Message: <blockquote data-quote="Satin Knights" data-source="post: 6178802" data-attributes="member: 6666968">The hound moves forward carefully and past where Relic had expected.  It responds nearly instantly [sblock=Relic] "One that way and three right here." [/sblock]Pointing with gestures that are just barely on the edge of Relic's vision field. The hound takes a defensive posture, raising its greatsword.With another outsider walking up and looking right at them, the chuul are annoyed that their ambush has failed.  They pour forth from the side chamber, finding that their size is working against them significantly in this endeavor.  As the lobster-like beast swings his claw, the hound archon defends himself with a heavy stroke of his blade.  While sinking deep, this is not enough to deter the chuul's attack.  Grabbing the smaller hound, it crushes with its massive claw, but the warrior seems mostly unfazed by the attack.  A second chuul comes out of the side passage and strikes with a claw as well.  The archon, although grappled by these beasts, still has plenty of fight left in him.[sblock=Aradra]You see that the one shot with arrows returns once the melee starts.  2 others came from the side.  You don't speak celestial, so you don't know what the archon reported.[/sblock][sblock=Combat Round 4]Relic: A lesser rod only handles spells up to third level, so the archon only has 8 rounds.  Where you indicated gave him sight on the first to the right, and another 5' step gave him full view of the room.  Better than spending 3 rounds in each direction with detect evil if he could just eyeball it.  As a summons, he never dies, so he doesn't mind the direct approach.  And you didn't specifically tell him to use the Detect Evil SLA.  Just cautiously find the evil ones. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" />...91/96 ~ AC 18 ~ Daylily ~ horsechopper and cestus ~ Stealth 21...55/59 ~ AC 14+4 ~ Relic ~ Mage Armor 580 rds ~ ...94/96 ~ AC 21 ~ Aradra ~ Darkvision 110 min, Perceive Clues 70 min, longstrider 70 min ~...99/101 ~ AC 22+1+3+4 ~ Shadow ~ Barkskin 70min, Mage Armor 584rds ~ amulet active ~...122/127 ~ AC 27 ~ Frost ~ Heroism 617 rds ~....41/51 ~ AC 19+2 ~ Hound Archon 8 rounds ~ moved, readied strike <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207724/" target="_blank">Readied power attack (1d20+9=23)</a> hits for <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207727/" target="_blank">augmented power attack damage (2d6+15=23)</a>..54/85 ~ AC 22 ~ Chuul A  ~ moved <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207792/" target="_blank">Will save (1d20+9=19)</a> succeeds..62/85 ~ AC 22 ~ Chuul B  ~ move 25, claw <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207697/" target="_blank">claw (1d20+14=25)</a> for <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207704/" target="_blank">damage (2d6+7=16)</a> + <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207705/" target="_blank">Grab attempt (1d20+19=22)</a> succeeds for <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207723/" target="_blank">constrict damage (2d6+7=14)</a> <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207802/" target="_blank">will save (1d20+9=23)</a> succeeds..85/85 ~ AC 22 ~ Chuul C  ~ move and <s> <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207732/" target="_blank">claw attack (1d20+14=20)</a> hits for <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207733/" target="_blank">damage (2d6+7=14)</a> </s> <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207803/" target="_blank">will save (1d20+9=14)</a> failed Aura of Menace negated attack..85/85 ~ AC 22 ~ Chuul D  ~ boxed in <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4207805/" target="_blank">will save (1d20+9=19)</a> succeedsEdit: Aura of Menace and Magic Circle vs Evil did negate the 2nd Chuul's attack.
