(155 HP left)<br/><br/>Serves him/her/it right!  Kass not being strong?  No, she was a Heartwarder trained by one of the best; demons like these posed no true threat to her!  She briefly, she thought, heard Aria compliment her, but as the blows began to rain on the creature, she had to focus in on the other one as it moved, going invisible as the other declared he'd be taking her clothes... and she honestly didn't want to know if these guys liking her armored version of her outfit was good or bad for her taste in style...<br/><br/>A downward claw from the invisible cretin, catching her upper arm on one side, a gap in her armor as she hissed in pain while it declared it would be taking her scalp as a wig... disgusting, and she'd sooner cover herself in alchemist's fire than let<em>that</em>happen!  She avoided every blow and bit of the one behind her though, a more difficult task than the demons made it out to be, but Aria announced that apparently cold iron was the way to go... too bad she didn't have any!<br/><br/>A grin though, and a twirl of her blade as she focused her mind, a quick spin that seemed showy, but with the spinning blade it served as quite an excellent shield.  It truly seemed she was starting to dance in the middle of combat, and when she completed her spin she was facing the unwounded babau, one hand out stretched at the end as she cast forth her spell.<br/><br/>"I think you need to<em>hold</em>your horses and<em>stay</em>your hand!" she said, still grinning, because if this worked they'd only be working on just one of the Babaus...<br/><br/>Okay, so, as a Standard she's casting Hold Monster on the uninjured one, DC24 Will since it's enchantment, and I'm forgoing my move action this round so Aria gets the flanking bonus, even if she doesn't do SA damage.  Because of Melodic Casting, I automatically succeed my Perform check to Cast Defensively by taking a 1, and since it has SR here is my check against it using CL18: At 2011-01-06 08:54:37, Keelan (uid: 15533) rolls: 1d20a18 Result: 26 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=21323)<br/><br/>Hope this works, but I don't imagine these things as having a good Will Save...
