Round 3
Nym sends the eagle after the red-headed caster next. At the same time, he uses his standard action to discontinue the Grease spell, making the ground safer for his allies to close in on the rest of the ambushers.
Once one of the others clears the way, Nym will step up to the fallen Sele, getting ready to minister him a potion of CLW on the next round.

Seeing that Nym has a potion out, Fosco decides not to use the infernal healing on him. Paladins aren't practical in that way and would probably resent it. Instead he decided to show his own caliber and push the fight forward. Stepping over the dying Halfling he summoned another silver falcon to wreak havoc amongst their assailants.
[ooc]Move, Summon Monster I (Celestial Eagle), 1 more for the day.
Larkin's readied attack goes off, he ft5 stes back, flanking with Deandreas yet another bird pops up.
He barely hits. The bird drops.
Asami is lucky the mist tampered with Deandre's aim. She herself takes 9 in return.
"You b!tch, your mother was a hamster and father smelled of elderberries!
As Keera comes close, Deandre slashes her sword.
She hits the druid for 7 dmg.
The laughter returns. "Oh pweeeease start begging, i so like them squirming...teehee." Halli aims an acidic ray at the roc, provoking AoO.
The great bird misses and receives a blast of acid to its chest, for 2 dmg.
Larkin 5ft steps forward and tries to kick Keera's feet away, Keera makes an attempt to hit him however.
Keera drops prone from his foul play.
Nym's turn
Deandre
|

Nym bends down spending time to pour every drop of the healing potion into the mouth of the fallen paladin. "There's a good lad (lass?)" Nym says, thereby keeping the androgynous running joke alive.
In the battlefield, the summoned eagle dives at Larkin, screaming its anger at the poor man before attacking with beak.
Despite being pretty wounded, Sele's main artery has closed and he is stable at -4.
Larkin manages to evade the sharp beak of Nym's summoned eagle. "Cut it out!"
Deandre laughs mockingly at the druid at her feet.
"That's right, kiss my feet and i may let you keep something."
, it's a hit vs the prone Keera.
Fosco summons an eagle, which was cut down by Larkin's readied attack.

Keera stands up relying in her magic to avoid undesirable damage.
This is the only kiss you´ll see again. Shouts at him, angry due the being knocked to the floor and insulted.
Meanwhile Alacorta bites the foul woman who has hurted him.
The fogs bothers him, but not so much to not been able score a hit against the woman.
Deandre's attack passes through air, but Larkin jabs Keera for 4 dmg.

Asami lunges forward, aiming for Deandre, whose armor deflects it.

"^!**# poobird!"
Halli angrily moves foward, provoking from the roc and the eagle.
She dodges both birds. She stands half on top of Larkin's arm, ignoring the injuries he has. She opens her hand down the alley.
"Rainbow to the face, m*&herf*&ckers!"
Nym's turn.
Deandre
|

Nym looks up from ministering to Sele just in time to see all his allies drop in the color spray emanating from the blond caster. Gesturing for his summoned creature to attack, Nym casts Mage Armor on himself, knowing this is going to hurt. He also prepares his quarterstaff for melee combat in the obscuring fog.

With Nym's completed administered aid to Sele, who's dreaming paladin-esque dreams, he casts mage armor and braces for the redhead's approach.

Nym & Eagle's turn
Deandre
3 on 1, you can do it!!
|
|
Nym swings at the surviving enemy with his quarterstaff as his flying companion moves behind to flank. Nym's quarterstaff flails around clumsily drawing nothing but air, but its effect to distract the evil cleric is a success as the eagle tears into her with beak and talons slashing.
Screaming mightily, the eagle disappears to whatever plane it came from, leaving the field eerily quiet.
EDIT: Due to Summoner's charm, eagle is around 1 more round...
The combined efforts of Nym and his summoned eagle are a plague to Deandre, who's moving alot to dodge it.
Before disappearing, the eagle's 1st talon hits Deandre in the shoulder for 3 dmg.
"%@*!!! I'll get you for that."
Deandre misses, much to his displeasure.
Round 7
Fosco's eagle
Nym & Eagle
Deandre
|
|
Being a holy eagle, it looks with displeasure at the cursing one, while appreciating the bravery of the wizard to defend his comrades. Although being just a dumb eagle, it doesn't really recognize Nym's infernal connections per se. With a screech, it flaps over to attack the foul mouthed ambusher. The fog interfered with it's talon attack and missed the vital point for an armored one.
Nym and eagle, go!
|
|
Seeing the last of this plane, the eagle makes a last ditch attack on the evil cleric. The eagle whiffs as it blinks out of existence. Nym swings his quarterstaff with all the strength his meager frame can manage, striking the red-head, but despite his most fearsome swing, doing only little damage.
Nym then takes a 5' step, and withdraws his wand of summon monster with his off hand, preparing to use it if necessary in the following round.
As Deandre dodges the ferocious eagle's talons and beak, Nym takes opportunity and hits Deandre over the head with a firm *WHACK* that leaves her with a sore head.
"What the &(#)!!"
Deandre 5ft steps up to the wizard, she backswings the back of her sword against Nym's temple.
Nym starts to see double and passes out.
Fosco, your eagle vs Deandre now.
...............
The eagle does its job splendidly, taking down Deandre in a fit of swipes and curses from the redhead.
|
The swashbuckler comes to, grabs the rapier by her side and kips up to a standing position...
...and lands on her delicate behind with a resounding "Oomph!"
"This is not over yet! Where are you hiding! Come out and fight me like a girl! Er...why is everyone on the ground? Oh hey Keera. Did you do this? Good job!" The suave Asami praises Keera from her not so suave sitting position, before getting up much more mundanely.
|
|
Fosco sits up, holding his hand over his eyes and squinting as if he had a migrane. "I don't want to eat rainbows anymore, and I never did any such thing to my mother."
After his head clears, he removes his hand to see the ladies up. He made ready to speak to them, but then noticed the guys were terribly injured. Quickly he applied a dab of blood from a pouch on the prone elf, speeding up his own natural processes of healing.

|
Asami gathers her wand and considers prodding Sele with it. However, she realizes Sele may interfere, if he were awake to witness what happens next. Instead, Asami rummages the ruffians, and strips every one of them down before chucking all the junk into a dark corner.
Satisfied with her handiwork, the swashbuckler tries tapping the paladin with her heal stick.
The mist clearing up, some passing by people notice a woman stripping 4 people of clothing and weapons.
#1"Oh dear, is she...robbing someone?"
#2"Hush dear, before she comes for us too, hasten your pace."
With the whole group back on their feet, it's time for the last few streets to return the items to Venture Captain Ambrus Valsin.
"Greetings, good to see you still on your feet.", he says it formally but notices the bruises which hadn't quite cleared yet. "Anyway, today was a busy day to be sure. You may think it boring, running errands, but i can assure you not all assignments are. Far from it, some are considerably risky. Letters of commendations have arrived from all 4 contacts, seems you've done exceptionally well. Take rest for whatever you need done for now, good day to you pathfinders."
After being spotted by a couple who passed a particular alley, some of Absalom's guards wanted to have a word with her. This news reached, via unknown channels, the ears of Guaril Karela, owner of the "Pickled Imp".
He made sure she had a place to lay low for a few days and even made her an offer for a 'discrete' delivery. It concerned white hats to a particular weird merchant, so it turned out as she delivered it.
During the next day, Fosco was spotted by 2 children, whom he met earlier at the orphanage of auntie Baltwin. Apparently she had been arrested by The Silver Crusade on account of child labor and black market dealings. Putting facts together that Fosco had a hand in her arrest , he was given a small pouch of marbles and a doll. The children had been adopted and gave them as a memento.
During a visit to the vet for ointment to remove the acid burns from her roc's chest, the roc noticed a small pet hamster. It being the bird of prey it is, it caused a ruckuss, forcing the vet to put a sleep spell on the great bird. After the acid burns were fixed, she was given a blindcap for the roc's head and the advice to keep training the great bird.
Nym did indeed get an invitation from the paracountess, as he had offered to come if called upon. However, the paracountess' idea of private social time, involved ropes, leather strappings and other objects. The man was released 2 days later, with the adress of another more secluded residence and the nickname 'pet'.
Despite a rapid physical recovery, Sele hadn't fully recovered from the sight of crazy halflings. During a scene of halfling jugglers with frantic yelling, he felt a tiny bit nervous. Luckily, he recovered by an excellent distraction. The warden of the prison asked for him to probe some detainees for evil intentions. Just so happens, one of those was an old woman who had been put into alcohol-rehab.
