Round 4
He comes out and aims to hit as many of the goblins as possible, the two ladies follow and aim to destroy the goblins too.
Great Cleave! The goblins next to Baahir and one next to Andrei fall in piles of ash.
One of the women notice Andrei is on his last legs and yells something in Ignan. She rushes up and says in common, "Go! Go!" Moving to take his place as he can retreat from the onslaught.
+6
The woman circling around the goblins shouts out in Ignan, "Cold iron!"
Round 4
She follows the four others through the portal before it collapses. Then she pulls an arrow and shoots it at the big demon.
"What is it weak to? I need to know this to fight it appropriately! Knowledge Planes!"
Round 3
Thorn has reached his allies even as his lips incants yet another prayer or bargain to his fickle goddess!
Round 4
His magic lending him swiftness beyond belief, Thorn crashes into the first goblin like creature he sees as his mace with a faint glimmering form his previous blessing aids his swing.
However it seems just as his fickle goddess had answered his pleas, he was sure her laughter was echoing from somewhere else as his swing misses by a wide margin....
Round 4
Aramyros didn't understand what the elf was saying. He was in his Abyssal frenzy and focused on his archenemy. Seeing Blaze join the fight, he stepped past Andrei to getter into an advantageous flanking.
While passing the demon he got a good look at it.
Not sure what it was he brought his scythe down on it again.
Round 4
At Pharasma's door, Andrei weakly retreats from battle. "Şâve..Lîl..îânne!"
Trembling, the varisian holds his holy symbol and prays for some healing.
Claws rip into her side. Flesh is pulled away and gobbled up by the horror. Her vision blurs, but then fire erupts and Baahir has healed them.
"Thank you, Baahir!"
Now, her vision is clear. Her blade moves once more to slash into the beast. If only it were made from cold iron.
Blaze translates Nima's answer shouting in Common and then Abyssal. "Cold Iron, Nima says it is weak to Cold Iron."
Continuing to speak in Abyssal she spoke to the demon.
She gathers power and infuses her blade to spread it's flames to whatever it touched.
Round 5
Round 4
Noticing his attack on the demon was negligible at best, the varisian took a leap of faith that his other companions would be better equipped to handle the large monstrosity, so Andrei went to support Thorn against the other smaller monstrosities, attacking the white demon goblin.
Round 5
The demon shrugs and tells you all telepathically, then in abyssal and crude common physically, "I will be back for more flesh!"
With that he is gone, only a small wisp of smoke and some ash left behind.
The three goblin demons that are left continue to attack those around them. Aramyros armor holds up to the goblin's bites but Andrei is barely armored and the fire and teeth wreck havoc on his body again,
Baahir charges in to swing at one of the goblins, slicing it with his cold iron scimitar! It is hurt but not destroyed.
Round 5
He walks up to the next easy target... and slices it into burning ash.
The women try to get into positions to give flanking bonus.
With that he is gone, only a small wisp of smoke and some ash left behind.
If he didn't cast defensively, I'd like my Attack of Opportunity, please :)
Lilianne
Blaze
----
You make the demon lose his spell then he lauches up into the air 30 feet. But as he leaves, his gaze is upon those within 30 feet from him.
All living creatures within 30 feet must succeed on a DC 18 Fortitude save or gain a negative level.
Round 5
Andrei proves backup for the ignan ladies who joined the battle. the cleric attacks the purple demon goblin, as they have nearly surrounded one of the fire maidens.
Round 5
After slashing the casting demon, Aramyros grunts angrily at the fact that the enemy flew away.
Its demonic gaze has no influence on Aramyros, though, and Aramyros counters the starring contest.
He drops his Scythe and readies his Longbow.
Then he draws an arrow and waits...
Round 5
Lilianne doesn't hesitate to stab the demon as it flies off. As it pulls itself off of her blade, she yanks downward, hopefully, harming him enough to drop him, but as she does, she stares into its eyes. Within, she can feel the life attempting to drain from her, but she resists.
Not missing a beat, she will rush around behind the tent in order to gain a flanking position with Aramyros. There, she will strike at the (red) Goblin.
Thorn feels something leave him as his life essence is drained from him.
In anger his hand reaches for a non descript ball from his belt and he tosses it at the demon.
Blaze gathers power again quickly and the flames surrounding her begin to swirl in a vortex beneath her feet. Then she shoots upward in pursuit of the demon, propelled by a jet of flame beneath her feet. As she reaches the apex, coming within striking distance of the demon again, she manifests her fiery blade and strikes one last time before falling back to earth and landing in a heap.
Round 6
The demon does indeed seem to cast another spell... Which you might be able to spoil as well. But then it just continues to fly...
Meanwhile the goblin demons continue to attack.
Round 6
Andrei continues his assault on the demon goblin attacking the ignan girl, cursing himself that he didn't pray for any spells that could harm outsiders.
Round 6
The demon does indeed seem to cast another spell... Which you might be able to spoil as well. But then it just continues to fly...
1d20
Round 5 continued
At the hint of the demon's try to cast a spell, Aramyros lets loose his readied arrow.Round 6
As the demon flies away, Aramyros sighs. In Abysaal he shouts "Get back and fight!
Meanwhile he addresses the immediate threat and picks up his scythe . He then slashes through the goblin in their midst.
Blaze regains her feet and launches flames at the twisted goblin standing closest to Lilianne.
Round 6
Round 6
The goblin seems to be surrounded, blasted by fire and each person slashing away at it. Her exceedingly long blade swings upward to fool the goblin into dodging to the right, in which case, then she brings it down upon his head.
"Hey, Blaze! Don't you singe my hair!" she laughs, obviously feeling better now that she's been healed and is getting to fight. All the while, her eyes are darting to Andrei to make sure he is doing okay.
Round 6
Thorn holds back seeing his companions dealing with their last foe. He was more in favor of looking to see if the Demon would be doing anything else.
Round 6
Lilianne feints the demon goblin and slices deep into its shoulder it is not blinded. Blaze hits the same red goblin as Lillianne, her flames dropping the twisted form as it burns out leaving a pile of ash where it stood. Its cry for life is painful to the ears but quickly ends.
Aukan steps forward with his greatsword above his head and moving forward he aims to cleave down the shoulder of one to hit the leg of the other...
Aramyos hits the fleeing demon but can see that it did not stop it from fleeing magically as well. Picking up his scythe from the ground the demons both quickly turn upon you, but are struck down by Aukan. Andrei misses and flops in his attack provoking an AoO though the demons are but ash now.
Baahir waits and asks the group, "Another channel as the threats are dealt with?"
The demon was a bloody mess as it flew away.
Round 5
Aukan takes down another of the twisted demon goblins.
Lilianne's strike does not seem to strike anything special leaving a small wound. Blaze misses with her burning blade. Aramyros hit leaving a small wound again.
Andrei strikes the goblin but to no effect though giving a flanking bonus. Aramyros readies to shoot at the fleeing demon should it cast.
Thorn feels something leave him as his life essence is drained from him.
Round 5
Blaze misses with her burning blade.
Blaze takes a step closer and gathers power, infusing her ranged blast to light her foes on fire.
Round 7
Round 7
Andrei pivots to attack the yellow goblin demon.
Round 6
Thorn shivers as his life essence is taken from him, even the ordeals of getting thrown about in time doesn't compare to this.
Andrei runs to Lilianne. " Âre you âlrîghţ?! Âre you hurţ?!"
The demons turn to ash after the vicious unleashing of her party members. If she had come alone, surely she would be dead right now. In fact, how did Blaze get there so fast? Did she see a portal open? She shakes her head to clear her thoughts as Andrei runs up to her.
"Thank you, everyone,"
It is clear by the slashes in her armor, clothes, and straight through to her undergarments that a strong claw had torn deep into her flesh. A great amount of blood had spurted out at one point, yet now all that can be seen is her beautiful skin underneath. At his question, she looks to her wounds to see them fully healed. Her hand will tug to the left and right of the holes to better view herself underneath.
"I'm fine...are you doing okay? I saw you were hit pretty badly there...," she asks with subsided concern in her voice, as he clearly is not bleeding to death.
She will sheathe her blade after cleaning it and will check him over to make sure Baahir's last channel of healing did not leave anything open. Her hands and eyes view the clothing where the bloody gashes were once flowing.
Andrei looked at the gash in his clothing and found healed flesh. "Ìt lookș lîke âye hăve â loţ țo mend before Deşnâ vîșîțș." The cleric gives his beloved a strong embrace, then asks the others, "How îz everyone elșe?"
He slashes his greatsword away from the group to clean it mostly. Then he walked back to Nima and Pharos checking on them. At Andrei's question to the group he offers, "We three are fine, they are healed. I am glad to put some demons away with my new sword. Is this a goblin camp?"
She begins searching ignoring the talk. Looking for anything to give a clue about the demons and if any goblins survived.
The portal closed once the four of you rushed through.
In another minute or so, another portal opens nearby and Ethos runs through it with blade in hand apparently ready to fight. Seeing no fight he calms down and sheathes his sword. Walking up he waits for someone to talk to him.
Blaze briefly takes stock of herself, "I am unharmed. Thanks to you." She said with a smile to Baahir. It had been risky to pursue the demon into the air, the fall could have hurt her much more badly than it had. But much like Aramyros, she'd been determined not to let such a dangerous foe escape. "I fear we will see that one again, though."
Blaze put a hand on Lilianne's shoulder. "I brought down a deer, but it would not have been worth losing you. You did say to 'bring all', yes?" She said with her lopsided smirk. "I did my best. Ethos is in camp, still holding portal, mebbe."
"I am glad Sarenrae's blessed healing could prove useful!" Baahir says graciously lifting praise up to his goddess. "Yes surely it will stalk us, though it might infect more goblins first."
"Should we just burn the place down?" He asks the group seeing the mess of the place and smelling the reek.
"Should we just burn the place down?" He asks the group seeing the mess of the place and smelling the reek.
"We could do that." Blaze said, while still surrounded by the aura of flame from her Elemental overflow. She opened her hand and an open flame stood on her palm, ready to use if they decided to go that route.
Aramyros' frenzy cools down and you see some calm in his metallic face. He breathes heavily and some shiny fluid, probably blood, runs down his foot coming out of his armor.
Still slowed by his fatigue, but not bleeding any longer, Aramyros walks around and searches the tents and debris.
Under a pile of blankets he gets surprised by a sole goblin that quickly runs off. Though he left some nice looking weapons behind, which Aramyros brought back to the other. "This club and mace look nice. Too nice for a simple goblin?"
As he keeps looking, he finds another goblin hiding under one of the tents. This one doesn't back down and run away..."Goblin!" Aramyros shouts towards the others in Abyssal and draws his scythe.
He tries to corner the poor guy and threatens to cut it in half.
As Aramyros begins to look amongst the rubble of the camp, some may follow him. Aukan was curious as always and began to walk along looking to see what contraptions they might have had.
At the sound of the running goblin he shrugs his shoulder leaving it up to Alia or Blaze to cut the worthless being down. At Aramyos shout he would slowly walk up with his greatsword. Likely not getting there in the first round.
She pulls an arrow and shoots the fleeing goblin.
The arrow plunges into the goblin's chest and it drops.
The goblin under the tent wiggles a bit more under the tent and snears at Aramyos.
Nima and Pharos would stay near the group not looking in the filthy mess called a goblin camp.
A small chuckle will escape her at Andrei's joke, and after the embrace, she will pull away to look around. A smile and a nod is given to Blaze.
"I'm sure we will. He didn't look too healthy though. Maybe he will die of his wounds? At least we'll eat well tonight...and..." she nods toward Ethos as he comes through. "It seems not. Perhaps he can help?"
Turning to Ethos, she will give him report and also tell him in which direction the demon flew. It wouldn't be hard to follow the blood trail for a while to know which direction he went, and with teleportation, surely Ethos could catch him. Her task is the camp though, and she salutes and continues to work now.
Lilianne is first encircling the camp, getting the lay of the land and then spiraling in toward the center firepit.
At the same time that Aramyros calls out toward the goblin, she manages to spot a goblin hiding in ash. In a swift flash, she draws her blade, she quickly plunges it into the dark soil where it appears there is nothing. A moment later, through gurglings and pain, she lifts out her blade to show a skewered goblin still attached. Whether it is dead or not, she isn't sure yet.
"I don't think we need to burn it down just yet, Aukan. Some of these might escape!"
She will thrust it off her sword into the dirt.
Ethos nods at Lilianne's report. "Following another's teleportation is tricky. The sooner you clear the goblins the better now. These are likely at fault for summoning it. Giving souls to become demons themselves. But first a reward. Finish clearing the site and burn it." He states walking around the camp to find a stone wall behind some ivy. He slashes the ivy clearing the path and pulls out his black blade. The door opens on its own and he enters. Light glows from the tunnel.
A cold iron longsword of the golden dragon.
A harpoon of snaring.
A cursed adamantine short sword of viciousness.
A crystal dagger of venom.
A cold iron warhammer of the deep.
A silver scimitar of keen edges.
A dragon fire forged great axe of execution.
He is writing in a book and the red script is written and quickly fades.
Thorn doesn't join in the others in searching the camp as instead he looks for the course of magic. Perhaps he could find something that may give a clue where the demon came from.
Hearing the others shout about a goblin, he looks up to see an arrow skewer it. He wasn't needed here. Instead he tries to see if he could find a goblin to interrogate.
"This goblin is no imminent danger. I say, we take him prisoner for questioning. He might know something about the whereabouts of more goblins. Afterards we can feed him to the spiders."
Aramyros grabs rope from the tents and ties the goblin up.
With a strange feeling, he follows Ethos into the tunnel. "Ethos, you found this hidden tunnel fast. Did you know about it?"
Once they reach the vault, Aramyros carefully investigates the weapons. Witch his finger he softly touches the scimitar's and the axe's blades and compares the sharpness to his scythe.
"These Weapons are magical, but I can't determine what most of them do."
