As she goes to cast her attack, her magic feels weaker than anticipated, disrupting her aim. Her ears ring slightly as her demonic companion swears angrily in her mind, curse that retched priest! She shakes off her failed attack and runs toward the smith, smiling pleasantly despite the situation, "Good morning sir! What's up with the floating armor situation exactly?"
"It's meant for one of the goddamn snake people. I accidentally threw some animating powder onto the armor, and it appears to have put some onto those swords. D'Avit!"
"Is there any way to remove the powder? I wouldn't want to badly damage armor that you spent a lot of time on..."
"The powder soaks into the metal itself, like water into soil. There's no way to remove it. You can either temporarily stop the magic, with magic, long enough to destroy the armor, or you destroy the armor. Destroying the armor is probably the easier way though."
In response to Valvyr's viscous attack, three of the swords flies towards Valvyr, the first two bouncing harmlessly off of his armor, but the last one slashes his underarm.
Vex moves over to a corner of the room with a clear firing angle on the animated armor and lifts his longbow, that is almost as big as he is and fires.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Theron was occupied with trying to carve a moustache with his knife onto one of the soldier figures on the wall which wields a similar glaive as his, so he almost missed the whole fight. Charging into the room he sees that Vex just shot an armor in the "eye" which doesn't have a human inside. He cannot brood too much about it as he notices the flying sword. He rushes towards them, slashing with his glaive and continue the movement to hit them with the other end of his weapon.
Theron, rushing towards the closest sword, swings at the sword. The sword parries, blocking the attack, but the end of Theron's glaive catches the sword on the hilt, slamming it to the ground.
One of the sword's flies to help the first sword, stabbing at Theron.
(7 to hit, fails)
The dwarf picks up a heavily dented shield, covering himself in protection.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Merad rushes towards a flying sword. He lifts his quarterstaff high overhead with both hands and attempts to bring a crushing blow down towards the sword and through to the armory floor.
Valvyr, noticing Circi's missed blast, uses the distraction to his advantage, swinging at the same sword.
(22 to hit, it hits. 6 damage)
Upon Valvyr's hit, two of the swords come together, as if wielded by one invisible swordsman, and slash at Valvyr. Valvyr squats down, dodging the two blades.
(8 to hit, misses)
(11 to hit, misses)
I do believe Vex is next.

"Stay safe my friend."
He then swings his glaive powerfully at the Armor, nearly demolishing it.

Vex moves over to a corner of the room with a clear firing angle on the animated armor and lifts his longbow, that is almost as big as he is and fires.
Longbow: Attack: 18 Damage: 7
That's a hit.
Vex fires the longbow, the arrow flying with pin-point accuracy into the armor's empty eye socket, killing it.

Oof.
Merad brings his quarterstaff down onto the blade of a flying sword, shattering it into dozens of shards of metal.

Circi raises a hand again and launches an eldritch blast at one of the remaining swords.

Valvyr, noticing Circi's missed blast, uses the distraction to his advantage, swinging at the same sword.
