<strong>The Yardness of Courtship</strong><br/><em>Laura, Listrata, Tera, Syra</em><br/><br/>Syra continued to be molested by Mass Pleasure Strike's tentacles, cast Fireball at the enemy party and tree, and quickened cast Vanish. With the wide radius of the Fireball spell she managed to catch all of her intended targets inside the area of effect. The unconscious enemies took the full brunt of the blast while the recently revived Cleric and the tree itself managed to avoid the worst of it, tentacles pulling the branches like muscles on a limb to move them.<br/><em>(Reflex saves vs DC 17: Fighter 15, Rogue 14, Wizard 4, Cleric (natural 20 success), Tree 19) (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=123381)<br/>(Fighter, Rogue, Wizard take 31 damage; Cleric and Tree take 15 damage.) (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=123382)</em><br/><br/>Listrata too cast Fireball at the tree. The tentacles having their way with the women suspended from the branches couldn't retract in time and took the blast fully exposed.<br/><em>(Reflex save vs DC 21: Tree 20) (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=123384)<br/>(Tree takes 37 damage.)</em><br/><br/>Laura evaded the Blade Barrier and took up a defensive posture.<br/><br/><em>(Non-posting action)</em>Tera continued to be molested by Mass Pleasure Strike's tentacles for<strong>3 non-lethal damage</strong>and maintained a defensive posture.<br/><br/><strong>The Courtship of Roots</strong><br/><em>Aetherana, Setta, Kimiko</em><br/><br/>Kimiko cast Wall of Fire at the roots of the tree, solving the problem of reflexive roots by brute force saturating the entire area with flame.<br/><em>(Tree takes 24 damage)</em><br/><br/>Setta cast Dragon's Breath at the roots of the tree, turning up the heat yet another notch.<br/><em>(Reflex save vs DC 18: 14) (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=123403)<br/>(Tree takes 29 damage.)</em><br/><br/>Aetherana maintained a defensive posture.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Booms and whoomps shook up the place making clumps of dirt fall from the ceiling as the casters of Zettai Ryouiki brought their heavy artillery to bear. Syra's Fireball washed over the unconscious fighter, rogue and wizard as well as the tentacles fuck-reviving them, incinerating the appendages clean away into ashes. Listrata's Fireball impacted higher up among the branches of the tree where the helpless catives hung, and burnt some of the tentacles there away to the point that they couldn't support their victims any longer, who dropped to the metal grate floor with unhealthy-sounding thuds. On the level below, Kimiko's and Setta's fire spells vaporized the cum in the roots until they couldn't hold in the pressure any longer, and the vessels failed spectacularly in a steam-spunk explosion.<br/><br/>Unlike before, when destroyed tentacles had been swiftly replaced by new appendages to resume stuffing orifices, the bodies on the floor were left alone where they lay. In fact more victims were being dropped like overripe fruit by the second as the tentacles retreated deeper and higher into the husk of the tree trunk, moving upwards towards the ceiling into the darkness beyond the boundary of the party's light sources. The abandoned dead branches hung still and unmoving in their wake.<br/><br/>The cleric turned her back to the adventurers and cast a spell on the tree, which glowed momentarily with a red sheen.<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spellcraft DC 18 to identify the spell for heroines on the upper level</div><div class="spoiler_body">Protection from Energy (Fire)</div></div><br/><br/>The tentacles of force continued to grope Tera and Syra and Eli, not just caressing their folds now but slipping between them, the sensation cool and smooth and slippery, the opposite of the warmth and texture and friction of a living being's finger or tongue or member. They pushed in and retreated, in and retreated, starting a steady, unchanging rhythm.<br/><em>(1d6 nonlethal damage for affected heroines.)</em><br/><br/><hr/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Enemy Status</span><br/><br/>Cleric: >75% hp<br/>Tree: <25% hp
