[sblock=oc]In the interest of expediting this, i'm summarizing Alexis's actions:

Ask Dav to help her kill the allip.

She's going to continue casting cure spells(not 0th-lvl) until Llyr is dead. IF the she's being threatened, she'll cast defensively. If it's the allip threatening, she'll attack it with the spell. Else, she'll use it cure llyr.

Should the allip die: cure llyr(assuming he's alive) and cast obscuring myst(if available) then escape from web.

Should llyr die: kill allip(as above) then cast obscuring myst(if available) then escape from web.

If she runs out of cure spells and the allip is still allive: escape from web.

Once out of the web:

If anyone is still fighting for her: she will fight with them(dav first, then anyone). Flanking as best she can, attack whomever her companion is attacking ,or be attack max-defensively if she's unable to damage it.

If she is alliless: cast Invisibility(defensively if necessary) and try to get away.

Alexis and Dav, realizing that there is no chance of flight, grimly battle on.

Dav moves to flank the undead, hoping against hope that his magic sword can finish it off. However, soon both summoned apes are upon him, and while one of them (interestingly, the latter one summoned) vanishes, the first remains present.

Alexis, flustered by the web, and feeling the weight of all the companions with whom she has traveled on this venture (as she is all that remains of those that first set out to the Whispering Cairn), simply cannot focus enough on her spells.

At the end, while Dav scores a couple of hits, and Alexis manages to catch the creature once with a spell, Dav is brought down by the claws and bites of the apes.

Just after Dav falls, Alexis feels the ability to use her magic fade as the undead touches her yet again. With whatever failing efforts she gives, her mind is eventually shattered by the madness of the undead's touch.

The last thing she sees is the green-robed man wearing his leather mask, staring at her as the undead destroys her mind.
[sblock=OOC]Here comes the really, really, abbreviated version, skipping anything not important.

The casters all delay and/or simply move out of the way.
Dav: 5-foot step to flank 3; 13+, hit, 37%, hit 6 damage
Alexis: def 1!, fail
3: attacks A, 12+ hit, 2 WIS drain
8: squeeze move
9: steps attacks D, no hits

Dav: hits, 4 damage
Alexis: ROLLS ANOTHER 1 ON THE CONC CHECK
3: hits for 3 drain
8 & 9: full attack; 20 total damage

Dav: fails miss chance
Alexis: makes conc checks, fails touch attack, hold charge
3: hits for 4 drain
9: vanishes
8: attacks 15 damage; drops dav

Alexis: hits with the touch attack for 8 damage
3: hits for 2 wisdom drain

Alexis is stuck and has lost the ability to cast spells (wis of 9)... I'm gonna call it.
