19:32 <Skaya> "It's very comfortable," Skaya agrees, glancing at her sideways.
19:33 <Kotono> Rina picks up another stone and tosses it, "Isn't it? I wonder if Regis is in one of these planes?" Then with a shake of her head, "Forget that, I didn't come here to talk about that."
19:35 <Skaya> "He absolutely must be, and having the time of his life," Skaya assures her.
19:37 <Kotono> "Is everything alright with us, though?" Rina asks outright after a moment, as she picks up a third rock. She doesn't toss this one, looking out ahead, "I get the feeling you're upset with me lately."
19:39 <Skaya> "I'm not."
19:40 <Kotono> With a heavy sigh of pure relief, "Good. I wasn't sure if I was seeing nothing or not."
19:42 <Skaya> "Why did you think I was?"
19:44 <Kotono> "I don't know. I got that feeling from you," Rina smiles a little, "Just that I was coming up short. The way you reacted to a few things. I sorry, I must have been making something out of nothing."
19:45 <Skaya> Oh, she noticed Skaya's dissatisfaction with her utility in combat! But that's not something she hates Rina over, indeed. "You're probably excited to return and fight underwater."
19:48 <Kotono> With a weak laugh, "Yeah, more underwater fighting. Maybe next time we'll fight in a desert. A dry, hot desert. With extra fire. Everything on fire."
19:49 <Skaya> "You know, Rina. Our clothes are not fire proof."
19:51 <Kotono> With a sideeye and a little, mischevious smile, "Do you think you or Liza would mind that much?"
19:52 <Skaya> "It would be very inconvenient and sand will get anywhere," Skaya tells her sternly. "It might sound fun but it's really not!"
19:55 <Kotono> That smile turns into a laugh, "Sand gets everywhere." Rina agrees, "Laremy's landlocked, but there's still sand on some riverbanks. It gets everywhere, and I mean everywhere. I thought it was going to be a good time, but it really wasn't."
19:57 <Skaya> "That said! Maybe I can learn to control the air around me as a sort of invisible shell? Protection from Sand!"
20:04 <Kotono> "A worthwhile spell," Rina agrees right away, "I'll pay you if you can figure that out."
20:04 <Skaya> "Deal!"
20:07 <Kotono> Rina smiles wider at that, "Then I'll hold yo uto that. Make that and you can-pffffft!" The lake erupts, a wave of water coming and splashing Rina top to bottom. Skaya gets some splash from it, but she clearly wasn't the target. Rina stands there, dripping wet and mortified. "What? Who? How?"
20:07 <Kotono> Emerging from the water is Sanda, wearing her underclothes and with a happy look, "Sorry Rina," she says like nothing's wrong in the world, "That was an amazing swim. I think I'll do it again before sunset."
20:07 <Skaya> "You gained a secret admirer?" Skaya wonders out loud, taking out a handkerchief to wipe her face.
20:08 <Skaya> "Not so secret, now!" she amends as Sanda emerges.
20:09 <Kotono> Rina gives Sanda a look that can only be called impending mayhem. "Sandaaaaaa," she growls.
20:09 <Kotono> Sanda takes one look at that, "Statistically speaking, it's better to swim now rather than sunset." she decides, hopping right back into the lake before Rina can do anything.
20:10 <Skaya> "Well, if it's statistically relevant..." Skaya trails off, before jumping in after her.
20:24 <Kotono> Rina watches and shakes her head, a fond smile as swimming is hard. A day's respite, nothing but peace and a chance to prepare before more comes your way. From there...OOC: More.

19:32 <Kotono> A respite, away from trench-chilled waters and the steady pressure of it all. Devar ends up sitting inside in a fine, open air parlor. Open windows keep the breeze going, the sounds of nature outside steady and never intrusive. "Hm?" Liza's voice  as she enters the room, "You seem well here. Have you been to a heavenly plane before this?"
19:34 <Devar> "Oh, yes, though it was by accident. It was when you went on your own adventure with Skaya, if I'm not mistaken - Anne and I ended up in Bytopia for a brief period." Devar explains. "We were, ah... there was someone there who I think took some amusement in spending time with us."
19:39 <Kotono> "You know," Liza lingers in the room, then takes a seat. She closes her eyes, prim and proper, "At least with fiends, you know what they want, more or less. You can reject them out of hand no matter how sweet what they offer you is. Angels and celestials? They're harder, because they want what's best for you, but what they think is best."
19:43 <Devar> "That's always the trouble, isn't it?" Devar agrees. "Anne's question the other day - about doing what's right when faced with a question of lawfulness versus goodness, it's... tough. I think I land on the side of always striving the uphold the spirit of a law... did Skaya ever tell you about our time in Dareslan with the plague?" He asks. "It was horrible - so many sick people... and I was
19:43 <Devar> lucky, I wasn't harmed by the disease so I could go anywhere, but if I had been told by any of their rulers, their lawmakers, to cull the sick? I wouldn't have done it. I'm here on this plane - in this world, Ihope - to bring happiness and good things to those who can't protect themselves otherwise. I hope to make other people better by existing, not..." He sighs. "It becomes preachy if people
19:43 <Devar> aren't looking for your suggestions, you know?"
19:45 <Kotono> "No, not much," Liza listens, "No wonder you're here. You sound like a celestial in training. Make the world around you better, protect those who can't protect themselves."
19:47 <Devar> "I'd like to think I'm a little less a stick in the mud as I hear they can be." Devar says with a bit of a laugh. "I've read up a bit on Anne's patron - it's interesting because he seems to have a connection to Celestia, but I don't think he follows lawfulness to the letter. Maybe even angels can have some wiggle room?" He turns to Liza, "Speaking of, do you follow anyone? It's fine if not,
19:47 <Devar> I'm not trying to convert you or anything."
19:49 <Kotono> "I do, but I prefer not to talk of it," Liza says, "It's easier that way, especially on board where there's so much variety." She basks in the sunshine and rests, "I've heard of Moore's before, and Anne's an interesting example. Not a standard one."
19:52 <Devar> "If you don't mind my asking, is it one you think some of us might object to?" Devar asks. "Again, I'm not going to start suspecting you or anything - we're all in whatever you want to call this together. If you don't want to say I won't ask and won't pressure you to." He says. "You've been a stalwart companion to the rest of us - you clearly have a knack for variety, like Skaya does."
19:54 <Kotono> "Nothing like that," Liza shakes her head, then smiles. She has a nice smile, if nothing else. "Don't read into it like that. I'm not a plague bower, a murder lover or a 'loth kisser. Humans." A little, playful scoff, "No, I really don't want to talk about it, that's all. There's nothing nefarious hidden."
19:58 <Devar> "I promise, I wasn't jumping to that sort of conclusion." Devar says. "Faiths for some are private affairs, only between themselves and whomever else is listening. I get that." Devar says. "And hey, I'm not a human." He says with a bright smile. "I technically wasn't before the whole elemental debacle either, but I digress. How did you wind up joining the ship, anyway? If that's something you
19:58 <Devar> feel like talking about?"
20:04 <Kotono> "It's not as ecret," Liza admits, "I stumbled on it seeking treasure, and why not hop on board a big opportunity? I haven't regretted it, and it's kept me busy."
20:05 <Devar> "It's definitely something I wonder if Skaya and Sanda will eventually commit to fully." Devar says. "After our current... whatever you want to call it. I have no idea why Auril seems to have it out for our plane right now."
20:06 <Devar> "Not like she needs an excuse." He adds.
20:08 <Kotono> "Not that she does," LIza shivers even in the warmth, "Winter chills so deeply."
20:09 <Devar> "Rina's going to have an extra hard time with it this year." Devar agrees. "But thankfully, we've prepared about as much as we can, though I think we'll be busy making food and water for the populace as it starts to get colder."
20:23 <Kotono> Meanwhile, Liza lays back and rests in the sunshine, on one of the lounging chairs here. "Then best to be warm now, at least for all of you."
20:27 <Devar> "Don't worry, you're always welcome to pal around with us if you want to." Devar says. "Though I imagine it's more Skaya than the rest of us." He says with a smile.
20:27 <Kotono> With that, the day passes. The next day dawns as nice as the last, and the question is posed: Now what? Returning back?
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

20:40 <Kotono> roll 5#1d100
20:40 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 5#1d100 --> [ 1d100=61 ]{61}, [ 1d100=22 ]{22}, [ 1d100=76 ]{76}, [ 1d100=19 ]{19}, [ 1d100=95 ]{95}
20:40 <Kotono> roll 1d8
20:40 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d8 --> [ 1d8=4 ]{4}
20:42 <Kotono> Thunk! The party appears sunshine. Late summer sunshine, the sort that's losing its worst heat. As you look around, you see you're in some sort of rustic, hilly village. A town square if you had to guess, or what passes for one here. More of pastureland if you want to be honest, cows about. "Woah!" A man's voice, "Lookie that, they appeared out of nowhere!"
20:43 <Skaya> "Wow!" Skaya exclaims. "I was aiming underwater in the middle of nowhere!"
20:44 <Devar> "The perils of magic items." Devar says with a bit of a chuckle. "One of these days we'll end up back home instead." He decides to leave out where 'home' is just in case they're in Eis or something...
20:44 <Skaya> "Where are we, actually?"
20:45 <Kotono> As the party looks about, Anne confused while Sanda nods to herself? A man in a straw hat comes up, in dirty peasant clothes. A young adult woman, no more than twenty at most, follows, in a similar, dirty dress. "You're in Orenlan Village," The man comes up, "You're fancy heroes and travelers." He looks wide eyes, sticking his hand out, "Can I shake one of your hands?"
20:46 <Kotono> "Me too, pa!" The girl, with dirty brown hair, also follows. "Lemme shake the magic heroes hands too!"
20:46 <Skaya> "Hi!" Skaya greets them, offering a hand to father and daughter each. "Which nation is this?"
20:47 <Kotono> The hand is taken, a firm grip. "You're in-!" OOC: Do you have any natural armor?
20:48 <Skaya> OOC: Actually yes
20:49 <Kotono> roll 1d20+12 then vs your flatfooted AC unless uncanny dodge, then just normal AC
20:49 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+12 then vs your flatfooted AC unless uncanny dodge, then just normal AC --> [ 1d20=16 ]{28}

20:54 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d8+6 chomp Skaya and fort --> [ 1d8=5 ]{11}
20:55 <Kotono> OOC: Bonuses agains tpoison apply.
20:55 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13+7
20:55 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13+7 --> [ 1d20=20 ]{40}
20:56 <Kotono> Agony. Skaya's wrist is bitten deep, the man's hand becoming a maw. His entire form wavers like fluid, goopy water. The daughter laughs, "Food! Food appearing just like this," she cheers, mouth splitting open far too wide as she rushes on. "What in-" Sanda begins, but battle in on you. OOC: Init.
20:57 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13
20:57 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=6 ]{19}
20:57 <Kotono> "Cursed! Impure things!" Anne draws her mace, "Those who prey on the innocent will be stopped!"
20:57 <Devar> roll 1d20+3 alas magic rings don't give you supreme initiative
20:57 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+3 alas magic rings don't give you supreme initiative --> [ 1d20=14 ]{17}
20:57 <Kotono> roll 1d20 Sanda is not good at this
20:57 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20 Sanda is not good at this --> [ 1d20=14 ]{14}
20:57 <Kotono> OOC: Also, who has the ring on, speaking of?
20:57 <Skaya> OOC: Which ring?
20:58 <Devar> OOC: Devar would be wearing it
20:58 <Kotono> roll 1d20+5 Anne Sounds good, Devar. The axiomatic ring, Cor.
20:58 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+5 Anne Sounds good, Devar. The axiomatic ring, Cor. --> [ 1d20=9 ]{14}
20:58 <Kotono> roll 1d20+14 Rina

20:58 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+3 woman --> [ 1d20=14 ]{17}
20:58 <Kotono> roll 1d20+2 ???
20:59 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+2 ??? --> [ 1d20=4 ]{6}
20:59 <Kotono> roll 1d20+2 ???
20:59 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+2 ??? --> [ 1d20=3 ]{5}
20:59 <Kotono> roll 1d20+2 ???

20:59 <Kotono> Init is Rina (31) > Devar = Woman (17) > Sanda (14) > Liza (7) > ???1 = ???3 (6) > ???2 (5) > Man (4)
21:00 <Kotono> Rina's quick. Sword out she's at Skaya's side, a quick and sharp stab into the creature's side. "Let go!"
21:00 <Kotono> roll 1d20+18
21:00 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 --> [ 1d20=17 ]{35}
21:00 <Kotono> roll 1d6+3+1d6+3d6
21:00 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d6+3+1d6+3d6 --> [ 1d6=3 1d6=3 3d6=9 ]{18}
21:01 <Kotono> One stab into the man's side has strange goop leak out rather than blood, the creature letting out a too high pitched noise. OOC: Devar and woman, go.
21:01 <Kotono> "What?" Liza looks still off balance, but begins to rally.
21:01 <Skaya> OOC: Actually, it's my go
21:02 <Skaya> "What the hell is wrong with you?!" Skaya screams, punching the cannibal fiercely.
21:02 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13+7 haste, inspiration
21:02 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13+7 haste, inspiration --> [ 1d20=16 ]{36}
21:02 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13+7 haste, inspiration
21:02 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13+7 haste, inspiration --> [ 1d20=19 ]{39}
21:02 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13+7 haste, inspiration
21:02 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13+7 haste, inspiration --> [ 1d20=18 ]{38}
21:03 <Skaya> roll 1d20+8+7 haste
21:03 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+8+7 haste --> [ 1d20=17 ]{32}
21:03 <Skaya> roll 3d6+5+1d8 #1
21:03 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+5+1d8 #1 --> [ 3d6=9 1d8=1 ]{15}
21:03 <Skaya> roll 3d6+5+1d8 #2
21:03 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+5+1d8 #2 --> [ 3d6=10 1d8=6 ]{21}

21:03 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+5+1d8 #4 --> [ 3d6=13 1d8=5 ]{23}
21:04 <Kotono> Init is Rina (31) > Skaya (19) > Devar = Woman (17) > Sanda (14) > Liza (7) > ???1 = ???3 (6) > ???2 (5) > Man (4)
21:04 <Kotono> Init is Rina (31) > Skaya (19) > Devar = Woman (17) > Sanda (14) > Liza (7) > ???1 = ???3 (6) > ???2 (5)
21:05 <Kotono> The creature is struck again and again. He cries and falls back, bleeding out the same goop before collapsing into a puddle of that, teeth and bones. "PA!" The woman screams as she lunges at Skaya, as Devar...OOC: Go.
21:05 <Kotono> roll 1d20+13 (+2 charge) trying to chomp chomp Skaya
21:05 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+13 (+2 charge) trying to chomp chomp Skaya --> [ 1d20=13 ]{26}
21:05 <Skaya> OOC: Current AC is 32
21:07 <Kotono> The creature's mouth is too large as she tries to leap on and chomp Skaya, but Skaya sidesteps. She misses completely as Devar...OOC: Devar, you're still up.
21:07 <Devar> "This is what you deserve for your deeds!" Devar shouts, quickly casting a defensive spell for Skaya's benefit before moving to engage the clearly not human woman! OOC: Skaya's getting Luminous Armor back.
21:08 <Devar> roll 1d20+13+2
21:08 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+13+2 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{28}
21:08 <Devar> roll 1d8+7
21:08 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d8+7 --> [ 1d8=6 ]{13}
21:08 <Devar> "I don't know what kind of creatures you are, but you lost any chance at empathy or understanding when you attacked us!" Devar calls out.
21:10 <Kotono> Armor surrounds Skaya as Devar leaps in and slashes. He opens up a wound along the woman's front. Still no blood, only the same goo. She lets out an incoherent noise, tongue too long and thrashing out. Sanda's then there to pin her in between all of you, staff coming down, "We're not food, eat the cows instead!"
21:10 <Kotono> roll 1d20+18 wham
21:10 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 wham --> [ 1d20=14 ]{32}
21:11 <Kotono> roll 1d12+8
21:11 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d12+8 --> [ 1d12=10 ]{18}
21:12 <Kotono> Init is Rina (31) > Skaya (19) > Devar = Woman (17) > Sanda = Anne (14) > Liza (7) > ???1 = ???3 (6) > ???2 (5)
21:12 <Kotono> A solid thunk to the woman's back leaves her trying to stay up, a pained wail in a tone that's not right. Not human, too loud. At the same time Anne turns rushes to Skaya, "Healing?" A single word, a brisk question.
21:13 <Skaya> "Sure. Need my hand in good order."
21:18 <Kotono> roll 2d8+8
21:18 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 2d8+8 --> [ 2d8=10 ]{18}
21:19 <Kotono> Healing comes, soothing warmth that knits together ruind flesh. At the same time Liza hangs back, the woman surrounded. OOC: She doesn't want to waste resources when the enemy's surorunded like this. More.
21:19 <Kotono> A horrible, moo-like sound. Three of the cows are charging the party's way. Their mouths open too wide, just like the other two's. "The cows!" Liza shouts, "They're monsters too!"
21:19 <Kotono> "Why!?" Rina yelps, voice horrified.
21:20 <Kotono> "This must be the work of one of our patrons, so we can stop this evil," Anne declares, "What else could it be?"
21:21 <Skaya> "Kill everything with a large mouth here!"
21:25 <Kotono> Liza takes a breath and moves to intercept...next time! OOC: This is a good pause point mid fight, since we're not going to finish the fight even running a decent bit over, most likely. So we'll pause just a few early and I'll run a few extra Thursday.
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

19:02 <Kotono> Liza moves to block them, gesturing as she does. It covers your back as missiles fly, slamming into the lead cow.
19:02 <Kotono> roll 4d4+4
19:02 <Kotono> OOC: One second to restore lazybot.

19:04 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 4d4+4 --> [ 4d4=8 ]{12}
19:04 <Kotono> The missiles fly but don't stop the cows. They hit them, and now there's a target in their way - Liza. Two of them barrel into her, as the last blows past and goes for Sanda.
19:04 <Kotono> roll 1d20+10 (+2 charge) cow
19:04 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 (+2 charge) cow --> [ 1d20=11 ]{21}

19:08 <•Kotono> Liza manages to dodge around them, drawing them away as she hops away. Sadna isn't so fast, getting head butted in the back and knocked to a knee. She struggles to get up as...OOC: Rina.
19:08 <•Kotono> "Why the cows?!" Rina protests, but turns to the woman and dashes by, sword lashing out.
19:08 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+18
19:08 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 --> [ 1d20=15 ]{33}

19:09 <Devar> "You hear stories about mimics, but this seems a little ridiculous!" Devar calls out.
19:10 <•Kotono> Rina dashes by, a slash. A moment later the woman falls over, goo leaking from her torn open back. She twitches and lies still, another one down. That leaves Skaya to...OOC: Go.
19:10 <Skaya> Now that the situation seems more stable and her own wound had been healed, Skaya mentally takes a step back. Rather than an all-out assault, she suddenly wishes to see whether the Feybone Arcana can be used on land! There's moisture in the air, it's not like they're in Rina's fantasy fire desert. So would it work...?
19:11 <Skaya> OOC: If so, I'll position to target the two cows attacking Liza
19:12 <•Kotono> OOC: Go for it.
19:14 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
19:14 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=4 ]{18}
19:14 <Skaya> roll 6d6
19:14 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=19 ]{19}
19:16 <•Kotono> The two cows are blasted hard, letting out sounds that are distinctly not moos as they're sent flying back. They land bad, blasted good as...OOC: Devar.
19:16 <Skaya> "Deal with that demon cow next to Sanda first!"
19:16 <•Kotono> "Please!" Sanda yelps, scrambling back.
19:17 <Devar> Devar will bolster his defenses just in case with Luminous Armor before he moves in to take a swing at whatever aberration they're dealing with in the form of a cow!  OOC: Swift for Luminous Armor, then attacking
19:17 <Devar> roll 1d20+15 die monster
19:17 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15 die monster --> [ 1d20=8 ]{23}
19:17 <Devar> roll 1d8+7
19:17 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d8+7 --> [ 1d8=4 ]{11}
19:18 <•Kotono> A solid slash, tearing the cow open. Ooze again, still not blood, as...OOC: Sanda and Anne.
19:18 <•Kotono> Sanda manages to recover and swings hard, staff burstinginto crackling electricity.
19:18 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+18 s hocking grasp channeled
19:18 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 s hocking grasp channeled --> [ 1d20=7 ]{25}
19:18 <•Kotono> roll 1d12+8+5d6
19:18 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d12+8+5d6 --> [ 1d12=1 5d6=18 ]{27}
19:19 <•Kotono> WHAM! A stick to the head knocks the cow loopy, its opened maw smoking as electricity fries it. At the same time Anne rushes forward, swinging valiantly at that cow, "Stay down, monster!"
19:19 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+14
19:19 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{27}
19:19 <•Kotono> roll 1d8+5
19:19 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d8+5 --> [ 1d8=1 ]{6}
19:20 <•Kotono> Another blow rocks the cow further, smacking it solidly in the side. Not a decisive blow, but it buys Liza time to scramble back. She simply gets well behind everyone and out of melee, withdrawing safely from being cow food. OOC: LIza posistions to get safely in the back and provide support next round. Evil cows are up.
19:21 <•Kotono> The two cows blasted by Skaya recover, getting back to their feet. Meanwhile Sanda gets another chomp, the cow on her furiously not-mooing as its maw opens wide.
19:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+8 Sanda chomp
19:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+8 Sanda chomp --> [ 1d20=19 ]{27}
19:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+8 Sanda chomp crit?
19:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+8 Sanda chomp crit? --> [ 1d20=15 ]{23}
19:21 <•Kotono> roll 8d6+24
19:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 8d6+24 --> [ 8d6=26 ]{50}
19:22 •Kotono set the topic: Skaya: 100/100 (+6AC/+4 vs melee, GMW+2, Sanda's bracers of +4CON) Devar 113/113 Anne 72/83 Sanda 16/60 Rina 82/85
19:24 <•Kotono> It happens so fast. The cow darts in just the right direction. Its maw opens wide, going for Sanda's arm. Blood. So much blood. The beast swallows as Sanda screams, most of her arm beneath the shoulder gone. So much blood as she screams in agony, falling back and staff dropped. "Bastard!" Anne snarls, then...OOC: Poor Sanda. Rina.
19:24 <•Kotono> "Sanda!" Rina's there in an instant, gliding past with an expression locked in anger. Her sword comes down, right for its flank.
19:24 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+18
19:24 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 --> [ 1d20=18 ]{36}
19:24 <•Kotono> roll 1d6+3+1d6+3d6
19:24 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d6+3+1d6+3d6 --> [ 1d6=1 1d6=3 3d6=7 ]{14}
19:25 <•Kotono> Already wounded, the cow gets impaled through the side. It lets out one more horrid sound and collapses, one of them down. Just in time for...OOC: Skaya.
19:25 <•Kotono> Init is Rina (31) > Skaya (19) > Devar (17) > Sanda = Anne (14) > Liza (7) > ???1 = ???3 (6)
19:26 — Skaya throws a worried look back, but then decisively steps forward to block any direct paths from the other cows and Sanda before brandishing the Feybone again.
19:26 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
19:26 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=3 ]{17}
19:27 <Skaya> roll 6d6 if hit
19:27 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 if hit --> [ 6d6=24 ]{24}
19:27 <•Kotono> The cows are again slammed back, water flaying them hard. They go down again, struggling to rise thanks to Skaya's assault. They're weakening, both badly battered by now. OOC: Devar, go.
19:30 <Devar> Devar will fly after them, trying to at least intercept them from getting to Sanda in her injured state! OOC: I'm assuming I can fly the 90ft needed to get there
19:30 <Devar> roll 1d20+15 die monster again
19:30 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15 die monster again --> [ 1d20=6 ]{21}
19:30 <Devar> roll 1d8+7
19:30 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d8+7 --> [ 1d8=8 ]{15}
19:30 <•Kotono> OOC: You can, yes.
19:30 <Devar> OOC: Just hitting Cow #1, or whichever is closest
19:30 <•Kotono> Init is Rina (31) > Skaya (19) > Devar (17) > Sanda = Anne (14) > Liza (7) > ???1 (6)
19:31 <•Kotono> Devar swoops in, slashing. Already wounded, this cow puts up little resistance to Devar's sword to its head. That solves one problem, only one left. As Sanda screams, incoherent in agony, Anne kneels next to her. "Please," She holds her holy symbol, chanting over her.
19:31 <•Kotono> roll 4d8+8 because this is absolutely a CCW situation
19:31 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 4d8+8 because this is absolutely a CCW situation --> [ 4d8=25 ]{33}
19:31 •Kotono set the topic: Skaya: 100/100 (+6AC/+4 vs melee, GMW+2, Sanda's bracers of +4CON) Devar 113/113 Anne 72/83 Sanda 49/60 Rina 82/85
19:33 <•Kotono> What's left of Sanda's arm stops bleeding, her color returning. She lies there, crying silently and trying to recover, her remaining arm clinging to her staff tight.  OOC: Sanda's in no shape to do battlea nd no need to right this second. Liza.
19:34 <•Kotono> "Stay back, fight at range!" Liza warns, staying well back. She withdraws a longbow and braces, then takes aim.
19:34 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+13
19:34 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=4 ]{17}
19:34 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+8
19:34 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+8 --> [ 1d20=11 ]{19}
19:34 <•Kotono> roll 1d8+4
19:34 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d8+4 --> [ 1d8=7 ]{11}
19:34 <•Kotono> roll 1d8+4
19:34 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d8+4 --> [ 1d8=5 ]{9}
19:34 <•Kotono> Two arrows fly true, embedding in the last cow. IT's too much and it collapses, letting out a too high pitched whine as it does. OOC: Free act.
19:35 <Devar> Devar takes to the air to see if there's any other fauna deciding to head their way around them.
19:35 — Skaya comes over to Sanda, lips pursed, and immediately heals everyone in the area.
19:36 <•Kotono> OOC: PErception Devar, +2 bonus.
19:36 <Skaya> roll 4d6 to all
19:36 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 4d6 to all --> [ 4d6=15 ]{15}
19:36 <•Kotono> OOC: Could you top up HP in topic, Cor?
19:36 Skaya set the topic: Skaya: 100/100 (+6AC/+4 vs melee, GMW+2, Sanda's bracers of +4CON) Devar 113/113 Anne 83/83 Sanda 60/60 Rina 85/85
19:36 <Devar> roll 1d20+13 sure Kobot, I'll bite
19:36 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+13 sure Kobot, I'll bite --> [ 1d20=15 ]{28}
19:37 <Skaya> "Devar," Skaya says next. "Last time, I asked you to buy three scrolls of Regenerate. I know we've used one, but what about the other two?"
19:37 <•Kotono> Healing comes. Anne's pains fade, Rina's as well. Sanda's healed, as much as she can be by lesser magic. She lies there, panting and in pain. "Do-" she bites out, "Have one of those scrolls?"
19:37 <•Kotono> "Yes, hurry. We'll heal her then put this village to the torch. Whatever evil has festered here will be cleansed," Rina's voice is tight.
19:37 <•Kotono> "Just so," Anne says, "I see now why we ended up in such a place."
19:39 <•Kotono> Devar looks around. Nothing's coming - wait. He sees one of the buildings shift. A large, two story building of some kind with a thatched roof. He swears it shifts and wiggles as if alive.
19:40 <Devar> Is this entire place just mimics?! OOC: Actually, what knowledge check is appropriate for asking what the hell these things are?
19:40 <•Kotono> OOC: K:D
19:40 <•Kotono> .
19:40 <Devar> "Hey, uh, I think one of the buildings is the same thing as the rest of these things." Devar says as he comes to land. "Skaya, you're usually an expert on this stuff, I've got no clue - are these just mimics?"
19:41 <•Kotono> "Building?!" Anne says, voice suddenl choked.
19:41 — Skaya immediately casts Greater Magic Weapon, it's clearly no time to hold back. "Sanda, hold on a bit longer," she says as she prepares for combat. "There's no time to use Regenerate right now."
19:41 <•Kotono> "Building." Rina's voice is flatter, horrified. "An entire building?"
19:41 <Skaya> roll 1d20+16+7 K:D
19:41 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+16+7 K:D --> [ 1d20=5 ]{28}
19:42 <Skaya> OOC: Actually 29, not that it matters
19:42 <•Kotono> Sanda struggles to her feet, remaining hand using her staff to balance. "I'll try," She says. Skaya racks her brain. They look like some sort of advanced mimic? More fluid though, but similar. Perhaps some greater sort of mimic. Something that is not meant to be, at least.
19:42 <Skaya> "Could be a mimic," Skaya allows, picking up Sanda. "Let's all take to the air right now."
19:43 <•Kotono> Anne scoops up Rina without further comment, taking to the air. "Let's," Rina agrees.
19:43 <•Kotono> Liza goes over to Devar, "As long as they can't grow wings, we can observe from above."
19:44 <•Kotono> "Do shut up," Anne says sourly, "Don't give them ideas or bring Tymora's opposite on us."
19:45 <Skaya> Once up on the air, Skaya sends a Flaming Sphere towards the wiggling house.
19:45 <Skaya> roll 2d6 fire, I'll be at max range for it at 180ft up
19:45 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 2d6 fire, I'll be at max range for it at 180ft up --> [ 2d6=4 ]{4}
19:45 <Skaya> OOC: It can roll reflex!
19:45 <Devar> Devar lifts up Liza to the air. "Hopefully Storm's Eye will get back here soon so I can help more with the long distances."
19:46 <•Kotono> "Is it supposed to come to you?" Liza asks as they ascend.
19:48 <Devar> "Yes, though what form or fashion that dictates I have no idea. I assume it'll be a raging storm he just flies out of, that seems like something he'd do." Devar says.
19:48 <•Kotono> Skaya fires away. The sphere comes, but as it does? The entire building leaps up and away. LEgs dangle from below, made of ooze, and its entire side is now one great, big mouth. All the ground shakes at that, as from buildings others emerge. Men, women. Cats, dogs, farm animals. Dozens and dozens, as a few smaller buildings also sprout legs and mouths. What's worse is other things. A broom,
19:48 <•Kotono> barn doors, plates, a shirt and more all come out, growing legs and large mouths. A wordless, too high pitched din echos from them, all looking up at the party.
19:48 <•Kotono> "What in-" Sanda choke sout.
19:49 <Skaya> Fine! If fire doesn't work, let's use water! Skaya decides that now will be the time to see just how many targets she can suppress with the Feybone Arcana from the air!
19:49 <Devar> "I... the entire town!?" Devar shouts in surprise. "If they were just peaceful I wouldn't care about what they were, but..."
19:51 <Skaya> roll 1d20+15 Still ranged touch? I'll use Haste this round.
19:51 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+15 Still ranged touch? I'll use Haste this round. --> [ 1d20=20 ]{35}
19:51 <Skaya> roll 1d20+15 crit?
19:51 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+15 crit? --> [ 1d20=19 ]{34}
19:51 <Skaya> roll 12d6 okay then
19:51 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 12d6 okay then --> [ 12d6=40 ]{40}
19:52 <•Kotono> Water sprays about. Several humanoids and other creatures are blasted, by they aren't dumb. The ones that aren't hit retreat inside, while the ones that are hit are knocked about. Some are able to scramble and make distance, but some are downed.
19:52 <•Kotono> *but
19:53 <Skaya> "This is the time to just rain massive spells down like the fist of an angry god," Skaya notes to the others.
19:54 <Skaya> Meanwhile, that Flaming Sphere follows some of those smaller humanoids inside one of the houses. Surely that broom with a mouth can burn within it?
19:54 <Skaya> roll 2d6 some more fire
19:54 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 2d6 some more fire --> [ 2d6=10 ]{10}
19:54 <Devar> "It's really sad, if they hadn't attacked us and had turned out to be mimics, I probably would've overlooked it." Devar says. "If they were just peaceful, living somewhere and doing... whatever this is..."
19:55 <Skaya> "Yes, yes. Fire at them!"
19:55 <Devar> "I don't have anything that does that!" Devar says. "You're the one with the magic artifact bone!"
19:57 <•Kotono> "I'm a healer, not a mage," Anne replies plainly.
19:57 <•Kotono> Rina shakes her head, "I have a little, but it's all elemental power. Liza?"
19:57 <Skaya> "Yes, Rina! You surely can summon a flaming sphere like the one I sent into one of the houses!"
19:57 <•Kotono> "Allow me," Liza rustles in her things, passing one scroll to Devar and then takes one out. "Try that, Devar."
19:58 <•Kotono> Meanwhile Skaya's flaming spere follows. The broom is indeed hit and catches on fire, burning away as the sphere hits it, just feet from making it inside.
19:58 <Devar> Devar will take the scroll in one hand and giving it a look over to see what he's casting so he can aim it better!
20:07 <•Kotono> It's a scroll of Fireball.
20:08 <Devar> Devar will read it - that's a spell he knows he can cast, at least, so there's no problem!
20:11 <Devar> OOC: I think it's DC 14 reflex since it's a scroll, right?
20:11 <•Kotono> OOC: Casting it?
20:11 <•Kotono> OOC: YUes.
20:12 <•Kotono> OOC: Lemme know wher eyou'reaiming it.
20:12 <Devar> Devar incants the magic of the spell, sending it down and the largest clump of things - be it buildings or things pretending to be buildings!
20:13 <Devar> roll 5d6
20:13 <Kobot> Devar rolled 5d6 --> [ 5d6=11 ]{11}
20:16 <•Kotono> roll 5d6 Same for Liza
20:16 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 5d6 Same for Liza --> [ 5d6=19 ]{19}
20:17 <•Kotono> roll 1d20 various mods so just getting the idea Devar
20:17 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20 various mods so just getting the idea Devar --> [ 1d20=14 ]{14}
20:17 <•Kotono> roll 1d20 various mods so just getting the idea Liza
20:17 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20 various mods so just getting the idea Liza --> [ 1d20=2 ]{2}
20:17 <•Kotono> Fire flies. More retreating creatures are burned, charred. A few fires are sparked as the streets have cleared. Except for a few mobile buildings, who are leaping up and down, side to side, looking up at the party allt he while.
20:18 <Devar> "This is going to take ages if you want to destroy all of it." Devar says.
20:19 <Skaya> "It's not like I can leave cannibal buildings here and just leave," Skaya responds with a frown. "Want to gain some more altitude and determine just where are we? I'll keep at it."
20:19 — Skaya targets one of the leaping buildings and tries to drill its roof with water!
20:19 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:19 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=11 ]{25}
20:19 <Skaya> roll 8d6
20:19 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=28 ]{28}
20:21 <Devar> Devar nods. "I can throw some lightning down at them, but it's not going to do a lot, I don't think." He says as he flies up more. "I do wish we had a way of knowing -where- exactly we were..."
20:26 <•Kotono> OOC: #evil, Devar.
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Corwin

20:29 <•Kotono> It looks to be hilly land as you scend. Hills that give way to eastern mountains and western plains. It's remote, forests keeping it isolateda long with hills. There's a few rivers in the far distance, and signs of what might be far distant villages along them.
20:32 <Devar> "What's your take on this?" Devar asks, since he's still carrying Liza. He hums once, still unsure of where exactly he is. "I guess it doesn't matter how far we are from home, we've got the magic to take us there."
20:36 <•Kotono> "I haven't ran into anything like this," LIza says, "But it seems like they're predators and cannibals. You don't let those live."
20:37 <Devar> "No, I agree. Just makes you wonder why they even were doing the 'peasant act' at all, you know? Just pretend to be cows." Devar says.
20:40 <Devar> Devar looks around to see if there's anything else incoming - i mean they're fighting an entire town so what else could join them? "I just hope we don't get some neighborhood towns to join in on this..."
20:42 <•Kotono> "It may be something corruptive," LIza reasons, "Rather than that they were born this way." Nothing incoming besides what's going on down below, anyway.
20:43 <Devar> "Ugh, we did run into something like a while back... it's why some of us can melt through stone every day." Devar says. "I hope it isn't the end result of that..."
20:49 <•Kotono> "I hope not," Liza shakes her head quickly, "What's going on with this world? It seems like everything's going wrong!"
20:53 <Devar> "You aren't wrong. But I think this is just a coincidence, more than anything... but maybe some forces have it out for us." Devar says. "Anyway, ready to go back? I don't think we can do much else from here."
21:01 <•Kotono> "Ready," Liza agrees, "We can't abandon Skaya and the rest."
21:01 <Devar> Devar flies back down to the fracas!
21:04 <•Kotono> OOC: I'll loop you back in shortly.
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Corwin

20:28 <•Kotono> More water flies. You blast one of the buildings, the roof hit. It flays away some of the thatching, ooze leaking out. However, it starts to leap higher and higher, as if building up momentum.
20:29 — Skaya sends a fireball into its oozing guts!
20:29 <Skaya> roll 8d6 ref DC 18 half
20:29 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 ref DC 18 half --> [ 8d6=29 ]{29}
20:36 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+8
20:36 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+8 --> [ 1d20=6 ]{14}
20:37 <•Kotono> The fireballb ursts around it, singing and burning it. Now it's on fire and hopping. Improvement? AGH! Wings sprout out of its back, horrible, fleshy things as it tries to ascend. They flap hard, slowly starting to elevate it off the ground.
20:38 <Skaya> "Anne, can you bring Sanda over as well and fly up?" Skaya asks.
20:42 <•Kotono> Anne's already ascending at that, "Of course, there's no pointletting it get closer."
20:43 — Skaya passes Sanda over to her. "You're right. I'm the one who's going to fight it!"
20:43 <Skaya> roll 1d10+8 false life
20:43 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d10+8 false life --> [ 1d10=1 ]{9}
20:43 Skaya set the topic: Skaya: 9+100/100 (+6AC/+4 vs melee, GMW+2, Sanda's bracers of +4CON) Devar 113/113 Anne 83/83 Sanda 60/60 Rina 85/85
20:48 <•Kotono> "Got a plan?" Anne calls back as she rises up.
20:51 — Skaya waits for the house to gain some altitude before she does her very best to smash into it from above and then retreat once more!
20:51 <Skaya> OOC: I'll use travel devotion as swift, then move/attack/move and use acrobatics to try and avoid an AoO
20:52 <•Kotono> OOC: Give mea crobatics then.
20:52 <Skaya> roll 1d20+24
20:52 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+24 --> [ 1d20=8 ]{32}
20:53 <Skaya> OOC: I'll use cunning defense if that fails
21:00 <•Kotono> OOC: It does so brace.
21:00 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+28 (+1 ???, +2 ???, +1 ???) it's a giant building with lots of str
21:00 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+28 (+1 ???, +2 ???, +1 ???) it's a giant building with lots of str --> [ 1d20=4 ]{32}
21:00 <•Kotono> OOC: AC?
21:00 <Skaya> OOC: More than that
21:01 <•Kotono> OOC: Make your attack roll then.
21:02 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+7 inspiration, haste, stun Fort DC21
21:02 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+7 inspiration, haste, stun Fort DC21 --> [ 1d20=20 ]{41}
21:02 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+7 inspiration, haste, stun Fort DC21 crit?
21:02 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+7 inspiration, haste, stun Fort DC21 crit? --> [ 1d20=2 ]{23}
21:02 <Skaya> OOC: I'll do the rest of my turn once this resolves
21:02 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8
21:02 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 --> [ 3d6=13 1d8=3 ]{22}
21:05 <•Kotono> WHAM! Skaya manages a direct hit, for all that a foot to a thatch roof does. IT caves ab it of it inbut not much, but it's an awfully big target. Before she can really linger on that, she has to retreat up, escaping out of range untouched for now. She flies up and-! It sends a long, long, loooong tongue lashing up at her in revenge once she's away, soaring right for her. OOC: Thet ongue provokes
21:05 <•Kotono> an AoO if you want to take it.
21:06 <Skaya> OOC: Can we resolve the stun? Or these things can't be stunned, only critted?
21:11 <•Kotono> OOC: Stun immune, meant to mention in the text.
21:12 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+7 I love AoOs
21:12 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+7 I love AoOs --> [ 1d20=15 ]{36}
21:12 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8
21:12 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 --> [ 3d6=15 1d8=3 ]{24}
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Corwin

21:12 <•Kotono> The tongue is hit and it recoils back, interrupted. It falls down and collapses into ooze, most of which that flows back into the form of the giant building. As this happens Devar descends, rejoining the group. "Dangerous, isn't it?" Anne remarks as Skaya manages to avoid the worst.
21:13 <Devar> "They can fly now?!"
21:14 <Skaya> "I hoped to make it crash to the ground from a height, but that didn't seem to do much damage to it, surprisingly," Skaya muses. "Also, I feel like I can't affect it much-- ah yes, it grew wings. Try using lightning on it once it flies again? Maybe they have an element they're really weak against."
21:18 <•Kotono> "Worth a try," Anne agrees as it continues to slowly rise up, more and more. Not good flight, not worthwhile flight, but still off the ground.
21:20 <Skaya> Holding up the Feybone Arcana, Skaya attempts to target the fake building's wings. Perhaps then it will fall and splatter properly?
21:20 <Skaya> roll 1d20+15 ranged touch
21:20 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+15 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=18 ]{33}
21:21 <Skaya> roll 8d6
21:21 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=37 ]{37}
21:21 <Devar> Devar calls up his half-elemental status to conjure a bolt of lightning! OOC: Call Lightning. He, too, will aim at the wings with it.
21:22 <Devar> roll 3d6 lightning, DC 22 reflex
21:22 <Kobot> Devar rolled 3d6 lightning, DC 22 reflex --> [ 3d6=12 ]{12}
21:23 <•Kotono> roll1 d20+8
21:23 <Kobot> Kotono rolled d20+8 --> [ 1d20=10 ]{18}
21:23 <•Kotono> Two blasts hit the creature. Those wings shudder and give way, the house falling in a near tumble. Not q uite, enough juice in them to break the fall, but it still hits the ground and is no longer ascending.
21:25 <Skaya> "Tedious that it is, I think I can only keep on attacking it at extreme range with water," Skaya admits. "And if more than one of them attempts to fly up, we might have to retreat."
21:27 <Devar> "Oh, there were some smaller villages a bit of a ways away, not that we intend to retreat, but just for the record." Devar says. "I have no idea where we are, there don't appear to be any noteworthy landmarks around... not that it's really a pressing matter, given, you know." He gestures down at the house.
21:27 <•Kotono> It's not flying now at least, but moving and trying to gather itself back up, as it moves as fast and evasively as a giant house can. Which isn't much, really.
21:28 — Skaya just keeps targetting it!
21:28 <Skaya> OOC: Should I keep rolling for attack?
21:28 <•Kotono> OOC: Go for it, make another attack.
21:28 <Skaya> roll 1d20+15 ranged touch
21:28 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+15 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=3 ]{18}
21:28 <Skaya> roll 8d6
21:28 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=35 ]{35}
21:28 <•Kotono> OOC: How far up are y'all?
21:28 <Skaya> OOC: I'm 180ft up
21:29 <Skaya> OOC: Anne should be much higher, Devar is presumably near me with Liza
21:29 <Devar> OOC: Devar will keep zapping it with lightning bolts since the spell lasts for a while.
21:29 <Devar> roll 3d6 lightning, DC 22 reflex
21:29 <Kobot> Devar rolled 3d6 lightning, DC 22 reflex --> [ 3d6=11 ]{11}
21:32 <•Kotono> roll1 d20+8
21:32 <Kobot> Kotono rolled d20+8 --> [ 1d20=20 ]{28}
21:33 <•Kotono> More blasts hit it. It manages to avoid the lightning in part, then its side-maw opens wide. A huge glob of ooze is fire up, right at Skaya. DODGE! OOC: Ref save, Skaya.
21:33 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+7 evasion
21:33 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+7 evasion --> [ 1d20=5 ]{26}
21:33 <Skaya> OOC: +1 for 27
21:39 <•Kotono> Just barely Skaya reacts in time, flying up. Zipping up, out of range as the gloop rises up and then cascades down. It rains down, missing Skaya. Whew!
21:40 <Skaya> Breathing a bit heavily, Skaya can only keep on fighting! Even if it's a weird house-shaped ooze-based swarm, eventually it will all get washed out! For sure!
21:40 <Skaya> roll 1d20+15 ranged touch
21:40 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+15 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=3 ]{18}
21:40 <Skaya> roll 8d6
21:40 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=17 ]{17}
21:41 <Devar> Devar will continue to bolt it!
21:41 <Devar> roll 3d6 lightning, DC 22 reflex
21:41 <Kobot> Devar rolled 3d6 lightning, DC 22 reflex --> [ 3d6=9 ]{9}
21:46 <•Kotono> roll1 d20+8
21:46 <Kobot> Kotono rolled d20+8 --> [ 1d20=1 ]{9}
21:47 <•Kotono> More hits. The building lands hard again and lets out a too high pitched screech, before slumping down. It's not moving any more.
21:47 — Skaya shoots it again just to be sure, before taking stock of the other buildings. How many are there? Are they the same size? Are they growing wings?
21:54 <•Kotono> They're smaller and they're hiding, using other buildings for cover. It's as if the entire village is waiting for a storm to go away.
21:56 <Skaya> "There... seem to be actual, regular buildings down below," Skaya says in disbelief. "I'll go investigate!" She decides to drop down to the edge of the village where the least of the hiding building are and see if they intend to charge her or run away.
21:57 <Devar> "This is normally that part in the religious passages where they preach tolerance and peace to help people on a path of redemption... but I don't think that sort of ethos covers this situation." Devar says as he watches Skaya go down.
22:00 <•Kotono> "It really doesn't," Anne agrees, "You don't argue with a hungry mountain lion that wants to eat you." OOC: Perception, Skaya.
22:00 <Skaya> OOC: 10 for 30
22:02 <Devar> "No, but what do you do about the mountain lion's cubs?" Devar asks. "This situation just doesn't sit right with me, but they attacked us first, regardless."
22:07 <•Kotono> "What do you about a lemure or a dretch?" Anne asks, voice softening, "Sometimes all you can do is to protect others."
22:07 <•Kotono> Skaya looks about. The hiding buildings simply seem to be avoiding her altogether, at least based on how they move away from her.
22:08 <Devar> "Isn't there a story about someone like that being redeemed?" Devar asks. "Starre's patron, right? I understand your point, though."
22:08 <Skaya> "Surrender!" Skaya declares. Now that they've achieved superiority over them, perhaps the tedious clean up can be avoided. And hadn't they been capable of intelligent speech before?
22:12 <•Kotono> OOC: Give me intimidate check, Skaya.
22:12 <Skaya> roll 1d20+16+8
22:12 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+16+8 --> [ 1d20=6 ]{30}
22:14 <•Kotono> Skaya word hangs in the air as a response comes...next time!
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Corwin

19:09 <Kotono> By and large, they're dodging and hiding rather than responding to that.
19:11 — Skaya focuses on the nearest one and shoots it full of water! Since they can communicate but refuse to surrender, what else can she do with a bunch of cannibal mimics?
19:11 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
19:11 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=20 ]{34}
19:11 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch cirt?
19:11 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch cirt? --> [ 1d20=9 ]{23}
19:11 <Skaya> roll 8d6 if hit
19:11 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 if hit --> [ 8d6=32 ]{32}
19:11 <Skaya> roll 16d6 if crit
19:11 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 16d6 if crit --> [ 16d6=47 ]{47}
19:12 <Kotono> OOC: Hold your horses on the attack roll a sec.
19:14 <Kotono> It's not too hard to see with the aerial perspective. All the party can see something come from a building on the far side of the village. Birds fly out of that building. Not one, not ten, not a hundred. Far more, pouring out, taking to the skies and darting up towards the party. It's an array of birds, coloful and bright.
19:16 <Skaya> OOC: Can I use that attack to shoot them instead, then?
19:18 <Kotono> OOC: You can attack them if yu want, sure.
19:19 <Skaya> OOC: Does that crit on them?
19:21 <Kotono> Yes.
19:21 <Kotono> OOC: Yes.
19:21 <Skaya> roll 12d6 BIRDS
19:21 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 12d6 BIRDS --> [ 12d6=44 ]{44}
19:26 <Kotono> The blast comes, knocking quite a few birds away. The problem is that there's a great many, and for every one blasted aside, more pour out. "Where are they even coming from?" Anne scowls, as more and more rise up, ascending towards the party fast. OOC: Okay, I'm going to call for init here for organization reasons.
19:26 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13
19:26 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=16 ]{29}
19:27 <Kotono> roll 1d20 Sanda
19:27 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20 Sanda --> [ 1d20=14 ]{14}
19:28 <Kotono> roll 1d20+5 Anne
19:28 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+5 Anne --> [ 1d20=10 ]{15}
19:28 <Devar> roll 1d20+3 Devar
19:28 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+3 Devar --> [ 1d20=5 ]{8}
19:28 <Kotono> roll 1d20+14 Rina
19:28 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 Rina --> [ 1d20=5 ]{19}
19:28 <Kotono> roll 1d20+6 Liza
19:28 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+6 Liza --> [ 1d20=16 ]{22}
19:28 <Kotono> roll 1d20+6 birds
19:28 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+6 birds --> [ 1d20=10 ]{16}
19:29 <Kotono> Init is Skaya (29) > Liza (22) > Rina (19) > Birds (16) > Anne (15) > Sanda (14) > Devar (8)
19:29 <Kotono> OOC: Skaya, open.
19:32 <Skaya> Skaya pauses in thought, before putting up a Wind Wall to block the door and any windows near it from that building. It will blow away any bird smaller than an eagle further inside, no doubt crushing them against other birds further in, and even the larger birds won't be able to cross that barrier unless they're human-sized! And the best part is, if they try to use another window on the opposite wall, Skaya is not the only one who can
19:32 <Skaya> use Wind Wall!
19:35 <Kotono> The wind wall manifests, blocking one exit point of the birds. It buys the party time as Liza likewise holds position, not in a situation to easily do much. Same with Rina, really. OOC: The peril of not being fliers. Birds are up.
19:38 <Kotono> Birds wind out, all that got out before that wall was blocked. While some try coming out of other sides of the building, the ones that are out and not splashed with water form a flock of them, ascending towards Skaya. They aren't there yet, but they're moving at a good clip. OOC: Anne.
19:38 <Kotono> Anne does the same in the meantime, blocking off the other big side of the building with another wind wall just as a few birds start to escape it. Good enough to pen them in further, as Sanda softly moans, still in terrible shape if stable. OOC: Devar go.
19:40 <Devar> Devar will fly forward, aiming to try and thin out the birds with some magic! OOC: Moving to get closer, then Lightning Bolt at as many birds as he can at once.
19:41 <Devar> roll 8d6 DC 22 Reflex half lightning bzzt
19:41 <Kobot> Devar rolled 8d6 DC 22 Reflex half lightning bzzt --> [ 8d6=24 ]{24}
19:42 <Kotono> roll 1d20+7
19:42 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+7 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{20}
19:42 <Kotono> Lightning flies, zapping the birds. Quite a few are fried, falling to the ground and oozing goo from where they're hit. There's still far more however, even if a chunk of them are gone. OOC: Skaya.
19:43 — Skaya can only shoot the birds some more!
19:44 <Skaya> OOC: I have no idea if they're functionally a swarm, or if the multi-target option of the Feybone has a limit of X targets, so I'll just keep at it
19:44 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
19:44 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=5 ]{19}
19:44 <Skaya> roll 6d6
19:44 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=19 ]{19}
19:48 <Kotono> Another spray of water flays away more birds. They fall, winds broken and bodies smashed. You'r emaking steady headway getting them down, enough that the remainder break apart and star to flee, rather than continuing to advance. With the building sealed up with wind walls mostly, you seem to have staunched this attack against the party. OOC: Free act for the moment, that was well done.
19:49 <Skaya> "Let's take a look at what's generating those birds within?" Skaya tells Devar and Liza. Hopefully, they won't need Sanda's help for that.
19:50 <Devar> "If they refuse every avenue of communication and won't surrender, we don't have a choice." Devar says with a nod of agreement.
19:54 <Kotono> "No choice," Anne swoops in, "Those wind walls won't last forever, either."
19:54 — Skaya leads the way to that building to take a closer look. And hopefully Devar can look for magic!
19:54 <Kotono> Meanwhile the party ascends down. Right now nothing immediate is happening in response, as Devar gets closer. The house itself doesn't radiate magic on a quick glance, but the walls would hide anything within, most likely.
19:55 <Skaya> "Let's take a quick glance inside. The wind won't stop us, but should block all but the exceptionally huge birds away," Skaya proposes, doing just that and taking a look through the door.
19:56 <Devar> "If you have the sentience to understand us, then it's in your best interests to relent these attacks." Devar says to the building and around, as he nods and goes to follow Skaya's lead. "I don't see anything magical on the otuside."
19:59 <Kotono> OOC: Just for my reference, how close are you getting to the building?
20:00 <Skaya> OOC: All the way into melee range, then entering the door if it didn't try to eat me
20:03 <Kotono> The house doesn't try to eat you. Everything seems to be staying away. The door'se ven there, and inside, past the wind wall, you can see a great man birds penned inside. They don't look happy, as much as birds look anything.
20:04 — Skaya pushes past the door, shoots water at the birds and then retreats!
20:05 <Skaya> OOC: I'll get just past it, maybe 1ft, and since Travel Devotion is still in effect I'll retreat after shooting
20:05 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:05 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=4 ]{18}
20:05 <Skaya> roll 6d6
20:05 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=22 ]{22}
20:06 <Skaya> OOC: Aside from thinning the numbers, the other goal is to see where they're coming from once there's less of them
20:09 <Kotono> OOC: Through the wind wall in front of it?
20:09 <Skaya> OOC: Yes, I'm stepping through the wind wall, shooting, and stepping back.
20:15 <Kotono> That gets the birds attention. Skaya does so, but some of them try darting at her, trying to strike her in retort.
20:15 <Kotono> roll 1d20+10
20:15 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 --> [ 1d20=20 ]{30}
20:15 <Kotono> roll 1d20+10 ow
20:15 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 ow --> [ 1d20=10 ]{20}
20:15 <Kotono> roll 1d6+4 ow
20:15 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d6+4 ow --> [ 1d6=1 ]{5}
20:16 Skaya set the topic: Skaya: 4+100/100 (+6AC/+4 vs melee, GMW+2, Sanda's bracers of +4CON) Devar 113/113 Anne 83/83 Sanda 60/60 Rina 85/85
20:16 <Kotono> OW! A bird flies right in Skaya's face when she steps in, timed perfectly. She still gets her shot off, but the bird knocks her back a moment after. Nothing's broken and nothing False Life didnt' cover, but that was definitely a bird to the face.
20:16 <Skaya> OOC: By how much did I thin them out? 10%? Half? Not even 1%? Did I see where the birds are coming from?
20:17 <Kotono> "You okay?" Rina asks as Skaya looks. They're thinning out from that, but there's till more surging from further inside.
20:17 <Skaya> "Yeah, just a lucky hit. I'm gonna just step in for now. Devar, how about following me inside?"
20:18 — Skaya walks through the doorway and then uses the Feybone to clear a path further inside. Time to take a look what's there!
20:18 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:18 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=12 ]{26}
20:18 <Skaya> roll 6d6
20:18 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=20 ]{20}
20:18 <Skaya> OOC: I can move quite a lot, so once the path is clear I'll step in. I can accept an AoO.
20:26 <Kotono> More birds are bashed and broken, the rest retreating back. They indeed attack Skaya on entering, the remainder going right for her.
20:26 <Kotono> roll 1d20+10
20:26 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 --> [ 1d20=20 ]{30}
20:26 <Kotono> roll 1d20+10 ow again
20:26 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 ow again --> [ 1d20=2 ]{12}
20:26 <Kotono> roll 1d6+4 birds man birds
20:26 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d6+4 birds man birds --> [ 1d6=6 ]{10}
20:26 Skaya set the topic: Skaya: 94/100 (+6AC/+4 vs melee, GMW+2, Sanda's bracers of +4CON) Devar 113/113 Anne 83/83 Sanda 60/60 Rina 85/85
20:26 <Kotono> WHAM! Bird to the side of the head, again. This time it knocks Skaya silly momentarily, a loud THUD as one rattles her head. That one crumpled to the ground, broken from the impact.
20:27 <Skaya> It's nothing compared to what Sanda went through! And her friend is still suffering because they can't find a moment of quiet in this cursed place, so Skaya forges into the house in search of the source of these birds, while thinning them out as she goes.
20:27 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:27 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=5 ]{19}
20:27 <Skaya> roll 6d6
20:27 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=22 ]{22}
20:32 <Kotono> More birds fall as Skaya leads the way. So what if birds try to ram into her? She's w iping them out fast, most fleeing. A few potshots is the cost of doing bird business.
20:32 <Kotono> roll 3#1d20+10
20:32 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 3#1d20+10 --> [ 1d20=8 ]{18}, [ 1d20=7 ]{17}, [ 1d20=18 ]{28}
20:32 <Kotono> Not that any hit her thistime, the lucky shots done with. The way ahead's clear, more or less.
20:33 — Skaya takes care to clear any bird she finds, although she has to wonder. Shouldn't there be a constant flow of new birds? How is she supposed to find their origin without it?
20:33 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:33 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=11 ]{25}
20:33 <Skaya> roll 6d6
20:33 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=25 ]{25}
20:38 <Kotono> OOC: Devar, were you following or staying outside?
20:39 <Devar> OOC: He will go in with Skaya
20:43 <Kotono> More birds are swept aside. Yuou press inwards - there! In a hallway the floor has been torn open. Birds fly up out of it, more and more as they're 20ft away. A cloud of them is gathering, coming up from below. "What in?" Rina calls out as Sanda staggers, leaning on Anne as she goes.
20:45 — Skaya shoots at the birds before advancing! If they attack, she'll be the vanguard!
20:45 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:45 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=9 ]{23}
20:45 <Skaya> roll 6d6
20:45 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=17 ]{17}
20:47 <Kotono> That's strong enough to knock them away...before a massive surge erupts out! This time there's a whole lot of birds, a demented screech and caw before, "Too many birds!" Anne yelps, free hand warding her and Sanda with her mace. OOC: Unfortunately you have a case of the birds. Init again.
20:47 <Kotono> roll 1d20 Sanda
20:47 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20 Sanda --> [ 1d20=2 ]{2}
20:47 <Kotono> roll 1d20+5 Anne
20:47 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+5 Anne --> [ 1d20=6 ]{11}
20:47 <Kotono> roll 1d20+6 Liza
20:47 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+6 Liza --> [ 1d20=17 ]{23}
20:47 <Kotono> roll 1d20+6 birds
20:47 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+6 birds --> [ 1d20=8 ]{14}
20:48 <Kotono> roll 1d20+14 Rina
20:48 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 Rina --> [ 1d20=9 ]{23}
20:48 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13
20:48 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=9 ]{22}
20:48 <Devar> roll 1d20+3 anti bird devar
20:48 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+3 anti bird devar --> [ 1d20=12 ]{15}
20:50 <Skaya> "Burning Hands, Rina!" Skaya calls out. "No time like the present! I'll deal with any fires you start!"
20:51 <Kotono> Init is Liza = Rina (23) > Skaya (22) > Devar (15) > Birds (14) > Anne (11) > Sanda (2)
20:56 <Kotono> Rina steps to Skaya's side, extending her hands out as jets of fire come forth to burn at the birds.
20:56 <Kotono> roll 5d4
20:56 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 5d4 --> [ 5d4=12 ]{12}
20:57 <Kotono> roll 1d20+7
20:57 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+7 --> [ 1d20=9 ]{16}
20:57 <Kotono> The flames lick at the birds, scorching them further. The walls sizzle as Liza stays back, holding for now. OOC: She doesn't have quite the right tool in the toolkit here, at least in close quarters, so she'll hold for the moment. Skaya, go.
20:59 <Skaya> Didn't Liza have a few scrolls of Fireball? That was already more than enough, they've been in these successive battles for a while now. Skaya shoots the birds with water before boldly advancing into their midst, scorpion kama drawn! If they try to pass her, she'll have to cut a few!
20:59 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:59 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=8 ]{22}
20:59 <Skaya> roll 6d6
20:59 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 6d6 --> [ 6d6=19 ]{19}
21:00 <Skaya> OOC: Specifically, 7 AoOs
21:05 <Kotono> More birds blasted aside as Skaya advances in, a great many of them dive bombing her as she presses in as water does its job. OOC: Go fo rthem.

21:06 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 hit #7 --> [ 3d6=11 1d8=5 ]{22}
21:11 <Kotono> What follows is a brutal string of strikes. Birds that approach are swept down, broken and beaten. They're forced back by it, at least for now as she advances. They litter the ground as the walls smoke from Rina's spell. OOC: Devar, go.
21:14 <Devar> "Cease this madness!" Devar shouts, moving further in with Skaya to support her. "We're only still fighting because you won't stop, stop damning the rest of whatever it is that is here to folly!" OOC: I'm not sure if there's anything to attack at this point so he's basically just standing near her to prevent her from getting mobbed.
21:17 <Kotono> OOC: Give me an intimidation check, +2 bonus, Devar.
21:20 <Devar> OOC: Take 10 for 31 then
21:20 <Devar> OOC: spoopy paladin
21:32 <Kotono> Devar's words are heard, or at leats enought that the flow of birds sputters out. Not enough rise up to press the attack, at least righta way. Anne keeps supporting Sanda, as...OOC: Sanda holds for obvious reasons. Rina and Rina will hold pending what Skaya does. Go Skaya.
21:32 <Kotono> OOC: LIza and Rina, rather.
21:32 — Skaya heads down! If the birds stopped, then they stopped. She'll just use the chance to see where they originated from.
21:42 <Kotono> Peeking over, Skaya can see it's a rough basement below. The walls are lined with pulsing, throbbing goo-flesh. Birds grow in hanging, transparent flesh sacs from the walls beinga ssembled out of goo before your eyes.
21:43 <Skaya> OOC: Are they still growing?
21:46 <Kotono> OOC: Yes.
21:47 <Skaya> "Stop growing these birds at once or we fight to the death!" Skaya dictates. She can't just attack after Devar issued his ultimatum, but the enemy really must follow through or the deal's off!
21:51 <Kotono> OOC: Throw in your own intimidate check, +4 bonus this time.
21:52 <Skaya> OOC: I'll take 10 for 30, here
21:58 <Kotono> The birds do not stop growing.
21:59 <Skaya> "Fine." Skaya faces as many bird sacks as she can manage to get with Burning Hands and sets them on fire!
22:00 <Skaya> roll 5d4 Ref DC16 half
22:00 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 5d4 Ref DC16 half --> [ 5d4=12 ]{12}
22:01 <Kotono> OOC: Going to add anything to that, Devar? Just asking since I'm about to pause us, so I can resolve it all at once next session.
22:02 <Devar> "If you can talk, now is the time." Devar says, harshly. "This is your last chance."
22:02 <Devar> OOC: Donezo
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Corwin

19:06 <•Kotono> There's no words in response, at least.
19:07 <Devar> "Maybe this one can't actually talk?" Devar asks, he looks to see if any birds that it might have created are doing anything.
19:08 <Skaya> "Take down the birds or they will attack everyone," Skaya tells Devar tersely, switching to water next. "Starting with Sanda."
19:08 <Skaya> OOC: This is a weird situation where we're in init but I'm the only one acting, so should I keep rolling for attack or...?
19:09 <•Kotono> The free birds nearby as hovering and flying around. OOC: Go ahead and free act for the moment.
19:10 <•Kotono> Anne stays on guard, "Maybe it can't," she allows, "Or doesn't want to."
19:12 — Skaya shoots the birds, both flying and gestalting, with jets of water!
19:12 <Skaya> OOC: A bot is required
19:12 <Devar> "Skaya, do you see anything down there that leads anywhere?" Devar asks, still above from where she jumped down. "If you can understand us, can you communicate to something else that can talk to us?"
19:13 <Skaya> "Everything is pulsing goo-flesh and birds!"

19:14 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch of die birds die
19:14 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch of die birds die --> [ 1d20=20 ]{34}
19:15 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch of die birds die crit?!
19:15 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch of die birds die crit?! --> [ 1d20=11 ]{25}
19:15 <Skaya> roll 12d6 die for good
19:15 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 12d6 die for good --> [ 12d6=34 ]{34}
19:15 <•Kotono> Sure enough, birds do die. Water blasts send them flying, bodies broken and smashed. You've thinned out the ones about you, the floors quite wet with water and smashed, gooey birds.
19:16 <Devar> "I can see that part, maybe it can't... stop?" Devar reasons. "It isn't shooting the birds at you now anymore, is it?"
19:16 <Skaya> "It was still making them!" Skaya insists, before checking to see if that's still happening.
19:20 <•Kotono> It's no longe rdoing that. the birds are broken, the walls smashed with water. It's quiet down here, as much as anything here can be quiet.
19:22 <Skaya> "Alright, I got all of them for now," Skaya says, glancing back. "I need opinions, people. What do we do now? I'm seriously getting tired here." She's not, actually, so if the goo mimics hear her and decide to take advantage they'll just sign their own death warrants.
19:23 <Devar> Devar lets out a breath. "Maybe we can finally try and communicate with these things. Who among you has the ability to speak?" Devar asks at the hole, gesturing at his mouth. "If they keep attacking us we fight them, if they want to try and explain themselves or communicate I'm willing to hear their story."
19:24 <•Kotono> OOC: Perception Skaya, +2 bonus for the water.
19:24 <Skaya> OOC: Taking 10 for 32
19:25 <•Kotono> Hm? The water at her feet rustles and moves, splashing, as if something is moving it from below. From the floor itself.
19:26 <Skaya> "At some point, Devar," Skaya says, leaping into the air and exiting the basement, "you really need to stop giving the attacking cannibals yet another chance to talk it out. Feel free to deal with whatever's coming from below."
19:29 <Devar> Devar looks over the edge. "Sure, I don't mind."
19:31 <•Kotono> Skaya is just in time with that leap up, for the floor itself splits open. Water and more pours down another maw, so many teeth within. A huge tongue lashes up, going for Skaya fast!
19:31 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+21
19:31 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+21 --> [ 1d20=9 ]{30}
19:31 <•Kotono> OOC: AC?
19:32 <•Kotono> "What's going on down-AH!" Rina scoots back from the edge as the floor becomes a mouth, "Skaya!"
19:32 <Skaya> OOC: Higher than that
19:32 <Skaya> "Go on, deal with that!"
19:34 <Devar> "Even Eldath has her limits on how much peace is offered." Devar confirms as he goes to float down into the hole. "I'm not exactly sure how one 'deals with' this, but if it's cut enough that probably works."
19:37 <•Kotono> Skaya flies out and dodges the tongue, lashing about back and forth. She's safe for the moment, but a deep, dark maw is now that floor below. "You know, I did suggest fire right off," Anne points out.
19:37 <•Kotono> "Fire's good," Rina seconds.
19:37 <•Kotono> "Fire, lots of it," LIza thirds.
19:37 <•Kotono> Sanda groans.
19:38 — Skaya still has fire capabilities, calling up flames as bright as a torch into her hand! She'll just shoot it slowly while everyone seems to gawk.
19:38 <Skaya> OOC: Produce Flame!
19:40 <•Kotono> OOC: Go for it. How much damage?
19:40 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
19:40 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=4 ]{18}
19:40 <Skaya> roll 1d6+5 fire
19:40 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d6+5 fire --> [ 1d6=2 ]{7}
19:41 <Skaya> OOC: Not much, but it repeats per round
19:43 <•Kotono> A blob of fire is sent down. It's swallowed to smoke rising up from the impact, as the mouth widens even more then...OOC: WE'll do init again in that case. Good luck!
19:43 <•Kotono> roll 1d20 Sanda
19:43 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20 Sanda --> [ 1d20=7 ]{7}
19:43 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+5 Anne
19:43 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+5 Anne --> [ 1d20=15 ]{20}
19:43 <Devar> roll 1d20+3
19:43 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{16}
19:43 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+14 Rina
19:43 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 Rina --> [ 1d20=12 ]{26}
19:43 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+6 Liza
19:43 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+6 Liza --> [ 1d20=13 ]{19}
19:43 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+4 big mouth
19:43 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+4 big mouth --> [ 1d20=11 ]{15}
19:44 <•Kotono> Init is Rina (26) > Anne (20) > Liza (19) > Devar (16) > Big Mouth (15) > Sanda (7)
19:44 <•Kotono> OOC: Waiting on Skaya's init.
19:44 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13
19:44 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=19 ]{32}
19:44 <•Kotono> Init is Skaya (32) > Rina (26) > Anne (20) > Liza (19) > Devar (16) > Big Mouth (15) > Sanda (7)
19:44 <•Kotono> OOC: Open.
19:44 — Skaya tests the water this time, alternating between fire and water again.
19:44 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
19:44 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=9 ]{23}
19:45 <Skaya> roll 8d6
19:45 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=30 ]{30}
19:49 <•Kotono> Water flies out, slamming into the mouth. It lets out a high pitched noise, too loud, like glass against your ears. It also doesn't stop it, even as it choked on water. That tongue lashes, as Rina peers down. OOC: She'll hold a sec, since a bunch of water isn't great for throwing fire its way. Anne's up, she'll hold since healing and no way she wants to go down there and mace smash it. Liza.
19:52 <•Kotono> LIza steps forward, "Fly fast an dtrue!" She chants, once again throwing the best spell out, one that doesn't worry about water, missing or being easily deflected. Magic missiles go!
19:52 <•Kotono> roll 4d4+4
19:52 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 4d4+4 --> [ 4d4=6 ]{10}
19:52 <•Kotono> The missiles hit the maw, slamming in like twinkling stars. It's solid hits, making its tongue thrash more as...OOC: Devar.
19:54 <Devar> "If you were protecting something, I'd understand, but you're just attacking us in some vain hope of victory." Devar says, flying to strike at the tongue itself. OOC: Assuming that's a valid target - if not he'll just basically strike at the fleshy maw.
19:56 <•Kotono> OOC: Go for it.
19:57 <Devar> roll 1d20+15 whack
19:57 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15 whack --> [ 1d20=20 ]{35}
19:57 <Devar> roll 1d20+15 whack???
19:57 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15 whack??? --> [ 1d20=17 ]{32}
19:58 <Devar> OOC: I forget if these are crit immune or not
19:58 <Skaya> OOC: Only stun immune, I've been critting them
19:58 <Devar> OOC: Oh that is a fair point
19:59 <Devar> roll 2d8+12
19:59 <Kobot> Devar rolled 2d8+12 --> [ 2d8=8 ]{20}
20:00 <•Kotono> With one slice, Devar cuts the tongue down to size. Most of it falls away, the rest flopping about, greatly shortened. A near perfect move, leaving the short tongue to ooze impotently as it wiggles and waggles. OOC: Nice move. Sanda's still not really in combat shape, so Skaya, go.
20:01 <Skaya> Water seems to work better, so Skaya keeps at it!
20:01 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:01 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=19 ]{33}
20:01 <Skaya> roll 8d6
20:01 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=23 ]{23}
20:07 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+13
20:07 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=16 ]{29}
20:07 <•Kotono> More water chokes the maw, slamming and pulverizing it. It hacks and wheezes, struggling against it as Skaya fires away. Meanwhile Rina dashes back and looks out the door, "We have a problem!" OOC: Anne.
20:07 <Skaya> "What is it?"
20:07 <•Kotono> "Now what?" Anne calls back.
20:11 <•Kotono> "There's one of them outside, but it's a giant bull," Rina calls back, "It's huge!"
20:14 <Skaya> "I can probably deal with one of them myself," Skaya says tersely. "Figure out how to deal with the other one, and choose which one to face."
20:14 <•Kotono> As Anne meanwhile holds and awits, LIza keeps on firing missiles below. "I'll finish this one off," she calls.
20:14 <•Kotono> roll 4d4+4
20:14 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 4d4+4 --> [ 4d4=15 ]{19}
20:14 <•Kotono> The missiles slam home hard, making it thrash even more. It's battered good, LIza holding her ground as...OOC: Devar.
20:16 <Devar> "All you had to do was talk and not resort to violence." Devar says, flying to strike what's still left of this creature.
20:16 <Devar> roll 1d20+15 whack
20:16 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15 whack --> [ 1d20=20 ]{35}
20:16 <Devar> roll 1d20+15 whack??????????
20:16 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15 whack?????????? --> [ 1d20=20 ]{35}
20:16 <Devar> roll 2d8+12 fine Kobot, I'll accept this today
20:16 <Kobot> Devar rolled 2d8+12 fine Kobot, I'll accept this today --> [ 2d8=6 ]{18}
20:18 <•Kotono> Devar dives down, a drect stab right into what's left. He plunges into the floor, just above the maw. His sword penetrates down to the hilt, as a horribe screech sounds. The tongue finally goes still, however, the beast beaten. Ooze begins welling up from the maw, joining the water already on the ground. OOC: Free act, that's one way to end it.
20:18 — Skaya heads outside! If there's a mimic bull, she has to kill it!
20:19 <Devar> Devar says a prayer to Eldath and flies up to go after Skaya.
20:21 <•Kotono> The party rushes outside-! It's a bull, in a sense. In the same way a calf is a cow. This thing is gigantic, big as some of the buildings. Where did it come from!? It's about 100ft away and closing in at a gallop, head bowed and sword-like horns projected outward. Those horns split open as yo uwatch, becoming mouths big enough to swallow any one of you whole. Incoming! OOC: INit again, it be
20:21 <•Kotono> mad.
20:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d20 Sanda just wants regenerate
20:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20 Sanda just wants regenerate --> [ 1d20=5 ]{5}
20:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+5 Anne wants fire
20:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+5 Anne wants fire --> [ 1d20=18 ]{23}
20:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+14 Rina wants a drink
20:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 Rina wants a drink --> [ 1d20=2 ]{16}
20:21 <Skaya> roll 1d20+13
20:21 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=3 ]{16}
20:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+6 Liza wants out of here
20:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+6 Liza wants out of here --> [ 1d20=12 ]{18}
20:21 <Devar> roll 1d20+3
20:21 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=15 ]{18}
20:22 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+8 Bull
20:22 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+8 Bull --> [ 1d20=5 ]{13}
20:22 <Skaya> "Anne, take Sanda way up and stay out of things unless there's no other way," Skaya says as soon as she lays eyes on the situation.
20:22 <•Kotono> Init is Anne (23) > Liza = Devar (18) > Rina = Skaya (16) > Bull (13) > Sanda (5)
20:23 <•Kotono> Anne wastes no time, doing exactly that. She flie sstraight up with Sanda, who lets out a soft, pained noise as they escape upwards. OOC: LIza'n'Devar.
20:25 <Devar> "Want me to engage it or do so once it gets a bit closer?" Devar asks.
20:25 <Skaya> "Let's try to deal with this as quickly as possible."
20:27 <Devar> He can't quite make the distance as it is, so he simply flies slightly forward and waits! OOC: Flying like 5ft forward and holding my action if it gets close enough to do anything.
20:35 <•Kotono> Liza does the same, preparing for now with Devar. Rina likewise waits to intercept it, no one willing to go challenge it before it gets here. Skaya, go. It's got a greeting ready for it.
20:36 <Skaya> Well then. Skaya tries to hit it with a focused jet of water. Just because everything had been susceptible to it thus far here doesn't mean this will keep on happening. Better to find out now!
20:37 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14 ranged touch
20:37 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14 ranged touch --> [ 1d20=2 ]{16}
20:37 <Skaya> roll 8d6
20:37 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=22 ]{22}
20:39 <•Kotono> The bull somehow dodges. In spite of its huge size, it's startlingly fast and reactive, to an uncanny degree. It makes an outright leap, not breaking stride as it avoids the jet altogether. It barrels ahead, closing sixty feet of distance, now only forty feet away. OOC: IF a nyone wants to take hels in response to that, say so. For PCs I think that's just Devar.
20:41 <Devar> That's close enough! Devar will fly forward, aiming to strike at one of its legs, if he's able to at least slow it down, that will help the rest of the group! OOC: Basically flying to the side of its path to strike a leg.
20:41 <Devar> roll 1d20+15 whack
20:41 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15 whack --> [ 1d20=13 ]{28}
20:42 <Devar> roll 1d8+7 assuming that hit
20:42 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d8+7 assuming that hit --> [ 1d8=2 ]{9}
20:45 <•Kotono> Ack! The gooey body flows around the blade, dodging it with unnatural grace and speed. Rina's right with you, gliding past it's other side and trying the same.
20:45 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+18
20:45 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 --> [ 1d20=12 ]{30}
20:45 <•Kotono> No good, again. It dodges in the exact same way, avoiding the attack altogether. "Nothing!" Rina calls back, as...OOC: More.
20:45 <•Kotono> Init is Anne (23) > Liza (18) > Skaya (16) > Bull = Rina = Devar (13) > Sanda (5)
20:46 <•Kotono> Liza pulls out a scroll at this, "Fine," she snaps, before a bolt of pure electricity flies from her finger, going right for the bull.
20:46 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+15 ref it ain't heavy on its feet
20:46 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+15 ref it ain't heavy on its feet --> [ 1d20=10 ]{25}
20:47 <•Kotono> No good. It evades it altogether, dodging the lightning with far too much speed. It moves like liquid, dodging around it and not even pretending to be remotely normal. INside you can see teeth and goo, and more things you really don't want to see. OOC: Skaya.
20:49 <Skaya> "Dodge this," Skaya tells the bull, pulling over the Staff of Necromancy and pointing it in its general direction. Didn't it want to come closer? Then let it taste the Waves of Exhaustion!
20:50 <Skaya> OOC: It's a 60ft cone, I'll make sure only the bull is hit. No save, just SR.
20:51 <Skaya> OOC: Moves at half speed, -6 to str and to dex. Probably can't run or charge since it's a more severe Fatigued status.
20:52 <•Kotono> The bull sags deeply. Its as if a lot of the fight left it all at once, sapped away. Just in time, because it turns on Devar being closest and...OOC: All three of you are up. Devar, Rina and the ibg bull. Go.
20:54 <Devar> Devar was curious if there might be magic on this thing, but for now he'll just try pressing an attack since he's flanked with Rina!
20:54 <Devar> roll 1d20+15+2 whack
20:54 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15+2 whack --> [ 1d20=15 ]{32}
20:54 <Devar> roll 1d20+10+2 whack
20:54 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+10+2 whack --> [ 1d20=1 ]{13}
20:55 <•Kotono> OOC: One hit.
20:55 <Devar> OOC: hooray
20:55 <Devar> roll 1d8+7 whackadoo
20:55 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d8+7 whackadoo --> [ 1d8=8 ]{15}
21:01 <•Kotono> Devar's blade deftly slices through part of it. Flesh that is torn, not fixing itself right away. At the same time it strikes back at him, swinging wild and wide, horns going for him.
21:01 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+19 (-3 exhausted)
21:01 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+19 (-3 exhausted) --> [ 1d20=4 ]{23}
21:01 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+19 (-3 exhausted)
21:01 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+19 (-3 exhausted) --> [ 1d20=15 ]{34}
21:01 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+14 (-3 exhausted)
21:01 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 (-3 exhausted) --> [ 1d20=15 ]{29}
21:01 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+14 (-3 exhausted)
21:01 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+14 (-3 exhausted) --> [ 1d20=6 ]{20}
21:01 <•Kotono> OOC: AC?
21:02 <Devar> OOC: 39 against melee attacks specifically at the moment, also it needs to make a 24 DC will save or be dazzled and have -3 attack rolls
21:05 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+10
21:05 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 --> [ 1d20=2 ]{12}
21:05 <•Kotono> Light shines as Devar dodges again and again. He dodges the now slower monster, at the same time as Rina slashes away at its side, running past.
21:05 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+18
21:05 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 --> [ 1d20=1 ]{19}
21:06 <•Kotono> A slash too high as she passes by, missing it entirely. Meanwhile Sanda and Anne are still up above, as Skaya...OOC: Go.
21:06 — Skaya aims carefully with the Feybone Arcana. Let's see how well the bull's defenses hold while it's in battle!
21:07 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+1+7 haste and inspiration, ranged touch
21:07 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+1+7 haste and inspiration, ranged touch --> [ 1d20=11 ]{33}
21:07 <Skaya> roll 8d6
21:07 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 8d6 --> [ 8d6=26 ]{26}
21:07 — Skaya moves over just short of melee range, next, ready to take over for Rina as her own combat style is more of a hit and run.
21:11 <•Kotono> This time it's a direct hit. The bull's knocked back hard by the spray, unable to dodge it now. It reels from the hit, almost knocked over. At the same time Liza approaches, throwing a small glass vial right at it.
21:11 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+11
21:11 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+11 --> [ 1d20=14 ]{25}
21:11 <•Kotono> roll 6d4
21:11 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 6d4 --> [ 6d4=14 ]{14}
21:12 <•Kotono> Whatever it is, it shatters on the bull. Steam risesup from it immediately, bubbling green-brown acid eating through its back. Its eating through good as Devar...OOC: You three are up again, go.
21:14 <Devar> Devar makes his attacks anew!
21:14 <Devar> roll 1d20+15+2 whack
21:14 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15+2 whack --> [ 1d20=1 ]{18}
21:14 <Devar> roll 1d20+10+2 whack
21:14 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+10+2 whack --> [ 1d20=7 ]{19}
21:20 <•Kotono> Yet neither can close in and strike successfully. Even exhausted it resists, and trades blows with him as its pinned and weakened, half blinded.
21:20 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+16
21:20 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+16 --> [ 1d20=4 ]{20}
21:20 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+16
21:20 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+16 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{29}
21:20 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+11
21:20 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+11 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{24}
21:20 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+11
21:20 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+11 --> [ 1d20=19 ]{30}
21:21 <•Kotono> Not a blow lands, thrashing and swinging its head around. It's good and in trouble as Rina comes back, stabbing at its flanks now. "Go down!"
21:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+18
21:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 --> [ 1d20=17 ]{35}
21:21 <•Kotono> roll 1d6+3+1d6+3d6
21:21 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d6+3+1d6+3d6 --> [ 1d6=1 1d6=5 3d6=9 ]{18}
21:21 <•Kotono> A solid blow, thrusting in. Not fatal, but deep and one that oozes more as she cries, "Finish it off!" OOC: OOC: Liza and Skaya, go.
21:23 — Skaya moves into melee to flank with Devar as she stabs the bull repeatedly!
21:23 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking
21:23 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking --> [ 1d20=9 ]{32}
21:23 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking
21:23 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking --> [ 1d20=10 ]{33}
21:23 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking
21:23 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking --> [ 1d20=12 ]{35}
21:23 <Skaya> roll 1d20+9+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking
21:23 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+9+7+2 haste, inspiration, flanking --> [ 1d20=1 ]{19}
21:24 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8 hit #1
21:24 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 hit #1 --> [ 3d6=13 1d8=5 ]{24}
21:24 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8 hit #2
21:24 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 hit #2 --> [ 3d6=4 1d8=6 ]{16}
21:24 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8 hit #
21:24 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 hit # --> [ 3d6=10 1d8=2 ]{18}
21:28 <•Kotono> OOC: All but the last hit, yes.
21:33 <•Kotono> Skaya stabs away and again. It's resisting, whirling about on all sides, but is surrounded. Blood is drawn before it tries something, opening its mouth wide at Skaya as...OOC: All three of you are up, go.
21:33 <•Kotono> A massive gush of ooze comes flying at Skaya's face. DODGE! OOC: Evasion.
21:33 <Skaya> OOC: Liza is not going?
21:33 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+1+7 evasion
21:33 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+1+7 evasion --> [ 1d20=13 ]{35}
21:35 <Devar> Devar continues to strike, hopefully finishing this thing off!
21:35 <Devar> roll 1d20+15+2 whack
21:35 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+15+2 whack --> [ 1d20=3 ]{20}
21:35 <Devar> roll 1d20+10+2 whack
21:35 <Kobot> Devar rolled 1d20+10+2 whack --> [ 1d20=10 ]{22}
21:35 <Devar> OOC: I am not good at goopy things
21:35 <•Kotono> OOC: You really aren't. Liza's holding to conserve money and resources, since you all seem to have it in hand.
21:36 <•Kotono> SKaya evades the blast entirely as Devar swings in vain, but it gives Rina a chance to repeat, dashing by again as...
21:36 <•Kotono> roll 1d20+18
21:36 <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+18 --> [ 1d20=3 ]{21}
21:36 <•Kotono> Not that she's any better, no one at all hitting. Not even close as...OOC: Skaya and Liza, go. Liza will go this time if Skaya doesn't finish it off.
21:37 — Skaya reserves some of her power in case she'll need to dodge in a hurry, and just tries to strike the bull's weak spots!
21:37 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+2 haste, flanking
21:37 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+2 haste, flanking --> [ 1d20=17 ]{33}
21:37 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+2 haste, flanking
21:37 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+2 haste, flanking --> [ 1d20=17 ]{33}
21:37 <Skaya> roll 1d20+14+2 haste, flanking
21:37 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+14+2 haste, flanking --> [ 1d20=19 ]{35}
21:37 <Skaya> roll 1d20+9+2 haste, flanking
21:37 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 1d20+9+2 haste, flanking --> [ 1d20=4 ]{15}
21:38 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8 #1
21:38 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 #1 --> [ 3d6=14 1d8=2 ]{22}
21:38 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8 #2
21:38 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 #2 --> [ 3d6=13 1d8=3 ]{22}
21:38 <Skaya> roll 3d6+6+1d8 #3
21:38 <Kobot> Skaya rolled 3d6+6+1d8 #3 --> [ 3d6=12 1d8=1 ]{19}
21:42 <•Kotono> Three slashes to its weakened body, the last a deep stab into its chest. The bull lets out a far too high pitched noise before it collapses over. The ground shakes from the impact, massive. Down it goes, down and not moving anymore. Rina takes a long breath after, "Stay down." OOC: Free act.
21:43 <Skaya> "Please check if the others combined to make this trash," Skaya says, taking to the air to look from an elevated viewpoint.
21:44 <Devar> Devar shakes his head, flying over to the creature to inspect it. "I'm not sure how we'd be able to tell that, but..."
21:47 <•Kotono> It looks like one whole creature. Skaya flies up. Most of the smaller creatures are in hiding, it seems. Perhaps they fled. At the least, they aren't pressing an attack or showing themselves.
21:48 — Skaya decides to check out one of the buildings she saw them hide in previously.
21:52 <•Kotono> As Devar does that, "What a monstrous thing," LIza sniffs, "Powerful it was, but all brute strength."
21:52 <•Kotono> Skaya goes to fly over. AS she does...OOC: Sounds like sometime you'd wnat some Perception, don't you think?
21:52 <Devar> "Still, what in the world are these things?" Devar asks. "Clearly not just regular mimics..."
21:52 <Skaya> OOC: 10 for 30
21:57 <•Kotono> "I don't know. What we saw down there, this is something that's growing here." LIza rubs her arms, color pale.
21:58 <•Kotono> Skaya flies over. What she sees there shocks here, a moment of horror that comes...next time!
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake
