Korez says, "Which of you will actually tell us where to find Jamila? We are not concerned with your squabble."
Before they move on, Jian Sheng examines the statues of the elemental lords in earnest and recalls that they play a key role in the binding magic of the Osirian wizards.
She checks that her notes on the hieroglyphics and the strange flowers are still with her, then notes down the chamber and its statues as well.
Venture Captain Norden would be interested in this...the flowing sand, that air chamber, those hieroglyphics, the strange flowers...now this. Too many to be coincidence.
When the other group of elementals appear, Jian Sheng feels a slight twinge of irritation, but maintains a calm demeanor "If I recall correctly, the Goanron Triumvirate strive to keep the lost city of Tumen buried, whereas the Ainsi believe that uncovering it can advance the desert to its true glory. It is my duty to uncover lost knowledge, and as such, my blade is with the Ainsi"

Korez says, "I can't see a difference between them to be perfectly honest. Each would be able to help us accomplish our task and whatever happens between their people is beyond that. I will go with whichever side the group agrees to."
Seems like 2 clear votes on Air(JS,Yliss) one clear vote on earth (Glorin), and one whichever (Korez), I'll give it another 12 more hours, but if no one else chimes in I'll move us along with the majority rule.
"I am inclined to lean with Glorin on this, but we did agree to work with the air beings first. Despite the dangerous nature of these tasks, we did agree. And I am one to be keepin' me promises."
As a group you decide, somewhat reluctantly, to follow the air elemental, and you start to make your way out of the area. However, as you turn away, the earth elemental makes it known that he is not pleased with your decision. She yells "If you don't join us, you don't join anyone else! Burn them!"
Combat starts to break out as the decide enemies start to lunge, but Iyasset is quick on his feet and flies by on of the fire elementals and knocks into him, mocking him from above.
The fire elementals spread themselves out, each taking one of the pathfinders. Being quick on their feet, their attacks are mostly successful with the exception of the elemental attacking Yliss who missed miserably.
Take 1d6 dmg at the start of your turn for 1d4 turns. A burning creature can attempt a new save as a full-round action. Dropping and rolling on the ground grants a +4 bonus on this save.
Combat Round 1 Conditions:
Iyasset (40ft)
Fire elementals R -5 B G
Xavian ; Yliss
Earth Elemental
Korez ; Jian Sheng -3 ; Inira ; Glorin -4
Elemental traits make them immune to sneak and critical hits, the earth elemental has DR
Xavian, a little quicker off his mark that the others, throws a dagger right at the big elemental lady. However, his dagger proves to be not that effective against it.
The Earth elemental moves forward and attacks Jian Sheng whom she has a clear sight to. 5 ft step and full round slams. And within a single round, Jian Sheng is knocked unconscious.

Korez reaches down to his fallen comrade, tapping Jian Sheng with his wand.
Combat doesn't go Yliss's way as he screams for some space, yet nobody seems to budge. Korez turns to help his fallen ally. Inira flurries a few arrows, however the sun must have caught her eyes as they mostly miss, with only one taking the bite.
Jian Sheng still needs to make that burn safe. And she can action now.
Combat Round 1 Conditions:
Iyasset (40ft)
Fire elementals R -5 B G -8
Xavian
Earth Elemental -1
Yliss ; Korez ; Jian Sheng -30 (prone/burn?) ; Inira ; Glorin -8 (Burn end round 4)
Jian Sheng was taken by surprise when the elementals turned violent and before she can move was knocked down by the heavy blows of the large elemental.
When she comes to, the first thing she sees is Korez standing over her with a wand "Thank you..." she whispers weakly rolls behind her companions, then start fumbling for own wand of healing as well..
withdraw as a full round action, moving while prone for 10 feet
Iyasset continues to cause a nuisance to the fire elementals. He speaks to you as well, "You are the prophets are you not? Show us your strength!" he then transforms himself into a large whirlwind and moves himself into the path of all the fire elementals before returning back to the security of the air. The fire elementals take a hit, but none are sucked into the whirlwind.
whirlwind:1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
reflex red, green, blue DC11:3d20 ⇒ (10, 19, 11) = 40 reflex red DC11:1d20 ⇒ 14
The fire elementals then advance their attacks against the pathfinders taking on Xavian, Yliss, and Inira.
Xavian, could you help clarify your damage rolls? Not too sure where the d8 comes from or why one modifier is +5 and the other is +3.
Xavian stabs the elemental and does a good amount of damage to it, likely it would fall it the next round. On the other hand, an angry Glorin swings his weapons with great strength knocking out and immediately sending one of the fire elementals into a vortex that sends him back into his home plane.
Yliss has enough space to enlarge now.

Korez takes a step back away from the elemental then taps Jian Sheng again. "Did you hear that? We gotta get you back in there to shut her up!"

Well it shouldn't be a d8, should be a d3. I must have been thinking of the d8 for sneak damage as a blade master I guess. The difference in the modifiers is because of the penalty for offhand in the duel-wielding.
Yliss' tongue flicks excitedly like lightning as his muscles bulge grotesquely and his nails elongate, then he tries to rend the creature in front of him, with uneven luck.
Actions:
Free Bloodrage
Full-Round Full Attack (blue, red)
Free 5-ft. step (toward red, if blue goes down)
Jian Sheng ignores both elementals and tiredly pulls herself to her feet. She pops a single berry into her mouth before extending her hand and sliding a wand from her wrist sheath. She activates it and a faint nimbus of energy surrounds her.
"Let them say what they will Korez. Actions speak louder than words. And our duty first and foremost is to the Pathfinder Society and each other, not squabbling tribes of elementals"
goodberry:1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
move action=stand up; swift action=retrieve wand of shield; std action=activate wand of shield.
Checking one box off my Ally of the Green boon. The boon doesn't specify what type of action counts toward using the goodberry so GM please discount it if necessary.
GM, by my count I took 32 (13+16+3) points of damage from the elementals, but was healed 10 (6+4) points by Korez. And now healing by 2 points from the goodberry I should be at -20 total. Have updated my current life total in the bar
@Xavian, I forget you get penalties to str dmg on offhand. Got to update my rogue!
@JS, eating a goodberry should be at least a move action mechanic wise. So you're at -22!
Korez helps Jian Sheng to get up as she prepares herself to unleash the power of the Prophets. Yliss is one step ahead as he grows himself to monstrous proportions. His first slash hurts the elemental but not enough to take it out. His second slash missed it completely.

Iyasset again turns himself into the form of a whirlwind. His strong breeze puts out the red elemental. But doesn't do enough to tfinish off the blue one. The blue elemental presses against Inira one more time.

Korez decides to try to help finish off the elemental.
Jian Sheng closes her eyes and takes a moment to focus upon her blade. When she opens, her eyes narrow upon the earth elemental and she looks upon her enemy for the first time properly. Recalling the earlier difficulty with the sand creatures, she searches her mind for any knowledge on earth elementals...
knowledge planes:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Unfortunately the Kn. DC for the elemental is 17. Everyone should know though by now. He has DR5/-, and AC20
The pathfinders all join forces in attempt to bring down the large creature. a few hits, and a few misses, but not good enough overall as the creature seems un-phased by your attacks.

Oh, I thought for some reason that he was normal to bludgeoning, no? If not Xavian would have continued with daggers as thats his best damage output method.
Xavian decides to go back to the daggers as the saps seem to have no effect!
Despite a successful first strike, Jian Sheng sees that the elemental is able to resist normal blows. Jian Sheng draws upon her inner strength to bolster her attacks further, manifesting her cold fury into lightning that arcs down her blade as she slashes at the earth elemental.
Swift action to activate arcane accuracy for +3 to attack. Spell combat as full round action. Casting defensively to avoid AoO. Not using power attack this round.
