I will also recall frostbite with my pearl of power.
Before entering the portal I will use my oil of bless weapon on my sword and cast greater invisibility (Desmond hides in my pack so bodyguard not being applied currently).
Once inside Favian will swiftly make his blade keen and icy burst again with his arcane pool.
Using the surge of power from the blood of Deskari, he flies to engage the nearest enemy.
He then casts his frostbite spell and unleashes a series of attacks.

Before entering the rift, Rand will renew his Barkskin.
Once on the other side, Rand will sense what is happening, and then an idea hits him; an idea so incredibly good it makes him chuckle; a rather unsettling sound, given that his voice is out of phase with itself.
Rand focuses on the terrain, and the strain of the Abyss against those of differing alignments slackens, almost as if a weight has been set down.
For my benefit from the above rules, Rand is going to lower the planar trait from Strongly Aligned to Mildly Aligned.
"And once again, we get caught up in something trying to steal divinity." He mutters, as he eyes the portal.
"Puts things in perspective."
Before they head through, he casts a few spells...
Think Thrag was the only one wounded, yes? Looks like 29 damage? Will heal that first, using regular spells (cure light x 1 and cure moderate x 1). CLW + CMW:1d8 + 5 + 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 5 + (2, 4) + 10 = 29
Buffs!
Think the survival talisman has expired, the extended spellcraft one is still going. Will make sure Lilly has it, as she still has to deal with the planar penalties... the rest do not.
Will UMD the wand of gravity bow again... UMD:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8Oh... hmm... ok, nm. Wand locked out. 8P
Regular buffs it is then!
extended blessing of fervor (on everyone)
extended bull's strength (on self)
extended shield of faith (on self)
extended divine favor (on self)
(Fervor extended with rod, the others extended by blessing of fervor)
He will also cast align weapon for anyone who wants it
Finally ready, he will follow the others through the dark portal, to face Koth'Vaul... hopefully for the final time.
Before entering the Rift Lilly renews her shield of faith and acivates wands of shield, heightened awareness and mirror image. I cannot fail to UMD a wand.
Favian fails to shape this new abyssal realm and thus focuses all of his attention pouncing on the nearest vrock vassal, leaving the demon cold, fatigued and shaken.
The cultists heighten their chant, and Koth'Vaul smiles, rising his arms to shape the area.
Cultists Abyss Manipulation, success on an 18, 19 or 20:5d20 ⇒ (8, 15, 15, 8, 20) = 66 Koth'Vaul Abyss Manipulation:2 = 2 Total Count so far: Bad Guys 3
The ground begins to tremble...
Koth'Vaul then waves one of his large pincers around, then point it towards the gathered heroes. All the heroes (except Favian) are suddenly lifted up to a height of 80 feet and remain there, oscillating slightly. Reverse Gravity, 80-ft height, 10'x20'; those who are flying or levitating can break out of this suspended status on their turn, but otherwise, no saving throw, no SR involved with this...
Koth'Vaul then flies down towards Favian to assist his vrock vassal.
Rand and others: Abyssal realm manipulation check at the beginning of your turn, along with your vote for which effect, please; Rand you cannot change the properties of the plane itself, and it would be useless to you anyway as you and the rest have Abyssal Attunement.

Teriq sprouts a pair of fiery wings, as he is lifted into the air, quickly gaining control of his own movements, despite the demon's attempt.
Swift Action, wings of flame! 5' step back and up.
He can feel Koth'Vaul trying to manipulate the very essence of the plane, and does what he can, through force of will, to counter the demon's attempts.
Abyssal manipluation roll: 1d20 + 14 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 14 + 5 = 37 Don't care which effect really, since KV is flying, and I think Vrock's do too, the fissures seem pointless... so meteors or acid I suppose?
From on high, he raises his bow, and starts to fire at the glabrezu.

Okay, no worries. I will be autocontributing my 2 points.
Tothek has a hard time penetrating the vrock's hide and does minimal damage.
Teriq breaks out of the reverse gravity field and launches his arrows. Teriq notices the first one plunging right through the fiend, or more precisely, the illusion of the fiend. The illusion winks out and Koth'Vaul (or another illusion?) reappears right behind Favian ready to flank him with his vrock vassal. Teriq aims the other arrows at the new apparition and only one manages to find a gap in his armor. Upon hitting the penetrating the fiend, his wing, made out of a swarm of insects, releases a discordant scraping and rasping sound.
Favian Fort DC 28:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34
The warrior manages to suppress the bile rising in his stomach, shaking his head for clarity.
The vrock next to Favian releases his spores then attempts to maul him.
blue vrock vs. Favian; +2 due to flank; applying shaken/fatigue after the fact but even without penaly, none of the attacks below are a hit... spores dmg:1d8 ⇒ 1 bite:1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 16 + 2 = 36 claw:1d20 + 17 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 17 + 2 = 31 claw:1d20 + 17 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 17 + 2 = 26 talon:1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 16 + 2 = 31 talon:1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 16 + 2 = 34
Favian spins and dodges all attacks easily.
Another vrock (yellow) arrives, screeching at Favian and releasing its spores as well.
Favian Fort DC 21:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34 spores dmg:1d8 ⇒ 6
The warrior holds his sword firm.
A third vrock (red) charges Favian from the south and releases its spores too.
spores dmg:1d8 ⇒ 4 claw:1d20 + 17 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 17 + 2 = 25
The warrior dodges easily.

Lilly calls out in a harsh, gutteral language down to the grouped demons. Her voice carries a poweerful intonation of control and command, she will not be resisted!
Casting greater forbid action on all of the demons, delivering it in Abyssal and selecting attack.
Teriq watches his first shots pass right through what appears to be an illusory double of Koth'Vaul, which disappears and reappears elsewhere. He is a little relieved to see his later arrow actually the second form, though is not entirely sure what just occurred...
Can he determine what just happened? Mirror images? Invisibilities? Illusory other things? d-door effect? evil twin? all of the above? Spellcraft?:1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 8 + 4 = 23
The strange insect wing rasping sound that Favian had to save vs... was that caused my arrow hitting, or something else? Didn't see any damage indicated, so a heal/regen of some sort?
As an aside, Tothek's bow has bless weapon, if it was DR/Good that affected the one shot that appeared to hit.
Of course, they could have atypical DR for vrocks... so attempt to figure out if that's the case too! Knowledge (planes) on Vrocks:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 Knowledge (planes) on Koth'Vaul:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Sorry, I thought the infusion thing was a One-time effect.
Gonna go with Meteor Swarm, and have the meteors not impact demons directly, but I will have them land so that each demon has to make 2 saves against the spell, and Fabian doesn't. I'll just roll the damage below to make it easier for you =)
@Rand: two meteors only, not four, and they are each 40-ft radius, so PvP warning here... Be careful where you drop these 80-foot diameter balls from space (spaceballs? :) ) I've gone ahead and placed two 40' radius templates on the map to show you a position that would leave Rand unmolested. Blue would be subject to two spaceballs while red, yellow and the cultists subject to one. Please confirm this would be ok. -->PS: please place yourself on the map as well, or let me know which square you land on and I'll move ya.

I placed the two centered spheres so that they could hit two creatures each and moved myself (there was something blocking me from moving earlier).
Lilly enacts a spell which seems to mystify yellow vrock.
Thrag flies down and lands two massive hits on Koth'Vaul, who roars with rage! as he lands his massive blows, the wing that Koth'Vaul has grafted to his back (which appears entirely composed of a swarm of flying insects) releases a discordant scraping and rasping sound. Favian and Thrag must succeed two DC 28 Fortitude saves or be sickened for 1d4 ⇒ 2 rounds.
Rand's dark eyes flare with murder and the Abyss listens to Him, parting the eternally smoke-filled skies to afford a glimpse of the infinite cosmos beyond... two large rocks change their course in their impossibly fast race through space, and they both land just a few paces away from the enemies gathered before Favian. Although the cosmic fire does not hurt him, Koth'Vaul issues a low growl, eyes intent on Rand... "There can only be one, you know..." muses the fiend. "This battle will decide who that is..."
Meteors:
Meteor 1, 2 cultists, yellow, blue, red:

Deciding that he doesn't want to be in the middle of all the demons he suddenly disappears from his current position and appears some distance away. dimension door
Blue vrock falls unconscious... half frozen into some kind of torpor.
Koth'Vaul takes a swipe at Thrag as the half-orc arrives on the scene. Moments later he steps where Favian just disappeared from, closing the gap with his vrocks, and lays into Rand.

Slight correction on the Note above: not only melee, but whenever a creature damages Koth’Vaul with an attack that deals bludgeoning, force, piercing, or slashing damage, the wing releases a discordant scraping and rasping sound. All non-demon creatures within 10 feet of Koth’Vaul must succeed at a DC 28 Fortitude save or be sickened for 1d4 rounds. --> so, not only for melee folks, but archers as well: each of your attacks will trigger a Fort Save DC 28 for those within 10 feet of Koth'Vaul
He is unsure what part the cultists on the ridge are playing in the conflict, but tries to use the plane itself to cordon them off, and prevent them from interfering.
You said we could make 'structures' or the like... so trying to encase them in a box of stone, or similar... so they have no line of sight/effect and thick enough that no visual or sound goes either direction. We can extract them later, to possibly learn more of what KV has done.
He watches in alarm, as Rand is nearly torn apart by the glabreezu eep! 3 hp's to spare?, and realizes he can not get there to help before the vrocks can move in to finish the job.
So instead, he turns his sights from Koth'Vaul, to the vrocks, hoping at least to take them out, or drive them back, long enough that Rand can extricate himself.

Tothek sinks all his arrows into yellow vrock, clustering all the damage in the same wound. The yellow vrock, unable to retaliate due to Lilly's spell, decide to leave the battlefield and teleports away.
Teriq decimates the red vrock, and it slumps to the stones, dying and bleeding out... then Teriq calls upon his newfound blood powers and sends one more arrow Koth'Vaul's way, which hits the fiend in the shoulder. The discordant sounds keeps Thrag's off his game a little.

Auto two points from me.
I missed that everyone needs to roll a fort save from attacks, not just the attacker, so:
Rand will draw upon his newfound power to brutalize Koth'Vaul.
Spending one mythic point as a free action for an extra standard action and one point as a swift action for Surprise Strike which gives me +4 to hit, he's flat-footed for, and bypasses all DR an Hardness. I'm going to use Surprise Strike first, with Defensive Spin, which gives me a +4 dodge bonus to AC vs. Koth til the start of my next turn.
Rand pounds the fiend over and over again, but not all strikes penetrate the demon's defenses.
With the multitude of attacks from Rand I'm gonna rule that Thrag is sickened for the rest of the fight as there's not point to ask for all these saving throws especially since the overlapping duration is 1d4 rounds; same will apply to anyone that makes it within 10-ft of Koth'Vaul and remains after Rand/Teriq/Tothek/Favian do their thing.

Sorry Rand, I cannot reach you as I dont have air walk active yet. If someone can get him to me I can drop a heal to recover anything. For now though I am going to try and slow down Koth'Vaul
Lilly, bobbing helplessly in mid air, focuses her mind. She casts her consciousness into the depths of her home on the elemental plane of water and draaws forrth an icy globe of freeing flame. She tosses it directly at Koth'Vaul, hoping to at least try and slow him down.
Full round action to cast persistent cold based flaming sphere. He needs to make two DC24 reflex saves. If he fails either he takes 3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 4) = 16 cold damage. If he fails the save and takes cold damage then he is slowed for 1d4 ⇒ 1 rounds.

No worries. I'll live or die by the dice, as was intended.
None of Thrag blows land on Koth'Vaul due to his unabashed lack of precision, except one. When that one seems angled to crush his right knee, there is a brief flash of light and the hammer goes right through an illusion of Koth'Vaul instead.
Suddenly, the giant looming fiend is standing behind Rand, darkness running along his claws and a wicked smile spreading on his helmet... as if that was possible... "This is the end, monk. Leave the Abyss to me."
As if to emphasize this statement, the cultist chant Koth'Vaul's name to a crescendo, despite the sizzling pain of their faces melting!

Unfortunately that was the best I could do. I already used my folio reroll and I have no other boons that allow a reroll (except for 1 that only works on undead).
If Favian is hit critcally, Desmond will use In Harm's Way to take the damage instead. Favian and Desmond will split damage taken otherwise.
If either Favian or Thrag are NOT sickened yet, I need three Fort Saves, DC 28 now please; if you're already sickened don't bother let's just assume you stay sickened. Rand is immune to this.
@Favian: I wasn't aware your familiar was out; on top of the spore dmg from Round 1 (11dmg), Desmond and Favian take another 3d4 ⇒ (3, 2, 1) = 6 in Round 2; updating initiative tracker with Desmond. Sorry for forgetting about him; I couldn't find him on your sheet so I think I forgot about him. Also, I understand Harm's Way, but the other splitting is part of the Protector familiar archetype yes?
Koth'Vaul appears very weakened by the combined onslaught from the heroes. Favian is unable to pierce him as he tries to land a flurry of steel, except when he uses his magus powers to increase his speed, at which points he manages to beat Koth'Vaul's block by three inches and sinks his weapon deep into the fiend's belly. The demon roars, and fumes at Favian, but while blocking the magus, continues his onslaught against Rand, intent on being the only immortal left standing on this battlefield today. The fiend bends down with uncanny speed...
...and bites off the Rand's head, only to spit it out in Thrag's direction. "You're next, hammer boy!" A shower of blood explodes from Rand's corpse. The fiend's blood-soaked jaws gurgle a dark laughter and he proceeds to pound Thrag over and over...
The fiend bashes the half-orc several times, then proceeds to impale him upon one of his pincer... He drops the half-orc's corpse to the ground casually, on top of Rand's headless corpse.
