She keeps her focus on the large aberration and slashes at it with her glaive.  "You two can surrender if you want, this might be your only chance.  Otherwise we dance until your heads come off once I finish with this creature."Unfortunately her slashes have little impact than to show she cannot hit much of anything half of the time.[sblock=Actions]<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3921027/" target="_blank">Will Save (1d20+8=20)</a>5ft Step to K10Maintain Battle Dance & Activate Arcane StrikeFull Attack: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3921028/" target="_blank">1st Attack Glaive  vs. Wrathspawn (AS/FF/PA/BD) (1d20+13=14, 1d10+20=23)</a> & <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3921029/" target="_blank">2nd Attack Glaive  vs. Wrathspawn (AS/FF/PA/BD) (1d20+6=14,  1d10+20=26)</a>If Applicable: [/sblock][sblock=Mini Stats]Initiative: +8AC: 25 (22 flat-footed, 15 Touch) HP: 87 Current: 87CMB: +13 CMD: 28 (29 vs. Sundering) Fort: +8 Reflex: +9 Will: +8 Conditions in Effect: Arcane Strike (+1 dmg), Power Attack (-2 Att/+6 dmg), Furious Focus (no penalty for 1st PA), Overhand Chop, Battle Dance (+1 Att/Dmg)Current Weapon in Hand: GlaiveChakram: 8/8 Claws: 5/5 rounds remainingBattle Dance: 14/14 Rounds RemainingSpells Remaining: Cantrips: (Read Magic, Detect Magic, Resistance, Light, Prestidigitation, Mending)1st Level 4/5 (Cure Light Wounds, Timely Inspiration, Grease(DC13), Vanish)2nd Level 3/3 (Glitterdust(DC14), Minor Image, Gallant Inspiration)CarakInitiative: +2; Senses: low-light vision, scent; Perception: +8 AC: 16 (flat-footed 14, touch 12) HP: 13/13 CMB: +3 CMD: 15 (19 vs. trip) Fort: +5(6) Reflex: +5(6) Will: +1(2)[/sblock]___________________________<img src="http://i956.photobucket.com/albums/ae47/perrinmiller/Living%20Pathfinder/Cythera.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /> <a href="http://livingpf.wikia.com/wiki/Cythera_e%27Kiernan_%28perrinmiller%29" target="_blank">Cythera e'Kiernan</a> <img src="http://i956.photobucket.com/albums/ae47/perrinmiller/Carak-Husky.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /> Carak[sblock=OOC]Cythera's positioning and entire plan of actions was  actually based on those two foes rising from a seated position as a Move  Action and provoking an AoO.  So I respectfully disagree, and do not  think the ruling is correct.  Particularly since I think I had this ruled the other  way on these boards already.While it is not covered specifically  in the Core Rules, it does state that movement within a threaten space  provokes AoOs unless taking a Withdraw or 5ft step.  Mechanically,  rising from kneeling or sitting is treated like Prone in that regards,  because it costs a full Move Action to perform.  Most Move  Actions provoke, not the other way around, so to say otherwise appears  to be contrary to the spirit of actions by giving them an exemption from  an AoO to rise from a chair. If it was ruled a Swift Action or  Immediate Action, then I would suggest otherwise perhaps.  But, near as I  can tell it should be a Move Action.Reality also argues in  favor of it being like prone. They need to push back from the table to  be able to stand and are just as vulnerable to the weapon threatening  them. The chair and table are both in the way and hindering their  actions, thus requiring their attention be taken away from the glaive in  their face.[/sblock]</blockquote>
