Odysseus attempts to catch the falling bird lady!

18 attack, athletics 5

crap

Odyesseus manages to get a hold of the harpy and tries with all of his might to slow Saida's decent but his small wings dont seem to make much difference as she continues to fall.

Sylas will Dash to where Saida is going to hit the ground and attempt to catch the Harpy.

30 feet + Dash. So 60 feet to get under where the harpy will hit.

It is going to take an athletics check to catch her. Catching her will also reduce any damage she takes but if nothing slows her she will still take damage. (Slowing her will reduce by half and catching her will reduce by half so if she is slowed and you catch her she will take 0 damage from the fall)

((I can only try to catch her, I have nothing that can slow a fall))

Athletics: 18

Sylas manages to get under the falling harpy, ready to catch her when she reaches the ground (we will see what Zin does before we go forward)

Redy to catch and immediately sink a Point of Lay on Hands into her.

I think she has like 13 total HP, so I would let ya do that but if she takes like.. 20 damage from the fall she is still pera-dead. Not that I wanna see that but I am trying to be fair 

((Between the damage from the blow (that would bring her to 0) and the fall damage I think Saida's basically guaranteed a goner to be fair. Probly shoulda thought through making a squishy character with no ranged attacks tbh, rip,,,,

So as the harpy plummets to the ground, the dread warrior is able to position himself under Saida and manage to catch the harpy before she slams into the dirt. As the unconscious creature hits his armored arms, he can hear the sound of her bones crack but he immediately infuses life into her and heals her for 4 damage as Odysseus lets go of her clothes and flutters nearby. 

The Spined devil proceeds into the portal and it disappears on a blink and loud clap of thunder. Saida has 4hp and combat is over. Post at will!

Sylas, Weakened by the encounter falls to a knee as he catches the harpy. The blue glow that seeps from the eye holes of his helm and various holes in his armor barely there at all. Using what remains of his power to insure the harpy does not meet a tragic end. 

After a moment the Dread warrior drops the harpy and stands upright, Why did he save the harpy? He didnt care about them or their well being so why did he do it? It just felt like the right thing to do, Like he had done it before. (So begins Sylas' switch from neutral evil to True neutral.)

The hollow voice from the helm isnt out of breath, More weakened like the supernatural force that holds him together is weak. "We...Need to move." 

((Any chance Sylas can find some more Javelins around?)) 

Sylas is able to recover 4 of the 5 javlins he through without any issues, the 5th one is long gone. you can roll a perception check to try to find more on the dead from the fight that took place earlier.

Saida would sit up, rubbing her body with a pained groan. Hesitating, she gave Sylas a brief nod. "...Well, I certainly owe you one." Had she misjudged the dread warrior? She still wasn't so certain, though she had to admit she was grateful. She would check around for any weapons better than her club, especially ranged weapons. Perception: 21 Once that was done, she would head over to check on the human boy. "Pine? We're going to head out," she said, kneeling down near him. "If you come with us, I can't promise your safety, but if you stay here and Draax comes..."

Sylas gathers the four javelins and looks for more!

Perception: 20

Zinn, rather impressed by Sylas' rescue of the falling harpy, calls out, "A fine catch, armored one! And somehow you managed not to impale her on your plethora of spikes. Well done."

Watching the spined devil vanish through the portal, Zinn mutters, "Bloody coward." 

He then makes a quick flight over the battlefield, looking for javelins, or anything else that might come in handy (Perception: 9)

Zin manages to find 2 javelins and a spear while Sylas manages to find 4 more javelins. Saida manages to find a pretty nice looking longbow on one of the elves as well as an pretty good looking quiver that appears to have twenty arrows inside as well as a few slings and shortbows. When Saida kneels down near where Pine had been hiding, she quickly realizes that he is no longer there. As she peers around the area for weapons she does spot him in the distance hiding behind a bush. 

"Seems I'll be needing this more than you will," she murmured, taking the longbow and the arrows. It seemed a waste to leave meat lying about—after all, these were people anymore—but she didn't want to traumatize Pine, and she didn't have a carving knife anyway. She would walk towards the bush he was hiding behind, stopping a few feet away in case the fight had made him skittish again. "Are you alright little one? Did you take any hits?"

"Those demons... They... they were like you all.. well... before you all changed" The young boy would say before clinging to the leg of the harpy. "I am fine... I just... I want to find my aunt..." he says with a sigh.

Odysseus flies and grabs the stick. Vey pipnf dake it, goop. Noy, wer wos wer anf agin?

So the enemies are dead but Draxx knows now that you all are free from his control and that you killed some of his minions. You are all pretty sure that he will return... and in greater numbers.. so you may want to leave soon. You guys were able to fly above the trees and know which way to go to get out of the forest but it will be kind of slow moving and may take most of the day walking to get out.
