Catnip vs. Zepar - Critical Hit/Damage (Zepar: 638 health+40 SP-(70+20=90x6=540 dmg)=138 health)

Althior - Transcended (+1 ether)
Zepar - Doomed (knocked out)

Hybros reaps more gold by taking out two of the remaining three demons. Pretzel and Catnip try to defeat the third, but it's only Namyrra's vicious item that does it in. Solomon wakes up from his trance to realize all his demonic protectors are gone.

"You're out of time, Solomon!"

Then, right at that moment when Catnip fires her bowgun at her former lover...

THE BATTLE IS VICTORIOUS!

Althior: +1/5

The wall behind the demonologist was blown to smithereens as a gigantic bird crashed through it. Riding on top of it's head was an elderly woman who was immediately recognizable by her owl's eyes.

"You had your fun, but the play time's over. Garuda, take my errant apprentice and we shall make our leave."

"AAAS YOOOU COMMAAAND!"

Solomon was lying motionless on the floor, and Byblos lunged at the second Pandemonicon sprawled open near the body. The giant bird's talons stopped him on his tracks, though.

"Not so fast, monkeyman. I will be taking the book with me, as well as the one you are carrying."

"But... I need them! ... To close the rift in the sky, I mean!"

"And I need to make sure I killed Solomon!"

"Hmmm, that puts us in a bit of a bind... Surely you don't think you can defeat the Immortal Mindflayer, the King of Birds and the Archdemon of Wrath all in one go? Speaking of which, where did that darned falcon fly off to...?"

"You will never get my Pandemonicon, Baba! I know you can't even read it yourself. I bet that's why you've come to get your apprentice back."

"My, you're a clever gorilla! Unleashing all of Azazot upon this world would surely satiate my vengeful side, but that was Solomon's plan, not mine. Demons are too fickle to be controlled - you out of all people should know that. I will simply settle for all the nations of Olegaia bowing down to me as their Sovereign, and I want to eliminate competition. Solomon can help me with that - as soon as I've consumed his treacherous mind. I've had good few millennia's time to think about it, and I realized that world domination is my goal in life."

"Can I shoot her already?"

"So, what will it be? Will you give me Solomon and both of the Pandemonicons peacefully, or will we have a bout?"

What will the party respond?

**Quarryman** · September 13, 2016

"I say we kill her, she's already cheated me out of one chance at that, so I figure it's payback time."

CMP · September 14, 2016

Atramor uses three Grand Tonics on Althior, one on Namyrra, and four on Byblos. He uses his Nostrum on Catnip. He looks sideways at Baba as she smashes in on a giant bird. He takes a step back to appraise the party's odds...then he draws both Mythril Claws, still coated in a thick layer of black demon blood.

"Ya' must be the witch, or...mindflayer or whatever I've heard so much about. They way I hear it? You have a million and one things to answer for, ya' shrivelled old bitch."

He takes his Fenghuang Incense out of his pack, and lights that up too, a glowing blue smoke filling his nostrils as he inhales it deeply.

**JimBee** · September 14, 2016

Hybros holds his weapons steady and furls his brow at the new challengers. "So this is the witch I have heard so much about. For the sake of all you have caused pain and misery to, we will fight you tonight, Baba!"

Hybros breathes in the blue smoke from Atramor's Incense and adds in his own mixtures by throwing a Bravado Brew and Smile of the Gods to the floor. He also drinks the Nostrum from his Hollow Dagger, replacing it with Purging Water, and chases it down with Mulled Wine.

He hands his Gauntlets of Recklessness and Dastan Armor to Catnip and offers her a Mulled Wine as well. "May these serve you well. I will of course need them back, heheh."

He also shoves 9,900 gold into Althior's arms.

**Quarryman** · September 14, 2016

Namyrra drinks a Nostrum and an Ambrosia, while sniffing some smelling salts before handing her Desert Cloak to Byblos. "I believe this might come in handy, master Byblos."

"Oh and before I forget, master Emorith, I'd appreciate it greatly if you could hold onto these 263 gold for me."

Namyrra also passes back the Phoenix Emblem to Hybros and equips the Paper Doll instead.

**JimBee** · September 14, 2016

Hybros nods his thanks to Namyrra and equips the Phoenix Emblem in place of the Medal of Glory.

He also hands the Reaver Axe to Catnip.

OOC: I'm assuming the Emblem will act in addition to the Incense. Also we would obviously like the NPCs to equip the artifacts.

K-Nut · September 14, 2016

Althior holds onto all the loot for now. He drinks a Nostrum and Mulled Wine. "I think you're forgetting who you're speaking to Ambergaze. You managed to megabluck most of us over single-handedly, and the fact that you think we'd ever forget that makes you a damn fool," he pulls out his scepter. "I'd rather die here than let you escape us again,"

Byblos equips the desert cloak.

Edited September 14, 2016 by K-Nut

I hand the Horned Demon Hat to Catnip and down a Nostrum and Mulled Wine.

"After all that you've done to us...to me, you think I'm just going to walk out of here and let you take what you came for. You're dead, Baba! This is the end for you or for me. I swore allegiance to one of my arch-enemies in order to evict you from your position in Eubric, now is the time for me to finish off the job."

"Witch you say, and witch may be, looks mostly like a bitch to me, just one battle now and you'll be gone!"

Althior passes the brain drill to Atramor and Heaven and Hell to Pretzel for the battle.

Namyrra also goes around letting Atramor, Althior, Pretzel, Byblos and Catnip sniff in some smelling salts too (OoC: that should be six smelling salts used in total)

**Sandy** · September 15, 2016

QM Note: I unfortunately don't have time to post the final final battle yet, as I have to carefully balance it so that I won't omit things like the Soul Cage this time around. :blush: I will also be out of town for a couple of days, so you should expect the battle to go up on Sunday.

"After all that you've done to us...to me, you think I'm just going to walk out of here and let you take what you came for. You're dead, Baba! This is the end for you or for me. I swore allegiance to one of my arch-enemies in order to evict you from your position in Eubric, now is the time for me to finish off the job."

Baba let out a small, dry laughter.

"Ha! You forget that I cannot be killed without the Fenarian's precious Psy Crown. You should've done your job right when you had the chance." Baba gave Monk Pretzel a devious smile. "I am surprised they still trust you so willingly, my dear friar."

Byblos suddenly got an epiphany, snuck behind the heroes and hastily wrote something on a piece of paper.

"I've got Z-mail", he whispered. As the paper vanished, he gave the others a sly wink.

"Enough dilly-dallying! Solomon, get up now! You were such a disappointment to me, you better make up for it now!"

Baba waved her hand and the demonologist slowly rose to his feet, groaning and muttering. Catnip glared at him angrily.

"I couldn't have missed, not from this range! Well, I'll just kill you as many times as it takes!"

"Solomon, call that birdie of yours and finish what you were doing!"

"Yes... mistress..."

Solomon whistled, and the falcon flew back to his arm from the perch it had been hiding on. It let out an otherworldly cry.

**Sandy** · September 18, 2016

Solomon kept chanting, and suddenly the falcon on his arm burst into a ball of searing light and heat. When the heroes regained vision, they saw an enormous demon towering over them, rivaled in size only by Garuda. The air in the castle suddenly got intensely hot, and the heroes felt their skin scathing.

"Ah, Marilith! How nice to see you again! What has it been, a thousand years?"

"SPARE YOUR SILVER TONGUE, MINDFLAYER! ONCE WE ARE FINISHED WITH THESE PESKY MORTALS THAT HAVE FOILED MY PLANS TIME AFTER TIME, YOU AND I ARE GOING TO HAVE A LITTLE CHAT."

"T-that's Marilith the Vengeful, the Archdemon of Wrath! She's the one who spirited away the Academy of Enlightenment, if you remember. I doubt she will be as easily defeated as Ahriman and Naamah..."

"Once again we have a common enemy, Marilith, so I agree that we should focus on them before reminiscing about past. Garuda, Solomon - let's make these so-called heroes regret they were ever born!"

"WIIITH PLEEASUUURE!"

The king of birds flapped his enormous wings enthusiastically, but the demonologist looked weary.

"Mistress... I'm beat..."

"No mercy for the wicked, Solomon."

"I just wish my letter arrived safely..." Byblos muttered.

"Hey, this looks like it could actually be fun!"

Staying firmly in the back row Namyrra prepares one Wind spell at Garuda and one Wind spell at the Left Talon.

"Fun is one word for it. I know a lot of people that would just love to see us drag that wrinkled head of yours into the Hall," Atramor directs towards Baba, whilst he summons his Archangel with 60 mana from the back row. The celestial slayer descends from the sky on a ray of light, looks upon the enemies with disdain and speaks her Holy Word, crippling their defenses. He then lobs a Neptune Bomb into their foes, from the back row. "Let's get this done, mates; we've got one shot at the bitch."

Just for clarification, if we target Baba, will she still get a free hit due to dodge?

QM Note: No, because if you target her she gets a chance to hurt you with the roll DAMAGE or SPECIAL DAMAGE.

Only if that chance doesn't exist (eg by using items or summons) will the targeted enemy get a Free Hit.

Okay, not sure if this confirms to the spirit of Baba's passive special, but...

I swap the Duke's Coat of Arms for the Shackles of War, and then Throw a Bone to Baba

"Fetch doggy!

QM Note: Baba dodges all items as well for the time being. Sorry (not sorry)! :grin:
