Continue Salix as state previously. He will call lightening on the more damaged of the pair of creatures.

Harp, blissful in his ingnorance of what has happened behind him (and having shouldered his bow and drawn his sword) continues running toward the base of the towers.
OOC: If he can get there this turn, he will head up the tower that does not have Maximus, feeling that the other group of legionaires may need some help.

OOC: Neither of the options I stated said that Ran would go to the Lady. He wouldn't waste the fly spell only going that little distance when the lady has already disappeared anyway. Can you retcon that so that he gets as close as he can to the battle, helping the Legionaries.

I can do that. It will be this weekend though.
Which side does he want to go help?

Ragnar's done casting spells for now so he'll just charge on up the stairs.

Allistair tries to think while all the chaos is going on around and above him. That mage just teleported away! And he's flying and tossing out fireballs. He's at least as powerful as I am, if not more so. So why did he shoot the fireball at the Lady de Blum? If the attack is military in nature, attacking her is tactically unwise. He should have gone for Maximus, or our group. She's not a military target, so perhaps this attack is political in nature? ... Perhaps he was trying to assasinate the Lady and the rest of the battle is a diversion?
Allistair isn't sure, but he has a strong suspicion that that Lady de Blum is the real target, and so he will try and protect her. He will move next to her and asses her situation. "Lady de Blum? I have a suspicion that the wizard that is flying around may have a been specifically targeting you. Can you move? We need to hide you."
Allistair's decision on what to do with the Lady will be dependant on how capable she is of moving and how cooperative she is.

You cannot see her. The spot where she was is empty.

The side that Maximus is on.

OOC: Retcon some of that. I missed the line where the Lady disappeared.
IC: Allistair tries to think while all the chaos is going on around and above him. That mage just teleported away! And he's flying and tossing out fireballs. He's at least as powerful as I am, if not more so. So why did he shoot the fireball at the Lady de Blum? If the attack is military in nature, attacking her is tactically unwise.

Allistair isn't sure, but he has a strong suspicion that that Lady de Blum is the real target, but she just disappeared. An invisibility spell? Teleportation? Perhaps a potion or wand of some kind? This Lady seems to be carrying a lot of magic for a simple diplomat.
Ally calls out to the Lady. "Lady de Blum, can you hear me? If so, and you can make your way over to where I am, I can help you hide and stay out of danger until this battle is over."
If the Lady responds and comes next to him (assuming she is invisible), he will cast Rope Trick and instruct her to climb inside. "Just pull the rope in after you and close the window. No one will be able to locate you, magic or otherwise. Just wait until one of us comes and gets you."
If Ally gets no response from the Lady, he will shoot a fireball at the flying mage if he can do so without endangering Mund. If that is not possible, then he will cast Shield on himself and hide behind cover.

Does Ran see where the Lady is, or is this a error on your part Mark?

Kal charges up the stairs to join in the battle against the giants. He will apply his full dodge bonus to his AC, and try and take a flanking position against the creature. He will of course avoid any AOO's, but since the creature is blinded I assume that's not a problem.
From: Mark
Subject: Where is she
Small errror. However, Randy has contacted me and let me know that Ran would not have gone to protect the Lady but instead have gone to help Maximus.
I will be writing a short retcon tomorrow.
I need to do these turns earlier in the evening before I am so tired. :)

Mark, I just wanted to say that I think this battle is really interesting with the aerial combat, battlements, etc. I think this is also the first time we've fought against a wizard, which makes it an interesting challenge.

Allistair has gone soft in all his years in the city. Don't worry about Mund -- blast the sucker!

Merdok! Stupid magicker!
Mund lets out a roar which sounds odd to his ears attacks the air with his wings, chasing after that weasel mage as fast as he can.
