Now I'm sure that it's true
Have no fear, Koa is here!
Koa lands with a solid thump, a heroic cloud of dust rising around his boots. With quick sharp eyes he surveys the scene: Pipsqueak blasting spirals of fire, Zavien lunging in with a knife, the shadow serpent a snapping, eight-foot-long monstrosity ready to make meals of them all.
"Fuck," he repeats through gritted teeth, unclasping the chakram from his belt. "Zav, catch!" he calls to the other soldier, tossing the weapon before stepping to his right. Better a ranged weapon in a fight against the void, and Zavien's dagger seems more likely to become a snack than provide further use.
Skidding to a stop, he picks up a rock and throws it the serpent's way. "Hey, purple! Over here!" Grabbing his own knife from his belt, Koa slashes toward the beast - the beast which is 10 feet away, and thus in range of his newly magically extended reach. He adds a spark of electricity for good measure, hoping it'll do more damage than just the blade. Pip, meanwhile, circles around, another blast of fire licking at the purple scales.
Shadow Serpent (Uncommon): Once a Rock Slider, the Shadow Serpent now moves with an eerie grace, its scales tainted by void energy. It lurks in the shadows, ambushing prey with a venom that induces hallucinations and despair.
and I'm nothing like you
