The Crux of the Matter

(OOC: That would have been 7 more Damage yet if you hadn't rolled a 2 to confirm ;) If you take down Wrath, that will be the third target you defeat in this fight ;))
OOC: Then I'll be Lust's favorite! :uhoh:

Rinaldo moves to Ashnar and grabs the body. Looking at Vanitri, he hopes that will go well for him, but he knew that staying here could be too dangerous.

"Gluttonery, are you still hungry? Prepare to get some magic in teh face, hogarth have prepared a spell just to get rid of you."

Hogarth move down the stair until he see the three aspects. he stop and prepare his Dispel magic, readying to counter Pride's magic.

[SBLOCK=OOC]Vanitri on Wrath, Gluttonery, I hope, will ready a dispel magic and waste his time, and Pride will see his spell dispel by Hogarth... that could buy us some time.[/SBLOCK]
 

Tenebrynn will stay near Laynie, she doesn't intend to fly higher up the tower. She has very little offensive magic left (1 sparkstrike...).

ooc: Do they know where Sin is preparing? I'm thinking of casting Clairvoyance to check on how long we have.
 

(OOC: @Erekose--The door to Sin's rooms are open, but the door to her closet is closed. She can't see the closet door from here, but Tenny knows where it is)

*Rinaldo moves to Ashna and grabs the body, while Hogarth readies a Counterspell against Pride.*

*Meanwhile, Laynie walks all the way back down and out of the protective area towards Vanitri and Rinaldo.*

*Wrath unleashes all the built-up energy, except the electricity. The force energy fires off at Tenebrynn and misses, while a piercing cut shoots through the air and stabs into Vanitri.*

(OOC: Vanitri takes 8 Damage)

*Then Wrath tries to touch Vanitri and jolt him with the electricity playing across her hand, but her attack is incredibly clumsy and telegraphed, and Vanitri dodges. Still, she holds the charge for next time.*

*Gluttony prepares to counter Hogarth's spell. Then Pride fires off a Fireball at Hogarth and Tenny, and the world explodes into motion! First, Pride completes her magic and the fiery core of the ball begin to curl and sizzle her fingers and then soar out towards Hogarth, then Hogarth directs his dweomer down towards the incoming Fireball to counter it, then Gluttony begins her azure vacuum of dispelling energy to consume Hogarth's spell. The upshot is that somehow, Hogarth's Dispel manages to burst through Gluttony's counterattempt and dissipate the Fireball before it can explode.*

(OOC: Tenny, then Vanitri, then Rinaldo)
 

[SBLOCK=OOC]Now he got Ashnar, is there a way for Rinaldo do the 90 feet that he need to reach the safety place? Can he run while flying? Can he simply run? If he can run, I think he is slowed down, so that would cover only 80' out of the 90', right? I have a twisted idea to cover the last 10 feet... Hogarth, acting after Rinaldo, Bull Rush Rinaldo who doesn't oppose the cleric... woudl that work?

I would suggest Vanitri and Tenny to go into safety too.[/SBLOCK]
 

(OOC: He can't run for the same reason that it becomes safe, actually--you can only run in a straight line, and it becomes safe after a while because the stairs are twisting around in a spiral, so you get out of sight because of the twist. But the twist means no straight line. He could do a weird angle and make it 70' by running to the back wall of the stairs--think Hogarth with his new Cha-based Strength could Bullrush Rinaldo the other 20 feet?)
 

[SBLOCK=OOC]Subjective gravity... can I run on the wall. It would just be like running down (or up) an hill and thus, be able to cover more distance.

And where did it told you must run in a straigth line? You can't charge without a straigth line, but running can be done while turning, or no one could run the 200m in the Olympic. I can't find any SRD reference about running must be done in straigth line.[/SBLOCK]
 

(OOC: Then you didn't look hard enough ;)
SRD said:
When you run, you can move up to four times your speed in a straight line

But subjectively letting yourself fall onto the wall once you're in the stairwell and running up the wall is both creative and allowable--that will work. You will have to make a Tumble check or suffer 1d6 Damage though, as you'll need to actually change the gravity to force you onto the wall and let yourself drop, rather than float down)
 

Tenebrynn calls out to Laynie, 'Stay up here, its safer. Vanitri can take care of himself.' Then concentrates and casts a clairvoyance into Sin's room to look towards the closet to see how close she is to finished.
 

(OOC: Won't Tenny fly with one move action up to a spot that's safe from direct targetting (if not AoE) first?)

*Tenny calls out to Laynie, but Laynie has already gone down anyway. Then Tenny concentrates on Clairvoyance into the closet (because she likes peeping on women dressing).*

[SBLOCK=Clairvoyance]Tenny sees Sin, bedecked in an incredibly stylish and elegant black dress that shimmers in the light, her hair fixed up nicely, standing in front of a tall full-length mirror and looking herself over as she turns around, examining the different sweeps, dips, and cuts in the dress, then turning back towards the mirror, her nexus in hand. She gives her best commanding glare at the mirror, saying "And now you die!" and pointing the nexus at the mirror. But she shakes her head: "No, that's way too trite. How about..." She shakes her head and looks at the mirror in disappointment, "You fools. And to think, I offered to let you rule the world together with me. You have hindered me for the last time." She shakes her head again: "No, that one doesn't even make sense this time. How about..." She raises an eyebrow and gives an ironic smile: "Meteor? I've hardly even met her?" She dismisses this one as well. "Oh, here's a good one!" She moves forward towards the mirror while drawing the nexus like a sword then flourishes it while pointing it towards the mirror: "Hello. My name is Elayna Valsice. You stole my daughter. Prepare...to die!" She nods. "That will do--I don't have time to think of something better." She turns towards the door to the closet*[/SBLOCK]
