[Quiet Man Cometh]

Plan B

step 1: jump out window.
step 2: plummet.
step 3: hope the Celestrine is better than Thomas at putting bodies back together.

Well, if the fire tornado (awaiting a response from Suze to add to) catches the thing at ~40-50 meters (exploding in the air) and we jump the 100 meters, by the formula S/(4*pi*r^2) and (I think) S = J, we will experience about 1.5 kJ of energy, which is barely survivable...

[Espy]

I thought it was 100 /feet/?

Also you're forgetting the thing depends on having oxygen to burn. If there's no oxygen, it won't explode. Also, Tarja could toos up a psychic shield. Dante's telekinetic powers are mediocre at best, but he'd be willing to do everything short of dying again to save the party from being wiped.

[Lawtan]

Feet?
Shiitake Mushrooms...
Oxygen, I forgot about (assuming open space as a detonation/missile would hit ceiling...)
How can a shield be formed if feeling is absent?

Post raised up. 3.5 hellhounds dead...and Kadia is in hell version alpha (will someday get better at writing hell)

[Espy]

By the time we're out of the window/building, we should be fine. It's getting to the actual outside that's the problem. Also, "how can a shield be formed" isn't exactly a good question when Kadia and Dante are able to do the things they're doing.

By the way...erm. I think she might have been just a bit too overpowered there, but that's for Suze to decide.

[Lawtan]

Suze gave the okay...and added a wounding to Kadia...

[Espy]

Oh. Alright then. I wouldn't have expected her to have been so easily able to bring down a hellhound o.o;

[Lawtan]

...there are (8, I think) left...and there is a type 7 focused tornado...and a type 3 fire whirl in the vicinity...and a net built to kill these sort of beasts... Tornado killed 2, net 1, and the fire whirl is damaging the fourth...
(Yes, this is overpowered, but Kadia is going to be suffering about this for a while, if not lose her body to this completely)

[Suzerain of Sheol]

She really shouldn't have been able to do that, but... I don't want a TPK here, so I'm letting it pass.

Alas, we don't have a sane theurge at the moment to teleport us out of here...

[Lawtan]

Sorry...
I don't know how else to fix things...
A fire tornado to affect/destroy the missile, and a tornado to kill a few of the hellhounds...

[Espy]

(I HAVE mentioned before, not related to this RP but all the same -- You don't have to try to fix everything by yourself, especially if it's not your personal fault. No one's gonna hate you for not being able to overcome all the problems. Some things are too big for just one person to handle, and that's what friends are for.)

[Lawtan]

Mind if I set up a vote: Does Kadia lose her arm, her body, or her life?

From what I understand, the situation she has created would destroy her body in this world (and...hadn't thought about how the strain alone should have put her in stroke or cardiac arrest...again, sorry)

However, I am not sure how people would feel about mixing Rurik with Kadia into...a robotic human...dog...thing (admittedly weird in its own right) or if I should just let them be the casualties of war.

Kadia was injured at the end of my post, so control is at best faltered if not completely gone - wildfire and a tornado shredding itself apart sending rocks flying at random.

Were Kadia to lose her body or life, she would go out as a martyr and buy time/space from the threats to the party. She is sort of set up for this, as that was where I was leaning when I wrote the post in which she created the tornadoes (The situation at the time spurring it on). Also, in reality, this situation was not built to survive without loss of party members (and soldiers).

[Suzerain of Sheol]

No one is under any obligation to kill their character if they don't want to (I'm hedging killing Diogenes at this point). I'd *personally* like something like having a Hound bite straight through her clavicle and tear most of her shoulder and arm off if you really want to grievously harm her without killing her but just a suggestion.

And there wouldn't be an ethical issue with her soul inhabiting Rurik's frame, soul-cyborgs are a thing after all. As before, Thomas only objected on the grounds of it being a "degrading" inhuman shape.

It's up to you completely, Lawtan. You're always welcome to start a new character if that's what you'd like, but it's perfectly okay to keep her going (in any fashion you might decide). But my vote is for dramatic injury but not death.

Also, I just wrote a whole lot of Diogenes doing nothing. :|

[Espy]

Uh, just to make it clear, Dante's making a mad dash for the Crown.

[Lawtan]

Umm...just as long as he dodges the destabilizing twins of destruction...and (7?) hellbeasts...
...
Kadia, mind if I break your back, tear off your arm, and puncture a few meaty bits?

*Gulps*

[Espy]

Also, those flame whirlwinds are probably about as bad as the bombs themselves. Just a note.

And not all of those hellhounds are going to be focused on him. Neither does he intend on wearing it unless he absolutely has to.
