Arrows. Before anyone else Miranda has fired, arrows peppering the face of the creature. It cries out in a dull, rumbling sort of pain as Dana grins, rushing right up to it and...

Dana manages to pierce into its cheek, rapier burrowing in deep. "Let's fucking end this shit!"

Tryll.

A beam of superheated Twinned Empowered Maximized Energy Lance (fire)
Fort DC 27 halves
360 damage
SR:[blockquote]Rolled 1d20+34 : 18 + 34, total 52[/blockquote]

[Yuthirin]

Ahaha I'm half asleep.

A beam of super-heated air lances out from Tryll to strike the face directly in the...face.

Meant to be +25 so it's a total of 37.

The blast of flame lances right through the creature's head, exploding viciously and leaving most of it's upper head a melting ruin. Yet as it stays there....

That it for your turn, Tryll?

[Yuthirin]

Yessir.

[Anastasia]

The head is hit hard, and what remains of it retreats into the ice, out of sight. You...well, it's not over, but it's not attacking you. Are you safe?

Free act for now.

[Yuthirin]

"We really are gonna have to fight every wacko in this place, aren't we?" Calleigh complains as she re-seats herself on Miranda's shoulder.

[Anastasia]

"I hope so!" Dana says, while Debonah merely clears her throat. "We need to hurry, find the city and make an impact, rather than wandering these tunnels."

[Yuthirin]

'Let's go find someone who looks like they're in charge and ask them. Maybe someone who's not a giant face made of ice that wants to enslave us.' Tryll says.

[Anastasia]

Moving ahead, then?

[Yuthirin]

please

[Anastasia]

Ahead, past all of this and past the side passages, just flat onward? An archway of ice is ahead, leading to a stairway going up. Brighter light comes from just above where you can see on that stairway, the air fresher, colder from it.

[Yuthirin]

"Ohhh! Either we're headed outside, or maybe to the city!" Calleigh cheers. "Either way, we'll know where we are!"

[Anastasia]

Thus the party steps out and beyond. Here is a vast hollow within the glacier. Spires of ice and stone rise tall, buildings connected by bridges high above the ground. You come on a cliffside with a road winding down, a great city of ice before you. It is roughly shaped as a wheel, with the towers rising taller in the spokes of the wheel and shorter in the center.

[Yuthirin]

"It's made of ice. I'm surprised and I don't know why." Calleigh grumps.

'Let's just get down there.' Tryll says.
