Choking on the gas, but otherwise unharmed, Nayce tries to shut the outer airlock door to keep out the Belker and prevent gas from flooding the outer room.
All: Just seen Davi's post on gamer connection that he's pulling out of all his games for a while. You should be fine as is with five active posters and I'll descale my rescaling.
One of the suited figures bangs frantically on the porthole and drives a blade into the other.
Chilling Blade (AC). On hit target takes -2 penalty to speed to end next turn
1d20+18=29. Hits. 1d10+10=17

Prophetic Guidance against V

The next ally who misses the target before the end of your next turn can re-roll the attack
Amenephus channels divine power into the Mohrg and makes any wounds it takes for a time worse.
No sooner has Amenephus pointed an elegant finger at the Morgh highlighting all its weak points for his friends, than an amorphous mass of rancid air breaks through the other door and envelops both Nayce and Isari in acidic tendrils.
Engulfing Smokeclaws (Ref). Targets one or two medium creatures. Reach 2. On hit target is grabbed and pulled into the Belker's space. Target is dazed and takes 10 ongoing acid damage (escape ends). The Belker can move normally while creatures are engulfed within it.
1d20+12=29 v Isari. Hits.
1d20+12=25 v Nayce. Hits.
Nayce and Isari are both grabbed, dazed and taking 10 ongoing acid. Escape ends.
Guldarin moves round for a better view."Oh I say. Where did all these poeple come from?" Rather than wait for the question to be answered, Guldarin concentrates on the ancient past, bringing forth his favourite weather conditions. As the storm bursts over the enemies, Isari and Nayce pop out of the airlock.
Move to F26
Tide of the First Storm. Area burst 2, C26, targets all enemies in burst.
versus Morhg, 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19 vs Reflex, edit: with it granting CA there's another +2 on this - so 21 vs Reflex
If that's a miss,, 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 16 + 2 = 30 vs Reflex for the reroll.
versus Belker, 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28 vs Reflex,
1d6 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 damage (additional +6 vs Mohrg) and the target is slowed.

Nayce steps back and sends a shadowy hex at the mohrg.
1 shroud on the Mohrg. Move to F24. Echoing Threat on Mohrg 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (7) + 20 = 27 vs Will. 1d10 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12 damage on a hit. At the end of its next turn, the target takes 10 psychic damage if any creatures are within 2 squares of it.
Nayce and Isari still have a move of 4 due to the pressure suits. They are no longer taking gas damage as they're not in the gas anymore.
The Mohrg darts forward and punches Dorvin in the gut. Isari's potent mark removes most of the damage, but the dwarf still finds himself on the floor.
Murderous Feint (Ref). On hit target is knocked prone and the mohrg shifts three squares. Miss, half damage, no prone and mohrg shifts 3 squares.
1d20+13=33. Crit. 13 damage. Less 11 from Isari's Aegis.
2 damage to Dorvin and he is knocked prone. Immediate save (dwarfy goodness - 1d20=8. No).

Venomtongue Mohrg - one shroud; under Isari's Aegis; -2 to speed to end its turn; slowed to end Guldarin's next turn
Rusty lets himself go as a flurry of attacks variously hack, burn and dizzy the Mohrg. As the last movement dies away, it's quite clear that the creature is well bloodied.
Isari grins happily and moves closer before unleashing a noose of lightning that drags the unfortunate undead between himself and the dragonborn.
Lightning Lure (Fort). On hit target is pulled to an adjacent square
1d20+15=25. Hits. 1d6+9=11 damage

Dorvin growls, gets up and charges in with great fury.

I will be out of town with limited access to the comp until next Saturday :(
Amenephus lances radiant light through the melee to strike at the mohrg.
At this rate, neither monster is going to be around very long, but if either of them makes it as far as the next round, I'll take care of Amenephus for you if you find it difficult to post.
Amenephus irradiates the Mohrg which flinches back from the radiance.
Vulnerable 5 radiant.
The Belker emerges from the airlock and wraps itself firmly around Nayce and Guldarin, hauling them inside it's acidic airy self.
Engulfing Smokeclaws (Ref). On hit target is grabbed and pulled into the Belker's space. Target is dazed and takes 10 ongoing acid damge (escape ends both). Belker can move with engulfed creatures.

Enraged and free for the first time in many years, it lunges at Dorvin sending a gout of acid into the dwarf's eyes.
AP.

Dorvin - blinded (se)
Amenephus
Belker - slowed to end Guldarin's next turn
"Please don't hug me like this. I like to keep my personal space a little more personal than this." Guldarin concentrates, and a burst of thunder rips into the belker's body, expelling Nayce.
Thunder of Judgement, targeting the Belker; 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22 vs Fortitude, 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (4, 3) + 8 = 15 thunder damage and target is dazed teomnt.
In addition, as part of the Covenant of Preservation I shift Nayce one square to C24

Nayce flits into place beside the Mohrg and swings at it with his sword.
2 shrouds on the mohrg using Killer's Insight. Shadow Step to E21. Shadow Storm on the mohrg invoking 3 shrouds. 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (15) + 23 = 38 vs AC. 1d8 + 21 ⇒ (4) + 21 = 25 damage on a hit plus 3d6 + 9 ⇒ (6, 6, 4) + 9 = 25 shroud damage. (50 total - I'll take it.)
Mere seconds after emerging from the airlock, the Mohrg is dead once more, leaving the friends looking as is they're about to do a country dance as they stand around it.
Rusty moves via F24 to E25 and swings at the Belker with sword and shield.
Tide of Iron 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31 vs AC; 1d10 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13 damage.
Hit: The Belker is pushed one square and Rusty shifts one square to D25. (Hopefully this breaks its grab on Guldarin.)

80/90 HP; 4/11 Surges:
Rusty bounds across the room and forces the Belker backwards towards the airlock, making it disgorge Guldarin in the process. Hampered by his heavy leather pressure suit, Isari follows and fluffs his own attack, although he manages to draw the Belker's attention with his Aegis.
Minor - end Blinded condition using periapt. Move to D27. Standard - Surround Foe 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (16) + 15 = 312d10 + 9 ⇒ (6, 2) + 9 = 17 on a hit, I can slide 1 ally adjacent to the Belker to any other square adjacent to the Belker. You can move through its space. Right, who wants to go where? :D
Dorvin concentrates on his neck adornment and can see once more. He moves to join his fellows, and bellows, "Get roond 'im!"
Rusty probably makes the most sense. Holding rolling for the Belker until I know if he's taking Dorvin's free shift.
Dorvin gets his vision back and sets about reorganising the battlefield.
Amenephus moves gracefully aside and drives another lance of divine light through the creature. Not only does he bloody it, but he also imbues Rusty with an even stronger sense of purpose.
Lance of Faith (Ref) - on hit one ally gains a +2 to next attack on Belker.
1d20+15=32 - Hits. 1d8+14=18 radiant.
Rusty shifts a bit closer and the Belker attempts to invade Guldarin and Isari's personal space again. Hampered by his heavy protective suit, the swordmage is engulfed once more.
Smokeclaws (Ref) v Isari and Guldarin. On hit target is grabbed and engulfed. Dazed and takes 10 ongoing acid (escape ends both)
1d20+12=30 v Isari. Hits.
1d20+12=16 v Guldarin. Miss.
Guldarin moves carefully backwards. "Annoying creature. Someone should do something about this pawing at people." He points is rod, and expresses his displeasure with some shards of divine power.
Shift to E27
Grasping Shards, 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33 vs Reflex, 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14 damage and target is slowed teomnt
Nayce moves into position and tries to beguile the belker.
Move to H25. Eyebite 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29 vs Will. 1d6 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16 psychic damage, and I am invisible to it to SOMNT. 2 shrouds on it (velvet blade trick).
Guldarin and Nayce both express their disapproval in their own different ways. Slowed by the dwarf, the Belker can't even identify the whereabouts of the assassin. With the rest of the group ranged menacingly around it, it looks now as if its career may soon by over.
Rusty - +2 next attack against Belker
Isari - grabbed and dazed taking 10 ongoing acid (escape ends both)
Dorvin
Amenephus
Belker - BLOODIED; under Isari's Aegis; slowed to end Guldarin's next turn; two shrouds
