[LPF] Borric, Nathan, Sylvain, & Zelena

[Songdragon]

At hearing of Syl's explanation of what the creatures were Zelena motions to Borric, "Quickly, let me see your flail." She calls upon her goddess' powers again, "Let the power of the Goddess of Light and Good give this weapon the power to defeat these foul demons!"

(Cast Align Weapon (Good) on Borric's Flail (Duration 8 minutes)

[Sblock=OOC]Only cleared it up, somewhat. I still don't know if Borric's actions are valid for Round 3. If they are for Round 4, I guess that is okay by me too.

This delaying foes actions to intermingle in between ours sort of defeats the purpose of group Initiative, btw. If you are going to let that happen, then you might as well go to Individual Initiative instead. It will be less confusing.

For the record, with only three people I am fine with doing Individual Initiative (with all foes on their own counts too). I think our pace will be the same either way. And then it will add a bit more to the tactical situation. [/Sblock]

 

[GlassEye]

With the ease of much practice Borric uses his flail to hook the babau's feet and drag them out from under the creature. It falls with a sibilant squeal and almost drops its spear. When Borric strikes the creature again the flail cuts through slime and hide though the wound doesn't seem nearly as grievous as expected.

GM: Combat Round Four: Borric & Sylvain are up (Zelena cast align weapon this round).

Borric Hawkins, Male Human Fighter

Borric continues taking powerful strokes with the flail, the electricity crackling around the spiked head. He tries to quickly finish off the tough creature, but the skin appears to be tough. He alternates smashing the creature and taking out its legs to keep it down. He is making good progress, but not fast enough to kill it quickly.

"I'll have this one taken care of soon, what about the other one? Syl, you got something that will delay it until I am ready?"

OOC[sblock]Can Syl make out either or both of the enemies now? I'd assume with Borric smashing one, Syl can find that one at least.[/sblock]

 

[GlassEye]

The creature's hide is tough but Zelena's aura of goodness placed on the weapon enables the weapon to cut deeper than Borric's previous attack. The electricity dances over the babau's hide with little effect. Sylvain, still to act, glances about: in addition to the one Borric is pounding (well within the circle of light put off by Borric's ioun torch) he sees another babau lurking at the edge of brighter light cast by Zelena's floating torch.

GM: Combat Round Four: Sylvain is up.

[Gerald007]

Syl continues to keep his luck blessings focused on Borric, hoping the warrior could contain the devil he had cornered.

Meanwhile, he attempts to deal with the other threat. He could think of nothing less threatening than a little cricket that Waltor could chew on for a while. He attempted to force the devil into that particular shape.

OOC: Free action--none, move action--cackle, standard action--cast Baleful Polymorph. DC 21 to avoid the effects.

[GlassEye]

Sylvain taps into a dark reservoir of elemental magic and casts his baleful polymorph. As the magics encompass the babau the creature seems to melt and reform as a much smaller creature. In his mind Sylvain can hear the creature shrieking its dismay but that cuts off as even its mind is reformed by the magics.

The babau tied up by Borric's attacks attempts to scuttle to its feet but Borric takes advantage of the movement and again lays into the babau causing it severe damage. As the creature begins to use its ability to teleport away Borric uses his greater reflexes to strike again. The creature crumples lifeless to the ground.

Silence falls over the spire battleground.

GM: Combat over. I'll get xp updated asap.

Borric Hawkins, Male Human Fighter

Borric looks down at the creature he just felled and gives it a nudge with his foot.

"Well, that's that, I guess. You two think there are any more out and about?"

With the precarious position atop the structure and nothing but drops all around, the idea of exploring by the traditional methods doesn't appear likely. But with apparitions that can fly and demons that can teleport, the fighter is a little uneasy about things.

"Hmmm. It occurs to me that we are a beacon of otherworldliness standing here. But I for one am not in favor of putting away our illumination for a second."

"However, any exploration we do would have to be by flying. And I am not sure if that would be too safe."

Borric puts mageslayer away after no further attacks appear to be surprising them and takes a close look at the body by his feet.

"Boy, the sage didn't lie, did he? That was a heckuva welcome. First devils that I've fought as far as I can remember. Good job to both of you on handling them. Wish I could have caught that cricket for Waltor though. He could have chewed on that one for days!"

Syl looks around and nods at Borric's words. "Flying looks like it will be required. I can fly for several minutes, but it'd be nice to find a good landing spot before it happens to wear off."
