So, from my end-

Vayla would certainly take a leadership role of the group to unify them and keep them on target, given that one is a work-obsessed outcast, one is a mute, and

one is Yomishka.

Her methods of prep are difficult to say, since historically, any Valev usually prepares or improvise in the most unpredictably wild ways available to them in any given scenario, as I'm sure Perpetual can testify. I apologize for tormenting you.</s

To my knowledge, she has no reliable way around the barrier due to it's massive wall of resistances, and the only thing she has that can hurt it at all, the Flames of the Consortium, would probably get dispelled moments after Vayla creates them, as SOLSTICE has enough stamina, or 'magic', to basically do it forever. On the plus side, the chances of her adapting to the esoteric, extra-dimensional misnomer fire is very low.

On the other hand, she does have a fair share of defensive methods to take a few hits. She'd likely attempt to test them during prep time, but I'll get more into this later. Naturally, the main strategy would be to draw aggression from SOLSTICE to let her more offensive-potent partners actually do the damage to her, using some death prevention spells, illusions, and temporal trickery (not time stop, but more focused spells on specific attacks that hopefully won't be adapted to since they won't hit her) to extend the opening as long as possible.

Naturally, to actually hold aggro against SOLSTICE, I imagine one will need to, well, piss her off. I believe it was noted in SOL vs EQ that one of EQ's advantages was that SOL was angry and beyond reason. The only question is, how well can the group piss her off?

''Maybe she could seduce the emotionally torn SOL and add insult to injury. That would be pretty in-character.''
