Teon, we've been keeping mechanical descriptions in ooc text. It makes the Gameplay thread nice and pretty.
Those round summaries Mark does every once in a while have been the only notable exception.

Round 1
So next should be Cain opening the door for one snake then closing it (need a CMB roll against the other snakes, just 1 roll). Then Teon's Readied action (which will have an AoO). If you both want to make your rolls, I'll do Grumblejacks then, and resolve them. Unless someone's gonna change something up.
King Markadian V |
As the door is opened, one of the Cobra's come charging out. Cain manages to shut the door as it does, trapping the other two inside. The one cobra attempts to charge at Cain, but Teon intervenes, grabbing the snake behind it's metallic hood, firmly in grasp. Writhing about, Grumblejack reachs in to help brace, but a narrow miss from a bite sends him pulling back. The snake, while grappled, is still not ready for the sack held by Price.
Grumblejack failed his pin roll.

Who is up in the order? I'm assuming, based on the map positioning, that Price can't get off an attack unless it is a spell and even that may be prevented by Grumblejack blocking LOS. If that's correct - feel free to leave Price with her Ready Action to bag the snake once pinned.
Price |
It seems to be a pretty typical way of ruling - that RTA is subject to FIM - based on my quick search. I'm fine with that. I'm just probably mistaking it with 3.5 or some house rule that is giving me brain clutter... I'll go with the Ready Action - Tag'it & Bag'it.
Xanos |
Would Aid Another actions help anywhere? I'm not able to post much right now, so I might as well try to give bonuses to others. Xanos is smart enough to figure out who needs it most, so whoever wants the help, just take it.
King Markadian V |
The two cobras inside the room can be heard beating against the doorway with all their strength, thought to little effect. The third in the hall with you lashes out, attempting to get at the fused form of Fargo/Teon, though in it's position it has little reach to do so.
By the way, I re-read the grapple rules. Grumblejack cannot actually pin the cobras, only Teon can. Grumblejack can aid him do it though, as can Cain in this circumstance. Only the primary Grappler can make checks, others can only Aid Another. GJ did assist though, so if Teon wants to make that check to pin, he can with +2 from GJ.

To get the next one, as before. Cain needs to make a CMB roll to close the door on the next snake. Teon will need to make two CMB rolls (1 to grapple, 1 to pin). Grumblejack successfully assisted on both, so add +2. Cain can assist on the second roll if he wants to make a second check.

Round 4
Cain opens the door, easily closing it after allowing the second snake entrance. In fact, too easy, for the snake leaps through the doorway, firmly clasping onto Teon's neck, venom injecting deep into the summoner's fused necking. Teon, I need a Fort save, please. Also take 3 damage from the non-confirmed crit. Fortunately before the bite sinks in too deep, Grumblejack grabs the tail of the snake, pulling it free with only minimal ripping of Teon's fleshy neck.

Cain, the beast! |
The wolf-man watches the big demon-man deal with the bite. With two of the snake-things bagged, holding the door closed is taking less of his focus.
His canine lips peel back in what you suppose is a wolfsh grin… mostly a flashing of teeth. And his words are crude and clumsy, spoken through anatomy not designed for the common tongue. "Want me to wait a bit to let the third through?"
If Teon indicates he should wait, he'll wait. Otherwise…
The wolf-man lets the weight of the third snake slam the door open, readying an attempt to help Teon's grab when the time comes.

Round 7 Summary
The snake leaps forward, in imitation of it's former and now enbagulated companion. The eerie similarity is enough for Teon to dodge the attack, though it's twist was of a different variety, going left instead of right. Teon misses the snake.

We've all done that.
And the third snake has become trapped, engabulated as the others. At present the sacks seem to hold the writhing forms of the snakes, unable to puncture through at this time, though how long the bags will hold is unknown as the snakes limitless endurance and single-minded focus means they shall never tire.
Xanos |
"Tie the tops of the bags, then put them all together inside a fourth bag. This should force them to struggle against each other and reinforce their cloth prison. If we find a chest to keep them in, that would be ideal."
Nice work Teon

Price is impressed. "Damn! That worked out better than I could have imagined. Good plan and fine execution gentlemen."

oh good lord... I take 10 and get everything of 20 or lower. The rest will have to wait until tomorrow because I am not coding that many dice rolls from my phone.

Wow! Jackpot! I'll post some rolls asap. Also, guys, since we lack a chest to safely store the enbagulated snakes should we toss them in this secret storage room just in case they get loose?
