Round 2 of 8

[ +- ] Status

Natrix flies to a more opportune location ten foot off the ground and fires off an arcane cone of ice. As with Lucian's lightning, the skull-faced fiends seem to be naturally resistant to its effects, but does have some effect on them. The large armored guardian again is rocked by the magic, though continues to stand upright and moving.

A purple mist swirls into existence to the south. A loud thunderous BOOM! emits from the vague humanoid form and can easily be heard by everyone except Killian and Leh'veia. A fiery object streaks northward, veering in midair as if it has a mind of its own, headed for the flying Yuan Ti. And the mist disperses.

A millisecond later, Natrix is hit by the streaking projectile in midair.

OOC:

Skull-face fiends damage from Cone of Cold (with resistance): #4 (1/4) 8 pts, #5 (1/2) 17 pts
Gunner damage from Cone of Cold: 34 pts

Natrix takes 19 pts. of thunder damage.
@annex, please roll a CON save (DC 17) failure results in Natrix being deafened for 1 minute, with the ringing in her ears.

Round 2 of 8

[ +- ] Initiative Order: Round 2

[ +- ] Status

Tajuri strikes both of the skull-faced fiends she is engaged with, but even though her attacks are both quite deadly neither is quite enough to fell the two.

Three of the six remaining skull-faced fiends vanish, then reappear within melee range of Lucian, Killian, and Radu, respectively. All six attack almost as one. The one now in melee with Lucian, takes two wild swings with its dark sword and neither are even close to hitting the young Aasimar. Angered by the reappearance of the hound after being vanquished a first time, the bloody skull-faced fiend brutally hacks into the new one with both its attacks. The skull-face attacking Killian manages to get through the Oathbreaker's defenses and slice a gash into his upper right arm. Appearing at an angle unexpected by Radu, the skull-faced fiend on him rips into the Dhampir twice. the northernmost of the skull-faced fiends currently strikes down Radu's echo and then takes a cut at Tajuri, but misses her as the Moonfolk Hexblade weaves her deadly flurry. Likewise, the second fiend on the beautiful, but deadly, Tajuri cannot seems to penetrate her defenses.

OOC:

@RageRed, I took the liberty of splitting up the two attacks for Taj. If you'd rather, I can apply it to the one fiend instead

The Hound 2 takes 29 pts damage.
Killian takes 17 pts damage.
Radu takes 36 pts damage (reduced to 31 for his necrotic resistance)

Even as his Echo reemerges, Radu cuts down his primary target with three swift swings of his Darklight blade, but the Echo has difficulty pinning down the second fiend and misses both follow up attacks.

The large armored figure in the south of the area holds its position and with a series of whirring, readjusts the aim of its primary weapon to unleash a loud hail of tiny projectiles in northeasterly trajectory, toward Radu and Natrix. In an attempt to catch Natrix in the air, the armored figure miscalculates and completely misses Radu. Natrix however, having already employed her evasive maneuvers against the earlier thunder rocket, it hits full on by the cloud of hot metal projectiles.

Natrix is hit for 14 pts. damage.

Feb 17, 2024 2:31 am

Kris curses as the creature shrugs off her last spell. Undaunted, she holds her hand forward toward the gunner guardian and points - weaving magic with an incantation, a bolt of lightning springs forth from her fingertips, blasting toward the creature.

As the magic leaves her, she dances across the battlefield to close on the same enemy, then slashes with her sword.

The large gunner guardian manages to move out of the direct path of Kris' lightning bolt, but takes some damage from its powerful jolt. As she closes and attacks with her scimitar, the young bladesinger misses but notices that the armored guardian's visible injuries are repairing themselves right before her eyes.

Instantly, a large portion of the northern section of the area becomes filled with a thick tangle of spider webs. It covers the floor, wall and ceiling. Partially obscured from view by this, Keltos' unconscious body rises off the floor and is rolled into a spidery web sac to hang upside down ten foot off the floor.

The body of the large scorpion-man de-materializes and vanishes.

Lucian's fiery orbs explode behind the skull-faced fiend in melee with him. The fiend's bloody tough hide seems to absorb most of the damage and it pay little attention to it. Instead, it attempts to take advantage of the young Aasimar's casting, but can't quite connect with its dark blade.

The hound attempts to bite its target again, but fails in its attempt.

The light emanating from Natrix increased when three other versions of her manifested around her. Their testers had seen through her invisibility easily enough but she had to try this tactic before pulling out her big gun.

Natrix flies toward the gigantic mass of spider webs, creating three duplicates of herself. Each visually is also stained with the glowing yellow substance. She peers into the mass and sees a humanoid-sized cocoon of webbing and sends a single word on the air in attempts to revive the cybermonk. It is hard to tell if she has been successful through the maze of webs and the latest attack upon her.

Again, a purple mist swirls into existence to the south and the loud thunderous BOOM! emits from the vague humanoid form. The fiery projectile streaks northward, veering in midair as if it has a mind of its own, headed for the flying Yuan Ti once more. And the mist disperses.

A millisecond later, Natrix is hit by the streaking projectile in midair. The attack seems not to be fooled by her arcane illusions.

OOC:

Natrix takes 33 pts. of thunder damage. The attack was a Crit which adds +16 to the damage roll.

The bloody skull-faced fiend battering Lucian attacks the young Aasimar sorcerer with a devastating combo of its dark sword, but as the first stirke is poised to land a powerful blow, suddenly Radu appears and takes the hit for him, then vanishes. The second attack does slash into the young sorcerer though, but he remains standing. His latest manifestation of the Hound quickly falls to the fiend's demonic brother and vanishes from the battlefield. The last remaining skull-faced fiend adjusts it stance and thrusts its dark blade twice into the prone body of the silenced and sacrificed bard, Leh'veia. Her body shudders once and goes limp and lifeless.
