[QUOTE="Rhun, post: 3337129, member: 29098"] Sandor knows that his advantage against the lizards is with the range of his spear, and so he presses that advantage as he stikes again, ready to sieze any opportunity that presents itself of other opponents moving through the arc his spear can reach. What would have been only a glancing blow is supplemented by the increased strength of Sandor's enlarged form, and a spray of gore erupts from the wound his spear tears into the blackscale's stomach. Seril sends another pair of deadly arrows arcing into the combat, and although the first missile misses its target, the second penetrates the lizardman's throat. The creature crumbles to the ground, trying to breath as it chokes on its own blood. Seeing that Zeddicus is gravely injured, Helios pulls out another, now familiar wand. He points it towards his wounded comrade and and in a clear voice intones, [COLOR=Red]"Psike!"[/COLOR]. In response the earthen floor appears to rise up around around the psychic warrior creating an encircling wall of stone. [COLOR=Red]"Abel, don't just stand there. Make with the heally-heally!"[/COLOR] THe remaining lizardman jumps back away from the stone wall, turning his attention to Sandor. [COLOR=Yellow]"Already on it,"[/COLOR] Abel says as he draws his healing wand to aid Zeddicus, trying to stay out of reach of the lizardmen while he's occupied. The priest uses the enlarged form of Zeddicus to screen his approach, and taps the warrior with the wand as he nears. With a gasp of frustration, Talshia realizes that the it's just too hard to target the beasts while they're ducking and jinking in battle with her team. A spell is needed, but which? Ahh...yes. Illusion was not her specialty, but it had some useful incantations...She cautiously moves off to one side, conscious of her spell's spreading effect and careful not to get too close to a lizardman's club. When in position, she incants as she brings her hands to her mouth to form a cone...as if to shout through. Instead, she blows. A spray of intensely brilliant colors explodes from her hands, showering dazzling, constantly changing light over the lizardman. The effects of the Color Spray were highly variable, Talshia knew. Some were overcome by the spectacle, some merely distracted. And with an effort of will, it could be ignored. The blackscale proves a susceptible target though, and reels back, blinded and staggering from the blast. Zeddicus moves forward, and easily finishes off the beast with a series of powerful double-handed chops of his blade.
