Varrel I need to know how high are you flying. The roof is 30 feet above. Remember Varrel is shaken 4 RDs. I don't see where I rolled how long for Sweet. shaken:1d4 ⇒ 2 Sweet is shaken 2 rounds.
F Gnome (Lava) Cleric 6 (HP 48/48, Current AC 26/26/15, F +8, R +4, W +9 Init. +1, Perc. +9)
Shine, seeing here ally wounded twice, but also seeing a lot of damage being dealt from the Pick and from above decides to channel to heal her party this round. She will move K-50 to make sure she catches Riggs and then channel.
Let's say Varrel is 20ft above the ground. That means the light reaches from sweet, on Tue ground to ten feet below the ceiling. I'll wait for the creature to act before I post.
Norjan I need DC17 Reflex save for your pick for half damage to your pick.
corrosive blood damage:2d6 ⇒ (2, 5) = 7
Icabhod, I need a DC17 Reflex save for half damage to your battle axe.
corrosive blood damage:3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 6) = 14
RD2: summary
Riggs - hits for 18HP of damage, scorching ray.
Norjan - hits worm for 13HP of damage.
worm - bit Norjan 12HP, plus 5 acid damage.
Icabhod - hits for 16 HP of damage.
Shine - moves to K50 and sends healing channel, 8HP.

Reflex: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19 <-- Should be no damage after reduction for hardness.
Icabhod - I do not think your axe took any damage. Look at the
DM Baldwin - would a Heavy/Light Pick and a Battle Axe be wood hafted or iron? It would seem strange to have a wood handle on a weapon because of how easy it would break.
The Ultimate Equipment book has pictures and looks like the handle is wood for the pick. Actually mentions being inexpensive weapon for mounted combat. The battle axe actually states wooden haft may be protected and strengthened with metal bands called langets.
Have you figured out the hardness and HPs on your weapons?
Norjan and Icabhod:
This is my quick math on the weapons (double check it)
+1 light pick - 7 hardness (5 light hafted, 2 magic); 12HP (2HP plus 10 for magic)
+1 Heavy pick - 7 hardness (5 one handed hafted, 2 magic); 15HP (5HP plus 10 for magic)
+1 Battle Axe - 7 hardness (5 one handed hafted, 2 magic); 15HP (5HP plus 10 for magic)
Norjan if my math is correct, your heavy pick would have taken 2 HP of damage in RD2.
The bat has been biting from above actually...it would have been hard to hit it in the first place over your head. However this wasn't clear, so go head and take it. The creature would have had an AOO on Varrel since he flew through the threaten area but I didn't take it.

DM Baldwin:
I am confused. You did 7 damage, 1/2 if reflex save is made. I rolled a 19. While technically, I take no damage if 1/2 damage usually because of Evasion, in the case of my weapon, I will assume that evasion does not work - does not seem realistic to me although I suppose someone could make an argument related to it as RAW.
Thus, with the 7 damage - 1/2 would be 3 or 4, not sure about rounding. The hardness of my pick, even with a wooden handle, would be 7. Since I deduct Hardness sort of like DR for monsters, then the pick should not have taken any damage. Please correct me if I am missing anything.
We all need to make a list of regular spells we cast so that we are prepared in the future - Message, Spectral Hand, long duration buffs, etc.
Varrel was hurting. They needed to get out of here, BADLY. He looks around for an exit, hopefully a narrow tunnel where they could cut down this things flight.
Perception1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19 Also DM, I made a Knowledge:Arcana to ID the bat earlier, was it successful?.Also is the bat Hovering adjacent to me? Or is it above me, more than 5ft away? Where it is depends if I full attack or close+strike or just spell
Varrel I provided a lot of information about the bat after your knowledge roll. LINK
The Bat is next to you it's a large creature. Sweet the Bat is now out of range from your short sword. Remember spells require DC17 plus the spell level for a concentration check as it yips constantly.
There are two passages your can observe they are located on the map.
RD3 so far,
Sweet -
Creature - bites Varrel for 9 HP of damage.
Varrel -
Icabhod's attack hits hard and the worm hisses in pain. The acid blood does not effect the blunt weapon. Then when Shine hits it with the flame it drops to the ground.
Riggs -
Norjan - missed with his picks.
Worm - lightning at Icahbod.
Icabhod - hits the worm for 16 HP
Shine - 9 HP of damage, produce flame and drops it to the ground.
sorry missed your knowledge post.
Seeing a narrow corridor to the south, Varrel uses the WITHDRAW ACTION to fly to H5.
Get in here. If it follows he'll have to land and squeeze.

Turning to Shine - If you have any more healing magic, I could use some about now. Took a few shots that I should have avoided had I used better tactics.
And, now lets get into this pit and see rescue our companions.
As soon as Shine heals him some, Norjan turns and hurries over the the pit. Once there, he asks one of the others to hold the rope (or to tie it to a tree) and then jumps into the pit while holding securely to the rope so that he will not fall should the pit open again.
As you touch down at H4 to step into H5 (its too low to to fly in H5). You notice a transparent puddle, and dripping from the walls, that stretches into the area where you are heading. What are you doing?
HP 44/44, AC 13/12/11, F +6, R +6, W +7 Init. +6, Perc. +0
"Thanks for the healing, Shine!" Riggs calls out as he descends to the ground, upon seeing the worm destroyed. He watches the stronger of the group attempt to figure a way into the depression. He chugs the healing potion as he attempts to get back into the fight.
HP 44/44, AC 13/12/11, F +6, R +6, W +7 Init. +6, Perc. +0
"Sounds like a plan, Shine. Everyone watch out...". Riggs hovers just above the ground, then slightly sinks to touch the spot on the stairs where the original trap sprang, wanting it to open, while being ready to fly out of danger.
Concentration to cast vs Screech DC 201d20 + 6 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 5 = 31
Now in the relative safety of the low tunnel Varrel goes offensive. He casts FLAMING SPHERE below the bat and commands it to jump 30ft high to reach the bat. (If the bat is currently too high he will have the ball move to hit the bat as it dives to attack.
Bat makes a DC 17 reflex or 3d6 fire
Concentration to cast vs Screech DC 181d20 + 6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 5 = 12
Now in the safety of the low tunnel Varrel casts FLAMING SPHERE(Ref DC17 or 3d6 fire damage) to appear below the Bat and uses a move action to make it jump 30ft to burn.
(If the bat is too high, Varrel times the jump for when the Bat dives to attack. The spell lasts 6 rounds)
Sweet - Moves to H3.
Creature - bites Varrel for 9 HP of damage.
Varrel - withdrawals south into a small tunnel walks into an ooze.
Ooze - Hit Varrel for 7 HP, plus 1 Acid.
RD 3:
Meanwhile Varrel did not stop when he saw the translucent puddle and dripping and stepped into a gray ooze (automatic hit) slam:1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 plus acid:1d6 ⇒ 1 Grab attempt against CMD 17:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
The grab attempt on Varrel fails.
Varrel what are you doing? You went right into the ooze in RD3. Its an automatic hit. You made your concentration check in RD4 and was casting flaming sphere at the bat but you may want to edit what you are doing in round 4, since you walked into the ooze.
---
RD4
Sweet - moved back under the bat at G3, missed his attack.
Bat - attacked Sweet.
Varrel - Casts Flaming Sphere. (It looks like you double posted your actions with two different concentrations. I'll use your first one in the 4th RD.
Ooze-

RD4: The bat dives towards Sweet. It will use its bite while flapping its wings Fly check:1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25 It maintains it flight.
bite strike at Sweet:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 132d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 2) + 5 = 11
I think that hits your 21 AC.
I put the map up in my last post. The cave narrows and is reduced in height where Varrel is located. The large bat is in Hex F3/4,G3/4. It is 5 feet off the ground pecking down at you. How tall are you? You can reach it with your arms extending up.
Init +11, Perception +12 (+15 vs. traps), Disable Device: +19 (+22 vs traps), AC 21/16/16, CMD: 15, HP 58/58, Fort: 6, Ref: 12, Will: 5
Battle Below:
Have the map up. Just wanted to make sure of its coordinates.
Sweet steps under the bat to G3 and then extends her arm to stab the bat in the soft part of it's abdomen.
Riggs touching the stairs does not trigger any trap.
Norjan as you leap into the middle of the pit the trap door springs and you drop down. Icahbod is able to wrap the rope around a small bush and he can help brace it. The bush is small would not hold much weight unless it is held/braced.
Norjan:
Norjan is able to get to the bottom of the pit without injury but you see many spikes at the bottom, some bloody. I need you to make WILL SAVE as you hear shrieking
The rope holds the trapdoor open - at least for now - and everyone hears this ear piercing shriek. The shrieking is mixed with constant yips. I need everyone on the surface to make WILL SAVE.
I need to stop to see what Varrel is doing. I think he is going to move at least 5ft to H4. He is in a terrible position right now.
Norjan Only:
Initiative:
Norjan:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
There is a lot going on right now. I need the Will Save before anything else, I will add you into the battle in RD5. We still have a few things to wrap up in RD4
RD4. Varrel completed his casting as described but also took a 5ft step Out of the square with the Ooze. This means that the Flaming Sphere exists but did not jump.
RD5. Varrel flies up 5ft (5ft step), out of the oozes reach and uses a Move action to make the Flaming Sphere burn the bat.
3d6 fire damage, REFLEX DC17
He calls a Warning, Gray Ooze Beneath me! Be careful!
His sword DUR DAGNIR calls to the Magai's mind
You are badly wounded, get to the cleric before you fall! If we don't kill these beasts we may ALL fall! They can heal me later!
