OOC: Sorry Gurgun. DR means that no damage is dealt, and Stunning Fist specifically requires that a foe actually be damaged before it can work, not just struck. Your Ki Strike (magic) doesn't overcome it. :(
Authiel let flickers of flame dance on her fingertips as she desperately considered the consequences or setting fire to the webs.
"But we could all burn if I do!" she told Jorn.
"And we will die if you don't!" Jorn shouted back.
"Don't worry about me. I can survive a little magic." Iodaem explained.
But there was Allessandra, still cocooned in spider webs, helpless against the flames that would surely ravage her. The Lathanderite stared Authiel in the eye.
"Do it." she ordered.
Panicking, Authiel did the only thing she could do against the entangling webs, and held out her hands to release a jet of searing flames. She aimed as best as she could to avoid putting her friends in their path, but the billowing fires spread across the webs and consumed them hungrily. The wounded taers burned to death screaming in agony, unable to escape the fires.
[Authiel NPCed: Concentration 16, success. Burning Hands, fire damage 15]
Iodaem was dead in their path, and braced himself, tucking head under arms and ducking down, so that the flames licked against his back. The mithral chain he wore began to glow in the heat, and scorched him, though he had avoided their worst effects.
[Iodaem NPCed. Str 12, fail. Reflex 16, takes 7 fire damage]
But Allessandra struggled helplessly against the webs that held her tight, as the flames crawled ever closer.
[Str 13, fail.]
Jorn tried to wade through the webbing to escape the encroaching flames, but found his foot stuck fast.
[Jorn EA 5, fail]
To his horror, Gurgun's fists sunk deep into Savera's oozy pink flesh. When he withdrew them, her body reformed and she was completely unharmed. Already she was morphing back into the shape of a drow woman. She didn't even react as Slove sliced his sword through her, for the cut healed over too. The demon-drow laughed, cruel and mocking, as the mortals could do no harm to her.
[Slove: miss]
"Now you shall face the wrath of the Spider Queen!" Still laughing, Savera melted, her features running like wax until she formed a puddle of slime upon the glass floor. Where there had once stood a half-orc witch, a drow priestess, a giant spider and hobgoblin warrior-maiden, now she appeared in her true form, foul and hideous. She was a flesh-toned mound of slime, surrounded by a ring of writhing tentacles. In the centre of her shapeless form was a single huge red eye, ringed with eye lashes.
The tentacles lashed out in a furious storm of stinging slaps and hard strikes upon Gurgun and Slove, too many and too fast to block them all. Savera struck head, body, arms and legs, and left the warriors sore and beaten.
[8 tentacle attacks!
Gurgun: #1 attack 23, damage 5; #3 attack 31, crit confirm 31, success, damage 6, critical damage 6. Total 17 damage!
Slove: #5 to #8, attacks 26, 27, 26, 23, all hit. Damages 6, 8, 5, 7. Total. 26 damage!]
