Why search the area myself when I can send a white bird to do the job instead!

"Gourd, I want you to look around and inform me if you find something."

Edit: I claim this page break in thy name of myself.

That should be both the info actions then! Take these words friends, arm yourselves with knowledge!

Kairy hands Wes her crossbow and hands it to Wes.
"Don't drop it, i'm taking a look."
Kairy then walks a short distance to the crack in the wall while Razuna orders Gourd to look around. In a burst of speed Gourd shoots down the right fork.
Looking through the crack that's about half the length of Kairy's body and two feet shorter than her, Kairy attempts to see through it!
5!
The top of the crater opens out to the sky, but there is a larger overhang that shades the crater.
Anathema's tentacles seem to move on their own accord.
Anathema's drool is acidic.
Anathema doesn't smell... yet...
The "Spiders" have four thin, sharp, dark legs with some type of armor plating on the fronts. The legs attach to a small body with a medium sized, reptile-like head. It looks like the head can extend out from the body, but you can't tell how much. You decide to name them "Crawlers".
There are many more cracks around the same size as the one you look out of, seemingly in a pattern.

Gourd returns to Razuna's shoulder and whispers information into his ear, which Razuna relays to the party.
Anathema radiates Miasmal and Demoni energies, which will weaken anybody with a large enough deficiency to said elements.
The "Crawlers" are mindless drones, they give of no energy of any kind.
The rocky overhang is sturdy. It will take considerable force to bring down.
Anathema has rooted itself into the ground.

"Alright, it seems that it will be very difficult to destroy the Crawlers with the rocks in the roof... Any other ideas?"

Difficult does not mean impossible.
I know, but I would prefer to consider all of our option and pick the safest one. After all, I don't want this to be a short battle... :P
I actually noticed that I was left out too. I was pretty sure Never did it on purpose too.

"Yeah, I think I could cause a cave in with a Buster Ball Blast, Wes. It should be easy actually. Perhaps Shivad could help me if we're still iffy on me being able to cause a cave in. I could go with Wes if we split up. If there aren't enough rocks in the ceiling, I could always try blasting some higher rocks in the walls."

I sigh and look at the ceiling for a moment before saying: "Oh well... Look, there's a large rock overhang at the top of the crater. If we can manage to get that to break and fall down, it will probably kill most of the Crawlers. Anyone who is ready to do that, try not to look at Anathema while you're there. Just seeing it might still creep us out.

As a plan B, let's keep the option open to blast the walls of the crater and cause it to cave in. Just take care not to get caught in the falling debris ourselves.

Everyone who isn't going to work on destroying the cave, get ready to run out of here. Once we attack, there will be no time to turn back. Anything we still have to talk about? Say it now."
That was it. After we started the cave-in, the final battle would began. If I managed to get out of that battle victorious, I would have finally proven myself worthy of living in the human world. I was not going to lose...

I told to the group:

"Guys... I just want to say that whatever we win or lose today, it was an honor to fight on your side."

(This phrase may be too cliche, but I always wanted to say that!)

"Now, which one of us should attempt to break the overhang?"

If you guys have your plan finalize, I'll need bolded actions!
I'm not about to try and assume. That will lead to Kairy using welken bolster on Bazyli and have him run in like a maniac.
Unless, of course, that's your plan.

So yeah, if you guys are done discussing post bolded actions. If not, keep at it.
I don't think we've quiiite decided.

"I volunteer to be in the group that breaks down the ceiling. Of course, I'd like Wes to come with me but I'm not sure how helpful he'd be?"

I'll use Buster Ball Blast on the rocky overhang when it's time to do so!
"Actually, I was planning on going with you anyway, Bazyli. When we cause a cave-in, we may all need to get out of here, and quickly, as Kairy's suggested. You still seem a bit tired, so the second the walls or that overhang collapses, I can carry you out on my shoulders. You'll be using Buster Ball Blast, right? I think Kairy should also assist by shooting at the same weak point you do, possibly using her Armor Melter or somesuch? Shivad may also be able to assist with her icy magic, and Razuna could use Aura Burst, assuming it has enough range... So Zuko, Fureira, Renae, unless you have some idea of how you could help, you should all do as Kairy suggested and back away a bit, be ready to run and all that. Are we ready to do this, then?"

Fureira says
"We're going to cause a cave in? I can melt that rock into lava, but I need a clear shot, and these cracks aren't big enough. Just throwing it out there."
"I say that we should go with Wes' plan. Sounds like our best shot so far..."

I proceed to back away and prepare to run when the cave-in is provoked.
"Hmm, I'm not sure if you can do much with this current plan, Fureira? Perhaps you should standby for plan B in case our current plan fails?"

"I think Wes has said it well so far, let's go with that. But Fureira, in case we fail in our strategy, you go ahead and melt parts of the crater walls into lava. That will at least cause and smaller cave-in, and many of the Crawlers would burn to death.

Let's make this a battle worth remembering! And... try not to die."

I remove the Angelus bolt from my crossbow and replace it with an Onyx bolt. Then, I go ahead together with Wes, Bazyli and everyone who wants to join, and prepare to fire my Armour Melter at the overhanging rock at the moment the others aim for it as well.
Oh, crap! I totally forgot about this, sorry!

I'm not sure if Aura Burst is going to work so:
I'll just prepare to run, and only use aura burst if is
extremely necessary.

Yeah so, you guys can't reach the overhang with your skills where you are right now.
You'll have to either enter the crater or widen the cracks that have allowed you to see into it. If you're going to enter the crater, blow up the overhang, then leave, you'll need to pick either the left path down or the right path down.

So that still needs to be decided.

Seiromem, would it be at all possible to reach the crater from above/the outside instead of staying inside? Entering the crater itself seems like a really bad idea.
Seiromem

Well, you can go outside and search for yourself! Of make create a path up there or something. Whatever you like as long as it's plausible and you get good rolls!
Well, I already posted my action, so you guys are free to do as you want. :)
