Serpent's Skull: City of Seven Spears [IC]

[lostsole31]

R2T10: Book dashes southeast to attempt to flank the beast and using his sudden insight strikes he realizes that ... because he had to stop short with Sersheelda in the way ... he has to use his pepperbox instead of his whip. He takes aim and fires, but misses.

R2T9.5: Sersheelda sees that Book wanted to go to that spot, and she steps away while casting a spell on herself.

R2T9: The chimera takes 1 bleed. With perfect precision and very little effort, it recovers from the charge and shifts its facing mid-hover, breathing a cone that catches Veress, Sersheelda, and Book. Veress and Book manage to totally clear the cone, but Sersheelda gets caught .... but the burning wounds show on Xhanfaerd for 3 fire (and 6 PP). Seeing little effect from the flame and its life force bleeding out, the chimera's three heads roar in frustration.

R2T8: Aron hooks to flank while drawing her short sword and stabs the chimera in the haunches for 16, Xhanfaerd's resonance and Gelik's oration helping her strike harder.

R2T7: Veress, outside of Xhanfaerd's power, nonetheless gives a staggering bite for 16 + 8 NL + grab, and then claws for 13, and another claw which boxes the ear for 14 + deafened + dropped!

Veress will savage the chimera's remains until it moves no more.
