Before your eyes, the fire and ice separate, exploding violently around you. The magic collapses ice and fire joined by green, the explosion terrible but fading away, mere fire and ice no threat to you as it crumbles.

"Heal yourselves if needed," Alicia suggests. "But don't spare any for me, I'm fine." The false vitality she absorbed from that nycaloth earlier still standing her in good stead. Trusting Syala and Latha to know what healing they need best, she leads the way down to the bottom of the chasm.

Spoiler: Show

Anastasia · October 16, 2018, 01:35:55 PM

"We're fine," Latha declares, as you reach the bottom. Around you is a pillared bottom, the chasm's edges supported with pillars. Beyond it is a shadowy area, sprawling out but not very far, walls ahead.

There's a door to the northeast.

There's a door to the south.

There's a cleft in the western wall, caught by your sharp eyes.

Stepping out from behind a pillar is a woman. She wears full armor save for a helmet, a shimmering green light around her head. It is well kept and decorated with inlays of skulls. She carries two longswords, one in each hand. Her gaze is severe, head shaved bald and scarred. Her eyes are red and she has a decided whiff of brimstone to her, a long and narrow red spade tail poking out of a fitted hole in the rear of her armor.

'I challenge one of you to a one on one duel.'

She speaks plainly in your mind. A quiet voice, almost unremarkable save for how it is delivered.

K:P check here too.

[17:39] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+46 planes
[17:39] <Kobot> Ebiris rolled 1d20+46 planes --> [ 1d20=5 ]{51}

Also spells active on her?

Anastasia · October 16, 2018, 01:47:26 PM

Xela, a warrior and planar champion. A sometimes participant in the Blood War as a mercenary, a wanderer who keeps to herself. Powerful enough and seemingly unclaimed that everyone assumed that the yugoloths or a similar discreet sort has her soul or loyalty (or both). A tiefling with 'thick blood', more fiend than mortal. She participates and is competent but does not excel, one of countless many participating in the endless battles of demons vs devils.

She's generally smart and canny, knowing when to fight, when to barter and when to retreat. She's more than capable of defeating something like a balor or a pit fiend one on one, though details of her true skill are somewhat inconsistent. The fact that she's been active for about 400 years now suggests she's fiend enough not be mortal. Ultimately a rather minor player in the affairs of the planes, mostly known to you through the prayers of Kaluth Scribeson, a rather well read attendant of your roadside shrines who prays and meditates about what lore he reads or hears.

Ebiris · October 16, 2018, 02:00:05 PM

And spells on her?

"Under what terms?" Alicia asks, starting her down. Because duels are respectable to her as part of her divine portfolio after all!

Anastasia · October 16, 2018, 02:13:50 PM

She has the following: False Life, Cursed Recitation, Blademaiden's Kiss, Dark Champion, Superior Resistance, Nondetection (You couldn't fail the CL check so skipped it) and Vampiric Assault.

Latha's light - does not burn her, oddly enough. She stands amid it, unbowed. "To the death," she says shortly, "One on one, no interference by others."

Syala smiles a little bit, "You'll forgive us if we don't trust the daemons here to hold to that, even if we trust you."

Latha shakes her head, "If they interfere, I will see it is the last mistake they make."

Ebiris · October 16, 2018, 02:17:27 PM

"And what prize for the winner?" Alicia asks. "Do you fight as this hole's champion? Will all forces surrender when you fall? Or is this mere vanity?"

What do Cursed Recitation, Blademaiden's Kiss, and Dark Champion do?

Anastasia · October 16, 2018, 02:38:49 PM

Cursed Recitation is Recitation, except with a stronger effect in exchange for damage if you openly disobey what you serve.

Blademaiden's Kiss makes her better at fighting with two weapons.

Dark Champion infuses her with unholy power, making her better in all aspects.

"I challenge you to see if you are a craven coward or if you will face me." She meets your gaze, and if there's the faintest quiver there, the faintest sign of fear, who is to say? "I challenge you. Do you accept or do you prove your cowardice?"

Ebiris · October 16, 2018, 02:51:51 PM

"Pathetic, you insult me not with your words but with your failure to offer even a credible duel. Your words are no better than those a tavern braggart. I'll slay you myself but know it was not a duel, and there was no meaning in it," Alicia says scornfully, levelling her blade at the loudmouthed upstart.

Anastasia · October 16, 2018, 03:01:19 PM

She stands 30ft away from you, blades held steady. "Then come," she invites, already moving at you and...!!!

Init, aka go.

Ebiris · October 16, 2018, 03:22:27 PM

Abruptly, Alicia looms over Xela, the distance between them seemingly nothing in the face of her titanic reach as her blades sweep out to rend her asunder!

Swift to go colossal, size increase plus reach should put her handily in melee range.

The warrioress brings her blades up, a cross parry - that your oversized blade cuts through, the same as it cuts through the stone of the roof you clip. They shatter as you slice through her armor, flesh, body, blood, body, flesh and finally armor again. She is cut roughly in half, your powerful combust spell exploding through her, detonating her body a split second later.

"Suicide by the divine," Syala shakes her head, "What offer did she get that she wasn't willing to abandon that mad challenge? Idiocy."

Free act.

Ebiris · October 16, 2018, 03:58:15 PM

Alicia shrinks back down and shakes her head. "She had a spell on her that would have caused pain if she disobeyed what she serves, but no more than a geas might have, and she wasn't under any compulsion. I may have been merciful if she had or she'd shown hesitation in her willingness to fight. We'll speak of her no more, she died a fool." She looks around and then gestures to the cleft as best leading towards the direction she sensed telepathy from earlier. "This way."
