Okay.

The bard song is heard, sweet and clear as Marie wishes. At the same time barrages batter the balors, each one blasted back brutally.  Tangling bursts of energy and power wrap around them as Antenora is right behind her.

'Any problem if I charge in?' Antenora quickly sends.
<Afina> Imagine a tiny pixie boot stamping on a devil's face.
<Afina> Forever.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.
<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Ebiris

'Only what you'll take from exploding balors,' Alicia thinks back.

Anastasia

Antenora's own thoughts, and the more she thinks about it, the more that it's a bad choice unless she has evasion. She doesn't so she'll hold and probably do reactive healing right after this instead as needed.

Balors are up.


A roar of fury is the answer as suddenly dust comes, only to be purified away. The streaks of fire that follow are black as night, but have no fuel, only a blast instead of an inferno.

> roll 1d20+33 balor
<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 42 > [d20=9]

Doesn't even beat SR.


The flames cannot touch you, they sizzle against you to no avail.  After this failure the brace of balors raise their weapons and charge, a furious assault on all of you. Like a tide of hatred and genocide given form, each one a too solid collage of nightmares and horrors that burn in their own torment.

Quick question, what's your reach, Alicia?

Alicia's AC is 90. Marie is elsewhere, her image probably has an AC of like 21 if it's just 10 + dex. They have to roll sense motive against her earlier bluff check 120 or they'll be unable to perceive her illusion as an actual illusion. Probably write it off as miss chance or something?

Anastasia

They can't beat her bluff so no point.

Antenora's AC is not enough nor is Sulia's. Marie is off the hook.

DR applies to all of you, at least, which helps a bit. Negative conditions from the attack negated by immunities.

Chaos.

They fight like madmen, overwhelming swings and savage counters. There's no grace to this combat, only brutal slashes. You find your superlative guard yield to four swords at once, pushing aside your wood blade and slicing into you. Antenora is much the same, parrying from the front as the numbers swarm and hack at her sides.

KILL!

The words of Demogorgon echo in your mind as you are torn. Pain follows as your arm bleeds, your hip is smashed and your leg is sliced. Sulia holds her own as red stains her dress, Marie's image flickering as if somehow out of phase for the assault. Dust wells from them but is stopped instantly, your own defense sufficient to stop this from being worse.

We are not impressed, demon.

Antenora is up. I'll segment this so I don't spent a bunch more on Antenora's combat post, so go ahead and respond.

Alicia's composure slips a bit as the demons actually force her to exert herself, being far stronger than anticipated. "Well, seems we've found something interesting after all," she bites out, forcing on a smile as the melee intensifies.

Suddenly your pain is relieved. Antenora's valor and mercy touches you, as your body heals in kind to her magic.

220 HP healed by divine succorx2.

Fly back and up, we win with distance, not being savaged by dozens of death explosions.

Antenora attempts to escape, flying back up, taking the assault of the balors as she does.

<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 80 > [d20=1]


Yet Antenora glides through them and away, her retreat too fast for them as she falls back to the previous room.

Antenora will drop her standard action on a heal on herself for 150 HP. Sulia is up.

Sulia gracefully retreats as well  - yet the demons surge, the second effort drawing more power than the first. "What is -" Sulia says as she flies up.

<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 58 > [d20=9]


Yet the balors move - you can feel it, smug, mad hate. Like a tempest screaming at you, the one that just blooded Alicia grinning madly. "We feast on divine flesh this night!" he cries in a voice like the blasting of a castle into ruin, a tremendous din, "Hail the Prince of Abysm!"

"HAIL!"

"HAIL!"

The echo is nigh deafening as the demons bellow their triumph, Sulia blocked by blades at all angles.

Leave.

Quickened Holy Word SLA.

118 after SR.


Yet a whip lashes across Sulia's back, an earnest cry of pain and surprise from her. The eyes on the walls and the eyes on the demon's heads all watch, flashing a variety of sickly, pallid colors. Sulia straightens herself as divine power covers her, protects her.

Divine shield, absorbs 200 HP for her.

Init is Alicia (Supreme) > Marie (36) > Balors EVERYWHERE (28) > Antenora (25) > Sulia (24)

Go Alicia.

Since these balors are actually threatening, Alicia treats them with a bit more seriousness and grows, shattering walls and masonry overhead as she swells to titanic proportions!

Swift action to go colossal first of all. I know this room is big enough to have a bunch of large sized balors running around but I don't know if it's big enough to host a colossal creature. Using the rules for enlarge person she'll roll a strength check with her colossal stats to break her surroundings to make room and if the check fails her growth is arrested without harm to her.

"I'll thin the herd, don't worry about the blasts!" Alicia assures Sulia from her new titanic vantage, her grace landing on the other goddess and granting her incredible dodging skills!

Swift to make Sulia my familiar.

Divine Familiar benefits.
Counts as 36 hit dice for any effects that matter with those.
Hit points change to 379 if they're not already higher.
Base attack bonus changes to +36 if it's not already higher.
Base saves (before stats/feats/abilities) change to Fort +18, Ref +9, Will +18 if they're not already higher.
Gains Alicia's base skill ranks for any skills his aren't higher than. That's +39 to acrobatics, craft (landscaping), craft (painting), diplomacy, intimidate, fly, knowledge (arcana), knowledge (history), knowledge (nature), knowledge (religion), knowledge (planes), perception, perform (oratory), profession (general), sense motive, spellcraft, survival, and swim. And +16 to bluff.
Intelligence rises to 23 if it's not already higher.
Gains +18 to natural armour.
Gains improved evasion.
Gains spell resistance 41.
Can cast Limited Wish as a spell-like ability twice per day.


With that reassurance, her sword jabs out, puncturing one balor before she targets another, and another, enduring any blasts they might produce by simply absorbing their life force to sustain herself!

I could probably kill them with a whirlwind attack and then take a ton of simultaneous blasts, so instead I'll full attack so each one I kill gives me enough temp hp to endure its blast! Targeting one balor until it dies then switching to another and so on until I've used all ten attacks.
