Round 3 cont.
Latalya continues to shoot the weird creature. (OOC: Darkwood composite longbow full attack 1, miss; 17 + 8 – 4 (cover) – 4 (firing into melee) = 17, hit! Damage 1d8 + 6 = 10 hp)
Reivik hauls himself upright, hefting Bar in both hands. "That's the way!" he commends the elemental, and swings the hammer at the horrid blob-creature. (OOC: adamantine greathammer full attack 18 + 8 = 26, hit! Damage 1d12 + 32 = 35 hp; 13 + 3 = 16, miss)
(OOC: Eshanna will no longer be nauseated next round)
Round 4
The creature now engaged with his elemental, Mavic drew a slender metal capped wand from its place in the tidy red leather sheath at his side. Twisting the yew device with elegant precision, Mavic unleashed it's rather pathetic furies at the creature. (OOC: wand of magic missles does 5 hp of damage to the ooze)
With the relentless fury of a tsunami, the water elemental continues striking at the amorphous creature. Sadly it is not able to land a solid hit on the blob. (OOC: slam attack#1 9 + 10 + 1 (water mastery) – 6 (Power Attack) = 14, miss! slam attack#2 8 + 10 + 1 (water mastery) – 6 (Power Attack) = 13, miss!)
Not really feeling better, but able to control himself, Morley attempts to unleash his arrows at the creature. In the split second he leaves himself open as he is firing the first arrow, the creature strikes at him with its gigantic pseudopod. It catches him full in the chest, knocking him back against the wall where he crumples into a unmoving heap. (OOC: attack of opportunity hits AC 24, hit! Morley takes 31 hp of damage which brings him to -6 hp; Morley falls unconscious)
Hoping that his retching is finished George gingerly walks over to Latalya and grabs a single cold iron arrow. Then before he can notch it, he turns his head away and spews more of the morning breakfast. (OOC: George will no longer be nauseated next round)
The ebony blob turns its attention back to the water elemental, striking at it viciously. (OOC: Slam attack hits AC 26, hit! Elemental takes 21 hp of damage)
The creature’s tendrils, covered in poisonous acid, continue whipping around its body like living hairs, a danger to anyone around them. (Reivik Reflex save 14 + 6 = 20, failure! Reivik takes 2 hp of acid damage; Mavic Reflex save 20, success! Morley automatic failure! Morley takes 1 hp of acid damage, which brings him to -7 hp)
OOC: So far, the ooze has taken 94 hp of damage.

OOC: That'll teach me to make assumptions about the AC of an ooze! Black Pudding, AC 3; Gelatinous Cube, AC 4; Gray Ooze, AC 5; Ochre Jelly, AC 4... whatever I was expecting, it wasn't 17! /OOC
Startled as he manages to swing wide of his mark, Reivik aims his next attacks more carefully.
"Mavic - have your pet grab the thing! It won't stay still!"
OOC: Ratchet the Power Attack back down to -5/+12. Two attacks, +13/+8, 1d12 + 22. /OOC

Latalya
OOC: ...especially in the midst of combat...
Hearing someone drop, which could only be Morley, Latalya calls out: “Someone help him!” Then she fires more arrows, given her success of the last volleys it seems like a good idea and moving to the front seems pretty impossible to do right now.

Eshanna winced from the middle, unable to clearly press herself to the immediate aid of Morley. Steeling herself for the coming onslaught, she murmured a prayer to her anscestors and pressed forward, squeezing past Mavic and chanting the Dawn of Understanding with a pronouncement of foreboding against the creature, unleashing a brilliant torrent of light that seemed to scream unspoken with the faces of the dying at the creature. She, of course, took some effort to try and not hit her fallen comrade. Reivik perhaps wouldn't be so lucky, but then again the dur are sturdy folk. Right?
OOC: Eshanna casts Searing Light aiming to one side of the fallen point-dude
Cursing Morley's weak, acid-beaten flesh for traitorous, and Eshanna for pressing forward besides, Mavic also decided that the time for restraint is past and tossed a pinch of lint into the air spitting into it while his free hand wove the towering cylinder of snow and howling furies into existance upon the baleful beast.
OOC: Mavic casts Ice Storm right on top of the thing, because friends don't toss two ray spells through your square in one round. Sewers? This was a bad idea.

The brilliant ray of violet light strikes true, momentarily illuminating the blob from the inside and turning it semi-transparent. The outlines of strange, inhuman figures can briefly be glimpsed suspended within its colossal form, a vile cross between a human and something aquatic, yet not of this world. The ooze shudders and just as quickly grows dark once more, a ragged hole remaining where the cleric’s spell had touched it (OOC: Searing light ray touch attack 18 + 9 – 4 (cover) – 4 (firing into melee) = 19, hit! Damage 8d8 = Ooze takes 40 hp of damage).

Mavic makes a caster level check 15 + 11 = 26, success! Damage 3d6 bludgeoning = Ooze takes 12 hp of damage; cold 2d6 = Ooze does not take cold damage)
Seemingly realizing that the aquatic ooze it is attacking is much more agile than it had imagined, the summoned elemental tries to make its attacks count. (OOC: Slam attack#1 3 + 10 + 1 (water mastery) – 3 (Power Attack) = 11, miss; attack#2 19 + 10 + 1 (water mastery) – 3 (Power Attack) = 27, hit! Damage 2d8 + 5 + 1 (water mastery) + 3 (Power Attack) = Ooze takes 24 hp of damage)
Morley lays on the ground, lost to the world. (OOC: Morley “attempts” to stabilize d% = 04, success! Morley becomes stable)
George having taken an arrow lets it fly. (OOC: Longbow attack#1 2 + 13 + 1 (PBS) – 4 (cover) – 4 (firing into melee)= 8, miss; attack#2 10 + 8 + 1 (PBS) – 4 (cover) – 4 (firing into melee) = 11, miss)
Still quivering like a custard from the deep impact of the cleric’s spell, the anthracite ooze’s pseudopod retreats from where it has been striking the water elemental. It re-emerges on the side facing the tunnel and like a black mamba strikes out past the startled dwarf, desperately trying to reach Eshanna. It misses her, striking the tiled wall of the sewer drain next to her head. A shower of pulverized tile and stone pelts erupts from the impact area, but it does little more than sting and momentarily cloud your view in the tunnel (OOC: Pseudopod slam attack hits AC 19, miss!). The hellish blob’s thousands of acid soaked tendrils continue flaying everyone unlucky enough to be near it (OOC: Reivik reflex save 13 + 6 = 19, failure! Reivik takes 4 hp of acid damage; Mavic reflex save 17 + 6 = 23, failure! Mavic takes 2 hp of acid damage; Morley automatic failure! Morley takes 1 hp of acid damage; Morley is now at -8 hp)
