Initiative Roster:
Asa * Dr. Lazarus * O-Yama * Headstrong * Markos * Dirge * Worm-Things * Ishani * Sean * Regina * Jayant * Joseph * Karen * Eleanor * Ronald * Obsidian * Arnold * Konstantin
Khalvin and Kelreth were both on today but did not reply, and Writer has not been on in more than 24 hrs, so I'll ghost their characters' actions in the interest of moving things along.
Lacking the sheer supernatural potency of Nightmare and the fighting skill of many of the others present, Obsidian decides it is probably best if she tries to withdraw from this place, so others need not keep trying to protect her... but fails.
Ronald attempts to pick some of the worms of O-Yama, but is unsuccessful.
Joseph attempts to withdraw into a normal daysleep state as well, expending Willpower to do so, and is successful. He fades from the dreamscape.
New turn, Asa is up.

Asa can clearly see the worms are far easier dealt with by Discipline than by hand... unfortunately, his Disciplines require words.
Or do they?
"LEAVE!" he yelled at one of the untouched ones, emphatically pointing away from Avalon.
Worth A Try - 4 suxx
There were too many worms to continue this fight. Despite the immense feeling of loyalty to those of the First Estate around him, the desire to continue his unlife was more powerful. Rather than aiming another Nightmarish attack at the worm beasts, Lazarus concentrates and tries to wake up...
Waking Up
In a sudden wisp of black tendrils of smoke, Dr. Lazarus vanishes from the dreamscape.

O-Yama stands at the doorway, wincing as the worms dig into his flesh, burrowing. He turns to look at Prince Clarke, Konstantin, Jayant, Reeve Culler, and any other warriors still there. He charges forward, slashing brutally at the closest worm-creature, doing obviously brutal damage to the one Konstantin is fighting.

Arnold finished off the one Konstantin and Ishani were fighting. O-Yama manages to do enough damage to destroy one of the other wounded ones, though.
The one targeted by Prince Asa's Dominate jerks for a moment, but it appears unaffected. Asa can tell the mental force of his Discipline made contact with the thing, but as with humans, apparently these creatures can be affected by Dominate only with some degree of shared language.

Headstrong looks at the squirming Eleanor, rolling and trashing about as the dozens of worms infested her. She'd either wake up quickly or would find herself in dire straights indeed. Watching what would happen with some disguised interest Headstrong ignored the worms furiously burrowing beneath her own stone skin. Neonates were so foolish.
I- Stop! Must- Ah!
Eleanor spends a WP to heal 2 bashing, 3 lethal 2 bashing remaining.
You have failed me for the last time!

Obsidian focuses on the illogic of the dream, recognizing it for what it is and slowly fades into shadow.
"Will I be there when you wake?" asks Janus' voice.
"You are always with me," whispers Obsidian.

As he stood by the door, waiting as a rear guard just in case they needed to fall back, Jayant locked eyes with O-Yama, and smiles as the Nosferatu continues his attack.
Brother in arms, Jayant muses as he whips forward also to attack with the kukri of his ancestors.
