Khadmeade holds out his hammer and it begins to glisten with a greenish tint before a spatter of sizzling liquid is expelled from it directly toward the gator. "Taste the power of the earth upon ye, cursed beast!" the dwarf cries as he directs the glob of acid towards its mark.
OOC
Use Earth domain ability
To hit: 4
(quite unlikely to hit, but 1d6+1 acid damage if it does for some strange reason)
If everyone else is taking a move action to exit the room before his initiative comes up, Khadmeade will do the same after firing his acid dart, otherwise, he will stay up front and tank to defend any who remain in the room.
Edit: As you were, folks. The darkness effect ain't going to work like that. More after WD has had a re-think.

OOC: Just to clarify, the alligator is in a pit and can only just climb high enough to attack somebody stood in an adjacent square. Lamm isn't close enough to the pit for his pet toattack him, so leaving the two of them alone isn't going to do much. I'll let this rounds actions stand for the moment, on the basis that Tristan and Bael are misreading the situation.
IC:
A pair of acid darts shoot towards the enraged alligator, both splashing harmlessly into the water beside it. Tristan and Bael quickly step back out of the door, leaving Khadmeade and Maya alone to face Lamm.
The wizened, jaundiced old criminal ducks behind the doorframe as you see him re-loading his hand crossbow. He chuckles maliciously.
"I don't know who you people are, but your friends don't seem to think much of you," he says. "And who can blame them?"
OOC
Khadmeade acid dart attack = 5, miss.
Tristan acid dart attack 2+3=5, also a miss.
Initiative order:
Lamm
Bael
Tristan (shifted due to delay)
Khadmeade
Maya
Alligator.
Maya and the aligator have yet to act this round.

"Look at you," Maya declares haughtily. "Look at what your life of evil has brought you to. Dying alone and afraid, at the hands of those seeking just vengeance, with only a beaten alligator to protect you, and no one to mourn you. Death seems too good for you...but it is a greater blessing to the world than for you, so it is cheerfully granted."
She extends a taloned hand. Green witchfire crackles between her fingers, then lances out at Lamm!
"Damn it!" Tristan heads back into the room, going rightward to the other end of the pool, and will attack Lamm with acid if he has a shot. If not he will ready an action to cast daze when Lamm reappears.
ooc
acid: +3 touch, 30', 1d6+1
daze: If Lamm has 4 HD or less, Will DC 15 or lose actions for 1 round
Maya's bolt of eldritch energy streaks towards the doorframe and seems to dart sideways to strike Lamm's exposed shoulder.
"Damn you, horser bitch!" he says with snarl. "I'm not going to be dying tonight." He ducks out and fires a shot at Maya with his hand crossbow. The small quarrel embeds itself in her thigh. The alligator thrashes and scrabbles on the side of its pit, trying to reach Khadmeade but it is unable to get a grip with its claws. Its ferocious jaws close an inch or so from the dwarf's foot.
Just then, Bael and Tristan burst back through the door. The tiefling has his bow ready, but Tristan hustles past and moves towards Lamm. The young wizard sizes up his aim and takes up a ready stance, a spell upon his lips.
OOC
End of round 1:
Maya's magic missile on Lamm - 4 points
Alligator fails to reach Khadmeade.
Round 2
Lamm, hand crossbow hit on Maya for 3 points
Bael, swap weapon and move into room
Tristan, move towards Lamm. Unable to get line of sight for an acid dart, so readied daze.
Khadmeade - ?
Maya - ?
Alligator - ?

OOC: Is Airwalkrr back in action, does anyone know? Otherwise I'll NPC Khadmeade for the moment. Waiting actions from the rest of you.

"Ah!" Maya yelps. She leans over to grab the shaft in her leg, but after a moment forces herself to release it. "Fool. You are not fighting just me. You are fighting all the spirits of those you've wronged. They will give me strength."
Another lance of magic crackles from Maya's fingertips and seeks Lamm out!
(Magic Missile part deux!)

OOC: Psst, Shay, you cast shield before entering and it should still be active (a minute of game time hasn't passed yet). Don't forget also that in PF whatever 0th level spells you have prepared can be cast as at-will powers. I think that works for sorcerers as well.

(OOC - Gah, how embarrassing. I completely missed this reply until now. *buries face in hands* I'm so sorry, everyone. I may need to start thinking about reducing the number of games I'm in if I keep dropping posts like this.
I'll edit my post to cast another Magic Missile instead of shield. Thanks for the catch, Doc!)
OOC: Not to worry, Shay. This game is a bit stalled anyway, I'm not sure it's due to your actions. I was thinking that if anyone wanted to continue with the Crimson Throne AP we could conflate with the Beta group (where we are one character down, but otherwise posting prolificly). This'll require a bit of hand waving as regards actions, but there's a convenient point coming soon to mix the two groups. Let me know.
IC:
Lamm ducks out from behind his doorframe to fire his hand crossbow at Maya again. As he does so, Tristan is ready for him, but the old man seems to shrug off the spell motes without even trying. His bolt bounces harmlessly off Maya's magical shield, a flash of green energy briefly lighting where it strikes. Bael answers with a bowshot, narrowly missing the old man as he ducks behind cover again.
With a roar of rage, Khadmeade brings his warhammer down on the head of the alligator. It is a mighty blow, with the full weight of the dwarf behind it, and perhaps the blessings of Torag too. The creature's head is smashed to a pulp, and it thrashes and writhes in the pool of its own blood and brain matter, too stupid to know that it is dead.
Maya unleashes another bolt of eldritch energy that darts around the corner and strikes Lamm.
"You people have picked the wrong man for a fight," he snarls, uncowed and unrepentent.
OOC
-Tristan casts a readied daze spell, no effect.
-Lamm hand crossbow attack on Maya, miss.
-Bael bow attack on Lamm, 6+3=9, miss
-Khadmeade warhammer attack on Gobbleguts. 20+2 = 22, hit. Crit. Confirm 20+2 = 22, hit (!). Damage 3d8+6=20.
-Maya magic missile on Lamm, 2 damage.
-Gobbleguts - dying.
Oddly, the Beta group dispatched Gobbleguts the alligator with a single critical too. Poor beast!
