Arbiscar holds the damage from the strong club hit on the shoulder and responds with another slash over the blue coated thug.

Arbiscar waits for Jiankuo to set himself in flanking position and then he attacks the yellow coated thug unless it is dropped by Jiankuo's fury, in which case he attacks the red one.

Thug Purple Thug Blue
Thug Red Thug Yellow
Jiankuo
Sebastian
Purple Thug moves forward to Jiankuo and hits with his heavy flail:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20 and if he hits will do 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 points of damage.
Red Thug will continue trying to beat on Arbiscar with his club:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 and if he hits will deal 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8 points of damage.
"What are you doing here fools!?" Arbiscar turns towards the red coated thug "Where the hell have you hidden the maps?" he says as he swings his waraxe towards him.
mwk cold iron Dwarven waraxe:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 Cold iron/Slashing damage:1d10 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
As the thug falls, Arbiscar moves trough the rubble doing an arch to avoid any incoming attack of opportunity and sets himself to flank the remaining thug.
"I still simply have no idea how this group keeps getting cultists to join them." Sebastian says with a tsk as he looks around the room for anything of interest, then checks the thugs to see what they were carrying.
"Indeed, you can't be more certain Sir. With so many loses it is a marvel they keep finding even thugs to send to us." says the dwarf as he helps Sebastian on his search.
Perception aid:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
Nothing of great interest on the thugs. However, as you search around, inside the sarcophagus of Rashim Ismacco (see map) rests his scimitar, Rashim’s Caress.
After you free the Cassomirite slaves, they gratefully thank you for helping them and tell tales of the grotesque Dalirio below — namely that they’ve seen him use magic to turn other slaves into skeletons.
If you go down the stairs (to the north) you descend down into the Burial Chamber.
Several ornate burial niches adorn the passage walls. In the passage’s southwest corner, shattered niches reveal a massive set of iron double doors. An image carved on the doors depicts a dispassionate figure holding a gibbous moon.
"Ahem, I do believe we defeated a Dalirio in our first skirmish with this cult. I would be wary of whatever forces returned him to the world of the living." Sebastian warns the others, drawing his vial of holy water from his backpack and checking the doors for traps.
"Once you have shown us the way is clear Sebastian, I will lead us forward in destroying this cult."
If one of the cultists is still alive after the fight, Jiankuo will stabilise, disarm and smelling salts him.
"Your life may have meaning if you can help us destroy what lies ahead. Please, tell us what lies ahead and how to defeat it, and you may yet be redeemed in the eyes of the Dawnflower."
Diplomacy:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27
If diplomacy fails...
"If you remain silent and are not redeemed in the light, then you shall be redeemed by the sword!"
The thugs are fanatics. All they can tell you is that Dalirio was risen and will not be kept down, due to the blessings of Groetus.
You find no traps in this area.
As Arbiscar approaches the doors and opens them, you see a purple glow wash over this cold chamber, creating an otherworldly sheen. A large desk adorns the south wall; behind its oaken bulk hangs a large map of Cassomir. Straw-lined cages line the chamber’s east and west walls. In the center of the room, resting on a small pedestal, a black rock absorbs the chamber’s bright torch light.
Let's assume everyone followed Arbiscar. As none of you technically moved your peoples, I just moved his because he said he did move to the door. Go ahead and redo it as you're starting near the door.
"Well, thank you sir!" Sebastian says in gratitude to Illidan's helpful spell before advancing down the hall and assisting Jiankuo in destroying the remaining skeleton by distracting it with his rapier.
Combat aid another:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Jiankuo gets a +2 bonus to attack the remaining skeleton.
Skeleton Red
Skeleton Blue
Dalirio Purple
Illidan
Arbiscar
Jiankuo
Skeleton Blue is going to claw:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19 and deal 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 and then claw:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 again and deal another 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3 to Jiankuo if he hits.
Dalirio Purple will cast Cause Fear on Arbiscar.
Frightened for 1d4 ⇒ 2 rounds if you fail your will save, shaken for one round if you succeed.
Arbiscar approaches Dalirio and chops him with his waraxe.
mwk Cold iron waraxe:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 Slashing/Cold iron damage:1d10 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Arbiscar, totally frightened at the sight of the undead, starts running back and shouting "No! Abadar! He wants to kill us! Abadar! Safe us!" still on his mind, he makes a small movement to avoid the remaining skeleton.
Yes, the first one failed, but the second was successful.
I need a post from Illidan and Arbiscar before I do another action from Dalirio, but you can keep that roll to hit on your next turn, because it does hit.
Were you out of sight of him during your first round frightened? You could use your scroll for the 2nd round if you were. If you were still in sight of him for the 2nd round you'd have to run and I believe that would be your full turn.
