Dakketh!

Stepping up, Dakketh hammers the two demons with a flurry of blows. One receives a kick to the stomach, while the other tries to dodge and ends up stumbling perilously close to the fiery ledge behind it.

Kharom beckons 51ckle to his side before he impales another demon, ending its life mercilessly.

Where exactly is E2 right now? If he's in the pit, I assume he is out of my sight?

ArcSyn

Spoiler:

E2 saved from falling. He's in E7 but at the edge and visible to you.

You mean he's in E7?

ArcSyn

Spoiler:

I don't know what you're talking about. That's what I said. E7. Yes. I wouldn't have typed E2 by mistake...

ArcSyn

Magoria or Odunn!

hippofant

Trying to adjust on the fly for the extreme heat emanating from the arena floor, Odunn fiddles with his crossbow, muttering under his breath, and lets loose a shot... that hits his target right between the eyes, splitting open its cranium and knocking it down into the pit of lava with a satisfying plop, followed by a sudden geyser burst of searing magma into the air.

Spoiler:

Biting Swarm vs E2's AC: 1d20+13 33 CRITICAL HIT!

Damage: 18+1d6 24 damage!

E2 is soooo dead!

"Well," Odunn reloads his crossbow, "Didn't quite expect that."

ArcSyn

Magoria?

ArcSyn

One of the remaining demons sees the warlord move away from the battle after striking down one of its own. Seeing Kharom's weakness, it moves in for the kill and tries to wrap its claws around him to allow it to bite down on his neck. Kharom still has some fight left in him though and pushes the demon away before it can sink its teeth into his flesh but suffers some major gouges from the claws as they shredded through his skin.

The other demon shifts away from the monk and focuses its attention on the warforged. It successfully pulls the construct and even though it is not flesh and blood, bites down and pulls pieces and bits apart. It is nearly able to dismantle 51ckle with its savage attack.

PepiPopa

51ckle battered and bloodied, lunges at the demon with a furious attack.
" You or I will perish today demon, and we have killed several of your brothers already. If it is indeed my day to die I will take you with me." The armor of the warforged glows with dark energy radiating darkness from it, striking the demon that just wounded the warforged.

Dakketh!

tzeentchling

With a loud screech, Dakketh leaps over his warforged ally to land between the two remaining demons. As he lands, he kicks his legs out in both directions, landing solid blows on each demon. The one facing off against 51ckle takes a foot to the face and falls backward into the pit of fire, all fight gone, while the one facing Kharom is shoved backwards from a blow to the chest.

Kharom impales the last demon on his halberd, grinning wickedly with the satisfaction of victory.

ArcSyn

Spoiler:

Yeah, everyone use up some surges.

tzeentchling

Spoiler:

Spending two surges to get up to full, 3/10 used.

As the last demon falls to Kharom's blade, Dakketh feels a rush of elation. They had survived yet again, against overwhelming odds. Letting the cheers of the crowd lift him, he resists the urge to slump down to the ground. Time for rest later.

hippofant

Spoiler:

I'm uh... totally fine?

Dropping to a knee, Odunn is relieved that his companions have survived this battle. While he himself was mostly unharmed, he knew he was in a privileged position far from the melee, and is grateful for that fact.

PepiPopa

Spoiler:

I am at 5/13 surges i will use 3 surges bringing me up to 49/62

"Good job, Kharom." 51ckle wobbles resting on the shield for a moment. Then the grin returns and the warforged yells:
"Now this was a challenge. I salute you."

ArcSyn

With a crackle of lightning, a flash of light, and the sound of thunder under your feet, a large serpentine dragon-like creature emerges, though it has many feet like a centipede and no wings like a dragon. Small cracks of lightning run around its body and between it's teeth. It looks around at each of you, before its gaze settles on Odunn. It roars mightily, continuing to shake the ground.

The madness inside 51ckle receeding, the warforged examines the great thunder beast preparing for battle.

51ckle Behir Nature:

Spoiler:

A behir is a cunning predator that spends its life apart from others of its kind. Behirs eject their young from their lairs shortly after birth, forcing them to fight to survive. Judging by the lightning arcing across its body and in its mouth, you don't think lightning attacks would do as much damage as they could.

tzeentchling

Dakketh senses the presence of the Behir before he sees it, the hairs on the back of his neck pricking up in anticipation and static electricity. He remembers the time he and his fellow monks fought one in training at his monastery, and tries to recall the lessons learned from that match.

Spoiler:

Initiative: 1d20+8 27
Nature: 1d20+6 24

ArcSyn

Dakketh Behir Nature:

Spoiler:

Despite its bestial nature, a behir is surprisingly intelligent. By virtue of their ability to speak and understand Common, behirs are sought out by creatures looking to entice one of these predators into their service. Such negotiations end badly if the behir's terms are not met. Stormsteeds can ride the lightning they generate, allowing them to fly through the air and even hover. This behir, however, looks to be simply a young whelp, and probably cannot fly yet. They are allies and mounts of storm giants. Due to its nature of lightning attacks, it can withstand up to 10 lightning damage and not be harmed. You know that behirs are beasts the respond with lightning reflexes, and wait for actions of others to be taken before taking their own.

Chanus

Kharom is a bit distracted with mending his wounds before the coming fight.

Dakketh!

Dakketh moves to the edge of the arena and unhooks a smoke bomb from his belt. Hurling it at the behir, he watches it harmlessly explode a couple feet away from its head, intercepted and destroyed by a spare bolt of lightning from the creature.

Move: E9

51ckle!

Seeing an ally on the ground fires up the warforged and he takes a running jump over the lava pit, smashing the beast on its head with a deafening blow, pushing the Behir back and away from 51ckle's ally.Or that was the plan...

I was hoping to end my turn in D9 after i push the beast but considering i missed i have no idea where i can land after that stunt. I guess in the lava would be a nice punishment for failure.Or on the beast.I am not sure what the mechanic is.

Behir!

The behir spots the charging warforged and attempts to smack the warforged down in mid-air before it can approach, but flails helplessly in the air instead. 51ckle sees the opportunity to strike true before the beast can react!
