Infiltrating a diabolical stronghold (full party)

[Merc]

OOC: He's not up yet! He still has to roll! ^_~

[Iron Dragoon]

[Anastasia]

With a great deal of effort and struggle, Lief stands up. He's able to function despite the crushing gravity, weakened but not down.

That was a move action. You can take the rest of your turn normally -a  standard action and a swift action. Note that spells and SLAs are automatically quickened in the Astral.

[Iron Dragoon]

*Uses Ithea's help to rise up, and spotting the incoming threats, snaps a flight of arrows off!*

OOC: Targeting the devil nearest to Sylvie, I guess.

The swarm of arrows flies true, one in each eye of the first gelugon. The insect-like eyes shatter like glass instead of popping like flesh, as a third goes through the throat of the devil. It gasps and stumbles - just in time for the last arrow to go right into its forehead, all the way through and out. The devil dissolves into melting black ice, dead.

Sylvie whistles lowly, a sound that carries in the burning air. "You know what? I'm tired of devils already." She withdraws a book from nowhere, opening it up and reading three otherworldly, powerful words from it.

<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 157 > [d12=8,7,2,10,7,3,7,5,4,7,5,12,3,11,4,8,8,8,9,1,7]

<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 20 > [d20=5]
> roll 1d20+14
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 33 > [d20=19]

The beam of light that comes causes the devils to fade away like the last shadow of night before the dawn. 21 vanishes from her hands after, "I was going to tell you to go ahead while I hold the flank, but that works too."

Free act. Environmental damage incoming.

> roll 10d6 fire damage
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 31 > [d6=3,2,4,2,3,4,1,5,2,5]

A whopping 1 fire damage this round.

*continues straining against the gravity with Ithea's help, waiting for someone to get rid of the damnable spell.*

"I figured, if your luck seems as terrible as it's been that you're getting stuck behind, I might as well help out. You're having worse luck than I normally do, you know," Ithea replies as she starts heading back in the direction of the enchantment source, helping Lief along.

[Anastasia]

"Just go," Sylvie calls, "I'll hold down the flank. Knock out that heat enchantment already, we're on a clock." Sylvie turns to the door, falling into a fighting stance.

Waiting on Muirfinn now.

[Yuthirin]

Muirfinn shifts back to dragon form, grunting as he pushes himself off the ground.

[10:06] <Muirfinn> roll 1d20+17 str check
[10:06] <Serith> Muirfinn roll for Serith < 37 >12 [d20=20]

HP: 270/300
AC: 70
Active Effects: Camouflage, Primal Instinct, Fast Healing 11, immune to fire, SR 27

[Anastasia]

Conditions: Ongoing heat damage (10d6 a round), heavy gravity (-2 to Balance, Climb, Jump, Ride, Swim and Tumble checks, -2 to attack rolls, ranged weapon ranged halved, falling damage increased to 1d10 per 10ft), astral flight (10ft speed per point of Intelligence, perfect maneuverability), automatic spell quickening (spells are automatically quickened), timelessness (time does not pass normally, creatures do not age/hunger/thirst, items do not decay, wounds do not heal without magic).

With added draconic strength, dragon-Muirfinn is able to stand up and move. It's still hard, but he's up and mobile. Thus the party heads down the stairs. The gravity is heavy here, making it difficult to breathe and slow going. You're up but moving, heading down the stairs. Or starting to. Ahead you can see slits in thew all opening. From them gushes of lava erupt out, spraying all about the steps. From the roof more murder holes open, blue-green gas leaking out.

> roll 10d6 fire damage
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 31 > [d6=1,1,3,5,2,5,4,2,3,5]

1 more fire damage to all but Muirfinn.

[Merc]

OOC: Can I polar ray the lava to turn it back to rock/block the lava? How much time do I think that would buy us? Also, as asked in #elysium, do we still have astral flight, or was that overwritten by heavy gravity? Your previous posts implied it. If overwritten, do we still move at 10ft/Int just without flight, or do we move as normal for land?

[Anastasia]

1. Yes, though not all the lava's connected and there's only so much a single ray could do. Something with a radius would work better.

2. You think how much time it would buy you would depend on the spell and how far it goes. The stronger the cold damage, the better.

3. Conditions has been updated to reflect that flight is currently offline.

[Merc]

OOC: I'll wait for Muirfinn to act, since he has better spells for environmental hazards. My only area-based spell involves fatigue and lightning. I don't think I can make the lava fatigued.

[Yuthirin]

Muirfinn's scales shift to silver as he blasts the area filling with lava with a torrent of ice and snow!

[23:10] <Muirfinn> roll 22d6 cold
[23:10] <Serith> Muirfinn roll for Serith < 63 >12 [d6=3,3,5,6,3,4,2,3,2,1,6,1,4,2,2,2,2,2,1,4,4,1]

Could this potentially drop the ambient temperature for a time?

[Anastasia]

The blast of super-cooled air freezes the lava solid, turning it into long strings of volcanic rock instead. It hits the ground hard, the sprayers clogged by this sudden change. Steamy fog explodes out everywhere, obscuring the way ahead.

No heat damage this round due to the sudden cooling. Act, y'all.
