As I am use to you 'watering my cheerios', I am sure I will goof something up here. oh well.

Heinrich looks about and sees one salamander is being double teemed by his compatriots. He is running out of useful spells of direct or indirect use. He is inspired suddenly as he moves forward to what looks to be an act of madness! Madness indeed!!!

points taken by Ablative Barrier: 5
non lethal held: 5

[sblock=Ablative barier]
Invisible layers of solid force surround and protect the target, granting that target a +2 armor bonus to AC. Additionally, the first 5 points of lethal damage the target takes from each attack are converted into nonlethal damage.

Against attacks that already deal nonlethal damage, the target gains DR 5/—.

Once this spell has converted 5 points of damage to nonlethal damage per caster level (maximum 50 points), the spell is discharged.[/sblock]

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Arianna slips the flank, lashing out as she moves, but the Salamanders are quick and her flurry comes to nothing. Ellamin begins reciting an exciting tale in a voice that carries easily even through the ambient sounds of the caverns; the rich voice inspires everyone to greater efforts. Elenka recites a few syllables in Draconic and a deep pit opens up beneath one of the Salamanders, who just manages to scrabble with hands and tail and keep his place in the scrimmage. Drev stomps around to a position of greater advantage and brings all four fists to bear, scoring a 'glancing blow' that nevertheless causes his foe to wince in pain. Anaerion holds his position and begins a complex series of gestures and incantations as the disembodied voice that is his constant companion hurls insults at the outsiders. Heinrich takes a page from his companion wizard's playbook and puts himself directly into the fight. He throws out his hands and fills the area over the pit and beyond with a strange, coruscating blend of sickly green fire and acid; the acid coats the skin of the Salamander leader, causing it to blister.

The two flunkies gesture and hiss, and move quickly to flank the wood-man. Their spears flash, the edges glowing white hot, and stab forward in a perfectly coordinated attack. His foe to the west sinks his spear deep into the forest king's side . . . though his friend's magics protect him from the heat the spear finds vital organs. He swipes with his tail as well, but the agile Drev slips the blow and it smacks into the cave wall. His foe to the east stabs out twice, and again Drev avoids the blows. He's not so quick to dodge the tail, however, which lands a resounding blow on Drev's rib-cage.

The blinded leader stabs in Arianna/Tek's general direction three times in quick succession, but misses all three attacks. He wipes furiously at his eyes; his gaze focuses on the floating summoner and her 'suit' as his vision clears!

GM: Party is up! (DeWar, could you let me know how many points remain on Heinrich's Ablative Barrier, pretty please ).

With the flunkies moving away, Arianna turns on the leader in a flurry of fury. Swiping with claws, kicking with feet, frustration is setting in as she is only able to land one kick against this opponent, which may be the strongest she has ever faced.

Anaerion, nearly at the end of his summoning, opens his arms wide and says in Celestial "Come, great protector of the heavens above! Your power is needed to strike down these abominations!" At once, a faint glow appears to the left of the leader, and a massive lion appears. Pointing at the leader Anaerion says "This creature has fouled this natural place for far to long. Kindly dispose of him."

The lion bounds forward, and jumps at the last second, in a rush of claws and fangs. The bite and the front 2 claws hit with deadly efficiency, but the back to claws just can't seem to reach the salamander.
Meanwhile, Anaerion says "This ground is no place to be standing around. Into the air we shall ascend!"
[sblock=Actions]

Finish summoning at D8. Speaking Celestial, Anearion orders the Lion to charge the one right in front of the pit.

[sunshadow21]

Ellamin continues to inspire his companions, as he finds no opportunity to use any of his other tricks effectively.

 

[GlassEye]

Elenka and Drevezh'korol, summoner and wood man

Drevezh'korol flails away at the salamander but his attacks are poorly timed and ill-executed. It seems the injuries he has taken are far more debilitating than one would expect. He shifts his position trying to get out of the pincher action that the two salamander have caught him in.

Elenka watches Heinrich totter at the edge of her pit and realizes she may have made a tactical blunder with her spell. The flashing attacks that pierce Drevezh'korol gain her attention and Elenka suddenly wishes to use her powers to draw Drevezh'korol back to her side but she doesn't want to leave Teq Oola exposed to all of the salamanders at once. She knows Drevezh'korol would take a long time forgiving her if she pulled him from the battle in such circumstances as well.

"Grrr... He'll just have to be mad," she mutters.

Elenka takes a step back and uses her link with Drevezh'korol to transport him back to her.

[sblock=OOC/Actions]Technically, a creature that ends its turn adjacent to the pit must make a Ref save (with a +2 bonus) or fall into the pit. This would affect both Heinrich and the Salamander Leader.

Drev:
Full-round attack:
Slam #1: PA+GMF+IC+Haste (1d20+15-2+1+2+1=21)
Slam #2: PA+GMF+IC+Haste (1d20+15-2+1+2+1=20)
Slam #3: PA+GMF+IC+Haste (1d20+15-2+1+2+1=23)
Disturbing. Drev only needs a 7 to hit. Six attacks over two rounds and only one has hit.

[Maidhc O Casain]

The Salamander leader snarls in the face of the lion that has him firmly in its jaws, and shoves the arm deeper, forcing the great cat's mouth open. He grasps his foe by the mane, steps and twists, and the lion finds itself held over Elenka's pit. The Salamander smiles wickedly, and lets go. The fall elicits a roar of fury from the angelic feline.

Meanwhile the two Flunkies, deprived of their target, adapt quickly to the changing situation and step up to Arianna. The girl and her monster deftly bob and weave, and manage to avoid almost all of the flurry of spear thrusts and tail slaps. Flunky 02 manages to smack her with a thick tail, but the impact is negligible.

[sblock=Combat!]

• Heinrich teeters at the edge of the pit, but successfully avoids falling in (made his DEX Check).
• Salamander Leader successfully reverses Grapple, executes Move & Drop. Lion fails to escape Grapple (at +4 for Dangerous Condition condition), and is dropped into the pit. Salamander makes its DEX check to avoid falling.
• Salamanders 01 & 02 take 5' Steps, attack Arianna/Tek.

Anyone ending their turn adjacent to a straight edge of the pit (not the corners) must make a DC 19 DEX check to avoid falling in.
