key quest
The creature is large and cumbersome. It does not really make an effort to evade their attacks, instead relying on its thick skin to do the work that dodging would normally do for others. Still their attacks are brutal, and the ancient guardian yields far more than you would have expected a creature of its size and aggressive visage to. But that is the trouble with time and cages. Some things are allowed to evolve while others merely exist in the damp and the dark.
The claymore slashes into the creatures leg, dodging around thick scales and protrusions of what almost seems to be bark. Thick ruby coloured blood gurgles out as the creature moans unhappily, though its cry is cut short by a blast of fire the scalds its lower limbs near the water and disintegrates the moss upon its back—which given its unearthly cries of pain appear to actually be a part of it, rather than just a symptom of its moist environment.
Somehow despite the flailing, Maea's nail sails true and strikes right into the creature's iris. Black swirls in the electric blue and the creature thrashes and moans in agony. Kristopher's blade strikes against it, but is barred by its bark-like hide and only makes a slight gash.
Raising its feet, it stomps against sending a tremor out through the ground. Maea and Kristopher are knocked to the ground. Unable to see Maea, the creature turns its cloudy gaze towards the ascended and snaps its beak with such force that the man's head is severed from its body. With a haphazard swipe towards Roana the creature is unable to find purchase against her.
Nearly dead now, it bellows loud and unhappily, its limbs pulling into its shell protectively.
All attacks HIT! In response, the guardian stomps the ground sending Maea and Kristopher to their knees. Its attack pulls the spark from Kristopher's eyes, forever darkening the one who had been so bright.
Your initiative order is Roana, Lucas, and Maea. Keep in mind that your 'turn' is only about 6 seconds long. If you try to do too much, your latter actions will be ignored or rolled at disadvantage.
Ending HP
Roana: 100
Lucas: 29
Maea: 27
Kristopher: -26
Monster: 28
