<If it can be killed, it's not invincible, just significantly less vincible than most things. Use a dictionary.>

"Eh, a little. That's ignoring the point. There's plenty of stronger heroes, more versatile, less destructive. Why him? It's the Six's choice. The heroes--"

I could just leave the battle. I think there's a critter I can shapechange to that has a good swim speed. The Varag has a land speed of 60ft. Or the Avariel Elf, then I could just fly away.

If I'm not mistaken, I'm the only who's actually done anything of import in the battle so far, even if it's only minor scratches to the nigh-unstoppable killing machine. No need to get critical.

Um...my point was that you going underwater would probably negatively affect your ability to contribute.

I could just summon creatures or something. Maybe throw my spear some, depending on Remuthra's ruling on 2-foot steps.

<Ah. You know, Kyle, I was making fun of Nuriel's attitude, and implying bodily fluids, no the other way around.>

Can you change anything in the battle from underwater?

P.S. Instead of a five-foot step, can I take two two-foot steps?

Since no one has gotten hurt yet, advertise my services in town, hoping to earn a little spending/researching/food money through healing people.

<I hurt people for making fun of others over bodily functions.>

No response, since Will removed his bracelet.

He retrieved it from the guy, whose convulsions started to look more deliberate.
<I'm sorry, defending my right to wear a bracelet. Had to be something obvious, not a nice amulet...Did anyone say anything in the past minute or so?>

<I swear, if I have to come over there and put some drastic distance between you two, I'll make sure you don't wake up for a couple weeks.>

<Definitely something said in the past minute or so.>

I love how y'all are commenting on how not-tough they are because it only took a miniature volcano to scare them off.

Actually, the big one was this:

You turn around, spotting the flaming demon-beast thing flailing at Cyrus. You growl and heft up your staff! (5+1, 3) With an almighty crack, your staff slams into the beast’s arm, crunching through the arm and into the ribs. There’s a horrific snapping sound as the beast’s humerus shatters like glass and its ribs cave inwards, slicing the poor thing’s right lung into so much casserole. The dying, flaming beast is launched sideways; it smashes into another one of the creatures and both go tumbling into the undergrowth. You set yourself and wait for the inevitable counterattack when the whole place suddenly flares up with a fiery light...

Although this:

(2+1, 6) You stumble as you swing, so your swipe only nicks the one creature’s foot. You brace for the shock, but nothing happens. Weird...The critter leaves itself open to a counterstrike! (5+2, 5) With a swipe you take both of its ragged, dirty hands off before booting it in the chest. It flies backwards, slams into a tree and just sorta… explodes. Holy shit.

certainly contributes.
