Swift action to change Mvumbu's animal focus to Falcon.
He moves over to the downed crusader next to Mvumbu, and applies his wand once more to Mvumbu.

Cygnus flicks his wrist as a wand snaps into his hand. He takes a step closer to the crusader and says,"sorry my friend this is my only healing. The sting will only last about a minute."
Swift- spring-loaded wrist sheath for Infernal Healing Wand. 5' step then standard action to use wand on crusader.

Flynn, it might be worth using this round to apply an oil of align weapon we got from earlier to your bow, since it looks like the remaining demon is tey9ng to retreat.
Ah, makes sense...saw where the demon was prone but overlooked where it mentioned him trying to escape...if the GM will allow, Flyn will not fire this round but will retrieve and apply oil of align weapon (good) on his bow (or his arrows, whichever is applicable)...if it's too late to change, after he fires one shot, he'll retrieve the oil from his bandolier and in preparation for applying it next round...
OVERSEER ANNOUNCEMENT
The Society’s finest have dealt a great blow to the demonic generals.
As the Pathfinders defeat the beast, it explodes in a mighty blast of unholy fire 200' across. Multiple Seekers have perished, but the significance of the loss is keenly felt by the Horde as one of their generals falls.
Going to have Kivuli search for another crusader and move to him. perception Kivuli:1d20 + 17 ⇒ (5) + 17 = 22
A huge fireball lights up the evening sky not too far away as the seekers triumph. Jino crushes his demon target underfoot, to much less fanfare. Cygnus steps froward to begin the healing process on the downed woman. Kramac continues it. Kivuli spots another crusader moaning for aid. Flyn uses his gifted oil. Kiboko heals his hippo while the hippo scans for crusaders and keeps an eye on the still lifeless Kelumur.

Kiboko looks from Mvumbu to the slowly healing crusader and back again, and decides to apply his wand to the crusader.

Kiboko then switches Mvumbu's animal focus back to Bear.

Mvumbu defends the wounded crusader.
Consider this a ready action to chomp any demon that becomes adjacent.

Enjoying the brief respite from demon advances, the group searches and heals. Despite his best effort to spot a demon, Flyn finds another wounded defender laying in a pile of those less fortunate. Mvumbu salivates as she waits for another monster to arrive. Kelumur, well... may just outlast the duration of the spell cast upon him.
"I'm heading back in to the fray. Please accept my thanks." one of the crusaders grumbles as he hands Cygnus another oil of align weapon.
The relative peace is broken as you watch a paladin wearing a rainbow colored cloak and bearing the songbird of Shelyn on his breastplate. He gallops through your battlefield on a white horse, followed by three other warriors bearing the sword of Iomedae on their shields. "Seekers may have perished in that Balor's destruction! Make way! Make way!" He shouts to you as the group gallops by heading toward the flash you saw a few moments earlier.
With a crack and the smell of brimstone, a hideous demon violently appears in the air to the southeast. It looks similar to the vrock you encountered in Thurl's lodge, but this one seems more savage and hmmm, something else...
DC 25 Knowledge Planes:
This is a mythic savage Vrock. Its claws are sharper, fangs larger, and hide is thicker. For every 5 you beat the DC feel free to ask another question.

Kramac will raise holy symbol of Kurgess, the Strong Man, high in the air towards the Vrock. He invokes the power of his god to shield him from harm. Casting Shield of Faith, as a swift action activating the runic tattoo I charged earlier to cast Divine Favor.
Kramac will then lean down and scoop up his cold iron weapon, and direct Jino to interpose the pair between the demon and Kramac's allies.
Come demon! Come test your mettle against Kramac if you dare! Nerosyn SHALL NOT FALL!
The demon lilts over the carnage below, clearly pleased at the devastation. With a snarl it generates a sharp collection of images around its form. Within your heads the clear intonation echoes with disdain...

Saving my last use of Perfect Strike and my Elf-Bane/Cold Iron arrows for when the images are dispelled as this looks to be a very tough fight, especially if it stays in the air...
Flyn whispers a mostly silent prayer to Erastil and sends some blunt arrows at the demon and its images, hoping to dispel some...or get lucky...

Hoping that the fallen crusader next to him will recover very soon, Kiboko sheaths his wand, and places a Barkskin spell on Mvumbu. He asks Mvumbu to go and protect the fallen crusader nearest the newly arrived demon.
Switch Mvumbu's animal focus to Stag to give the speed needed to reach the crusader.

"Haarr!!"
Mvumbu honks, and bounds off to Defend the other crusader.
Cygnus' aerial fireball lights up the sky, but the demon laughs off most of the burn. Kivuli heals the fallen again. Flyn does his best to clear the images but only nets two, despite hitting one of the images dead between the eyes. Kiboko protects and serves. Kramac calls in an old debt from the Duke of Thunder and Jino takes flight.
The crusader next to Kiboko does rise finally and pats his shoulder. "Let's do this, my friend." before giving him an oil of align weapon. Must be standard issue.
With a jolt Kelemur begins moving again and strains to review the battlefield as his eyes regain perfect focus.
The demon's skin flashes as another effect strengthens his body and it speeds away from the new airborne threat.
Kelumur finally shakes off the effects of the paralysis, but finds himself in no better a situation to contribute towards fighting a flying demon. The half-orc scans the field for survivors.
Perception:1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25
Kelumur will take a move action to head towards the survivor if he spots any, and perhaps point it out so that others could as well. If he doesn't find any, he will move 30ft north, away from the flying demon.

Judging the centre of the battlefield to be the best strategic position for now, Kiboko immediately pours the Oil he is given into his quiver of cold iron arrows and draws his bow. currently holding greatsword in one hand, bow in other, threatening adjacent with bite.

Won't use Deadly Aim this turn...might gimme a better chance to knock out some more images...I should've thought of that last round but I'm gettin' old...

The group prepares for the upcoming battle, slowly encircling the demon above. With a glint of metal from the setting sun, Kelumur spots a wounded crusader attempting to find meager cover behind a flame-torn bush.
Flyn aims carefully, trying to weaken the foe's defenses, and manages to eliminate two more pesky images.
The beast (sensing the sharp shooting of the elf) drops closer to the ground and prepares for the inevitable onrush by letting out a shrill, deafening screech.
Everyone but Kivuli, Kelemur and Cygnus, DC 21 Fortitude save or be stunned.

Kramac, sensing the time for posturing is over, shakes off the deafening screech, then urges Jino slightly forward to unleash a torrent of attacks. His eyes glow and his body is enveloped in a soft blue light as he directs his god's wrath towards the demon.
5-foot step, full attack, swift action for Bane(Evil Outsider)
If Kramac hits, he will once again leave an apparent opening to draw his opponent off balance. Activate broken wing gambit if I hit - Demon gets +2 to hit and damage on his first attack, and provokes AoOs from Jino and myself

GM - I seem to remember you saying that you liked to resolve things in initiative order rather than post order, whenever possible. If I remember that, please add +2 to all of Jino and Kramac's attack rolls from the menacing bonus from Mvumbu.
Kelumur's mind might be weak against compulsion, but his body is a fortress."Medical attention needed here!" The half orc screams across the war zone. With the demon coming close to the ground, the rogue seizes the opportunity to attempt to turn the odds.
Move action, free:throw shield, standard:throw Dagger, free draw a silver and child iron Dagger.
Cygnus and Kivuli botted race to help the downed crusaders as the battle intensifies. Flyn finishes his volley, blasting the last image then finally hitting the demon itself. But there is a purple-black flash of light as the arrow's force is dissipated.
Kiboko strides forward first as Mvumbu leaps forward to please his master. The demon strikes out quickly at both, opening up a deep gash across Kiboko's chest.
Kelumur moves in to strike as well and is greeted with a face full of claw. The cold iron dagger hits the beast cleanly but is absorbed by the same dark flash of light and does not penetrate.
Kramac drops down upon Jino, but only his first strike penetrates the demon's skin through whatever evil protection surrounds the beast.
With a disgusting plume, the air around the demon fill with nasty spores that attach to all with fiendish accuracy. Sticky tendrils erupt from each and begin to clench hungrily. Enraged by the blow from above, the demon attempts to destroy the brave souls and gets several bloody strikes in before the retaliatory gambit comes through, albeit with a flurry of dark flashes that weaken each blows' impact.

Holy moly, this thing needs to go down this round! I'll post actions after Kramac and Jino have acted - and I'll certainly be using my Buffering Cap to turn that extra crit damage into non-lethal.
