Smith (Jaela, Calleigh, Surraruthru)

[Corwin]

"Surraruthru, check out the ripple over here," Jaela orders, pointing out the spot. Kascha will be safe for a few moments in the midst of their formation, and the dragon's true seeing and talent with hiding may well come in handy.

She swaps her weapon for Gae Trocaire in case it's the unkillable daemon here to ambush them and prepares to intercept if that suspicion turns out to be true.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru does so, trying to keep as much distance as he can and using the ranks of the army and whatever floating bits of debris he can find as cover to do so stealthily.

[Anastasia]

Waiting on you to add your two cents here, Yuth.

[Yuthirin]

Any skills I can use to discern what it is?

[Anastasia]

K:P or K:Psionics, latter's easier if you have actual ranks in it.

[Corwin]

K:P

[22:41] <@Annerose> roll 1d20+48
[22:41] <Kobot> Annerose rolled 1d20+48 --> [ 1d20=19 ]{67}

[Anastasia]

Since Yuth's at work and not by computer, could someone roll the check for him? I figure he'll request it anyway when he sees it, so may as well cut out the middle man.

[Nephrite]

[16:02] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+37 K:Psi
[16:02] <Kobot> Nephrite rolled 1d20+37 K:Psi --> [ 1d20=10 ]{47}

[Anastasia]

Thanks.

Both can tell that the ripple is some sort of planar disturbance. It's an after effect of the storm that passed, a distortion that flares up if the area affected by it is soon affected by powerful magic or someone bearing such magic.

Tryll can also tell it's fairly harmless, so long as you move away and don't have powerful magic directly affect it. It'll pass on its own.

[Yuthirin]

"As long as we stay away from it, we should be fine." Calleigh says. "Don't cast magic at it! It's just a waste since we can avoid it. It was caused by the storm."

[Anastasia]

The army seems to be holding for now. Reinforcements are rushing to Ithea's side, who seems to be making a rally and pushing the undead back. For the moment, things appear stable enough.

If any of you want to give orders or take actions, now's the chance. I'm gonna go resolve the next round in Ithea's thread in the meantime.

[Iron Dragoon]

Nothing's directly impacting us or requires me to buff. I could blast some, but I think I'll hold off and save my spells for now.

[Corwin]

"Tepen and Vul'lath, put walls of fire or their equivalent into the gap. Make the undead pay for charging through! Kascha, with me. The rest, deploy to where our allies suffered the worst and Turn the enemy!"

Intention is to have the commanders deploy to the worst hit spots of Ithea's army and use Turning to heal our allies/burn the undead, while Tepen and Vul'lath make a gauntlet for the still charging undead.

[Anastasia]

Got it. I'll integrate that into the next turn over there. That'll pend posts there, which hopefully shouldn't be long.

[Anastasia]

Watching, things look to be getting better. The chaos is settling around you while your officers stiffen Ithea's lines. The undead are starting to be rolled back, the hordes punished and broken.

As Kascha flies over to Jaela...

> roll 1d20+33 Listen
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+33 --> [ 1d20=17 ]{50} Listen
> roll 1d20+40
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+40 --> [ 1d20=6 ]{46}

She seems to hear something, because she turns and dodges. A blur of something whizzes by her neck, missing it by a few inches. "Aaaah!" Kascha yelps, darting over to Jaela and turning round, brandishing her sword defensively.
