Vasorn, the World Under Dragonfire

[Paxus Asclepius]

Grim Daergal, Svirfneblin Cagebreaker

*Grim hurls a sling bullet at Kelvarix's throat just above the collarbone, while he draws his Wand of Magic Missiles with his free hand.*

 

[Dark Nemesis]

Alyshia Ra'nier, Rogue/Wizard/Arcane Trickster, 55/55

*She hummed quietly to herself as she watched the greenish arrow strike the dragon right between the claws, and began to eat at the dragon. That looks like it hurt. It probably did not smell all that great either. Once again, she invoked a spell, creating five globes of light that raced forward to strike the dragon.*


OOC: Casts Magic Missile, 5 missiles at 1d4+1 each.

*Zass'sk, it indeed appears as if the duergar woman is leading freed slaves, considering their poor dress and less-than-perfect health. It seems as if the mind flayers, beholder, and skum are fighting an amethyst dragon, nearly twenty feet long and furiously angry. The slaves are about a hundred feet from your hiding place and are keeping to the shadows. However the dragon battle is less than fifty feet from where you are.*

 

[Zerth]

Zass'sk ponders his options briefly, but making a decision is not difficult. Those slaves need time to get away. I might not be able to really harm that huge amethyst, but distract it I can.

*The lizardman grabs a javelin of lightning from his back and moves slowly towards the battle, trying to keep out of sight. When he gets a good aim at the dragon, he lets the javelin, which transforms into a bolt of lightning in the air, fly towards it.*

(OOC: 5d6 lightning bolt, Ref save DC 14.)

Zykovian, Half Sapphire Dragon Fighter/Rogue: 36/101 hps, 25 pps at rd. start

'Not the position I wanted to be in,' Zykovian thought. 'This is why you don’t confront a dragon directly.' Zykovian pondered his situation . . . he could retreat or Kelvarix would finish him before he got ten feet. He coud engage his null psionics, but that would probably only help Kelvarix as Zykovian noted the magical attacks coming his way. He needed to delay Kelvarix for another round or two so that Dessa and the slaves could make their escape. The Only real option he had was to press the attack, and heal himself in the process. So he pulled out all of the stops. . .

OOC: Using Deep Impact on both claw attacks and power attacking for +3. Full Attack Claws (x2): Touch attack, +11 (1d8 + 1d4 [psionic] +11 (20 x2), healing a like amount and Bite: +5 (1d8 +10 20 x2). Note: Claws of the Vampire, Improved Biofeedback, and Animal Affinity: Charisma are all still active. Fate of One on any failed save.

Down 9 real and 56 subdual.

*In the wind-swept plains of the mindscape, Kelvarix easily tosses everyone asidelike matchsticks. But in the real world it is he who gets hurt. Zykovian's claws bury themselves deeply in the dragon's chest, drawing his rich purple-red blood blood, while his teeth further open and aggrivate the wound.*

*From above your head the acid on his upper chest continues to burn, and suddenly there is an impact of no less that five darts of light that slam into the same spot, diving the acid deeper. Alyshia, you spell goes off well, hammering the dragon right over the spot you previously hit.*

*Kilvash's bolt hits this time, thudding into a weaker spot near one of his joints, causing a trickle of blood to flow. Grim whirls his sling around, and Luckbringer can be heard to hum an inspiring tune as he's whirled. The stone slings through the air... hitting Kelvarix in the left eye., while Grim slips out his wand into his other hand. Ellimon takes advantage of the distraction to dash for the shadows, concealing himself, then letting a bolt fly from his concealment. It hits cleanly, right in the hollow of the dragon's throat, drawing a gout of blood.*

*Guran charges forward, greatsword raised and makes a bit slash at Kelvarix's flank, drawing blood.*

"Die, die, die!" he chants, looking very close to the edge.

*Kelvarix backs up about twenty feet, trying to get away from the crazy half-dragons attacking him. He looks much worse for the wear as he lowers his head to the ground. But then he opens his mouth, and a line of screaming, concussive force hammers out, straight for Zykovian. But in a show of acrobatics that would have done any cat proud, the sapphire half-dragon adroitly dodged the murderous breath weapon entirely, getting not a scratch. However, the line contines, slamming into Grim, nearly nocking the life's breath out of him.*

[OOC - Zykovian, claws deal 28 points of damage, healing same, bit does 16 points of damage, also Zykovian I forgot the Kelvarix had the disarm mind feat, so he's drained a total of 9 power points from you. Alyshia's acid arrows continue to burn, deal 5 points of damage, her magic missiles deal 23 points of damage. Kilvash hit exactly with a 14 for 5 points of damage. Grim rolls an 18 to hit a 45, dealing 6 points of damage and disturbing the dragon's vision. Ellimon managed a sneak attack while Kelvarix was so distracted, dealing 44 points of damage. Guran's charge ends up dealing 25 points of damage with his greatsword. Zykovian dodges the breath weapon exactly and with evasion takes no damage, Grim on the other hand takes the full 48 points of concussive force damage.]

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

Grim Daergal, Svirfneblin Cagebreaker

*Grim grunts in agony as split ribs grate against each other. He gasps out the words to a Major Image, creating the appearance of three other Grims; one tosses a ball of lightning at the dragon from the just-produced wand, one begins casting another spell, and the third races up, drawing his sword. The actual Grim has been concealed by the illusion as a patch of rock against the wall.*

 

[Velmont]

Gortag, seeing his teammate in difficulty, go help them.

OOC: Move and attack if possible. Charge if possible AND needed.

Zykovian, Half Sapphire Dragon Fighter/Rogue: 73/101 hps, 6 pps at rd. start

Feeling much better about the conflict as his claws drained the life from Kelvarix and restored him, Zykovian tried some acrobatics of his own. Zykovian started toward the dragon and tumbled as he neared Kelvarix. He took another swipe with a single claw, aiming for one of the several wounds already on the dragon. Zykovian briefly thought about tumbling all the way behind Kelvarix, but had already experienced his tail once today.

OOC: Tumble +7, fighting defensively (AC 28), Claw: +10 (1d8 + 1d4 [psionic] + 8 (20 x2),

Down 28 Subdual

(OOC: 5d6 lightning bolt, Ref save DC 14.)

*Zass'sk's bolt flies true, and the dragon was entirely unsuspecting of it, taking it full in the flank. Two of the beholder's eyestalks look behind it, and see you clearly, and it shouts something to its fighting companions. The mind flayers attack with renewed vigor, blasting the dragon with varying powers of energy, electricty, acid, and cold, the air in front of them rippling with the power they throw the dragon's way. The beholder's powers seem to be keeping the dragon from unleashing the worst of its powers, and the skum press their attacks, only to be cut down brutally by the dragon's claws.*

*The duergar woman turns and sees what is behind her. She looks torn between her charges and fighting the dragon, but seems to come to a decision. She fires a single powerful lighting bolt at the dragon, catching it fully in the chest, and then catches your glance. She locks gazes with you and jerks her head toward the dragon, before turning back to her charges and diving into the shadows.*

[OOC - Caught the dragon flat-footed, caused 22 points of damage]
