Unfortunately, the Poison renders you unconscious, not asleep. The only way to come around is have it removed.
Whiskers lashes out at the Drow but only lands with a single claw. Iso likewise strikes but the Axe goes wide of its mark in the pervading darkness. Kelson puts his hand on the Gnome's shoulder and tries to wake him but is unable to do so, though he does close some of the Gnome's wounds.
With a harsh laugh, the Drow raises her Unholy symbol and chants a single word, bathing you in horrid red light. As she does so, the Demon behind Iso and Antonella starts to howl in rage...

@GM - gotcha on the unconscious vs sleep. Should I roll anything to keep him mounted?
Also, both Wembly and Whiskers are Neutral...so no save, nor damage?
Wembly's wounds close some, although he is oblivious.

Iso froths at the dark energy wafting over him. "ARRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Looking up the Ride skill, it would seem it is a DC 5 ride check to stay in the saddle. However as you are unconscious you are at -5 DEX rather than your normal modifier. Go ahead and roll it. Yes sorry, I forgot to mention it is half damage on a pass as normal channel.
Wembly/Whiskers are safe from the attack ^^
Skulking down the Passage, Wembly and Whsikers see the Drow move silently across the stone floor, before shooting at Iso!

Iso roars his pain and frustration, as he swings back at the demon that was clawing him.
auto miss from darkness, 1-50 is bad:1d100 ⇒ 3
This time he misses by a long way.
If the extra damage was from sneak attack, I think Iso may have been out of the 30' range limit for it.
You are correct Iso is out of the 30' sneak attack, silly rogues, damage edited. The Demon's claws do go through.
Thanks to the ministrations of Jorah, Wembly opens their eyes in shock as Whiskers Tears in the Drow, hitting with a claw and the last bite, managing to grab the Dark-skinned creature.

Wembly snaps out of the poison induced-coma.
What? Who? Where am I?
He hears battle but sees nothing, as if his eyes did not work.
Whiskers, I need your eyes again!
He shares senses with the eidolon cat and peers around the cave.
Antonella, there is a demon just 10' from you, to your east. Iso is right next to it between you."
He looks around some more...
"Whiskers has grabbed the drow lady in front of him near us...west. And that pesky sniper is a good dart throw away to the east over a tunnel or bridge.
Wembly perks up and starts informing his companions with the use of Whisker's eyes.
Looking down at her leg clenched in Whisker's Jaws, the Drow Priestess sighs. "Multiple Puncture wounds to left leg, indicative of feral beast biting subject." she says dispassionately. Annoyed she casts a spell in her native tongue.
concentration, DC 24:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15
Due to being clenched in WHisker's Jaws, the spell fails.

@GM Sethran, minor point: I have Antonella at full health after swift LoH last round.
Very relieved to hear Wembly’s voice, though the stoic paladin is careful not to let it show in her voice, Antonella moves 30’ at half-speed in a wide sweeping arc to set up a flank with Whiskers on the female drow. (Movement does not provoke)
“I am glad to hear you are still with us, Brother. If we can eliminate the drow matriarch, the fight is ours!”
50% miss chance, high is good in d20 games:1d100 ⇒ 60
It is a moot point as she is grappled anyway, but be careful of metagaming a wide sweeping arc in a cavern you can't see in...
Antonella catches the Drow Priestess with a blow, but once again she seems bothered by the situation. "Minor blunt force trauma to abdomen, possible bruising." she says with a sigh as she tries to kick Whiskers off to no avail.
Meanwhile the Drow Raider seeks to take out one of the few that can see in this cavern, taking a shot at Jorah!
The sunrod won't do anything because of the deeper darkness. We would need a spell that is a higher level than deeper darkness.
After being hit with a bolt, Jorah moves towards the archer and begins a prayer to Desna to hide them from evil. Fog begins to billow out into the darkness from his shield, blocking all sight.
I thought on April 6th it was decided that it was just darkness? Yes no? :)
Jorah had Daylight cast before the Deeper Darkness. Since they are the same spell level, they essentially cancel each other out and the prevailing light level returns. When dealing with light sources, only the highest level is taken into consideration. IE, a sunrod has no effect in an area of Daylight, they do not stack. So the Deeper Darkness negates all light effects of spell level 3 or lower, while Daylight cancels all darkness effects of spell level 3 or lower. Also, since sunrods are considered non-magical sources, they never have any effect in darkness created by magic. Light levels are a confusing set of rules.

Iso continues to roar, in pain as much as pure rage now.
darkness is bad, on a low:1d100 ⇒ 49
But still his axe is defeated by the lack of illumination.
The sound of metal hitting rocks echoes around the cavern, and surely without the magical darkness there would be sparks.
"GGGGAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGGGG" cries out the frustrated barbarian.
There is a curse in the darkness as the Drow Sniper suddenly drops thir loaded bow as it becomes covered in a fine layer of grease. As the mists descend, Whiskers plants itself and Drow Priestess finds herself beneatth the Eidolon's bulk with a bemused smile.
"My, what a development." she remarks dryly. She then tries to undo her current predicament. With a surge of effort, the Drow is able to slam the palm of their hand into the Eidolon's eye, long enough to distract it and break free of the tangle, rolling away.
Antonella strikes out in the darkness, most of her blows are foiled by the blackness and her last is deflected off the Priestess' armour, in the darkness Inexora smiles at the flailing Monk.
Curing at their dropped Crossbow, the Drow sniper draws their rapier as they rush through the fog towards Jorah. With ppractice he lunges.

Iso, now in a Dire State(tm) prays to Desna that the demons claws haven't hurt his good looks too much.
He roars his anger, frustration and pain as he tries to finish the demon in a single powerful blow.
Does anyone have a normal torch or sunrod? Maybe that would work when spells do not. I seem to have lost mine...and seeing through Whisker's eyes is tiring me...I can only do it for a few more seconds.
Everyone remember to factor in Haste, Bless, and Inspire.
Jorah rushes to Iso's aid and tries to disable the demon with a blast of colors.
CL:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Casts Color Spray DC 19 Will save. Jorah also has the Awesome Display revelation which need to be factored in when calculating the HD effects.
Awesome Display Cha +6:
Each creature affected by your illusion (pattern) spells is treated as if its total number of Hit Dice were equal to its number of Hit Dice minus your Charisma modifier (if positive).
This means the HD categories break down like this for Color Spray:
8 HD or less
9 or 10 HD
11 or more HD

Add +2 to hit and damage for Iso from inspire. And +1 from bless. I think he was outside the haste unfortunately.
Inexora manages to keep her feet as the grease appears beneath her, but she is biten once more by Whiskers and held tight by the Cat's maw. Iso hits finally and hits hard, causing the Demon to hiss out with murder in its eyes. That Murder soon turns to stars as pretty colours wash over it and it collapses on its back.
2d4 ⇒ (1, 4) = 5
The Drow Priestess looks down at the Cat biting it with a roll of her eyes. "Hmm, you are persistant. Further impressions on right calf, indicative of a large feline."
She then raises her evil symbol and once more, evil red energy washes out.

The rapidly weakening Iso is kept on his feet only by the rage he feels for the demon in front of him!
Antonella brings forth her connections to the creatures of the various planes and directs it towards the grappled Priestess. There is an ominous tension in the air as Planar energies wrestle with Inner strength. With a faint pop, Planar energies succeed and suddenly the cavern is bathed in powerful light, strong enough to sting the eyes.
The drow fighting Jorah blinks fiercely against the sudden blinding light as he tries to strike the Desnan. But he misses blindly. The Demon on the ground remains oblivious.

And with a mighty blow he lines up the demon and does his best to remove its head.
After avoiding the blow from the drow warrior, Jorah floats over to Iso and lays a hand on his shoulder, letting the Starsong's warmth wash through him.

You might not want to do that during combat... Iso must attempt saves vs all spells, including haste, cure etc, while raging. I'll hold off making the save incase you change you mind about the action. Outside of rage, Iso will be very appreciative of the healing!

Iso, even in his weakened state, feels the magic wash over him and tries to resist it.
