[QUOTE="Tecklenburg, post: 6585410, member: 6781356"] I speak in my mind to the invasive aboleth. "Worse things than you have tried to make a meal of me." As the creature's tentacles are about to strike me, I use the arcane fabric that overlays all realities and step through worlds, leaving the creature's tentacles to grasp at nothing. Using the Void Note of the Bladesong, I teleport next to the aboleths blocking the way for Saerie, Rawr, and the old dog. I'll help them cut a path. [sblock]Used 1 Bladesong for Void Note to avoid the imminent danger of the Aboleth Overseer's tentacles. Teleported to close range with IA3, IA4, and IA7. Flawless Bladework (Int) 2, 2 + 3 = 7 d8 damage + 1 technique and enemies counterattack me. 3 damage. [B]Burst[/B]: Your attack deals an additional 1d4 damage and gains the ‘forceful’ tag. 3 damage. Dead. Counterattack on me. d6 + 2 (2 extra aboleths) = 4 - 4 (spend 1 Bladesong for + 2 armor from Guarded Flourish) = 0 damage to me.[/sblock] My blade and body work with tremendous alacrity the moment I emerge in a flash of teleportation. Spinning, slashing, parrying tentacles, and neatly side-stepping, I bring a ward of magic forth at the last moment to deflect the aboleth blows. The battle is a whirl of massive bodies, fire, ice, telepathic invasion, and flailing tentacles. I block everything from my mind save for ending the lives of these two creatures before me so my allies can find egress against the pursuing Remorhaz. [sblock]Flawless Bladework (Int) 4, 4 + 3 = 11 d8 damage + 2 techniques. 6 damage. Dead. [B]Burst[/B]: Your attack deals an additional 1d4 damage and gains the ‘forceful’ tag. I want to use the forceful tag to fling the body of the aboleth every the heads of my incoming allies so the Remorhaz has something to feed on momentarily. [B]Flowing[/B]: If your attack kills a target, you may immediately attack a new target as if you had gotten a 7-9 on the move you initially used. d8 damage + 1 technique and the last aboleth counterattacks me. 7 damage. Dead. [B]Burst[/B]: Your attack deals an additional 1d4 damage and gains the ‘forceful’ tag. Again, I want to use the forceful tag to fling the body of the aboleth every the heads of my incoming allies so the Remorhaz has something to feed on momentarily. Counterattack on me. d6 = 3 - 2 = 1 damage to me.[/sblock] As the tentacles grasp my arms, legs and waste, I attempt to harness the fury of a thousand battles to break free. [sblock]Defy Danger (Str) 1, 1 - 1 = 0 Mark 1 xp 1d6 + 2 damage to me. 2 + 2 - 2 = 2 damage to me.[/sblock] Lol, just like at the crevasse. [/QUOTE]
