The owlbear bites into his shoulder and Darius cries in pain. Stumbles back and puts up a shield of faith.
The Owlbear follows Darius and keeps attacking.
Darius takes yet another step back from the owlbear, with each hit the shield taking the brunt. One manages to get through and he stumbles against the wall, looks up and his eyes glow as he uses a strong healing spell to keep himself in the fight.
Darius grin's wickedly. The thrill of battle on his face, he grips his sword tighter.
The Owlbear doesn't care much for what Darius is trying. It just keeps clawing and biting at him.
Darius dives to the side and holds his fist up summoning a rams ethereal head from his ring and blasts it at the owlbear trying to force the owlbear back away from darius.
A ghostly ram emerges from the rings and rams into the owlbear. Which leaves it on it's last legs. But it is still intent to take Darius down with it.
Grergof finally recovers enough to stand up, gripping his flail.
He runs closer to the owlbear and shouts: Darius do you want some help?
Darius dodges back then backs off another 10 ft away.
"Curses, yes. This woulda have been over long ago in my younger years. I think he's almost done for."
"Hold, I'll end this, or at least try to." Darius smirks and says to Grergof. "Hopefully there's enough left of me for you to heal if I fail." he says with a wink.
Darius hops back and then backpedals about 10 feet.
"Come 'n get it."
The owlbear wonders why Darius keeps going away.
Darius, using his sword to block the incoming attacks chances a stab at the owlbear looking for an opening.
Darius cuts the owlbear down.
And Darius slumps against the wall and slides down to the floor visibly breathing hard, sweating and bleeding. He takes a moment to catch his breath and waits for the rest of the team to gather before channeling some healing for everyone.
Stam final stops heaving his guts out, wiping his mouth on his sleeve he looks up at Darius and Grergof.
"Sorry friends, that gas...." Stam dry heaves a bit "It got the better of me."
Regaining his feet Stam, moves over to help Darius clean up the gore off himself.
"Do you think they kept that as a pet?"
Spugnoir shivers, a miserable ball of pain. Ugghhh....
Could he have charmed the creature or magically called it up?
Geregof asks while looking at the cloud.
When he glances st the body he says:
A mighty kill Mr. Redgrave. If you had not been here the rest of us would have been its dinner!
As soon as the cloud clears (or a minute passes) he indicates he is moving forward and heads to look down the hallway.
As Grergof checks he is met by a crocodile that walks out of the room.
The crocodile runs towards Grergof and bites in his leg and grabs him.
"Someone is summoning these, we need to find them." Stam stays behind the armored men.

Spugnoir throws a bomb at the crocodile, making sure it won't hurt his allies
And there is a now bloody and almost dead crocodile.
Grergof non-shalntly smashes at the crock with his glowing Flail
We gave you a chance.... Grergof mutters as he begins to double time down the hallway to the wizard. (assuming of course that kills the croc)
The crocodile that held on to Grergof's armored leg gets to taste more metal and ceases to be.
Moving on to the room again and the passage he cleared out he sees Estovion again and is greeted by a volley of magic missiles.
Darius finally catches up after resting for a bit.
"Oh no you don't!" He says to Estovion.
Ducking behind the edge of the wall for cover he places a spell upon himself.

Darius's muscles seem to bulge a under his armour from the magic infusing his body. He grips his sword and gets ready to move.
"Stam, be a good sport and show this fool how a real wizard does."
He then nods to Spugnoir "Spugs, you okay? think you can manage a bomb or two for our 'friend'."
Stam follows the others down the hall.
"No time for laying around Spug's, time to fight this would be mage."
Stam ducks down with Darius, "I will bring my earth Friend to help us." Keeping his head low Stam summons his friend the Earth Elemental.

SPECIAL ABILITIES
Earth Glide (Ex)
A burrowing earth elemental can pass through stone, dirt, or almost any other sort of earth except metal as easily as a fish swims through water. If protected against fire damage, it can even glide through lava. Its burrowing leaves behind no tunnel or hole, nor does it create any ripple or other sign of its presence. A move earth spell cast on an area containing a burrowing earth elemental flings the elemental back 30 feet, stunning the creature for 1 round unless it succeeds on a DC 15 Fortitude save.
Earth Mastery (Ex)
An earth elemental gains a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls if both it and its foe are touching the ground. If an opponent is airborne or waterborne, the elemental takes a –4 penalty on attack and damage rolls. These modifiers apply to bull rush and overrun maneuvers, whether the elemental is initiating or resisting these kinds of attacks. (These modifiers are not included in the statistics block.)
I got a shield extract that can protect against the magic missiles.
Grergof waits for his allies to be ready then climbs through the hole.
Spugnoir hands Darius a Barkskin extract to help him avoid getting hit(+3 Natural AC)
Right as Grergof climbs through the hole the room with the others in fills with black tentacles.
Stam, Darius and Spugnoir are grappled by the tentacles and hurt by their tight grip.
A partition of iron bars divides this chamber. To one side, rows of shelves lined with bottles and beakers filled with strange fluids and jars containing powdered reagents and herbs surround a long stone surgical table. Another shelf holds a selection of tarnished surgical tools. On the far side of the bars, a 10-foot-deep pit sits in the floor of a crudely chiseled cave. Rusted manacles lie scattered about the floor near the edge of the pit.
Grergof find himself in the room with Estovion.
"Curses all to the nine hell's!" Darius says as he tries to break free of the black tentacles.
"Bah, I need to make more scrolls of the spells I need. When do we get to rest for long enough?" Stam calls out thoroughly frustrated.
Stam flails about uselessly.

Spurnoir gets out his potion of Gaseous form and drinks it, Gotta kill that guy quick! He then floats through the bars to join Varsk.
Estovion steps back at the wall and casts a spell at Grergof.
The two rays burn Grergof badly.
You had your chance to repent for past misdeeds but chose not to, now the bill comes due.
Sarenrae guide my hand!
Grergof closes and tries to trap the mage between himself and the wall. When in position he does not hesitate, he slams his flail into the older man trying to put him down before he can magic himself away again.
"મૅજિસ્ટને મેળવો અને તેને મારી નાખો" Stam says in Terran
Get to the mage and kill him
"HAH! take that Estovion, Get him my little friend!" Stam says the last part in Terran as the earth elemental forms from the rock by the feet of the now doomed Wizard.
Grergof dishes out more than Estovion can take. As he was still wounded from the fight the previous night and healing doesn't grow on trees. He falls down on the ground and dies.
Spugnoir reforms next to Vark. Darius! Do your healing magic for yourself and Stam until the tentacles go away.
"Ugh, might as well!" Darius grunts through clentched teeth.
After half a minute the tentacles disappear.
"Thank you Darius and your God for the healing, you can work miracles." Stam moves over to the mage, looking down at his body then at the elemental.
"Thank you for your service, could you do a bit of scouting for us? See if there is anyone else about?"
Search around the room we are in to see if I see anything important, or the stone the ghost is tied to.
