"Tch," Alicia clucks her tongue. "We're all making errors today. Deadly ones for some," she elects to deal with the distractions first since they're both in range and should fall easily, her sword sweeping out at the brutish efreet first since he's proven able to harm her, before she'll dispose of the construct.

Attacks against Zamar get a +2 bonus to attack and damage, and the channelled vivacious flux grasp has its damage doubled. I'll roll the flux grasp damage last along with the +2d6+2 bane damage separately for convenience since I don't know when in the string the attacks switch over.

Zamar is a worthy foe - two blows don't fell him nor do three. It takes five before you finally slice his head off, his body falling away in a plume of flames - only to regather with healing, but another slash finishes that.

> roll 1d20+34
<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 53 > [d20=19]


Yet attacking Almas Al'aswad is almost futile. You barely chip his body, the acid only sizzling against him, leaving no marring at all. It's also repairing - it's one of the hardest things you've ever struck, taking your blows with surprising ability.

The dao begin to spread and flee, retreating from this battle as in the meantime, Almas bites and savages you, hungry for flesh.

Yet all of that? Ultimately nothing. He can no more hurt yo as you can hurt it, it seems. Amid this duel, you catch sight of the shimmering distortions going in different directions as...

Go.

I had two swifts unused, also the flux grasp did divine damage because it was vivacious in case that changes Almas Al'aswad's survivability.

Anastasia

It did not, no. Whatever's going on, this diamond body seems almost impossible to harm directly.

Swift action spent on casting quickened True Vulnerability after my first attack on Almas bounced off

Maybe sonic damage? Either way Alicia elects not to stand still and slug it out, pinching space between her flank and the far edge of the cavern to get as far as she can from the sultan's copies and Almas Al'asawad, stepping through and then dropping the spatial compression again.

Free to activate permanent emanation, swift to compress, free to 5 foot step through, free to drop permanent emanation.

Done.

Anastasia

You are not about 435ft from the black hound, as it growls and snaps, chasing you, closing 160ft of that distance, now only 275ft away.

You can't really see the faint disturbances from here, but the dao are fleeing fast and hard as...

It's stopped and I'm taking control, then preparing to face Imix.

Thank you, Alicia.

She can't spare attention for godspeech now, but that suggests the sultan has fled at least. Whether those duplicates will present a lingering problem remains to be seen...

She'll see now if sonic damage does better... With a rapid spell, a group of huge storm elementals appear around the crystal hound, a barrage of thunder and lightning ensuing!

The sonic hits true - dozens of tiny little cracks momentarily form all over the black hound, chinks in its armor. They're already beginning to heal as...

"There's the chink in your armour," Alicia says in satisfaction, flying closer but using an elemental for cover before she shouts at the crystalline construct!

Quickened and maximised shouts. I have an elemental between me and him so he can't charge me.
