After his strike hit and the obvious otherworldly experience, Fin curls in on himself screaming. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" It's obvious that he's not coping well with whatever is happening.

The wicked blow splits his target and leaves the flesh cauterized and twitching as he looks around at the other assassins, daring them to approach.

Swiping two more charges from his belt, a dark spell is cast almost instantly and he gives a slightly evil laugh before spraying acid toward the couple to clear a path, seeming to enjoy the pain it causes even as he chokes on the spray slightly.

ooc: I'm in a rush so I apologize now if I miss anyone or any particular detail I should have! I am literally about out the door so I didn't get to proof read this but I figure a rough post is better than making you wait again. Next round folks!

Stefan: You do indeed get hit with the full brunt of the red lightning and Raina cries out in concern for you, asking if you are alright. Fortunately though it hurts you are still functional and what's more you didn't drop your passengers. Raina hurls a purple fireball at the cloud in retaliation and to your surprise it begins to rain a red substance that looks alarmingly akin to blood. The lightning crackles again...By now you are close enough to try to attack the cloud but you had best be ready to dodge...ooc; attack if desired plus another reflex save

Tanzy: Some of your blows hit and some miss but you are slowly whittling away at them. In the meantime your ghost appears out of nowhere, intent upon helping you. You are able to shake off the poison but by now another enemy has neared enough to slice at you and grazes your shoulder with his blade.

Raknesh: Most of your attacks hit and by now a couple of them lie dead and the others are not looking well. Still, they are a determined bunch and there are so many of them you don't know how long this is going to work out...

Bryon: Your rest is to be short lived for more white skinned enemies are near and they are starting to shoot black tipped arrows at you...During all this you notice a young boy of about 8 with these newcomers. He looks wide eyed and stressed but surprisingly calm otherwise. At seeing the halfling in distress he rushes to him, quite unlike any child you've seen to plunge into danger so. An arrow nicks your thigh.

Fin: Jett looks at you with concern and Halek rushes to your side. To your surprise, the enemies nearest you have stopped fighting you and instead seem to watch you expectantly, albeit uncertainly. Fin! You've got to fight him! He's trying to take over! This is your chance Fin, you see how they're watching you? They sense him inside you! You could try to control them! He sounds both eager and desperate.

Meanwhile Prizzard is wreaking havoc all around. He decimates his first foe and his presence seems to shake nearby enemies to the point they hesitate before approaching. His acid spray hisses and sizzles as it meets with flesh and it is enough to drive many warriors back. Fearing this dark man they decide a new tactic is in order and ready their bows...

Everyone: During all this you will notice that Fin is freaking out, Halek is trying to help him, Stefan is being attacked in the sky by red lightning and the cloud is now raining blood. You know, just a normal day right?

Fin looks at Halek both confused and worried by the thought of whatever this is taking control of him. "How do you expect ME to control them" he asks meekly.

Drawing back his hood, he laughs a bit more heartily while looking around at the shaken assassins. Suddenly he disappears in a blur of spell movements and words followed after a pause by a gaping wound appearing on another assassin roughly 35' closer to the couple.

rolled 28,13,41 using d20+21,2d4+9,9d6. Attack/Weapon/Spell.

Raknesh noticed the strange situation around Fin, and more importantly in his perspective, the fact Halek was very close to some of those strange soldiers.

He knew the boy was far from helpless, but he also had a strong feeling that he would be very much needed with their quest. So putting himself in danger was not a good thing to do.

Doing his best to move toward both of them, he fired some arrows, not as many as before.

ATT 1: 19 DMG 20 (arrow 11, fire 6, holy 3)
ATT 2: 22 DMG 22 (arrow 13, fire 3, holy 6)
ATT 3: 18 DMG 27 (arrow 13, fire 5, holy 9)

Tanzy was thankful her ghost was willing to lend a hand. It was nice not to worry about him getting hurt since he was already dead. Flashing a smile she shifted to a flanking position and came around for another attack.

(Sneak attack)
attack 1: 31 (16+15) Damage: 13
attack 2: 20 (10+10) Damage: 16
attack 3: 20 (15+5)  Damage: 15
attack 1 off hand: 26 Damage: 16
attack 2 off hand: 11 Damage: 11

Halek shakes his head at Fin's attempts. You've got to try harder! If you can keep him from taking you, you should be able to call them off! They sense the darkness within you and know now they should leave you unharmed. They will listen to you if you can just concentrate! As he speaks you can feel your grip on your body growing weaker... ooc: Maybe try that again ;P

Meanwhile the fray is going strong. Prizzard is making quite the dent in enemies already and the foe he attacks nearly buckles in shock at the hit he takes. The archers try to hit this blurred man but they miss. However, Jett takes quite the blow, an arrow striking his chest though fortunately not a mortal wound yet. Tanzy and Raknesh are both doing well, though one of Raknesh's arrows miss as does one of her attacks.. In the meantime a warrior slashes at Raknesh as he nears Halek and Fin, striking him across the thigh. Tanzy takes a nick to the shoulder blade and Bryon, your husband takes an arrow to the side. During this you find you are growing dizzy...

ooc: Next round please!

Stefan continues to wing forward with his riders at maximum speed, only slowing to attempt to dodge the red bolts that come flying at him.

OOC: sorry for the delay, reflex saves for last round and this round.  7 for last round and 14 for this round, reflex is not something red dragons do well

14:03, Today: Stefan Aruello rolled 13 using 2d20 with rolls of 3,10. +4 reflex saves.

Bryon felt terrible. "Whatever this is they are using, I do not like it one bit. Althol you will have to devise some defense when we have our victory." After which she fires off another acid cone...

15:30, Today: Bryon rolled 21 using 6d6. Damage.
15:30, Today: Bryon rolled 19 using 1d20+8. E blast.

Wincing slightly as he felt the blade, Raknesh continue to move toward this goal while launching arrows and dodging blades.

The warrior who wounded him barely had the time to regret it before a bright flash when one of the arrows hit him.

ATT 1: 32 DMG 27 (arrow 14, fire 4, holy 9)
ATT 2: 27 DMG 19 (arrow 9, fire 4, holy 6)
ATT 3: 21 DMG 26 (arrow 14, fire 2, holy 10)

With a rather strangely-pronounced word his steps can be heard moving inhumanly fast for a distance before another wound and crack of lightning strike much closer to the couple.

Making sure she remained in flanking position Tanzy attacked again.

Stefan, you are being hit horribly by the lightning and Raina grips you in alarm both out of concern for you and in an attempt to keep from falling. Loden unleashes arrows at the red cloud but they don't do much good. Fortunately Raina has stronger stuff available and she hurls an enormous ball of white light at the thing which finally causes it to dissipate. You need to land my friend she informs you firmly. As she talks all the forms that were falling from the sky start to disintegrate into disturbing chunks of bloody flesh and bone, landing in disgusting heaps on the streets, harmless now where they would have been soldiers seconds before. There are still enough black clad warriors on the ground though that the city still has its hands full.

Meanwhile everyone else does quite well in the fray. Raknesh's arrows take out his foes as he makes his way to Halek who looks pleased to see him, still looking at Fin worriedly. Fin, you are losing your battle to the darkness inside and the world starts to spin as you grow dizzy. You are starting to black out but to your shock the boy Halek rushes at you and begins to slap you hard, across the face. It feels unnaturally painful and you are stunned that he should have such strength. Raknesh, you are nearly as surprised by this. I won't let you release him Fin. he growls.

Tanzy is a whirlwind of motion though she misses from time to time. Unfortunately you also take a nasty hit in the side but you are still up and your ghost defends you vigorously.

Prizzard is by now quite close to the couple and has wreaked a proper amount of destruction along the way, avoiding enemy blades in doing so.
Bryon, though a bit worse for the wear, hits her targets with ease though her spouse takes a wound to the collarbone during this time.

Everyone: During all this everyone notices the warriors are starting to gather around Fin and Halek. The boy is striking the halfling determinedly as the thief quivers and shakes. Something is happening and if the enemies are this interested it cannot be good. Meanwhile you see the dragon above has been successful in eliminating the cloud and all the foes that have been raining down on the streets suddenly become naught but flesh and bone, falling to the ground in disgusting heaps. The whole city is a bloody mess and though you are grateful not to have new numbers added to the fray there are still enough residual battles going on to keep your hands full.

ooc: Sorry if I missed anything folks. Still trying to get back into things! Next round.

Stefan, drips blood as he continues to power through the air towards his goal, one large slitted eye rolling with his head to look back at Raina.  "Get me  a few seconds to heal myself, and we can keep going.  We need to hurry and end this before more innocents die."

OOC: double move again

Move: 70' closer to couple but the jist of it.. and Artemis may want to determine the concequences before other people post too soon, as I'm high on the initiative order today..

Attempting to mix Prizzards odd blue energy with Call Lightning, a spell-like ability from his Dragonpact. Well.. got a NAT1 on the concentration roll. Now I'll go roll 'secret' rolls and let Artemis determine the outcome.

Swift: Belt of Battle for full-round action
Full-round: Attempt Call Lightning combined with divinity, First bolt targeting Fin
Standard: Second bolt targeting enemy nearest the couple
Move: 70' closer to couple

The slap seems to jar Fin's senses as looks around at everything still unfolding. He looks a little encouraged despite the pain the boy inflicted. "Tell me what to do." he says almost as a whisper.

Bryon reached down and touched Althol, "Going on a trip baby, hang on for the ride."

Use Flees the Scene to take herself and Althol into the middle of the circle and provide reinforcements.

Noticing the gathering of soldiers around Halek, Raknesh became a bit more worried.

So he hurried toward them, launching arrows a the gathered soldiers as he moved.

ATT 1: 29 DMG 21 (arrow 12, fire 4, holy 5)
ATT 2: 30 DMG 25 (arrow 9, fire 6, holy 10)
ATT 3: 34 DMG 27 (arrow 16, fire 3, holy 8)

Stefan: Raina gives you a pat and tells you to take your time. Now that the cloud is gone we need to focus on the enemies on the ground. Find the biggest clusters of them and take them out. she instructs. As you look around you see there are plenty to choose from. There are still hundreds of enemies in the city even with the cloud destroyed. ooc: Go ahead and make a ranged attack if you wish, or whatever method you desire of course.

Everyone else: Prizzard attempts to call forth his strange power and you all watch in shock as a bright blue light seems to emanate from inside the man, bursting out of his eyes and skin until it is almost blinding to look at. Prizzard, you feel an intense energy so fierce it is crackling your skin. You feel as though your very veins are on fire and your heart is beating so rapidly it is shaking your body with effort. Prizzard!!! Halek gasps in horror. You have drawn too much, you know that now. You feel something warm running out of your ears, eyes, mouth, nose, even the beds of your fingernails. Blood. Everything goes black. To onlookers it is a very horrific scene and you all watch in shock as your friend falls to the ground, limp. You don't know if he's dead yet but he certainly looks it.

Halek turns to Fin frantically. Command them to stop! Hurry! he cries, scrambling towards the fallen Prizzard. Meanwhile Raknesh's arrows hit their marks though Jett is looking worse for the wear and to your great concern Halek is slashed across the side as he makes his way to Prizzard. He cries out in pain but turns with a look of fury and raises his hand towards the foe. A blue light similar to Prizzard's shoots out of his hand and hits the soldier who then instantly breaks apart into a heap of ash.

ooc: Next round, Prizzard you are at -9 hp so you are out of the picture for the moment. Raknesh you'll have made it to Halek by your next round.

Bryon, still dizzy from the spell, tell Althol, "Help them, my love."

The blood pouring from his body turned onto electricity upon contacting the air, as usual. But with far more blood having also need charged by the hungry blue energy, his body erupted into a storm before he fell to the ground. His body could be heard sizzling for a moment until the bleeding slowed to a stop. Everywhere that had bled was left with a lite caking of yellowed blood and electrical burns.

Shortly after, his pseudodragon lands on his body, tail raised like a scorpions and electrified fangs bared in a hiss at any nearby enemies. It would seem the sorcerer lives, for now.

Pseudodragon has a sting attack readied for the first enemy that approaches, if any.

Mustering all his courage, Fin yells at the enemies pressing in around them. "STOP THIS AT ONCE, I command you... Drop your weapons and stop this senseless fighting." He then takes a moment to see if his words had any effect.

"Bloody hell" Tanzy gasped seeing Prizzards disturbing lightning show. It was obvious that something had gone wrong as the man fell to the ground. "That's not good," She muttered. With an easy backflip she tumbled away from the enemy and moved towards Prizzard hoping to take attention away from Halek.

tumble 33

Stefan continued to fly forward but rather then spouting further flame on the horde below he speeks in the sibilant hiss of draconic and positive energy rushes through his body, closing many of the wounds the red lightning inflicted on him as he continues to wing them towards Raina's destination.

Cure Critical Wounds for 36 damage, and a move action forward flying
