Feeling the divine energy wash over her, Kissan feels a renewed sense of energy. Following the wishes of her friend and companion, she moves up to the yellow monk, ready to attack.

Andor runs in, rapier first, and plunges the weapon in the distracted monk's back. The man yells in shock and pain. The others move in to setup an attack on the monks.

The monks attempt to regroup after Andor and Kissan's mauling. Yellow makes a full withdraw through the barbed chains! double move, difficult terrain, Acrobatics DC 10:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9 However he brushes against the chains, and they frantically animate and start flailing at him!! chains!!!:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 for 1d6 ⇒ 1 slashing dmg and something else... that turns the monks face to a pale white... the yellow monks succumbs from his injuries and hangs suspended in the chains like the other corpse... dying
The blue robed monk runs back and opens the doors to F5. "Come out and deal with these intruders!" says the monk, and something big starts barking an unnatural bark. You then see... a large canine creature on fire coming out of that room, which easily maneuvers through the chains, then stopping near the center of the barbed lines. double move, Acrobatics DC 10:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
knowledge the planes DC 13:
reveals that this is a hell hound; you know one thing about it plus another thing for every 5 pt. you exceed the DC
Black and purple-robed monks step up to Red and Roldala and try to use their stunning fist on them as part of a full attack!
flurry of blows:
vs. Roldala
first+stunning fist:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8 for 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3 bludgeoning + Fort DC 11 or stunned 1 round

second:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6 for 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7 bludgeoning
Purple connects a deafening uppercut under Red's crocodile jaws that sends blood exploding out of his mouth and has him see quite a few stars... Fort DC 11 or stunned
Round 1&2
Asmodean Monks [yellow: dying; others fine]

all heroes are up! [Red -15 + Fort req'd // others fine]
Kn(planes) to find out DR, special defenses :1d20 + 8 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 8 + (2) = 12
Andor tries to identify the burning being.
Acrobatics :1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
He then decides to confront the burning creature first and runs into the barbed wires.
Andor attacks with his Rapier.
Rapier attack roll :1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Damage roll :1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Parry/Reposte:
In case Andor is attacked he uses 'Opportune Parry' and parries by expending an AoO to parry and spends a panache point (so if the attack roll of the opponent is lower than Andor's parry then the opponent does not hit and Andor could potentially reposte)
Opportune Parry:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
In case Andor successfully parries he uses 'Reposte' as an immediate action to attack the opponent that attacked him.

Roldala has been barely keeping her temper from boiling over, and the sight of the twitching, flailing chains is enough to tip her quite over the edge.
With a howl that seems to tear at her throat she lays about her, starting with the monk that struck Red.
Edmund's arrow does not find its mark and bounces off the hell hound's hide, sending burning embers flying.
Unsure of the supernatural threat coming his way, Kissan nevertheless heed Edmund's original command of attacking the nice, meaty and normal black-robed monk south of her!
The blue-robed monk runs to the double doors to the east, opens them and yells, "NOX!! MA'AM!! WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!!!"
"HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!?" comes a yelled answer from a dry-cut female voice. "LOUT! BLOCK THEIR PASSAGE... THE REST OF YOU, FOLLOW ME!"
Andor you can see additional monks in the room beyond... they retreat as commanded and are now beyond your line of sight.

BOTTING RED's FORT SAVE VS. STUNNING FIST FROM PREVIOUS ROUND: Fort vs. DC 11:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 [PASS!!]
@Red: Strongly recommend you drink a potion during your round's action to not be disabled; I'm not botting you because your next action will be critical for your character... these guys worship Asmodeus; hint, hint.
Andor attacks with his Rapier to get rid of this hound as fast as possible.
Rapier attack roll :1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Damage roll :1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Parry/Reposte:
In case Andor is attacked he uses 'Opportune Parry' and parries by expending an AoO to parry and spends a panache point (so if the attack roll of the opponent is lower than Andor's parry then the opponent does not hit and Andor could potentially reposte)
Opportune Parry:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
In case Andor successfully parries he uses 'Reposte' as an immediate action to attack the opponent that attacked him.

Back with Internet! Thanks GM, you are too kind!
Blood runs down Red's face and all he sees is red now, but just before, he gulps his last potion to keep himself barely breathing. "Raaaarrrr!" He yells in a howling rage, unleashing a series gruelling attacks on the Asmodean!
Round 2. 5 foot back, Move to retrieve, and move to drink! Start Rage Potion of CLW:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Hearing the roar of Red from the other side of the chamber, Edmund lowers his bow and dashes around behind Kissan and down the east side of the bookshelves. As he moves, he deftly pulls out a wand from his bandolier and upon arriving next to Red, taps the crocodile- washing him with a glow of healing light
CLW, Charge #8:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Move: 25ft, draw wand. Standard: CLW on Red. No additional commands for Kissan
Andor nimbly pokes the hell hound once more, avoiding the sinister chains, and Red tears down the black-robed monk. The hell hound retaliates against him, biting deeply. Kissan finishes the dying monk, biting her jugular and feasting on the warm blood. Edmund comes to Red's rescue, pumping healing energies into his reptilian system.
Roldala smashes the hell hound, not caring about the chains. The hell hound goes down, and the chains automatically animate to strike the half-orc female.
Hell hound vs. Andor
bite:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20 for 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8 p/b/s dmg plus 1d6 ⇒ 2 fire dmg.
Chains vs. Roldala
chains:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 for 1d6 ⇒ 6 slashing dmg -2 due to DR plus 1d1 ⇒ 1 pt. of STR dmg.

Edmund continues to press into the chambers, hoping that his ranged attacks can continue to harry the retreating opposition. He gracefully steps through the chains and continues to move down the hall- stopping just before the doors on the right.
"Kissan, heel!"
Handle Animal:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
He sets his feet and keeps his bow drawn down range- targeting the first creature that he sees
Move: 40ft, Standard: Ready action, Free: HA
Readied Attack:
Mst Bow, Precise Shot:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 +1 if within 30 feet
Damage, MC +2:1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 +1 if within 30 feet
Dropping the corpse, Kissan turns and trots off after her master. Warm, dark liquid coats her black fur- her long tongue licking her nose and snout while she moves.
Acrobatics:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
She pulls even with her human, and settles into a crouched position blocking the hallway next to him.
Move: 40 feet. Standard: Readied attack to defend Edmund
Defend (DC 20) The animal defends you (or is ready to defend you if no threat is present), even without any command being given. Alternatively, you can command the animal to defend a specific other character.
Kissan's original command was Heel. Once she has moved next to Edmund, her 'default' trick would become defend. Since she only made one move action, her defend would be a readied attack. Please let me know if you disagree with this line of thinking and I'll retcon. Thanks!

End Rage and be fatigued for 5 more rounds.
Turning to Edmund, the werecrocodile shows a bit of gratitude, "RRthanks...". Red huffs and puffs as his wounds slowly recover. "RRrr...We chase?" He asks, although eager, knows he's taken quite a hit and requires to not to jump into the fray without taking a bit of precaution.
I don't see any immediate threat, if that's the case, I suggest we take a break and recover before going and chasing after the rest?
The threat is not over and the enemies are doing stuff - we shall remain in initiative mode to keep track of time. Feel free to just delay or skip your actions if you have nothing to do. However, if you move, pull out scrolls/potions, please continue to post and list all your actions.
The heroes heal and regroup... the barbarians are winded!
GM Rolls:
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 101d20 - 4 ⇒ (10) - 4 = 6
SK2 hears the rustling of chainmail and booted feet coming down the hallway behind him!
Andor forges ahead and thinks he can see a... stream? with grass, bushes and trees... he also sees the monks speed towards the stream until he no longer has line of sight to them.
Andor has already posted actions for both Round 4 and 5, so he is not bolded this time around.

"Kissan, Guard Andor" he calls out, pointing to the human.
Handle Animal:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
With the right flank secured, Edmund moves back towards Red- drawing his wand as he moves. Arriving next to the man/beast- he taps him again with the wand.
"Were gonna need your claws here real soon. Go gettem'"
CLW #9:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
I couldn't take your wand because I was on the other side of the room, nor can I take it now and still be able to use it on you. I guess you'll just have to owe me one!

Noted with thanks!
Red wounds slowly heal with Edmund's help but a lot of the scars still remain. In thanks, he nods at Edmund and turns his head towards the approaching noise. "Rrr..." The werecrocodilekin hobbles towards the front, ready to anticipate and intercept what comes near, but at the same time stays close to Edmund for safety.
Move action and Ready action to attack any hostile within reach.
Six monks let by a massive half-ogre come down the stone path, walking directly towards Andor with murder in their eyes. Some of the monks are smiling evilly. The sound of chainmail and booted feet coming towards SK2, Red and Roldala intensifies.

Hearing the enemies approach from both flanks, Edmund uses all of his fortitude to stay calm in the moment.
"Now this here is a tight spot"
I don't know which threat is greater. I hope that Kissan and Andor can hold...
He reaches out and touches red on the shoulder. "Desna, send your protection over him" and Red is covered by a purple flash of energy that settles into his skin.
Last level 1 spell, protection from evil. Move North, into chains
...This spell wards a creature from attacks by evil creatures, from mental control, and from summoned creatures. It creates a magical barrier around the subject at a distance of 1 foot. The barrier moves with the subject and has three major effects.
First, the subject gains a +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves. Both these bonuses apply against attacks made or effects created by evil creatures....
SK2: Chains are difficult terrain; move back SK2 accordingly. If you climb on top of a table I'm also going to increase the Acrobatics DC to 15 if you don't want to touch a chain...
He takes a step back and readies himself to attack the next enemy adjacent to him. (5ft. step and standard action)
Rapier attack roll:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
Damage roll :1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Parry/Reposte :
In case Andor is attacked he uses 'Opportune Parry' and parries by expending an AoO to parry and spends a panache point (so if the attack roll of the opponent is lower than Andor's parry then the opponent does not hit and Andor could potentially reposte)
Opportune Parry:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
In case Andor successfully parries he uses 'Reposte' as an immediate action to attack the opponent that attacked him.

Peaking around the corner, Roldala notices two creatures already in range of her lucerne hammer! A scowling woman armed with a magnificent glaive, and beside her, a roiling wave of flesh with half-formed limbs and a dripping tumorous face.
Ready action goes off - which target? there will be no AoO as they will both 5-foot step; also, please look at the rules and confirm whether they have cover from your attack or not, as I am unsure if it applies with weapons with reach in this case.

Sorry, didn't see the notification so I thought this game was still a victim of the sitepocalypse!
The readied attack would go off against whoever moved close first, but if I get to pick I'd pick the person instead of the fiend.
Regarding reach weapons and cover:
"When making a melee attack against a target that isn't adjacent to you (such as with a reach weapon), use the rules for determining cover from ranged attacks." "To determine whether your target has cover from your ranged attack, choose a corner of your square. If any line from this corner to any corner of the target's square passes through a square or border that blocks line of effect or provides cover, or through a square occupied by a creature, the target has cover"
So the wall we're both next to shouldn't provide cover since I can just pick the top left corner to attack from. But then because cover is weird, we'll both have cover if we attack around the corner while we're adjacent to one another.
Edmund casts a friendly spell on Red;
The ogrekin charges Kissan and gets stabbed by Andor and bit by Kissan; (7 dmg total)
Charge vs. Kissan, shortspear, power attack:1d20 + 7 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 2 - 1 = 19 for 1d6 + 7 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 3 = 16 piercing dmg.
Roldala attacks the glaive-wielding woman and misses;
The lemure devil double moves between Roldala and Red; (Roldala can take an AoO)
Red attacks the lemure; (DR 5 so 2dmg total)
The glaive-wielding woman 5-foot steps and attempts to strike Roldala:
+1 glaive, power attack:1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 11 - 2 = 12 for 1d10 + 8 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 6 = 24 magical piercing dmg.
The monks move in. One of them attacks Kissan with stunning fist:
Stunning Fist:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20 for 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 and Fort save DC 11 or stunned. The monk drop kicks Kissan to the floor. The proud animal begins yet another spiral towards death...
