"Well look at that, so much for a champion of holy and goodness." Leon retorted as he took a step forward, the dagger still protruding from his underarm. "It looks like this is the end." He swung his sword down upon the warlock but it bounced off of an invisible force.
Tear, trying her best to keep her magic focused conjured a wall between the two to by her some time. sweat pouring off her brow She called to Roxanne. "Try to figure out something I'll keep him distracted!" She panted as she called a spell from her hand. A column of flame erupted from below him. Leon actually grunted. He felt pain, the fire searing his flesh.
(I know that if the lung was there their may have been something like that, this was a rather interesting read though http://militarythoughts.blogspot.com/2004/08/this-is-coolbert-interesting-program_12.html)

(I think I should cover this first since Eric's supposed to be actively fighting, lol.)
Eric tried to stop the swollen Paladin, but it appeared that no matter what he or anyone said she was going to stay as much on the offensive as she possibly could. Now she was injured. He had to help her some how, his attacks were failing him. The others were going to get bigger if they kept at this pace with their magic.
He charges forward and strikes with a set of three rapid stabs. On the third, he stabs the blade into the dirt below and presses Leon's defenses with a short ranged shoulder tackle. His lance used as a break to swing him around out of Leon's range and parry should he decided to counter-attack.
Meanwhile, Bela stepped forward beside Roxanne. She was quite angry with the death knight for betraying her. No one betrays this disguised queen! At once did she summon a hail of large shards of ice above her head to fire upon him.

(Link is broken, but maybe I'm thinking of lung. I just know its a bad spot to get hit. xD)
"Hardly any fame or glory in attacking a group of expectant mothers Dad." Roxanne counters, still flinching at the impact of his weapon despite Tear's shielding spell.
He must have some sort of magic protecting him from holy fire, Roxanne realized. Lets see how he handles unholy fire.
Taking a step back (and widening her stance for the impending growth), Roxanne shot off a beam of fire. Not towards the death knight, but rather the steel knife embedded in his chest. Superheated fire made contact and the knife quickly began to turn to boiling slag, both inside and out.

The combination of the strikes from Eric were easily blocked with his armour but the knife embedded with him made the death knight howl with pain. His daughter knew that sometimes the only way to fight fire, was with fire. While he wanted to finish them all off. He called one last spell, The ground around him surged with energy as he let the last fragment of his mortal body explode with magic as his spirit went out back to a place where he could recoup in safety.
Bela pants as the dust clears from where Leon was once standing. Now there was nothing left save for residual magic and Eric's dagger. "Did we, beat that son of a *****?" She questions. Inside she was absolutely livid. No one betrays Belandra and gets away with it. Her plans of world domination be damned, her priorities were on destroying an would be competition first and protecting her own kingdom.
"Yeah, I think so" Eric responds, he himself was getting up from being forced one knee from the blast and using in lance to stabilize himself. He looked around to see if everyone was okay. Eclipse looked worse for words, but the cerberus was able to stand on four legs and stayed at Roxanne's side, one of his head's in constant view of Eric. "What a day it's been...why would anyone want to attack us?"
"I'm not sure, but he seem hellbent on a certain Warlock. Even you too, Eric." Adds Bela, eying Roxanne. Not even she knew about this. Roxanne was his spawn? And yet somehow, she was not surprise this was how she turned out.

Mina waddled over to see what the big powdery explosion was. For the most part the remaining undead army had been dealt with. What ever hadn't already been burned to the ground was currently on fire. and what ever wasn't on fire wouldn't be that way long given that the burning zombies had a tendency to bump into each other. "are we done? Cause, I kinda don't want to get any bigger, i feel ready to pop." Mina said, her belly had grown considerably over the battle, though that wasn't unusual since everyone else had grown as well. She waddled over to the pile of dust and the knife. "wow, and I thought my fire was over kill." She joked. She's squat down and poke at the pile, her face reflecting her going deep into thought.
In combination of her father's explosive exit and exhaustion, Roxanne sank to her knees, the weight of her large belly somehow keeping her upright. What little snow that remained on the battlefield had been turned to muddy slush while the rest had been quickly melted by all the holy and unholy fire that had been flung about.
"What little I know of my father was handed down to me from my mother and even she didn't know alot about him." Roxanne stated, holding her burnt hand to her breasts while the other gingerly petted her injured cerberus. "I have theories but my guess is he hates me because I turned out to be female rather then male."
Eclipse growled at Mina's callus poking of the dust that was Roxanne's father but could do little to stop her in his present state.
Eric follows after Mina and the rubble and returns his knife to his side. The blade appeared to still be glowing with Roxanne's magic. You really shouldn't be touching that, never know what will happen. Your fire is overkill too. You did your fair share of keeping the undead away, and it shows. You going to be alright?" He looks between her and Roxanne, and soon the other females of the group. They couldn't keep battling like this is still stay mobile. Something was going to give, and he assumed it to be the horses.
"You must have really bad parental issues." Muttered Bella. She sighs and looks over to the carriage. "I don't think that carriage is going to be useful anymore after that battle."
"Huh?" Mina said, looking up from her distraction. "Oh right uhh, sorry just. Well not often you come across some already dead necromancer warrior person so I had thought his ashes might have been useful." She said, wiping her finger off on the ground. "But from what I can tell there's nothing special about the dust, just plain old corpse ash and you can get that anywhere." Mina grunted, it took a few attempts but she managed to sit up from her squatting position, moving her hands to help hold her belly. Looking at what remained of their carriage she let out a small groan. "I don't wanna walk." She mumbled, looking down at her big heavy belly.

"Well, we can't just leave any of you behind. Here, let me help you up. I'll take you back to the carriage.Eric wrapped an arm around her to support her back. The other hand supported as much weight of her belly as possible. They only manage to get a few steps before Eric shook his head. "This isn't going to work is it?"
"Maybe we should just roll her back in..." Teases Bella.
(Sorry I'll get a post in soon for this too. I've been a little busy with work and looking for another job and stuff xP)

Max quietly watched the battle, letting his powers and his blood to flow back into his body so he would at least be strong enough to help. He felt so embarrassed but from what he was watching this group could hold their own. Though what concerned him the most was the random swelling the women were doing.
They would use some magic and grow, it was strange. Here he had thought they were all knocked up by the man with the lance, but perhaps there was more to the story than he had perceived?
The day had been saved, but at what cost? Slowly standing to his feet he noticed the Lancer help the short and cute, but massive bellied, candle witch. Though he seemed to be struggling. Walking over he smiled at the three, Eric, Mina, and Bela, moving next to the lancer and gently grabbing a hold of the pregnant candle witch. "Here let me help a bit, we need to get the Warlock to the carriage as well too correct?" he spoke to Eric with concern and compassion in his voice as he turned his head to briefly look at the Warlock.
She was larger than the Candle Witch and was pretty much resting on her tummy. Glancing back to Eric, Max gave him a serious look. "This is way to strange to be a normal pregnancy. If it's not too much of a pain or secret, you mind filling me in on what's going on? Perhaps I can help." he spoke firmly supporing Mina's back as well ready to help get her and Roxanne into the carriage.
Mina smiled to Eric as he helped her up. After the few steps she leaned forward a bit, not used to her new center of gravity yet. "Yeah, I think I may be a bit more than we can handle." She said. When Max came over and put his hands into the mix Mina smiled and they were able to walk. "Thanks Max, after this I'm sure Roxanne could use some help." She looked over her shoulder to the large Warlock. "ok a lot of help." She chuckled.
When asked if their situation was a secret Mina shook her head. "You can't exactly keep these secret." She said, motioning to her belly. "We got pregnant by some cursed idols, we're not sure what with but what ever runts we have growing in us they like to eat up magic so when ever we cast spells they eat a bit of the extra and grow bigger." She looked to Roxanne again. "A lot bigger."

They were cursed by idols? Looking at her tummy he blinked a moment watching it squirm around underneath her dress. With Eric's help they got Mina to the carriage. "I see, and that's a problem for Magic Castors like yourself and the Warlock....did any of these idols have runes? I'm pretty good at reading them." he asked hoping that wasn't too much to ask.
"Well you take a break and relax. I'm sure you're really exhausted Mina. Oh and thanks for helping me earlier. I'm sorry for not helping much, or seeming like a burden. If you need a foot massage or anything let me know." he spoke kindly then turned to look at Eric.
Giving him a nod Max left the carriage and headed over to the large warlock. Taking note to avoid the Cerberus or keeping a distance. "Hey you going to be alright?" Max asked offering a hand. "Sorry to just burst into your group like this Miss, but it's not everyday you bump into pregnant women. The witch told me about the idols, did you happen to notice any runes upon them or anything? I study them, so maybe I might be able to help." something this strange he couldn't ignore.
Right now just a bit closer to the warlock he noticed how big she was. Her poor back was probably going to hate the large beach ball of flesh attached to her. Waiting for Erick he began to wonder if fate had led him to this strange group of people.
((Ok so, I had a cool idea for something that could benefit the party and make the adventure overall more interesting. This idea's initiation hinges on no one being in the carriage for a bit, so since I couldn't keep up with who was where...I am gonna assume Cassius is the only one in the carriage. It also seems like the carriage was damaged, yes? If there are any other characters inside, then they wouldn't notice anything until my action is finished.3nodding ))
Once the day had been won, it was very obvious that it wasn't without cost; not only were the already gravid women of the party now even more swollen with life, but the carriage - no doubt the only way any of the women could travel, such as their conditions were - had been badly damaged. Thats to say nothing of Cassius, who'd burned his mind badly with the mana from his botched spell. Never one to shy away from a challenge however, Cassius was determined to positively contribute to the cause of these women who had aided him with no promise of reward. He hobbled to his feet with help from the wall behind him, and groaned as his back straightened. Through the headache and blurred vision, he took a survey of his surroundings. The carriage was definitely in need of repairs before it was going anywhere, that much was clear. He closed his eyes and tried to focus. The burn was everywhere behind his eyes, but he dug deep enough and found the well of power he was searching for. He took a slow, deep breath. When he exhaled, a fine purple mist erupted from his mouth and began to envelop the carriage. Creaking and cracking. Bending and breaking. These, among other strange sounds, echoed out from within the large orb of swirling lavender. After what seemed like ages, the sounds dissipated along with the fog. There, where once there had been a rickety carriage, was a transport that looked like it belonged to a King; it was roundabouts of twenty-five feet long by fifteen feet wide, and now sported thick oaken walls banded by the finest of steel. It's wheels were sturdy and armored. The multiple windows bore ornate shutters. It's shape had even become more soft and round rather than hard and angular, almost befitting the majority of its passengers. Further, the horses that had been pulling the carriage were now much larger and glowing a faint white, as if they were now made completely out of starlight. Cassius emerged from the heavy double doors looking extremely worn and frail, holding his side and breathing hard. "Please, save your... *huff* ...applause. *huff* Wait 'til you... *huff* get in here! As the guy who... *kaff* ...taught me this little trick said of his own strange vehicle... *huff* It's bigger... *huff* ...on the inside!" With that, Cassius collapsed backwards into the carriage and blacked out.
((Yay! Now you see my idea! I thought this would make travel a lot cooler, and actually give everyone reason to protect the carriage in future situations. The horses are completely self-sufficient now too, so all they need is a command to pull the carriage along and they never need food, rest, or bathing. My imagining was that the look of the inside would feel very tavern-y, with a large common room that has a fireplace and a grand staircase leading to an overhanging balcony/catwalk. On the catwalk would be several doors that lead to different rooms and such, so everyone has their own space! Then downstairs would be things like the kitchen and storage area. Maybe even some kind of lab? Stables? I suppose the possibilities are endless! For our purposes though, it will be very bare to begin with. Until we start decorating or whatever, its just basic furniture inside. Do note that everything from the doorways to the beds to the bathing areas and even the windows are tailored to fit the needs of women in all stages of "delicate condition." Hope everyone likes!blaugh ))
