The cultists you've run into so far have been those of Baphomet. They operate under the 'Temple of the Ivory Labyrinth', and are infamous for infiltration and corruption.
There is a gathering of grayish-red smoke, and with a loud CRACK! a huge fiery-red beetle appears and attacks Anevia! It's pincers saw into her broken leg, causing her to fall prone on the floor with a cry.
Farasha swears as the demonic-looking thing appears in their midst, a quick mental inventory leaving her with no other option, she opens fire with her bow, fervently wishing she had better ammunition for such occasions.
Farasha's first shot nicks the beetle, barely scratching it. The second bounces off of its chitinous shell.
Anevia tries desperately to fend off the creature with her hands, but with a broken leg, it is a futile effort. Once again, the mandibles grab and tear at her, gashing her arms.
Moving in to attack Bollwerk slashes at the beetle.
Kazul moves in to B5 and slashes at the beetle.
Kazul the Destroyer misses with the Falchion of Instant Death. Fabian activates his Ward ability.
Fabian holds up his staff, speaks an arcane word, and activates his Protective Ward. An almost-invisible pulse of energy radiates out from him to a radius of ten feet.
Farasha inventories her spells momentarily, but finds nothing of use against so large a foe, so continues firing arrows at the beast.
[dice=LCrossbow]1d20+4; 1d8
Sjurd tries another shot with his crossbow and misses. Very badly.
Farasha's arrow pierces the creature, killing it.
No sooner does it die, than another swirling mist coalesces into a second beetle! This one goes straight for Anevia as well, grabbing her bad leg in its mandibles. She screams in agony as it drags at the broken limb.
Fabian takes a step back from the beetle (to square E3). He holds out his staff and speaks some arcane words. An icy ray leaps from his staff in the general direction of the beetle.... However, the ray misses the creature and merely leaves a spot of cold on the ground.
Fabian does wonder about the beetle coalescing from the mist; does he recognize a spell or a magical effect in progress?
Moving slowly around the chair Bollwerk walks next to Anevia,putting his hand to her and healing her.
Kazul leaps to the table top and hacks the beetle in two. As the pieces settle, Bollwerk's healing brings a pained smile to Anevia's face.
"Th-thank you." Anevia says heavily. "I don't know where..."
"YOU'LL DIE, AND YOUR WIFE WILL FIND YOUR CORPSE IN BED WAITING FOR HER!" screams a voice. A half-orc, dressed red armor, appears out of nowhere in the open doorway. He slashes at the prone Anevia with a wicked-looking ranseur. The blade pierces her side, and she falls unconscious, bleeding profusely from the wound.
"AHAHAHAHAAAA!" the half-orc laughs maniacally, and raises the ranseur to finish her...
Getting really very angry and seeing the poor Anevia hit again Bollwerk moves in to attack the orc.
"Farasha can you channel?"
With Bollwerk moving to create space, Farashs dashes across the room to Anevia, a prayer already on her lips.
2nd - Remove Paralysis(d),
1st - Remove Fear(d), Bless, Protection from Evil, (open)
Bollwerk slips on Anevia's unconscious form, tumbling forward into the half-orc.
Happens !
Moving over chairs, Fabian circles around behind Farasha, and activates his protective ward.
Sjurd's stab with his spear goes awry, lodging the point deep within the wood of the door frame.
And also why does sjurd stroke goes awol, if he rolled a 20 first.
Sjurd stabs the orc, causing him to grunt in pain. He stays focused on Anevia though, his rage driving him on.
Kazul moves to C3 and attacks!
The half-orc steps back and mutters the words to a spell...
A vivid cone of clashing colors springs from his hand, washing over everyone in the doorway and Farasha.
Anevia swoons under the spell and drops unconscious.
Falling completly to the floor Bollwerk succumbs to the spell.
Farasha feels the arcane energies wash over her, sliding away as though deflected by her belief.
No more of that thank you she whispers, half-smiling as she places a single finger to her lips
Shhhhhh.....
2nd - Remove Paralysis(d),
1st - Remove Fear(d), Bless, Protection from Evil, (open)
Shielding his eyes from the colors in time, Kazul steps toward the half-orc and swings his falchion with all his might!

Farasha feels the arcane energies wash over her, sliding away as though deflected by her belief.
No more of that thank you she whispers, half-smiling as she places a single finger to her lips
Shhhhhh.....
** spoiler omitted **
Finding himself in the radius of a silence spell, Fabian does not cast anything. He stays put, so that his protective ward will continue to help protect his friends.
Kazul's swing strikes an invisible field of force, stopping just short of the sorceror's head.
The half-orc grins in the silence as he begins to cast a spell...a ray of fire stretches from his hand to strike Kazul in the chest.
Taking full advantage of the magical silence to utter a few choice curse words that their enemy could somehow still cast spells despite her best efforts, Farasha shrugs and goes back to basics, aiming carefully to try and turn the half-orc in to a pincushion.
Kazul's screams of pain thankfully cannot be heard due to the silence. He moves to C1 now and attacks the mage again!
The half-orc sorceror twists and ducks, laughing silently as he dodges arrows while his magical armor turns aside falchion blows. His mirth is cut short as Kazul's second attack cuts him deeply.
Fabian climbs over the table and begins dragging the injured Aenevia away from the door and out of the line of combat.
