[QUOTE="Kelleris, post: 2048232, member: 19130"] Narine: [sblock] Just to interpret - Ilmordan made the Reflex save, but still took damage, assuming it wasn't negated by electricity resistance of some sort. I also forgot that soft cover doesn't provide a bonus to Reflex saves, but that's really only relevant to Illira's description, as Ilmordan still made the save. [/sblock] [U]Illira:[/U] You've worked your way partway under the Sheets, but you suddenly hear a momentous crash while looking up to Narine and shouting your warning. Looking back into the crawlspace, you see that the wooden floor of the ship seems to have melted down into the ground, forming a cluster of needle-like wooden spikes blocking the path. They look pretty flimsy, though, if you could bring a weapon of some sort to bear on them, ten feet away and in an enclosed space. You could probably kick them out, too, with a little more time. The feasability of this would depend on how long the other last, though. [U]Ilmordan:[/U] With the smell of ozone suddenly dominating the air, you are unable to smell Ilmordan's obviously scorched robes, but it is evident that the attack has galvanized him into action - he raises a hand from the robes, of a nasty bruise color under translucent flesh, and makes a brief gesture. Greenish energy crawls around and through his hand in a way suggestive of worms devouring a rapidly-decaying apple. Narine: [sblock] Your mind is struck by sudden vertiginous sensation, causing you to stagger hard against the railing. A chaotic tumult of sinuous muscle and pulsing liquids surround you for a moment, further disorienting you. When you come back to your senses, there is a residual pounding agony, distinctly reminiscent of the aftereffects of a [I]mind thrust[/I]. The implied threat is clear: any resistance on your part will be met, blow for blow. [/sblock] [U]Mobs 3 & 4:[/U] The mob of filthy commoners bears down on you, swirling around you in a chaotic mass. They're no longer attempting to coordinate attacks or even specifically attack [I]you[/I]: by sheer numbers they're smashing everything in the area. The mob will act more like a swarm now, in a roughly 30-foot radius around you. Anyone on the ground must make a DC 12 Fortitude save on their turn or be stunned for one round. Any damage you do will now be reflected by significant reductions in the crowd's numbers instead of attenuating their attacks. Oh, and the whole crowd goes on 12 now. Cagthail, I took the highest damage from your AoOs and applied it to the mob-swarm. Don't worry, they're not immune to weapon damage like an insect swarm. :) {Cagthail takes 7 damage from the abuse, Feiran 6, and Illira 3, because she has some cover, being partway under the Sheets and behind everyone else.
