It doesn't give me any indication for the knowledge rolls
Assuming you complete your preparations, Sheila Heidmarch shows you how to activate the refuge tokens to teleport immediately to Krune's sanctum.
A small ziggurat emerges from the southern wall in this tomblike stone chamber. Most of the structure’s blocks are simple but precisely cut stone blocks, but in several places petrified humans—too finely sculpted to be carved—shoulder the burden of the blocks above with scarred backs and hands. A short, steep flight of steps ascends the northern face to a second tier, and to the east and west two are other sets of steps that lead to the ziggurat’s apex twenty feet above the ground, falling short of the thirty-foot ceiling.

Ok gang remember we are going against a runeLord. I can protect give out 2 protection from energy extended. Who needs them? . I will suggest those of you who can cast similar spell to do so
Casting Extended Energy : Fire, Electricity, Cold on himself
Sorry, last night was hell at work. Didn't have any chance to get on before now due to collapsing into bed. I can't see any of the blessings I would want, but I'm having trouble finding my physical chronicle sheets. So I'll just skip it because Quelion's an arrogant SOB.
Quelion just smirks and begins conjuring himself. Meanwhile, the imp turns invisible and begins to sneak up on the Herald.
The herald casts lighting bolt on the group of the party hitting
1d5 ⇒ 22d5 ⇒ (4, 2) = 6 Thoth and Algar. RELFEX DC 20 for half of 10d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 2, 4, 6, 1, 4, 3, 6, 4) = 34
Seoni hastes the party
Algar moves to range after casting divine favor
Quelion begins summoning something.
Thoth assumes Kirin style.
Round 2.
The herald attacks Algar
slam 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 281d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 plus 1 INT drain and 1d4 - 1 ⇒ (3) - 1 = 2 INT damage
slam 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (19) + 16 = 351d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 plus 1 INT drain and 1d4 - 1 ⇒ (4) - 1 = 3 INT damage
tail slap 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 171d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7 plus grab
Thoth defly dodges the brunt of the lightning bolt, and analyzes his foe to ready himself for additional attacks
Know planes for Kirin style:1d20 + 19 ⇒ (10) + 19 = 29 = Swift Action
He then taunts the beast (Greater Feint) from afar hoping that his sharp wit will unbalance his foe.
bluff:1d20 + 16 ⇒ (19) + 16 = 35
feint:
You can use Bluff to feint in combat, causing your opponent to be denied his Dexterity bonus to his AC against your next attack. The DC of this check is equal to 10 + your opponent's base attack bonus + your opponent's Wisdom modifier. If your opponent is trained in Sense Motive, the DC is instead equal to 10 + your opponent's Sense Motive bonus, if higher.
Greater Feint
Feinted foe loses DEX until the beginning of your next turn, rather than on next attack.
Kirin Style:
Kirin Style - While using this style, you can spend a swift action to make a Knowledge check to identify a single creature (DC 15 + the creature’s CR for this purpose). If you succeed at the check, while using this style, you gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against that creature’s attacks, as well as a +2 dodge bonus to AC against that creature’s attacks of opportunity. These bonuses last for as long as you use this style. If you cease combat with the creature during this time and resume it later, you can attempt the check again.
Looks like the hearld will be denied his dex bonus until his/her next turn. :)
A Barbazu appears ten feet behind the Herald, quickly slashing with its' glaive. The imp sppears, jabbing at the critter rapidly with its' stinger as well. Meanwhile, Quelion decides to bring more of his "friends" to the party.

TACTICS
Before Combat If Kurshu believes that she is hidden
when intruders arrive, she casts displacement in
anticipation of trouble. She has already used 2 of her
limited wishes for the day, and the effects of her 5
negative levels from her divine separation weakness
and not feeding are already factored into her stats.
During Combat Kurshu uses ranged spells to harm
intruders, favoring any outsiders with her attacks.
If an outsider dies, Kurshu eagerly feeds on its
corpse to regain her lost strength. Otherwise she
is flexible in her tactics and uses her mobility,
spells, and abilities to best effect.
Morale Kurshu begrudgingly fights to the death.

SPECIAL ABILITIES
Divine Separation (Su) The herald has been separated from
Lissala for thousands of years, and doesn’t know where
her master is. The loss of her connection to the goddess
severely weakens the herald, and she gains 1 negative
level per day, up to a maximum of 16 negative levels.
These negative levels cannot be suppressed or removed
in any way (including restoration spells), except by using
her feed ability. (Refer to weakness, below, for her current
negative levels.) If Lissala returns and the herald regains
her connection to her master, she permanently loses this
weakness and its associated negative levels.
Feed (Su) Once per day, the herald can devour an outsider’s
corpse as a full-round action. For each Hit Die of the
devoured outsider, the herald automatically removes
1 negative level gained from her divine separation ability.
The consumed outsider must have at least 8 Hit Dice.
Intelligence Drain (Su) The herald deals 1d4–1 (minimum
0) points of Intelligence damage and drains 1 point of
Intelligence each time she hits with her slam attack. (The
herald does not heal any damage when she uses her
Intelligence drain.)
Power Surge (Su) Three times per day as a swift action, the
herald can increase the DC of her next spell-like ability cast
that round by 2.
Spell-Like Crafting (Su) The herald may use any of her spelllike
abilities when crafting magic items as if they were
actual spells.
Weakness (Su) Kurshu is experiencing even worse
symptoms from not feeding due to her proximity to
Krune’s rune foci, which draw power directly from
outsiders. As a result, Kurshu is emaciated, has shed
a number of scales, and has lost some of her magical
talents. In addition to her penalties for having 5 negative
levels, her natural armor bonus is 6 lower than normal,
her maximum hit point total is 50 lower, her damage
reduction is reduced by 5 points, her energy resistances
are 10 points lower, and her spell resistance is 5 points
lower. These penalties disappear 1 hour after Kurshu
removes all of her negative levels from her divine
separation ability.

I did DM, Algar was drained of 1 point and damage for an other three. 5its written on the current effect spoiler bar in my char sheet. But since he is a Cha caster apart from skill it has (for the moment little effect.
Reflex:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15 failed but the magical protection bears the brunt of the fire damage
After studying his opponent Thoth thought he knew what was coming next, but was instead caught off guard by a fireball. Thoth remains in place his odd fighting stance makes him look foolish to say the least (Maintain Kirin Style). He agains attempts feinting his foe, hoping to catch it off guard one more time.
Distracted by his burns Thoth can not seem will himself to bluff at his full potential. He panics when his plan fails and casts cure light wounds on himself
Quelion Reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17 Imp Fire Immune, No Save. Barbazau fire-immune, no save.
Concentration Check: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (5) + 17 = 22
Quelion looks surprisingly healthy for taking a fireball to the face. The pit-spawn accompanying him seem no the worse for wear as they continue to pummel the thing that dared to try to set them ablaze.
Upon losing the spell, though, Quelion spreads out a bit from the group and takes the (slightly) more cautious approach of just casting spells.

"Uh ... Wh-What happened?", dazed and a little confused Seelah looks around. For what seemed like an eternity it was dark, and empty. She could do nothing.
Then, as quickly as it had started, she was right where she remembered, handing her wand to Thoth.

indeed. Spell recap: Algar cast and Resist Energy (Fire, Cold) on Seoni and a Barkskin on Seelah. He also used 2 charges on the wand to heal himself back to full.(Fire
A flight of stairs ascends to the north from the stone ziggurat’s first tier, terminating in a large stone door. Carved into the door’s center is a large seven-pointed star, known as a Sihedron, with a palm-sized disk of blue-green metal inlaid into each point and a handprint embedded in its center. The disks glow softly with blue-green light, illuminating several runes that surround the handprint.
The reinforced stone door is locked but has no visible hinges or keyhole, and each of the abyssium plates bears a single rune that names one of the seven kingdoms of Thassilon. Those runes surrounding the handprint read, “Only those who bear the life sign shall pass.”

Master Explorer:
+1 (Ex) can disable intricate and complex traps in half the normal amount of time (minimum 1 round) and open a lock as a standard action instead of a fullround action. Can always take 10 on Disable Device and Stealth checks, even if distracted or endangered. A delver can use Disable Device to disarm magical traps.
Thoth looks for a mechanism to disable.
perception:1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32
if he finds something he will attempt to disable it.
take 10 disable device:10 + 23 = 33
If nothing is found he allows someone who took a mark to place their hand there.

Thoth leads the way his elven eyes attempting to perceive anything strange. I can just take 10 for a 29 for passive perception, hopefully with a few assists to bump it into the thirties.
