Re: The Game: Chapter 13
In reply to Keef (msg # 848):
Both of Boreas's blasts slam into the creature, causing it to hiss in pain. Keef's blasts of lightning cover Zuriel's careful advance, but the searing bolts of reddish light yield no reaction whatsoever beyond surprise and irritation.
The Warden rears up on her snake-like tail, takes a deep breath, and spews a haze of purplish gas everywhere (literally everywhere -- it's a 100ft cube and you're on a 50x50 platform).
[Fort(ZMBKL): 29,22,22,23,16]
The putrid gas leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouth, but nobody looks worse for the wear except for Lyriel. The cleric coughs violently and her skin takes on a deathly pallor.
[Damage (Lyriel): 6 CON]
The violet haze immediately begins to dissipate, its work completed for the moment.
The creature then looks down at the paladin, smiles, and wraps her arms around him.
[Improved Grapple vs Zuriel: 48 vs 34]
The moment the grapple succeeds, she coils her tail and twists her torso, leveraging a tremendous amount of tensile force to bodily hurl the paladin off his feet, off the platform, and into the abyss.
OOC: You were thrown 30 feet behind her, which puts you 20 feet beyond the back end of the platform. You would have landed prone on the ground, but since there's no ground to land on you are merely free-falling. At the time of this round, you are precisely at platform-level height... but you won't stay there for long.
"And then there were four," the creature sneers. "Turn back, or share his fate."
To punctuate her threat, she lashes out at Lyriel with a flurry of attacks.
[Attack (Lyriel): 35,24,31,28]
[Damage (Lyriel): 60]
The cleric goes down in a torrent of blood and pain (-6 hp).
"Three. I will not warn you again."
