Mechanically, are you trying to use Antenora as cover?

Ebiris · January 21, 2021, 02:17:30 PM

Mechanically I'm trying to make myself an item in Antenora's inventory and thus rely on her saves instead of my own. She's carrying me, so if she evades something I get evaded along for the ride.

Okay.

Antenora zips forward and ahead, a narrow target as again it comes.

> roll 1d20+64 improved evasion
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+64 improved evasion --> [ 1d20=10 ]{74}

> roll 1d20+64 improved evasion
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+64 improved evasion --> [ 1d20=5 ]{69}

She'll pop two of her moments since I copy pasted without thinking.

Somehow Antenora's not there. You're racing onward and ahead as both blasts are missed, Antenora diving lower as they miss. Just in time for it appears. Another of the false celestial, thins one with a massive blade held in both hands. He screams in fury as he flies up to intercept, even as you glimpse more purple in the distance.

Behind you remnants of purple linger and they gather together, beginning to form some sort of body.

Init. Only Antenora rolls so she goes last, she rolls in case it's relevant later.

> roll 1d20+14 Antenora
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 Antenora --> [ 1d20=16 ]{30}

Init is False Celestial (Supreme) > Alicia (Supreme) > Antenora (30) > Purple Mass (???)

You shall be rended down to bone, and your bones cast into the eternity of oblivion!

Like a meteorite Antenora and the false celestial clash, blade coming to strike true. It is black as dried blood and emits no shine at all.

> roll 1d20+143
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+143 --> [ 1d20=19 ]{162}
> roll 1d20+143 crit?
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+143 crit? --> [ 1d20=12 ]{155}
> roll 10d8+200+2d6+2d6+4d6+4d6+23d6
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 10d8+200+2d6+2d6+4d6+4d6+23d6 --> [ 10d8=50 2d6=7 2d6=6 4d6=13 4d6=17 23d6=75 ]{368}

Beats her DR.

Antenora is impaled through the stomach, a bloody gasp as the two meet. Metal tears away as armor yields, the last foot of the blade erupting out from Antenora's back.

Go.

This'll be far enough for now. Hopping off of Antenora and swelling back up to colossal proportions, Alicia brings her blade to play on their host. "Don't come back for a third round!" she snaps as he's chopped apart into many little pieces.

Free to let go of Anty, swift to change size, full attack and swift to recast quickened many moments of prescience after attack #4.

The false celestial is torn apart - gone again.

The Gemstone of Truth is suddenly warm on your chest.

You whirl in reaction. The false celestial is there, blade coming for your neck and sized to match you. Yet you are able to parry and stop it, the blow averted. A split second later and that is gone entirely. Another lie?

Meanwhile Antenora swiftly heals her wounds as...

Do we stay or move?

She just spent two holy fury to heal 220.

Keep on towards where the purple masses, it's our best shot for now.

Anastasia · January 22, 2021, 12:44:48 PM

Antenora soars ahead as far in the distance, the purple gathers once more. It's growing more intense by the moment.

Go.

Ebiris · January 22, 2021, 12:51:04 PM

Alicia shrinks down again, twisting space to bring herself closer to Antenora and grabbing on. "Just until we get close enough to do something about that."

She'll even twist space more ahead of Antenora so she can skip ahead further once she gets going.

Back to fine size and hanging onto Anty now.

As you fly your wounds mend in part, restoring you.

110 HP from Antenora for you, and 110 HP for her.

Both of you flee. Both of you flee like a shot, but it's coming. Twin blasts, one after another as Antenora dodges and dives, desperately trying to avoid it all.

Is it fleeing if we're moving towards the enemy?

Spoiler: Show

Anastasia · January 22, 2021, 01:47:13 PM

A fair point.

Closer. Closer. You can see it closer even as you both endure. Antenora is bloodied all over, blasted but still going.

A portal? A single purple portal is ahead. Antenora swoops to avoid it, but another appears. Another. Another. Another. In moments you're surrounded by hundreds of portals. Each one has a set of golden eyes that peer out.

YOU DID NOT ESCAPE. YOU HAVE ALREADY DIED. I WILL ESCORT YOU TO OBLIVION.

The portals surround you on every side, ranging in size from a fist to large enough for several Hannas to pass through at the same time. Antenora has to pause in the air, gaze going about as you're surrounded.

Ebiris · January 22, 2021, 01:52:15 PM

Are they actual portals to another plane or just a cosmetic effect for whatever magic or fuckery is going on here?

Anastasia · January 22, 2021, 01:56:04 PM

They seem to be actual portals, but wrong somehow. You can tell they only connect to themselves.
