Ironheart brings his axe crashing down on the swordsman's upraised weapon, splintering the sword and continuing through to split the eladrin near in two. He grunts as he pulls the axe free from the corpse and turns towards the bowman.
"THAT'S how it's done," he growls in satisfaction.
"You're next."
As the bowman takes a nervous step backwards, Ironheart swings his axe overhand again. The bowman flinches - and relaxes as the axe crashes into the ground next to him.
"You think I missed?" Ironheart lears. The earth splits open wider around the gash left by his axe, and a tentacle-like vine surges forth and grabs the bowman around the ankle, yanking him to the ground and dragging his leg into the crack. The bowman screams and struggles to tear herself loose as something within grinds against her flesh. At last she yanks free and tries to stand, but collapses back to the earth as her leg gives way under her. It is ringed with red, bleeding sucker marks.
Haruka grasps at the tendrils encircling her and pulls them towards her. The shadows cover her like a shroud, blotting out her body and leaving only her silhouette visible.
Ikni watches the battle unfold around her. She sees the nearer swordsman wind up for a cut at Haruka's exposed side, and without stopping to think, she reaches her free hand towards the swordsman and
twists. Suddenly he is no longer there, but instead is standing behind the winged female fey. The blade has too much momentum to stop, though, and it cuts deeply into her.
Ikni smiles, but her concentration lapses, and the harpy's shriek overwhelms her senses. Reeling, she lashes out at the bird-woman with her blade, which releases a jet of simmering green acid that coats the woman, eating away at her flesh. Finally, Ikni draws deeply on herself and, teeth gritted in concentration, sketches her warding mark and sends it floating toward the panther harassing Rhole.
Rhole's song competes with the Harpy's, pulling Derien to and fro. He tries to return the favor with some more of Netari's fire, but to no result.
With a panther more than twice the size of Rhole clawing at his face, the gnome is unable to concentrate on playing his epic ballad. He twangs the strings of the Great Ultra-Intense Thundering Audio Ripper to send rippling sound at the feline beast, but they are far too weak to make any worthwhile impact. The panther tries to take advantage of the situation, but his teeth grab a chunk of earth instead.

vs ac; dmg (1d20 7=8, 1d6 3=4) miss...badly[/sblock]
The swordsmen head still swims as he holds the blade up defensively.
The bowwoman fires two arrows at Ironheart, the first goes well wide, likely caused by the terrible blow that the warden caused, but the second causes some of the wood woad's leafs to wilt.
The panther deftly swings around Rhole and this time tears into him, but Ikni's magical warding prevents all but the most superficial wound.
As the acid burns the harpy, she screams a horrible shriek that blasts into all those close to her, friend or foe. Unfortunately for her, the blast effects more friendly targets. She flies back a few steps and sings a more affectionate song and all but Derien are drawn to her, again.
The dragon curses in frustration at the events and flies to a better vantage place on the bridge.
[sblock=ooc]
sword 20 - total defense -
save (1d20=4) still dazed Yowzers.
bow fires two shots at Ironheart - draws OA
vs ac; dmg (1d20 9=19, 1d10 10=20) hits for max! -
vs ref; dmg (1d20 8=9, 1d10 1d6=9, 1d20 8=23, 1d10 1d6=8) not really worth it, hits once for 8....boo-urns
panther bites Rhole, shifting 1 from the attack, then shifting 1 on his move action -
vs ac; dmg (1d20 7=23, 1d6 4=9) hits for 9, although I'm assuming Ikni will use his aegis of shielding so it only does 1.
When harpy takes ongoing damage on her turn it triggers desperate shriek as a free action -
vs fort (ikni, rhole, derien, haruka, panther, sword); thunder dmg (1d20 9=21, 1d6 2=8, 1d20 9=10, 1d6 2=6, 1d20 9=12, 1d6 2=4, 1d20 9=11, 1d6 2=7, 1d20 9=28, 1d6 2=6, 1d20 9=20, 1d6 2=7) hits ikni crits panther and hits sword 20...ouch that super sucks... Ikni takes 3 thunder damage (after resist), other 2 take 8 and all are dazed (save ends)
She moves back and then uses alluring song on you -
vs will(ikni, rhole, derien, haruka (1d20 9=25, 1d20 9=25, 1d20 9=14, 1d20 9=27) all but derien are affected this time, all are immobilized still save ends and she pulls everyone close. She fails to recharge power....
Dragon double moves onto bridge, when he does the panther disappears from your sight. (I left token where you last saw him)
