"EH?" the dragon roared as it saw and felt its illusion wink out, twisting its head to peer down at the bardess it'd just flown over. "Just for that, you 'buxom lasses' shall be more than a meal: after you are out cold, the next spell I shall work upon myself shall be to polymorph into a man."<br/><br/>The dragon had folded its wings in to let itself fall down to the sand abruptly, grunting a bit under its own weight, and kicking up ripples of sand like a small localized earthquake Kass could feel. At the completion of its taunt, it drew in one more breath and spewed a new white-hot and, well, lightning-fast bolt of electric energy at the bardess.<br/><br/>Aria had swooped at it as soon as the illusion fell, drawing a kukri in her previously arrow-holding right hand and slashing back and forth across the long, thick neck. Bluish-red blood crackled and popped with static as it gouted into the air, propelled geyser-high by the strong draconic heart deep within. The tiefling even seemed to land upon the dragon's shoulders for the briefest moment, kicking a bootheel against the back of its neck with to echoing sound of crunching vertebrae, ere she pushed off again.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Dispel successful (and great move IMO).<br/><br/>Dispel Magic isn't stopped by SR (the "Spell Resistance: No" line in its SRD entry is what indicates this).<br/><br/>Also, spellcasting spells with somatic components requires a free hand, so she'd need to draw the bow after casting the spell, since she has the sword in her other hand, right?<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Aria</span><br/>draw kukri, cast lion's charge (from gloves, 1/5) and haste (from boots again, 5/10), charge.
