A couple late night OTF deaths I found strangely satisfying.
Sabotage just arrived.
>
Moving forward, Sabotage gets too close to the rippling, sticky web!
Dozens of silk threads spin into action, ensnaring Sabotage!
>
An Ithzir initiate strides in, her hands clasped before her.
>
An Ithzir initiate places one palm on his chest, and raises the other toward
you!
Particles of dust and soot rise from the ground at an Ithzir initiate's feet as
he releases a pulsating, platinum ripple of energy toward you!

An Ithzir initiate swings a twisted crystal-tipped staff at Sabotage!
AS: +428 vs DS: +343 with AvD: +25 + d100 roll: +94 = +204
A layer of shifting stone absorbs 8 points of damage!
... and hits for 48 points of damage!
You hear several snaps as Sabotage's neck is broken in several places.
* Sabotage drops dead at your feet!
The brilliant luminescence fades from around Sabotage.
Sabotage glances around, looking a bit less confident.
Sabotage no longer bristles with energy.
The layer of stone surrounding Sabotage crumbles away.
The webs dissolve from around Sabotage.
Sabotage seems a bit less imposing.
The shimmering multicolored sphere fades from around Sabotage.
Sabotage appears somehow different.
Sabotage becomes solid again.
The glowing specks of energy surrounding Sabotage suddenly shoot off in all
directions, then quickly fade away.
The tingling sensation and sense of security leaves Sabotage.
The silvery luminescence fades from around Sabotage.
The bright luminescence fades from around Sabotage.
The Ithzir initiate quickly steps back to avoid getting any blood on herself!
>
You utter a light chant and raise your hands, beckoning the lesser spirits to
aid you with the Fire Spirit spell...
Your spell is ready.
>
You gesture at an expansive sticky web.
You hurl a roaring ball of fire at an expansive sticky web!
Portions of the sticky web incinerate immediately in the flame while others
continue to burn slowly.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.

Sabotage just left.
And then a little later....
[Old Ta'Faendryl, Southern Road]
A flight of cracked stone steps lead up the final slope of the hill, ending at
the base of a large tower. A faint breeze brings the sound of running water up
from the river flowing past the base of the hill to the east. Further on a
pyramid, as tall as the hill and nearly as wide, lifts a sparkling white marble
structure high above the city. You also see an Ithzir initiate, an Ithzir
scout that is lying down, an Ithzir herald that is lying down, a greater
construct, an Ithzir adept, an Ithzir janissary that is lying down, a scratched
coin, some vegetation and some invading roots.

[Old Ta'Faendryl, Southern Road]
Trees and brush thicken and grow with an increasingly vigorous appearance along
the edges of the road to the north. To the south, the road is wider, the
sicklier vegetation of the swampy lowlands apparently less able to compete with
its cobbled surface. You also see an Ithzir initiate, a giant sticky web and a
twisted crystal-tipped staff.

A clean miss.
