[QUOTE="Isida Kep'Tukari, post: 4189354, member: 4441"] OOC: Sorry, the DM's been pulling overtime and it's faster to respond to the games I'm in than post to the games I'm running. Anyways... Lupaz darkens the very air around him with fear and nightmare shapes, and the already-shaken saberwing takes one look at him and starts shrieking in pure, unmitigated terror. Valerian takes the more direct route, and flips himself behind the nearest saberwing, bringing himself in line with Lupaz, and channeling fire into his weapon as he does. Beacon of Dawn slams down across the saberwing's back, fire erupting from its deadly points. With a shriek of tortured glass, the creature falls into shards at the illumian's feet. The frightened saberwing, terrified both from Lupaz's curse and the death of its companion, flees into the shard-filled air above the Malestrom. The remaining saberwing takes one look at the situation... and flees with its companion. Despite the victory, both Lupaz and Valerian can feel more blood pouring from their wounds. Around you Captain Merri and the crew of the Khora Aisa are frantically making adjustments to the sails, following the bellowing directions of their captain. The deck lists slightly as you hit the outer edge of the Malestrom; the captain is apparently using the whirlpool itself to slingshot you through the worst of it. Nissa, who has seen one or two oceans and ships in her time, realizes this is an insanely risky piece of seasmanship. Either he'll get you through in time to intercept [i]The Pungent Shrew[/i]... or you'll be sucked down into the heart of the churning glass! The remaining saberwings on Trebuchet and Nissa's side of the boat also take to the air, but unlike the frantic winging of their companions, these more heavily wounded saberwings are preparing for another stoop. A mad red light shows in their eyes. Both Trebuchet and Nissa see them wing out of the way, and hold their attacks. At the top of their dive, they scream defiance at you and power towards the Khora Aisa with the speed of a thunderbolt! Not loathe to help with the defense, Valerian and Lupaz join their friends. As the saberwings close, Trebuchet erupts in thundering shout that rumbles through the crystalline saberwings. The two previously hurt by its magics explode into powder at the touch of sound, while the third continues unabated, insanity and fear in its gaze from the Hound's aura. At the same time, Valerian and Nissa reach out for the final saberwing. Valerian's spikestick skitters off the saberwing's slick skin, but Nissa's gentle touch proves more potent. The saberwing crashes to the deck, water running from its mouth. In a few more seconds, it drowns. In the sound of your triumph, the clashing of glass grows louder, and you can see you're picking up speed as the Khora Aisa starts to scream around the edge of the huge, deadly whirlpool... [sblock=OOC]Saberwing 6 fails his save and flees on his turn. Valerian hits with a 23, doing 35 points of damage and killing saberwing 5. Saberwing 4 says, "screw that noise!" and blows this popsicle stand. Saberwing 1 and 2 begin to climb back up in the air to make another attack run, moving 60 ft up this round and turning.
