The wizard studies the tiger for a moment, taking note of the horrific appearance. He then shouts to his comrades "It can shrug off a lot of lightning, acid, and direct magics."
The invisible wizard then intones a few words of arcane origin and pulls a stick from his belt.
Snarling at the failure of her lightning when sudden tendrils entangle the tiger, Morika decides on another tactic. A breathed word and look toward the hidden sun, and the shifter woman erupts in flame. Running up towards the tiger, taking care to give the invisible wizard a wide berth (as she heard some spellcasting coming from in the direction she last saw him) Morika aims to both distract it from her companions and possibly give it the worst hotfoot in its life... [Took southern route, as there actually is a rock on the right hand side of Thanor]
Ipshivi clucked a curse in the halfling tongue, an imprecation against dark spirits- regular tigers that size were bad enough, without the unnatural features. Almost reflexively, she shifted back into her invisible state, taking another quick scan of the area while she watched the fighters go after the beast. Her attuned senses did not detect anything else, besides the ragged breathing of their guides ahead, and that of the gnome and halforc female behind them.
The tiger-beast looks around maliciously as it chooses its next victim. Looking quickly between the dwarf and half-elf in front of it, settles upon the half-elf and rears up on its back legs and swipes both claws with blinding speed -- the first slicing like a razor across her right thigh, cutting almost to the bone, the other catching her on the upstroke along the ribcage. Sanne's lithe form reacting to the assault is caught unaware as the teeth of the sickening creature sink into her forearm. She tries to wrench her arm free, but finds herself caught fast with the creature. A sickening ichor drips onto her body from hide of the beast. [Sanne grappled, no counterstrike due to no unsuccessful melee attack]
Thanor grunts in anger that he is once again being ignored, and his axe rises into the air with a fresh sheen of ichor dripping from its blade. The dwarven steel manages to bite into the hideous haunch of the tiger on the upswing, its reflexes slowed by the entangling magicks cast upon it by the unseen halfling, but the tiger reacts to the pain and deftly avoids the downswing.
Aeranduil lets out a brief cry of surprise as the power of Yoggrith's dark lord flows into him like the icy water of a mountain stream. The cry immediately turns into a sigh of relief, though, as the elf's wounds begins to close, the blood ceases to flow, and the pain begins to fade. With a nod of thanks to half-orc, the archer steps forward and again knocks arrow, ready for some payback on the strange, otherworldly tiger. His aim is true and all three impale themselves on the creatures hide, causing more green ichor to flow.
As Sanne yelps from the bite in the arm, Yoggrith nods once to Aeranduil and then slides away from the elf towards the khoravar, carefully giving the blazing druid a wide berth. "It seems our beastly friend cannot help but cause us pain. Pain is good... it cleanses the soul." He takes advantage of the tigers occupation with the half-elf in its jaws and reaches out and heals Sanne of her own wounds.
The influx of strangely dark-touched positive energy restores the vitality to the savaged half-elf, and she struggles to no avail in the grasp of the tigers jaws. The stench of the creature overpowers her, and she cannot get her arm free to put her rapier to use.

Thanor, AC 27, HP 110/110, F+9, R+4, W+7
Thanor grunts in anger that he is once again being ignored, and his rises into the air with a fresh sheen of ichor dripping from its blade. The dwarven steel falls twice on the hideously twisted form of the tiger, but neither strike is able to cut the beast's corrupted hide.
[sblock=ooc] Attacks (1d20+10)=15, (1d20+5)=13. The morale penalty is included, but not flanking. As a knight, he can't take advantage of the tiger's distraction.
The tiger has his dodge and shield block bonus.[/sblock]

Round 3 - End of combat
Initiative:
21 - Voadam - Use Wand of Grease on Sanne
17 – Morika - Move to (8,15), charge attack MISS, Body of Sun damage on Tiger/Sanne for 8 damage
15 – Ipshivi - Eldritch Blast at tiger HIT - did not overcome SR
14 – Tiger - Release grapple, attack Sanne 2 claws HIT for 29 damage, 5' step to (7/8,13)
13 - Thanor - Attack tiger twice -- 2 HITS for 18 damage
11 – Aeranduil - Fires 3 arrows -- ALL HIT for 29 damage
"Hold on Sanne! I have magic to help you slip out of its grasp." Voadam points his wand at Sanne and invokes its magic, coating her in a magical substance that makes it easier to glide out of the tentacles' grip.
Morika slides to the side and dashes forward, hoping to crash into the creature's disturbing hide and give the others enough distraction to-.
Her musings are cut short as over-enthusiasim causes her to slip on a stone. Spitting out loam from yet another tumble on the forest floor, Morika's fire licks upward toward the nightmare-beast.
This is getting ridiculous! A snarl of frustration escapes the shifters lips. She rears her head back up and realizes that the radiate fire emanating from her body singed a portion of the tiger, but also the grappled half-elf (8 fire damage to both Tiger and Sanne)
Ipshivi had heard Voadam's warning about the tiger's nature (or rather its' un-nature), and she didn't think she would be as lucky a second time. On the other hand, every nick and scratch might help bring the beast down, and its disturbing form was upsetting enough that she wanted to destroy it. She called forth another burst of arcane energy, trying to hit the tiger rather than Sanne -- the bolt strikes the creature without error, but the energy is absorbed harmlessly into its sickening hide. [SR Check failed]
The tiger looks around at the advancing humans and spits the half-elf out of its mouth. It then shrieks an alien, yet bloodcurdling scream and launches once again into the half-elf with its massive claws, re-opening freshly closed wounds and doubling Sanne over in pain. Wary of the blazing shifter, the tiger cautiously backsteps away.
Steadfast and stubborn as only a dwarf can be, Thanor brings his axe down on the creature twice more. I'll not be given' up, ye stupid cat. Die already and save us both the effert.
His axe flowing like water through the air, cuts deeply into the tigers hide on each stroke.
Aeranduil frowns at the sight of his companion being savaged by the tiger, knowing exactly how she must feel with the creature's claws sinking into her. The elf continues firing arrows as fast as he can, each arrow striking and staggering the beast. It rears up on its haunches, tries to pull the last two arrows out of its hide, then crashes down to the ground in a heap.
Ichor and pus continue to ooze out of the creature, causing the leaves and plants below its putrid body to smoke slightly. The creatures lungs pulse one final time before the body rapidly begins to decay.
Active Spells & Conditions:
Aeranduil -- (33/64)

Morika -- Call Lightning (69 rounds); Body of the Sun (7 rounds)

Aeranduil Warraven - Round 3 Actions
Aeranduil frowns at the sight of his companion being savaged by the tiger, knowing exactly how she must feel with the creature's claws sinking into her. The elf continues firing arrows as fast as he can, hoping to slay the menace before it can cause any further damage.
5' step to (14,14).
Attack using point blank shot + rapid shot: +14/+9/+14 (1d8+7) with morale penalty.
Adjust for Range from Woodland Archer feat: If you miss a foe with a projectile weapon, all subsequent attacks in same round gain a +4 attack bonus to hit the same foe.

OOC: Morika will move to the left and then upwards, charging the tiger... *Player beats head against the table.* Morika's charge attack (-1 taken into effect). (1d20+12=13). Another freaking one! But possibly, on the plus side: Body of the sun damage. (4d4=14)

OOC: 5-foot step forward, invoke another point-blank eldritch blast, +12 to hit, 3d6+1 damage (not sure how much of a penalty for targeting a creature in a grapple- but I think it loses its DEX bonus, and thus may be subject to an extra 1d6 sneak attack- if applicable)
