Hounds gets out of the way of the front of the door

Stealth: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

Mysty moves opposite rose, attempting to not noticed, until she wants.

stealth: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34

Mysty looks at hound and messages all.
We need to get them in here where we have the advantage. Insult them big man. Tell them what we have done and what we will do. Get them mad, so they attack in fury. And they will die in fury.

She hesitates a second and adds oh, don't be too specific about our plans. Just that we want to destroy their town and friends.

Watch out then.

Hound grabs the commander's head and opens the door, using it for cover. You see this! This is what we will do to your captain Samual and high priest Donnagin! We are going to make them scream in here, cut off their limbs so they can watch us burn your fort and town! They are going to die last knowing Mitra abandoned them!

Sorry, work has sucked lately and hasn't given me much time to post.

Nahia, seeing at least a brief moment of respite, takes the time to head towards Rose, the ruby tipped wand once again dancing in the air. As she does so she whispers "Seren, Does your wand still have charges? Hound might need it."

Moving and using the wand of Infernal Healing on Rose [4 charges left]

"huh? What? Oh right. Nahia, how do we always seem to get stuck with companions that can't seem to dodge?" seren chuckles, pulling the wand from her belt.

"hound lovely healing magic incoming!"

Action-

For some moment, the noise dies outside, as the door suddenly burst open, a poor guard exposing himself to Rose and Mysty You have you read action.

The other guards, you see now, formed a human wall, preventing anyone to pass, holding they shields alongside one another.

There's more to the enemy actions, but I want to know how you'll react to this. You can all consider you have a 'ready' action against then.

Hound holds

Nahia Round 5 - Readied

Seeing the door fling open, Nahia quickly turns, takes a step, and begins to sway her hips and arms in a rhythmic dance, cooing Aklo: ”Ancient light, rise and revive!” A tinkling sound, like a glass shattering, occurs as motes of light rise from the ground in blinding streaks, the motes covering everyone in the burst.

In the chaos of the dust Nahia whispers to her companions "If you want to rush out amongst them, now might be the best time."

5' step and casting Glitterdust. 10’ radius spread in the red circle I added to the map.

All creatures are outlined in dust, taking a -40 to stealth checks for 5 rounds and negating invisibility. Also, they must each make a will save (DC 15) or be blinded. Each round they can try their will save again, until they make it (negating the blindness) or 5 rounds passes.

Hound holds.

With a deadly and coordinated attack, Rose and Mysty dispatch the guard that opened the door.

Seren command one of his fellows to attack his friends Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 but he is able to resist it.

Nahia cover the area in magical dust, blinding and revealing one more person, that was probably invisible.
Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 and Will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19 blinding the guards, and revealing the hidden threat.

The hidden threat don't stay hidden for long, as he appears, his skin coated in shinning dust, but with a glint of stone beneath it. His hands holding a wand, pointed at your direction as a ball of fire explodes inside the tower.

Firebal DC 22: 8d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 2, 5, 4) = 25

Action-

Rose, Mysty, Seren and Nahia, you are up.

reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Rose rolled behind the open door to protect herself from the firey blast.

dont have time to check the map and decide on an action but I wanted to get that save out of the way.

reflex: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

Mysty looks up as the fireball roars in.
reflex: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26

?? Who is necro all star?

--Nahia Round 6--

Reflex Save vs Fireball: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 Holy Carp a 1!

Nahia sees the bead streak from the mage's wand, her mind stunned in the brief moments before its sudden explosion. The fire washes over her as she staggers back against the stone wall, her clothes now singed and tattered, the smell of burnt hair surrounding her, smoke wafting from her body. She gasps in pain and the sudden rush of hot air into her lungs sends her coughing.

Her hands clutching at her face, she manages to bark to her companions "Kill the $@&%ing Mage! Now!"

Still clutching herself, reeling from the attack, Nahia's mind reactively lashes out at the Magister, trying to overwhelm him like she has so many of his brethren.

Slumber hex on the magister, DC 15 will or fall asleep for 5 rounds.

Are the Skeletons still alive, or did the blast kill them?

Rose was moving as soon as Nahia called out the order.
"Behind me!" she said to Mysty. "I'll cover you."

She rushed forward with her shield high, trying to ward off blows from the soldiers and rush the Magister.

Now that Hound has taken out that middle soldier it looks like I have a charge lane if I go from where I was to just off center of the magister. I'm taking a risk sucking up the AoOs for whoever wants to follow, but I can't see another way of making this work. I can attack defensively to boost my AC back up. Maybe I'll get lucky.

Charge, Attacking Defensively: 1d20 + 8 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 8 + 2 - 4 = 18
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

AC during charge is 19

You shouldn't need to worry about AoO's, since the soldiers are blind, at least for this round.

Forgot about that! Whew!

Since that's the case, I'd like to drop the Defensive penalty from my attack, please.

The fire explodes in the party, Rose and Mysty being able to escape the worst of it. Nahia on the other hand was not so fortunate.
Using the fact the guards were blind, Rose charges, her mace hold high as she strikes the mage. Her attack however had no effect, as the stone-like mage skin absorbed the attack.

Nahia, desperate, try her well know and used trick against the mage, urging him to sleep.
Will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 but once again, it seems to have no effect the old man.

waiting for Mysty and Seren to continue.

Mysty runs through the blinded guards to flank the mage.

we have to gut this mage quickly she messages.

double move

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Seren gets caught with the full blast of the fireball, feeling her hair singe as the flames eat away at it.

"Oh! well that makes things interesting." She replies chuckling.

"Let's see how well you handle our magic."

Cast Cause Fear on magister. DC 17. move forward until in range.

Mysty moves forward while exposing her desperation to all others. The mage must die.

Seren laughs hysterical laugh as the fire burn her already damage skin, and hair. But it doesn’t stop her from conjuring fear into the mage’s mind.

... Her power however does take grip on the mage's mind! He is too strong to be affected by those simple tricks! He has more than 5 hd.

Base BaB +5
Weapons in hand:Greatsword +1
Rage 5/15
Current effects:Enlarge 49/50,Infernal Healing 6/10,Rage 5/15

Feeling his body begin to warp as the enlarging magic starts to end, Hound takes the opportunity to, drop his greatsword(free) and lash out with his claws at Soldier 11, if that soldier falls with the first attack, his second swipe will be at Soldier 6

Enlarged claws #1: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 151d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Enlarged claws #2: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 251d8 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Hound lash at the blind soldier, dropping it and with one powerful attack. Using his momentum, he attacks another and hits, but the soldier is still standing.

==//==

Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
The guards, blind and scared, don't offer any real danger for you.

==//==

Mad Martin, laughs in a scarier way than Seren as he says ”Burn!”

Concentration: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24 x DC 21

Fireball DC 22: 7d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 3, 3, 5, 3, 4) = 26 Targets: Rose, Mysty and the mage

The flame explodes around Rose and Mysty and Martin, engulfing everyone in mayhem of destruction.
Surprisingly, the mage laughed the whole time, and don’t seem to be affected by it.

Rose, Nahia, Seren, Mysty you are up.

Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Down and out either way. Thanks for inviting me

not certain if I strike before the mage or not by the initiative as mad martin is not mentioned, but hopefully mysty is first. Otherwise the attack falls after the fireball, assuming she is functional.

Mysty strikes at the mage
rapier: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12
rapier damage: 1d4 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + (6, 2) = 12

dagger: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29
dagger damage: 1d3 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + (6, 2) = 10

reflex: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25

Rose, grapple him. Stop him casting Mysty messages.

--Nahia Round 7--

Nahia, finally recovering from the flames, looked about.

Hound was hit too. This is bad... real bad. As the only thing between me and those troops, I need to keep him alive... As much as I'd rather focus on myself, I'll be dead if he falls and they recover.

Nahia, still grimacing from her wounds, begins gesturing with a hand, chanting Aklo: ”Spirits that float in the wind of life, please, come and grant him your blessed energy...” Green pinpoints of light start to dance and collect around her outstretched hand, swirling in wind currents that are twirling around her form. The winds and lights follow as she brings her hand to Hound, and upon her touch the wind and swirling lights transfer to him, lightly whipping his hair and clothes, before the green lights start to enter his body and fade, soothing his pain and beginning to close his wounds.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 Of course. Another 1...

Doing what she can, Nahia turns to Seren and whispers, ”Quick toss me your wand. There isn’t much else I can do here...”

Casting cure light wounds. Again, not sure how handing something off should work, but I still have a move action left and I go before Seren.

Good idea Mysty.

Rose drops the lord's sword and reaches out to grab the wizard.

Grapple (provokes an AoO if the wizard is armed with a melee weapon), flanking: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 2 = 19

Edit: Forgot to include the save
Reflex Save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21

Halved minus 6 for fire resist is 7 damage total.

Seren shrugs as Nahia asks for the wand. "Fighter's always dying on us...". She reaches down and pulls the wand from her belt, handing it over to Nahia.

Move action retrive, free action drop 5 ft away into Nahia's waiting hand.

She mutters under her breath, a transparent shield shimmering into existance around her.

Cast Protection from Evil on Myself. I think that leaves me with all my spells for the day exhausted. Time to wade into Combat!!!

Mysty dodge the spell and uses the opportunity to attack again, her first attack don't offer any real danger, and the second one stops at the stone protection of the mage.

Rose drops her sword and get a hold in the old man, but not before being burned by his spell.

Nahia heals Hound and take the wand from Seren

Seren cast a magic protection on herself, passing the wand to Nahia, as she prepares to wade into combat.

Hound, you are up.

HP 23/62 (32/72 from rage)
AC 14 (AC 12 due to Enlarge, 10 from rage)
Base BaB +5
Weapons in hand:Rage claws
Rage 5/15
Current effects:Enlarge 50/50,Infernal Healing 7/10,Rage 5/15

Hounds squeezes out the door, lashing out with his claws at soldiers 9 in order to clear the way to the made.
Rage claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 291d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7 If the soldier goes down, he will redirect at soldier 7
Rage claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 181d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Mysty changes tactics, and attempts to rip the wand from the wizards hand.

disarm attempt: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

and fails miserably.

get his wand!

Just realized I mistook the DC 21 Concentration check the magister made for the DC of the fireball. Looks like I took more damage from that than I thought. Ouch.

Fire was usually Rose's ally. She knew better than to ignore it completely but didn't shy from it. This time that lack of instinctive fear had cost her. She realized a few moments after the blast that the Magister's explosion had really hurt. Her armor was uncomfortably hot and everywhere the metal had worn through her arming doublet her skin was being held to a hot iron. The small areas of exposed skin were burned badly. She could smell her own cooked skin.

Her stomach rumbled at the cloying scent of charred meat. Behind her faceplate she couldn't help but have a momentary lapse in concentration while she began to wrap her arms around the wizard in a chokehold. I smell kind of delicious.

Who's action are we on?

Oh god, don't start nibbling yourself.

Though Grumblejack may want to have a word with you...

With two powerful and swift attacks, hound drop two more guards.

==//==

Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
Finally shrugging off the spell that left him blind, the soldier returns, only to see all his buddies dead or dying and the mage grappled.
He pick up his sword, and attack Hound.

Atk: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Dmg: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

But his conviction is crumbling, and even tho he hits, the attack is almost wasted.

==//==

The mage, grappled don’t try to free himself, what he does again is yell ”BURN!” as he flicks his wand another ball of fire explore hitting him, Rose and Mysty again.

Fireball DC 14: 5d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 4, 3, 1) = 14

==//==

Mysty tries to lashes at the wand in the wizard hand, forcing him to drop it.

Nahia, Seren, Rose you are up. Mysty already acted out of her initiative order.
