The Heart of the Matter, round 9

INITIATIVE baddies [1d6] = 2 party [1d6] = 5 Oh noes!

Dandy dispels the ice storm and the slush, even that attached to the bottoms of boots, disappears!
Dieter commands the owl, owl attack [1d20] = 8, [1d20] = 17, [1d20] = 3 dmg [2d4] = 6 who rakes her with his claws, and the fire elemental, elemental attack [1d20] = 9 who misses!
Furuk's bolt Furuk crossbow [1d20+2] = 2+2 = 4 is wide right!
Grimes Grimes Wave attack [1d20+5] = 5+5 = 10 is wide left!
Grief-stricken Castinus Castinus sword [1d20+1] = 4+1 = 5 is off the cross bar!
A hole appears under Shae, ten feet deep dmg [1d6] = 1, but she lands with catlike grace within. Following her are Castinus dmg [1d6] = 1 and Grimes dmg [1d6] = 3, who are in melee with her (the hole is 5' in diameter).

Shae (attack 1) creates a wall of ice that forms under her feet and up. The hole is filled and both she and the two she is in melee with are raised above the ground another 10' on a pillar of ice! She is visibly shaken and damaged! (attack 2) Blackrazor! [1d20+3] = 17+3 = 20 flashes and Castinus dmg [1d8+3] = 7+3 = 10 can't dodge this one. The Black Blade laughs out loud as the thief's soul is visibly sucked from his body into the star-field sword! Shae all but cackles as her cheeks warm with the new life force and she is filled with power!

Uh-oh

[merias]

Dandy screams in rage as his friend is cut down, he hurls Whelm at Shae with a vengeance!

[tumblingdice]

Castinus' soul shrieks as it is torn from his body. "Noooooo...Shaeeeee!" Then his lifeless, soulless form slumps from the pillar of ice to the ground below. You most likely hear something snap.

OC: Before Shae cast the wall of ice, she sucked Grimes and Castinus into a hole 10 feet deep. Did the wall of ice bring us back up to ground level, or above ground level? Either way, it reminds me of the Monty Python sketch with the actress who stands in a trench so that she can be shorter than the male lead, but also stands upon boxes within the trench so that she's normal height.

Dieter - Mage

This is already not ending well... Dieter will summon an earth elemental with his staff and command it to attack the Shae thing.


OCC: Dieter cannot use his heavy damage spells w/o endangering his comrades, any recommendations?

ooc: Is Belenus still hanging around? Or did he depart when he destroyed the heart?

Belenus hasn't left yet. He's watching the plight of mortals having completed the task that was asked of him.

ooc: OK, editing this because Dandy has a spell I think may be very useful here - but it requires a ref ruling. The AEC says Clerics can use reversed versions of spells they have memorized. Dandy has heal on a scroll (12th level of spell use), can he cast its reverse, harm, from the scroll?

Absolutely!
