construct damage
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1.5*15d6 construct damage and gets 75." [15d6=3, 4, 2, 2, 5, 5, 5, 1, 5, 6, 2, 2, 3, 1, 4]
[21:37] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira fires her deanimating beam! It cascades down the front and chest of the golem, seeming to unwind a bit of it's very nature, making it fall apart a little! OOC: Pollyanna's up.
[21:37] <Ko-sortingloot> Pollyanna steps forward, firing a quick bevy of arrows at the elemental!
[21:38] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+22
[21:38] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+22
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+22 and gets 27." [1d20=5]
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+22 and gets 24." [1d20=2]
[21:38] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+17
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+17 and gets 36." [1d20=19]
[21:38] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+12
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+12 and gets 14." [1d20=2]
[21:38] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 3d8+42+3d6
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 3d8+42+3d6 and gets 66." [3d8=4, 6, 5][3d6=4, 3, 2]
[21:39] <Ko-sortingloot> The arrows riddle the elemental, earth turned to fire from Pollyanna's flaming arrows! OOC: Deme and Amaryl and Alicia's elementals.
[21:39] <Ko-sortingloot> Amaryl steps forward, firing massively powerful shots at the golem!
[21:40] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+12 (-8 PA)
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+12 (-8 PA) and gets 21." [1d20=9]
[21:40] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+7
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+7 and gets 13." [1d20=6]
[21:40] <Alicia> Alicia's elementals charge forward, positioning themselves around Seira's larger pair, two on the left and one on the right.
01[21:40] <Seira> OOX: Rapid shot
[21:40] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+12 (-8 PA)
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+12 (-8 PA) and gets 26." [1d20=14]
[21:40] <Ko-sortingloot> But both arrows bounce right off the golem, too much power and not enough aim to hit a weak spot, a third missing it entirely! OOC: Deme.
01[21:42] <Seira> 'Aim for the elemental,' Seira thinks to Amaryl. 'Anything short of overwhelming is wasted on the golem.'
[21:43] <Ko-sortingloot> 'Got it,' Amaryl thinks back.
06[21:45] * Demedais grimaces as he advances twenty feet forward, movement seeming to speed up slightly as his sword arcs into the air above him. "Let's hope this works..." he mutters very low under his breath, guessing his position as lead visible human will make him a target!
[21:45] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: So you're 80ft away from the golem, basically?
[21:46] <Demedais> OOC: Yeah. Helm have mercy and I know this is a bad idea, yes.
[21:49] <Ko-sortingloot> Demedais is in position! The Mithral Golem flies up a bit, over the elementals, as he zooms straight for Demedais, charging at him like a silver meteor, coming to within twenty feet of Demedais! OOC: It had to do some movement antics to get that close, so you're not getting your wish quite yet. Donald's up.
[21:49] <Alicia> OOC: Do I get an AoO?
[21:49] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: You can if you like, sure.
06[21:49] * Alicia slashes at the back of the golem as it flies beneath her!
[21:49] <Alicia> roll 1d20+13 knowledge
06[21:49] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+13 knowledge and gets 18." [1d20=5]
[21:50] <Alicia> roll 1d20+31 invis, flying
06[21:50] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+31 invis, flying and gets 50." [1d20=19]
[21:50] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Hit.
[21:50] <Alicia> roll 1d8+15+1d6+1d6
06[21:50] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d8+15+1d6+1d6 and gets 26." [1d8=6][1d6=4][1d6=1]
[21:52] <Ko-sortingloot> As the golem flies by, Alicia hacks into it's silvery body! It's supernaturally tough, only a light chipping at best from her quick strike as it soars past! Meanwhile, Donald steps to the side, firing off two volleys of flaming rays at the Earth Elemental, stayinga way from the Golem!
[21:52] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really
[21:52] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really
[21:52] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really
06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really and gets 11." [1d20=11]
06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really and gets 14." [1d20=14]
06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really and gets 7." [1d20=7]
[21:52] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really
[21:52] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really
[21:52] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really
06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really and gets 7." [1d20=7]
06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really and gets 20." [1d20=20]
06[21:52] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20 needs a 1 to miss these, really and gets 15." [1d20=15]
[21:53] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 24d6
06[21:53] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 24d6 and gets 90." [24d6=5, 5, 5, 1, 5, 4, 4, 1, 5, 5, 6, 5, 3, 5, 1, 1, 6, 3, 4, 4, 5, 3, 2, 2]
[21:54] <Ko-sortingloot> The dual volleys of hot rays pierce the elemental massively, leaving giant holes throughout it! The Earth Elemental lumbers forward, laying into one of Seira's Elementals!
[21:54] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+27
06[21:54] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+27 and gets 33." [1d20=6]
[21:54] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: AC?
01[21:54] <Seira> OOC: Haha 16
[21:54] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 2d10+11
06[21:54] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 2d10+11 and gets 23." [2d10=3, 9]
01[21:54] <Seira> OOC: 26 hp!
[21:54] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Did it di...okay.
[21:55] <Ko-sortingloot> The elemental is slammed hard, buckling but somehow holding together under a smashing straight into the ground! OOC: Alicia.
[21:56] <Alicia> "Distract the golem!" Alicia yells at her elementals, hurling her sword after it in a spinning path of bladed death, before she herself flies to take up position above and to the rear of the metallic titan!
[21:57] <Alicia> roll 1d20+32 divine might
06[21:57] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+32 divine might and gets 40." [1d20=8]
[21:57] <Ko-sortingloot> Tink! Her blade hits the back of the golem but bounces off, simply not strong enough to penetrate at all this time, coming back to Alicia as she flies into position! OOC: Elementals and then Seira.
[21:58] <Alicia> Alicia's elementals charge mindlessly past the earth elemental to the golem's ankles!
[21:58] <Alicia> OOC: they get AoO'd by both surely
[21:58] <Alicia> OOC: sorry, mine don't go yet
[21:58] <Alicia> OOC: so ignore that
[21:58] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: They're also not up, so yeah. Seira's elementals.
01[21:58] <Seira> "Vengeance on the earth golem!" Seira calls to her minions, who promptly obey!
01[21:59] <Seira> roll 1d20+6
01[21:59] <Seira> roll 1d20+6
06[21:59] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+6 and gets 19." [1d20=13]
06[21:59] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+6 and gets 19." [1d20=13]
[21:59] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: No hits.
01[21:59] <Seira> OOC: Alas
[21:59] <Ko-sortingloot> The elementals strike back in return, but can't do much against the mammoth block of stone and earth, slamming against it in vain! OOC: Seira.
06[22:01] * Seira launches another ray at the golem from the same spot! Let it think she has an infinite supply of them; for her part, she is gone as soon as the ray had left her hands, positioning herself within thirty feet of both the golem and Demedais each, off to the side.
01[22:01] <Seira> roll 1d20+18 invis, ranged touch, defensively
06[22:01] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+18 invis, ranged touch, defensively and gets 20." [1d20=2]
[22:01] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Hit.
01[22:01] <Seira> roll 1.5*15d6 lucky!
06[22:01] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1.5*15d6 lucky! and gets 102." [15d6=6, 3, 6, 6, 6, 2, 3, 6, 6, 2, 5, 3, 5, 6, 3]
[22:02] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira fires fast and hard! The golem de-evolves further, seeming to crumble before you! It's voice is defiant, "I don't care where you are! I'll crush all of you that I can see! You can't escape from the all seeing eyes of the God King!" OOC: Polly's up.
[22:02] <Ko-sortingloot> Pollyanna positions a little more away, continuing to assail the elemental in her sights!
[22:02] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+22
[22:02] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+22
06[22:02] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+22 and gets 25." [1d20=3]
06[22:02] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+22 and gets 35." [1d20=13]
[22:02] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+17
06[22:02] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+17 and gets 37." [1d20=20]
[22:02] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+12
06[22:02] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+12 and gets 31." [1d20=19]
[22:02] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 4d8+4d6+56
06[22:02] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 4d8+4d6+56 and gets 79." [4d8=1, 2, 1, 7][4d6=3, 2, 4, 3]
[22:03] <Ko-sortingloot> The elemental eats yet more hot, flaming death, rocks crumbling as it's brutalized, cracks appearing all over it's body! OOC: Deme and Amaryl and Alicia's elementals.
[22:03] <Ko-sortingloot> Amaryl changes targets to the elemental, firing hard and all out!
[22:03] <Ko-sortingloot> roll 1d20+12 (-8 PA)
06[22:03] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+12 (-8 PA) and gets 19." [1d20=7]

[22:04] <Ko-sortingloot> Another arrow slams into the chest of the elemental, nother line of cracks going all up and down it's body, but not making it shatter apart! OOC: Other two.
[22:04] <Alicia> Alicia's elementals charge mindlessly past the crumbling earth elemental to the golem's ankles!
[22:04] <Alicia> OOC: AoO it up?

06[22:05] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20 and gets 9." [1d20=9]
[22:05] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: I assume it has at least +2 ref with that HD count.
[22:05] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Yes.
[22:06] <Alicia> OOC: Golem AoO on one of the remaining two?
[22:06] <Ko-sortingloot> One of the elementals is crushed under fist, not even getting close! Meanwhile, the golem strikes the other!

06[22:06] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d20+40 and gets 41." [1d20=1]

[22:06] <Alicia> OOC: +4 AC for Deme vs Golem
[22:06] <Demedais> "Ah, Helm. May it be blind indeed to these magics..." Demedais murmurs, before bellowing, "Then deal with me first, golem!" With that, he bursts forward, trying to get under its reach to cut it apart!
[22:07] <Ko-sortingloot> The two get in place, helping distract the golem away from Demedais! OOC: Go for it, it lacks CR.
[22:08] <Demedais> roll 1d20+23 (+3 GMW +6 Law Dev +1 Haste -10 CE I will be the distraction of Helm! Buzz, golem! Buzz!)
06[22:08] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+23 (+3 GMW +6 Law Dev +1 Haste -10 CE I will be the distraction of Helm! Buzz, golem! Buzz!) and gets 36." [1d20=13]
[22:09] <Ko-sortingloot> Demedais comes in close, but his blade doesn't find a weakness as he fights defensively as he can, dodging strikes left an dright! OOC: Golem.
[22:09] <Ko-sortingloot> The golem roars up, slamming it's fist down over and over and over at Demedais, an unbearable storm of silver wrath!

06[22:10] * Hatbot --> "Ko-sortingloot rolls 1d7 and gets 5." [1d7=5]
[22:11] <Ko-sortingloot> Demedais parries for all he's worth, moving like a metal typhoon! He dodges blow after blow, huffing as his sword meets the greatest of the swings a mere foot from his body! The force of it sends cracks running down the ground Demedais holds under, as the Fifth Resort comes up to butt the fist away from the underside! OOC: Donald's up.
[22:12] <Demedais> OOC: Is he still within five feet?
[22:18] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Who is?
[22:18] <Demedais> OOC: The golem. Though it's mainly for reference for later.
[22:18] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Yeah, it's saying in close and maiming you, or trying.
[22:19] <Ko-sortingloot> Donald moves to the sides further, firing off more scorhcing rays!

[22:19] <Ko-sortingloot> U:nder the fiery assualt, the elemental crumbles to broken dust! OOC: Alicia.
[22:19] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: She did not. She fired a single shot and hit the elemental.
[22:21] <Alicia> Now readily in position, Alicia slashes down with a vicious flurry of strikes, raking across the golem's oversized shoulders and neck, before she jinks five feet back and to the left, hopefully avoiding any reprisal!

01[22:25] <Seira> "Charge the golem in a cone hat!" Seira commands, and the fiery ones follow her orders, the intact elemental leading the way to absorb the hit for the wounded one, hopefully! Once there, they can assist Demedais!
[22:26] <Ko-sortingloot> This time, the golem makes no move to intercept them! OOC: It's saving the aoO. They can proceed.

[22:26] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Right. You're up.
01[22:27] <Seira> For her part, Seira considers her options before drawing the trio of elven darts, imbuing them with the magic of a fiery cone, and sending them flying at the golem! She'll wait for them to return to her, before moving ten feet to the side, still remaining within range of Demedais's protective aura.

[22:34] <Ko-sortingloot> OOC: Oh you did, my fault. I thought you stayed put. You're off the ook.
[22:35] <Ko-sortingloot> The golem swings in utter futility, unable to land any strikes! Donald positions a bit more, as...OOC: Ailcia.
06[22:36] * Alicia floats down and in a bit to gain access to the golem's spine and rips her blades into it once more, shredding mithral like it was paper!

01[22:38] <Seira> *there
[22:38] <Ko-sortingloot> "Whoo!" Donald cries, "Got the son of a devil!"
06[22:38] * Alicia lands on the ground, exhaling tiredly and manifesting visibly. "Things went a lot better this time, I'll say that."
01[22:39] <Seira> "Yep!"
[22:39] <Ko-sortingloot> Pollyanna lowers her bow, going to kick a bit of mithral. "Preparation and a good plan were key. Demedais, you were magnificent. So were you, Alicia...and Seira...I think, since I couldn't see you."
[22:39] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira approaches the altar! There is a deep groove in the middle. Here lies a jeweled bow, glowing with a very faint light. It is of superb, beautiful craftsmanship.
[22:40] <Demedais> "..." Demedais kneels after that. "Took all my skill to manage that, though. Was pushing my parrying to my limit, but after I saw it swing to nail a fire elemental, I guessed it'd work..."
06[22:40] * Alicia opens up the portable hole on the ground and starts shovelling all the mithral into it.
01[22:40] <Seira> roll 1d20+37 ignorance, search, are you trapped?

[22:42] <Ko-sortingloot> Seira takes the First Resort in her hand! She holds the legendary bow!
06[22:43] * Demedais looks up at Seira, a slight grin on his face. "Excellent. Then... all that's left is the damn cat? Anything else?"
06[22:43] * Seira finally becomes visible, her images winking out. "At last, the five Resorts are in mortal hands?" she says, grinning.
[22:44] <Alicia> "There's still several captives left here to deal with," Alicia points out as she shovels the last huge chunk of mithral into her extradimensional space, folding it up once done.
[22:44] <Ko-sortingloot> "Still," Amaryl smiles brightly, "We really did it!"
[22:44] <Ko-sortingloot> "We did," Donald goes to stretch, "Kicked ass, took names and that's the fifth one? Excellent.
[22:44] <Ko-sortingloot> "
01[22:44] <Seira> "Wasn't it the first?"
[22:45] <Ko-sortingloot> "The fifth one gotten, like yo usaid," Donald shrugs.
01[22:45] <Seira> "Ah! I wonder what it does?"
[22:48] <Alicia> "Lets go down to the museum if there's nothing else to deal with here?" Alicia suggests. "We can identify the bow back in Balmuria."
[22:49] <Ko-sortingloot> The party returns to the front of the museum. There is no wild magic to deal with here now, just the empty ruins of the past...
01[22:49] <Seira> "Send back that succubus and all that?" Seira asks. "I can practice my Dismissal!"
[22:50] <Alicia> "Assuming he doesn't do something foolish and require us to send it back the more painful way, yes," Alicia agrees, starting to head for the stairway.
[22:50] <Ko-sortingloot> The party returns! They find the succubus waiting, staring out the glass at them.
[22:50] <Alicia> Is this area still antimagic?
01[22:50] <Seira> "Time for you to go home," Seira announces. "Any last words?"
[22:50] <Ko-sortingloot> It doesn't seem to be, no.
[22:50] <Ko-sortingloot> "I just want to get out of here," The succubus presses his chest against the glass, "As soon as possible."
01[22:51] <Seira> "Right. Don't resist, then, and it'll be painless for all involved!"
[22:51] <Alicia> "We'll let you out of your cell and then banish you," Alicia explains, trying the door next to the cell. "Please don't do anything foolish."
01[22:51] <Seira> Since gnomes apparently used teleportation on the subjects while within the cells, Seira wonders if she can affect it without getting the cell opened.
[22:51] <Ko-sortingloot> "I won't." He stands aside with a little smirk, "I'm not suicidal."
[22:51] <Ko-sortingloot> The door looks to be locked.
01[22:52] <Seira> "So what's your name?" Seira asks, glancing at the lock next to Alicia. "If you've told me, I totally forgot."
[22:52] <Alicia> "Want to pick it, Seira? If not I'll just smash the glass," Alicia offers.
[22:52] <Ko-sortingloot> "Call me..." He considers a moment, "Python."
[22:53] <Demedais> "Python?" Demedais blinks. "O...kay?"
01[22:54] <Seira> roll 1d20+19 open lock
06[22:54] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+19 open lock and gets 34." [1d20=15]
[22:55] <Ko-sortingloot> Click! With a bit of work, Seira undoes the lock.
06[22:55] * Seira tries Dismissal!
[22:55] <Alicia> "At least it's more pronouncable than a lot of demon names," Alicia shrugs. "On that note, if you run into anyone called G'renna back in Shendilvari, tell her that Alicia says hello," she tells the fiend.
[22:56] <Ko-sortingloot> The creature does not resist! As it vanishes, "G'Renna?!" It sputters, "You know Lady-" The nothing at all, the dismissal removing the creature from view.
[22:56] <Demedais> "Well, that was interesting." Demedais remarks blandly.
01[22:57] <Seira> "It's all one big happy family down there, sounds like."
[22:57] <Ko-sortingloot> "It's just an infinity of souls uckers," Donald says with a hint of dourness, "Now what?"
06[22:57] * Alicia looks somewhat piqued at the dangling hint that was abruptly pulled away from her. "She... helped me out, that's all," she mutters in response to the commentary.
[22:57] <Ko-sortingloot> "Really? You know a demon that well? A lady, from the sounds of it?" Donald puts a hand on his hip, "There's girl demons...succubi and lilitu, I guess?"
[22:58] <Alicia> "Anyway, there's still a bar-lgura and Broodswarm?" Alicia suggests briskly, going over to knock on the window of the ape-demon's cell.
[22:58] <Ko-sortingloot> "Alicia gets along well with fiends." Pollyanna's smile twists onto her face, following along. "Antenora looked like a succubus, anyway."
[22:58] <Ko-sortingloot> The knocking doesn't seem to produce any immediate effect.
06[22:59] * Seira keeps back, but ready to use magic to send any fiends back in a more direct fashion.
[22:59] <Alicia> "Try the door, Seira?" Alicia suggests, deciding it best to just ignore Pollyanna.
[23:02] <Demedais> "If Alicia found a demon that was actually willing to help her at one point, I'd be worried less about anything Alicia does and wondering more if the demon is going to either get blasted to pieces for insubordination or come up here for conversion." Demedais shrugs.
01[23:02] <Seira> roll 1d20+19
06[23:02] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+19 and gets 35." [1d20=16]
[23:04] <Ko-sortingloot> Click! Again Seira undoes the lock1
06[23:05] * Alicia opens the door and looks inside for any evil auras.

[19:31] <Kotono> <Demedais> "Well, that was interesting." Demedais remarks blandly.
[19:31] <Kotono> <Seira> "It's all one big happy family down there, sounds like."
[19:31] <Kotono> > "It's just an infinity of souls uckers," Donald says with a hint of dourness, "Now what?"

[19:31] <Kotono> > Click! Again Seira undoes the lock1
[19:31] <Kotono> * Alicia opens the door and looks inside for any evil auras.
[19:32] <Alicia> "Odd... doesn't look like there's anything even in here," Alicia frowns, stepping inside and looking around.
[19:33] <Kotono> Donald follows, sword at the ready. "Maybe this one was removed out before all this happened?"
[19:33] <Kotono> OOC: Spot, Alicia?
[19:33] <Alicia> roll 1d20+10
06[19:33] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+10 and gets 25." [1d20=15]
06[19:34] * Demedais advances forward a bit as well, sword out as he waits behind Alicia and Donald. "If there's nothing, there's nothing. Let's close the door and move on?"
[19:34] <Alicia> "It must have escaped without the succubus noticing?" Alicia muses as she comes out. "Well, that leaves the broodswarm..."
[19:35] <Demedais> "Possible." Demedais frowns. "The broodswarm, and the one behind the black window."
[19:36] <Kotono> The cell's about 20 feet wide and 40 deep. Space but not too much space.
06[19:37] * Alicia waits for Seira to unlock the broodswarm cell.
06[19:37] * Seira shrugs, closing the door to this one and not bothering to lock it, before moving on.
01[19:37] <Seira> roll 1d20+19
06[19:37] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+19 and gets 21." [1d20=2]
[19:37] <Kotono> No dice. Seira doesn't open it on her first try.
06[19:37] * Seira tries again.
01[19:38] <Seira> roll 1d20+19
06[19:38] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+19 and gets 26." [1d20=7]
[19:38] <Kotono> Click! This time Seira succeeds, the door unlocked!
06[19:38] * Seira gestures at it with flourish.
06[19:38] * Alicia opens the door and steps inside!
[19:38] <Alicia> (detect evil)
[19:39] <Kotono> Alicia opens the door! As she steps in, sh esees it! It's 40 feet away at the end! It's a vast cloud of tiny...demons? Little winged things, horrible! They make no secret of hiding as they begin to rush towards the door, a rush of leering demonic faces times a thousand! OOC: Init? This one isn't particularly hiding or anything.
01[19:39] <Seira> roll 1d20+8
06[19:39] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+8 and gets 28." [1d20=20]

[19:40] <Kotono> OOC: Seira.
01[19:40] <Seira> The situation clearly calls for a boosted fireball!

06[19:41] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+23 and gets 27." [1d20=4]
[19:43] <Kotono> The swarm breaks apart, evading the fireball, parting away from it like a curtain! Not a single one is touched by it, the creatures showing devastating agility! They surge forward, enveloping Alicia! They claw and bite at her, while a strange silver thread gushes from the mouths, hands and eyes of the tiny terrors! OOC: rolling swarm damage first.
[19:43] <Kotono> roll 2d6 DR applies, despite teh color of the threads.
06[19:43] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d6 DR applies, despite teh color of the threads. and gets 7." [2d6=1, 6]
[19:44] <Kotono> Alicia's limbs and wings are lightly bound, tied up with the silver string! It holds her back, limiting her actions! At th esame time, a strangely dazed feeling passes over everyone! OOC: -2 dex Alicia since you're tied up, and everyone needs to make a will save.
[19:44] <Alicia> roll 1d20+27

06[19:45] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+20 Amaryl and gets 37." [1d20=17]
[19:46] <Kotono> The swarm leaves half the party utterly dazed, unable to think coherently or act!
[19:46] <Kotono> OOC: Deme, Donald and Polly are dazed. Polly gets to go since she's on the same tick and will be dazed next round.
03[19:46] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(28)>Swarm=Polly(dazed 1 round)(23)Demedais(21)(dazed 1 round)>Alicia(17)>Amaryl(11)>Donald(10)(dazed 1 round)'
[19:47] <Kotono> As her eyes glaze over, Pollyanna is able to fire off a few flaming arrows nonetheles!

[19:47] <Kotono> roll 1d20+22
06[19:47] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+22 and gets 41." [1d20=19]

06[19:48] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 3d6 sonic and gets 5." [3d6=1, 3, 1]
[19:48] <Kotono> The flaming arrows tear paths through the demons, leaving a few burnt out shells, as others explode around the arrows from vibrations! OOC: Deme, dazed. Alicia.
03[19:48] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(28)>Swarm=Polly(dazed 1 round)(23)Demedais(21))>Alicia(17)>Amaryl(11)>Donald(10)(dazed 1 round)'
[19:50] <Alicia> "Gahh!" Alicia flails at the beasts innefectually for a second before she calms herself and focuses, a burst of pure holy power filling the cell all around her!
[19:51] <Alicia> OOC: holy smite, DC 22 will
[19:51] <Alicia> roll 10d6
06[19:51] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 10d6 and gets 36." [10d6=5, 3, 1, 3, 6, 5, 4, 6, 2, 1]
[19:51] <Kotono> roll 1d20+16 will
06[19:51] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+16 will and gets 23." [1d20=7]
[19:51] <Alicia> She also retreats back out of the cell!
[19:51] <Kotono> The holy energies slam into the swarm! A few more of the pests are blasted away into little motes of black light, fading, but many more remain! Alicia then retreats away, silver strings hobbling her and all! OOC: Amaryl.
01[19:52] <Seira> 'Try a summons?' Seira quickly thinks.
[19:54] <Kotono> Amaryl holds up Seira's pendant, magic coming from within! A small fire elemental appears behind the swarm, slamming at it!
[19:54] <Kotono> roll 1d20+3
06[19:54] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+3 and gets 23." [1d20=20]

[19:55] <Kotono> The elemental sends another small demon into flaming ruin as it hacks and slams at them! Donald is dazed! OOC: SEira.
03[19:55] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(28)>Swarm=Polly(dazed 1 round)(23)Demedais(21))>Alicia(17)>Fire Elemental(shadow)=Amaryl(11)>Donald(10)'
06[19:56] * Seira steps into the breach, taking Alicia's place as the Resort strikes at the tiny demons, while batting away at more still with a fiery claw!
01[19:57] <Seira> roll 1d20+23
06[19:57] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+23 and gets 27." [1d20=4]

01[19:58] <Seira> OOC: That's breath
[19:58] <Kotono> OOC: Okay.
[19:59] <Kotono> Sonic vibrations splatter a few more of the demonic horde! As Pollyanna is dazed, the swarm erupts around Seira and Pollyanna! The buzz constantly, stabbing and tying! OOC: swar damage to you two first.
[19:59] <Kotono> roll 2d6
06[19:59] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d6 and gets 6." [2d6=4, 2]
01[19:59] <Seira> OOC: DR 10
[19:59] <Kotono> OOC: No further effect on this part since your DR ate it.
[20:00] <Kotono> Pollyanna is bitten, clawed and tied up, silvery threads binding her body! The dazed feeling continues to radiate about! OOC: -2 dex Polly. Will saves everyone but Polly, who's already dazed.
[20:01] <Kotono> roll 1d20+8 Donald
06[20:01] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+8 Donald and gets 21." [1d20=13]

[20:01] <Kotono> As Pollyanna is dazed, Donald staggers over again as well! OOC: Deme.
06[20:05] * Demedais shakes his head, before eyeing the swarm warily. "I don't think I'd manage to do anything effective swinging through that..." With a murmur, he steps back and away from the swarm, before bringing up a circle to ward off evil! "If we stay in this, however, perhaps..." OOC: MCagainst E, I'm about 11 feet away
[20:06] <Kotono> Demedais calls on protective power as he backs up, a circle of magical protection springing to vivid life on the floor below! OOC: Alicia.
[20:10] <Alicia> "Detestable little things," Alicia grimaces, stepping close and cleaving through several of the tiny demons with several sweeps of her blades!
[20:10] <Alicia> roll 1d20+24 knowledge
06[20:10] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+24 knowledge and gets 28." [1d20=4]

[20:11] <Kotono> OOC: Four hits. Roll elemental damages only.
[20:11] <Alicia> OOC: not holy?
[20:11] <Kotono> OOC: Okay, holy too.
[20:11] <Alicia> roll 8d6+4d6+4d6
06[20:11] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 8d6+4d6+4d6 and gets 48." [8d6=5, 4, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 6][4d6=5, 1, 1, 2][4d6=6, 4, 5, 2]
03[20:11] * Kotono changes topic to 'Seira(28)>Swarm=Polly(23)Demedais(21))>Alicia(17)>Fire Elemental(shadow)=Amaryl(11)>Donald(10)(dazed 1 round)'
[20:11] <Kotono> The swarm, under assault by a direct holy and flaming barrage, disperses! It crumbles apart, slain and blown to the four winds! OOC: Free act.
[20:12] <Demedais> "Phew." Demedais mutters, shaking his head after a moment.
06[20:12] * Alicia glowers and marches around, stabbing the little demons now that they're dispersed and disorganised!
[20:13] <Kotono> What survivors remain are easy enough to pick off, nearly helpless. Pollyanna gets up, tugging at the strings binding her...
[20:13] <Kotono> roll 1d20+3
06[20:13] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+3 and gets 13." [1d20=10]
[20:13] <Kotono> "Damn it," she says, "Someone help me? I can't get these strings off."
06[20:14] * Demedais nods silently. "Someone also asist Alicia with hers?" With that, he moves to help Pollyanna.
06[20:14] * Seira runs a fiery claw through the threads at the request!
[20:14] <Alicia> "Hold on," Alicia suggests, casting a warding against fire on both herself and Pollyanna. "Seira, want to try burning us?"
01[20:14] <Seira> "Hey, I've got finesse!" Seira protests.
[20:14] <Demedais> "Alternately, that works, Seira." Demedais grins slightly.
[20:14] <Kotono> Between Demedais pulling and Seira clawing, it's simple enough to dissolve the silver strings. Pollyanna is freed.
06[20:15] * Seira eyes Alicia. "Now, you were talking about wanting to be set on fire?"
[20:15] <Alicia> "There's a lot of thread, just breathe fire on me and it'll be fine?" Alicia suggests.
06[20:15] * Seira does so!
01[20:15] <Seira> roll 6d8 flames~
06[20:15] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 6d8 flames~ and gets 36." [6d8=8, 8, 8, 5, 6, 1]
[20:15] <Kotono> Ouch! Seira's flames do dissolve the strings, though it's so much that it burns Alicia a bit.
01[20:16] <Seira> OOC: She can totally make the save in her sleep
[20:16] <Alicia> It's nothing she can't heal up, anyway. And she does so.
[20:16] <Alicia> "Thanks," she smiles gamely at Seira.
[20:16] <Kotono> OOC: She could, but I assume she's just taking it so the strings can burn.
[20:16] <Kotono> "So, just one last thing here? That black window," Donald starts to walk away, "It's supposed to be some freakish half breed?"
01[20:16] <Seira> "Who am I to stand in the way of a girl's love of fire?"
[20:17] <Demedais> "Yeah." Demedais says. "I think... Alicia, if you wear your blindfold and I have my circle up, we should be able to handle it?"
[20:17] <Alicia> "It's bred of demon and devil, but it's never known the Lower Planes," Alicia muses. "We can't make judgements about how it'll behave. Regardless, protection against enchantment is probably wise." She duly casts protection from evil on herself.
01[20:18] <Seira> "Demedais's spell should protect us all, though," Seira muses. "Unless he wanders off."
[20:18] <Demedais> "My circle should last a long while, and I don't intend to wander off, no." Demedais grins.
[20:18] <Kotono> Thus, the party returns to the black window without incident. Demedais is still there, magic circle and all.
06[20:19] * Seira places her hand against the windows, thinking about making it see through.
06[20:19] * Alicia presses a hand on the window, starting to glow herself to try and obviate the darkness. "Hello? Can you hear me in there?" she asks.
[20:20] <Kotono> Seira presses her hand on the window as the party watches! The window turns clear. Inside is...OOC: Make will saves, all of you? Seira, Demedais and Amaryl save at -6. Bonuses from Magic Circle apply if you don't have a resistance bonus in place already.
[20:20] <Alicia> roll 1d20+29
06[20:20] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+29 and gets 30." [1d20=1]
[20:21] <Kotono> OOC: Donald as well, dur. For the -6.
[20:21] <Kotono> roll 1d20+4
06[20:21] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+4 and gets 5." [1d20=1]
01[20:21] <Seira> roll 1d20+18
06[20:21] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+18 and gets 19." [1d20=1]
[20:21] <Kotono> roll 1d20+11 Polly
06[20:21] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+11 Polly and gets 20." [1d20=9]
[20:21] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7 Amaryl
06[20:21] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 Amaryl and gets 17." [1d20=10]
[20:22] <Demedais> roll 1d20+17 (+5 mind-affecting?!)
06[20:22] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+17 (+5 mind-affecting?!) and gets 19." [1d20=2]
[20:22] <Kotono> OOC: It is, but with that roll of a 2...
[20:24] <Kotono> You cannot view the creature. It is too gorgeous to perceive. Your eyes tear away from it, lest they melt away. It's voice is like honey crafted into sweet, intoxicating words. Every word it speaks compels you, filling your blood with ardor. "Hello...oh, someone at last!" The glorious figure moves towards the window. A single perfect hand can be seen, snow white and without blemish.
01[20:24] <Seira> "Hi!" Seira greets in her friendliest voice. "All the gnomes are dead and we're now here to save you!"
[20:25] <Demedais> "...right." Demedais murmurs, head racing.
[20:25] <Alicia> "We've come to get you out of here," Alicia agrees. "If you stand back, we'll smash the window and you'll be free."
[20:25] <Kotono> "Oh...thank you..." Such warm gratitude, Donald staring near her, absorbed. Amaryl doesn't do much either, slack jawed. "To be free after all this time!"
[20:26] <Kotono> She steps away, the glorious vision of perfection moving away from the window.
06[20:26] * Seira draws her sword, and glances at Alicia. "On three?"
06[20:27] * Alicia waits a moment to be sure the captive hybrid is well away from any risk of being hit with shrapnel, "On three," she agrees, counting down before she proceeds to lay into the window with Hell Striker!
[20:27] <Kotono> OOC: Roll damage, both of you?
06[20:27] * Seira strikes the protective glass in tandem with Alicia!
01[20:27] <Seira> roll 3d8+11+1d6
06[20:27] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d8+11+1d6 and gets 29." [3d8=8, 4, 5][1d6=1]
[20:28] <Alicia> roll 1d8+47+1d6+1d6 divine might and full pa
06[20:28] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d8+47+1d6+1d6 divine might and full pa and gets 58." [1d8=1][1d6=5][1d6=5]
[20:29] <Kotono> The window shatters! The beautiful creature is 30 feet away, at the far corner of the room. There she...sits, you think, too much to look at. She smells of something impossible, something that makes the blood boil and your mouth go dry. She kneels there, "Thank you...would one of you...please come here and help me?"
06[20:29] * Seira doesn't hesitate before doing so!
[20:29] <Demedais> "Hold. We will all advance." Demedais says quietly.
06[20:30] * Demedais grabs Seira's shoulder before she can leave the circle!
01[20:30] <Seira> "What are you doing?" she snaps at him.
[20:30] <Kotono> Donald starts to walk forward as well, "I'll help you," he grins, "I'll help you as much as you need! Demedais, she's in trouble! What sort of man are you?"
06[20:30] * Alicia doesn't bother listening to Demedais. Not when someone needs her help! Ignoring the others, she rushes over to the poor prisoner in desperate need of love and reassurance. "It's alright, you'll be safe now," she reassures.
[20:31] <Kotono> "I...Demedais..." Pollyanna lingers just behind him, "We are a team..."
[20:31] <Kotono> OOC: Sec. Hold.
[20:35] <Kotono> OOC: Okay, carry on.
06[20:36] * Demedais sighs and just motions the group to advance at this, nodding to Pollyanna. "Right. I was asking to make sure- ah, forget it." With that Demedais advances with Pollyanna, walking toward the being and letting her into the circle even as he keeps up with his charmed friends!
01[20:37] <Seira> "So, umm, do you have anywhere to go?" Seira asks the pretty fiend.
[20:39] <Kotono> OOC: Each of you make charisma checks?
[20:39] <Alicia> "Do you have a name?" Alicia asks kindly, wanting to give the creature the benefit of the doubt. Having never known either the Abyss or Hell, she might not be ruled by her blood... if they're lucky. "Mine's Alicia."
[20:39] <Alicia> roll 1d20+8
06[20:39] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+8 and gets 13." [1d20=5]
[20:39] <Kotono> roll 1d20 Donald
06[20:39] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20 Donald and gets 14." [1d20=14]
[20:39] <Kotono> roll 1d20+1 polly
06[20:39] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+1 polly and gets 8." [1d20=7]
01[20:39] <Seira> roll 1d20+7
06[20:39] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+7 and gets 17." [1d20=10]
06[20:39] * Demedais inhales slightly, obvious interest even as he lets the others talk, staying near Pollyanna.
[20:40] <Demedais> roll 1d20+7
[20:40] <Kotono> roll 1d20+3 Amaryl
06[20:40] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+7 and gets 10." [1d20=3]
06[20:40] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+3 Amaryl and gets 19." [1d20=16]
[20:40] <Kotono> The creature drifts towards Amaryl, draping a hand to Amaryl's cheek. "I don't. But please..." she looks to Amaryl, "You have the look of nobility around you. Can I ask for refuge and freedom under your guise?"
[20:41] <Kotono> Amaryl tries to speak once and then twice, bu tnothing comes out. Her cheeks blaze red.
06[20:41] * Seira subtly draws closer to Amaryl at that.
[20:41] <Alicia> Belatedly, Alicia remembers to check for anyone being enchanted, her eyes tinting blue. The fiend is acting awfully forward and knowledgable, for her tastes...
[20:41] <Kotono> "I-I-I..." Amaryl looks down, frozen solid. "Y-You...of c-course you could, if it's okay with everyone else. They know outsiders b-better."
01[20:42] <Seira> "It won't be the first time someone stayed with us," Seira agrees. "And it doesn't matter if you're an outsider or where you come from, only who you are."
[20:42] <Alicia> "We will protect you," Alicia begins, "But we can do so better if our minds aren't clouded with enchantment. Can you control your abilities?" she asks, still straining not to jump to the bad conclusion.
[20:44] <Kotono> "What...what do yo umean?" The beautiful figure beseeches Alicia. Her voice is so wonderful, so enthralling. It's hard to do anything but listen.
06[20:44] * Demedais inhales, looking, for the most part, completely unsurprised at the mention of enchantment, but still somewhat rapt.
[20:45] <Alicia> "You have the ability to make others fall in love with you just by looking," Alicia explains patiently. "I'm not accusing you - you've been abandoned here for so long and never had a chance to fully learn what you are, no doubt. But it makes things difficult for us."
01[20:45] <Seira> "We're not like the gnomes!" Seira pitches in. "It wouldn't matter to us how you look, not one bit!"
[20:47] <Kotono> The creature goes away from Amaryl, as Amaryl stares at her, eyes following the lovely being. She goes over to Alicia, taking her hand with her own. "Trust me a little, please. I only desire my freedom." Every word she speaks tempts, a sweet entreaty to do as she asks.
06[20:47] * Demedais blinks at this, beginning to get wary as he eyes the woman... OOC: Sense Motive?
[20:48] <Kotono> OOC: If you like.
[20:48] <Demedais> roll 1d20+22
06[20:48] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+22 and gets 24." [1d20=2]
[20:49] <Alicia> "I know," Alicia smiles reassuringly. "In spite of what you are, you've never known your heritage. That makes it easier to trust you, but it also means you perhaps don't understand your own capabilities. Try to focus, on the power that dwells inside you - power to beguile and enchant."
[20:49] <Alicia> "Can you feel it? Surely it must be boiling up inside, now that you've met so many new faces, eager to test its limits?" she encourages, stepping close.
[20:51] <Kotono> "Oh..." She pauses a moment, starting to wander away. She wanders towards the window, seemingly lost in thought, putting a hand on the broken glass there, hand uncut by the sharpness.
06[20:52] * Seira grows visibly angry, and the Resort trembles in her hand.
[20:53] <Demedais> "...Seira?" Demedais glances to her, brow furrowed. "What is wrong?"
[20:53] <Alicia> "Surely you can feel it?" Alicia follows. "The power of your birthright - even if you've never consciously mastered it, it's there. It suffuses your entire being, and even now leaks out, trying to mold us all to your will. It is something that you must learn to master and control, for your sake and ours."
[20:54] <Kotono> She sees Seira, looking away, "..." No words, but heart rending sadness can be felt, somehow. "You reject me?" she asks, "Then...at least allow me to be free!" With that, the lovely creature flies up and starts to travel out the window and down the hall. OOC: If any of you are going to react, goa head by all means.
[20:55] <Alicia> "Wait, the traps will tear you apart!" Alicia calls, flapping her own wings to hurry after her!
06[20:55] * Seira clutches Amaryl's hand with her free one, remaining in the cell.
[20:56] <Kotono> "W-Wait!" Donald runs along, hurrying! "Don't go!" Pollyanna stays by Demedais for the moment.
06[20:56] * Demedais glances to Seira, before grimacing. "Alicia said there were enchantments on us... Let's stick together. I'd rather not leave Alicia to get fluste- ...Seira, you're staying here?" he says on seeing those two holding hands. "Blast..." First, Demedais takes Polly's hand and steps fifteen feet away, watching Seira and Amaryl closely.
[20:57] <Kotono> OOC: Alicia and Donald stay in here. Other four in #evil? We'll do this in two rooms for easier managing. And by #evil, I mean #terror.

---

[20:57] <Kotono> ----
[20:58] <Kotono> Demedais steps away! As he does...OOC: PM, Seira.
[20:59] <Kotono> Amaryl shivers, "No...no! Wait!" She reaches forward, "Don't go! Please! Don't leave me!"
06[20:59] * Demedais immediately steps back in at the change in Amaryl's expression, keeping Pollyanna with him. "Damnit. Was hoping Seira's anger'd let you shake the damn thing, since it seems the circle's only suppressing it."
06[21:01] * Seira sinks to her knees heavily, a chance at perfection lost. Rejection? She's the one being rejected.
[21:02] <Kotono> Amaryl blinks, "Oh..." she says, "She's so beautiful...I lost myself in that."
01[21:02] <Seira> "She was doing something she shouldn't be," Seira declares through gritted teeth. "Beautiful or not, jailed unjustly or not, there can only be so many misunderstandings!"
[21:03] <Demedais> "Then should we catch up to those two and explicate that, Seira?" Demedais says, voice resorting to steely calm.
01[21:04] <Seira> "Yes, let's," she says, struggling back to her feet. "And we'll have words, after. Oh, we will...."
[21:04] <Kotono> "No...Demedais is right. We need to do that and be calm about this. Before we lose ourselves again." Amaryl nods, "Okay?"
[21:05] <Demedais> "Alright. Everyone, keep pace with me." Demedais nods, leading the four out and ignoring Seira's second comment.
[21:05] <Kotono> OOC: I'll move you three into #dunes in a second, er four of you.

---

[21:00] <Kotono> Alicia and Donald hurry along! As they do, Donald cries in desperation! "Wait! Wait, dammit!" Alicia sees that she's stopped 30 feet down the hall, staring down at her feet. So gorgeous, so alluring.
06[21:01] * Alicia lands on her feet five feet behind the hybrid, "Why did you run off like that?" she asks delicately. How they handle this will probably have a strong impact on just what path she chooses to take through life.
[21:02] <Kotono> The creature turns to Alicia, as Donald flanks her from behind. "Oh..." she shudders, going to embrace Alicia! "I'm...I'm scared!" OOC: What spells do you have on you, Alicia?
[21:02] <Alicia> OOC: Mirror Image (so she needs to pick one to embrace), Resist Energy, Heroism, Protection from Evil
[21:03] <Kotono> roll 1d9
06[21:03] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d9 and gets 7." [1d9=7]
[21:03] <Kotono> OOC: She goes for an image, but it doesn't destroy it or anything.
[21:03] <Kotono> OOC: You can make a spellcraft check if you're paying attention, Alicia.
[21:03] <Alicia> roll 1d20+10 I am
06[21:03] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+10 I am and gets 25." [1d20=15]
[21:06] <Alicia> "Stop," Alicia's voice is final and so very sad as the illusion is phased through. "Look at what you're doing. We came to offer our hands in honest friendship, and all you can do is try to trick and beguile us. How long have you been trapped here, alone and neglected?"
[21:06] <Alicia> "And you can only lash out with your powers at those who would be your friends. Nothing but ill can come from continuing down this road."
[21:07] <Kotono> The spell is stopped at the last moment, as the others hurry along! OOC: Seira and company are thirty feet away and coming out. I'm going to call init here for organization.
[21:07] <Alicia> roll 1d20+8
06[21:07] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+8 and gets 27." [1d20=19]
[21:07] <Demedais> roll 1d20+2
06[21:07] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+2 and gets 13." [1d20=11]
[21:08] <Kotono> roll 1d20+2 Donald
01[21:08] <Seira> roll 1d20+8 I hate you
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+2 Donald and gets 7." [1d20=5]
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+8 I hate you and gets 16." [1d20=8]
[21:08] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7 Amaryl
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 Amaryl and gets 16." [1d20=9]
[21:08] <Kotono> roll 1d20+7 Polly
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+7 Polly and gets 26." [1d20=19]
[21:08] <Kotono> roll 1d20+10 pretty
06[21:08] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+10 pretty and gets 24." [1d20=14]
03[21:08] * Kotono changes topic to 'Alicia(27)>Polly(26)>Pretty Creature(24)>Amaryl=Seira(16)>Deme(13)>Donald(7)'
[21:09] <Kotono> OOC: Goa head and go, Alicia, regardless of it's nayhting or just holding.
06[21:09] * Alicia prepares to act more strongly by casting antimagic field if she even twitches her cute little nose in a spellcasting manner.
[21:11] <Kotono> Polly follows along, waiting on Demedais! The creature looks up at Alicia, magic coming! OOC: You can go reactive here, Alicia.
03[21:11] * Kotono changes topic to '>Polly(26)>Alicia=Pretty Creature(24)>Amaryl=Seira(16)>Deme(13)>Donald(7)'
[21:12] <Alicia> "Magic be undone!" Alicia snaps with a sweep of her hand, quicker than the creature's reflexes allow! For an instant it's as if the colour bleeds out of everything within ten feet of the angelic paladin, but it could almost seem like a trick of the light. What's more apparent however is that Alicia stops glowing and her duplicates vanish, while the hybrid is forced into its true form.
[21:14] <Kotono> What stands before you is beautiful. There is no doubt about it. It is unclad and with black wings. A pair of tentacles wrap around her bosom from her back. Her hair is fire red and midnight black, mixed together without pattern. She is without flaw...yet her face is empty. Empty allure. There is nothing human about it. Her face is desperately revolting, perfect in design and yet so wrong. So inhuman. So monsterous.
[21:16] <Kotono> With a snarling face, "Stop!" she commands! Her voice is no long flawless, but discordant. Disagreeable. Unpleasant. Amaryl meanwhile stares and gapes now, color draining from her cheeks! OOC: Seira?
01[21:18] <Seira> "Let's set one thing straight," Seira says through gritted teeth. "This isn't about you looking wrong or inhuman. This is about you trying to seduce my girlfriend right beside me!" Her voice raises to a yell near the end. "How dare you?!"
[21:19] <Kotono> OOC: Deme then.
06[21:25] * Demedais motions the group ahead at this, stopping just outside the antimagic field. "Alright, everyone."
[21:25] <Kotono> OOC: Anyone's that's holding can go. Seira?
03[21:25] * Kotono changes topic to '>Polly(26)>Alicia=Pretty Creature(24)>Amary(16)>Deme=Seira(13)>Donald(7)'
06[21:28] * Seira proceeds past Demedais, not inclined to let this pass. Her magics leave her as she steps into Alicia's field of antimagic, but her weapon is an artifact, and as such she strikes the fiend with a powerful smite!
01[21:28] <Seira> roll 1d20+19
06[21:28] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+19 and gets 33." [1d20=14]
[21:28] <Kotono> OOC: Hit.
01[21:29] <Seira> roll 3d8+9+6d8
06[21:29] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d8+9+6d8 and gets 47." [3d8=2, 1, 5][6d8=4, 7, 5, 8, 1, 5]
[21:29] <Kotono> Seira rushes forward, stabbing the Third Resort into the woman's chest! It's a deep, penetrating wound! The archers stand nearby, watching in rapt shock! Donald goes for his sword but fumbles it, staring! OOC: Donald' sholding, still shaken up a bit. So's Polly for the moment. Amaryl will go, though.
03[21:30] * Kotono changes topic to '>Polly(26)>Alicia=Pretty Creature(24)>Deme=Seira(13)>Donald(7)>Amaryl'
[21:31] <Kotono> Amaryl draws her Sun Blade, just behind Seira! "No! You...you mad eme feel like that!" OOC: Amaryl wants blood but it takes a round. Polly's holding, so...Alicia and the creature are up.
06[21:32] * Alicia looks at the unholy crossbreed with undisguised pity, seeing only a neglected child who never learned to know any better. "This isn't what I wanted from this. Why couldn't you have listened?" she asks sadly.
[21:32] <Alicia> OOC: holding
[21:33] <Kotono> The creature howls with pain and anger, "Why won't you...all this time and some..." she lays into Seira with her hands!
[21:33] <Kotono> roll 1d20+27
[21:33] <Kotono> roll 1d20+27
06[21:33] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+27 and gets 35." [1d20=8]
06[21:33] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+27 and gets 32." [1d20=5]
[21:33] <Kotono> OOC: AC, Seira?
01[21:34] <Seira> OOC: It hit me without magic to my ac
[21:35] <Kotono> roll 2d4+18
06[21:35] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d4+18 and gets 25." [2d4=4, 3]
[21:35] <Alicia> OOC: I'll stop holding and attack at this point, since it's clear things'll only end in blood
[21:35] <Kotono> The creature claws into Seira with disgusting anger! It's face twists into something utterly loathesome - and at this, Donald takes action as well, sword working out! OOC: Okay.
03[21:36] * Kotono changes topic to '>Polly(26)>Alicia=Pretty Creature=Donald>Deme=Seira(13)>Amaryl'
01[21:36] <Seira> "I offered you my home!" Seira snaps at it. "I offered you my friendship! And you dare ask why?!"
[21:36] <Alicia> roll 1d20+22 knowledge
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+22 knowledge and gets 27." [1d20=5]
[21:36] <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+18 and gets 35." [1d20=17]
[21:36] <Kotono> roll 1d20+13
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+13 and gets 22." [1d20=9]
[21:36] <Kotono> roll 1d20+8
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+8 and gets 28." [1d20=20]
[21:36] <Kotono> roll 1d20+8
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+8 and gets 17." [1d20=9]
[21:36] <Kotono> roll 2d8+14
06[21:36] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 2d8+14 and gets 27." [2d8=8, 5]
[21:37] <Kotono> Donald hacks into it's side, ripping unholy flesh away, "I loved you for a moment and now this? I was a damned idiot to think for a moment that anything good would come from the baatezu and the tana'ri! Go back to whatever festering pit will have you, wench!"
[21:37] <Alicia> There's nothing to be done but put it down like a mad animal, now. "Find peace, wherever you go," she intones sadly, slashing down with Hell Striker at her back as she lays into Seira!
[21:37] <Alicia> roll 1d20+24 flanking
06[21:37] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+24 flanking and gets 29." [1d20=5]
[21:37] <Alicia> roll 1d20+219flanking
06[21:37] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+219flanking and gets Error: Numeric values only." [1d20=7]
[21:38] <Alicia> roll 1d20+14 flanking, last roll was 26
06[21:38] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+14 flanking, last roll was 26 and gets 32." [1d20=18]
[21:38] <Kotono> OOC: one hit.
[21:39] <Alicia> roll 1d8+10+2d6+1d6
06[21:39] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d8+10+2d6+1d6 and gets 27." [1d8=4][2d6=4, 3][1d6=6]
[21:39] <Kotono> Alicia slams it with her blade, staggering it back and drawing more blood! OOC: Deme'n'Seira tag team hour.
06[21:40] * Seira cuts loose! This creature ran out of excuses and misunderstandings ages ago, as she'd told Demedais and Pollyanna.
01[21:40] <Seira> roll 1d20+20
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+20 and gets 30." [1d20=10]
01[21:40] <Seira> roll 1d20+15
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+15 and gets 23." [1d20=8]
01[21:40] <Seira> roll 1d20+14
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+14 and gets 19." [1d20=5]
01[21:40] <Seira> roll 1d20+14
06[21:40] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 1d20+14 and gets 27." [1d20=13]
[21:40] <Kotono> OOC: One hit.
01[21:41] <Seira> roll 3d8+9+5d8
06[21:41] * Hatbot --> "Seira rolls 3d8+9+5d8 and gets 42." [3d8=3, 1, 6][5d8=8, 2, 3, 6, 4]
[21:41] <Kotono> Seira stabs into it's chest again! The creature is buckling, bleeding so much and so painfully! OOC: Deme?
06[21:41] * Demedais steps in lightly toward the fighting as well, stepping to the devil's side and slashing upward with as much force as he can muster! "Let's end this..."
[21:43] <Demedais> roll 1d20+18 (-4 PA, flanking)
06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+18 (-4 PA, flanking) and gets 38." [1d20=20]
[21:43] <Kotono> OOC: Crit check?
[21:43] <Demedais> roll 1d20+18 (-4 PA, flanking) crit check
06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+18 (-4 PA, flanking) crit check and gets 31." [1d20=13]
[21:43] <Kotono> OOC: C-c-crit.
[21:43] <Demedais> roll 4d6+17
06[21:43] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 4d6+17 and gets 28." [4d6=6, 2, 1, 2]
[21:44] <Demedais> OOC: Er. That should be 4d6+34, sorry.
[21:44] <Kotono> With a severing blow, Demedais cuts the woman in half from head to hips! With it's body already devastated, a final slice is easy. It fades away as it's blood gushes all over, painting Deme's sword red. Donald continues stabbing at it even as she vanishes, snarling! OOC: Free act.
[21:45] <Kotono> "Ugh..." Amaryl looks down, "It so enrapturing, like a sunset, but it was so repulsive when we saw it."
06[21:45] * Alicia flicks the ichor off her blade. "I had hoped that without any influence from Hell or the Abyss, she might have risen above her birthright... miserable thing should never have been brought into the world."
[21:46] <Kotono> "It was an abomination," Pollyanna sighs, "From what I know of both groups, what could you hope for but a monster?"
06[21:46] * Demedais rubs his head. "While we're all in radius, perhaps dropping the antimagic aura and checking to make sure no enchantment lingers is wise?"
[21:46] <Kotono> "Oh yes, it was a fucking monster," Donald stabs Guardianil into the floor several times, "A fucking repulsive monster. I want to bathe myself in water, in vinegar, in dragon-acid!"
06[21:47] * Seira remains silent through it all.
[21:47] <Alicia> "Perhaps it was a forlorn hope," Alicia admits, waving a hand to dispel her antimagic, her eyes glowing blue once more as she checks for enchantment auras.
[21:48] <Alicia> "The effect expired when she did. We needn't worry about feeling needlessly distraught thanks to compelled affection," Alicia explains with a sigh.
[21:48] <Kotono> Putting away her bow and arrow, "I guess Antenoras don't spring up so easily?" she tries to smile, but it doesn't really take. Instead, "You okay, Seira?"
[21:49] <Kotono> "Seira..."Amaryl goes to her, "S-sorry..."
[21:49] <Kotono> Donald finally slows and stops, going to kneel. He spits several times where the monster vanished. He murmurs a few words low, lost in his own thing.
01[21:50] <Seira> "For what? Let's just... let's just go home."
06[21:51] * Alicia nods, sparing a brief glance towards the chaos/law hybrid in the adjacent cell. "For the most part we are done here. Anything else will keep a time longer," she agrees, reaching out in preparation to teleport everyone away.
[21:51] <Demedais> "...Very well." Demedais says, not pressing the issue.
[21:51] <Alicia> roll 1d100 oasis
06[21:51] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 oasis and gets 16." [1d100=16]
[21:51] <Alicia> roll 1d100 home
06[21:51] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d100 home and gets 71." [1d100=71]
[21:53] <Kotono> ---
[21:54] <Kotono> The next day, the party gathers to scry once more...OOC: Set your spells. Once they are, declare your scries and DCs.
06[21:55] * Seira scries quietly, only her day-long spells precast.
01[21:55] <Seira> OOC: dc24
[21:55] <Kotono> roll 1d20+12
06[21:55] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d20+12 and gets 16." [1d20=4]
[21:58] <Kotono> At last, Seira's mirror can see! You see a room with walls of perfectly even gears and cogs. Sitting on the floor besides a simple chair is the oozecat. It is not moving, simply waiting. Besides it is a golden machine, dressed in a loose white robe. Another one just like th eother golden machine stands in front of the oozecat. It speaks, "Process 37 of 44 completed," It intones. "We will begin Process 38 immediately."
[21:58] <Kotono> It intones. "We will begin Process 38 immediately."
[21:59] <Demedais> "Excellent... Thank you, Seira." Demedais murmurs, before frowning, trying to recognize the machines.
[21:59] <Kotono> OOC: K:R or K:P check, that's close enough to some of the Helm stuff you'd hvae studied to have an idea.
[21:59] <Alicia> "It... seems like they have it under control," Alicia frowns slightly as she studies the image in the mirror.
[21:59] <Alicia> roll 1d20+24 planes
06[21:59] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+24 planes and gets 39." [1d20=15]
[21:59] <Demedais> roll 1d20+15 okay
07[21:59] * Ginrai is on IRC (Ginrai)
06[21:59] * Hatbot --> "Demedais rolls 1d20+15 okay and gets 22." [1d20=7]
01[22:00] <Seira> "Or the other way around," Seira notes.
[22:00] <Demedais> "Agreed with Seira. I'd rather finish it now than learn it's made oozegear children."
[22:01] <Alicia> "Well, first of all we need to get to Mechanus," Alicia points out. "I can't teleport us there."
[22:01] <Kotono> Meanwhile, one of the golden robots takes it's hand, touching the head of the oozecat. "Analyzing slime consistency and acidic level."
01[22:02] <Seira> "Is it even in Mechanus?" Seira wonders.
[22:02] <Demedais> "Definitely Mechanus constructs, but nothing else..." Demedais murmurs, watching. "I don't know, honestly. That's my best guess, but... mm. Is the cat subdued, perhaps? And perhaps Elle or Father Ceiar can accompany us there."
01[22:03] <Seira> "How about we try a teleport and see if it gets us there?"
[22:03] <Alicia> "Those creatures are certainly natives," Alicia shrugs. "And the surroundings look appropriate."
01[22:03] <Seira> "It could be some part of the control base we just missed, can't it?"
[22:03] <Alicia> "Alright, I'll try," Alicia agrees dubiously, gathering everyone around and focusing on the image in the mirror as she casts...
[22:04] <Alicia> OOC: it's either studied carefully or false destination, which changes what I roll
[22:04] <Kotono> OOC: False destination.
[22:04] <Alicia> roll 1d20+80 81-92 similar area 92+ mishap
06[22:04] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+80 81-92 similar area 92+ mishap and gets 88." [1d20=8]
[22:05] <Kotono> The spell fizzles and fails.
06[22:06] * Alicia shakes her head. "No good. Still, it does look like they have it under control..." she peers at the mirror. "Lets at least see how this plays out?"
01[22:07] <Seira> "The spell is limited in duration," Seira says. "But I could try recasting it tomorrow and try Message to speak with one of the constructs."
06[22:07] * Demedais nods. "It sounded as if Helm wanted it dealt with, but yes, let's observe to make sure we understand the situation."
[22:07] <Kotono> The oozecat flows about the hand of the golden robot. "Analyzing..." it repeats, while another comes into view. It is a small little robot with tiny wireframe wings. "Greater Superior, the Office of Observation has sent me to inform you that a 94% odds unauthorized scrying attempt has been detected."
[22:07] <Alicia> "Hmm, looks like they've spotted us. This could clarify matters," Alicia muses.
[22:08] <Kotono> With the head of the oozecat still held, "94% odds is above the nessisary threshhold for action. Can you divine who and where they are scrying from?"
01[22:08] <Seira> "Should I drop the spell?"
[22:08] <Kotono> "It is being done, Greater Superior," The tiny creature buzzes.
06[22:08] * Demedais nods. "This being said, let me handle diplomacy when we go." At this... "Probably, yes."
[22:08] <Alicia> "Lets not," Alicia suggests. "If they come to us it'll speed things up?"
[22:09] <Kotono> After a few more moments, "It is from the Prime Material Plane, Greater Superior. Shall we initiatite contact or punitive matters?"
[22:09] <Kotono> "Contact," Despite the oozecat growling, "If it is your enemies, then so be it."
[22:10] <Demedais> "...That is another way of going about it, I suppose." Demedais replies. "And... if they do come, please keep weapons to the side."
01[22:10] <Seira> "Seems like we'll talk," Seira muses, her own weapon sheathed. "Maybe we'll even get to sell those useless books on exciting uses of ooze?"
[22:10] <Alicia> "At least it doesn't look like they're taking orders from the cat," Alicia seems mollified. "If they want to hold it prisoner I've no objection."
[22:11] <Kotono> "It shall be," The tiny creature says. It's buzz is ost as Seira's mirror flickers! It twists into the image of an Inevitable. It's clockwork head is all that's seen, filling up Seira's scrying mirror. "Prime Material creatures, you have conducted an unauthorized scrying into Mechanus. Explain yourselves pursuiant to Extraplanr Contact Coda mark 392-39P-XZM."
[22:11] <Kotono> roll 1d100
06[22:11] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d100 and gets 61." [1d100=61]
[22:11] <Alicia> roll 1d20+24 planes, what's that coda all about?
06[22:11] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+24 planes, what's that coda all about? and gets 38." [1d20=14]
01[22:12] <Seira> As befits their plans for a diplomatic approach, Seira lets Demedais take the central spot, herself staying in the background.
06[22:12] * Alicia is happy enough to let Demedais handle this as well, since he surely understands their mindset best.
[22:14] <Demedais> "Our apologies." Demedais says plainly, stepping forward. "We have been sanctioned to eliminate the oozecat that is present amongst you, by Helm's request; it is a construct of the gnomish faction from this world that sought to eliminate all life here. We are willing to deal with you, if it can be delivered here; we have books on its creation that may assist your understanding."
[22:18] <Kotono> "We acknowledge your claimant of Helm's sponsorship." A curt nod there, "However, we cannot do so. The 'oozecat', as you call it, has applied for beneficial alysum and eventual transport to Baator under the Caim-Septus treaty. By our laws, he is under our protection until his return to Baator. If you wish, you may appeal this ruling and ask for a legally sanctioned exception. To do so, you will need to appeal to the Office of Extra-Planar affa
[22:18] <Kotono> To do so, you will need to appeal to the Office of Extra-Planar affairs. Should you desire to do so and come to Mechanus, we can arrainge an orderly transport."
06[22:19] * Seira whispers to Demedais, "Ask if that ensures our safety and freedom until our departure from Mechanus."
06[22:20] * Alicia honestly has no real objection here. They intended to send it back to Hell themselves, anyway...
[22:22] <Demedais> "I understand. I would request the opportunity to appeal for the exemption. If we may come to Mechanus to do so, it would be greatly appreciated; I will request that all who come with me, as well as myself, are not harmed and given permission to move within non-restricted zones while there."
06[22:23] * Alicia covers her mouth as she whispers, "Do we really want to fight this? It's going to Hell either way..."
06[22:24] * Seira doesn't really want to go, no, but.... "I think it's necessary," she whispers back, taking the same precautions. "Do you really want to give Hell yet another variant of devil to plague its enemies with?"
[22:26] <Kotono> "It can be done. This can be granted, as long as none of you are in previous violation of the laws and regulations of Mechanus. Further, there is the matter of unauthorized scrying. The information provided to me here is enough to assert and convict. Under the circumstances, sub-code 49-XU9 allows for leinency. The sentence can be reduced to a fine of 500 gold coins or 50 hours of service within Mechanus."
[22:26] <Kotono> 500 gold coins or 50 hours of service within Mechanus."
[22:26] <Kotono> "I'm not so sure," Pollyanna joins in on the whispering, "It's going to Hell anyway, who are we to stop it? It' sjust a waste of our itme."
[22:27] <Alicia> roll 1d20+24
06[22:27] * Hatbot --> "Alicia rolls 1d20+24 and gets 42." [1d20=18]
[22:29] <Demedais> "I will cover the fine." Demedais replies to this with a slight nod. "I presume an escort will be provided to guide us to Mechanus properly?"
06[22:29] * Alicia can't help but agree with Pollyanna, but Seira and Demedais seem insistent...
[22:30] <Kotono> "Very well. Transport will arrive at your location in 59 minutes, 38 seconds." With that, the mirror goes blank and smoothly dark.
[22:30] <Kotono> "Oh joyous. On one hand, I'm completely in favor of carving up that damned cat," Donald begins, "But Mechanus? Really? When it's going to Hell?"
01[22:30] <Seira> "Enjoy your trip," Seira says with faked happiness, patting Demedais's shoulder.
[22:31] <Alicia> "It seems a lot of trouble to go to just so we can send it to Hell ourselves in a more violent fashion," Alicia comments now that the inevitable can't hear them.
[22:31] <Kotono> "I don't know...we shouldn't let it get away," Amaryl shakes her head, "If we can stop it now and hopefully put it down, it's worth it."
[22:31] <Demedais> "Seira, I'm going to gutcheck on saying you probably don't want to come, yes." Demedais nods to her. "And... do we know it's going to Hell if it dies?"
[22:31] <Demedais> "Let me rephrase that. Do we know it is going to Hell as an oozecat?"
01[22:31] <Seira> "It's just as I've said," Seira insists. "We really, really don't want Hell in general or our enemies there to gain access to a determined, unique foe such as this."
[22:31] <Kotono> "Say," Donald rubs his chin, "Here's a thought. It's all laws over there, right? How about you apply to place it under arrest of the Baronies while you're there? Could yo udo something like that?"
01[22:32] <Seira> "More importantly, didn't Helm say it was imperative for us to act? He's been an ass recently, but he has consistently been on our side."
[22:33] <Kotono> "Seira!" Pollyanna glares at her, "Dont' call Helm an ass! That's blasphemy!"
01[22:33] <Seira> "Smite me."
[22:33] <Kotono> roll 1d1000
06[22:33] * Hatbot --> "Kotono rolls 1d1000 and gets 408." [1d1000=408]
[22:33] <Kotono> If Seira is to be smited, there's no sign of it.
[22:33] <Alicia> "It'd probably be demoted if we killed it, certainly, but that just postpones things until it's able to recover," Alicia shrugs. "It just feels very petty to be fighting this."
[22:34] <Kotono> "Well, if we let it go, then what?" Pollyanna turns away from Seira in a huff, crossing her arms. "Is there a threat if we let it skip off to Hell, seriously?"
01[22:34] <Seira> "It was engineered into its present form, so I doubt it could recover fully without outside interference," Seira points out.
[22:34] <Demedais> "I may request that we transfer him to the custody of the Baronies, yes." Demedais says, before glancing to Alicia. "Do we want Hell to figure out how to make more ooze cats? Better it be demoted and take the secret with it than grant Hell this knowledge."
[22:36] <Kotono> "Well, if just Demedais and maybe another person is going," Pollyanna drifts towards Demedais, "Even at worst, it's only two of us and not taking up too much time and effort, too? It's not like we all have to come."
[22:36] <Alicia> "Effort they spend on making oozecats is effort they don't spend on making hellfire spewing juggernaughts or any number of other projects," Alicia replies. "I mean... if one of us had hit it with a dismissal while fighting and sent it straight back to hell, would we be pursuing it then as well?"
01[22:36] <Seira> "Hey, Demedais, when some inevitable arrives, can you try to find some clause that lets me come along safely?"
01[22:37] <Seira> At Alicia's words, she says, "We had a chance to do so and didn't take it. You're talking about a theoretical situation that didn't take place, but this one is quite real."
[22:37] <Kotono> "Yeah, that is a point," Donald murmurs, "But no matter what, hey! Feel free to spend a few weeks in Mechanus, Demedais!" Donald says brightly. "See the gears! Touch the Inevitables! Taste the laws!"
[22:38] <Demedais> "I'm not sure I can pull it this time, but while there I'll check in and see if I can get them to stop sending anything after you." Demedais replies with a bit of regret on his face, before glancing to Donald. "Hey, want a fun fact? I'm not terribly fond of Inevitables either. But I'll deal with them if I need to."
[22:38] <Kotono> "Really?" Scratching at his head, "I thought you'd wanna add gears to Pollyanna or something."
[22:38] <Kotono> "Donald..." Drawing in a very long breath, "Shut up." Pollyanna turns away from him as welll.
01[22:38] <Seira> "Fun. I'm all for negotiating over the hate they have for me, but I can't do that if they keep on trying to arrest me or assassinate me."
[22:39] <Demedais> "Donald, your mind will forever remain unfathomable to me." Demedais shakes his head. "And I think I prefer it like that." Then, to Seira, "I'll look into the issue."
01[22:40] <Seira> "Nice!"
03[22:41] * Demedais is now known as tai-queasy
[22:42] <tai-queasy> Demedais makes sure he has the slime books with him, creating amanuensis'd copies before he goes.
03[22:45] * Seira is now known as CC
