Sunny nods to Marius' wise words even as she gathers herself up and follows along after Master Bryson and the others. (^_^)
Burian managed to unlimber his wand of healing and healed you all up to max hit points before you stampeded through the mirror.
A breath of cold as you leap through the mirror...
You stand in a huge chamber that is bathed in a strange red light that comes from above.
Thorny vines grow across the walls and toward the ceiling some forty feet up.
A natural stone bridge crosses through the upper reaches of this room, directly above a large pool of crimson liquid.
To the north, where you came from, stands a large mirror, its warped surface framed in iron.
The warm scent of wet fur is overpowering here, and a furtive shuffling echoes down from above.
Hearing the strange sounds, Ghirrak peers up, his eyes piercing the gloom, narrowing as the sees that they are , in fact, not alone.
"We have company!' he says looking up
Sunny steps into the new room and shivers a little at the changed temperature. At Ghirrak's call, she looks up, large blue eyes meeting... red. (?)
"Hmmm. I wonder if we can talk to it...?" She muses aloud though she waits to see who does what initially. She doesn't like the look of the red stuff, though.
"We here." Bryson calls out to the darkness. "Now what you gonna do?"
Well, so much for the element of surprise, Marius reflected. Given the seemingly multi-layered nature of the setting, he opted to quietly cast a Spider Climb spell so that he could move about more freely.
With an explosion of teleportation, fiendish great apes with glowing eyes and hulking physiques pop into existence right next to you!
They are able to tear into you in a whirlwind of swinging claws and gnashing fangs!

Round 1 _________________________
Players take their turn in order of postint, enemies will go last.
With an explosion of teleportation, fiendish great apes with glowing eyes and hulking physiques pop into existence right next to you!
Evil, magic monkey 1 vs Sunny
[Claw 1]1d20+14=28 for a possible 1d6+6=7 slashing damage.
[Claw 2] Miss
[Bite] Miss
(O_o)
"SON OF A MOTHER LUVIN' OBLONG!" Sunny exclaims as she deftly ducks one scything claw and the chomping of teeth only for the sneaky monkey to connect with a second claw.
Surprised by the monkey's sudden appearance that doesn't stop the tanned Elf from ignoring the money that's trying to eat her and help Burian,
To try and actually tumble into/behind the nasty monkey trying to eat her freind.
Quickly flipping out two of her tiny, silly seeming little wooden spikes.
Thence trying to, kind of, 'Climb' the other monkey.
Bar-Igura CMD is 22, or CMD 27 vs two of them. (ten foot reach).
Bar-Igura 3 and 4 stop Sunny from acrobatically moving and they take AoO on her.

"Don't let them grab you! They'll try and teleport you away," Marius warned, frantically running through his prepared spells for something decisive and coming up empty. He'd been genuinely hopeful about lightning spells, given their success in the last fight, but no such luck.
Instead, he unleashing the old standby of his enchanted ring. Sooner or later, probably sooner at this rate, he was going to expend all its charges. Hopefully that wouldn't put him at the absolute mercy of this cursed island.
Marius' ring blew the surprised demon across the room and into the far wall, and she fell down yowling. She's still up though.
Bryson, make a will save. These are the demons that have been stalking you and yours for the last week.
Stepping in behind one of the massive apes, Ghirrak unleashes a flurry of vicious strikes.
.

"Marius, anything else you know about how to kill these things?"?
Oh oh!
"Cold iron," Marius said belatedly, "They're resistant to magic, but it might also be effective. Lightning and poison won't hurt them."
Round 1 completed _________________________
Sunny disappears in a cloud of smoke, to reappear moving into position behind Demon 4.
Quickly flipping out two of her tiny, silly seeming little wooden spikes.
But she missed all her attacks wildly.
Marius Hawk
"Don't let them grab you! They'll try and teleport you away," Marius warned,
Instead, he unleashing the old standby of his enchanted ring
Marius' ring blew the surprised demon across the room and into the far wall, and she fell down yowling. She's still up though.
The gargoyle crown turns Marius' skin dark grey and metallic. (He has DR5/Adamantine for the next ten minutes.)
Stepping in behind one of the massive apes, Ghirrak unleashes a flurry of vicious strikes.
He missed the first swing, but connected with a series of powerful ki infused punches and kicks which beat the demon bloody. But he’s still up.
Bryson’s eyes turn blood red, his fangs and claws lengthen, and he grows in size.
He screams and leaps!
He hits demon 2, Ghirrak’s opponent, and bears her down waist deep into the pool of blood. He proceeds to tear into the demon with serious damage.
Burian’s hair lashed out and attacked demon 4, it only cause moderate damage, but managed to grapple the demon.
Bar-Igura 1 took the time to recover from being stunned from being slammed against the wall, then stood up.
Bar-Igura 2 tried to fight back against Bryson

Round 2 _________________________
Players take their turn in order of postint, enemies will go last.
Bryson is Enlarged, in Rage and Confused.
Sunny winces under the lashingswipe of the nasty monkey though it doesn't do much to put her off her stride. Deftly she drops another smoke pellet/bomb.
Before simply attempting to climb the beasty so as the better to reach its head.
Once there she asks "Hey? Ye wan'a see a magic trick?" Before deftly quickdrawing a pair of her wushu darts and trying to insert them into the beasts ears.
Marius didn't think he would be able to bring down his own opponent, but he could hope to keep it off the others' backs while they dealt with their own adversaries. With this in mind, he took a step forward to focus its attention on him before hurling a cloud of glittering dust in its face in an effort to blind it.
Rage as per the Barbarian? +4 Str and Con (+16 hp); +2 Will; –2 AC
Large: +2 Str, –2 Dex, and –1 to hit and AC
Bryson froths at the mouth as he cuts and bites and claws at #2.
Scimitar +1: rage, large

Taking a step forward, Ghirrak continues his relentless series of attacks, augmented by his internal power.
Round 2 completed_________________________
Sunny drops another smoke pellet/bomb. Before simply climbing the grappled beasty so as the better to reach its head.
Once there deftly quickdrawing a pair of her wushu darts. She stuck one into the creature’s right ear, dealing serious sneak damage. But a flinch from the creature caused her to miss the other one completely.
Marius took a step forward to focus its attention on him before hurling a cloud of glittering dust in its face in an effort to blind it. He beat the demon’s SR, but the creature blinked at the right moment and was not blinded. Still it was coated in glowing sparkles, clearly outlined in the semidarkness.
Bryson froths at the mouth as he cuts and bites and claws at #2.
Bearing the demon backward, the demon shrieked in sudden fear, and then Bryson completely tore it apart. Blood fountained high into the air, covering Bryson nose to tail.
At the end of the round, Bryson looked up and around, searching for another target for his berserk rage.
Taking a step forward, Ghirrak continues his relentless series of attacks, augmented by his internal power.
Three of the five powerful blows land hard enough to deal significant damage to the suddenly unhappy demon as it bleeds suddenly, jolted out of her feeling of superiority.
(npc) Burian’s hair, grappling the demon, lashed out again and again, drawing blood, though much of the fight is hidden by Sunny’s smoke bombs.
Bar-Igura 1, charged out of the cloud howling to crash into Marius, slashing him with his claws.
Pounce attack.

Round 3 _________________________
Players take their turn in order of postint, enemies will go last.
"Yeee..."Sunny gets shaken off the monkey of her attentions,
Deftly tumbling as she comes to a halt.
Whereupon she again drops a smoke pellet, plunging the money back into a pall and again scaling the object of her ire.
Once there she calls, "SURPRISE!" Before deftly quick-drawing a pair of her wushu darts and trying to, again, insert them into the beast's ears.
Ghirrak can feel the damage as the beasts claws dig deep, rending flesh and gouging bone. Coughing blood, he silently continues his assault, determined to see his opponent drop before he does.
Bryson Will go after the closest target, bar-lgura 1 or Marius, depending on whether or not he makes the save.
Scimitar +1: rage, large
Crown or no, Marius was looking very much the worse for wear, and had no interest in sticking around to be whaled upon some more, especially with a decidedly bloodthirsty-looking Bryson bearing down on the bar-lgura.
Instead, he transformed himself into a whirlwind and rose up and away from the fight. He would take a moment to collect himself and check for any other enemies which might be lurking about. Then, given a clear shot, he could start raining magic on their enemies from above.
Round 3 completed _________________________
"Yeee..."Sunny gets shaken off the monkey of her attentions, she tumbles to the side of the cavern with no damage.
Whereupon she again drops a smoke pellet, plunging the money back into a pall and again scaling the object of her ire.
Once there she calls, "SURPRISE!" Before deftly quick-drawing a pair of her wushu darts and trying to, again, insert them into the beast's ears.
Only one penetrates its leathery hide, dealing serious damage.
Ghirrak silently continues his assault, determined to see his opponent drop before he does.
Iron hard fists lashing out faster than the demon could block, Ghirrak’s arena training stood him well as he physically destroyed the demon’s skeleton and vital organs until it collapsed.
Bryson continued to Rage, charging at the mass of people fighting to his NE. Slipping slightly in the pool of blood, he crashed into them all, bearing them back into Sunny’s smoke clouds.
Blind now, he struck out in a berserk fury.
Bar-Igura 1, dealing serious damage.
Marius --Using Change Shape to take the whirlwind form of an air elemental and rising 60 feet into the air (or up to the ceiling, whichever comes first). Currently on 12 HP.

Round 4 _________________________
Players take their turn in order of posting, enemies will go last.
Bryson is Enlarged, in Rage and Confused.
Bryson can make a Will save to snap out of it.
Everyone in the smoke is blind (50% miss chance), Perception check DC20 to locate an enemy.
I just realized that the only enemy left is large and covered with glowing sparkles, so there is no miss chance or Perception check to locate him.
