The Undiscovered Frontier (Finished!)

Deuce Traveler said:

OOC: I'm counting the squares as 5 foot squares, so the corners will be just over 5 feet and fine for swinging, but would be like 10 feet if you were trying to move into it.

OOC: Queenie wants to place the fireball at N2, that would cover Y1, 6, 7 and 8 but will miss Arkos since Lealani goes before Akros.

Arkos takes advantage of the Yuan Ti's momentary disadvantage and one of the black tentacles lashes out at it. He then lunges forward unleashing the full fury of his tentacled form on the creature.

Mellisande looks around, and decides that if melee is to be joined, than her side WILL have the advantage. She lifts her voice again; a pattering glissando from tone to tone, ever increasing in speed until it reached a crescendo at the top of her range. The others felt a strange feeling come over them, as if their perceptions of time had been altered.

The world moved more slowly now, like a nightmare in reverse. The battle had just become easier.

(Casting Haste on the lot of us!)

Mellisande's voice is heard over the battlefield and something in the words makes you feel more sure and more aggressive in your attacks. You feel yourself moving quicker.

Arkos would have missed with his bite, but his quicker body allows him to snap his jaws on the yuan-ti in between his attack of opportunity and his stikes with his tentacles. The yuan-ti is pummeled, grabbed, bit and his neck broken before being tossed to the ground (Y1 dead).

The yuan-ti facing Nerin went through fireballs and swarms to reach him, but it is Nerin's blade that puts an end to him as the weapon buries itself in his shoulder (Y10 dead).

Nearby, Sarpot makes a similar quick end to the yuan-ti besides him, his enemy blades dispatching the creature that it is doubtful he ever felt his head leaving his shoulders (Y5 dead).

The yuan-ti trying a flank are noticed by Lealani, who tosses a bead their way. The explosion engulfs three of them , leaving them alive, but much worse for wear.

The three rush Arkos, two of them reaching him and striking out. Although the first attacker misses, the second hits home (-6 hit points vs Arkos).

Attack: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3919315/

Two attackers also beset Nerin, though his quickly moving body easily avoids their thrusts.

It's Sarpot who takes the worst of it, however. Seeing how nimble the party is in melee, the two sentries stop where they are, pull forth their wands of magic missiles and unload their volleys into Sarpot's back (-22 hit points to Sarpot).

OOC: Arkos gets an attack of opportunity against Y8.

Arkos continues his bestial attack lashing with tentacles and gnashing with teeth any yuanti that gets near or opens himself to attack.

Nerin turns to face his two new attackers. Nerin swings his sword but having to defend against two attackers misses.

1d20+10=13

Lealani uses the wand in her hand and blasts one of the yuan-ti's that is trying to flank Arkos right in the chest.

Magic Missile Damage (3d4+3=8) to Y8.

"Auch" Sarpot mutters as he feels the missiles impact on his back. "Better use some healing!" he retrieves the wands of cure moderate wounds and uses a charge on himself.

The yuan-ti that Arkos strikes with his attack of opportunity falls from a strong punch from his tentacles, breaking his neck. Because of this he switches targets to his second attacker. It's over in a blur of striking tendrils and gnashing teeth with the yuan-ti being unceremoniously dropped into a bloody heap. (Y7 and Y8 dead)

Nerin's own attack misses, though he is helped by Lealani, who sees that Arkos has his enemies under control and switches targets. Her blast ends the life of an enraged female serpentine enemy. (Y9 dead)

Sarpot is able to heal himself moderately, feeling the worst of his wounds knit themselves, though he turns to face his assailants. The yuan-ti guards look ready to attack him once more with another volley.

OOC: Sarpot healed himself of 13 hit points of damage. Mellisande is up and then the remaining Yuan-Ti. I'll give one more day before finishing the round up.

Mellisande shifts her tune, and glimmers of light surround her hands. She flings those hands out, catapulting the strange shifting masses over to the guards with the wands where they burst in a blinding explosion of mad lights!
