This is an awkward spot for a few reasons, so go ahead and sketch out what you'll do on your turn and I'll adjudicate/roll init as needed.

Alicia doesn't give that avatar a chance to do anything, a mental effort twisting space to connect the area next to her with what's behind the avatar. A quick shout will be all the warning the avatar gets as her magical defences are stripped away before Alicia's blades fall on her.

Quickened superb dispelling and full attack, how many dispels first?

> roll 1d20+12
<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 16 > [d20=4]

She's rolling remarkably poorly. Also that's only 4 since avatar.


Talona's avatar moves with inhuman speed, even as much of the magic around it crumbles. It sidesteps your first blow, yet the second and third slash across her side. The fourth bloods her again, across the shoulder. She manages to leap back, wounds leaking black, coagulated blood. "Fast!" she utters, face a loathsome visage, nothing but ruin and death.

Anything else for your turn?

Ebiris

Oh! Spell power also added to the vampiric touch damage so +7 damage on each of those. I take it 99s and above hit so four of them for +28 damage? Doubt that kills her but it's more temp hp for me.

Alicia merely tuts. It wasn't fast enough. She should've fought harder but she underestimated an avatar and wanted to save some surprises for the real Talona.

A desultory throw of her sword sends it scything through the air to hopefully blood Talona one more time, or even put her down if she's lucky.

Quickened whirling blade with my last swift.

+7 more damage from the vampiric touch I forgot to add on the roll itself.

Correct on all counts there in the first bit.

Another rip, sudden and savage. The whirling blade goes through Talona's side, more dead blood spilled as she says in a low growl, "You arrogant bitch!"

A shadowed blur. Jessica is with you, a sudden strike that seeks to impale Talona through the throat. But the avatar jukes to the side at the last moment, the attack avoided by inches.

A moment later she leaps back as...

What's your current reach? Matters.

Not that it matters (unless the extra hp damage also wasn't counted and would be enough to kill her). SR is 51.

Typo, yes. Either way it gets by yours and also gets by Jessica's. Fort save, both of you.
