Something tells me I maybe shouldn't try to grapple a big evil toad-ooze that swallows corpses whole...

Anyone got ideas for a coordinated action?

I've basically only got suicide plays. On the other hand, with my skeletons killing a fuckton of soldiers, I suppose I'm at max PP now.

I think the best I can do is try to hit the B.E.T.O. with touch of death.

B.E.T.O.?
Prak, your character would have already been at full from the necromantic crocodile orgy, so I guess if nothing else there's the defensive blast ice attack. I had thought people would have wanted to engage some of the soldiers on the steps, or at least the resultant monster, so I guess it's good that's on standby?

Black Hand would be one of those aforementioned suicide plays.

The Defensive Blast isn't a bad idea, though... Sure, I'll get into range and let loose a 27d6 cold blast.

Thematically in various East Asian lore, snakes<frogs. I'll consider using my snakey defensive blast while clutching the amulet in my hands.

I remembered 'em. I was hoping you'd check out that staff I saw and if that didn't work I was going to buy a mighty blow with my blinged out sword.

Well, we have found the lovecraftian serpent toad's weakness, and it is massive amounts of cold damage.

In that it appears that Kamoses is acting after having been at -10, I suppose I need clarification as to what the Left for Dead Fate Point option means in this situation. Also, was my guy actually knocked to -10 or not?

Everybody except Kamoses is at -1 HP and stable.

What am I at, exactly? Did my defensive blast go off before I was hit?

I retract my comment on the game thread concerning using a Fate Point.
