Well, I have a plan that might work here. It's definitely what I would call a bad plan though.

Also, question about metagaming/play-by-post formatting. I was considering withdrawing Hero this turn (because she's low level and has basically done what she can this fight), but now that she's been targeted by a powerful attack it feels odd to withdraw her, especially as I wasn't able to check in last night. I think I'll leave her in this time to avoid the issue, but how should we handle declaring actions that could invalidate opposing actions in the future?
