and please don't tell me that's really a terratomorph (single nastiest creature in the first 2 MMs)Serraphina hits the ooze creature interposing itself between herself and the girl. But the spikes seem to have only a minor effect on its liquid form. Worse yet, the chain begins to quickly dissolve upon impact. The hybrid lycanthrope manages to flick her weapon back before it becomes completely useless, but it is badly melted.

OOC: Serraphina's a pretty tough customer, but yeah the party isn't ready for epic encounters. I'm starting with encounter level 18 stuff, which I hope will be challenging but not insurmountable. And no, its not a terratomorph, although its about as nasty as one![:]](http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png "Devious :]")

."I warned you! But it seems you did not listen."
In a burst of speed, Karnak grabs Sigil by her cloak and hurls her to his left. He then tumbles around Arhaux while drawing his daggers and then begins to rain blow after blow on the hard metal skin of his mecha.
[sblock=OOC]Karnak initiates the mighty throw maneuver on Sigil and throws her to F12. Touch Attack=36,Dexterity Check to beat=24
He then moves to D17 tumbling at his full speed to avoid AoO's from Arhaux. Tumble Check=50
Afterwards he uses 3 charges from his horned helm to initiate Avalanche of Blades against Arhaux. Btw, I need to know his AC if I am able to pull this off correctly.[/sblock]

Noticing the commotion behind her, Serraphina thinks a growl back, "That simply won't do!" moving away from the acidic ooze thing and turning her back to the wall, blinks her eyes at Karnak, dispelling the evil to leave his mind.[sblock=OOC]Use spell-like ability "Dispel Evil" on Karnak[/sblock]

As Lord Karnak turns on Sigil, she engulfs him in eldritch energies, but without apparent effect. Undaunted, the warrior grabs the faerie princess and, using her own weight against her, tosses her to the other side of the passageway. In a blur of motion, Karnak then spins, landing three quick blows before Arhaux's mecha jets out of the way. Each of the hits penetrate her armor, the most powerful of the blows causing a small electric flash of light.
The girl looks surprised by Karnak's actions, but apperently just stands there.
Arhaux aims a series of swipes at Karnak with the flat of her naginata but fails to connect.
The ooze slides forward, carrying the girl. A dripping psuedopod forms from the creature, swiping at, but missing Serraphina.
Serraphina, ignores the attack for now to bathe Karnak in a beam of cleansing celestial light from her eyes. But it is unclear at this point if it has any effect.
------
Meanwhile, back on Karnak's ship, one of the valkyries nods in acknowledgement of Melanoce's command. "We will comply Citizen Melanoce. Better to destroy the enemy ship than to risk further corruption of our liege."
[sblock=Melanoce]though it may be moot now, you do receive several replies to your request for a bomb. Without extensive bargaining you can have one immediately delivered for 13,500gp. Although you get the impression that by jumping through certain hoops you could get one for free.[/sblock]
[sblock=Sigil]Though Sigil is knocked prone by the throw, she doesn't have to expend a move action to get up if she flies.[/sblock]
[sblock=Karnak]The telepathic connection drops when Serraphina uses her dispel. Karnak feels a terrible sense of loss, the connectedness of the link was both intimate and euphoric.
One of your troll followers contacts you over the Psiweb, "My lord, I'm in weapon bay. Melanoce sent some message. Right after, Groga and Throg (fellow troll crew) opening bomb safe. What me and Moruk do?[/sblock]

"Know that they will only be used if it proves necessary. But with the survival of Eschaton on the line no price is too high to pay for victory."
Melanoce begins modifications on a couple of bombs to reduce their blast radius enough that an explosion by the mirror's sensor wouldn't kill the party on the enemy ship. She keeps the unmodified bombs on stand-by, ready to be launched at a moments notice.
[sblock]
Would the bombs on board the ship be sufficient to destroy the pseudonatural shipcreature completely (not just blow it apart but completely vaporise it so that no parts are left to possibly spread its contamination? If so Melanoce doesn't bother to get any more from the outside. If not she begins to jump trough hoops. (what would that entail, exactly?)

Serraphina snaps her fingers and her crackling chain vanishes (free action), then without giving her back to Karnak looks at the adnvancing mound of sizzling ooze with the many-limbed mouth inside as she raises an accusatory finger at them, focusing her own considerable mental energies. "BEGONE!" rips into the minds of her enemies, reverberating as only a true mental command can.[sblock=OOC]using spell-like ability "holy word" to send them back to their home plane. And the ooze took 1 con drain as well from the chain strike.[/sblock]

With a grunt, Sigil lands in a rather undignified way on the soft, organic floor of the tunnel. Scowling, she rises back up from that position and hovers several feet off the ground.
"Wake up, fool! Throw off whatever control this creature has put on you and help us! WE are your allies, not her!"
She then winks out of sight in a little spray of sparkles.
(Using flight to rise from prone. Using Defending Dagger to add 4 to AC...AC is now 33, 24 touch. Activating Retributive Invisibility, which is basically Greater Invis that does damage if it's dispelled.
