Around you the devils untouched cheer Glasya on as your very life force is stolen away, a shudder going throughout you as she giggles, "Come on, Alicia and Sulia. Let me show you that some divinity burns far brighter than others."

Alicia.

"Most of us try to avoid burning in general," Alicia says, flying over the flank untouched by Sulia's earlier assault. "But I think we've heard enough from your sychophants here," she says, her sword flying out and churning through Avernus's landscape and devils alike before it comes back to her hand and she sends it off in the other direction to do the same, a beam of silver fire zig-zagging through the stragglers to deal with any survivors!

"Yeah!" Donald calls, "Geez, you need a lot of ego boosters, don't you? But women usually do, and if you're a big woman, that means you need more?"

Meanwhile your whirling blades rip through the enemy lines, tearing through wounded devils, clearing hunks and chunks of them away. Silver fire follows, wiping out more and more of the circle as...

> roll 1d20+23
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 41 > [d20=18]

The devils are badly reduced but still many remain, as...

Donald in the next post. Feel free to react if you want.

[Ebiris]

No, no meaningful reaction right now.

[Anastasia]

Meanwhile Donald slashes at Glasya, struggling to keep her occupied, holding the line all the while.

> roll 5#1d20 swording Donald, will sort it all out if he gets any 20s
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 11, 4, 14, 3, 18 >
> roll 1d20 bite since that's urely a good idea
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 1 > [d20=1]

Yet Glasya is impossible to touch, moving with preternatural power, smiling after miss after miss. She holds her hands behind her back, "Does this help, big boy?" she giggles, as...

Init is Glasya (Supreme Initiative) > Alicia (40) > Donald (23) > Grandakalos (22) > Sulia (21) > Latha (15)

A ripple on the horizon. A twisting of air as Glasya looks up, "Oh, there's our next bit of entertainment. Alicia, Sulia, minions, it's been enjoyable. But let me introduce you to my Gradakalos."

It comes in as a ripple, air displacing a few thousand feet above you. Far above is a massive ship, long and narrow, made entirely of rich white bone. "The Hag Countess called it her spine, but well, she doesn't need it anymore."

From above bright green beams drift around, sweeping the battlefield with no immediate effect.

Sulia's up in the next post. Chance to react again if you like.

[Ebiris]

I've basically just been sticking to colossal as like 30-40 feet tall because that does the job and I don't get any mechanical bonuses for going higher. But if I did go to 1600 feet tall as per Alter Size's limit would I be able to reach Gradakalos?

[Anastasia]

If not it would be close and in reach of your weapon, sure.

[Ebiris]

"What interesting toys you have," Alicia says, looking up.

'I can handle that at least,' she says into their telepathic network.

[Anastasia]

"They won't avail you, Glasya," Empress Sulia declares, raising her quarterstaff up. "Not here, not ever." Spheres of glowing light surround her as she intones, "The seventh gate of the seventh sun shall open wide in my name! From them come 49 blessings that shall shine forever!"

Radiant assaults burst through the remaining devils around the party, slicing through them like glowing scythes.

> roll 1d20+34 Rei
<Rei-chan> Kotono rolled : 1d20+34 Rei --> [ 1d20=16 ]{50}
> roll 1d20+23 Rei again
<Rei-chan> Kotono rolled : 1d20+23 Rei again --> [ 1d20=5 ]{28}

Devils scream and howl as the light decimates them further. Well more than half are nothing but broken dust and glass of the wind, the howls of the infernal echoing across the battlefield.

Init is Glasya (Supreme Initiative) > Alicia (40) > Donald (23) > Grandakalos (22) > Sulia (21) > Latha (15)

"Everyone, keep going!" Latha calls, as celestial energies fill you, bolster you. She rises up, shedding light brighter and brighter, "Forward!"

Celestial Valor on all. +8 sacred vs fear and negative emotions, +4 sacred attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws and armor class. Weapons are treated as holy, doesn't stack. Glasya.

"See?" Glasya purrs, eyes glowing brighter and brighter.

Glasya's doing something without obvious effects. Alicia, go.

"Still, a creation of bone like that... maybe you should donate it to your brother?" Alicia suggests, looking up at the spine-ship in the sky. And then she gets bigger.

A lot bigger.

Stretching up into the sky of Avernus, devils and deities alike are reduced to the perspective of ants as Alicia grows like a titan out of legend, her enormous hand stretching to rake through the sky as the hulk of Grandakalos is enveloped in her fist and then hurled like a javelin down at Noir Jardin in the distance!

Does it count as a creature I have to grapple with or an object I can freely pick up?

Gimme a CMB check for grapple, yeah. It feels reasonably warranted by the situation.

[Ebiris]

[16:24] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+100 cmb, quickened true strike because missing the flying boat would be embarrassing and I have no idea what sort of stats it would have

With one massively over sized hand, Alicia grabs the ship above her as she looms over the battlefield. Grasping it in her hand, she feels a sphere of force surround it. Yet with her size and sheer power, she can keep a grip. She hurls it dead on at Noir Jardin, slamming into the courtyard and building proper. There is a tremendous screeching whine as the forcefield around the ship holds, flickering wildly as it plows through more and more of the fortress.

"Yeah!" Donald cheers below as Glasya stares on then to you, expression turning piqued. "That's my favorite ship, you bitch!"

Chance to react.

[Ebiris]

"I'm sure your brother will give it back if you ask nicely," Alicia retorts, glad her divine senses let her perceive well enough despite the distance between her head and Glasya.
