Per the Light and Darkness blog the daylight spell negates the darkness spell, and other magical light sources fail to function. Only nonmagical light sources can light the area. So only those with darkvision can see at the moment.

Not a big deal but shouldn't the roll to determin the spell cast be Spellcraft and the DC be 15+spell level? Is it higher/different maybe because its a spell-like or supernatural ability?
Sahess grunts as the light effects fight with eachother. "Can someone dispel their darkness so a lady is able to see and destroy? I do not yet have the senses of my dragon ancestors."Two more levels... Also really wish I had the shiny rock my wizard has. She can't see well enough to enter the room and so she casts Long Arm, so that when she can see and do something, it won't be wasted. "Light a torch even, crack a sunrod, set someone on fire, I'm flexible." She seems exasperated at her lack of getting to hit things.

Greyveil is at the top of the initiative tracker and has darkvision so I believe he is up again? When his bombs hit I think the light of the fire will illuminate the room briefly, no?
As a swift action Greyveil switches his Channeled Vigor to Spirit to bolster his will and throws more bombs at the same target. Should it fall, he will switch to another target.

Spellcraft is for seeing the spell or SLA cast, which no one did, so this is instead Knowledge Arcana to identify a spell effect in place.

Greyveil's readied attack went before the enemy and changed his initiative, so yes he is up again. Got my initiative order operations backwards. I will update the tracker and resolve actions when I have a chance this morning.

How about this? Would this count as magical or non-magical light? Prismatic Crystal
Knowledge:Planes:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31
Knowledge:Arcana:1d20 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23
Crushed it on that Knowledge:Planes. Seldiliel would like to know about resistances, spell-like abilities, and special attacks, in that order.
Yes, that will work, since it is nonmagical. (Woo occult stuff!)
Greyveil's first bomb strikes the chain creature and burns it merrily! The creature keeps coming, flailing at Thoriel, managing to catch her with one cut of the sharp barbs.
Selidliel realizes they are kyton outsiders, inured against the the frozen reaches of the stars (cold immunity), but have no magic of their own (no SLAs), just a supernatural mastery of chains (dancing chains and chain armor abilities).

Bolded may take actions, Greyveil's bombs will resolve after.
According to the crystal, it increases light within 10ft by one step. So it is dim light within 10ft of Seldiliel on her turn, and darkness beyond. If it were normal light in 10 and dim for 20, then you would be able to see 20. Honestly, I am not really sure on this one.
Double (triple?) Edit: Reading through the blog comments, you are right.

Gripping the psychic crystal above her head in order to provide light in the darkness, Seldiliel clamors past the crates stacked up against the wall. Her eyes light up with a malevolent gleam and her skin takes on a sickly pink sheen as she allows her Dark Half to come out.
DarkHalf:
By allowing the dark forces to overcome you, You can enter a state of instinctual cruelty as a swift action.
While you’re manifesting your dark half, you increase the DCs of your psychic spells by 1, gain a +2 morale bonus on Will saves, and become immune to fear effects. Whenever you cast a spell that deals damage while manifesting your dark half, you can cause one creature that took damage from the spell to also take 1 point of bleed damage. The amount of bleed damage increases to 2 points at 5th level and to 1d6 points at 13th level. While manifesting your dark half, You can’t use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration other than casting spells using psychic magic, using phrenic amplifications, or attempting to return to normal. You can attempt to return to your normal self as a free action, but must succeed at a concentration check with a DC equal to 10 + your caster level. If you fail, you continue to manifest your dark half and can’t attempt to change back for 1 round.

"YOU CREAMPUFF KYTONS THINK YOU KNOW PAIN! I'LL SHOW YOU PAIN! I'M GOING TO..." Seldiliel begins to rant things at the Kytons in Infernal that are better left unrecorded.
Seldiliel casts Mind Thrust IV at the blue kyton, amplifying it with Relentless Casting.
Mind Thrust IV, Will DC 21 for 1/2:8d8 ⇒ (3, 3, 5, 4, 7, 7, 3, 1) = 33 The Kyton will start taking 2 bleed damage per round. It is also fatigued for 1 round if it fails the Will save.

Also, did that haste spell end up going off? I'm not sure, but I don't think Sahess ever moved.
Seldiliel did not exactly prepare for it, but her targets for haste were reduced suddenly. You may take your readied action to haste everyone but Thoriel and Chusynd if you wish.
The two creatures that attacked before the darkness are kytons, evil outsiders that preach pain and suffering as the holiest of virtures. One question per 5 over the DC.
Tak recalls that kytons also have an unnerving gaze as they pull familiar faces from foes subconsciousness and shift their appearances to resemble them. They have no special defenses beyond regeneration, requiring silver weapons or good aligned attacks to truly kill them.
Thoriel steps towards one of the kytons, as she attempts to magically charge up her sword into a freezing ice blade which she slashes at the kyton with multiple times in quick succession.

I was readying for Sahess to enter the room. I think that action ends up being wasted because the trigger never went off.
Thoriel's attacks force the kyton on the defensive, but glance off of the chains warding him. Greyveil's first bomb washed over the other kyton, sending it to the floor. Even in the darkness, the party can see the burns beginning to heal. Seldiliel's spell seems to match pace with its regeneration.
Short Sword on Thoriel:1d20 + 23 ⇒ (1) + 23 = 24 Short Sword on Thoriel:1d20 + 18 ⇒ (7) + 18 = 25 Short Sword on Thoriel:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14 Chain on Thoriel:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24 Chain on Thoriel:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15 Chain on Thoriel:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22 Chain on Thoriel:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22
Ooooooookay, please put these two out of their misery.

Seldiliel points at the the kyton who is still standing and cries out in Infernal, "LAY DOWN UPON THE GROUND AND ACCEPT YOUR PUNISHMENT!"
Command:Will DC 17, Down:
Drop: On its turn, the subject drops whatever it is holding. It can’t pick up any dropped item until its next turn.
I believe that I can use the Blessings of Fervor to extend this to two rounds.

Are all the bad guys decommissioned already? Is it coup de grace time? (I'm assuming that's what would happen since kytons are pretty evil)
