<strong>"Ah, I see.  In that case, I can't help but think that an outright snowstorm would have served your purposes better."</strong>Demi-Fiend responded to the two servants, having some guesses as to what specific spell was cast already.<strong>"I'm guessing the seasonal weather we were having beforehand limited the available choices a bit, though.  I wonder if one of our allies will take this cold weather and turn it into something more debilitating?"</strong><br/><br/>Any further speculation was cut short, however, by the arrival of a silver-haired woman on a horse.  Between the ultimatum and the almost casual way in which she used the death of a Molydeus to accentuate her threat, it was pretty clear that she was one of the more powerful of the local defenders.  Probably one of the seven sisters, from the look of her, and if she was, then she would most likely be Storm Silverhand, who actually lived in Shadowdale and could thus be counted on to arrive quickly on the scene of any major encounters in the area.<br/><br/>It was pretty clear that a battle was building up, and given the demonic armies that were undoubtedly invading even now to the west, Demi had little doubt that this woman had brought some form of backup to confront the fiends on the eastern edge of town.  Anything less would have been a suicidal display of stupidity.  So, joining in on the essential pre-fight banter, the diminutive fiend also kept a close lookout on their current surroundings, trying to see if any of the woman's allies might be hiding just out of sight.<br/><br/><strong>"I may just be a simple Demi-Fiend, but I rather object to being lumped in with the rest of the dredges."</strong>And if she didn't find anyone else hanging around, that just meant that they were probably going to be teleporting in...<strong>"Not even a little devil like me would be caught hanging about with demons like that one."</strong><br/><br/>((Demi-Fiend's Senses: Listen +59, Spot +69, mindsight 100 ft., omnidirectional vision (extends into ethereal plane), omnidirectional true seeing (Robe of Eyes and Helm of True Seeing), See in Darkness (Su), darkvision 120 ft.<br/><br/>Feel free to roll for me, if a roll is needed.))<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Demi-Fiend's Forces</div><div class="spoiler_body">One (1) Pleasure Devil Demilichfiend of Possession Wizard-Marshal, 22 HD. :P</div></div>
