"Agreed," Ziva gives Astrid a grateful nod and glances back over her shoulder in the direction of the casting. "Let them come to us."

OK, looks like some agreement in discussion to back off and go to the feast hall.
Two lamias float casually in the air back the way you came, each one a gaunt woman in leather armor from the waist up, and a pale grey serpent from the waist down. Both carry gleaming falchions, which they appear to be handling with ease, and each one is surrounded by a group of mirror images. One smiles calmly as she spots your group, while the other sneers haughtily. Their motions have a magical quickness to them.

Prefer to go after Kellek so I'm not in the way of whatever magic he might choose to deploy.
"Kellek, if you've got something to strip away their magic, now's the time," Ziva warns, as five wings of golden light erupt from her back. With a shout, the Lastwall knight launches herself through the air, poised to cut into the nearest of the lamia.

Kellek Zaderan |
Kellek gives the warrior the I'll be the judge of that look, and evaluates his choices. He could dispel one of the lamia's mirrored images, but lamia's are competent spellcasters, which of course means his other option might not work either. Still that other option has more up-side... if only it had the range.
Kellek floats over Guiness's head and begins growing misty eyed, and misty goateed, and misty everything everything quite honestly.
Kellek casts obscuring mist, hopefully before Ziva throws herself at the enemy.
GM Cellion |
Kellek's obscuring mist bursts into existence, hiding the party from the lamia and the lamia from the party.
Ziva mentioned that she'd like to reassess her action in light of that spell, so I'll hold off on updating until she has a chance to do so.

”Shall we back off to the other side of your cloud and heal while their spells expire?” suggests Guiness quietly to the mage just above him. If Kellek moves with him, he will back off a double move and draw a healing potion from his bandolier as he goes.
Kellek Zaderan |
"Their multiple images will be with them for a while yet. Too long, but we might better prepare ourselves." Kellek whispers back.
He floats back along the northern cave face, and readies to cast his fear spell over Colvyn's head the moment he sees the first lamia emerge from the cloud.
Ziva Vilcek |
Ziva plunges back into the thick mists, feeling her way along to the side-chamber in the hopes of outflanking the lamia if they pursue the party into Kellek's fog bank.

Grunting to herself as the hiss of arrows and clash of steel is muffled by the fog and distorted by the echoing caverns, Ziva commits herself and plunges back in to the swirling mist, fiery wings carrying her into the air. After a few disorienting feet she spies the lamia's silouette looming in the fog and zeroes in, golden blade raised high.

The pixies send a volley of tiny arrows at the yellow lamia, but most are wildly off their mark. Only the green pixie lands its attack, and that tiny arrow doesn't do anything except shatter one image.
The yellow lamia floats forth, emerging more fully from the mist to reveal the falchion she wields in both hands is wreathed in oozing black energy. She spies Colvyn and grins cruelly. Her blade falls upon him twice, each slash accompanied by a blast of unholy energy. The first slash delivers a devastating wound, but it's the second that severs his head from his neck. (Dealing 29 and then 40 damage on a crit, outright slaying Colvyn) As he falls in a spray of blood, the lamia turns to deliver the last slash at Guiness. It proves a slower strike and Guiness is able to block it.
Ziva hears the red lamia's gleeful laughter before she sees her. A second unholy falchion falls out of the mist, accompanied by the lamia a moment later. The blow lands with the weight of the executioner's axe, smashing through Ziva's attempt to deflect it. (Vital strike crit dealing 55 dmg)

"Forgive me, my brave friends," Ziva whispers as she fights through the pain of the second lamia's devastating attack. Fading back into the concealing mists, the knight flexes her burning wings and shoots out into the open air of the central cavern-shaft, before juking towards the walkway and, hopefully, a temporary respite.
Withdraw action; if Red follows me I'll be in a lot of trouble but it should let you kill Yellow more easily.
Colvyn "Slick" Dashtail |
No choice, I have to retreat for now. Colvyn uses his ability to cast spells in a fraction of a second and grant himself wings made of fire. He then flies away without standing, moving as far away as he can.
Casting shield of wings with Fervor as a free action, then double move away. I think this shoudn't declare any attack of opportunity.
GM Cellion |
You can definitely withdraw while flying, and free action casting doesn't provoke, so you're in the clear Colvyn. I've moved you westward so that you still have line of sight of the fight, but are more than one move action away.

Back inside, the red lamia floats through the mist in search of her escaped prey and instead stumbles across Guiness. The two lamia share a quick glance before they each swing in. The yellow lamia plunges the black wreathed falchion into Guiness' side (Crit for 47 dmg after DR), then pulls the blade out violently and slashes twice more. Her second attack Guiness only barely manages to deflect, but her third crashes through his normally impregnable defenses. (31 dmg after DR). Red swings in with the intention of delivering the finishing blow, but a last-moment deflection with his shield lets Guiness pull though. (Haste and defensive stance doing work.)

Just as soon as Colvyn is out of danger, Astrid has to turn her attention to rescuing Guinness from certain death. Before the lamias can finish him off, Astrid reaches a hand out, yanking the dwarf through a tiny hole in reality and dropping him someplace else. She follows that with a pair of commands to her summoned pixies, the stress dropping her into her native Hallit.
"You two, at the front! Prepare to hold the line. Ziva will be coming back soon, I know it. You, in the back, do something about that illusion."
Finally, almost as an afterthought, she scoops up Colvyn's longbow and retreats a step, hoping the pixies actually can hold their ground.

So! Using Heaven's Leap to teleport Guinness out of the lamias' reach. Guinness, place yourself within 30 feet of my token's current position. Then, I'm commanding one of the pixies (Green) to use their dispel magic SLA against the red lamia's mirror image, while the other two (Red and Blue) use their shield SLAs to bring their AC to 22. Then a move action to pick up Colvyn's bow and a 5-foot step to stand beneath Kellek.
I didn't move my token because I don't want to cover up Kellek's.

Guiness assaults the yellow lamia, with dragonfist clashing with her falchion over and over. Though the lamia blocks or dodges most of his attacks, he lands one solid blow. As Astrid whisks Guiness to safety, you can see the lamia is seriously injured, bones cracked and broken in a few places and breathing heavily. Astrid's pixies break the magical mirror images surrounding red and shield themselves.
Ziva, Kellek and Colvyn still up.

Colvyn pulls his back up bow. He looks over the battle and then back at the bow. No choice, got to use this one even if I'm not ready. He increase his dexterity with magic to compensate for the harder pull from the string. He sends a single arrow at the Lamia that took his head just a moment ago.

Ziva Vilcek |
"Hello, boys," Ziva greets the bears with a finger to her lips in a shushing gesture, then raises her sword to look for a way to loop around and rejoin her companions. Not seeing any egress points, she sighs and turns back to the mist she'd just emerged from.
"General of Vengeance, I consign my soul to your care. I will do what must be done in Your blessed name, whatever the cost." Suppressing the light on her blade, she wings quietly and carefully over to mouth of the cave where the sounds of fighting can still be heard.
I will likely get only one strike, so I must make it count.
Half-speed move and a Stealth check, trying to set up a rush or sneak attack next turn.

Two of the pixies suffer more significantly, but the rest of you endure the wave with minimal harm (12 dmg to two pixies, 6 dmg to everyone else) The lamia backs off into the mist, disappearing.

Astrid Olvirsdottir |
With an effort of will, Astrid restrains herself from hurling taunts and curses at the lamia's retreating back. Better not to press our luck any further. Instead, she reaches a healing hand out to Guinness.

The two pixies at the front, who bore the brunt of the lamia's parting attack, take their payback on her fallen sister with two carefully aimed arrows. The remaining one also casts a protective spell in case she comes back.

Ziva Vilcek |
Straining to hear what's happening in the fog ahead, Ziva notices the lull in the noise of combat ahead, but also the snuffling of the bears behind her. Realizing that staying put is untenable, the knight dives into the fog, warily searching for the lamias' shapes in the mist. She's a bit surprised when she pops out the other side without seeing them, though she grunts in satisfaction when she sees the first one fallen.
"They've got cave bears, big ones. They might not follow me, but I don't know that for sure. We should move on," Ziva says a bit haltingly, teeth gritted against the pain of her injuries.
Double Move
Astrid Olvirsdottir |
"Ah, bears, of course," Astrid says with a bitter laugh, "why not? Welcome back, by the way."

Guiness, Kellek and Colvyn still up!
Brother_Guiness |
Maintaining his connection to the earth at least for now, Guiness nods his thanks to Astrid for the healing and says, "I will hold here for the moment if we want to withdraw. If any foe comes out of the fog, I will give it pause and cover our retreat."
Readied action to Strike if a foe comes up to him: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (19) + 17 = 36
Damage: 1d8 + 1d8 + 17 ⇒ (2) + (5) + 17 = 24
Colvyn "Slick" Dashtail |
Colvyn uses the break in the fight to heal some off his wounds. He keeps his eyes on the fog, expecting the ennemy to come back at them at any moment.
