[EBERRON] the Extraordinaries, 'A Terror Awakened, the League Reborn'

Calling up a Orb of Ice and Cold, Azreal fires off and strikes the ball of living Lightning. It hisses, cracks and fries, dimming for a second and then glowing bright and hot again… seeming to light the area around Azreal a bit more then the rest of the party…

Neville and Henry move in opposite directions to try and spread out away from the ‘thing’ and not allow it to get everyone at once. A tattoo on Neville’s arm glows slightly as the effects wash over him.

Fury strides back and fires at the lightning ball as it starts to move also, the first bolt going wide the second striking the thing but the bolt is defected and burnt to nothing by the very nature of it. Then the ball seems to stretch out and widen, part of it slams into Azreal while the rest strike the area around Bale and Marcus!1

Bale, trusting in Edana, stands his ground and strikes Magique'riser into the lightning… and there is almost an audible scream that echoes across the desolate plains!2 The lightning seems to flash and spark more and then is breaks apart and is dispelled across the area harmlessly!

Azreal and Neville – 15
Fury and Living Lightning – 14

2 Bale's attack roll 12 +10 (yep its magic!)= 22 a hit. Damage of 1d8+2d6+4 is 4+6+2 +4 =16 of damage! Dispel check, rolling 18+10 =28!!!

Well that was… unimpressive on the poor living spells part ;)

Neville jumps to his feet, as from nowhere his massive crossbow is produced and pointed into the fray. "Ha-Haaah!!" he yells, his face snarled as he has obviously steeled himself for a harrowing combat. His battle expression immediately droops into wide eyed disbelief as he sees no vengeful force of rampant magick before him, but instead Bale finishing his incantations.

He raises the point of his bow, and turns to his companions, eyebrows raised, and nodding as if in agreement with some unsaid commentary. "Well, then. Quite a good display there, Master Bale. Quite good." he says as he slings his crossbow and looks around at the condition of this group, straightening his sleeve once more, hiding the fact that the old man yet again feels just a little bit useless.
 

Retracting the springbow back into his arm even before the cackle of the electricity has left the air, Fury walks carefully around the area where the ball of lightning just dispersed. "Who would call such a thing onto this world? Is it a thing that must be ordered to attack, or does it do so of its own mind?"
 

Marcus, listening to the comments of his companions, dives out of the way of the electricity, recovers, and does the most instinctive thing he can as he thinks of answers to his companion's questions...he shoots. Finding he he is needlessly shooting into thin air, he looks around at his companions, a bit sheepishly.

"Sorry. I got carried away."

OOC: Reflex Save (1d20+7=18); Knowledge (arcana) (1d20+5=24)

Azreal, Half-Celestial Paladin/Warmage HP: 46/46 AC: 19

Azreal was uncertain whether his spell had done any damage at all to the creature. As electricity sparked all around him, he concentrated on keeping his actions and reflexes from jerking from the energy. Raising an eyebrow, Azreal launched himself straight up into the air, hoping to draw the attention of the creature away from the others.

OOC: Reflex save 19.
 

Taran Varnodel d'Phiarlan - Half Dragon Ranger/ Sorcerer

With an arrow already nocked and ready to fly, it takes a few moments to realize that the target is no more. An almost embarassed grin creeps across his face as Taran drops his aim and looks around. "Well that was good for a refreshening!" he calls to the others. Seeing the scorch patterns on Fury he moves to his side, while doing so he pulls the artificers staff from its' resting place. "I am not sure this will work but if it does...." with that his hand comes forward to tap one of the gems along its' length. Looking the warforged in the eye as best as possible, "As for the spell gone wild....I know not. But it would have seem to have had a malevolent sentience all of its' own."


OOC - After moving over to Fury, Taran will draw the Artificers staff and try an activate one of the Repair Moderate Damage infused gems on the Warforged. If it works I would ask that you roll, please Karl. I figure if not then it is still a way cool item to investigate for later.
 

(ooc: I will update when I know if I have taken damage: Ref Save 15+6=21. Hexblade ability of Mettle or Arcane Resistance, can't remember which one, cancels out any damage on a save vs. spells that result in half or partial damage.)

(occ yes the Living Lightning Spell is... dead, dispelled... something ;) sorry if I was not clear about that... Damage after Reflex saves -
Azreal takes 2pts of damage (save for half or 12 -10 electrical resistance)
Bale takes nothing (Mettle as I remember is the Hexblade ability)
Marcus takes 12pts of damage (make save for half)


As the ozone in the air seems to calm as the... lightning thing... is dispelled back to where ever it was from, the party regroups to check their wounds and to watch. It seems that a few of the strange silent cloud lightning that they have observed over the last two days are moving in towards their general direction... it might not be the best to remain here for to long...
 

Bale nods to Neville in acknowledgement of his praise.

'Thank you, Edana.'

'I can not do that often dear, but it seemed like a good time...oh, and your welcome.'

Amazingly Bale does not seem to have been touched by the living spell and waits for the others to be ready to move on.
 

Taran Varnodel d'Phiarlan - Half Dragon Ranger/ Sorcerer

With a lack of success with the artificer's tool Taran turns to the rest of his companions. "I am afraid this will need the touch of an artificer to work. Unless one of you may know a trick I have missed?" The last is said with a note of anxiousness. "But if not I will just pack it away since the sky seems to growing more dire every moment."
