Since this is primarily casters seeing to stabilizing the rift and so forth, I'm not going to worry too much about positioning here right now. Jaela, I assume most of the officers are working with others, but are you keeping anyone nearby yourself?

[Yuthirin]

Please note that Intellect Fortress is a valuable tool I can use to keep spellcasters safe. Everything within 20 feet of me can benefit from it if I can see the spell coming. Place me accordingly.

[Corwin]

Not at the moment. Due to the size of the rift and the way we'll be advancing, I will be near the front to intercept anything getting past Ithea. Tryll will be placed in the most beneficial, central spot, as requested. The Astral Island scrolls will be in possession of Kascha and Candy.

[Iron Dragoon]

I can connect all of the officers to my Tapestry, and my lowest range spells for the Tapestry are Medium I believe, so place me accordingly. Also, speak up on what buffs you want from me. I can also load four additional spells into for immediate oshit activation. My current plan is the following:

Load: Favor of the Martyr (Limited Wish), Indomitability, Heroism (Greater), Iron Bones
Precast: True Seeing, Arcane Sight (Greater)
On site: Spellcaster's Bane, Battlemagic Perception, Duelward, Mystic Surge, Mage Armor (Greater), Shield, Enlarge Person (unless stated otherwise), Might of the Planetar, Sakkratar's Triple Strike, Celestial Valor (once engaged).

The above first three will give everyone a bonus on Spellcraft checks (+2insight+5 comp. bonus) to identify any spell, as well as an immediate free/interrupt action to make that check and cast a Dispel on the spell. Unless Dune rules otherwise, both Battlemagic Perception and Duelward do this, so everyone will get two chances to dispel whatever is being cast. Please note that these spells only give you this interrupt once per spell, so be choosey with what you dispel.

After that, since I can't heal, I'll be focusing on throwing out scuplted walls (Solid Fog, Acid Fog, Haboob, Wall of Force, ect) and counterspelling, though I do have some damage spells ready. I've got Naeys' Life Font, Limited Wish and Wish memorized in case we need oshit healing, as well as anything else. I've also got Summon X ready to go if we need some help.

Again, if there's any changes anyone wants or spells added, I need to know ASAP since I'm working and can't really discuss it.

Noted, Jaela and Surraruthru.

Jaela and compay follow Ithea's strike force. The very front of the spherical area here is calm. Celestials patrol about, flying amid open air, walking where earth is and swimming when needed. Fire is extinguished and paths are made. The zone of control extends perhaps half a mile, your forces getting cheers as you go in.

[Corwin]

Jaela opts to fly in after Ithea's forces, counting on Ithea to make improvements to the environment as needed.

[Anastasia]

Okay. Make Spellcraft checks, Surraruthru, Jaela and Tryll/Calleigh. I want baseline ones to see how you're interacting with the magical mess here.

[Corwin]

[21:04] <Rin> roll 1d20+35
[21:04] <Rei-chan> Rin rolled : 1d20+35 --> [ 1d20=11 ]{46}

[Iron Dragoon]

> roll 1d20+34 Spellcraft
<Rei-chan> Iddy rolled : 1d20+34 Spellcraft --> [ 1d20=17 ]{51}

[Yuthirin]

<Rei-chan> LobsterSquid rolled: 1d20+39 --> [ 1d20=7 ] {46}

[Anastasia]

Right now, the magical mess isn't too bad. Limbo is everywhere but it's semi-controlled and safe.  Safe as anything like this is. It's the bleeding edge of the rift, already anchored down sufficiently by the efforts of the celestials.

Meanwhile, Jaela and company can see something ahead. A far away mountain splits before Ithea's army, falling away. A black building of obsidian is within and it comes hurtling at the strike force.

Y'all's call if you do anything or focus on the affected area around you.

[Yuthirin]

"That looks bad!" Calleigh points out.

[Corwin]

"That's what Ithea's here for!" Jaela calls out to her troops. "Trust in her and her team, just as they're trusting in us to fix this damned mess!"

[Anastasia]

As Ithea's force goes forward to deal with the thread, the others turn to the area. It's just past the celestial zone of control, the area around you starting to writhe. Black flames and gusts of bitterly hot wind start to blow from all around the group.

"The chaos is stirring!" Sage Vul'lath's voice carries across the battle field, "We must suppress it!"

Going to give any commands here, Jaela and friends?
