We continue our fight against the forces of Luthor. Who knows what they want from Screech but he is kinda our problem to take care of.

Story[]

Long Story[]

The battle continues between our heroes of Rimeford and the sinister villains of Copperpot's Amazing Menagerie. Waylon, the alligator man has just bitten Beholder-doodle, which may or may not be turning the vigilante into a were-alligator (alliga-were?). Pamela, who likes plants and is occasionally referred to as "Poison Oak", creates a Wall of Flame, which traps Selene! Selene is, however, able to step out of the way, and blasts a Firebolt right back at her. Not to be outdone, Pamela uses her powers of plants (really just a spell), to create vines and thorns on the ground, which stops it from being all slippery.

Meanwhile, Beholder-doodle is still locked in combat with Waylon. He doesn't want to get bit again, so he uses his blade to carve Waylon's teeth out! Holy shit! This, understandably, knocks out the 'gator, whom Beholder-doodle vows he'll see later. He also pockets the teeth for safe-keeping. The dog-man then turns his sights on Boon (the masked strongman), and the teeth there-in. He creeps toward Boon, muttering "Teeth... Teeth... Teeth..." under his breath, which is very scary.

T'Chuck focuses his efforts on Pamela, sending some choice Words of Radiance her way. He also creates a Spiritual Weapon in the form of a glowing lance, which does many a-stab upon her. Selene creates a kind of spiritual weapon of her own: a large hand belonging to one Maximilian, which does many a-squeeze upon Boon. This makes it easier for Beholder-doodle to catch up to Boon. He's about to removed Boon's teeth as well... But snaps out of this momentary obsession. Instead, he just knocks him out.

Selene isn't satisfied with the amount of ethereal hands on the battlefield, so she casts Chill Touch to create another one, and sends it Pamela's way. This nearly kills her, but seeing her allies bested, now out-numbered, Pamela surrenders. She falls to the ground and begs to be spared. She offers them a deal. She says that if they don't kill her, she'll tell them where Luthor took R'Oarc!

Short[]

The battle continues. Beholder-doodle knocks out Waylon and Boon (and takes Waylon's teeth). Pamela surrenders, telling them that Luthor has kidnapped R'Oarc.

Trivia[]

  • Day 13 of the campaign.
  • "Boon" was previous referred to as "Edwardo" at one point.
  • Beholder-doodle doesn't kill (that we've seen).
  • Michael allows that Selene can use Maximilian's Earthen Grasp in a non-lethal capacity, despite that not being "legal" for spells.
    • This is referred to as "non-lethal squeeze damage".
