I'm good where I'm at, as I am about to hop over.
fine with me
Malugor dimensional hops to the location where female prisoner is staked to a wooden “X” cross. The female is naked and unconscious. Now that he is close, Malugor can tell that the female’s body has dozens of paper thin cuts all across her body, expertly inflicted as a means of torture. There is an impressive level of skill with which the cuts were inflicted. Her face is also very bruised and her abdomen shows signs of broken ribs and internal damage. Mal also sees that some kind of black ichor has been rubbed into the wounds as well. The prisoner is barely breathing and as Malugor carefully kneels down to get a look at the prisoner's face, he instantly recognizes her as Sheyla, although she is currently unconscious.
Once the prisoner is revealed to be Sheyla, Elise will move up to administer help..
Rav comes closer and tries to position himself close enough to cast a wall of force on the cave entrance if needed, angling off to the side so he has a direct line of sight on the cave entrance. 60ft from the cave if possible but most importantly he will stay far enough away to keep from being caught in an AOE 45ft rad or less that affects any of the group. Distance from the group being more important as he can always lob a long distance dazing fireball if he is out of WoF range
Mal... See if she still radiates good as a paladin or if her aura has been corrupted.. Be careful
As Mal examines Sheyla and the rest of the party beings its careful approach toward him, suddenly a snake-bodied fiend with a six-armed woman’s torso, each arm bearing a longsword, pointed ears, and glittering, otherworldly eyes pops into existence next to Mal! The marilith speaks, "S-s-seems your pesssky friendssss who have been causing trouble in the prison are mounting a rescue attempt for you S-s-Sheyla....how deliciousssss!"
Right behind Elise appears a towering creature with four arms. The monster’s eyes shine with a mix of intelligence and cruelty.
Round 1: Marilith
The powerful snake-bodied fiend unleashes her weapon attacks on the flat-footed inquisitor, evidencing great skill as she catches the unaware inquisitor with several expertly placed slashes of her swords, each one inflicting unholy damage on him! One blow is so vicious and expertly placed that it opens a gushing wound down the inquisitor's back! After the flurry of hits, Mal is left barely standing and conscious before the towering fiend! As he lifts his bow to attack or perphaps teleport away, the wound on his back is too much and he collapses to the floor at the fiend's feet! The look of gratification on the marilith's face is readily apparent!
Not liking the look of the big demon that suddenly appeared next to him ...Rav Dimension Slides (move action, No AOO) up to 140 ft away using 1 arcane pt
Rav will reappear as far away as possible from both demons max 140ft while still maintaining LOS
Once at a comfortable distance Rav launches 2 Fireballs
The first an Intensified Quickened(free mm) at the Glabrezu aimed to affect only it ..hoping to soften it up for Sig's full attack
SR=14+6(elf,spell penetration
The second one an Intensified, Dazing (free mm from spell perfection) at the Marilith...hoping to Daze it and temporarily neuter the threat
Rav casts an Intensified Dazing Fireball (from 3rd lvl slot) centered so it will affect only the Marilith.
Evocation Spells DC= 19+spell level(School Power +2), +5 HP dam, +1hp dam per die of spell dam (orc bloodline power)

You can daze creatures with the power of your spells.
Benefit: You can modify a spell to daze a creature damaged by the spell. When a creature takes damage from this spell, they become dazed for a number of rounds equal to the original level of the spell. If the spell allows a saving throw, a successful save negates the daze effect. If the spell does not allow a save, the target can make a Will save to negate the daze effect. If the spell effect also causes the creature to become dazed, the duration of this metamagic effect is added to the duration of the spell.
Dazing is a mind affecting effect. And therefore creatures immune to those effects like undead are not affected.
once a creature has been affected by Dazing every round after the first it can make a Will save to act normally for that round. If the creature is subject to continous damage (Ball Lightning for example) it receives a -2 penalty to its Will save to act normally for the round
the logic behind these changes is that high level enemies tend to have reflex as their poor save particularly huge and colossal enemies. Giving enemies a chance to resist the Daze round by round after the initial round with their stronger save (Will) weakens the power of Dazing metamagic significantly. I think this is a fair nerf that allows me to continue using Daze without overpowering encounters
Level Increase: +3 (a dazing spell uses up a spell slot three levels higher than the spell’s actual level.
Spells that do not inflict damage do not benefit from this feat.
Elise casts Grace as a swift action and then moves 20' straight forward. She then snaps her finger and a rod appears in her hand, reach rod via glove of storing. She then begins to cast a spell..
Casting Reach Heal on Mal, full hp..
"We are servants of the light and will not be intimidated by the likes of you!"
Will update later tonight.
Round 1: Glabrezu
The demon moves around the dwarf, provoking AoO, and tries to pincer Elise!
Round 2: Marilith
The serpentine warrior smiles, "Thissss warrior must be important, priestess, for you wanting to ssssave hissss life. Let me end it in front of your eyes!" The marilith proceeds to flurry on the prone inquisitor, each blow causing him to scream in pain as her blades find chinks in the armor with each blow, leaving him a bloody mess. She then takes a 5' step toward Elise.
Elise defensive cast breath of life on Mal using her reach rod.. She channel as a move action as well.
109-22=Mal at 87..
He will get to act finally..
The light will prevail fiend!
Another ball of arcane destruction envelopes the Marilith

After launching the fireball Rav dimension slides over to Mal standing over him protectively ready to use an immediate action to raise an emergency force sphere if the Marilith moves towards us
