Assuming this was a scroll Leona brought with her (rather than just bought at the concessions) it is generally assumed that she has already deciphered the text (most often with read magic) and now just has to read it, out loud. I'm pretty sure she meets all the other requirements for using it (high-enough casting stat, spell is on the sorcerer's spell list, etc...).

Actually she's holding 50' of hair rope. She had stowed her bow away the turn before. So Chandu would have a mouth full of living writhing devil hair. Fortunately(?) her teeth do not make contact (missed hitting the erinyes' CMD).

So, what now? Same actions, or are you changing up? The rope (kinda like a whip) still counts as ranged weapon for threatening.

The remainder of the full attack continues regardless. You can make natural and weapon attacks together, the natural attacks simply become secondary. If she wasn't holding the bow I would have tried to sunder the bow with the bite, also to no effect. The spear attacks stand.

Chandu's spear point hits home on the first stab and erinyes drops from its end like stuck fish into the stream below and is lost to its churning waters.

As first devil down, Veshtahz decides to ignore alchemical weapon and Shrec. So he will try to reach one left and bite her butt. Free action to drop and full action to fly towards for 80 feet

Leona takes only a brief moment to doubt herself - was it worth using the scroll now that one of their foes had fallen? But no, there was still one left. She does her best to take to the skies, moving a bit closer to the remaining erinyes and... Well. Trying to ascend without something going horribly wrong.

Atum would receive some Hellish notice for using something brought from a plane of pure chaos.
Jair, I assume is still feeling hopeless, but lemme know if there was anything you wanted to do.
Shrec scores a glancing hit upon the erinyes who deftly draws a wicked-looking barbed longsword with her free hand. She smiles cruelly over their locked blades. "First I gut you, and then your friends."
Shrec's blade didn't seem to bite as deep as he hoped.
With Shrec's holy blade in the arena dust far below, the devilish crowd seems into the match again.

I am sorry about confusing you by enlarge. Haste does not provide you DMG, but enlarging making you sword Large, which deals now 1d8 dmg instead of 1d6. But I'd suggest we won't change this post, because we probably still missing something, like +1 from swords enhancement...

Being tired by this fight almost without danger to his person, and actually being almost uneffective (as true diviners are) Atum decides to make experiment.
He moves closer to infernal pit with pentagramm inside and getting ready another wand (of summon monster I) as Magic Missles stick was left to Jair. And look here liquid blade tube fall to take it later.

So Shrec starts out with a +4 STR mod and a +1 short sword (+5 to attack and damage) and a bab of +7. Currently Shrec has good hope, inspire courage (scroll down), haste, and enlarge person in effect. So +5 to attack (haste, hope, inspire), +5 damage (enlarge, hope, inspire), -2 to AC (enlarge, being both bigger and clumsier). Combine that with Hell's displeasure, and Shrec ends up with totals of +1 to attack, +5 damage, -2 AC. Added to his basic stats and sword that comes to +6 (+ bab + d20) to attack, +10 damage, -2 AC.

You are getting +2 to hit and damage from inspire courage, +2 to hit and damage from good hope and +1 to hit from haste. They are all marked on the map.

Smoothly ascending some more, Leona snags that wand of magic missile she'd been looking for only moments before and gauges how much longer until she can turn its power upon their remaining enemy.

Leona ascends another sixty feet and gives the wand a try! She'd spared a moment's worry for Shrec, but it looked as though the others had things well in hand.
"Working on it!" Leona calls back. She frowns at the wand when she sees its effects. Perhaps she ought to have burned her own spells for the day, after all.

Atum will walk away from the pit, getting ready wand of Cure light wounds awaiting him to fall down. He is not expect to catch fighter. Being diviner, Atum knows exactly when and where Shrec will fall :)

Take a moment to render yourselves vertical again.
"What do you think you were even doing? And what did I say about drawing attention to yourselves?" says a clearly angry Zarta. "You were supposed to contact me when you found out anything."

It is the plane itself, or rather one being who is intimately a part of it. Any display of good or chaotic religiosity (like channeling the power of a good or chaotic god through a symbol of their power; remember A cleric must be able to present her holy symbol to use this ability) draws its attention. Other things that are anathema to Hell's lawful evil ideals can do it too. The devils themselves seem oblivious to the way they act when it occurs. It is as if something else was seeing through their eyes at the moment the triggering event happens. Again, there might be times when someone feels they need to do something that will draw Hell's ire--and that's fine if you think you can withstand the consequences. Hell's displeasure makes it feel like the plane is watching and taking an active role against the PC. Worse, at this point at least, the plane's antagonism doesn't seem to go away and the penalties remain.
