Whoops, looks like Popole’s crit didn’t get resolved!
Knowledge (planes):1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Reginald moves in behind Popole. ”Oh look - another one of those multi-footed fey,” he comments cheerfully. ”And just look at all these demons! Why, it’s positively dretch-ful!”
Evil Eye (-2 AC) to fey-creature, and what special abilities or resistances might Reginald remember about dretch?

Fixed.
Reginald knows these are Dretches, and knows that Cold Iron is their greatest weakness for weaponry. Electricity and Poison they will ignore entirely. Acid, cold and fire can harm them, but they are resistant.

”You wouldn’t happen to have any cold-iron bolts, would you Popole?” Reginald asks. ”I hear it does absolutely dretch-ful things to their skin.” Again, his own wit is too much for him to bear in silence and he laughs uproariously.
”But if not, you could always try disrupting whatever nonsense that man in the back is up to,” he suggests through wheezes.
Evil Eye to Green (-2 to attack rolls), then Cackle to extend all Evil Eyes (should be -2 AC on Blue already since fey-creature was just a figment of Reginald’s imagination).
Suddenly the large Marrowtusk finds himself unable to keep his footing!
Flat-Footed
The blue dretch finds itself unnable to handle the eerie look of Reginald, and the green dretch finds itself discomforted still as well. Regardless, they continue their assault! Claw and teeth shred and slash at Marrowtusk and Aaftaab, but only a few blows connect.
Aaftaab takes 3 damage from a claw, and Marrowtusk takes 7 damage from red's claw and bite!
Would we have had time between fights to use these wands of CLW? After taking the 5 damage on top of what I had earlier, I would have probably healed up before opening more doors. My HP and rage have been updated in my banner thing.

The dretches continue their assault, the blue one shifting over to get Aaftaab and the red one focusing on Marrowtusk. Wormgnash once again attempts to trip up the massive warrior with a feint, but fails to succeed. Fortune favors the Pathfinders, as every attack from the Dretches missed their targets!

And Cackle extends the Evil Eye on Red for another round, so it's still active this round. Woo!
Also, can we identify this guy? Is he human, or is he dancer?
Reginald turns his attention to Wormgnash. "You know, this is a rather incomplete decoration job you've done here," he quips. "It looks like you were going for diabolic, but it's really just kinda parabolic, eh?" He erupts again with laughter at his own joke.
Evil Eye Wormgnash (-2 AC), Cackle to extend all Evil Eye hexes.
Aaftaab, the Blue dretch has lower AC if you want to concentrate your attacks.
Round 4&5: FIGHT!
Battlefield Conditions: Normal Light, Bile Everywhere Aaftab(-16,Fine)
Popole(-0,Will DC16 for Half of 9)

Marrowtusk is down to 1 hp and continues his rage (which I think puts him at 3 hp for now actually). He will take another big swing at the main baddie.

GM, the Red dretch should still be taking a -2 penalty to attack rolls - which would make that bite attack miss Marrowtusk. Wormgnash should also still be taking a -2 to his AC (can't find a Will save to know if it was successful or only good for 1 round).
Speaking of Marrowtusk, I unfortunately don't think he could make his attack against Wormgnash from his current position. But that should be enough damage to remove the red dretch! Also, rage should give you 6 extra hp (+2 for each HD).
And Aaftaab, you weren't affected by the spell (thank goodness it's only CL 3). Woo!
Spellcraft vs DC 23:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11 Will vs DC 16:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
"Oooof!" Reginald exclaims as Wormgnash's magic steals the breath from his lungs. His chuckles coming slower now, he flicks out his wand from its wrist sheath and taps himself lightly with it. "Marrowtusk! Come get this one!" he calls.
Cure Light Wounds:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Cackle to extend duration on all active hexes (Green, Red (if still alive), and Wormgnash), swift action to get wand from spring-loaded wrist sheath, standard action to use wand.
GM, the Red dretch should still be taking a -2 penalty to attack rolls - which would make that bite attack miss Marrowtusk. Wormgnash should also still be taking a -2 to his AC (can't find a Will save to know if it was successful or only good for 1 round).
Yes, red missed you so that damage is negated. Will get some combat correction posts in tomorrow before my appointment. Regular posting will resume on Friday.
The strange man, Wormgnash, strikes out at Reginald, but misses entirely! Popole's bolt appears to do no damage to the man!
The green Dretch attacks Aaftaab, but the little Grippli is just too deft to be hit by such a wretch.
Meanwhile outside of this adventure, Reginald is laughing to himself as he reads this chronicle, highlighting this particular moment.

I'm a little lost on where my HP is at now, I lost more HP in the last round even though I didn't get attacked? I'll update my HP when I get it cleared up.
Marrowtusk continues raging and swings again at the baddie.
The number of retcons + me having to sit in a claustrophobic tube today is messing with my head. As of the moment, you are at...
28-21+16=23 HP I believe.

Ninja'd - keeping the below just in case we're still in initiative. What kinds of special abilities does this thing have?
Just in case:
Reginald steps behind Marrowtusk. "Wormgnash?" he jokes. "More like Worm-hash, am I right?" He chuckles, his worry momentarily set aside for a good joke.
5 ft step, Evil Eye against Wormgnash (-2 saving throws), Cackle to extend.
As Wormgnash lies dead, you notice the bile in this room begins to stiffen and brown as if it were dying.
Inside the next room, you find exactly what you were looking for. Cupboards and cabinets filled with the family's records of their atrocities. The shelves are all neatly labeled, and finding every last missing record in this room is perhaps the easiest moment you have had the entire day.
Also on the table is a diagram of some sort of portal. It shows a vermlek demon stepping through what looks very much like the sacrificial pit in the adjacent room.
The notes look like they are written in Abyssal. You would take the time to read it, but suddenly...
The house begins to shake and tremble hard!
It is only a matter of time before the manor collapses! You must make your escape!
Every PC has to roll for these 5 obstacles. If all the rolls are not done by tomorrow night, I will bot the missing rolls.
1) Falling Cabinet
A powerful tremor shakes the basement, causing cabinets to topple!
DC 10 Reflex to dodge it, or DC 12 Strength to shove it aside.
2) Grasping Hands
The dying and panicking mites trapped in the demon’s bile web blindly grab at anything they can!
DC 10 Acrobatics to avoid them, or DC 12 Escape Artist to break free.
3) Rolling Barrels
Rolling barrels make movement in the flooded cellar difficult!
DC 12 Constitution to dive under, or DC 12 Swim to slip past them.
4) Crumbling Stairs
The precarious stairs leading out of the basement are falling apart!
DC 13 Climb to scramble up the steps, or DC 14 preception to tread carefully.
5) Panic in the Kitchen
A stream of frenzied rats blocks the way out!
DC 10 Knowledge Nature or Handle Animal to Herd them away, or DC 11 Fortitude to wade through the rats.
Regardless of the check results, each PC proceeds to the next obstacle, but any PCs who failed the check take 1d3 points of damage each. In between navigating the obstacles, it is possible to quickly quaff a potion, cast a single spell, or use an ability that takes no more than a full-round action to function.
A PC can drag an ally who falls unconscious through these obstacles, but that PC takes a –4 penalty on checks and saving throws while doing so. This penalty is only –2 if two PCs drag a single unconscious ally.
Any PC who has chosen the same check type as another PC can voluntarily take a –2 penalty on her check to give a +2 bonus on the other PC’s check. Multiple PCs can help the same character.
