[QUOTE="Dr Simon, post: 4593022, member: 21938"] [SIZE="1"]OOC: The 'ice demon' is down and bleeding slush. I'm going to assume that Ape goes for the yeti, as it is still very much alive and kicking (throwing).[/SIZE] Annika's fiery feather slams into the yeti's shoulder, causing it to roar in pain, tinged with fear (it seems to dislike the fiery effect). As Three Flowers blocks its raking attacks with its claws, Growling Ape darts inside its reach. Its claws rake down his back as he does so, drawing three lines of blood but luckily for Ape it doesn't manage to grab hold of him. He swings his enchanted staff, the power of nature flows through it as it connects solidly with the yeti's ribs. The creature literally explodes into a burst of snowflakes as Ape's staff passes right through it. The snowfall stops, and the scudding grey clouds seem to vanish away to give a clear blue sky. The snow and ice begin to melt, supernaturally quickly. Green grass sprouts from underfoot and the withered winter trees burst into spring buds. Out on the ice, Xielt spits a few curses in the tlaxu language as his claws frantically scrabble on the rapidly melting surface. The ice gives way beneath him but, hissing and spluttering, he swims back to shore, struggling up onto land and rescuing his clawsticks on the way. The Lion Guard soldier, already back on shore, leans hurt and weary upon his spear. Everyone is beaten, bloodied or half-frozen, but alive. The demon's body melts away, leaving only its scale armour, fur cloak, twin moon-blade (all Large size) and the pile of bones that it had been sat on. [sblock=ooc] Annika magic missile on yeti, 5 damage Yeti AoO on Ape, hits (an unconfirmed threat), 9 damage Growling Ape attack on yeti 20+3=23, hit. Crit confirmation 15+3=18, critical. Damage 4d6+4 = 15, enough to destroy yeti. (Swim check for Xielt 16+2=18). Well done all, that was probably about an EL6! I wanted to really put those extra hit points through their paces :devil: In case you were wondering, I took the base stats for a Wang Liang from Oriental Adventures, and swapped out invisibility for a breath weapon and cold traits. I swapped the yeti's cold aura for the funky throw ability which was fun to visualize but, oh, so many grapple checks. Shame it only got the NPCs really. Growling Ape was *very* lucky.
