Egryzon let out a growling chuckle as the barroom erupted into combat. This would make his duty much easier, as a life spent fighting in winding, subterranean passages acclimated him to such crowded conditions; all he had to do was escort the guardian away from the fight, and his power would be unharmed! Egryzon had just one bit of unfinished business to which to attend first, though: if the kobold has his way, the slaver will not survive the night.
Clambering onto a table for a better perspective of the fight, Egryzon flicks his gaze across the room as the temperature of the air around his hands plunges to a bitter cold. He notices the thug locked in combat with a ferocious drow, and, when the slaver's form is finally unobstructed by that of the man's enemy, the kobold gestures dramatically and fires a beam of utter cold at the ruffian.
Move Action: If necessary, move within 30 ft. of the slaver.

cold
The blast of ice strikes him in the chest, despite the cold he focus' on The Drow in front of him, he jumps at her attempting to initiate a grapple.
Marla's feet practically glide across the ground as she spins and moves into a better position to strike. In her wake, a disorienting shadow follows, laughing at anyone's attempt to keep track of her. From her new position she unleashes a mighty swing with a violent roar. A yell filled with such wrath that it feels like it could freezes blood.

Eleanor smiles. This fight is definitely going in her favor, as it seems the rush of people fighting the slaver has frightened any of his would-be allies. The man has been pretty predictable so far, but now seeing that he's surrounded, the man leaps at Eleanor in a last-ditch effort to take down someone with himself. The slaver forces his meaty hands around her neck, and the wood planks beneath them creak as the both of them sprawl onto the floor. Eleanor bares her teeth, snarling as she trys in vain to push him off of her.
Seeing the man trying to strangle one of the people that had sprung to her defense, Audria grabs the first heavy and blunt object she could find, a chair, then promptly overbalances as she tries to brain the man with it.
Phaelanna sees the others attacking. This sot would not fair well if he continued and yet he decided to grapple. With a smile Phaelanna stepped forward and lashed out with her hair.
This man has become increasingly tiresome. He must have thought he would have the upper hand, as Eleanor was a woman, but Eleanor was no ordinary woman; She was drow. Instead of focusing on the slaver's hands on her neck, Ele knees him in the groin, and then grasps at the man's own neck and squeezes, her fingers digging in and leaving visible marks.

Harbaestus simply holds for now. He isn't actually understanding the situation at all - as far as he can see, it looks like a bunch of people grouping against a slaver. All the drow could focus at the moment was on the guardian.
A glimmer of confusion appeared in Egryzon's eyes; normally, when he unleashed the powers of his "true form," the target of his ire fell in no time. This man was quickly becoming a nuisance, but Egryzon was experienced in dealing with those. Favoring overwhelming force and somewhat slow to adjust his tactics, Egryzon thus quickly and wildly fired another ray of cold at the slaver.
touch
cold
As soon as the man grabs Eleanor he rolls avoid many attacks, but one catches him and his eyes fill with rage. He lets go of Eleanor and goes to attack Marla. Meanwhile chaos ensues and many people are falling and looting is happening.
As the man goes for Marla, Audria tries to hit him with the chair again, only to have worse luck than the last time.
Eleanor continues her onslaught on the man, trying to get him away from Marla, while continually being wary of the hands that were moments before clasped about her throat.
Full round attack action using claws and unarmed strike. I'll take a -5 on attack rolls with the claws due to the unarmed strike, and then an additional -4 due to dealing nonlethal.

Phaelanna growls and lets her hair lash out again
Marla deflects the pathetic attack and sneers in contempt. "Weak," she says. She rotates around the battlefield once again to strike from a new position. Pure malice engulfs her blade. She strikes low to leave a grievous wound and prevent escape.
Move: Acro 10ft around him.
Swift: Claim should have worn off so Claim again and recover Relentless Warden's Strike.

Amidst the chaos of his surroundings, Egryzon came to a surprising realization: he had forgotten to fully exploit his military tactics. Although his enemy was already outnumbered, Egryzon had been taught to overwhelm his opponents past the point seen in this battle. To remedy this issue, Egryzon inched closer to the slaver, performed arcane gestures, and pointed each hand to different spots in the empty air near the slaver, causing harsh light to emit from the designated locations.
"Birds of the light! Kill him!" the kobold screams.

As the light fades, two silver eagles can be seen in the formerly illuminated locations. Screeching fiercely, the birds dive at the slaver, tearing into him with a flurry of slashing attacks.
