Not sure if it matters but should specify that I'm using the fire energy crystal in my crossbow.

guess we'll move away the max distance from the beast and let loose another bolt!

You fired off your crossbow again, and you managed to hit its shoulder. The large creature only roared and continued to make its way towards you. Again you notice its wound heal up again.

Rolled 2d6+1 : 5, 6 + 1, total 12

[Throndir]

As you began to fire your crossbow, one of the heads snapped at you. Luckily you ducked in time, and as you did so, released the trigger on your weapon. The bolt flew straight at its body, lodging itself into it.

You drew out your blades, but three of the heads managed to get through, biting your arms, and one at your leg. You managed to roll out of the way for the next 2 heads, but the wounds on your arms and legs hurt.

[Throndir]

Foolhardy or brave, with your rapier and short sword leading the way, you struck out with your rapier, its flames burning at the newly created wound. The creature roared in response as one of its heads came snapping at you. You side stepped out of the way as you brought your short sword to deflect yet another head. As the blade clashed on the head, sending it narrowly miss your shoulder, you used the momentum to swing the blade again back at its body. The short sword dug in deep, but the manuever left you defenseless as a third head managed to take a bite on your now exposed chest. You managed to shake the creature off, and though you couldn't yet feel the pain, you knew you were in danger. You drew back, as you side stepped out of the way for the fourth head, its snapping jaws clashing where you stood just moments before. Blood ran from under your mithril chain shirt, and your arms were already raw and bloodied from the bites they received.

You began to pull out your weapons, you had to make another strike. But it was at that moment that the last head came from behind, clamping down on your chest.

You felt your consciousness fade, as things started to slowly become dark. You swear there was a flash of light, but even that you could hardly register.

"You had a close fight." A voice had said as you blearily opened your eyes. You found yourself lying in some sort of bed, and the first thing you noticed was a lady dressed in blue. She had what looked to be a variety of bandages in her hands, though you noticed that they had a good amount of blood on it.

"You're cleared from the worse of it" She explained as she noticed your gaze. "But if you want to get back into the arena, that would have to wait for tomorrow."

One refreshed used up! You can try again for the next day, or wait until another player loses on this tier and I'll see if you guys can duo this tier.

[Dan-e]

Markus finally sat up on the table and shook his head slightly as he tried to rid himself of the shrill shrieks left ringing in his ears from the beast that had just eaten him. "Thank you for your expert care." he spoke to the healer. "However I regret that you may not have seen the last of me yet." Markus stood up and started toward the door. "I just don't like the idea of a beast thinking he's got the best of me."

Markus is ready to repeat this tier of the ladder challenge.  :)

[Throndir]

"Well... Don't get yourself killed out there." The nurse sad as she watched you leave.













After that long rest, you made your way back towards the arena, and after getting yourself situated and the officials pinning the teleportation badge on you, you prepped for the upcoming fight. An hour later the same large creature that had bested you the day before made its appearance.

Roll perform and initiative!

[Dan-e]

"Ahh there you are gorgeous! You're just as beautiful now as the first time I saw you!" Markus yelled with a smile

The hydra roared back in response as if to greet you.

Changing stance to "Stance of Piercing Ray"

Drawing crossbow and using "Solar Sting" to shoot a field of caltrops immediately in front of the hydra

Rolled 1d20+11 : 14 + 11, total 25

[Throndir]

The caltrops were placed, but the hydra simply ignored them as it slowly stepped across the glowing field. It immediately regretted its decision however as the caltrops went deep into the hydra's feet. It attempted to move out of the way from the rest, but it only stepped on more. It roared in pain, and angrily, it locked its five sets of eyes on you and started to make it's way towards you slowly.
