A doubt: ~Red- swarmed and ~Blue are swarms, or ratfolks, indeed?

Ratfolk have a unique ability called "Swarm" that allows two individuals to inhabit the same square and provide each other with a flanking bonus even though they are not on either side of the target.

"Go, Antoniollus, go!", Rimble commands his roc and they fly forward til get enough range to display another cone of clashing colors in the ratfolk's direction.

Rimble casts color spray (Will DC 18). Area of effect marked on the map.

Scoundrel Blue: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16

Well.. Way to kill the fight! lol!
Unconcious, blind, stunned: 2d4 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7

Rimble flies over the press of the melee, and lets forth another blast of rainbow light, felling all of the enemy combatants to his ever so useful spell.

Makino steps off of the stage and to the side, unleashing dragons fire from his mouth. Fire breath, 15ft cone

"That was not very nice of you!" says Ashara channelling her mystical eneries to heal her companions.

Channel Energy: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7

Channel energy, use selective channelling to avoid healing the enemy. I wanted to give Abaal's falcion human bane (should affect ratfolk the same) but I think it best if we err on the side of caution...:P Posting out of order because tomorrow will be a busy day for me and I'm unsure I'll be able to do much posting

Nemesis steps forward and holds her unholy symbol high. Suddenly there is a terrible burning chill in the air. Nemesis tries to will it away from her companions, but she has only so much power over it....

Channeling Negative Energy, excluding everyone except Ashara (since she has relatively high hit points and a high Will save).

negative energy, DC 16 Will save for half: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 5) = 8

"Nice shot, Rimble!" says Aznive as she surveys the fallout of the gnome's spell. She still has to deal with the second Tseka that stands in front of her. Aznive moves her hand to her belt as if to draw one the fighting fans tucked behind it, then suddenly lunges forward and thrusts her elbow up at the ratwoman's jaw.

--

Move action to feint, followed by an unarmed attack dealing nonlethal damage.

Bluff to feint: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12 (vs. 10+BAB+Wis, or 10+Sense Motive)

Damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Sneak damage, if feint worked: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 4) = 13

Reflex save: 1d20 ⇒ 16

Aznive calls out encouragement to Rimble, as she engages Tseka with a feint. Unfortunately, the rat-woman sees it coming, but still catches a sturdy punch on the jaw.

The rat woman tries to return the favor with her sword, aiming for Aznive, but missing once again. She curses her swing, and darts past Aznive, disappearing into the shadows of the room.
Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24
Hide in plain sight: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34

Ashara dances out of the flames, taking only some burns from the sudden conflagration, then channels healing for her friends. The fire continues for at least the entire round.. I am assuming you would like to take a five ft step after casting.

Abaal takes the full effect of the sudden flames, catching the remains of his nuns habit on fire.

Nemesis channels negative energy through the room, managing to avoid all of her friends except Ashara. All of her enemies feel the bite as the negative forces tear at their souls.

Red: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (14) - 1 = 13

Abaal: Got ya fixed.
Xavian: The creature you are attacking is currently unconscious. Do you wish it to be your target, or are you wanting to attack Marinko, who is currently the only visible threat? Your token says one thing, but your post says another..

Abaal leaps forward, right on top of the two unconscious ratfolk, so that he can swipe at Makino. His sword parts flesh, gouging a deep line in the wizard.

"Get her! The whole point of this mission was to capture that specific rat!" shouts Ashara.

Seriously, according to the map she's walking throug the walls. If so she'll probably be gone before we can catch her, which is a problem. Shout as an immediate action btw :P

She's hiding. Someone with better perception than Abaal should be looking.

"Xavian!" Abaal shouts trying not to divide attention between the wizard before him and the slightly homicidal, knife-wielding ally at his back. "The wizard!"

Abaal realizes his mistake of not hauling off an tackling the Mikino, tying his arms up and dragging the man to the floor. The caster was now angry and free to cast. Abaal, sometimes you think too much with your sword.

Shouting as an even more immediate immediate action!

Thinking as straight up cheat! ;p

Ashara: lol yea, I just tossed the icon off to the side because as Abaal said, she is currently hiding and I didn't want to place her on the map and have yall think you could just attack her. I should have warned you, sorry.

Abaal: as always, I appreciate the comedic relief!

Makino took 8 negative energy damage, too - it looks like you forgot to record that.

No, I won't attack downed enemies. Move me to the visible threat. I assume that means no full attack so add +2 to my first to-hit roll please.

Posting my action now, since the wizard's turn probably won't influence it.

Aznive looks back to see where Tseka went, as she as she slides past her. "Damn it!" Aznive sprints away from the action into the tunnel they came from, hoping to block the ratwoman's path. "Someone hold the door!"

She stands ready in the hallway, poised to attack as soon as Tseka shows herself.

Readied attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Unarmed damage, lethal: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Perception, in case it's needed: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Move action while drawing cold iron fighting fan. Standard action to ready an attack at the first hostile to come in melee range.

Xavian: Moved you.
Thank you Nemesis! Fixed.
Thank you, Aznive. I will put that in when appropriate.

Xavian moves in on Makino, slashing with his blade and drawing another red line across the mans torso as he cries out in pain.

Delay Rimble

Makino, under heavy pressure from the team, takes a step back from Abaal, then pulls a flask from his belt and drinks it. He gives a little wave as he fades from sight. Potion of Invisibility.

Aznive calls out to her companions, then rushes to block the exit tunnel. You cannot move and ready an action.. readying an action is a full round action.

Tseka darts out of the shadows and strikes at Nemesis, giving her a good slash as she then disappears back into the darkness.

5 ft step back and channel energy, use selective channelling to keep the wounded enemies out of it

Perception to see Tseka, if I'm allowed: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 But it doesn't matter.

Xavian will move to get next to where he saw Makino drink the potion and slash at the area!

Since it seems I would need to climb the stage, I'll just take the stairs to avoid any acrobatics/climb checks unless I'd need more than 20' of movement to get there.

SWISH!: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 damage: 2d4 + 7 ⇒ (1, 4) + 7 = 12

"DAMN! Rimble! Don't worry about me! When you hear, him bring the fire! Understand?!"

Rimble, who is sitting on a bird who probably has scent or at least good perception. Just sayin' ;)

Also Abaal has no idea what spells Rimble has available to him. Personally, he's hoping for fireball or black tentacles.

Oh yes, I forgot perception

Perception check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Edit: doesn't matter...

Ashara looks around scanning the room for Tseka but actually having trouble distinguish her companions from the enemy...

Ashara shrugs off a good chunk of the negative energy unleashed by Nemesis, then throws more positive energy at her comrades. Abaal and Nemesis both feel their wounds knit together and the bleeding slow to a trickle.

Abaal and Xavian both maneuver, swiping at the air and trying to locate the troublesome magic user.

First action (which is before Makino's turn).

Rimble looks at the wizard and tries to slow him down.

The sorcerer casts Daze (will DC 15).

Second action

@Abaal unfortunately, Antoniollus doesn't have scent and only +5 on Perception. In any case...

Antoniollus Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Before disappearing:
Makino Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Makino easily shrugs off Rimbles spell, laughing at the aerial attack as he drinks his potion

Rimble then repositions himself with a wall at his back, before sending out another round of Color Spray. There is no visible effect to his spell..

I think you understood it wrong. As the wizard isn't dazed, Rimble is positioning on the yellow mark (where his token is now), and he cast the color spray in the east wall - area of effect marked on the map now too.

AHHH... I see said the blind man..
Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
He shakes it off anyways..

I think you reroll the ability damage every round.

Fortitude save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Nemesis screams under the pain of the poison, and retaliates with her goddess's wrath!

Channeling negative energy, excluding all allies but Aznive...who appears to be safe from it anyway.

negative energy, DC 16 Will save for half: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 3) = 8

GM, I'm pretty sure that ready is a standard action. (Link). Are you confusing it with delay, perhaps?

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

Aznive keeps up her vigilance, but fails to to spot Tseka. She stays ready to strike, if Tseka shows herself. "Anyone have eyes on her?" Please everyone roll Perception checks, someone is bound to get lucky.

Readied attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Nemesis: We can do that too.
Tseka Wil: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Makino Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Nemesis feels the poison burn through her body, but luckily, her strength comes from the gods, not her muscles. She lets forth another blast of unholy energy. The scoundrels and fake Tseka on the ground immediately succumb to the wounds and pass on from this world. Tseka takes the full brunt of the energy as well, but Makino shakes most of it off.

Aznive, no I wasn't confusing it with anything, I was just reading message board convos about readied actions that were written in 2006 and failed to crosscheck everything with current PRD. They really REALLY should do something about that...
Aznive once again readies her fighting fan, peering through the flickering shadows for the elusive rat woman.

I just wanted to point out how Ashara also healed herself when channelling so she should have most of her hp intact. But this allowed me to spot a mistake on her character sheet: I wrote 23 hp when she should have 24 (10 hp at fist lvl + 7 hp at 2nd + 7hp at 3rd). Btw I wanted to note how people claim channel energy isn't good... I think this situation shows how that's not true given the right set up

Rimble flies close to the northwest door, trying to impede Tseka from leave the room.

Readied action: Antoniollus' bite if somebody gets close. bite: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 81d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 - or not.

Rimble Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

"Sorcerer! Can you even the odds? Creat smoke, or darkness, or cast an arcane net upon the place? How about you priestess?"

My apologies. Between travelling for my wifes dr appointments on monday and getting home late last night after bouncing all over the city of Indianapolis, things have been hectic.

Ashara, Thank you for pointing out my error there.

Rimble flies near the door, hoping to head off the hidden rat, while Abaal shouts suggestions.

Makino suddenly becomes visible, his hands reaching out and pointed at Abaal and Xavian. The reason for his maniacal grin becomes evident though, as a cone of fire flashes out from his finger tips. Burning hands

"Gah!" Frustrated by her own lack of action, Aznive draws a flask of alchemist's fire. She's still wary of a potential attack on herself, but now readies to throw the flask whenever Tseka shows herself.

Readied attack with flask of alchemist fire on Tseka, if she shows herself. I'll go for a direct hit. Please add modifier for range and such, depending on the situation.

As a lvl 3 oracle Ashara doesn't have lesser restoration yet, is there someone who can help her with ability damage?

Meanwhile Ashara moves near Abaal and casts a spell to heal him.

CLW: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

As a lvl 3 oracle Ashara doesn't have lesser restoration yet, is there someone who can help her with ability damage?

Yeah, me. I've got one prepared, (because who goes into an underground black market on a cloak-and-dagger assignment and doesn't expect poison?) and I mean to use it in a round or two.

The poison courses through Nemesis, stealing her strength. She returns the favor though, lashing out with more of her dark power. As the wave rolls almost visibly over both of her enemies, Makino gives out a cry and falls to the ground.

Xavian will go toward where the enemy has been coming into sight and also ready an attack. I think I moved to the right spot, not sure.
