*Conner will fly into the temple.. keeping in the shadows as much as possible.... and do some searching.... looking for anything that doesn't seem to fit......*
 

<<well, only their surface thoughts. Ok, ok... I will have to do that... >>

Kip steps out of the body of Nameless and moves about hidden looking for someone that appears to be a city guard.


[ooc: leaves Nameless, is still ethereal, looks for city guard to possess but not take control, When I leave Nameless' body he is going to have to hide and sneak for himself.]
 


Kip tries and tries, but he can't seem to possess even one of the city guards, it seems strange that this is so. He doesn't detect it's from a magical protection of some kind...so what could it be?

Meanwhile, a blue, transparent wave of light surrounds the atmosphere, raining down across the land, disappearing only moments after it arrived as it sparkles down to the ground.

Seconds before it washes over him, Mysliwy vanishes, leaving Xert and Melchiah alone together in the field.

Conner feels his presence on this Material hold, and even bind. Kip finds himself whole again, and lands softly with a thud to the ground. Several city watchman begin to circle around him, looking neither curious nor surprised. Indeed, they seem happy, joyful, even.

Melchiah floats above the ground as the earth ruptures around the glade, creating fissures in the earth, Xert manage to steady themselves versus the Earthquake, but that's all he does within those crucial six seconds.

They find themselves besieged from an invisible force. Melchiah notices it came from the sky, a fierce creature made from roaring winds descends and attacks the arcane angel with unnatural speed. (13 damage) (1 GEE, 10 ft. above Xert)

He's got his own troubles, though, from underneath him, four elemental forms appear, surrounding his sides, two of them large, and two of them huge. One of the larger ones manages to get a minor blow against the halfling (9 damage after DR). A pair of large arms attempts to get a hold of Melchiah, but he manages to retaliate, hitting it with his claw bracers (18 damage) (GEE below him and #1-2 HEEs, and #1-2 LEEs, 10' around him)

From below Xert, 4 more elementals appear, surrounding him, 2 large and 2 huge. They attack the angel with fierce might, dealing glances blows left and right. (All 4 hit, 0 damage from the large EEs, reduced from 44, 39 from the huge ones) (#3-4 HEEs, and #3-4 LEEs around him)

Combat begins :)

Nameless finds another alley and changes to a human wearing clothes that would look 'normal' in the city. He then heads for a tavern or inn and starts listening for rumors.

[I'm not entirely sure you handled the surprise round right, since they didn't know I was there (didn't have a visual, termorsense doesn't work) it looks like either they moved and attacked, which is only possible in a charge, but how can they charge something when they don't know where it is? Just PM me in #ir.]

Connor, Kip, Nameless, Angel, what was that blue light? It didn't affect me, as far as I can tell, do you have any idea what it did?

Connor, Kip, Nameless, we have trouble at the glade. Nothing we can't handle, but just in case reinforcements show up, is the town safe? If so, give me and the Angel a quick description of the location where you are now.

Pathetic! Did you sad elemental critters think you could ever overwhelm a respected citizen of the mightiest plane in excistance? You are but cattle, slaves, to be used at our whim! Tremble before the awesome power of Baator!

Angel, focus on the Air Elemental; the groundbased ones can't threaten us once we have established aerial dominance! I'll lower its resistance to spells.

Melchiah flies upwards out of the reach of the Earth elementals, 10 feet above the Air Elemental.

[Should they take AoO's against him (and miss) he'll say As if you could even hope to hit me! Grovel before your master!]

He then manifests Lesser Metaphysical Weapon at the defensive on one of his quivers of arrows.

[I'd like to know the Alignments of the Elementals. Further, I'd like to regenerate 1 HP. The Aura of Despair affects the Air Elemental. And your beasties have to make a DC 27 will save because of the Fear Aura (you too Xert).]

[And what is the difference between Mecurial Longsword and a Medium sized Golden scythe, except that the scythe has better damage? Ok, except the scrit range :p.]

[Shouldn't it be a GAE that attacked Xert? And please don't post that on mouseover stuff, it's really frustrating that you know it's there, but you're not supposed to look at it! Something like "Do not wave food in front of the hungry..."]

It was possible, OOC, you do not know how, IC. Xert is currently surrounded on all sides by large/huge elementals, which would make getting out for him tough.
 


I didn't notice any effect upon me by the light. Right now I'm in an alley, heading to see if I can get some information in a local tavern. So far everything looks fine.
