Epic Problem : Prevention

[sblock=Minathiel] Anticipate Teleport, sorry, you'll appear next round and do the action you stated for this round.[/sblock]

[sblock]Yeah a calculated risk. Discounted the Dragons casting ability. Course with Lochlan taking a beating, instantaneous transport seems pretty damn slow[/sblock]

(Waiting on Pyrex+Shayuri)
OOC: Also, Pyrex, unless you have Neg. Energy Resistance from something you're at 531 damage (His sword overcomes your DR, sorry should've pointed that out).
 

Finally noticing the plight of Lochlan, Athearkepeskorn flaps mightily to join that fray!

"See if you can knock him from Lochlan's steed!" commands the great dragon, and Rhodia nods, gathering celestial radiance around her hands as she focuses on the dark knight...then releases the energy in a great, howling lance...a shaft of white light that sears the eyes and leaves an afterimage behind!

(Using a Repelling Blast (Ref DC 24 to avoid knockback), both Maximized and Empowered. Damage is 99+(15d6X.5) +34 ranged touch to hit. Caster level +33 to overcome SR)

Athear himself goes for the great black dragon, aiming a blistering tail strike at the creature's flank as they whicker past.

(+64 to hit, 2d6+50 dmg, power attacking for -10/+20, total of +59 to hit and 2d6+70 damage.)

OOC2: Weird. I thought I had added that in. Dam/HP: 531/617


~Round 3~

Reeling from the powerful series of blows, Lochlan directs Zephyr to get a little distance while he takes a moment to channel divine energy to salve the worst of his wounds.

OOC: Zephyr performs a Withdraw action, Lochlan uses Lay on Hands for 450hp.

Islo Round 3

[sblock=Initiative]
Silver Dragons
Minathiel
Lochlan & Zephyr
Dark Dragon & Warrior
Silver Knights
Mary
Dark Army
Athear & Rhodia
White Dragons
Tharivol & Xialanet
[/sblock]


The Silver's and White's continue tearing into each other, one pair falling in a death tangle, though the white's superior numbers seems to have been more than cancelled out by the Silver's prowess, Aided in no small manner by the Uplifting song of Mary, who's voice continues to strengthen all the goodly forces, now focusing in on the party. Another white falls, and one of the Silver's who'd fallen earlier leaps back to the air, it's wing healed by its rider.

Minathiel Reapears beside the Dark Dragon, his sword coming down with all his Celestial force to gouge great holes in the dragon's hide.(2 hits, 118,123), but these do not come without a penalty. Dark energy courses back up his sword with each blow (18 damage of each element per hit, he resists the fire and is immune to the Electricity, leaving Acid, Sonic, and Cold 36 each) . Lochlan and Zephyr use Minathiel's timely appearance as the opportunity to escape their powerful foe and regroup.

With a snarl, the Dragon turns on Minathiel, ripping at him with its gigantic claws(2 hits, 20 damage, 23 damage) attempting to bite him in half (Miss), and finally swatting him with it's Powerful tail (45 damage). Meanwhile, the Winged Warrior points a finger at Lochlan+Zephyr, and a twin blast of dark energy springs out from his hand, striking both of them (83 damage each). He then shouts incoherently at the heavens, which begin to darken.
[sblock=Mary] Since you understand the Words of Creation, you recognize what he shouted as some form of the evil version, Dark Speech[/sblock]

The Silver Knights and Dark Army below continue their battle, Mary's song helping to turn the tide against the badguys as the Knights begin advancing, still singing for their king, and more fireballs shoot from the tower, joined shortly by a small group of Mages flying out.

Athear flies towards the Dragon, Rhodia Blasting the Warrior with all her energy, obviously injuring him, though he doesn't move from his spot(134 damage). As the great Silver flies past the Dragon, he whacks it on the back, though it ignores him in favour of the Archon (75 damage, doesn't beat DR).

Xialanet continues flying to the gate, meeting up with the Silver Knights as they begin their advance. (Run action)

Current #'s (Combat Effective):
Lyrevan Knights - around 280
Dark Army - ~1600
White Dragons(Large, probably young Adult) - 21
Silver Dragons(Medium-Large, probably Young/Juvenile) - 13

Distances(Relative to gates to keep things simple.) : The Dark Dragon is 800' from the gates, Athear and Minathiel close by. Xialanet is 200' from the gate, Xephyr/Lochlan are about 700 feet from the gate(100' from dragon).

*OOC NOTE : Don't forget in addition to the +12 Str, Con, and Cha everyone's got from Mary's song, Athear and Xialanet both have +6 Hit Dice (d10s), +6 Competence Bonus on Attack Rolls, and +3 Competence Bonus to Fort Saves from the music. (wow, go super-bard)

Also, all damages are taking into account any DR and Energy Resistance, I'm pretty sure I got it all.
 


Shayuri said:
(we got +12 to Cha too? Nuts! Rhodia's DC's are +6 then! Duly noted though...thanks!)
*NOTE: Happened on Mary's most recent Turn, affected Athear and Xialanet (Plus riders) on round three, everyone else will get it for round 4 and on.*
 

Despite the damage taken from the dragon, the celestials face remains serene. Only when he notices the condition of Lochlan, does concern show on his face. He changes his grip on his sword slightly, his stance takes a more balanced edge and he swings.

[sblock]
Continues to Full Attack, reducing power attack to 15. Apparently the dragon has some sort of damage reduction Minathiel is not penetrating... I am assuming you are applying the 15/adamantine Damage Reduction to the dragons attacks.

AC: 60
HP(current)/HP(Max): 561/730
Additional Defenses:saves: Fort +64 Refl +48 Will +53 Evasion, SR 39, Immunity to Electricity and petrification, DR 10/Evil or 15/Adamantine, Fire Resist 30

+64/+59/+54/+49 (+20 BAB, +32 Str, +6 Enhancement, +9 Morale, +6 Luck, +1 Competence, +1 Feat, +5 Epic, -1 Size, -15 Power Attack)
3d6 + 99 (+48 Strength +6 Enhancement +6 Luck +9 Morale +30 Power Attack) Damage is Epic, Magic, Adamantine, Good and Lawful for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction

Aura of Menace: DC39 Will save to the dragon (the rider will probably be out of range, 20' radius) or take a -2 to Attack, AC and Saves[/sblock]
 

~Round 4~
Lochlan casts Heal Mount on the heavily wounded Zephyr, knowing that another such strike would knock him from the sky.
