The Mini-Adventure!

[Marvelous Miscreant]

"Which one of you losers is in charge here!?!?!" I shout as I cut down Cultists.

[Mik_Hael]

I make my way through the crowd of cultists towards the alter causing minor amounts of chaos and confusion with illusions as me and my demons pick them off, I get closer and closer to the head cultist.

[Zaleramancer]

The head cultist looks down on the chaos and frowns.

I says a few words in the demonic tongue, and a dome of black energy surrounds both him and the altar.

[Philote]

I stack a series of arrows on my bow, and send a volley into a group of cultists with my multishot. Melded with the shadows, I have the freedom to focus on sending arrow after arrow while the cultists deal with the more visible threats. Hopefully once I've cleared enough of the minor cultists, someone like the spellsword can use their magic to open the dome.

[Mik_Hael]

I order the tiger headed demon to start tossing Cultists at the dome as hard as it can.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I see the dome form from my postion. I slowly fight my way towards it.

[Zaleramancer]

The demon makes a sound like a laugh, and starts throwing cultists.

As they strike the dome, dark lightning flashes and they rebound off and lay on the ground jerking around spasmodically.  After a few cultists strike it, the dome begins to sputter and fade slightly.

[Mik_Hael]

"Keep it up, It's working!" I ell to the tiger demon, then I turn to the Shade that is massacreing the cultists and command him to come closer. "Shade, do you know of a faster way to get past this barrier?"

[Zaleramancer]

The demon tilts it's head for a second.

Then it merely turns to face the dome and reaches out. The Shadowy demon's arm stretches and bends, and one finger extends to tap the dome.

A ripple goes through it.

Tap.

The dome flickers and roils.

Tap.

The dome shatters like glass to reveal the head cultist, who raises a hand. The shadowy demon is send back screaming as a bright light bursts from the head cultist's hand.

The demon flees to the hallway, hissing angrily.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I finnaly reach the head cultist as the dome shatters. I raise my blade and charge the cultist.

[Mik_Hael]

As soon as the dome dissipates I roll foward and attempt to sweep the leggs of the priest while ordering the tiger demon to attack. "Don't worry shade, Ill let you finish this guy off personally for that."

[Zaleramancer]

The head cultist claps his hands together, and a sound like a thunderbolt echos out. Marv, Scurros and several other cultists are send flying backwards.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I fly through the air but manage to land on my feet.

"I'm sensing a theme here....And it keeps ending with me flying throuhg the air."

I Stand up and Allow magic to course through my blade.

[Mik_Hael]

I flip and land several yards away. "Darn it." I take the guitar and staff in hand and charge towards the priest again."

[Zaleramancer]

The head cultist raises both hands, and lightning leaps from them at Scurros and Marv.

[Mik_Hael]

I quickly role out of the way holding the staff up in defence, and call the demons in to make a diversion.(it's made of wood, I'd just be electricuted by he guitar.)

(If I'm not dead I continue to advance forward.)

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I stab my blade in the ground to act as a grounding rod then roll away from it.

[Philote]

Seeing the head Cultist giving my allies trouble, I shoot an arrow towards his foot, hoping it is below the range of his wards.

[Zaleramancer]

The lightning is absorbed into the staff, which starts to hum.

---

The other lightning bolt strikes the sword, turning the entire thing red with heat, before it dissipates.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I wait for my blade to cool before attempting to pry it from the ground.
