The past burns (Afina, Tryll)

[Anastasia]

Okay, cool. Not going to roll saves, there's so many that averages are called for. Also won't matter in some cases.

Chaos and fire follows. Mostly fire as explosions begin to rock the caste, spreading out in both directions as you summon a tornado, which rips into the erinyes patrollers and scatters them alla bout. Explosion after explosion rocks the castle as winds howl, walls shaking and some crumbling.

[Ebiris]

"Lets go, from above!" Afina shouts over the howling of her generated winds, flying up above the walls now and gesturing at the centre of the castle as she summons an earthquake to further ruin its inhabitants' day! She also hastes the party because that's what she does.

Earthquake SLA, 80 foot radius aimed at the midpoint of the castle. Structure takes 100 points of damage (ignores hardness). If it collapses then any creatures beneath take 8d6 from collapsing rubble (DC 15 ref half) and get pinned

[Yuthirin]

Tryll and Calleigh follow after Afina silently!

[Anastasia]

Everyone follows. The castle shakes under Afina's power as walls collapse along with a few towers. The earthquake only makes it worse - save for the center, which as the shaking stops and the explosions cease, seem to be the only intact segment. The rest of the chaos is on fire, collapsed, damaged or just totalled. A cloud of dust rises up from the fallen towers, caught by the tornado and tossed all about.

[Yuthirin]

'That makes this easy.' Trylls says.

Meanwhile, Calleigh's face is a mask of glee and wonder, taking in the chaos and fire as she keeps pace with Tryll.

[Anastasia]

'Judgment from above,' The Master says, watching the chaos calmly.

[Ebiris]

Flying unmolested towards the centre with all the guards dead or in disarray, Afina reflects that she could get used to doing sneaking missions like this. Maybe she'll bring Dana along next time? Yes, she'd like that.

Reaching the centremost point she opts to introduce herself properly, stopping time long enough to prepare some beneficial spells and disintegrate a chunk of roof before dropping a magmaberg down on whoever's there!

8th level slot for 3 rounds time stopped.
Round 1: cast shield
Round 2: cast fires of purity
round 3: cast disintegrate on roof
[21:43] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+38 ranged touch on disintegrate
[21:43] <Kobot> Ebiris rolled 1d20+38 ranged touch on disintegrate --> [ 1d20=11 ]{49}
When time stop ends casting an energy substituted iceberg through the hole.
[21:44] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+27 magmaberg SR
[21:44] <Kobot> Ebiris rolled 1d20+28 magmaberg SR --> [ 1d20=19 ]{47}
This does 120 crushing damage to anything directly below it (within 20 feet of the hole I made in the ceiling), no save and is buried under magma. Anything between 20 and 40 feet of impact gets to make a DC 36 reflex save or suffer the same fate. Half damage and not buried if save is made. Anything between 40 and 60 feet takes 60 damage, DC 36 reflex half, with no risk of being buried

[Anastasia]

The roof disintegrates as desired, crumbling away into dust. Below are ornate rooms - a single pit fiend looking up in surprise as the magmaberg falls right on her. The ground shakes with the impact, magma flowing everywhere.

Act freely for now, she's not in position to do anything but try to escape.

[Ebiris]

"Willah? I hope that's you, it'd be a shame to go to all this trouble for a generic pit fiend," Afina says as she flies down through the opening in the ceiling like a figure out of nightmare... if you're a devil anyway. Winds continue to rage and howl, now centred solely on the midpoint of the fortress and raging unimpeded across its radius while Afina works some magic into the magma so as to leech the life out of anything within. "Don't touch the magma anyone else, it's not healthy," she suggests to her allies.

Casting a fire substituted Blood Snow on the magma.
[21:56] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+28 blood snow SR
[21:56] <Kobot> Ebiris rolled 1d20+28 blood snow SR --> [ 1d20=9 ]{37}
DC 29 fort or suffer 1d2 con drain per round while also being nauseated (no effect if the save is made)

Also relevant rules for being buried by snow, which should apply to magma in this case since it's just an energy subbed ice spell

A buried creature can free itself with a DC 25 Strength check,
or can be dug out by other creatures. In 1 minute, using only its
hands, a creature can clear ice and debris equal to five times its
heavy load limit (see Table 9–1: Carrying Capacity, page 162 of
the Player's Handbook). The amount of tightly packed snow that
fills a 5-foot-by-5-foot area weighs 500 pounds. Armed with an
appropriate tool, such as a pick, crowbar, or shovel, a digger can
clear loose ice and debris twice as quickly as by hand.

> roll 1d20+39
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+39 --> [ 1d20=15 ]{54}

The magma - stops. A powerful force throws it all side, revealing what is buried beneath. The pit fiend is burnt by your searing flames but intact, about 20ft below the party as the castle rocks and shakes. Her voice is seductive, even as she heaps scorn on you. "Aurora and Ilsenine's attack dog," she declares, wearing a rather battered silk dress, tightly clinging to her scaled body. She's beautiful in spite of it all, alluring in a way that awakens desires in all of you (besides Tryll). She stumbles and grimaces, holding one shoulder with her arm, "Surrender."

[Yuthirin]

"...LAME." Calleigh says. "That wasn't even a proper evil monologue!"

Can I Detect Psionics to see if that's an active effect or if it's ambient?

[Anastasia]

Yes, but hold that for now, as there's good odds this is about to go all initiative.

[Ebiris]

"Her Majesty requests your presence, Willah," Afina says, unperturbed by the attack dog accusation. It's true after all! "Refusal I'm afraid is not an option."

And then because she's surely prepared plenty of defensive spells of her own in the time since Afina started blowing everything up, she points at the devil and forcibly disjoins her magic! Might even get whatever she's been doing to Lief with it.

Casting disjunction on my turn, how many checks to dispel?

[22:07] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+30 init

That would kick off. Roll init, Tryll and Calleigh.
