Session 102: Assault on the Tower Redux (Muffy gets her wings)

With the Coopers defeated, The Lucky Seven knew they only had a brief moment to catch their breath. Balistar’s status was unknown. Was he still holding off the materialization of the Devil's enormous war ships? If he was the group collectively knew he would not last long. With potentially even greater challenges ahead of you, grievous wounds and short time, Malintor cast a spell on Muffy, Rhys, Gram, and Dorn to allow them to recuperate to some degree. While this was happening, Bucky, Mugbug, and Malintor started working on repairing the damaged ship while Rensig and Wardragon kept an eye on the Coopers and any potential incoming dangers-- which seemed to be coming from every direction here in Gracklestugh.

All of you would not fit in this mechanical abberation. It was decided Malintor and Wardragon would try to grab some of the enemies attention while the rest of you were either sleeping in, or piled into the craft with Bucky at the helm. But as this was happening, a very strange occurrence was taking place, Muffy was on fire, silver flame that burned neither her nor anyone near her, still seeming asleep. Bucky with her mind on taking down the tower for the most part ignored this, Mugbug however seemed very concerned, but when Muffy awoke along with the others, she only seemed more powerful,, and strangely different. Somewhat like Muffy before she had died, yet now with glorious silvery fire spectral wings.

Approaching the tower from about 200 feet up, Bucky successfully piloted the craft, not arousing any suspicions of the fact that The Lucky Seven had commandeered it until two Bone Devils approached. In Infernal, in Bucky’s head, they told her she was not allowed to be here, to turn the craft around immediately. Muffy translated, and Rensig, doing his best Gwen Cooper responded that you were under orders from Amon. The ruse partially worked and one of the Bone Devils flew off to check, the other remaining. Getting closer to the top of the tower where the beam was emerging from, the Bone Devil became more and more agitated. It told Bucky top stop or it would attack. While the group was deciding what to say in return, it did just that. The Lucky Seven however were able to handle it--Dorn even leaving the Mechanical Beholder to engage it in mid-air, 200 feet above the ground and a troll bigger than any you had ever seen, killing the fiend with his Vampire Killer whip.

As crowds of imps began to swarm and tear at the vehicle, Muffy summoned her dementors and they destroyed many of the creatures, buying Bucky enough time to shoot a disintegration beam from the Mechanical Beholder into the upper edge of the tower. The Lucky Seven entered and the fight was on. The large space was occupied by several bearded devils guarding the site along with three of the tieflings known as The Eyes of Amon, and one curious type of Devil the group had never encountered. This one large and rotund, with small wings and a seeming self imporantant air about it.

While The Lucky Seven made short work of most of the bearded devils and took down two of the three Eyes of Amon, they were also suffering casualties. Gram was dropped, followed by Bucky. Now--Bucky is currently playing dead, though still reeling from an attack of this new type of devil, unable to see. She is using her blindsight and the teleportation field devices she wears on her wrists to try to figure out the bell like structure she saw one of The Eyes of Amon using. Dorn meanwhile has had his mind completely shattered by this strange corpulent devil, and Gram is once again, on the ground bleeding out. Rensig and Mugbug are doing their best to hold off the entry of more devils from the way that you all came in, and it seems clear that more reinforcements are very well likely on their way. We pick up as the actions of The Lucky Seven and Mugub decide the fate of the entire world.
