*sigh* okay.

If the creature looks like it's going to attack, I shoot it with the crossbow.

"Ok, hopefully magic works, because this thing is clearly not gonna be happy when it wakes,"

Jerila stands back and nocks an arrow, but doesn't fire. Yet.

Turn 5: Pissed-Off Magma Creature

Without moving, Jacob whispers to the rest of the party, "...it ain't waking up. Let's be going up. I'd like to see my options before trying to kill this thing. Unless, of course, you'd like to try kill bears or seduce elemental on the beast? ...yeah, seduce elemental sounds right. That thing is an elemental, aye?"

Nodding slightly, Ae-Hale responds with "I'm surprised the Lava Elemental isn't seducing ME, considering how HOT it is."
"..."
"Yeah, I'll just go and cast the spell already."

Ae-Hale extends his focus out to the beast [Magic: 1+2], and the creature snorts as its eyes snap open, geysers of steam suddenly surging out of it's nostrils. Its eyes quickly flick over the party, and it stands up and lets loose a monstrous roar!

In response, Jacob and Ardelion let loose a crossbow bolt and blast of ice, respectively.

[Jacob, Ranged Weapon: 6+1]
[Ardelion, Magic: 2+2]
[?, END: 5+?]

Jacob's bolt strikes straight and true, piercing the beast's eye! Unfortunately, this causes the monster to make a beeline straight for the bard in a blind rage. Ardelion's blast of ice strikes the creature in the leg, but it doesn't even slow it down as in the blink of an eye it bears down on Jacob.

[?, STR: 6+?]
[Jacob, DEX: 4+1]

[-Ammo: 1 Crossbow Bolt]

Fortunately for Jacob, he is able to jump out of the way just before the monster careens past him, charging like a huge, molten bull into the wall. The creature slams into the cavern wall, the whole room trembling as rocks fall from the ceiling.

After congratulating herself for correctly predicting that the beast would be pissed as hell, Jerila nocks an arrow, pointed straight at the beast. Meanwhile, Gary cowers behind a stalagmite, yelling "That isn't a bear, so I'll let you fellows handle this one. I'll patch you up if you get bulldozed!"

Fog it.

Can we get another eye shot? Because if that thing loses both eyes, it's going to have a bad time.  :D
Shoot it in the other eye.

Although, evasive actions is going to be very important.
Prepare to dodge out of the way if that thing attempts to attack me again.

"...seduction's probably out of the question. Metal might melt before it hits that fire creature, which may be a good thing...does it have a gender? If that you thing's a male, I could make his spear uncomfo..no. I'm not going to even say it.

He's using his head as a weapon, so could I melt that?"

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

A resilient this one is, maybe it just needs to learn how to chill and calm down, don't ya think.
continue those Blasts of Ice on the lava elemental, we quite frankly need this thing to not be, at least, actively sentient anymore

"And this is what happens when you don't think to bring any proper weaponry.

...wait.
Someone, pass the coward a wand! I want one hole to the void in that beast's way!

And Ard, get some deflect heat on us if that thing seems to be getting too close to us!"

Just fine... This is going just fine, Jerila...


Try to shoot in the creature's mouth, and be ready to dodge if necessary, preferably towards the way we're going

Turn 6: School of Hard Knocks

Jacob realizes that if the beast can't see, then it can't gore him to death! With this revelation, he moves in to shoot it in its other eye.

[Ranged Weapon: 4+1]
[?, END: 1+?]

[-Item: Crossbow Bolt]

The bolt flies straight and true, piercing the monster right in its good eye! With a roar, it pounds the ground a few times with its massive leg before slowly turning towards Jacob. Steam flies out of it's nostrils again as it moves it to charge!

[?, STR: 3+?]
[Jacob, DEX: 6+1]

However, it turns out the creature isn't nearly as accurate without it's eyes. Still, it comes close enough to Jacob that he has to dive out of the way. When he does so, however, he careens into one of the cavern walls, striking his head on the stone!

[Jacob, END: 1-1]

[Jacob has passed out!]

Meanwhile, Gary continues assuming his tactically defensive position behind the stalagmite.
"I'm a doctor, not a fighter! Besides, I'm sure you'd rather I survive. After all, this beautiful face is worth taking a beating to protect."

As Gary cowers, Jerila lets loose an arrow into the beastie's maw!

[Ranged Weapon: 5+1]

While the arrow does in fact fly into its mouth, it doesn't appear that it had any effect at all, besides causing the monster to turn towards Jerila and charge!

[?, STR: 3+?]
[Jerila, DEX: 5+1]

Jerila gracefully sidesteps the attack ... right into the wall.

[Jerila, END: 1-1]

[Jerila has passed out!]

With two teammates down and a pissed-as-hell monster, Ardelion attempts to extinguish the beast with his ice!

[Ardelion, Magic: 3+2]
[?, DEX: 2+?]
[?, END: 2+?]

Bolt after bolt of ice pounds into the monster, the first slamming into the front leg, and a second slamming into a hind leg, completely tearing it off! The monster teeters for a second before crashing to the ground, howling in what appears to be agony.

With a shrug, Ae-Hale attempts to seduce the beast again for shits and giggles.

[Magic: 4+2]

In a second, the monster's wailing dies down to whimpers as it begins dragging itself towards Ae-Hale. It doesn't get far, having only three legs, one of which barely works.
