The last two posts are now invalid, with the exemption of the rolls regarding the Carrion King, which are repurposed for normal attacks.
The Carrion King swings his axe at Ohrmizd. An axe that is surprisingly small for that large gnoll, but impressive nonetheless. The head of it shaped like a human skull, with the large, sharp blades coming out of the sight. Even though the place is only dimly lit, the red gems the steel skull has for eyes have a glow. And Ohrmizd gets to feel that this axe was made with hate for humans, as it cuts through his flesh and bone.
Axe:11 + 17 - 1 = 272d6 + 18 + 2d6 ⇒ (1, 6) + 18 + (6, 2) = 33 Axe:16 + 12 - 1 = 272d6 + 18 + 2d6 ⇒ (5, 2) + 18 + (3, 2) = 30
One gnoll steps up and presenting an unholy symbol of rovagug, casts a spell on the Carrion king.

The axe catches Ohrmizd twice, not even Sarenrae's shield can save him. As the axe opens his right cheek then his belly, he falls to the ground bleeding all around.
Ok, the map shows Ohrmizd in the middle of the gnolls; if I'm understanding the retcon right, that didn't actually happen, and he on the floor unconscious in the pink square (under Khedron), right... Given that, see where I've put your fireball template Heshan?
Omari commands Kheldon "Defend", pointing at the fallen Ohrmizd. As Khedron moves forward to cover the broken shell of a holy warrior, Omari calls on Erastil's wrath again, attempting to burn the unclean priest(s) of Rovagug. (presumably the pink gnolls are priests, because CLW has touch range)
Standard Action Omari - Cast Burst of Radiance (yellow circle)

"Grab Ohrmizd, and get the hell out of here guys!" - Roryx roars at the others - "I'll hold them!" - he finishes with the words of a spell, even as his weapon brims with magic. Then he stands his ground.
Swift Arcane Pool on mace. Then casting Anticipate Thoughts (Will Save DC14) on the big bad Carrion King.
Anticipate Thoughts:
This spell taps into the target’s mind so you get an impression of the actions it will take. You gain a +2 insight bonus to AC against the target’s attacks. If the target fails its Will save, you also see how the target will react to your attacks, and the bonus applies on your attack rolls and damage rolls against the target. These bonuses apply only while the target is within range of the spell, though if it goes out of range, the bonuses return once it’s back in range. Whenever the target misses you with an attack, the spell’s bonuses increase by 1 until the spell ends (to a maximum of +5).

The Carrion king is blinded by Ohrmizd's spell. One of the clerics is taken down by the fire.
The Carrion King moves up to Roryx anyway, and sniffs out his position. The axe comes down and misses Roryx by an inch.
Mirror Image has no effect on blinded enemies.

Foxy, I think we are missing the Will save from the CK? Against Anticipate Thoughts.
"You missed!" - Roryx snarled and invoked magical frost to enhance his own attacks - "My turn now"
Casting Frostbite - using Spell Combat, and then Speelstrike. I think blind creatures, even with scent are not entitled AoO, but in any case:
Concentration check:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Attack:1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 - 2 = 21(+3 if CK fails his saving throw vs. Anticipate Thoughts) Damage if it hits:1d8 + 13 + 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 13 + (6) + 5 = 26(+3 if CK fails his saving throw vs. Anticipate Thoughts)
Attack:1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 11 - 2 = 14(+3 if CK fails his saving throw vs. Anticipate Thoughts) - vs blind opponent could be a hit. Fingers crossed.
Damage if it hits:1d8 + 13 + 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 13 + (6) + 5 = 28(+3 if CK fails his saving throw vs. Anticipate Thoughts)
If any of these attacks hit, CK is Fatigued (can neither run nor charge and takes a –2 penalty to Strength and Dexterity.)

"Oh, th-thanks..." Ohrmizd recovers consciousness "Man... never been as happy to see those little black eyes of yours!"
Concentrate (to cast defensively just in case) DC 17:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 CLW:1d8 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
"Sarenrae, I promise to be more merciful and humble if you take me out of this one..." Ohrmizd heals himself further then switches his judgement to fast healing "...and I promise to not stand again between good women and Man"
If he sees Khedron and Roryx offer enough protection to stand up safely, he does so.

The Carrion King is well armored and has a thick skin. None of Omaris and Khedron's attacks come through. Roryx gets one painful attack in and Heshan hits with the magic missile.
"<Rokova get in here." the carrion king commands in gnoll. Then he swings the axe at Ohrmizd again. "You stay down."
Not wanting to waste attacks on magical clones the other two attacks go at Khedron.

"Ohrmizd..." - Roryx snarled as his years long friend is felled by the terrible attack - "No! You will pay!" - he adds, eyes and hands sparkling with electricity.
Using Spellstrike and Spell Combat to cast Shocking Grasp. Frostbite charges dissipate I think... Lesson learned if we survive = use Shocking Grasp first...
Khedron keeps fruitlessly waving his antlers at the Carrion King. But Omari lands a lucky shot at the neck artery, making the gnoll's blood shoot out like a fountain. Roryx hits the gnoll with sizzling electricity, sending convulsions through his body, until he falls down to his knees and then face first into the ground. The smell of burnt fur and flesh fills the tunnel.

The next round felt like it was playing in slow motion. One moment Ohrmizd was up and about. And the next, his head had de-attached from his body.
All he could do for that moment was to leave his mouth agape... all while electricity began to course through his body. That is until it centered on his hands where it was unleashed with a thrust of his hands. And the area where most of the remaining gnolls stood would erupt in a storm of lightning.
And from within the tunnel was Heshan with a more stern expression on his face. Fire or electricity, he would become Sarenrae's next source of her wrath.
Omari barks at Manuun "He's dead, now fight or we'll join him!", as he works his bow. Khedron, badly hurt, withdraws from the front line...
I think Roryx can hold his spot for a couple of turns - or at least I hope he can. Khedron's at 13 hp, and I suspect that 1 hit from those goons will drop him.
Khedron - full round action, withdraw
Omari - full round action, attack with rapid shot at the closest unchoses
After seeing the hopelessness of the situation, Omaris constant calls finally reach Manuun. The little man looks confused at the priest, and what he is pointing at, but when he sees the row of Unchosen some reflexes finally kick in.
Ohrmizd and Manuun take down the gnoll in the front. Heshan shoots the next. That one steps up to Roryx and claws at him while the others push from behind.
Omari gets one arrow to hit, Manuun is not himself and misses. Roryx smashes the big meanie into pulp and Heshan shoots the last one out of her shoes.
That leaves no target in sight and no more gnolls come filling the tunnel. But it is already pretty full with a pile of six dead or dying large gnolls blocking the entrance now.
AC 13 (18), touch 13 (17), flat-footed 11 (14) hp 80/103 F +11 R +12 W +14
By the time it was over, Heshan was breathing heavily. He looked down and the realization had dawned on him. He barely noticed Omari and turned towards him a few seconds after the call. "Yeah... but from the previous fight..."
There are half a dozen normal sized gnolls that lie around with burnt flesh and fur. Even in the haze the rage leaves Manuun in, he notices that the cloaked figure is nowhere to be seen among the dead nor otherwise. Even the oversized vermin has retreated and is not seen anymore.
"Manuun, get back here before that big bug comes back!"
Once the party has gathered in, Omari will channel to heal the wounded, and then start distributing wand charges as needed (Khedron will definitely need some.)
Current AC: 24 <> HP: 62/62 (Swiper: 31/31) <> Effects:
”Gather Ohrmizd’s body, and loot the bodies of our adversaries. I stand watch” - Roryx speaks calmly - ”Manuun get back here, no point in getting yourself killed”
