The festrog slobbers and snarls a bit as it still recoils from the sting of the recent positive energy burst. It bites at the nearby cleric before departing for the source of the errant arrow.

The whole party is up! Those paralyzed can only take mental actions (e.g., channel energy). With two more party members back, it's time to swing the battle. Watch out for that mummy slam though!
As soon as the grip of paralysis releases Gratius' body, he raises his glaive high and slashes it down at the festrog, cleaving it's gaunt body in two!
Very good! Now you can all focus on the mummy, but do remain incredibly careful. It is slow, and as you can see is limited to 20' per move action.
Hootie's eyes widen at the sight of the Festrog bearing down on her but luckily Gratius's recovery made sure that the Festrog isn't coming back at her again. She gives a small wave towards the warrior.
Pulling a vial from her belt from amongst the others hanging, she pulls the stopper halfway with her teeth before tossing it at the remaining monster.
Frustrated by the paralysis but now out of its grip, Kirrote bellows in rage. With deliberate steps he moves towards the mummy, drawing his greataxe and swinging it across the mummy's midsection.
A small portal to the Celestial realm opens, and an eagle flies through. Ahmandé points at the mummy, and the eagle wastes no time attempting to shred the scraps of cloth and bandage from the undead creature's shaky form.
Ahmandé quickly changes tack, continuing to exhort his allies as he calls on his own arcane training to coat the floor underneath the mummy with slick grease!
"There, see, we're coming back already! We have the numbers now, we can take this mummy!" He steps away, trying to keep a bit of distance between him and the mummy.

Alchemists' fire has a range increment of 10', are you moving before throwing it?
Kirrote comes out of his paralysis quickly slashing his greataxe into the mummy. He lands a clean hit, though it doesn't seem to rend the creature as much as he thought it did...

** spoiler omitted **
Looks like your duration should be 4 rounds, not 3, based on your level.
Ahmandé creates a slick sheen underneath the mummy, and it's lurching starts to look less threatening and more clumsy as it struggles to keep it's balance...
Reflex, DC15:1d20 - 1 ⇒ (13) - 1 = 12
It takes a tumble and lands on its wrapped behind.
Mummy is now prone, his AC is -4 vs. melee attacks, but it is +4 vs. ranged attacks. SO, Hootie, see my question above but we can still resolve your attack before this happens. HOWEVER, understand that the splash damage would hit Kirrote, and typically you want permission from those players to be affected by collateral damage.
The newly arrived planar bird pecks and scratches at the mummy, but it seems to get little more than bits of the wrapping.
I'm going to await Hootie's input before moving onto the mummy's turn.
GM screen:
Mummy tracker (without alchemists fire action): -11
gotcha, so then the attack roll would need some -2’s for range increments, no? It looks like 30’ on. 10’ range, so -4. That’s why I figured you wanted to get closer. Or if you’re fine with this then I’ll proceed and resolve it.
cool, time for the resolution then. A natural 20 is an auto-hit, but the crit does not confirm.
Hootie lobs an alchemist's fire through the air, and while it seems like a long distance to do so, she places it perfectly as it lands directly onto the mummy's head, pouring down its face. A bit of it spreads to Kirrote 1 splash damage.
However, strangely it seems the fire sits atop the gold coating of the mummy, soaking no further into its rags or onto its body proper. The flames quickly subside on on that goal coated surface.
The mummy then awkwardly positions its stumpy arms on the ground to push itself up...
Stand up from prone, move action
Kirrote and Ahmandé's summoned creature each get an attack of opportunity!

Wait is that a toe I just moved? Oh you undead thing I am breaking out of your spell and when I do you are mine. Keep the fight up lads, nice hit Kirrote.
As he watches the battle from the corner of his eye.

Slice that mummy from groin to jaw, boys! Of course, as soon as I get out of this mess, I will have to slip and slide over that slick spot to get close enough to hit it, but who knows when that will be. Keep chipping away at it, guys! Perhaps then I may survive whatever it does to me after I thump its rump.
Gratius thrusts his glaive through the still-diminishing cloud of eagle feathers between him and the mummy and slices into its shoulder. More corpse "material" falls to the floor from under the rags and wrapping.
You can tell it's struggling mightily to keeps its footing on the grease while bearing the hit...
Gratius takes a 5ft. step toward the mummy and strikes.

Kirrote, go back next to me! We need to use the grease to our advantage.
another suggestion (take it or leave it, because you may truly have a better idea): if you all shift to the right side you make it so that it has more grease to traverse to hit you.
that totally makes sense rp-wise. the others could think it over though.
Kirrote swings his axe and seemingly hits the same area that Gratius had torn away at, and a chunk of mummified intestine drops out. The mummy seems to look down at it and frown sadly, as if it has just dropped something that was otherwise perfect beforehand.
So you've made some serious headway now, I'm start to feel much better about your chances :)

Aldran Moves up to Yangrit, and converts a spell into a curing spell.

The mummy caught itself at first, and then over-corrects by snapping straight up to return to its original lurch-y position. However, during the snap it loses its footing and crumbles to the floor again.
It stands up and into Gratius' thrusting glaive, which goes clean through it and comes out the other side. There is now a size-able hole through it's abdomen.
Its groaning gets more persistent as it surveys the ground around it for the best escape path from the grease next round, if it lasts.
As it's doing this, Gratius again thrusts at it with his polearm. He can still feel the solid pressure and pushback of substantial mummified, hardened corpse material, but he still manages to wrench another chunk from its midsection. A mummified lung slides along the grease.
Mummy -76
It's looking quite rough, like it might fall apart soon. Yet, for now, it still stands.
You can now hear flames roaring on the other side of the east wall...
Kirrote, Hootie, and Ahmande are still up!
You folks have this! I was pretty worried in the beginning, and look where we are now :)
Hootie holds her shot knowing that with all the cover surrounding the beast, she'll likely miss. Instead she tracks it and see if it attempts to make a move away from the greasy patch.
Readied action to bullrush if it comes out of the grease patch.
Will draw AOO.
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
Kirrote throws a final cleave at the mummy, tearing it in half so that the hardened parts that remain break apart and clatter to the ground. The upper portion, the head and arms, slides along in the grease until it reaches the friction of the default, stone floor.
Out of combat initiative. Excellent work team!
Yangrit immediately begins to feel her body again and the group is again whole. The room is suddenly "at peace", except that you remember the steady state is a burning building. You're suddenly more aware of the roaring of the flames from behind the eastern wall. It will not be long before it spreads to the rest of the manor...
DC20 Perception:
One of the oil paintings in the room has been torn and some object is wedged between the picture and the back of the frame. Upon closer examination, the object is a linen envelope containing a will written in Osiriani... If somebody makes this and can translate the Osiriani I'll post the handout in the slides.

Shaking herself free of the paralysis (and chagrined that she couldn't do so until the mummy was dead, despite having a hunch that her efforts to fight it would have been less effective than she would have liked), Yangrit praises her team's work in defeating the mummy, grunting a curt: "Good job, everyone."
That being said, she becomes all business: "Now let us see to the west wing! Before we open the doors, we should take a deep breath of clear air and hold our breaths. Where there is fire, there is smoke." She then strides to the door and looks over her shoulder to see if everyone is ready before opening it. She is determined not to sit out the next challenge.
