A world's support

[Nephrite]

"Save the spells until we get there. We'll aid our comrades with our magic." Moore says -- but there's a song he knows that only affects a certain number of people, so before anything...

Inspire Heroics on everyone, +12 dodge to AC and +12 morale bonus to saves. Moore will deal with the nonlethal damage on the way himself.

He's also going to caste Haste, CL32, on everyone for the +30 movement.

Then let's go!!!!

[Anastasia]

Chaos. The open expanse of air is ahead of you, bright and breezy. Approximately 200ft ahead is a flying galleon, a ship that should be soaring through the air. Instead it is on fire in several places, burning away and stalled out. Two black dragons circle overhead as the deck is taken by a bevy of winged kobolds, while any who resist are set on by several lesser dragons - wyverns, as Barachiel warned you. It is a scene of chaos, a scene of slaughter as the ship's crew is massacred.

[Nephrite]

"Jetina, your first job is to heal everything on that ship, friend or foe -- it doesn't look like they've inflected much damage anyway, but we need to try and save who we can." Moore shouts. "We don't have time to be picky."

Yes, we will indeed join the fight.

[Anastasia]

Init then.

"Hold on, we're coming!" Moore shouts, as his songs spread through the air, empowering his allies and bolstering them!

Inspirational Boost (swift)

Inspire Courage + Inspire Greatness.

Everyone on the field gets +18 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +18 morale bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. If there are any fey in the audience, they get +19.

Moore and the others (it only goes 30 feet, so this can't affect anyone on the boat) gain 41 Temp HP plus con, which is:

Moore: 97
Cresiel: 129
Xandra: 113
Kaja: 105
Jetina: 97

That does it for his move action and his standard for the round. As a reminder, everyone has Haste.

[Anastasia]

Kaja flies forward fearlessly, darting towards the wyrms above. "Scum!" Kaja roars in draconic, dragon eyes turning to him, "In the name of the Father of Dragons, you shall be wiped from this Creation!" He charges right into the fray without fear, all while one of the black dragons turns and goes to engage him, the two meeting as it bellows back, "My hoard will grow from your treasures," he challenges back, a snarling bite following.

Kaja provokes an AoO.

> roll 1d20+58 (+3 ???, +5 ???, +2 ???, +1 ???)
<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 72 > [d20=14]

Bare miss, mobility and haste save the day.

Yet Kaja is a streak across the field, Gem flashing out in a quick, savage slice into the wyrm's flank.

<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 370 > [d6=2,3,5,4,6,5,6,6,1,4]

Yet Kaja darts right into the dragon's mouth as it tries to bite him - and in a shower of skull, blood and gore, erupts out atop its head. The wyrm's body abruptly spasms before plunging down and away, crashing into the endless Air below. As he erupts out, "You're nothing to us, dragons! You may rule your fiefs, but we are agents of the Heavens!"

With the crew mostly massacred, Cresiel sees only a few remain. A few hound archons, a couple of humans, an elf, and a single, bloodied sword archon, one sword arm broken and trickling sizzling hot holy blood to the deck. He advances forward and has his shield up, diving past screeching wyverns, ignoring the bites and claws they send his way.

Doesn't even beat his DR.

Claws, bites, stings - none slow Cresiel as he lands on the boat, the entire ship shaking from his landing. He stands there as winged kobolds scurry away and wyverns dive after him, as he shields the sword archon and a handful of humans. "To me!" he calls.

Using epic shield mate's bonuses here to protect, to be clear.

[Nephrite]

It doesn't look like their sheets are updated for the cloaks we had made for Jetina and Kaja for flying speeds, so I'll just go with what's listed for now.



Jetina moves closer towards the boat at all haste!

double move, for 120 feet to get her closer to the boat.

Xandra, meanwhile, gestures.

I was going to do Sunlance, but I changed my mind.

She's going to cast Sandalphon's Amazing Barrage instead.

[21:36] <Nephrite> roll 1d4+30+18
[21:36] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 52 > [d4=4]

[Anastasia]

They have the items, the speeds just aren't listed. Feel free to use them if that matters.

[Nephrite]

In that case Jetina can get to the boat with ... 90+30 x2 = 240, 40 movement to spare. She'll move after Xandra does her barrage in case it clears up anything for her.

[Anastasia]

Jetina dives in, all attention on Kaja and Cresiel. She lands safely as unerring projectiles follow. Kobolds are struck down mercilessly, winged kobolds falling by the dozens. The wyverns are struck hard, screeching pin pain as the surviving dragon turns. Its look is one of open terror as, "R-retreat!" it gasps out, "Full retreat! RETREAT!"

The surviving dragon vanishes in a word of magic, gone from this place. The wyverns turn and flee, retreating away from the party's assault. Like that the wicked are shattered.

"They gambled on Celestia not responding. They paid the price of blood for it," Xandra observes, as...

Free act. You're welcome to pursue wyverns if you want.

[Nephrite]

Nah, we're good.

Jetina chants a word of magic to do what she can for those here!

Mass Heal, should get everyone on the boat without too much trouble. Those who are dead may still be so, but who knows how many lives it might save.

Moore nods, looking out and around for any signs of a follow-up.

[Anastasia]

Healing spreads as Kaja stay sin the air, watching for attack. The few survivors collapse in relief, thanks and praise offered.

At the same time the sword archon approaches and bows deeply to Cresiel, "Thank you," he says, simply, "You honor us with your arrival, solar."

Cresiel turns to him slowly, "Ah. Please address our leader, Duke Moore." He turns to Moore, as does the sword archon. There's a few long moments of staring in disbelief, "A...fey pixie? A duke?"

[Nephrite]

Moore simply lets out a sigh.

"I'm just not nearly as notable across Creation as I think I am." Moore says with a smile. He turns and nods to the sword archon. "It's a pleasure to meet you. Duke Moore of Hope's Landing of Celestia, servant of Erathaol. I'm sorry for the loss of your crew." Moore says with a pause for solemn quiet.

"Were you carrying anything on board that you think this was for? Or just an attack of opportunity?" He follows up.
