Clubhouse: The Shearing Pen

Greybar, can you help us out with the Forestkith Goblin Barbarian in the Abyssal Arena?

I think you are only one with the Monster Manual III.

Important Announcement

A tall, blue humanoid with a long, drooping jawline and extremely expensive-looking clothes and jewelry steps up to the announcement podium. He -- at least he resembles a he more than a she -- clears his throat and speaks in a deep, but clear voice. His words are instantly translated so that all may hear.

"This is an update on the progress in the Battle of All Alignments. The Evil factions are faring very poorly against the Neutrals. They repeatedly get their asses kicked, but they are more numerous than halflings on stolen loot, so they still appear to be ahead in the standings. The Good factions fare well in battle against the Neutrals, yet remain behind in the score due to the lack of morons who actually want to be Good. The extreme Neutrals from Limbo and Mechanus are the only factions who are winning both in terms of wins vs. losses and in numbers remaining."

The mercane then steps down and without another words heads into the back office of the Shearing Pen.
 

The mercane comes back out of the office, looking for the psionic brachiosaurus.

"Psybo, the Neutrals have a job for you announcing and refereeing in the new Outland Arena. It doesn't pay much, but ......."

The mercane is stopped short as Psybo leaves in a blur. Luckily for the Shearing Pen, the stone walls are supplemented with walls of force, or there would have been a gaping hole to use as a new exit to the clubhouse. The actual doors weren't so lucky, they took a beating and were still frantically swinging back and forth in the wake of Psybo's exit.
 

At precisely 1313hrs, a messenger delivers a missive to the announcer.
"On behalf of the evil factions, even the CE rabble, we would like to compliment the other factions for their great successes. We trust that when our dragons enter the arena and begin mopping the floor that the other factions will cheer them on, as we have enjoyed their one-sided, cake-walk, stat-padding, victories over the Neutrals."
 


If I gain nothing else from this little (little? probably not a term Gansk would use...) exercise, it an awareness of how poorly I absorb information if I don't read it more than once. Gads. I'm not talking about the "enter on the wrong side because you're playing Neutral" dyslexia, I'm talking about waiting forever for a dragon, getting one in the arena, and then mis-reading it's stats about EIGHT times. This is not to say I even have it correct yet, just that I'm less wrong.
This stress will, of course, be relieved if Cloret the Green Tyrant can just wipe-out about 83 opponents...

Why isn't the lion getting AoO's on the air elemental? Flyby attack does not negate AoO.

No, but Spring Attack does.
Edit: I just looked it up, and the elemental does not have Spring Attack. I goofed on this one.
