Bazzle attempts to wiggle free of her grasp.
"Ahh sweetie wait till we're alone. I'm shy."
Aster reaches up and heals Bazzle, ignoring any attacks by her enemy. "Ick, you are getting him all dirty, with You." she snaps.
With his recalculated numbers, Vandomir tries to take Xyl down...

Figuring that the ostovites are probably undead, Rexandi weaves a bit and manages to cast a cure moderate wounds spell, then reaches out to touch one.
Bazzle tries to wriggle his way free, but the warm touch of the Succubus is too tempting for him. She stuffs him into her chest, muffling his desire to escape. Aster takes the opportunity to heal Bazzle of his most serious wounds, while Vandomir shoots an arrow into her thigh. Meanwhile, Rexandi makes the unfortunate conclusion that the Ostovites are not undead, despite the skeletal appearance. In bone-chariot form, they are constructs, and in fish form, they are extraplanar magical beasts. Abbo continues bashing into the skeleton at the entrance, saying "Can you tap me with one of those, Rexandi? I don't have fireproof skin, and its burning hot in here."
Completely ignoring Aster and Vandomir, Xyl lifts Bazzle up to her face and kisses him full on the mouth. She is eager, kissing Bazzle vigorously and sucking on his tongue. As Bazzle's eyes nearly roll into the back of his head, Vandomir spots that Xyl's wounds are regenerating.
On the other side of the fire, the skeleton that was wounded mends itself somewhat, while the Ostovites in the back continue spitting acid at the table.
Bazzle kisses Xyl back with abandon.

"She sucked his life force out and is regenerating!"
With Xyl preoccupied with Bazzle, Vandomir continues shooting her...

Rexandi shuffle-steps away from the ostovites to heal Abbo at his request.
Aster grabs Bazzle and tries to pull him off of the shesskank.
Aster drops her shield and mace to grab onto Bazzle's legs, in a desperate attempt to pull him out of Xyl's grasp. The two women begin a tug of war over the poor rogue, and are quite well matched. Xyl yells "Give him to me, you ugly rat b###+!" But Aster finally pulls Bazzle out of Xyl's arms (much to his dismay). That being said, Bazzle worms his way out of Aster's arms, eager to return to Xyl. Vandomir takes the opportunity to shoot two arrows at Xyl, but when he looks upon her, she's just too attractive. Vandomir can't bring himself to hurt the stunning succubus.
Meanwhile, Rexandi heals Abbo of his burns and scratches. He says "Thanks Rexi. Don't forget you too, yeah? You're looking pretty rough." He bashes down the skeleton, revealing the Ostovite inside.
Xyl sees Bazzle eagerly coming over to return the kiss, so she happily obliges by crouching down to Bazzle's height and kissing him. Again her wounds slowly regenerate from the lifeforce she sucks out of him.
The wall of fire continues to burn, heating Abbo beyond comfort despite how far away he's standing from it. The last skeleton steps in to fight, scratching with its claws at Abbo's armour. At the same time, the Ostovites in the back lop acid at him. Thankfully with cover from the table, Abbo is able to protect himself from all the attacks.

Bazzle keeps kissing at her.
Aster will keep trying.
Bazzle tries to continue kissing Xyl, but Aster quickly scoops him up and out of her reach.
Abbo says to Rexandi "I might... have to go through that fire."
Vandomir cannot help but keeping to try the wicked creature...

"Let me go. I need to keep her busy. I am trying to help. I need to be closer to her." Bazzle wiggles and worms trying to slip from Aster's grasp.
Bazzle wriggles his way out of Aster's grasp, but it gives Vandomir enough opportunity to shoot Xyl. Her allure is strong over him, but he manages to will himself to fire the first arrow into her side.
Since she hasn't used her own healing hex, Rexandi takes a moment to soothe her injuries with her witchy powers.
Rexandi gives herself some respite, while Abbo does something very brave, and very stupid. Turning his back on the skeleton, he faces the wall of fire. Abbo gulps down the last bit of moisture in the air, before bolting at full speed towards the flame. "Leave my friend alone!" He bellows, before being engulfed by the fire. However, Abbo pushes through, and comes out the other side of the fire with shovel in hand. Unfortunately, the shovel barely leaves a mark on Xyl, and she laughs at his ineffective heroics.
Xyl crouches down to give Bazzle yet another kiss. Meanwhile, the skeleton pushes the table aside, steps forward, and claws Rexandi once. In the back, four Ostovites lob acid at her, and even with the skeleton in the way, all four hit. She feels terribly weak, and staggers around.
Unless Xyl was to fall, the whole group was doomed, so Vandomir stayed on her with his bow...

Vandomir's first shot fails to connect, but on his second arrow, he aims it straight for the demon's heart. The arrow plunges straight through her chest, and she gasps. "You finished me off... I'll return the favour... one... day..."
Her body decomposes rapidly into a brown sludge, then sinks beneath the stone floor, all the way back to the Abyss.
Somehow, despite her condition, Rexandi completes a minor healing spell to keep herself on her feet.
"Someone help me!" she shouts.
Despite the fact that Xyl kneels Bazzle leaps on his mistress eagerly. He grabs one of her horns and wraps his legs around her. His free hand takes turns pulling at the miniscule clothing the demon wears or his own.

Bazzle screams dejectedly as the creature he is kissing melts. He falls covered in the demonic ichor that remains. After a moment of shock he starts sputtering "Oh that is what evil tastes like. Huuuuhh."
Rexandi heals herself up slightly, bracing for the incoming onslaught. These may be her final moments.
Too bad Bazzle is currently suffering from demonic ichor, what used to be a tongue, in his mouth.
Bazzle moves to his hands and knees his back dropping and arching like a cat trying to clear a hair ball. "Huuuh. Hewwwel."
"She's dead" Aster says with a relived smile, panting in disbelief. But the battle isn't over. The wererat runs through the fire to heal her friend. "I'm here"

Aster runs through the fire to save Rexandi, badly burning herself in the process. As expected, the skeleton and four Ostovites unleash their attacks upon the poor Tiefling, but thanks to both Rexandi's and Aster's healing, she survives the onslaught. That being said, as the wall of fire burns this side of the room, Aster's fur is badly singed.
"Aster, we have to get out of here, but the wall of fire will kill us if we try to pass through it again," says Rexandi.
Bazzle fires the crack off at one of the foes on the far side of the wall of fire.
