The empusa hisses at the two campers, but ignores them, continuing to go after the clearly more weakened teenager.
Failed save. Make another save, this time Wis. “Flee.” Kian orders, pointing at the Empusa.
(Wis save: 26)
If the empusa fails, it snarls and runs off into the woods.
If it doesn't, it lets out a shriek and attacks the kid again, this time bringing him to the ground as he drops his knife and falls to his side.
"GET OFF HIM!"
Flames explode outwards, and the empousa must make a DEX saving throw!
(Dex save: 4)
(Only a +1 to Dex? You'd think empusai would be more nimble...)
*hehe she takes 51* *whoopsies typo instead of 51 it's 45*
The empusai screams in pain as the fire sears her body head to coppery hoof, and runs off into the woods, her metal leg steaming as it turns to copper slag. As the two campers rush to the teen's aid, they notice a few additional details about him, including, but not limited to: eyes as blue as the deep ocean, a smell similar to that of a sea breeze, and a necklace made of shells around his neck. His eyelids flutter as he takes in a gasping breath that soon turns to a wheezing cough. The front of his shirt is sliced to pieces and soaked with blood, and five evenly spaced parallel slash marks run from his left ear to just next to his left eye, a testament to the empusa's attack that brought him to the ground.
Kian rushes over to the camper. “You okay?”
Despite being on the edge of death, the kid looks over his body and sarcastically says in a deep, heavily Midwestern-accented voice, "Just peachy, Mister Sunshine."
“Let’s get you into camp. The Apollo cabin can help with your wounds.”
The kid attempts to stand up, but can't even get his legs under him before he curses in pain. He begins to cough up large amounts blood and then throws up.
“Are you sick too?”
"No, it's just the pain. Now help me up, or else you're gonna have to explain why there's a dead body out in the woods, sunshine."
“What dead body?” Kian helps the kid up.
"Me, in a minute if you don't get me to that cabin you were talkin' about." He bends down and grabs his knife, which he returns to a sheathe attached to his belt. He then shakily begins to walk towards the camp's arch with Kian's help. "What's your name, kid?"
“I’m Kian. How about you?” Kian looks annoyed at being called kid. He leads the boy to the Apollo cabin.

Alex has his armor on, spear in one hand as he duels Selius. Selius clearly has the upper hand, but Alex nearly outspeeds him, the centaur caught off guard by the quick jabs to the flank.
Caleb is on the sidelines, cheering Alex on.
Alex disarms Selius, the centaur then retaliating with a shield blow. Alex is knocked flat on his back, the centaur triumphantly placing a hoof on his chest. “Forfeit, demigod!”
Caleb sighs. “Aww… you almost had him!” He yells to Alex.
Maho is in the arena, continuing his training with Mary from the other day by studying a book on chakram techniques and practicing them on dummies.
Neru is feeding Peleus, studying how he moves his wings and trying to mimic it with her own new shadow made ones.
Chase is watching Maho, practicing with his rapier.
Maho notices and blushes slightly before trying a v cut on a dummy.
“You’re good!” Chase says.
“Heh. Thanks, but you don’t have to be kind. I just started yesterday.” He flips to a new page of the book and takes the stance the image shows.
“Well, you’re good for having just started yesterday. I only use the rapier and bow.”
Maho nods to that. “More traditional weapons. I can respect that. I chose the chakrams cause of all the movies me and my dad used to watch.”
“I use the rapier because my dad gave mine to me.”
He flips to another page and strikes a different stance. “That is fun. Seems like a nice god.” He seems to think Chase’s dad is his divine parent.
“Hermes. Saved my life.”
“Oh.” He pats one of his pockets to make sure something in it is still there. “Saved as in gave it to you or actively stood in the way of a threat?” (Maho has trust issues with kids of Hermes for past thefts and pranks)
“Well, he gave me the sword and then left, but I didn’t have a weapon before that. He also helped me steal something when I was starving, so he saved me from starving to death.”
“Oh, so saved as in gave you help to save yourself.” He shifts his attention to targets instead of the dummies and throw the chakrams at them.
".. You got a name or gamertag I can call ya, lumberjack?"
"Just call me Havoc, everyone else does. What about you?"
"Call me Vin. Short for my tag, Vindicator919."
