SLENDERTHANG STRUGGLES TO STAND AS IT PREPARES TO DO A 4 ABILITY - CHARGE-UP
HERO STEPS FORWARD FOR A 2 ABILITY - COLORFUL INSULT

"You look a little tired," Hero holds the stick before them as Slenderthang approaches in staggering steps. It clearly can't hold on for much longer.

"Why don't you lay down and rest?" Reaching out, Hero lays a hand on Slenderthang's shoulder and suddenly, the entity crumbles into a pile of black particles. The hero jumps up in shock.

"I... I didn't mean it! Rest, don't go towards the light!" They work to scoop up the cosmic dust and deliver Slenderthang to a medic.

@Pisces: That is the spirit! Act first, do the thinking later! Berinhard gives a jolly laugh

ROLLING CLOSED... for now.

Berinhard'll give one more minute to do the rolling, yes?

@Pisces: Still going indeed, my lady! Hero has Slenderthang on ropes, and I am feeling like one more hit will be doing it.

Mm, it went quiet all of the sudden! This is curious... Berinhard strokes his moustache in contemplation

SLENDERTHANG PREPARES ITS NUMBER 3 ABILITY
HERO WINDS UP FOR A 3 ATTACK

Slenderthang spreads darkness over the field in an effort to blind the hero, but Hero holds up their hand to let loose a spell of light. The blackness fades, but Slenderthang is now behind them and lashes out with a flurry of tentacles. Hero spins on their heel and parries, backstepping in tandem...

Slenderthang combines its limbs into one mighty appendage and drives it forward, but Hero slides between its legs and strikes upwards, rolling out from underneath it. Jumping to their feet, they leap forward with another slam to its back. Slenderthang lets out an inhuman scream as magical power pours from the stick and into its body causing cracks of light to shoot outwards for 6 points of damage!

Slenderthang is not down! Its body of darkness is barely intact.

Good battle gets the blood pumping, non?

Berinhard's very excited for the outcome to this!

ROLLING CLOSED.

Hoo, but the 5 is quite the improvement, non?

SLENDERTHANG PREPARES TO STRIKE WITH 3
HERO GATHERS THEIR ENERGY FOR 3

Slenderthang teleports around the ring with the hero focused in the center, cape blowing in a breeze. Tentacles whip down from above and Hero rolls to the side, just narrowly avoiding them as they crash into the floor.

Slenderthang reappears behind them and constricts them in its limbs, and the hero lets out a cry. The area darkens with malevolent energy as the hero's life starts to drain for 1 point of damage! Hero feels like their next attack will be weakened.

Hero braces themselves to discharge a wave of paralyzing force that blasts Slenderthang back and briefly stuns it. Gripping the stick, Hero thwacks it in a speedy combo slash for 11 points of damage!

Ohoo, liking the numbers for this round!

HERO PREPARES A CRITICAL STRIKE! AT DOUBLE DAMAGE, 12 POINTS IS INFLICTED.

Hero backflips onto the edge of the ring and holds their stick aloft. Hearing the cries of Volties, they cast a determined gaze onto the Happy Cloud who, at this point, is more a Mad Cloud. The mask barely keeping its form visible floated towards the hero, but it was too late.

Hero gave a shout and a boom of thunder overhead shot a lightning bolt into the stick. Charged up and ready to go, the hero leapt forward and slammed the stick into the cloud's mask. There was a discharge of energy as bolts lashed out over the ring before the mask clattered down to an inactive state.

Hero gave a sigh of relief.
