half of 7 is 3.5 so 3. I lose 1 str per 2 ability damage. So -1 str only lowers damage per arrow by 1. So 5 per arrow instead of 6. Which is what I put into my rolls. If any of that does not look correct let me know.I will try to also include my round counter.

Surprise Round: Improved Invisible on self
Round 1: Move towards Savage and cast Protection from Evil on Savage
Round 2: Cast Spell Resistance on Savage
Round 3: See Invisible no longer necessary, therefore changing action.
Pad casts Fly (12 min) on Savage and tells him,"Ask him politely to give us the bracelet. If he refuses, then teach him to share."
too messy to tidy up, and she is not really a challenge ;)
Yon Loi’s becomes less festive with each passing night, perhaps because each day sees more contestants eliminated from the contest, or because of the uncharacteristically dismal weather. In any case, you find the noodle house largely vacant when you arrive to meet Marthysan. When 9
p.m. rolls around, the paladin is nowhere to be found, and the door opens to a false alarm as a stumbling-drunk local wanders in for a late meal.
The disturbance are used by some thugs, to jump on you.

Pad will cast Haste on the party and move 15' south adjacent to Savage, his favorite Barbiguard. "No need to get pushy. There is plenty of room here to share a drink. There is also plenty of room at the cementary if you dare to fight us."
Isis, sadly tethered to gravity like a commoner, invokes her ability to fly and soars up 15' into the air, out of the reach of the ruffians who would ruin dinner.

I assumed they were flat footed and didn't have combat reflexes feat. And I was too lazy to announce auto success on defensive casting.. Concentration:1d20 + 22 ⇒ (6) + 22 = 28. DC 22 (10 + damage + spell level)
I goofed a little bit. I could not detect evil as it is a move action which you stated I used to draw my bow. Also I still have -1 str so subtract 2 damage from thug 3, unless he is human then it'll balance out.

Round 2
"Gerri, are you feeling okay? Fish soup on a weak stomach will keep you in the outhouse for hours." Pad delays after Savage and moves within 20' of his foe and casts Fire Snake underneath the 3 thugs and shapes it to avoid his companions and furniture. Defensive casting just in case.
Reflex DC 27 halves, Concentration:15d6 + 15 ⇒ (1, 6, 5, 3, 2, 2, 1, 3, 4, 2, 5, 5, 4, 6, 2) + 15 = 661d20 + 22 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 22 + 3 = 29
---------------------------------------------------------------------
On Going Effects:Mage Armor, Haste
Gerri tosses some bombs, and together with Pad's attack, you have no problem in taking them out.
Marthysan the Righteous arrives at the noodle house only minutes after the conclusion of the fight. He explains the reason for his tardiness and apologizes for the attack.
”My apologies for being late, but the boat that I planned to take from the Grand Pavilion back to New Harbor left without me and I had to travel back on foot. These are agents of the Golden League and I must report this to the Emissary. This just confirms my suspicions. Be vigilant and cautious,” he warns you and quickly departs to catch a ferry across the bay.
Day Four
By the start of the fourth day of the competition, only eight teams of contestants remain. With fewer exhibitions to entertain the crowds throughout the day the Emissary tries to keep you as busy as possible.
Overnight, Abadaran clerics and wizards in the Emissary’s service employed spells such as stone shape, transmute rock to mud, and create water to fill the fight stage with a pool of watery mud, effectively transforming the ring into a giant swamp. Several islands of dark stone rise 6 inches out of the 4-foot-deep morass. Treat the mud as a deep bog for purposes of movement and concealment.
Gerri will make an extract of Lesser Restoration for Ward before going to bed and let him use his Pearl of Power (1st) also if needed. Then he will heal himself with various Curing Extracts.
Extract Lesser Restoration:1d4 ⇒ 4
Pearl of Power, Ward's Lesser Restoration:1d4 ⇒ 4
4' deep mud?!?! Dang.
New day, so if you want to use any extracts let me know. I have 3 Alchemical Allocations available.
If we have a minute to prepare again for this fight, Gerri will create a extract of Monstrous Physique I and drink it, turning in to a Charda.
After the rude interruption of last night's dinner, Isis is no mood to wade about in the mud (like a common mortal) and casts both Overland Flight and Mage Armor in the morning. An extended Heroism will follow shortly thereafter.
"Don't you worry, Bast. I'll keep you out of the mud," Isis says Bast while one is doing their hair for the day while the other is licking herself in unusual places. "Contests in the mud. How very unclean, huh Bastie?"
Despite her displeasure, Isis is at the arena well ahead of the onset, examining the preparations and looking for surprises.
"Savage, dearie, do try to keep from splashing mud about when you're on one of your rampages. I promised to keep Bast clean," Isis says to Savage while petting over her shoulder and into the nook of her cowl.

"But Princess Isis, a mud bath can perform wonders on your skin. Will you join me after our contest for a relaxing celebratory spa day? As much as I love burning things, it can be scarring by causing burns, severe dry skin and early wrinkles. We should take precautionary measures in the dangerous vocation we have selected."
Pad will also fly 30' above the bog. Beforehand, he will cast Spectral Hand and hold the charge of Force Punch (with intensified metamagic feat) before the competition along with the buffs below.

"Master Pad, if you have any extra to recommend, Boots and I would appreciate being more 'heroic' in these fights. " Dora smiles at the gnome as she climbs into her saddle on the wolf.
And with this and a big gong the combat is opened. Everyone except Dora goes first, and already you hear that the vrowd is wondering, if it will take longer than a round, and bets are placed, one betting Hok won't be able to act, others, yes he will. But, you have no idea how the ratio is, and which bet received more.
Ward will jump out to the first rock and draw his bow. He readies two arrows in his bow and aims at his opponent. He does not fire at this time, but instead he waits until Hok enters the combat area.
Readied action to shoot Hok with many shot and deadly aim.

Move action to fly up 30 ft. Standard action to ready vs movement into arena. During movement, Intensified Force Punch by Spectral Hand. Swift action performance check.
Pad tries to touch the mage, who seems to be blinking in and out of existence. 1d100 ⇒ 21 51-100 is a hit.
Isis:
Isis knows that Hok operates a lucrative business procuring blood sample speicmen, he is a witch and bloat mage
Then he casts trying to overcome Pad's SR 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32
and flies up
if successful, Pad needs to make a WILL save with -4
DC22 fail:
Target creature's Intelligence and Charisma scores each drop to 1. The affected creature is unable to use Intelligence- or Charisma-based skills, cast spells, understand language, or communicate coherently. Still, it knows who its friends are and can follow them and even protect them. The subject remains in this state until a heal, limited wish, miracle, or wish spell is used to cancel the effect of the feeblemind. A creature that can cast arcane spells, such as a sorcerer or a wizard, takes a –4 penalty on its saving throw
Ward moves south to put some distance between him and Gerri. Looking to the heavens he call out, "Erastil grant me your divine power to guide my arrows." Immediately his bow begins to glow brightly.
