Heroes, Inc. : Rasheman

OOC: This is a bit confusing to me. Is Marco fighting from the inside out or outside in? I assume the Thayans are the ones holding the high ground and have used the flaming oil on the resistance fighters. They are reluctant to press the attack and not drive the resistance out because of Marco's missle weapons. Am I reading this correctly?

Obviously we come upon the scene from the inside out. Are we on the same side as Marco or behind the Thayans?

You are correct on all counts. You are behind Marco's men.

ooc:
Is it possible to send Kayla asleep for a day using either Telepathy or Greater Command? That would be long enough to remove those quills I think.

Nope, sleep in DND is always ended by damage, if it is technically sleep

hmmm. How about a command along the lines of "Don't wake up for a day." barring that, they should have some sort of drug on hand to knock her butt out long enough to operate.

OOC: And so are Shando and company?

The first doesn't work. Regarding the latter plan, you don't have anything that, considering how weak she is, will work without risking harm, but you can safely get her most of the way there.

ooc:
Alethia will cast ease pain whenever it seems like it's getting too much for Kayla and if she or Naverone can, they'll use their Telepathy abilities to block the pain as much as possible.

 

[Hawkeye]

Yes.

So the Thayans are holding the gates for our way out?

Timrin reigns Heironimous in behind Marco and his men. "Looks like you could use a little push?", he shouts jokingly. As he and Dyria dismount he says, "Gebereth and Khalid are dead but the Thayan army presses your brothers in the fields beyond. We need to stamp out this nest of vipers quickly and secure the walls."

"We can charge into the teeth of their defenses if you can cover us from the ground. We'll get you a foothold for you to bring your men up behind us. Agreed?"

"Anything we should know about what we face up there? Wizards or other nasty tricks?"

"Hey, Kayla," Alethia says, settling down on a nearby chair, close enough to touch her in order to cast the necessary spells. "I'm not going to lie to you, this is going to be rather unpleasant to cut those quills out."

"We can give you something make you drowsy, to make the pain seem far away, but we can't knock you out completely. Any drug strong enough to do so will strain your body, which is already weakened considerably. In addition, while he is cutting out the quills I will be casting a spell called Ease Pain, which does exactly as it is called, when it gets too much for you." she paused and gave Kayla a bit of water.

"Also, I and Naverone will be doing our best to block the pain with our telepathic abilities. I'm not real familar with this, so Naverone will be doing the majority of the blocking. It'll be alright, just trust us, okay?" she said encouragingly and nodded as an aid placed a potion rack beside her, with a variety of coloured liquids within. She picked out a bluish colored one a proffered it to the Witch. "It tastes vile, I'm sorry."


Alethia looked at her fellow priest. "Ready my friend?" she asked, hands glowing with a familiar silvery light as Kayla's eyes glazed over, the drug taking effect.

As she called on the ease pain spell, pure-white, nearly incandescent flames began to flicker over her body and as Devan cut out each quill embedded in Kayla, the flames spread out, licking at each open wound the quills leave behind, visably healing it.
