OOC: The stairs are going down, not up.
--------------------------------------------
Uulark passes the far side of the table toward the stairs and feels a sudden sting under his armor*. He looks, and sees an amorphous mass of shifting goo hiding in the shadows. Its numerous claws, teeth, and pincers continually shift throughout its body.
*Uulark takes 4 damage and needs to make a fortitude save

"You there!" Buurt freezes at the voice. He hadn't heard them coming.
"What're you doing there? Come out in the light!" Buurt almost answers, almost steps out before he sees the two angry watchmen with their swords drawn. They're looking away, across the street to where...
The huge human walks slowly to the watchmen, his hands up in the air. Buurt can see a furtive glance his way, and hoped the watchmen hadn't seen it too. Dyspeer starts to growl, a low, threatening gesture that makes the hairs half-orc's neck stand on end. A quick pat on the head settles him for now.
"Eh, look who it is! The boss's been wantin' a word or two with you big fella." As one speaks, the other looks around intently. "Where's the dwarf?" he asks.
"No dwarf," the big man replies. "Just me. Take me now, I'll not fight you."
The guards laugh. "Oh, ye'll be doin' some fightin' alright. Count on that!"
With a prod on the backside from the watchman's sword, the large human begins to walk. True to his word, he does not fight, and his eyes lock on to Buurt's for a moment as he passes.
A single whisper escapes the half-orc's lips as the watchmen escort the man out of sight to whatever doom may await him.
"Rokelsh...."
[sblock=OOC]I thought it befitting to give him a proper send-off rather than just losing him in the streets somewhere.[/sblock]

Uulark fairly jumps out of his skin, so alarmed is he by the assault of the beast. Before he can even speak, Uulark casts Expeditious Retreat almost by reflex. But it may be too late, his fort save was an 11. Uulark's fort save vs. the next chaos beast's attack. (1d20+5=11)
If he is able to get his spell completed, Uulark will head staight for the doorway that the group just entered through. Thus, one standard action will be spent casting Expeditious Retreat and his other standard action will be a move (at 50') to just inside the doorway between Shai and Rogash.

Shaimon Hu'u, barbaric human druid
[back in time...] "Big wingspan? Sounds like that devil minotaur critter we sacked, doesn't it? You figure that might be this Alchor?
"And I definitely know 'bout disappearing barkeeps. Tanith, when I met her and her folk, the quest we were on was to bring back these magic nuts to save a barkeep's hide, only by the time we got back, the place was boarded up. And now Tanith's gone, too..." The druid seems to pout a bit at the thought.
[but then...]
"Another one?" Shai calls out, terrified at the thought of another friend turning into goo. As he draws and fires his bow, he whistles a complicated trill, calling Dyspeer to him, hoping Buurt and Rokelsh will thus be drawn behind him.
[sblock=OOC] Free action to use Come command for Dyspeer. Move action to draw bow.
longbow attack; damage (1d20+7=27, 1d8+3=8)
Argh! My first natural 20, and it's for a creature that's immune to critical hits! Curse you, Invisible Castle, and your sense of irony!

The Dwarf pulls his bow and quickly sends an arrow (1d20+10=13) in the direction of the beast, but his aim is off. He mumbles something under his breath but the only clear words are 'cat', 'curiosity' and a couple of swear words in dwarven.

Caewryn starts at the realisation of the new beast and is fumbling with his sword as he tries to deturmine the best path of getting to the creature.
Movement:
2 squares NW (15 feet)
1 square N (5 feet)
1 square NE (5 feet)
total movement: 25 feet
(this may have to be changed if someone gets there before him. ick! init of 1)
he will then strike the creature (hopefully)
attack (1d20+13=20) base number: 7 (non crit)
dam:
damage (2d6+7=19)

On seeing the chaos beast, Talashia cries out "Watch out!!" but it's too late. The creature strikes before she can speak.
Furious, she hurls a blast of energy at the creature, unwilling to risk a miss with a lightning bolt. The blast splits into three smaller shards, which wheel around Uulark to strike at the monster directly!
(Magic Missile - 13 damage. Roll Lookup Note that this is a 6th level Magic Missile. I'm assuming that Talashia hasn't "leveled" yet, since I want her to get this PrC. If you rule that her spells are 7th level, then add 1d4+1 to that damage roll.)

[sblock=Shai]
Shai launches an impossible shot at the beast on the other side of the table, and miraculously hits the out-of-sight target.*
[sblock=Rogash]
Rogash's arrow bounces off the table between he and the chaos beast.
[sblock=Talishia]
The creature wails as Talishia's magical energy does its work.
[sblock=Uulark]
Uulark begins the motions for his spell, but is interrupted as the chaos beast strikes him again.**
[sblock=Caerwyn]
Caerwyn's blade nearly severs the beast in half, but its amorphous mass seals the wound almost immediately.
The beast lashes out at the paladin in retaliation, surprising him with an impressive blow.***
* I'd normally take cover into account, but since it was a natural 20 it's a hit anyway...
** Uulark takes 3 damage; Fort save vs. DC 14=13; spell fails
*** Crit! Caerwyn takes 7 damage and saves again the effect (also a natural 20, go figure)
