All but Leita stand frozen, staring at the Huge Snake's maleveolent eyes. The calm is broken as she fires an arrow into the massive snake, though the twig seems insignificant against such a massive beast
Meanwhile, a short ways away, a certain intelligent dinosaur hears the commotion and decides to investigate.
[sblock=ooc]
The arrow actually DID do damage, i wasn't posting it as 'insignificant' ala damage reduction, more a factor of how many HP this thing has.
OK Fangor, starting next round you're top of initiative as you come across the scene. You've fought these 'snakes' before, they keep stealing your food, and you know they're bad news. Perhaps helping out these humans will end up helping you out.
Everybody else, the snake didn't act during the surprise round. I"ll be NPCing Kyo and the White Mage for now.

Sly moves swiftly, as he's adept to the surrounding area. This damned hunt had gone on long enough, and now, the thief was nearby. Constantly having to hide his food, often times not well enough, Sly figured the best way to stop it from stealing his food was to make it into food.
Finding the huge snake, he knew it would not be an easy kill. Fortunately, it seems that a group of wandering people are now attacking it. Realizing the old saying of an enemy of my enemy is a friend, Sly sneers, as he goes into action.
He charges forth, his quickness is alarming, as his aura switches to grant him an added bonus to his upcoming attacks. (Power Aura 30' for extra 2 damage for melee attacks only)
Leaping with a stealthy attack, Sly jumps out of the foliage, and onto his prey. Trying to bite down and claw as well, Sly's talons, teeth and foreclaws go to work swiftly.
[sblock=Leaping Charge Attack Option 1](Leap Attack, Pounce Ability, Full attack. If he can't charge this round, then please use option 2 below)
Can charge up to 120 feet, leaping power attack for extra damage, power attack 3, extra dmg of 9 for leaping attack. +2 melee dmg for Power Aura as well.
Attacks are: Full Attack Talons 14/ 9, Foreclaws 9/ 9, Bite 9 (1d20 13=29, 1d20 8=17, 1d20 8=18, 1d20 8=17, 1d20 8=16)
Damage, if these hit, are: Melee dmg (2d6 20=28, 2d6 20=27, 1d3 16=18, 1d3 16=17, 2d4 16=19)
I think I got the dmg wrong, as it should be 3 less for EACH of those damage rolls. I don't have the book with me right now for Leap Attack, but I think with natural weapons, since they are not two handed weapons, I can only gain the x2 bonus, and not the x3. I am not sure..
If I hit with at least two DIFFERENT attacks, such as talon and bite, or talon and foreclaw, then I would like to REND as well, rending gauntlets 3/day REND (2d6=8)[/sblock]
[sblock=Hide and Move Silently Option 2]I am hoping I can charge this snake... otherwise, Sly will simply Move Silently, Hide in the bushes, preparing to charge on the next round. He will move to setup a charge, making sure he has a clear line if possible, and a chance to leap as well. I am more than likely sure that he will have to hide and move silently this round, but I posted his possible leap attack above, just in case he had the ability.
Hide and Move Silently if needed (1d20 33=50, 1d20 25=43)[/sblock]

Leita draws and fires three more arrows at the enemy snake. She is surprised by the additional combatant but is grateful for the help. Introductions will have to wait until after the snake is vanquished.

Mikken, HP 75/75, AC 24
Mikken recovers from his brief surprise, only to see another lizard jump out and attack the giant snake.... He shakes it off after a few seconds and rushes forward to help Kyo protect the others. Mikken draws his katana and wakizashi as he moves in, slashing once with the katana as he gets in position between the white mage and the snake.
[sblock=ooc]Mikken uses the wakizashi's Defending property for +2 AC this round, and his Dodge feat applies against the giant snake, both factored into his AC above.
Primary-hand katana +11 melee for 1d10+4 damage
Rolls on InvisibleCastle (if needed): 22 to hit for 6 damage
Katana attack and damage versus giant snake (1d20+11=22, 1d10+4=6)
Mikken's Spells (none actve): Detect Magic, Light, Light, Mending, Read Magic, Feather Fall, Mage Armor, Mage Armor, Magic Missile, Magic Missile, Magic Missile, Magic Missile, Acid Arrow, Bull's Strength, Cat's Grace, Knock, Scorching Ray, Dispel Magic, Haste, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Bolt, Ice Storm, Mass Enlarge Person, Stone Shape.[/sblock]

Sly leaps out of the bushes, pouncing on the snake though only his initial talon strike manages to pierce it's thick scales.
Leita's arrows fly in above the dinosaur, two sticking into the snake while a third snaps against its hide.
Mikken rushes forwards attacking, though his strike does nothing more than shave off a few scales as Kyo stands staring in awe.
The Snake hisses angrily at the Dinosaur that assaulted it, Flashign forwards and wrapping him in its coils as it sinks its fangs deep into him.
The sudden movement of the enemy finally snaps Kyo out of his bewilderment, rushing at the beast and driving his katana deep into its side, as the white mage's magic reaches out, healing the dinosaurs wounds.
[sblock=ooc]
Snake's attack: Bite (1d20+24=34, 2d6+18=29) Improved Grab Grapple: Snake/Sly (1d20+34=44, 1d20+16=17)
Sly fort save DC 28 (1d20+12=26)
Con damage from Poison (1d8=4)
Cure serious wounds (3d8+16=31)
OUCH.. OK, Sly takes 29 damage, 4 con damage, and is grappled.. However, the White Mage heals the damage, leaving you grappled with 4 con damage.
Kyo's attack vs snake (1d20+17=37, 1d20+12=21, 1d10+15=24, 1d10+15=19)
Critical Confirmation (1d20+17=33) Nice crit... for an NPC
FYI, this is a VERY tough encounter, but don't be discouraged by the things melee power.

Mikken, HP 75/75, AC 24
Mikken hesitates again for a moment, stepping back and sheathing his katana to cast a spell. Speaking a few words of magic, finishing with "Haste!"
[sblock=OOC] Decided a spell would be best, rather than waiting. Starting on Mikken's turn, everyone except Leita, the white mage, and the giant snake, is under a Haste spell. +1 dodge AC, +1 on attack rolls, +30 feet of movement speed, and one extra attack per round on a full-attack with a weapon. Haste spell isn't really clear on whether or not that part applies with natural weapons.
Sorry Leita, you're outside the range, since each Haste target needs to be within 30 feet of all the others when it's cast, and you're still 35-40 feet away from Mikken, Kyo, and the dinosaur.
Mikken continues holding the wakizashi in a defensive position, for +2 AC, as factored in above.[/sblock]

"I'm not that easy of a meal..." Sly roars, as he instantly appears 10 feet away from the foe. (Anklet of Translocation, Swift Action to move 10 feet away, 1 left)
Then, seeing the other potential allies, he warns, "Watch out for his bite... it drains you."
Then, without hesitating, he then spits at the snake, letting it have a little acid shower to work with.
[sblock=Breath Weapon]30’ line, 5d6dmg, 1d4 rounds to replenish, DC18 Reflex Save for 1/2
Breath Weapon Acid dmg, and Rounds until replenish (5d6=20, 1d4=2)

Leita continues her relentless attack by drawing three more arrows and firing them at the snake. She does not hesitate to fire into combat for she has been trained for just such a tactic.
