Know Religion: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28
"Thats a Berbalang." he says and then proceeds to mention its key abilities.

Azrael 5' steps int the room and, thanks to the detailed information from Tink fires, flaming silver arrows at the creature.

Radiance : 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 14 + 1 - 2 = 181d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 + 4 + (3) = 18

Radiance : 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 14 + 1 - 2 = 211d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 + 4 + (5) = 18

Radiance : 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 1 - 2 = 201d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 1 + 4 + (3) = 19

Azrael fires off 3 arrows, all of which miss their mark buy just a relatively small amount.

The Berbalang smirks at Lynn, then takes off flying to Azrael biting at him. His silvered arrows will cause the most pain.

Bite: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 241d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
DC 20 fort or paralyzed for: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Also remember that Lynn won't grow till the start of her next turn because it is a full round cast

Stab AoO: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Lynn stabs at the creature but misses again.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 2 = 22

The Paladin is bitten but his resistance to such things along with the spell that bolsters his resistance to undead prevent him from being paralyzed. He 5' steps back into the other room and fires four silver flaming arrows. As he does so he Orders Lynn to attack again. Decisive Strike - Swift to have an ally within 30'make an extra attack

Radiance : 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 = 181d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 + 4 + (2) = 17

Radiance : 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 = 141d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 + 4 + (2) = 17

Radiance : 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 14 + 1 - 2 = 191d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 + 4 + (4) = 19

Radiance : 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 1 - 2 - 2 = 221d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 + 4 + (6) = 21

It is crazy that AC 24 is stumping you guys

With great agility the Berbalang dodges all of Azrael's arrows even at point blank range, from the other side of the crypt something sounds like it sloshes around as what looks like a giant cube slowly moves forward towards Lynn.

The Giant pudding slams at Lynn

Slam with acid: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 101d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 1 + (2) = 8

Lynn casts bulls strength as a swift action on herself and stabs the Berbalong.
Stab+PA+VS+FF: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 282d10 + 32 + 1d6 ⇒ (1, 3) + 32 + (1) = 37

Don, are you taking the decisive strike?

Stamina 4/8

Don swings again
Hammer,PA,Stamina: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 172d6 + 12 ⇒ (5, 4) + 12 = 21
Hammer,PA,Stamina: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 122d6 + 12 ⇒ (3, 4) + 12 = 19

Decisive Strike: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 271d10 + 16 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 16 + (5) = 24

Edit: (facepalm) Azrael explicitly asked Lynn to stab again.

Yea, only works for one person.

Lynn is out of reach for the strike since Tink is in front of her and there is an empty square, she won't enlarge till her turn which the decisive strike is before

Lynn strikes true and the power of her God Helps her to by pass the creatures dense skin.

Iko<---

Iko runs up towards the demon and twisting his body, stretches his leg outward and delivers a spin kick to the creature, hoping to give his friends an advantage.

Spin Kick vs Flat footed AC: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

why vs Flat footed?

Iko's attack misses as the creature dodges his whirling foot.

Mythic 4/5
Hammer,Stamina,Mythic,PA: 1d20 + 11 + 1d6 ⇒ (9) + 11 + (1) = 212d6 + 12 ⇒ (4, 1) + 12 = 17

Hammer,Stamina,Mythic,PA: 1d20 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 6 + (6) = 132d6 + 12 ⇒ (4, 2) + 12 = 18

Azrael, frustrated that he cannot hit this enemy chooses to use a precious smite to try to bring the creature down. He fires 4 silver flaming arrows at the thing. His Deadeye Bowman trait lets him shoot through Iko without penalty.

Radiance: 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 = 161d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + (1) = 19

Radiance: 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 = 281d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + (4) = 25

Radiance: 1d20 + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 14 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 = 351d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + (6) = 29

Radiance: 1d20 + 19 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 19 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 4 = 311d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 + 4 + 6 + (5) = 26

If the creature is still up he will now use that mythic point to give Lynn an extra attack.

Azrael's first arrow misses by a large margin, after adjusting his aim quickly Azrael fires 3 more arrows that hit their mark and leave some telling blows, the creature smirks more. Don tries to dodge Arrows that Azrael is unleashing as he is swinging his great hammer around but fails to connect with the evasive demon.

Iko

As the group watches some of the rotten undead skin of the creature knits itself back together, the putrid smirk gets wider.

"I will taste your blood today holy one." The creature slides around Iko and bites and Claws at Azrael.

Bite: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 231d6 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
claw: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 161d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
claw: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 301d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

3 fort checks DC 20 or paralyzed for
Paralyzed: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

A few things: 1) I am hoping that the fire damage from the flaming arrows will turn off for a round whatever fast healing or generation is going on. 2) With Smite activated Azrael's AC increases by his Chr. Modifier so only one attack hits, but that seems to be enough when I roll a three on the save. 3) On Azrael's turn Lynn gets a free attack that happens BEFORE Azrael gets paralyzed. So its possible that Lynn can take the thing down before Azrael is hit???

Fort Save with Serge: 1d20 + 12 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 12 + (2) = 17

The paladin stops moving.

It can yes, the Fast Healing is tied to the Unhallow effect that you feel and is creating the darkness in the area so unless you wanted to spend 10 minutes casting hallow and basically giving it free attacks you cannot turn it off. Lynn would have to do 70 damage to kill it, the book says give it full HP and Fast Healing

Tink steps away to let Lynn grow.

Stab: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15
Lynn stabs at the undead but misses.

Lynn gets her round now

Step it up guys. Azrael is out of the fight and can be coupe de graced. What is
SteelGate doing?

Botting Steelgate
Steelgate comes over to distract the undead from Tink.
Slam: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 2 = 331d10 + 16 ⇒ (4) + 16 = 20
Confirm: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 11 + 2 = 301d10 + 16 ⇒ (5) + 16 = 21

It would be Lynn's turn now, Lynn missed with her Special attack from Azrael

SteelGates slams into the undead creature, pulling off parts of decaying and molding skin. The wiggling and jiggling cube continues it's crash course for anyone in its way.

DC 14 Reflex save Lynn or you are engulfed, You would have to end up on the other side of the Cub where there is free space/Or you can get an AoO but no saving throw

Engulf: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 31d6 ⇒ 6

Azrel, Don
SteelGate, Flying thing (-107)

Iko <---

Lynn stabs at the Undead, to end this threat, and to get Azael out of danger.
Stab: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 294d8 + 36 + 1d6 ⇒ (8, 7, 7, 6) + 36 + (5) = 69

As she notices that the cube tries to engulf her she stabs at that too.
AoO Cube: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 254d8 + 36 + 1d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 3, 3) + 36 + (2) = 50

The +1d6 is good damage? The Cube wouldn't take it since it is neutral?

It's a pity you noticed. I was hoping to get it dead in one go ;) It's fort saves then I guess.
Fort Save vs. Paralyze+Surge: 1d20 + 8 + 1d6 ⇒ (7) + 8 + (5) = 20

Edit: Just checked - Shelyn's Alignment is NG. So I guess trying to get that past your observant eyes at least doesn't endanger my alignment :D

Iko uses his cold Iron temple sword and speeds up his attacks on the creature.

Flurry: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Flurry: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Flurry: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

To very little effect.

Just so you know I made it so the Cube was a giant "Paralysis (3d6 rounds, DC 22) (Ex) Touch paralyzes foe for 3d6 rds (Fort neg)."

Lynn Feels her body seize up while inside of the cube as she begins to be dissolved by acid and drown

Paralyzed for: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 1) = 6

Two paralyzed!

Don attacks the demon again
Hammer,Stamina,PA,Punishing Blow, Surge: 1d20 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (15) + 10 + (1) = 262d6 + 12 ⇒ (1, 4) + 12 = 17
Hammer,Stamina,PA,Punishing Blow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 192d6 + 12 ⇒ (2, 4) + 12 = 18
Punishing Blow
Any opponent you hit with a melee or ranged attack loses the benefits of regeneration and fast healing for 1 round. In addition, if you score a critical hit against the target, it loses the benefit of its damage reduction for 1 round. A creature whose regeneration can’t be suppressed or ignored (such as the tarrasque) is immune to this effect.

Lynn is now on display as angry warpriest of Shelyn in jelly. Caught in the stabbing pose.

You jelly?

Lynn's final act while moving was to destroy the creature. The Cube moves forward to engulf Lynn and Paralyze her, Don's two hammer blows rain down on the Blob holding Lynn.

2 DC 22 fort saves for your wpn or it takes

Acid dmg: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Acid dmg: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Fort: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
This bypass hardiness? I so my hammer is broken 8/10 hp

Steelgate moves over and wails away at the cube.
Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 311d8 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19
Confirm Again: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 201d8 + 16 ⇒ (8) + 16 = 24

I cannot see why it wouldn't bypass the hardness since you are making the conscious choice to strike at something like this. Not like the swarm which did it just because. I need to roll for Lynn's gear as well.

Lynns Gear: 1d6 ⇒ 1

SteelGate bursts the giant jelly monster

While the giant gelatinous cube loses it's consistency and slowly becomes slimy goo that fills the room ankle deep Lynn still stands there in stabbing pose while gravity frees her of this oxygen starved environment.

Blast it. We are sorely under equipped for these creatures. We need to get blessed items

At the table I'd say we need to burn the dice.
Lynn still stands there and is glad that sharpies are not invented in Golarion.

"We need to strengthen ourselves against abilities that can take us out of the fight at a moments notice." Tink chimes in.

Don draws on Lynn's face....WITH BLOOOOOOOODDDDDD!!!!!!!11111

Lynn and Azrael finally come out of their paralysis, Lynn quickly gets out of the pool that once was a gelatinous cube. The Crypt remains tainted and dark, Lynn's spell eventually fades and seeing becomes more difficult for those who don't have Dark vision.

My Daylight spell last an hour (10min/level).
Lynn casts create water above herself until all of that itchy corrosive cube jelly is washed off of her on the out- and inside of her armor.

Once she only feels wet but otherwise clean, she turns to the others, who had a minute already to assess the situation. "You got an idea what is wrong with this building?" She cast detect magic and looks about. Especially for a fixture, like an altar, that could have been used for a desecration ritual.

Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28

Perhaps we can ask our Sheylinite cleric back with the army to pray to cleanse this place.

"My guess would be that someone devoted this thing to an evil deity. If I'm right about that I can do that cleansing myself." Lynn complains. Then her thoughts move on to introspection if she may be failing to represent Shelyn properly. She is a priest of her goddess after all, but not everyone seems to notice that.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Just waiting for Raltus to tell if my suspicion is correct before starting the ritual

"I am better equipped against demons than oozes and swarms. Restocking supplies against these types of things would be a help. But we may have to save that for later." Iko says with a shrug.

Not having a clue anyway, Lynn sits down and prepares for the ritual to consecrate the place. Until she realizes, that this takes a vial of holy water and silver dust. "This sucks.Maybe we should tear that hole down istead." Lynn lets out in frustration.

Don nods. Smash and bash!
