OOC: Sorry for the lack of an update. I'm giving the others a chance to announce actions, since this is a deadly encounter if not handled properly.

Dartis fires two more shots, his first bouncing off the flesh golem's skin, while his next embeds itself deep into its neck. Alexander gets into the act, getting in close and slashing at is with his blades, but misses. Still, he drives the creature back, a few feet closer to the pit. In retaliation, the flesh golem punches Alexander, knocking the wind out of the half-orc and bringing him to his knees (takes -13 hp). Alexander begins to wonder if a direct attack was really in his best interest.
Rix fires his crossbow bolt, nailing the gnome as the crazy man runs up the stairs. He screeches in pain, but is still able to cast a spell. You see a number of images appear around him, each looking like an eerie twin. Silas and Kel successfully cast their spells.

The gnome has three extra images around him when he appears above you on the platform. Rix fires, but misses badly. Dartis moves next, firing two arrows at the gnome, and impacting with one arrow, but it hits the wrong Astraughlay. The gnome's image disappears, leaving him with two. With a chuckle, he casts a spell that causes a cone of colors to reach down towards you, just barely enveloping Rix, who falls unconscious.
The flesh golem raises a fist to crush Alexander, when Silas screams and rams into him. Amazingly, the golem is partly lifted unto the abjurer's staff (natural 20 for Silas!, not so good an opposed roll by the flesh golem...) and knocked backwards to the edge of the pit. It swings at Silas, missing him. With a frightened wail, the creatures sees the flames of the pit that it is falling into and makes a desperate grab, snagging Silas' robes. The two fall into the flames... (Silas takes 3 points of damage from the fire).
Kel arrives right as Silas goes over the edge. As he peers down, he can see the abjurer desperately grasping for the side as he slides ever deeper into the flame. The flesh golem is frozen by the fire, a look of pain and anguish frozen onto his face. His arm is also frozen, and he grasps Silas' robes in a unbreakable grip. Quickly thinking, Kel reaches down and grabs Silas' arm, preventing the magic-user from slipping further down into the fire.
Alexander charges upwards, intent on meeting the gnome in single combat.

Seeing Silas fall into the pit, Dartis quickly springs into action. Judgint hat Alexander will kep the gnome busy for a bit, Dratis dashs over, his bow still in his left hand, his right quickly draw his trusty sword and the young noble reaches downt to cut the robe still being held by the foul construct.

Silas stares in amazement and horror down at the golem. He never imagined that such a creature could feel pain and anguish. He is frozen and somewhat sickened by the revelation and the result of his own action and despite the pain of some burns is nearly oblivious to his own precarious situation. That quickly changes as Kel yells and only as Dartis begins cutting at his robe does Silas begin scrabbling at his belt for his dagger.

Kel has trouble holding the weight of Silas and the creature, but keeps Silas from being engulfed in the flames (-3 hp of damage). Dartis falls next to Kel, and slashes at the robe, cutting a tear in it. Silas is forced to drop his quarterstaff in order to scramble out of the pit, now that he is free. The trio roll outside of and away from the pit, and Silas extinguishes the budding flames on his clothes before they become stronger.
With a roar, Alexander charges the gnome, but after a few arcane words, the half-orc stops in mid-charge, a friendly look on his face as he smiles at the man (charmed).
