OOC: As random question does Arthfael have the blade and the souls what he captured with shadowblade already spend on something useful? What comes to holy word (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/holyWord.htm), according SRD it is good and sonic effect. So no demon or devil could resist it with just 'resist sonic' but anyone immune to sonic dmg and effects rofls over it. Also meaning silence spell blocks it. Just remember my fallen celestials are +12 level clerics spellcasting wise so they have can of whoop ass in spell department too :P.<br/><br/>Arthfael feels uncomfortable blaze from the two gates when two celestials walk through, he is not injured by energies. Him made from tougher stuff than that to harm him. But it proves the whatever cleric is in temple is major foe and likely causes lots more trouble if left standing anywhere before Elminister and Seven Sisters arrive and they are more major foes anyway.<br/><br/>When celestial makes his threats Arthfael chuckles and says;<strong>"Bring it Pahaliah! You too Ramliel! Already you two promise great deal of fun what I have got for a long while!"</strong>Arthfael worst enemy in abyss was not challenges and fellow demon princes but boredom. So he channels his magic on his blades in scabbard to enchant them on maximum and raising both hands up and giving crouching fingers to both celestials while he remains medium sized human and says;<strong>"Bring your steel and show how you wield it champion of Triad!"</strong>With increased awareness to battle Arthfael takes stance which makes him one allied to flame, making him immune to any 'divine fire' magics what these duo may conjure and only divine portion scorch and harm him possibly. Depending can they hit him properly.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Actions</div><div class="spoiler_body">I assume this is pre-battle battle taunting so Arthfael uses greater magic weapon on his enchanted scabbard and splits it up so all blades get +5 quality for 4 minutes. This takes standard action.<br/><br/>Then as swift action take Flame's Blessing stance so he is immune to fire....so now he is universally immune against all elemental dmg, sonic, mind-affecting, fear and polymorph and also have freedom of movement and mettle (sorry, no evasion, I seem made small mistake in my build even if my guy's best save is reflex). Also able reverse one round of actions and start over if he wants to (but he would save it for Elminister unless these two do something what croaks him). Also he takes Robillar's gambit stance as free action so +4 to hit and dmg vs him (and free AoO for each and every attack the duo makes vs him in melee).<br/><br/>Still AC 78 although not sure does unholy aura increase it to 82 (I doubt it) nor resistance bonus does not stack with vest what he has.<br/></div></div>
