Guilding

"It's an endless back and forth. Use fire elementals to revert the ice, and so on. Which is why I prefer to use them as surprise support."

[Anastasia]

"What about if you use them as main troops?" Emily pipes up, "Like frontline warriors, how can you maximize them?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"Ups and downs. They're easily countered. Reliable, though, and they don't break ranks easy."

[Anastasia]

"Mmm-hmm," Jarem agrees, "Frankly, most elementals except powerful ones are a little slow on the uptake. Bank on the reliability, not the creativity."

Emily makes an agreeing noise as...

Perception.

> roll 1d20+40 Emily Perception
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+40 Emily Perception --> [ 1d20=1 ]{41}

"DOWN!" Jarem suddenly barks, grabbing both of you by the arms and plummeting down. Just in time, for seconds later a burst of gleaming fire explodes where the three of you were and...!!!

Init.

Baddie opens.

Before any of you can react, another blast of burning, gleaming fire engulfs the three of you.

Ref saves. Fire immunity gives you a pass.

[Iron Dragoon]

Elemental Body: Fire gives immunity.

> roll 1d20+37 evasion Jarem
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+37 evasion Jarem --> [ 1d20=12 ]{49}
> roll 1d20+34 Alyssa
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+34 Alyssa --> [ 1d20=17 ]{51}

> roll 15d6
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 15d6 --> [ 15d6=52 ]{52}

All made the save, so Jarem takes none and Emily takes 26 before resistance, which knocks it down to 16.

Jarem blocks with his shield as you endure, Emily throwing her arms up and lightly scalded as...

Go.

Alyssa looks around for the source of the attack!

[Anastasia]

About 120ft above you is a strange thing - a mass of tentacles coming from a shining sphere of light, seeming to phase in and out, ghostly.

[Iron Dragoon]

Uh, roll to ID?

[Anastasia]
