(edit)Pip, when Elgan's lightning went off, you saw the humanoid form, at f4-it backed up ten feet from where stiggy thought it was.
Do you want to move up next to Stiggy?
Gittik, Riese, and Altai left; as well as Pip...
"Crap! Ah'm lost."
You're right next to the giant skelly that just crashed to the ground...
Pip, with half his move, can make it up next to Stiggy at I3 where the skeleton falls....do you want to cruise up past Stig? You don't see anything but fog and big bones that just fell inanimate.
oh, see edit above...sorry; I forgot about the lightning effect.
You have a positional idea of where the mystery 'noid is.

soitinly!!!
Taking a gamble that the mystery skulker might be the dread Sakatha, Pip fires off his big spell
Dispel Magic target info:
One object, creature, or spell is the target of the dispel magic spell. You make a dispel check (1d20 + your caster level, maximum +10) against the spell or against each ongoing spell currently in effect on the object or creature. The DC for this dispel check is 11 + the spell’s caster level. If you succeed on a particular check, that spell is dispelled; if you fail, that spell remains in effect.
If you target an object or creature that is the effect of an ongoing spell (such as a monster summoned by monster summoning), you make a dispel check to end the spell that conjured the object or creature.
If the object that you target is a magic item, you make a dispel check against the item’s caster level. If you succeed, all the item’s magical properties are suppressed for 1d4 rounds, after which the item recovers on its own. A suppressed item becomes nonmagical for the duration of the effect. An interdimensional interface (such as a bag of holding) is temporarily closed. A magic item’s physical properties are unchanged: A suppressed magic sword is still a sword (a masterwork sword, in fact). Artifacts and deities are unaffected by mortal magic such as this.
Pip strums Lucille
And I'm singing ...
Bye bye all the buffs that you try
Tried to whip up several haste spells
But your magic ran dry
Them Regulators guzzling Whiskey and Rye
Singing this'll be the day that you die
This'll be the day that you die ....
Go ahead and make 5 caster checks; I'm not saying that five is the number necessarily....it's just in the spirit of all this mysterious crap that's going on.
You don't know exactly what happened; you just hear, "what the.....YOU BASTARD!!!!!" in a screechy old woman's voice...
Gittik; Riese; and Altai left this round.
Oso chuckles to himself at the swearing from the woman. "Doan dis der halfling. Ma main man comes through again."
"GAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
Gittik savages the hag, but she just won't fall....
many of his blows and bites draw blood.
Riese up! Then Altai...
Elgan-Hawk smiles a predatory grin as the giant skelly topples like a petrified tree. When the unseen witch begins cursing due to the effects of Pip's auditory magic, his shifty-hawk grin becomes downright disturbing.
:)
3d6=12 Fiery burst on the hag. Taking care to avoid hitting any companions.
"Boom!"
Riese's fiery burst doesn't seem to affect the hag....
Altai runs to g3, and fires two scorching rays...you hear him cry out, "sea haaaag!"
Then there's another fireball that pops off; Stiggy, Oso, Pip, and Altai are in the burst.....23 h.p. dmg; d.c. 15 reflex save for half.
Gittik's opponent manages to claw and bite him once each; 24 h.p. in damage to the berserk harfoot.
At k6, a green hag flickers into site as her claws rip at his face and neck....Beldan takes 23 h.p. in damage.
She responds to Altai's cry...."It's not the hags you see, boy...it's the hags you DON'T see! Ahihihihihiiii!"
ROUND 3!!!!! Everybody's attack...
Pip looks to blind a few hagithas
Strums Lucille
Blind, blind you will be
For there are no more blind
Than those who will not see ..
You can hit the lone seahag, or the greenhag; if you hit the greenhag AND the other one Gittik is fighting, you'll hit Gittik and Beldan...
It's a "10 foot radius" thing.
Heathy:
She doesn't seem to be blind, but she doesn't look as good as Shirley Eaton in Goldfinger either, covered as she is with scintillating gold dust...
<I'll move in on whichever hag I can see, or have recently spotted. Who would that be?>
<I'll move in on whichever hag I can see, or have recently spotted. Who would that be?>
<I'll move in on whichever hag I can see, or have recently spotted. Who would that be?>
The "sea hag" of which Altai spake is 10 feet ahead of you;
the "green hag" that is covered in glitterdust can be seen through the mist; a five foot step gets you within striking distance.
Which is what Beldan just said...
Elgan flaps about frantically trying to spot the reason for Beldan's screaming. When the Glitterdust goes off, it's tell-tale glow leaves enough residue on the hag for the Druid-Hawk to see her through the mist. And that's all he needs. Another roll of thunder peals as the lightning bolt pummels the glowing hagette.
<I'll move in on whichever hag I can see, or have recently spotted. Who would that be?>
<Stig whales on Beldan's dance partner. Almost removing his own toe in the process.>
Lightningbolt...
She's got a....heh heh....
she's got a bride of frankenstein hairdo now.
There you go, Altai....just kidding.
She gets blasted by the lightningbolt; she's still up but she's smoking out of her orifices.
"Hahahahahaaa! I'll eat your liver, dwarf! I'll eat your spleen! Not you, pretty young thing...(to Beldan) I've other plans for y"
Stiggy puts an axe in her thoracic cavity and she shuts up.
She's still up, but the comic price guide wouldn't call her near mint, or even very fine.
I know it's academic but....the first swing hit; the second swing he pitched the axe back and smacked hisself in the top of the helmet with the back of the axehead.
“Argh! That hurt you nasty biatch!”
<lightning bolt> “Ha, suck on that!”
<axe swing> “And that!”
The green hag is closer, but not by much...
“And this!” Beldan thrusts his rapier into the green old lady’s vitals. “Is that what you had in mind?”
There's a look of surprise, and of sadness; and then of deranged mirth, as she falls gibbering and cackling, and is still...
Gittik, Riese, Altai, and Oso up to bat.....
"Hahahahahaaa! I'll eat your liver, dwarf! I'll eat your spleen! Not you, pretty young thing...(to Beldan) I've other plans for y"
Stiggy puts an axe in her thoracic cavity and she shuts up....
"Ef ye want Beldan ol' muthah ye'll 'ave te flart a li'l en mebbe hide them dugs."
"Hey, me get hurt too! Deaf and Blind get hurt, him scream like little girl take up backhole first time, everyone run help him. Nice! Now me know where me stand. You no worry, me kill old bag by myself. Me no need help." <Grumble>
<Casts an eye over at Beldan.>
"Och bide, e's lookin' at yer honey pot noo. Ye goot 'eem."
"Hey, me get hurt too! Deaf and Blind get hurt, him scream like little girl take up backhole first time, everyone run help him. Nice! Now me know where me stand. You no worry, me kill old bag by myself. Me no need help." <Grumble>
<Stig shouts back at Gittik.>
"Dammit jist chew 'er feckin' throot it loch ye di' wi' th' giant."
Oso stumbles forward to the sounds of fighting and attacks the other hag with gusto.
"Kelanen preserve us!"
"BLEAAAAARRRGHHHH!"
The cleric rushes forward, and staves in the seahag's skull; she drops.
He sees Altai sitting there on the ground, staring off into space, repeating...."....ugly.....so...damn....ugly...." over and over again.
The put upon hobbit lops the head off his foe with the first blow, and lands about seven more before he realizes the battle is ended...
end of combat. 1,700 exp each.
The mist, the rain; they end; the room is as it was before, except for the addition of 3 dead hags and a few piles of hill giant bones.
Again, there's a door out toward the south.
"Hey, you steal my kill! You better heal me now...!"
<brandishes weapons indignantly>
"I'm hurt too..."
The mage is burnt majorly from two fireballs....the narsty purple feathers are gone at least.
Pip strums Lucille over feral hobbit
Gittik Wittik puddin n' pie
Smacked the hags and made them cry
When his wounds were on display
Pip the bard sang them away ..
Hag head:
"what about me? I'm the most hurt of all of ya!
I'll swaller yer soul! Swaller yer soul!"
Elgan-Hawk circles the room a couple of times, just to make sure that the piles of giant bones don't get back up again. Then he lands and shimmers back into a woodelf.
"Nice wurk chere'. Be car'ful now. Dem scratches luuk nasty. Ah gots sumthin fer dem. Now hol' still, we don' wan' dem gettin' infected."
And the small elf happily begins tapping various people's wounds with the healing wand, closing up the worst of the hag scratches and giant-caused bruises.
Hag head:
"what about me? I'm the most hurt of all of ya!
I'll swaller yer soul! Swaller yer soul!"
Pip walks over
Swallow this ..
Spears the head with Allegro
Altai's healed up 6 h.p. from Elgan's love tap; still 19 down.
