Re: (IC) 2: Search for the Seals
Combat - Round 4
Gar held his hand up, letting the spell flow through him, and saw immediate results as the dragon's movements looked as if it was underwater. The frustration could be seen on the dragon's face and with a sneer, it looked around trying to find the source of that frustration.
Thorn rushed to the north of the dragon, loosing her chakrams with deadly accuracy, each of them slicing deeply into the dragon's already mutilated flesh. The dragon tried to react to the onslaught, but its limbs didn't cooperate. A look of surprise, followed by realization, hit the dragon and it angrily let out an earth shattering ROAR.
Sel'zir moved into a closer position, while Aisling quickly closed the distance on the other harpy, letting out an ear splitting screech of its own. The din of battle making it much harder to concentrate. Though the harpy, through it all, could still be heard singing, seemingly unaffected by the stimfay's cry.
Giltris disposes of the harpy with expert efficiency, it's body twitching once more before it lays forever still. She jumps up onto Harmony and makes her way towards the thick of battle.
Althaea weaves her hands into an intricate pattern and then rests her hand upon her chest, the healing magic flowing through her.
The five creatures in the center of the battlefield continue to stand around, completely transfixed by the bright colors they saw from Althaea's spell.
The crossbowman to the North, continued his assault down on Althaea, but the bolt went wide, landing with a thunk in the dirt behind her.
The crossbowman to the South, seeing the large spider working its way over and seemingly an easier target, lets loose a bolt that slams into the stone debris in front of it, missing Sel'zir entirely.
The other crossbowman further to the South, shoots at the oncoming Aisling, but the shot was way off landing somewhere in the far distance outside of the keep.
The two enchanted humans with missing flesh, seeing the weakened Althaea, each swing wildly with short swords. The first, just about to land on Althaea is parried by Alaric, but the second is able to hit, the sword digging into her leg.
The Harpy, frustration on her face as the dragon's poison gas made her song ineffective, leaps off the ruined walls and flies in a beeline towards Aisling, swinging a large bone with flesh still hanging off of it. The bone doesn't connect and so the switches direction and heads towards the spider now in view. The claw is able to connect, raking across the hairy flesh of the spider.
Infused blinks in and out of existence, reappearing next to the green dragon, passionately swinging his flaming blade. The first one connected with a mighty blow that left the exposed flesh of the dragon charred. The second swing, just manages to break the scale barrier of the dragon, sinking deep enough for the flames to sear the now large would on the creature's back.
The green dragon angrily looks around, trying to find the source of its decelerated movements. Seeing the Tortle casting a spell while blindfolded and facing a wall nonetheless, and the multitude of random creatures about, sudden realization hits the dragon. With a vicious looking sneer, it launches itself up forty feet in the air, (not before the warforged is able to cut deep into its flesh), at an angle in order to catch the myriad of possible familiars of the spellcaster. Hovering, it lets loose its breath once more, raining down poison gas onto the spider, the mechanical bird, and the owl flittering about.
Sand, just able to clear his head from the harpy's song after the dragon's breath hit him, another similar song tries to wriggle its way in. However, this time Sand was prepared for the mental onslaught and was able to fight off his would be captor.
Alaric focuses and centers himself, healing magic flowing through him as well.
Dragon is slowed by Gar.
One harpy killed.
Althaea gains "X" HP back from Cure Wounds.
Four skeletons and one enchanted creature still affected by the hypnotic pattern.
Sel'zir takes 4 points of slashing damage.
Assuming that Sel'zir, Aisling, and Lyn don't have enough HP to resist the dragon's breath, they are all down/dead.
Althaea takes 7 points of damage from one of the enchanted humans, the other of which was blocked by Alaric.
