Liet-Gar steps back and whirls his weapon around, weaving it down the hallway and to all the targets far away from him. He connects with two of the enemies, though they don't drop from the damage.
Kasvot tries to step away and carefully cast a spell, but the blast goes way off target.
Dimple continues her encouragement and then flails away at the nearby festrog, just barely missing hurting it.

Niza's strike misses completely, but Fromagalli's connects. Unfortunately it isn't enough to kill or move the festrog from his spot and he isn't able to block the hall.
The Festrogs and Ghouls howl and grunt with hunger. Yellow Festrog attacks Fromagalli all out. It fails to connect on the bite, but the two claws rend flesh from the half elf even with his flickering body .

But then things turn positive for the pathfinders as two ghouls attempt to rush into the room. Both manage to avoid LGZ, using the hallway as cover, but Fromagalli and Niza each provide a killing blow to the back of their heads as they rush past, caving in their skulls. The pile of undead is beginning to mount.
The red festrog unleashes a flurry of attacks against the well defended gnome (Niza). Hoping to at least get a nice tasty bite. But the gnome is simply way to prepared for the attacks, easily ducking and dodging them with flair.

The blue festrog slips into the room, sliding between the gap and turning to snap at the flanked Niza with a drooling grin. But his bite is deflected at the last second by an invisible shield of force.
As the cyan dashed ghoul moves to go after Dimple, Liet-Gar was waiting and watching. Easily seeing over the top of his short allies, he swings his mighty weapon. With a splat, the ghoul is split in two, starting at the head and ending at the floor .
Unfortunately though, that leaves two undead in prime positions to attempt some delicious feeding on the soft tasty back line casters.
Purple unleashes bite and claw against Dimple. Everything connects, shredding the little gnome into a barely standing mess of chunky muscle and tissue . The creature gulps down a mouthful, feeling quite pleased with itself.

The last undead steps between Kasvot and the wall and also unleashes their full attack load. But the half-orc is well prepared for battle, his magic and natural talent allowing him to deftly defend himself from all attacks. The ghoul howls in anger!

"Sorry Kasvot. I'll try to keep that in mind next time." replies LGZ, sliding back to give the half-orc some room. Eyes going wide as the beast eats a chunk of Dimple, he shrieks "NOOOO SHE"S MINE!"
With a mighty cleave, he twirls again. "Oh, I mean...uh...you ok Dimple?"

Stunned by the savage assault, the cute as a button gnome stares at the grievous wound on her shoulder "That...that was my arm. You're eating part of my arm." Barely able to focus, she stumbles back toward the half elf.
He said something...What did he say? Whose his? Niza? Is he talking about Niza? Why not? She's pretty cute...I guess. And she'd always have a feather near by to tickle with. Tickle...that's a funny word. Do I have a cousin with that name? What? I have to focus. She shakes her head. She pulls a handful of shiny powder from her bag and throws it in the air. "Sparkles."
Liet-Gar steps back, but all his strikes miss. Maybe he'll get lucky and the enemies will run around wildly.
Dimple freaks a bit, but calms down enough to step away and a blast of sparkles bursts behind and encompasses two of the festrogs. It manages to get one of them in the eyes, but the other is just fashionably sparkly now.
Kasvot also steps back, blasting away at the nearby ghoul but missing again.

Niza's strike misses, but she sets up as an excellent distraction for Fromagalli's. He fakes low and then brings his bludgeoning weapon on the festrog's head with a resounding thunk. The creature seems a bit dazed, but remains a threat.
Yellow Festrog unleashes another flurry of attacks against the half-elf. It rips into him with a vicious claw and thought it was going to connect with a bite, but only managed to taste a blurry afterimage .

The Red Festrog sniffs (move) around for tasty living beings, quickly locates them and steps over (5-ft) to bite at... the half-elf, but misses completely and doesn't appear to regain its sight.

The purple one tries to finish off Dimple next. The bite and one of the claws connect, rending her a lump of bleeding goo-gnome on the floor

The last enemy unleashes another flurry vs. Kasvot. It misses with all the claws, but the bite connects for a very small nibble . Kasvot almost chuckles but then feels a cold trickle spreading from the wound throughout his body.

Niza looks at the enemies and then spits out a bit of crude elven, "Vedän heidät pois, saan Dimplen takaisin ylös!"
She strides past two of the festrogs, eyes wide with anger taunting them, "Ya want some of this! COME GET IT!!!" When she gets just out of their reach, she drops her club and speaks a simple word. Her body quickly shifts and morphs into that of an eagle. She releases an angry screech!
The purple festrog snaps at the gnome and connects, gulping down some tasty flesh .

Fromagalli's strike easily finds purchase, crushing the disgusting rotting skull of his target. It collapses to the ground and the half-elf attempts to dodge the snapping jaws of the other festrog as he falls back behind LGZ.
And the undead abomination misses... things seem to be shifting towards the positive for the pathfinders!

Mouth falling open as Dimple drops, LGZ stands idle for a moment. Unable to focus...his blade droops in his hand. At the sound of Kasvot's words, the half-elf nods...refocusing on the task.
Sliding back into the corner, he brings the blade to bare. Glancing towards the nearest two foes, he keeps elbows up as he swings with all his heart might at the two nearest Dimple's prone form.

Kazvot drops to his knees even as the ghoul falls; he anxiously grapples with his rope to retrieve an little-used wand from within. He closes his eyes briefly as he takes a deep breath, attempting to mimic things Dimple's done in the past. The silly dances can't have been the important bits... I hope... he wonders as he pokes her with the pointy end.
At the half-orc's urging, Liet-Gar steps into the corner and focuses on the ghoul mentioned. He obliterates it into a smear of goo. Then on his backswing, he manages to pierce one of the other Festrogs, but doesn't take it down and in return gets a nice face full of disease
Kasvot quickly realizes that all the silly dances were very important and he'll have to try harder to remember exactly how they went next time. Dimple rewards the half orc's effort by spraying him in the face with her dwindling blood.
The remaining Festrogs all step forward and attempt to end the pathfinders in reach. Yellow vs. LGZ. Red has to try to sniff out a target (move) but finds three tasty ones nearby. He steps over and bites at . Purple chases after Niza.

Niza connects with one of her three attacks, slashing the undead across the chest but not yet bringing it down. Unfortunately her eagle talons burst the pustules of disease on the creatures body, spraying her with disgusting goo .
Liet-Gar easily resists the disease spray and attempts to tumble away from the festrogs, but his large frame opens up a very easy window for two of them to strike . Both easily connect with the large fighter, ripping chunks of flesh out and gulping them down .

But the half-elf gives almost as good as he took, connecting solidly with the red Festrog . But the creature remains alive, preventing Fromagalli from getting in there safely to heal Dimple. The other half elf instead heals himself up a bit to hopefully get back into the fight soon.

Kasvot waves his wand around and almost gets the step, flick and twirl correct. His wand begins to glow but in his urgency to poke Dimple he stumbles just enough that the healing dissipates before connecting.
Dimple's blood spurt in response is significantly weaker than the last one.
The enemies shift into position to take best advantage of flanking and full attacking. Yellow steps over and sends a bite/claw/claw at Niza. Red moves over to get closer to the retreating pathfinders, then unleashes a bite/claw/claw at Kasvot. Lastly Purple steps up and sends a now flanking bite/claw/claw at the bird as well.

And with a flurry of bites, claws and feathers flying... Niza emerges the other side of the attacks incredibly unscathed. And then she tries to step and finds that her leg has a large gash from a claw she didn't even know landed . Kasvot easily leads all the incoming strikes into his magical shield, avoiding any more damage.

Seeing Dimple's blood staunched, LGZ grimaces. 'I do hope that means the threat of death is reduced and not confirmed...'
With a quick shake of his big head, he survey's the scene again. With the undead surrounding their Nizabird and licking Kasvot, he rushes to the far side of the room. Swinging wildly at the foe there, he calls back.
"Kasvot, take my position."

Liet-Gar rushes into the corner, swinging his weapon at Purple to distract it from the Bird sneaking up behind, who hops over and unleashes a flurry of bites and claws. All connect, ripping it to shreds and bathing the avian Niza in gooey pus .
Fromagalli rushes in and heals Dimple, stopping her (as far as anyone knows) just at the edge of death's door and closing up the spurting wound on her neck. She does not wake up though. Kasvot steps back and blasts the festrog in the face. His aim is unerringly perfect, striking a weak spot directly but not doing much more than continuing to piss off the creature.
The last two creatures appear ready to fight to the death, theirs or your own. Red and Yellow step up and attack Kasvot and Niza, respectively.

Liet-Gar swings wildly at the festrogs, but his attacks are simply too telegraphed and they both easily dodge.
Niza resists the disease again easily then steps into a flanking position and unleashes her full set of attacks. One strike connects weakly and doesn't take out the fiend. Plus, she is sprayed again by another dose of diseased pus .
Fromagalli switches tactics and instead slashes at the nearby festrog to hopefully gain the freedom to heal his allies in peace. Just as it looks like he will miss, he twists the blade and brings it across the fiend's chest, opening up a large wound. But... it does not fall. He easily resists the spray of disease.

Kasvot reaches into his vest once more, this time grabbing a bundle of herbs that he'd collected from the Sarini estate. He quickly chews them, relief showing in his eyes as their healing power eases just the edge off of the damage from the festrog's attack. Unfortunately, the extra effort to chew the herbs sends Kasvot to the ground.
Among the poisonous plants in the Sarini garden, you found four potent medicinal plants, each of which has a different effect. You collected a bundle of leaves and roots from each of these plants for future use. You may chew a bundle of plants as a standard action to produce one of the following effects. Once you use one of the bundles, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
• Heal 1d4+1 points of damage.
Kasvot's anger takes over, keeping him conscious just long enough to chew up some weeds. He collapses to the ground with a dandelion stuck between his teeth. But... he seems to not be still in danger of death at least.
The festrogs, though close to eternal rest, seem completely unable to stop attacking the living.
Yellow unleashes a flurry vs. the Bird, but can't land a single blow. It at least understands enough though to step to the side to get out of flanking.

Red attacks Fromagalli all out. It rips flesh free with a bite and grabs and pulls more off with a claw, but just as it goes to tear his throat out and finish him off, it manages to just barely miss and grab at the blurry edge supplied by his magic . The sturdy half-elf is somehow still alive!

I'd also uh... like to point out that rerolls or boons or anything else special anybody can pull off at this point might be wise to use to finish this before the enemy gets a chance to act again. We missed a Player Death this round only because of a 20% miss chance roll in Fromagalli's favor.
