Red stared up with a bewildered expression, as though she didn't know where she was. Luix pressed the advantage and grappled her over, her chest and face pressed to the ground. She mumbled incoherently, putting up almost no resistance. Luis pulled her arms behind her and examined her armor and clothing. It would take about a minute to fully remove her armor, though he may not need to remove everything for what he had in mind.<br/><br/>He grasped her cloak and tore it free, tossing it aside. Leather straps crisscrossed her back, holding her breastplate in place. He began to tug at these.<br/><br/>"Unnnngghhh," she moaned beneath him, squirming. "Wh-what the hell ... are you doing?" she mumbled, trying to turn to see him.<br/><br/>Suddenly, Red began to struggle, but Luix held her firmly down. She fought harder, in a fury, trying to buck him off. Luix pressed down hard, trying to keep her still while he worked to unbuckle the straps at her back.<br/><br/>He had one strap undone when the red beam bounced their way and struck Luix in the chest. He gritted his teeth, feeling a wave of energy pass through him. Once more, he sensed a clouding come over his mind, but he pressed it away. A sweat had broken out on his forehead from the effort, but for the second time he had wrestled the magic down.<br/><br/>Red continued to fight beneath him, but Luix undid the last strap to release the plate covering her chest. The piece of metal fell to the floor beneath her.<br/><br/>She still had greaves covering her shoulders, arms, thighs and legs, as well as a chain and leather skirt. Luix could work to remove these, or he could tear at her crimson blouse. Red was still pinned beneath him, fighting madly.<br/><br/>---------------<br/><br/>Aryn could feel her hold on the hobgoblin's mind slipping. As he rose to his feet, she knew she would have to give it her all. She gritted her teeth, arms extended toward him, and thrust the tendrils of mystic might deeper into his slippery brain.<br/><br/>Sensing the danger he was in, Morgash began to leap across the pillars at Aryn, moving at remarkable speed. However, his haste proved to be his undoing. As he neared, he jumped too far, landing near the far edge of a pillar. His feet slipped and he toppled over the edge.<br/><br/>Deftly, the hobgoblin spun head over heels in the air, falling alongside the pillar. He reached out, running his hands along the smooth, marble surface, slowing his descent. As he hit bottom, his feet contacted the marble floor with a light thud, his body unharmed.<br/><br/>As he landed, though, he felt the pulse of mystic might coming off of Aryn, struggling to regain it's hold over his mind. He fought to maintain control, a war raging in his skull.<br/><br/>He stood still for a moment, his face blank. Then, Morgash collapsed to the ground in a fit of uncontrollable laughter.<br/><br/>OOC: Morgash, once again, you are suffering the effects of Hideous Laughter. No actions are possible besides laughing until further notice.
