[sblock=OOC]Eithal slides the scourge to G15. This invalidates gnashing jaws, unless this guy's teeth have reach 2.[/sblock]

[sblock=ooc]
It doesn't invalidate it, it's reach increases to 2 when bloodied, but it loses the concealment aura. It's good for Grigo though as it does not have threatening reach so he should be ok [/sblock]

Yimayngurr throws his spear in a high arc, intending to pin the scourge to the floor, but his aim is off and the spear glances off the flagstones returning to the ranger's hand.

[sblock=OOC]Interesting cross between a Mourning Haunt and Fell Taint Thought Scourge... I like it! I've got to put something like that together for my adventures.

BTW: Did I mention... I HATE INSUBSTANTIAL ENEMIES!!!! . Especially Fell Taints (See Can Dextyr Keep All These Strikers Alive for the reason).[/sblock]

One-Who-Waits once again retreats from the abomination. Knotty Virtue calls out again to Yimayngurr, whose spear strikes true this time.
[sblock=actions]Move: OWW to D21, Knotty Virtue to E15.

Standard: claws of the eagle on Yimayngurr again. Yimayngurr basic with CA (1d20+9=21, 1d10+5=9) is a hit. Scourge grants CA until EONT.

Minor: activate watchful spirit totem power. (Scourge takes 2 damage when it damages any ally adjacent to Knotty Virtue until EONT.)

Interrupt to stop Grigo from falling down if it comes to that.

Sorry, no powers that grant saves.[/sblock]

[sblock=Spirit Effects (IMPORTANT TO DM AND PCS)] A reminder of the effects that the spirit (Knotty Virtue) has on combat. The first three are important to players.

• Any ally of One-Who-Waits who starts their turn adjacent to Knotty Virtue can shift 1 square as a free action, as the first action during their turn.
• Any ally of One-Who-Waits who is adjacent to Knotty Virtue gains a +4 bonus to their damage rolls against bloodied enemies.
• Knotty Virtue occupies 1 square. Allies can move through its space but enemies cannot.
• Any enemy that leaves a square adjacent to Knotty Virtue without shifting is subject to an opportunity attack (the Spirit's Fangs power).
• Knotty Virtue has the same defense values as One-Who-Waits and can be targeted by attacks.
• If a single attack deals 11 or more damage to Knotty Virtue, the spirit disappears and One-Who-Waits takes 6 damage. Otherwise Knotty Virtue is unaffected by attacks.
• When One-Who-Waits takes a move action, he can move Knotty Virtue up to 6 squares as well.
• Knotty Virtue is unaffected by terrain and environmental phenomena.

Psais takes a step back away from the scourge and levels his staff at the monstrousity once more. A ring of golden light forms around the creature, but it's tentacles shatter the light as if it were made of glass.

Eithal attempts to pull the scourge away from Girgo, but can't manage to hook her axe around the thing's tentacles. Seeing this as futile, she carefully approaches from behind and taps the thing on the... er... shoulder (?) to get its attention, "Skews me. Ovah heyah!"[sblock=Actions]Standard: Thorn Strike
Target: Who else?
Attack: 1d20+8+1(FOTRP bonus)+2(CA) = 16 Miss.
Move: Shift to G16
Free: Mark the scourge, smile big, and get ready to get hit . Note that she is next to Knotty Virtue.[/sblock]

Reeling from the shock of the scourge's attack, Grigo tries to move but finds his legs will not obey him. He calls his floating disk to him, takes the healing potion from it and swigs it down. As his head clears a bit, he creates an illusion of a second scourge to attack the first one. The illusion is only in the mind of the scourge; the heroes can't see it, but the scourge winces in pain, then reacts angrily, swiping at the air with its tentacles.

[sblock="Actions"]Start of turn: take 5 damage (now 5)
Move: call tenser's floating disk to me.
Free: grab healing potion from disk

Yimayngurr throws his spear in a high arc, intending to pin the scourge to the floor, but his aim is off and the spear glances off the flagstones returning to the ranger's hand.

The illusion is only in the mind of the scourge; the heroes can't see it, but the scourge winces in pain, then reacts angrily, swiping at the air with its tentacles.

The scourge shrieks an ear-splitting noise, the language is foreign to you, but the message seems clear, it's in pain. The creature flies away at full speed towards the portal, but Eithal manages to slam his greataxe into the departing enemy. The spirit companion and Psais are less effective as the creature moves to the portal and with a flare of light and an explosion of force it disappears through the structure. The force sends you onto your backs. The portal begins to crack as the arcane energies holding it together are no longer functioning and the cracks spread, widening and the whole structure collapses in a heap, dirt and dust flying everywhere.

You all hold your breath for a moment, but nothing further appears. The "ceiling" begins to ... melt might be the best way to describe it. Pieces of the flesh-y ...thing... begin to fall onto you, but they quickly dissolve into vapour.

It all is over within a few seconds, and suddenly a calm quiet falls over the area.

Grigo should be at 15 hp, not 10, which may be important if ongoing damage continues after combat.
