Between Azrael and Balthazar they drop blue hued demon the other one remains on the far side of the exit from the tower and see's one of its companions die in an explosion of firey blood.
SteelGate moves to attempt to threaten the green hued demon. He then swipes at it. I have no idea how high these things are actually flying. If they are within 15 ft of the ground I can hit them. Attack:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 261d8 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23
Tink sends Blue to Lynn again, and she starts to float slightly once more. The dispell would have stripped the fly earlier I believe. Using a mythic point to cast again.

Round 4
Lynn, Don, Balthazar
Demons (Y)
Azrael, SteelGate, Tink <---
The Demon sees everyone moving towards it and Teleports away. From a top the tower the group can see The Last of your Armies making their way across the Bridge and setting up.
Irabeth is leading from the front, Aniva and Aron have slinked off to the sides to watch for anyone coming from the side. As the Armies Line up to do the final battle to clear out the inner court yard a Loud Cry can be heard, From the tower of the Citadel a Large Flying creature can be seen.
K. Arcana DC 20:
This is a Chimera but unlike one anyone has heard of.
Know Arcana:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31 "That thing is some sort of chimera... but something is off about it."
He pauses for a moment before moving over to Azrael and Don, "Can you pull that thing out of the air?" he asks the two before casting a spell. Haste on Azrael, Don, and Tink, and holding the remaining 3 charges."We need to make sure it doesn't get to the army. It can breath elemental matter and decimate large swathes of our force."
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.

It sounds like we cannot fire at the creature until it closes some? Assuming he cannot fire at the enemy...
Unsure of what type of breath weapon the creature might have Azrael takes cover in the stairway.

I read it.
You generally need only make a Fly check when you are attempting a complex maneuver. Without making a check, a flying creature can remain flying at the end of its turn so long as it moves a distance greater than half its speed.
Also: Move less than half speed and remain flying DC10
I think you got it the wrong way. You don't roll for > half speed, you roll for half speed. And this half speed stuff only applies when you're flying by using wings. As the fly spell says I can rise up at half speed. Which is not possible at all with the fly skill. In my reading, the fly spell is better and includes what levitate gives you.
But besides that - I'm going in a straight line at full speed towards an enemy that comes towards me. I don't see where that qualifies as complex maneuver by anything listed in the fly skill.
Lynn DC 19 Fort save please or Staggered for Staggered:1d4 ⇒ 4
Please read:
Coordinated Bites (Ex) If Chimera attacks a single target with both of its bite attacks, it treats that target as if the target were flat-footed against those attacks.
Crushing Jaws (Ex) If Chimera hits a creature with both
bite attacks, it can expend one use of mythic power to
savage its prey as an immediate action. This immediately
deals 2d6+1d8+7 points of damage as it chews on the victim.
In addition, the victim must succeed at a DC 19 Fortitude
save to resist being staggered by the pain for 1d4 rounds.
The save DC is Strength-based
Staggered: A staggered creature may take a single move action or standard action each round (but not both, nor can he take full-round actions). A staggered creature can still take free, swift and immediate actions. A creature with nonlethal damage exactly equal to its current hit points gains the staggered condition.

I am waiting to see Lynn's reaction to the attack, and her save, before attacking. I see the creature on the side of the map but Lynn is no where near it, so trying to figure out where it and Lynn are. Once Azrael figures this is not a run of the mill creature he will smite it.

Lynn, on the map you look to be on or even in the tower while the creature looks to be a good 100 feet away from you. I sorta need that resolved to know if I have a clean shot at it or not. Is it in melee with you where you are, you with it where it is, or are the two of you somewhere in between?

I have stabbing range of 10ft and my stabbng is always melee. Same is true for the biting of the chimera. Feel free to move Lynn on the map accordingly.

Azrael 5' adjusts for a clearer shot, declares a Smite on the creature as a swift action and fires 4 arrows. The smite should bypass all DR. If this creature counts as an evil dragon then the first hit does an additional 6

"I think you might want to call on your god to help you kill this thing."Smite and litany of righteousness may be good ideas here.
Note that litany of righteousness is a second level spell and not availably to Azrael until he hits level 7. It is quite a nice spell though. :)
from mythic adventures:
DR/Epic: A type of damage reduction, DR/epic can be
overcome only by a weapon with an enhancement bonus of +6
or greater (Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 299). Weapons with special
abilities also count as epic for the purposes of overcoming
damage reduction if the total bonus value of all of their
abilities (including the enhancement bonus) is +6 or greater.
so a +4 Holy weapon would be considered epic.
Your Dmg is 8/12/16/24 = 60 total without the smite dmg because it doesn't by pass the DR
It doesn't count as a Dragon no
Azrael calls upon his divine blessings to assist him in smiting the Chimera. The blessing doesn't appear to help Azrael though as his shots don't pack a divine punch to penetrate the Chimera's thick hide. Wheeling around Lynn the Hydra moves to assault the archers on the roof 50' of flight double moves to get 100' closer. Taking in a deep breath the Dragon head breathes Ice.

Reflex Save:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 175 points of cold resistance so will take 25 from the breath. Down to 17 HP. Waiting to post attacks to know more about my smite. Am I getting AC bonus? To Hit bonus? Damage Bonus?

Dual initiative is gross
I am still unsure about a few things here and am trying to make good decisions about what will likely be Azrael's last turn. No way he will survive even a single round of full attacks, and certainly not two rounds since the thing has duel initiative. Here are my questions: 1) How many of my 4 arrows hit? And Duel init does not necessarily mean the creature goes twice in a row. 2) What is the actual initiative order? 3) Other than not bypassing DR is my smite working in all other aspects? I will l most likely step back and fire BUT I worry about its reach.

"Dammit, it's a white dragon. Most of my spells won't affect it, guess i'll just have to reprimand it." Balthazar says before moving and yelling in a silent scream that only the chimera can hear.
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target one creature
Duration instantaneous; see text
Saving Throw Fortitude partial (see text); Spell Resistance yes
DESCRIPTION
You unleash a powerful scream, inaudible to all but a single target. The target is dazed for 1 round and takes 1d6 points of sonic damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d6). A successful save negates the daze effect and halves the damage.
The Chimera goes first and last, basically it does go twice in a row. The AC is 24 to hit so 3/4 of your arrows are hitting, the Order is a posted and you had in your reply
Fort save:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23HP -101
Lynn can "run" this round to catch up to the speed of the Chimera. Balthazr's Scream rocks the Chimera but not to it's full effect.

Frozen from the breath and torn from the bite Azrael lays his hand on the bite wound as he steps back and full attacks. Erastil and Iomedae be with me. he says as he faces the beast.

before would be useless, as the first shot would reveal him again. So, yes, after the shots. And as that puts me on the menu of the beast I like to point out that I'm only closing in on the beast, when I can actually stab it. Running after it, I will stay out of full attack range ;)

Thanks for that. If attacking from safe waiting distance, then its move stab, which makes it viable for vital strike. That reduces the Attack but adds damage. Charge Stab: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 12 + 2 = 28 26;1d10 + 16 ⇒ (2) + 16 = 18 Additional VS Damage:1d10 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26 For summed up: 44 Dmg if the 26 hits.
Distant Barrage
As a swift action, you can expend one use of mythic power to make a ranged attack at your highest attack bonus. This is in addition to any other attacks you make this round. When making this attack, ignore the target’s cover and concealment other than total cover, and add your tier to the attack roll. Damage from this attack bypasses all damage reduction.
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.

So, does Don's mythic power that states "bypasses all damage reduction" bypass the Chimera's DR?
