Engelbert continues singing his rousing song (free action) that inspires his allies with rage!
Inspired Rage:
Inspired Rage (Su) At 1st level, affected allies gain a +2 morale bonus to Strength and Constitution and a +1 morale bonus on Will saving throws, but also take a –1 penalty to AC. While under the effects of inspired rage, allies other than the skald cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration. At 4th level and every 4 levels thereafter, the song’s bonuses on Will saves increase by 1; the penalty to AC doesn’t change. At 8th and 16th levels, the song’s bonuses to Strength and Constitution increase by 2. (Unlike the barbarian’s rage ability, those affected are not fatigued after the song ends.) If an ally has her own rage class ability (such as barbarian’s rage, bloodrager’s bloodrage, or skald’s inspired rage), she may use the Strength, Constitution, and Will saving throw bonuses, as well as AC penalties, based on her own ability and level instead of those from the skald (still suffering no fatigue afterward). However, inspired rage does not allow the ally to activate abilities dependent on other rage class abilities, such as rage powers, blood casting, or bloodrager bloodlines; the ally must activate her own rage class ability in order to use these features.
Things got slow for a bit there; did the last couple attacks have Inspired Rage in mind? You can choose to accept it or not on your turn.
Engelbert then takes a slash at the zombie with his bardiche but doesn't manage to connect.

You could have been using my Inspired Rage to rage without spending your own rounds of Rage, Jeskit. If you weren't aware, maybe the GM will let you pretend you didn't use your own?

I was hoping it wouldn't go as long, but also your rage drops my AC but mine raises it. Thanks though. I should be fine going forward.

I meant you can use your own rage normally. Like, everything you'd get from your own rage. It's just like you're raging, but you don't use the rounds. Does that make sense I hope?

oh wow that’s pretty great if I can burn your rounds for my own. Did not realize.

"Ooh, a fancy magical sword and necklace! I wonder what they do?
Engelbert casts Detect Magic at the magic items, then tries to identify their properties.
spellcraft, sword:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 spellcraft, amulet:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Not quite the items I was hoping to find, but we should follow this secret passage to see what is beyond. Jeskit ducks in the secret passage to see what he sees.
As Jeskit ducks into the passage, he hears the faint sounds of combat ringing down as if from very far away, and a very familiar voice joining in...
As the legendary Gregaro Voth successfully battled the wild beasts in the deepest reaches of the Mwangi Expanse, so shall I defeat you, foul servant of Lamashtu!
It sounds like Janira is alive! But in danger! The team will have to hurry!
Please provide a marching order... the tunnel is only big enough for single file! Kyra will be in the back. ;)
The route to the surface leads through a maze of tight passages that include steep ascents and short climbs as they wind from west to east. Up ahead in the tunnels comes the foul smell and undulating quivering of some sort of ooze...

Jeskit gasps as he pulls away from being covered in slime. Just to catch his breath. He swings his sectioned staff again hoping to fell the slime before he moves back. Tetch offers his Guidance once more.
The slime mold is bashed and quivers before falling into a pile of goo.
PATHFINDERS WIN! VICTORY!
Kyra rushes up to Jeskit.
Your hurt! Hold still!
She touches him with her holy symbol.
Cure light wounds:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
heal:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
As his wounds heal, she looks at where some of the slime got in his scales and winces.
Oh dear... Fungal rot.. that'll be nasty if you don't take care of it... you'll need plenty of bed rest after this, or that could be bad.
The sound of fighting grows and Kyra looks up.
No time to waste! We have to help Janira!
The light of the surface world above provides a welcome reprieve from the blue and green fungus of the caverns below, and light illuminates a stream whose water is hastened by runoff from a recent storm further up the mountains. A ledge to the west rises up to the nearby forest canopy.
In the clearing, panting, exhausted, and bloody and bruised, is Janira. In front of her, wielding it's huge axe, is the Minotaur. While it clearly has a few cuts and bruises itself, there is no question who is going to win this if it continues much longer...
“You vile beast! I know not what drives your black heart, but I shall not fail in my duty. I shall see you driven from this forest, back to the hills from whence you came!”

Engelbert starts singing a rousing song (standard action) that inspires his allies with rage!
Inspired Rage:
Inspired Rage (Su) At 1st level, affected allies gain a +2 morale bonus to Strength and Constitution and a +1 morale bonus on Will saving throws, but also take a –1 penalty to AC. While under the effects of inspired rage, allies other than the skald cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration. At 4th level and every 4 levels thereafter, the song’s bonuses on Will saves increase by 1; the penalty to AC doesn’t change. At 8th and 16th levels, the song’s bonuses to Strength and Constitution increase by 2. (Unlike the barbarian’s rage ability, those affected are not fatigued after the song ends.) If an ally has her own rage class ability (such as barbarian’s rage, bloodrager’s bloodrage, or skald’s inspired rage), she may use the Strength, Constitution, and Will saving throw bonuses, as well as AC penalties, based on her own ability and level instead of those from the skald (still suffering no fatigue afterward). However, inspired rage does not allow the ally to activate abilities dependent on other rage class abilities, such as rage powers, blood casting, or bloodrager bloodlines; the ally must activate her own rage class ability in order to use these features.
Everyone remember on your turn to decide whether or not you accept the rage! @Jeskit if you accept it you can keep your own rage without expending a round (except you just can't use your own rage powers)
Then starts making his way (move) towards the half-dead halfling Janira.
Janira hears the pathfinders and takes the time to take a step back and run for it. Kyra splashes through the river to catch the smaller woman as she runs. She starts preparing to cast spells of healing on the Halfling, though closing the distance took all the time she had. (Double move for Kyra, 5 foot and move for Janira)
The minotaur is still weary, but Jeskit poses a clear and present danger. He turns on the Nagaji and swings his axe...
Axe:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
Axe:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Horns:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
However, the gods smile upon Jeskit this day, and he is able to leap over the slow swings and stabs of the minotaur who howls in frustration at his inability to pin him down.

Engelbert continues his song and runs toward the minotaur. (run action so x4 movement. I assume his bardiche was still out because we just came from a fight but if not he'll draw it while running)
