2nd Melee Round
1st Attack of the Melee Round
Kalista springs into the air with grace which is almost super-human. Her telekinetically augmented leap carries her far. The branches of the soul tree cover almost the entire graveyard, however, with an invisible canopy. Some of these branches hang low. The cyber-knight finds her journey interrupted by a large limb hanging only ten feet or so off the ground towards the middle of the graveyard. She is now standing on that limb. The good news is that the Soul Tree is no relation to a Wollaping Whillow or similar. It's limbs are strong and articulate, but the smaller finger-like branches are under its full control.
Doc continues to saw at the strands of the magic net. He can feel the net fighting against him, but it seems to be growing weaker.
Ethan experiments with using his power offensively. The results are inconclusive as the net stretches and bends under his influence but does not break.
The protecting wraith with the sword takes another stab at the captives inside the magic net. This time, the blow is accurate. The wooden blade pierces the net and slams against the force field within. The sword, however, snagged the net resulting in an unimpressive amount of damage inflicted. (13 points)
Nyx feels his arm go numb. He draws a pistol with his remaining good hand and levels it at the wraith who is trying to break through.
The last protecting wraith observes that his magic paralysis technique was more effective than the lightning strike -- if infinitely less cool looking. It repeats the same Paralysis: Lesser incantation almost exactly. This time, it targets Doc instead. Save vs Magic please
Arulas comes to halt, laying on top of Polkatain. Polkatain issues his proclamation.
The Soul Tree mumbles another quick incantation. This tree can articulate a spell as fast as any Elven spellcaster that Arulas has ever heard. A mass of wormlike tendrils form from underneath Polkatain's back and wrap around the hatchling's body. The tree has cast Armor Bizarre on the dragon.
Samuel lets off the trigger on his energy weapon for a second. He observes that the magic net remains intact but is visually burn and frayed looking. In recognition of the natural twenty rolled against the Carpet of Adhesion spell, I'd like to give Samuel a minor bonus here. Sam is the least immobilized of all the captives regardless of this saving throw, so simply negating the effects of a CoA doesn't help Sam much. I am open to suggestions.
