Boots on the ground (Moore)

[Anastasia]

The creature before you stands 40ft away. It is clad in white, including a hooded robe that covers its face. Only the gleaming of red eyes can be seen, and it carries no weapon.

"You'll fetch me a small fortune," He says in a silibant whisper, before lunging at the two of you.

Troubles. Roll init.

[Nephrite]

[22:18] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+34
[22:18] <Serith> Nephrite roll for Serith < 54 > [d20=20]

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d20+25 Adrian
<Serith> Koaway roll for Serith < 35 > [d20=10]
> roll 1d20+14 hooded creature
<Serith> Koaway roll for Serith < 15 > [d20=1]

Init is Moore (54) > Adrian (35) > Hooded Creature (15)

Go.

[Nephrite]

Moore shakes his head. "You're very overconfident." He says, as words of power echo from him, inspiring Adrian and himself!

And then he also turns invisible.

He's casting Harmonize as a Standard, then Inspire Courage as a Move, and using a free action to turn invisible. +14 to attack and damage and saves against charm and fear. Adrian also gets +2 on attack rolls as a bonus.

[Anastasia]

"Who am I to want to deny a devil death?" Adrian says, before charging the hooded creature. He races forward, only to stop 10ft away and bounce back. With your true seeing, you see a spherical barrier briefly surround the hooded creature. It stops Adrian cold and smoothly repels his followup sword swing.

"Why am I to deny a fool death?" The hooded figure says, "Fate has spoken. Your death is at hand and will greatly enrich me."

The hooded creature raises his hand - perfectly pale white - and extends it out palm first. Twin beams of fire come, writhing into the shape of screaming faces as they seek both of you.

Going to drop an immediate, Moore?

[Nephrite]

Does it look like it's tracking me despite being invisible?

[Anastasia]

It's aimed in the right direction for you, yes.

[Nephrite]

Okay. Even if I used Mirror Image they'd all be invisible too so it wouldn't do me much good, so I'll just hope it's subject to SR! Which is 40. His Touch AC is 35.

[Anastasia]

Quick OOC note here: He's technically using two different effects here, so two separate SR rolls. Normally a single effect has one SR roll for everyone. Has to do with the shenanigans he's running.

> roll 1d20+41 touch AC Adrian hits unless 1
<Rei-chan> Koaway rolled : 1d20+41 touch AC Adrian hits unless 1 --> [ 1d20=17 ]{58}

> roll 1d20+25 vs SR 40 Moore
<Rei-chan> Koaway rolled : 1d20+25 vs SR 40 Moore --> [ 1d20=13 ]{38}

> roll 36d6 Adrian ow
<Rei-chan> Koaway rolled : 36d6 Adrian ow --> [ 36d6=108 ]{108}

Hellfire damage, ignores resistance here.

The beam hits Adrian directly in the chest, knocking him back as it bores a hole through his breastplate. His entire body bursts aflame, burning like a torch. Adrian's scream is a deep, echoing thing as he stays up.

The beam that hits you simply ceases to be, your magical resistance holding up to it. Whew.

Go.

'Tepen, we have a problem. Some white-skinned... something with red eyes. May need to get away, but could use help to topple them.' Moore thinks as he takes a breath and tries something!

Switching to Determined Caster aura in case he needs to break SR himself. Greater Dispel Magic as a Standard, then using inspire Greatness on himself and Adrian. Greatness gives 8d10 temp HP, +8 dodge to AC and +4 to fort.

[11:53] <Nephrite> roll 12d4 nonlethal
[11:53] <Rei-chan> Nephrite rolled : 12d4 nonlethal --> [ 12d4=32 ]{32}
[11:54] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+25+17 to overcome SR if it's there and if it's needed
[11:54] <Rei-chan> Nephrite rolled : 1d20+25+17 to overcome SR if it's there and if it's needed --> [ 1d20=18 ]{60}
[11:54] <Rei-chan> Nephrite rolled : 1d20+20 dispel magic --> [ 1d20=1 ]{21}

EDIT: forgot to roll the temp HP for myself [12:00] <Nephrite> roll 8d10 temp HP Moore
[12:00] <Rei-chan> Nephrite rolled : 8d10 temp HP Moore --> [ 8d10=54 ]{54}

[Anastasia]

No need, dispels don't allow SR. Your low roll there makes it rather moot anyway.

Your magic fails before the robed man, the dispel doing nothing.

'What is your location?' Tepen asks, 'We'll have reinforcements inbound. Take defensive action if you must, we can engage him with a larger force.'

Adrian's up next, but let's get your reply first.

[Nephrite]

Moore will look around for good landmarks to give them!

Take 10 on Spot if he can to reply. Idea is to just find something good to use as a reference and relay it.

[Anastasia]

You're up in the sky, a bit north of the tower you just cleared.

[Nephrite]

'In the air -- north of the 4-story tower we just took over.' Moore sends.

[Anastasia]

'Understood,' Tepen sends.

'We're stalling for time and reinforcements,' Adrian says, 'Keep me healed and keep him distracted. Can you do that?'
