How far away is the nearest monster from Posey?
How high is the lighthouse, how high is the monster in the air above the lighthouse, and is the monster in the air above the ledge of the cliff?
I need to ask because of tactics and fall damage.

She will make fine cover and a comfortable gun rest at least. Cavaliere fires two shots at the creature.

>Trip
It's in the sky
Posey lets lose an arrow. It hits the creature in the chest, and it opens its mouth to make an unvoiced howl. Or at least it seems to. For once, the sparks in the mouth illuminate the interior, to show a dark grey throat with no visible upper palate.
It glides quickly, and closer, until it is within 30 feet of Posey's position, and it turns its head towards her, mouth alight with sparks.
Touch Attack
[1d20+4 = (17+4) = 21]
Posey is of course flatfooted for purposes of AC
A beam of light springs from its mouth, and briefly in a small cone beneath it, the ground lights up as if it were day, with the hues of brown, yellow, and green in the grass visible in near every blade.
It comes towards Posey as a beam of lightning.
Electric damage

That's a hit. Posey's fluffy white fur stands on end, and she winks and shudders as the electricity tickles her dead nerves.
"Lightning magic...? This is going to be fun! UwU" she says, with a giggle
>Posey is of course flatfooted for purposes of AC
It is to be expected. Posey's main job is to draw fire right now.
>what
The ki technique I've been using for a while now. If it's not flat footed, it doesn't matter.
I'm going to have to drive home from work soon, which means I will be gone for ~30 mins. If my turn passes, Possy will throw her bolas to trip the monster, throwing with a +5 bonus and tripping with a +3 bonus

Kira squints at the creature, thinking it might just be within the optimal range of her bow. She pulls a couple arrows, takes in a deep breath, draws her bow, and as she lets it out she lets both arrows fly in quick successive draws.

Is Silver not getting involved?
If not, Cavaliere will let loose two more shots. Undead or not, Posey probably does not appreciate the noise of gunfire from right over her head. After firing, he taps her on the withers, points to her, and points behind himself. This is in case she can't hear, "Miss, it would be better for you to get behind cover."

I just got home from work.
>How the hell do you trip something in flight?
Throwing a bolas at a flying creature would be the most common way. That's why I brought one, to kill Luminous in case he tried to fly away.
I won't contest your ruling, but I would like to clarify this in the future, since 1/3 humanoid enemies can fly, and almost all of my spells are touch range.

>"Miss, it would be better for you to get behind cover."
"I am the cover. Do your thing, Garv." Posey says, reassuringly
If the electricity ray to the chest bothered her, she doesn't show it.
>>191856
I was pretty sure I can, but for the sake of convenience I'll just shoot my bow...

Let's just say that between the fact that this creature is several times the size of a hippogriff or griffin, and it has clearly demonstrated that it can fly stably even with at least one set of wings disabled, Posey does not believe that such a venture is likely to succeed against this particular kind of enemy, at least with only a single successful attack.

Oh, size bonus. I guess tripping is a bad idea then.
Posey's turn is over after she fires her bow.

Posey's arrow hits the creature's thing belly at an angle, and does not beak through the hide, but partly sticks in, turns downward, and falls out with gravity.
The creature turns in air, banking and rotating in a relatively small circle. When it comes back around, it aims its mouth-beak at Posey again, and lets loose a small bolt of lightning.

"That one actually hurt a little..!" Posey says, biting her lower lip as she shudders like a salted frog on a dissection table
Gives the monster a cocky smile, looking right at the Traveller through its eyes, taunting it.

Kira draws another pair of arrows. She can't really see how effective she's being right now, but she repeats what she did previously hoping that it has some positive effect on the first.

Probably not a good idea with the flying monster around. Braving the hail of bullets going out the front door is probably a better idea right now.

In the reflection in its eyes, Posey sees... Darkness. But there are lights in the darkness, like so many lit windows in distant houses, shining through in a snow storm
>>191867
As the creature turns in air, Kira lands one shot into its belly, and then another into the central "shoulder" of the second set of wings.
At first, it seems nothing has happened. Nothing seems to have affected it. But all at once, a black tear forms down the center of the creature, and it disintegrates like an ashen pinata, tearing into two, and each side decaying into ash that soon enough scatters in the seaborn wind before it reaches the ground.
It is done

No one can hear it as she isn't currently on the radio. But Kira looks first in astonishment at where the creature once flew and speaks a quiet, "I did it..." before looking down at her bow and repeating it just a bit more loudly, "Heh, I did it!"
Silver notices that the creature is no longer there, and lets out a sigh of relief. "Okay, let us get these ponies out of here before another shows up."

Cavaliere finally yanks Posey by the shoulders to pull her inside.
He calls out behind them, "Are you ready to abseil? We need to leave now before this lighthouse is stormed by the soldiers or obliterated by their ship's guns."

Posey takes a moment to fix her frazzled mane, still twitching a bit from the electricity
"Ready!" she replies

Kira turns towards the source of the sound, before quickly getting on the radio again. "Guys, they just took out the other monster. You need to move, NOW!"
Silver speaks up. "No more lollygagging. I will carry them out if I need to but we need to move. We will figure out where they are after."

Cavaliere gets the rope ready and instructs the others to hold onto the rope. He taps Day Chaser on the shoulder.
"You don't mind if we lower you first, do you?" he asks.
To his companions he remarks, "If they still have door covered, simply walking out may be a bad idea."

Assuming there's enough rope to make a harness for Day Chaser, Silver gets to work getting him harnessed around his hindlegs and his chest.

Posey uses her horn to help with whatever menial tasks (tying knots, etc) are necessary to get the party moving.
"Hey, watch it!"
With more complaining, Day Chaser is on his way down the side of the lighthouse, on the side opposite the soldiers.
Presumably, he is let down first

Posey guides the airponies to the rest of the group, letting the ponies from the airship explain the situation.

It is apparent, one, that it would take a while to get everypony down from the lighthouse, longer than it would take the soldiers to get to the lighthouse without something in their way, and two, trying to dart back behind the hill risks exposure to line of sight

"We do not have time to dally!"
Posey takes a standard action to heal a couple points with her Charnel touch, and then follows after Cavalier, scaling down the tower with her vampony hooves, less than concerned with how uncanny she looks...
[1d20+9 = (9+9) = 18]
If she falls, she falls
If any soldiers approach the tower, she'll just have to engage them herself.

Kira calls out over the radio, "Hey, if someone could grab the arrows I shot before you leave, it would be greatly appreciated. I shot four, they should be on the ground below where the creature disappeared."
Silver makes a note of Kira's request, and ushers the rest of the ponies down the stairs to exit from the front. "If we are to be seen regardless of what we do, then it is better to be fast."

And suddently,
Chang chang chang chang
The sound of automatic gun fire, thuds, and then the shattering of glass. The window that Posey was just hanging out of shatters. Then the great light itself - previously unharmed, shatters and fades. Bullets pepper the side of the structure.
At the base of the lighthouse, two soldiers approach the door, though this is not exactly the side the ponies are being lowered onto.
