Frejia blasts at an approaching klaven, the same one Aurexil hit for confirm for extra The klaven's movement shatters it into hundreds of meaty frozen chunks.
The Bahgra start climbing towards the battle.
Meanwhile, the other klaven lurch forward, strange tongues lolling, except for the one Jaxel attacked, which returns the favor, its strikes moving at blinding speed.

Artirian, seeing AefPakka hurt by these strange klaven, regretfully orders him to go for the kill, while defending both himself and Neve. He then keeps up his defensive stance.
Jaxel puts himself between the Klaven and Neve, then begins to rip into it.
Neve blasts at the one closest to her trying to get at one that's not yet in Melee.
Aurexil growls and moves to attack another of the things.
AefPakka winces, but then sees that he's unscathed from the attack. He then tries again to strike the creature.
Unfortunately, they just stand there swinging at each other but striking nothing but air.
Fraejia focused and called up an other blast of cold. The beam of energy flew across the intervening space between herself and her chosen target.

Blood Drain (Ex)
If a {redacted} hits a living creature with its tongue attack, it drains blood, dealing 2 points of Strength damage before the tongue detaches.
Aurexil growls, too focused on battle to speak intelligibly. She takes a step back to get room for her glaive, focuses on the most injured-looking foe, and sweeps her blade around at it.
With the first claw strike, AefPakka stumbles and the second creature's slam knocks the kasatha to the ground. It's tongue then greedily drains the remaining life from him.
Karma always comes back around.
AefPakka Shantiss, four-armed alien space hippie, is dead.
Artirian grows paler as the creatures pound onto Jaxel. Then he moves south of Freya and causes a patch of grease to appear north of her.
Jaxel finishes the job he started. Or tries to.
Fraejia tried to avoid the creature that was attacking her, between her nimbleness and the freezing waters that surrounded her body like armor she managed to avoid a fair bit of it. She still took a couple of blows but nothing like she could have taken. The claw swept in and ripped into an ephemeral barrier that seemed to suck away a part of the blow with a popping sound, though it went on to slice into her skin. The creature's frustrated body slam against her after failing the rest of it's attacks on her hurt. She knew that she wasn't going to be able to do a lot of damage to it, and was distressed to see Aefpakka go down, no longer seeming to breath. She wished there was something she could do for him but she knew there wasn't, her talents weren't in the healing arts.
Turning her gaze back to the creature that had mauled her she let out a terrifying scream of hatred and lashed out with both hands. Her fingers grew shards of ice as she sliced at the creature that had just hit her twice and then stepped back to buy some breathing room.

Jaxel starts working on the remaining Klaaven.
Artirian takes out his wand and taps himself with it.
Fraejia focused and gathered in more cold energy wich she then projected out across space to rip the moisture from the air and form a thin wall of ice in front of one of their attackers in an effort to distract it from attacking anyone at the moment.
Snarling in anger at the creatures, Aurexil sweeps her glaive about, again targeting the most injured-looking foe.
Neve moves to a spot where she can target as many of the attackers as possible while avoiding as many of her allies as possible and uses her last bit of magical power to cast a Color Spray.

Aurexil growls as one of the creatures manages to claw her. She backs up, focusing on it for a moment before again bringing her glaive around to slash at this next enemy.
Jaxel moves up to the nearest Klaven and gives it a nip.
Artirian stands where he is.
Neve fires at the closet enemy
Stepping back slightly from the fighting Fraejia called forth cold energy once more and sent a blast of frigid energy at the only target she could see clearly. She still had to be careful not to hit her companions but she was determined to injure something.
Aurexil's mighty blow takes out yet another of the creatures.
The last Bahgra moves up, swinging his blade "We almost have them! Well struck, dragon."

Aurexil snarls in pain and rage. There had been too much death here. It was time to end this. She focuses on one of the final klaven and slashes it across the chest.
Aurexil strikes down yet another of the creatures, leaving only one left for the others in the party.
James works on the last one.
Arterian comes out of his cubby hole and begins to tap the fallen Barbra with his wand.
Neve fires at the closet enemy
Fraejia focused once more and sent another blast of energy at the undead thing before them. She wasn't sure if she was going to hit it or not but she certainly hoped so, it needed to go down now.
Fraejia manages to hit the creature, but it is not enough to take it down. It reacts, striking out at Aurexil once more.

Aurexil snarls again as the creature's claws tear into her thigh. She takes a quick step back and responds in kind with her glaive.
Jaxel continues to try to rip the last one to bits.
Arterian continues to tap the infernal healing wand on any downed Barbra.
The final zombified Klaven falls, leaving the hall eerily silent except for your breathing and Atirian's quiet activation words. Artirian is only able to save two of the Bahgra, using two charges to return them to consciousness.
Artiran taps Jaxel and Aurexil with his infernal healing wand. He waits until the duration of the first infernal healing has worn out, then taps Aurexil again.
He takes in the scene of devastation around him. Blood splattered all over the place. Theirs. At the bodies, both Bahgra, Aef-Pakka and the Klaven, his lips pursed into a thin line. 'These would have killed us if given a chance. I hesitated and they killed Aef-Pakka - never will I hesitate again'
"I say we kill anything that attacks us - we tried to talk to these," He gestures at Aef-Pakka and the Bahgra bodies - "And see what was the result."
'I will do what I must - when the need drives'He thinks silently to himself.
Nodding in agreement Fraejia said, [b}"Yes, if it attacks us first, kill it, unless it is defending itself from us or surrenders. Those were not going to be reasoned with and have been dealt with accordingly."[/b] She noticed the wand that Artirian was using and shuddered slightly at it's very presence. Something about those it touched, and his use of it on them, gave her the heebie jeebies and she wanted no part of it if she had any choice int he matter. She looked at everyone and said, "Come on, let's go."
"Whether it is defending itself from us or not does not matter - as long as it gets in our way, we kill it." Artirian replies.
Aurexil shudders slightly at the touch of Artirian's wand. She hated the crawly feeling it gave her, but given the evidence, she couldn't refuse the help just because she didn't like the way it felt.
"A good friend of mine would warn against rash oaths," she says at Artirian's words, "But it seems like this place won't give us much choice." She growls softly, looking over the carnage. "We'd better stay on our guard. We can't let ourselves get caught like this again. We need to stay in formation, our best fighters in front, others behind, at all times."
Neve glances at the horrific scene around her and the stench of death, especially at the four armed alien that she had not been able to understand but had seemed gentle. I just want to get out of here she says while trying to choke back a sob.
Artirian turns to Neve, speaking with determination, "We're all going to get out of here, even if it means we need to kill anyone standing in our way."
"What are your customs for dealing with the dead," He turns to the remaining Bahgra and asks respectfully."Also - do you need any more healing?"
Aurexil nods solemnly. "We'll get out of here," she states.
The Bahgra nod solemnly. They ask for one more charge each. The male speaks up "This is not the time or place for proper mourning. Our vengeance against our captors will have to suffice as a substitute, then. Once we are healed, we should get moving again, find our way free. The pack must survive."
He taps the Bahgra once each, then searches for something that can be used as a grave marker.
He lays the bodies of Aefpakka and the Bahgra respectfully on the ground, with Jaxel's help. "We vow your deaths will not be in vain - and if there is an opportunity - we will inter you in a more appropriate place. May all of you find peace and joy in your afterlives."
'They're dead. They're dead because YOU hesitated.' Artirian's inner voice berates him.
