Easthaven

Jul 2, 2019 8:55 pm

Halla and Maverick have better luck with their flight across the battlefield. In her giant eagle form, Halla zips around golems and just between magical explosions to deposit Maverick behind a crumbling temple wall, just off to the side of the frost giants still burning from Ras’ spell.

Halla touches the floor with human feet, back to her usual self, and looks down at the short pale gnome beside her. "Whatever you’re searching for, necromancer, it had best be for our benefit, and not merely your own." She glances worriedly back at the approaching dracolich. "‘Tis not the time to send us on a wild chase."

Re: Easthaven

Maverick doesn’t look back at the woman, intent on their surroundings. "I remember when I first set foot in this place... The Lord of Battles didn’t smite me down then. Maybe he thinks better of me than you do. Now, where is Alalla’s bag?"

Re: Easthaven

Nearby, just out of sight of giants, Halla, and Maverick, Jermsy lets out a quiet sniff and lets his illusory self vanish. What’s the point, with no audience? All the fire and explosions are ruining his fun. He fades to invisibility again, then cocks his head as he overhears Halla and Maverick’s conversation. "Hmm..."

Re: Easthaven

Icasaracht's bone jaws open wide to issue an awful roar, all the more terrifying for its dry rasp. Alongside this undead queen of white dragons, even Aerihykloarara seems small.

The wind's chill increases tenfold as Icasaracht arrives, and those familiar with the legends of old remember another name for the great white wyrm: The Heart of Winter.

Her great, withered wings propel her toward the bulk of the army, eyes shining with unholy light.

Re: Easthaven

Round 6 Player Phase!!!!!!!

OOC:

Okay, business first:

Some people have to roll saves. Vince, Reo, and Al have to roll DC 21 Wis saves vs fear or be frightened of Merodach for the round. Also, Al has to roll a DC 14 Dex save or drop to 0 hp and start dying. Yikes.

ALSO everyone on the ground in Blue Zone has to make a DC 13 check, free of action cost, to avoid taking 2d6 fire damage. Just roll the damage for yourself if you fail.

Some details...

Icky is in the yellow zone, about 90 feet up.

Merodach is about 15 feet up in the Blue Zone, holding the antimagic coffer.

The golems are healing from fire damage, so they're both alive. Golem 1 is prone, however!

Re: Easthaven

As a reaction Reòthadh casts shield and Rage of Fallen Ostoria.

As the boulder flies towards the dwarven sorcerer, Reòthadh hears Merodoch’s monologue to Alalla. Acting quickly he taps into his giant heritage to grow in size just as the fiend points the antimagic trinket at her. Using his stature to his advantage, the dwarf positions himself in front of her, blocking its effects. As his shield enters the field it fails as the boulder strikes him square in the chest.

Reòthadh loses the benefit of shield and his concentration.

"Now is not yer time to die Alalla!"

Turning quickly he swings his axe ferociously, striking the golem with a solid swing to its chest. As the axe is drawn, a cold gale sweeps from the blade, extinguishing the flames (All nonmagical flames are extinguished in a 30 foot radius.)

Golem 1 takes 18 slashing damage and 6 cold damage (Should be lethal unless it gets healed).

He fires a radiant arrow at the coffer to knock it out of the fiend's hand, but it reacts quickly, maintaining it's grip. Reo steps in the way and Zenithral breaths relief. He changes his focus to the remaining golem. (Golem 2 takes 23 damage)

"Be strong, Aerihykloarara!" Zenithral shouts. Help her endure. (Shield of Faith. +2 AC and Aeri can use her reaction to make a weapon attack.)

Struggling to his feet, Ras staggers, looking around. From above the chaos had seemed controlled somehow, groups fighting here or there. From down here all he can see is smoke and rubble.

He hears Reo shout to Al and turns his gaze towards his friends. They are obviously struggling. Willing himself to stand tall (as tall as a gnome can anyway) he whispers a word of power. Healing energy sweeps across the battlefield toward his friends.

"Thanks," Al gasps as her heart restarts.

She tries to help the dwarf make sure one of the golems stays down, but in her fear and recovery her aim misses. A second swing hits, hopefully ensuring the construct stays down. Ignoring the devil, he could hurt bodies but not souls- probably- she turns to swing at the other golem, aiming to bring it down to the ground.

Al uses second wind to gain 13 hp. Golem 1 takes 24 damage. Stay down. Golem 2 takes 32 damage and must make a strength save or be knocked prone.

Re: Easthaven

A rush of pain hits Ug faster than a barbarian loses a loincloth. Ug staggers under the obslaught, his natural resistances providing little help. But he was a still a barbarian and still had friends. And he feels the help of one of those friends once again. With a health boost from Ras, Ug continues deftly through the flames trying desperately to score some hits on the remaining golem but the chaos surrounding him seems too much. He only manages one solid swing but this creature needs much more than that before it fall. g2 takes 33 danage

ug hp 41/154

The surviving blood hunters look on the battle between the heroes and titans in horrific awe. They were individually no much for this. But maybe together they could be. Though broken as they were, their blood curses carry through the air once more.

The good are still dying The priest props himself up for just long enough to hurl spell at the fiend. It’s not much, but every little bit can help, even just as a distraction. Merodacj takes 4 force damage
cleric hp 28

Still hiding in the rubble, and barely holding on to life, the remaining brother whispers a curse once more into the fallen giants. This time giants aim is off however. A boulder flies just past the fiend/ head.

Even the singing trio stops for a moment and raises an eerie strain that surrounds the wounded about them. Allies in the yellow section have +6 to their bonus against their next spell save.

The two wolf hunters each take up a Lycan chant directed at the fiend the eyeless causes the fiend to have disadvantage on the next two attacks. The binding causes it to roll a dc 13 strength save or reduce movement to zero

Re: Easthaven

Round 6 Summary

Still high in the air, Aerihykloarara’s eyes search the ground frantically. "Ras... Ras... Where are you? Ras!" When the gnome pulls himself from the burning rubble she breathes a prayer of thanks to Bahamut, then turns to regard the other dragon in the sky. And in spite of being inured to the cold herself, she feels a chill run down her spine.

Icasaracht’s jaws open wide as she looms over Easthaven, and the temperature drops even further. Ice crackles along the ground and frigid wind whips at hair and clothing as the dracolich prepares to unleash her devastating arctic breath. Looking up, Zenithral suddenly recognizes that a dragon of this size might be capable of destroying most of the army with one terrible breath. Beside him, Natalie whimpers.

And then a flash of silver streaks across the sky as Aerihykloarara slams into the side of Icasaracht’s neck. Teeth, claws, and tail crack against frozen bones, but Aeri’s scaled muscles quiver with exhaustion - even with Zenithral's divine blessing. After numerous fights against giants and devils today, after a strenuous flight to bring Ras and Vincent here in time, after being struck by Cryshal-Tirith’s beam of light, she fights with her last reservoir of strength to distract Icasaracht from unleashing her killing breath on the hundreds of people below. The undead dragon turns on her in an instant, bringing her own draconic weapons to bear, but somehow Aerihykloarara holds her own (Icky takes 79 damage and burns one of her Legendary Resistances to not be knocked prone. Aeri takes 80 damage and passes her save to stay aloft). She knows it will not last - she cannot last. But looking down on the frightened people below, she feels pride and purpose. She hadn't been able to save the people in the Hand of the Seldarine all those centuries ago, but here... She can fight, and every moment she endures buys the people here much-needed time.

Re: Easthaven

Meanwhile, the rest of the heroes smash golems. Lightning crackles and acid splashes, but above these is heard the rending of metal as these champions of the North destroy one of the hellfire golems and knock the other to the ground. And in spite of their injuries, all of them stand a little taller for the healing magic Ras pours into them (Ug takes 26 lightning, Al takes 30 lightning, Vince and Reo take 15 lightning. Also Al and Reo take 39 acid, and Vince takes 19 acid. All the heroes in Blue zone are healed 17 by Ras, if they didn't mark that down earlier).

For the first time, Merodach’s expression shows uncertainty. The pit fiend’s brow furrows in quick calculations, and then it turns to look across the battlefield and meets Zenithral’s gaze. The devil’s grimace turns to a wicked grin, and it hurls a fireball toward Zenithral (Zen, Natalie, and Ilmadia each take 34 fire damage, as do numerous other nearby people. This is enough to kill poor Natalie again). The world erupts into flame around the archer, and then Merodach turns and flies back to the temple ruins (Mero to red zone).

As the abrupt inferno dies away, the blood hunter musicians stand mostly unharmed with a pocket of other members of the army (they negated some of the damage to themselves and random people around them, so they take only 17 fire damage).

Re: Easthaven

The giants in the ruined Temple of Tempus notice the new intruders. Calling out to each other, the huge monsters fan out with weapons raised.

Halla clenches her fists and murmurs quietly to Maverick. "I will hold them off for as long as I can. Find the bag quickly, and do whatever it is you need to do!"

She steps out from behind a wall to meet the three frost giants. Their puzzlement at seeing a lone human woman, unarmed and unarmored, turns suddenly to surprise as her form grows into that of a giant crocodile. She advances on the one in the middle, but boulders slam in from either side, and an oversized axe smashes one of her reptilian eyes. By the time she reaches the frost giant, her crocodile jaws have lost their strength (Halla takes 85 damage and loses her wildshape). And then once more she is a mere human woman before the three towering giants - or perhaps only two giants, as a spell from Ilmadia across the battlefield reduces one of the giants to ash.

Halla nods quick thanks to her mother-in-law, then throws herself into spellcasting.

Then that big ugly red man comes flying into view over the ruins. And Halla is surrounded by big monsters... Jermsy finds himself conflicted. Is his fun possibly standing in the way of his friends winning this fight? He taps his chin thoughtfully.

Re: Easthaven

Round 7 Player Phase!!!!!!!

OOC:

Firstly, very first thing... Roll a DC 18 wis save against fear or be frightened by Icky! Those frightened by Merodach last turn are no longer frightened.

Okay, here's very brief sum-up of damage taken by the pcs last round:

Al - 30 lightning, 39 acid
Ug - 26 lightning
Reo - 15 lightning, 39 acid
Vince - 15 lightning, 19 acid
Ras - none!
Zen - 34 fire

Also, everyone in blue zone was healed 17 by Ras, so make sure you mark that down if you haven't yet.

As for other stuff, did you know that ancient dragons have a 90 foot cone breath range? So aiming from the sky down to the ground, Icky's got enough juice to hit a bunch of people in yellow, green, and blue zones with her breath weapon. The heroes would probably survive that once or maaaaybe twice. But about 70-80 damage to everyone else? That's a lot of death. So Aeri is trying to delay that from happening, but she doesn't expect to last long, as she only has 14 hp left. She and Icky are also 90 feet above yellow zone, so pretty far away.

You could also give instructions to the army. They're sort of waiting to know what to do. If they spread out properly they could avoid mass death from a dragon's breath.

Mav thinks he's got something to help with Icasaracht, so any assistance provided to him could be a good thing! If you trust him.

Maverick tries to keep his cool as Merodach flies overhead. "We need that spike! And we had better be ready for it. Rel, go warn Saki that it's almost time!" A sullen bat wriggles out from the gnome's beard and flaps back across the battlefield.

Then there is a slight thump, and Maverick looks down in front of him to see a bag lying there. Not questioning his good fortune, the gnome shoves his hand and pull out the black spike found on Jhonen's body. He immediately starts fussing with his robes, pulling out several more spikes identical to the one in Alalla's bag, as well as the necromancer's stone recovered from Kresselack's tomb so long ago, chanting as he works.
