Sollir tucks his wand in his belt as he tries to move behind everyone, hopefully going unnoticed while drawing his shortbow...
The halfling takes cover behind the large stone block.

(Standard Action is putting the wand back, and move while drawing my shortbow, going diagonal-is this possible?-to N8, N9, P10, and finally P11, if this is not possible i'll simply go to P9)
(No, actually, assuming you mean O8, O9, P10 and P11, you can move in diagonals, but it costs 5’ for the first diagonal move and 10’ for the second. So you can go to P10. It goes like this : O8 (5’), O9(10’), P10 (20’), P11 (25’). Going to P11 would require a double-move.)
Then, the undead priest, his attention focused on Ubaar, chants another vile incantation, which the priests in the party recognize as a Doom spell. As his chanting reaches its zenith, the abomination points at the half-orc. A sickly purple mist appears around the barbarian, but Ubaar grits his teeth and shakes off the compulsion, and the mist disappears. The priest of Velsharoon seems to lose a bit of confidence at this display of will.

Seeing the youthful warrior in trouble, Jalon immediately turns his attentions to the ghoul threatening her. After lashing out with his longsword in an attempt to drive the ghoul away from Kytess, Jalon looks over his shoulder and begins barking orders -
'Sollir, Ivellios - Kytess is in trouble! Help me drive back these ghouls!'
The ghoul dodges the blow. Then, the spider throws a web at Ivellios, who dodges again.

"And what are those little spikeys gonna do to the spider-from-hell?!
If you want a target, Murhid, either go after raggedy-man or help us finsih off these things!
I know their claws *groan* hurt, but we won't go down without taking a lot of em with us!
Ubaar's been in tight spots before - we just gotta keep on swingin'."
Seeing Kytess stone cold and the threatening ghoul - "someone stop that ghoul from nailing Kyte!
UBAAR's the only one that should be doing that!"
Murhid said:
"Like I said, distract 
. Kytess ok?" Murhid says, who's view is a little obstructed by the spider carcass.
Murhid then focuses on his former opponent, and with a bit of a snarl, sends a couple wide swings into him.
With a practiced ease and a series of punches, the monk dispatches the weakened ghoul. (4 points of damage)

Ubaar will trust in the servant of Tyr to prevent the ghoul from taking out Kytess.
He'll concentrate on the ghoul to his right
"Die, you brain-sucking BUUB !" Ubaar growls menacingly while laying into the lifeless ghoul.
The ghoul is slow to dodge and the blow cuts it in two. Its upper torso flops to the ground. (19 damage !)
Taz said:
Taz will delay until after Ubaar has acted. If the Ghoul threatening Kytess has not been defeated by then, she'll take out the wand of magic missiles and shoot a load in its direction, still holding her dagger ready for an AoO.
The pair of purple energy missiles strike the ghoul, scoring deep marks on its chest. Then, it jumps at Kytess trying to bite her neck off. In doing so, it ignores Taz and Jalon, who strike at it. Jalon is too slow to hit it, but Taz pokes the ghoul in the side. It manages to tear off a good chunk of Kytess’ throat out, but the wound Taz inflicted on it was vital, and it collapses on the warrior as the human’s lifeblood sprays everywhere. (Jalon, and so by extension Kytess, isn’t lucky on hit rolls this round, with a 4 and a 6. The magic missiles did 8 damage and Taz’s dagger 3 points. The CdG from the ghoul did 6 points of damage. I rolled the fortitude save but I’m not talking until someone inspects those wounds.)
The other ghouls surge forward in a frenzy of claws and teeth, with intense hunger in their dead eyes. The pair at the far end of the room charge at Taz, seeing a helpless prey. She dodges the first one but the second cuts her forearm ups with its claw. Her arm starts feeling numb, the wand getting heavier in her hand. Jalon also manages to block most of the attacks from his two ghouls, but a claw gets through and scores a slight wound on his chest. Finally, Ubaar’s ghoul uses his battle frenzy to its advantage and cuts him up with a claw and even manages to bite his arm and he’s on a backswing with his massive sword. (3 damage for Taz, 1 damage for Jalon, 2 and 3 damage for Ubaar, all claws with poison)
(And Ubaar and Jalon both shook off last round’s ghoul venom.)
And in the meantime, Ivellios has sheathed his swords and has drawn his powerful bow, intent on killing that webslinger once and for all.
Here's the initiative for next round.
Ivellios
Sollir
The ghoul’s boss
Jalon
Spider #1 (the one over the web)
Kytess
Murhid
Ubaar
Taz
The Ghoul Army
And the status of the party :

(M) Murhid : Hp (5/21)
4 points of dexterity damage, spider poison ?
(T) Taz : Hp (16/19),

Amazingly, we were able to put out the fire before it caught elsewhere - I could have been houseless (with insufficient fire coverage, too!). I'm just glad everything worked out.
