HOW || Actionspam

[ Having spent months scrying on areas of the Island scouted out by Sir Bancroft and Sir Chessing, Hasmed is able to send a few groups to the Island via greater teleport spells, with a fairly small margin for error, as to where they're going to land. The Shadowkind prison teams land flawlessly, and the very big group appears in a clearing in the middle of the woods, abruptly finding themselves surrounded by trees and mostly darkness. The moon is in its last quarter, and with the trees so thick above them, there are only patches of light that filter down here and there. Those with darkvision or lowlight vision can see perfectly, but anyone with normal vision may find themselves squinting to see much of anything.

The teleport spell only works if the entire group is physically connected, so when they arrive, Wolverine yanks his hand off Nathan's shoulder, and gives Drax a Look like stop touching me if you value your hand. Eric runs his Drakenet app to determine their location, then announces: "Dead on." In other words, no spell mishap sending them miles off target. Beside them all, Lan's mount, Daisy, stamps her feet slightly, obviously unnerved by the magic. He whispers "Whoa, there" and reins her in, causing her to settle. ]

[ lan meets her look with a sharp one of his own, looking poised for all the worst reactions from his teammates and clearly defensive about it before anyone even says anything.

when she doesn't, however, he simply nods, and moves past her, armor clanking, to pick up his sword. ] We've no time to waste.

[trebond]

[ There's going to be a talk, Lan. You're not getting out of a talk with the Old (Wo)Man Club. But now's not the time, not when Wynn's looking for support. She sets off with him to the North, drawing her blade once more. ]

[familybusiness]

[Sam follows after them, giving Lan a passing glance before he focuses on what's coming.

Werewolves having control over their change is new to him, too.

So he'll distract himself by...loading a new clip in his Excalibur as they move.]

[asuma]

[Moseying along tbh. Y'all need to relax.]

[msattentionspan]

[Well... shit. Faith got shot a second time on this mission, but thankfully somewhere in there she noticed Gus waving her over and she'll manage to get herself to him and hopefully get some healing before they head out... again.]

[druidisms]

[ yep, +10 hp for you, faith lehane. get it. as they move off to see the wizard, he drifts over to clap lan on the shoulder. solidarity, surly bro. ]

[technophobic]

[ he cautiously meets gus' eyes - and there's almost an apology in his own. he doesn't say anything at the moment, however, raising his voice to address the group instead, as they troop on. ] If Wynn's group is in need of aid, we're going to want to prepare. I can bless four of your weapons - those going into melee would be best to take it. [ he nods to jaime, klaus, and faith, for certain ] Alanna, I know your blood boils to fight, but we'll likely need you to be keeping us alive, not in the front lines. [ to sam: ] I can bless that cannon of yours all the same.

[lionbrave]

[Jaime nods gravely.] I would appreciate the aid.

[Then he turns to Alanna because he is the actual worst and adds:] And you needn't worry, my lady. We'll protect you.

[trebond]

Oh, stuff it.

[ Alanna seethes at him, reaching forward to shove him back by the front of his armor plates. Turning away from him, she offers a nod to Lan. This is too serious to let Jaime Lannister's snide remarks keep her from doing what she well knows is best. ]

I'll see to it that you all come out of this alive. [ To the others: ] If there's anyone who's adverse to holy magic, you'd do well to warn me now. [ Aren't you glad she burned Spike first. ]

[familybusiness]

[Sam gives Lan a nod. Supernatural solidarity. There's things about himself he's not comfortable with too, and it's easier to see it in other people when you know how it feels.]

Anything that you think will help.

[asuma]

I'd do just as well without the blessings and holy magic, I think.

[Because he's not trying to gimp himself ok.]

[technophobic]

In that case, may as well prepare the lass after all. [ lan murmurs a quick prayer to helm over each of their weapons, which will effectively make them good-aligned. all those weapons can therefore cut through the massive damage reduction on the ember guards wooo ] If anyone has any other spells to fortify our forces before we arrive, ye best do so now.

[druidisms]

Shit outta luck 'til I know what we're dealing with. [ he's not casting any resistance or protection spells until he knows what against. but that's fine, he can cast on the fly. ]

[trebond]

Just a moment.

[ Alanna sheathes her blade and brings her hands together in front of her. As she lowers her head, a violet aura surrounds her. In turn, that violet aura resonates around everyone in this thread, bestowing them with bless (+1 on attack rolls and saving throws vs fear effects).

Opening her eyes, she draws her sword. ]

May the Goddess' hand rest on all of us.

[technophobic]

[ lan bows his head in respect at the blessing, and even adds gravely: ] Amen.

[ he hefts his sword in hand, and points ahead ] Onward, we march!

[ new init plurk incoming to mix into the other group soon here ]
