Rosalyn peers over the rubble, watching the Legion Devils battle the beast. They seem desperate, where as their foe looks completely unharmed. She glanced over to Mizzely who was just ahead of her, then back to the monster. She had noticed a great deal about the room, but now was not the time to share it with her allies. There was something off about the collapsed chamber in the back, something she would definitely tell one of her comrades once she could get closer and find a better opportunity.

End Turn

DM:

Alright, the surprise round is still in effect.

Craed, its your turn.

AMdG

Craed watched as his companions snuck across the room. He could see the wisdom in that, obviously they didn't want to attract the attention of that large beast or the devils in the hopes they would kill each other first. It would be much easier on them to not have to deal with the brute. The devils already looked the worse for wear and probably weren't going to last very much longer. Craed thought all this and then was surprised to find himself half-way across the room already. Ah, well, might as well go with the flow. He stopped on the far side of the fire pit and watched for an opening. He saw that two of the devils were at the back of the creature and both seemed good targets. He quickly chose one and let loose his vines.

DM:

After much deliberation, I can say that it is a hit, and it is dead. (I had to check, double check, and triple check to make sure that your vines weren't going directly THROUGH the fire; as it stands, the vines safely skirted the edge, getting a little singed but not enough to hamper their progress!)

As the Devil cries out in surprised agony before falling to the ground, the attention of the unidentified creature and the 3 remaining Devils focuses on the direction from which the attack originated: the fire pit, and Craed just beyond it.

Continue.

AMdG

OOC: I totally didn't realize that the fire would be large enough to hamper my vines.

Craed grins at the demonic creatures and thinks about what might get him out of this mess. Realizing he had one advantage that they might not realize, he decided to bluff. He shifted into his fox form and attempted something he had never done before. He focused on making it look as demonic as possible. Concentrating on sprouting horns, spines, a large, lashing tail, and adding a few thorny tentacles (to make them look as much as his vines as possible) he hoped that the large brute would mistake him for an ally and welcome his aid. As the transformation completed, he looked down at his form with pride. He glared at the devils and let out a guttural roar.

Minor Action: Beast Form

OOC: I don't know if I need to make a check or not to bluff the guy so let me know!

DM:

Go ahead and make a Bluff check, please.

AMdG

DM:

Upon seeing your demonic transformation, all of the remaining Legion Devils shriek in terror. The large creature seems unaffected, though his demonic features twist into a horrifying grin.

Additional details have been sent to you via PM.

Continue.

AMdG

Craed knew that the large beast wasn't fooled, but he decided to hold the transformation long enough for the devils to use the weapons they had just raised to their own throats. Without them then they could focus on that big guy and hopefully, and he really, really, hoped, they could bring him down without too much fuss.

DM:

Alright, Willow, you are the last one in the surprise round. After this, we will move on to normal initiative order.

And yes, Craed, yes you are...

AMdG

DM:

Also, Willow, your Passive Perception has picked up on something. Please check your PMs.

AMdG

This is not good, Willow thinks to herself, scanning the battlefield for anything that might give the group an advantage over the hulking creature before them.
