Fallen Angel [IC]

If the fighter weren´t already there, Akaros would suggest to keep outside and let the bugs come to them. But now that he party started, he draws the sword, jump into the slope and lets gravity do his work.

Thomas is about ready to start his slow descent when he sees Akaros storming in. He holds until the big man has past him, and then starts down the chute, using both hands to make it down safely. He wouldn't want to take anyone with him on the way down...
 

Lomas will wait for all the others to clear the chute, then will try to slide down as gracefully as possible - but will not bother to put his shield away. At the bottom, he will do his best to put the fighters between him and the creatures.
 

Round 1

((Some of you may have caught the unfluffy update with just the results from the first round. Here then is the nice fluffy version. :D))

Syfis seeing that she is in danger out in the middle of the cavern with enemies approaching moves back towards the cave entrance and hovers above it as the others begin to enter a few feet below here. Pointing her wand at the nearest bug, Syfis launches a bolt of light which curles around the huge spear it is holding. Tugging on the strand of light, Syfis manages to wrench the spear from its grasp so that it falls to the ground 10 feet below the bug. (disarm 19 vs 11).

Riejar moves into the cave successfully balancing on the slippery floor by using his hands to deftly grasp the wall on the side of the cave. Having figured out where all the necessary handholds are to maintain his grip he easily makes his way down and into the cavern, drawing his sword and shield.

Thomas, seeing that the way is free, moves down behind Riejar successfully navigating the slippery slope he makes his way to the bottom where he readies his weapons. He takes note that Syfis is floating just above his head.

Lomas waiting outside can hear that the lightning is moving closer. No longer in a position to witness the strikes directly, he can see only flashes of light on the far side of the hill. The thunder rolls over him only a few seconds later. Imagining that the rain will come with the storm, he waits impatiently for everyone to make their way down.

The bug on the right scuttles across the ceiling towards the entrance. Stabbing down with his enormous reach (20') from the ceiling its hits Michael with it's huge longspear (11 damage). From a superior position it will be difficult to hit it.

The bug on the left however draws its club and moves down the side wall to the floor on the left side of the room near Riejar.

Michael moves up so that he is directly below the bug on the right and swings his sword up towards the bug. His sword, though long enough, glances off the tough carapace of the bug.

Akaros jumps down the hole landing solidly, weapons ready. Still on the move he runs over towards Michael and the bug there ready to attack as soon as possible.

If possible to still stay out of reach of the bugs:

"Lomas, get yourself down here!" The elf says bossily, with a hint of nervousness in her voice. That wound on Michael doesn't look too good, but he's had worse. She thinks as she watches the fight.

Syfis will attempt to fly down behind the fighters (but only as close to combat as she need to be), and use her wand of unhanding again on the left one again, calling to the others to stay out of its reach. If it's not possible to get out of reach, she'll remain floating midair, readying to use her wand if the bugs get in visible range.

OOC: 20' Reach? OUCH!

Michael curses loudly at the creature attacking him from the ceiling. He'll continue attacking, but aiming more precise now.

OOC: Drop the powerattack. Just trying to hit it now.
 

"Yikes! Syfis, watch out."

Thomas notices the creatures' long arms and moves away from the entrance a few paces. Moving in a position where he has a clear shot of the creature on the ceiling and is close enough to aim carefully, Thomas raises his bow and launches an arrow at the ogre-like bug.

OoC: Trying to stay within 30 ft. for PBS to work
 

Seeing Michael ingaged with the bug on the ceiling, Riejar feels that he has little choice but to attack that creature as well. He attempts to move into a position so that he is not in between the creatures.

OOC: If possible he will try to move into a position where he can , at some point during the battle, flank the creature he is attacking.
 

Akaros let loose a warcry; "Fire and blood!" shouts, and closes to the bug on the right [not charging, just regular move. If it can be flanked, then better.], ready to bring down the greatsword on it.

Lomas rolls his eyes and mutters to himself:
"Yes, mother. If everyone else would just get out of my way..."

Once the chute appears to be clear, Lomas will hurry down. He'll hold one side with his free hand and try to brace against the other with his shield. Speed will me more important than safety on the way down. He will then make sure the fighters are between him and the bug-critters.

When he has a clear view, Lomas will force the least-injured looking bug into psi combat using mode Empathic Multiplier +0 (net +7 attack bonus). Should that succeed, he'll follow it up with a devastating Recall Pain. Should psi combat fail, he'll instead use Ego Whip.
