Daedîn unloads a cold iron storm on the yellow morlock first; if it drops, he’ll target orange…

Round #1: AC 28, low-light vision, scent

As the yellow and orange-eyed morlocks approach his charge, Tiddles’ scent and low-light vision allow him to execute the conditions of his readied action.

Tiddles tail + power attack vs Orange: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 11 - 2 + 1 = 23
damage: 3d8 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (3, 6, 6) + 7 + 4 = 26

If it hits, trip attempt CMB: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20

Teric sees Pai takes to the skies and nods to her. "Good idea, my dear." Teric motions and wills himself up into the air about 40 feet. He squints into the darkness and floats out to take better stock of the battlefield.

Teric Fly: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27

Tiddles whacks an incoming morlock with his spiked tail, but the morlock stays on his feet despite the impressive wound.

Teric takes to the air looking for a better vantage point, but finds that it's pretty dark away from his allies. Only Daedîn, Thoriel and Aeliah have active light sources.

Daedîn's arrows fell the two morlocks engaging Tiddles. One missed, but enough damage done with Tiddles' help.

The bold may act!

If you're not flying, the floor is Difficult Terrain unless you pass a DC15 acrobatics check at the start of your turn as a free action.

It's dark.

Pai casts True Seeing, knowing the spell will cut through the darkness and allow her to assist next round.

As the big beasts burrow under the ground, Thoriel takes a moment to reflect on what they might be.

Kn. Planes: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 22

"Ichor sharks, or Xenarth as others call them. A type of demon not unlike a bulette."

Expecting one might reappear from under the ground to attack, Thoriel charges up her wand and readies to strike at one should it burst into range of her sword.

Spell Combat. Shocking Grasp. Ready Attack.
Shocking Grasp via +1 Cold Iron Scimitar: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (5) + 17 = 22 Damage: 1d6 + 10 + 5d6 ⇒ (4) + 10 + (6, 5, 2, 6, 1) = 34

Kn. Planes (DC 20): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

"Huh, I'll take your word for it Thoriel," Nina calls, having been unable to identify the strange thing herself before it disappeared into the earth. "Come on Inky, take us up! When one of those things surfaces, we go back down and skewer it!"

As Inky obliges, Nina uses her innate gnomish powers to conjure four small lights that circle nearby and further illuminate some of the area.
_______

Nina will use her SLA to cast Dancing Lights~

"You got it," Inky agrees as she flaps her wings and ascends into the air, rising to match the height of Teric and the others before flying forward a bit to bring herself closer to Aeliah and the menagerie down below.

Fly (If Needed; Heroism): 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 2 = 22
______________

Ascend to a height of 40' and then move forward another 20'~

Pai casts a spell to cut through the darkness and reveal all to her.

Nina takes to the air on Inky and throws a few gnomish lights up. For ease of play, consider the Dancing Lights to be sufficient to remove any darkness-related concealment.

Thoriel readies an attack, her scimitar shrouded in sparking blue lightning.

There's a rumbling noise, and Daedîn and Thoriel feel the ground shake beneath them. Besides Daedîn a shark-like fin breaks the surface, followed by the rest of one of the huge, armour-plated xenarths! The monster opens its massive, tooth-filled maw and snaps at the elf...

bite vs Daedîn: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32damage: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (3, 5) + 13 = 21

...the beast draws blood, and its venomous saliva courses through Daedîn body. The xenarth roars in pleasure, and the morlocks screech in reply.

Daedîn attempt a DC23 Fort save vs poison.

Round #2: AC 28, low-light vision, scent

Tiddles acrobatics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

Tiddles needs no additional command from his mistress to advance 10’ of move equivalents to defend Daedîn.

Movement probably provokes

Tiddles tail + power attack vs Orange: 1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 2 = 20
damage: 3d8 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (2, 2, 6) + 7 + 4 = 21

If it hits, trip attempt CMB: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18

Round #2: AC 19, wayfinder (20’ normal light, 20’ dim) longstrider, fly (5 mins), SNA IV (2/10)

Croc B double moves 40’ of move-equivalents over the difficult terrain to flank with Croc D.

Croc C full attacks the Blue-eyed morlock.

Croc C on Blue: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 2 = 19
damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 2 = 9

If it hits, grab on Blue: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 2 = 25

Croc C tail slap on Blue: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
damage: 1d12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 2 = 12

Croc D then moves in 20’ of move equivalents to help with the Blue-eyed morlock.

Croc D + flank on Blue: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 27
damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 2 = 7

If it hits, grab on Blue: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 11 + 2 = 17

Croc A also double-moves to the east, but can’t get into the fight just yet.

Aeliah slows her flight, losing an additional 5’ of movement as she negotiates a simple 45º degree turn to the right, flying a total of 25’ of move equivalents. (single fly-move, no fly check required)

She then ✨casts burst of radiance on the Yellow bulette-demon.

SR if required: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22

DC 18 Reflex or blinded for 1d4 ⇒ 2 rounds

If the save is successful, dazzled for the same number of rounds.

Also if evil, good damage: 5d4 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 4, 2) = 12 no save

Tiddles rushes to Daedîn's aid. As big as the dinosaur is, he's dwarfed by the demonic bulette.

AoO vs Tiddles: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (2) + 19 = 21damage: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (3, 6) + 13 = 22

Though the xenarth snaps at Tiddles, its attention is mostly on the tasty elf and Tiddles gets in closer. The stegosaur swings its thagomizer, but it glances off the xenarth's thick, plated hide. What's worse, Tiddles is coated in acidic slime that burns away at him!

acid damage: 3d8 ⇒ (8, 5, 1) = 14 DC23 Reflex save avoids the damage

The crocs swarm the morlocks, and an unfortunate morlock suffers a brace of bites and ends up in the jaws of one of the summoned animals.

Aeliah conjures a burst of holy light...

SR checks are needed - you passed the check.

reflex DC18: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

...the xenarth shuts its eyes just in time, but can't avoid being burned by the burst of radiance. It roars in pain and anger!

The morlocks fight back...

blue vs croc, club: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5blue vs croc, bite: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

confirm?: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25crit damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Blue-eyes brains the croc biting him - and for good measure bites back against another of the lizards as his fellows swarm it.

pink vs croc, club, swarm: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 = 11damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 6 + (3) = 12
pink vs croc, bite, swarm: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 + 2 = 20damage: 1d4 + 2 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 2 + (6) = 11
purple vs croc, club, swarm: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 = 11damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 6 + (6) = 15
purple vs croc, bite, swarm: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 + 2 = 21damage: 1d4 + 2 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 2 + (4) = 8

A second croc gets savagely bitten, but it's still in the fight.

blue jump: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (15) + 19 = 34
cyan jump: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (4) + 19 = 23

Two more morlocks launch themselves from the rocks, swinging for Tiddles.

blue club vs tiddles, swarm, leap: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 21damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 6 + (4) = 14
cyan club vs tiddles, swarm, leap: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 29damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 6 + (1) = 11

One of the brutes injures Tiddles, but the other whacks his club against the stegosaur's dorsal plates to no effect.

The second xenarth emerges right underneath one of Aeliah's crocs!

As far as I can tell there are no rules covering this - so I am going to move the croc into the nearest empty squares that can contain it.

bite vs croc b: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (15) + 19 = 34damage: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (1, 3) + 13 = 17
claw vs croc b: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (7) + 19 = 26damage: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
claw vs croc b: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (18) + 19 = 37damage: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

The crocodile is torn to pieces by the emerging xenarth, who is denied a meal when the summoned animal simply vanishes.

Round #2 (cont): AC 28, ☤ 65/76 hp

Reflex: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

The impromptu acid bath just adds a *shine* to the stegosaur's tough skin and scales.

However, after seeing the Xenarth's carry-on over a little bit of light, Tiddles chooses not to react to the morlocks' surprise attack -- yet.

Teric twists his hands and the familiar balls of frozen lightning crackle to life. Two speed towards the xenarth attacking Tiddles, while one tries to punish the nearby morlocks. As he directs the balls, he flips his wrist and his persistent metamagic rod snaps into his hand.

Cold Ball Lightning vs Yellow (Reflex DC24 negates): 3d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 5) = 10

Fort Save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24

Daedîn resists the poison, stepping back 5’ NE, and bombards the beast with a cold iron barrage…

Can’t fail the DC15 Acrobatics check…

Teric, only one SR check is needed per spell per target; you beat Yellow Xenarth's Spell Resistance on your first roll so the Ball Lightning works against it (aside from its other resistances and saving throws).

Teric throws cold lightning balls...

yellow reflex DC24: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
yellow reflex DC24: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
cyan reflex DC24: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28

...one of the balls strikes a xenarth, but does not seem to harm it. The huge beast is surprisingly nimble and dodges the second orb; so too does the morlock targeted by the third orb.

To the west at the bottom of the map, another force of morlocks appears. They dash across the ruins, leaping, or running on all-fours.

Daedîn opens fire on the ichor shark that bit him - and the venom is still coursing through him. Two arrows pierce the beast's hide, but all four are destroyed by the acidic ichor. You posted early, but no problem ;)

Daedîn needs another save vs poison - it's one of those "2 saves to end" poisons.

My bad, GM, old brains…

Fort Save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16

Use my folio reroll

Fort Save (folio reroll): 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 12 + 1 = 28

Seeing that Teric's lightning doesn't seem to harm the Xenarth and that its acidic body destroys Daedin's arrows, Thoriel decides to use her electrified blade against the nearest morlocks instead.

"Friendly morlocks, you say? Well, any enemy of these nasty xenarths is a friend in my books, at least!"

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32
Unperturbed by the terrain, the agile elf skips forward and lunges with her crackling blade.
5' step. Lunge. Spellstrike vs. injured blue, moving to light blue if that falls in between strikes.

Crit Confirm 2nd attack: 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 17 - 2 = 19 Crit Damage: 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15

I made too many 'blue' morlocks - the injured one is the dark blue morlock fighting the crocs. Thoriel has ended any potential for confusion though ;)

Pai spots potential allies approaching.

Daedîn fights off the demonic venom.

Thoriel thinks better of attacking the ichor shark having seen how it reacted - or didn't - to Teric's magical attack and Daedîn's barbs. She lunges a nearby morlock who explodes in flash of lightning, then wounds a second with a follow-up slash.

You only get a 'free' attack with spellstrike on the round that you cast a touch-range spell, not when holding a charge. The iterative attack (at a net bonus of +12) does not confirm. (You could spellcombat and spellstrike a new spell after hitting with the held charge, but would need to declare the intention to do so on your turn).

Not knowing what exactly to do against these two monstrous beast, Pai decides to use a Silent Image to create a metal cage to land and ‘trap’ the uninsured red one inside the cage.

Will DC 19 once interacted with. I figure it will buy us a round of no attacks from red, if nothing else.

Noticing most of his companions are taking to the air, Daedîn murmurs over to Thoriel, ”I guess it’s up to us Elves, and my friend Tiddles here, to handle the grunt work, m’Lady…let’s hope we’re up to it…”

Delaying Nina + Inky

Pai throws a cage around a xenarth. Will make a save on Big Red's turn. Note that the crocs will need to make saves too, if directed to attack the xenarth. They will go for the morlocks otherwise.

Meanwhile the other ichor shark disregards Tiddles (who has failed to harm the larger beast) and pursues the elven archer with the biting blessed arrows...

bite vs Daedîn, dazzled: 1d20 + 19 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 19 - 1 = 27damage: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (5, 5) + 13 = 23

The xenarths are somewhat smarter than bulettes.

"Hey whoa whoa, no, we can't let that thing eat ! Inky, get us down there so I can use my magic!"

Inky groans. "You're so demanding! Hold on!"

The eidolon wheels around and flies over closer to the others before descending down to the ground as quickly as she can go. (Double Move).

Hoping to help turn the tide, Nina conjures a hastening spell to get as many of her allies as she can.

From her current position Nina should, I think, be able to tag Tiddles, Daedîn, Thoriel, Inky, and herself.

"Either beat feet or get close," Inky snarls out to everyone else on the ground as she readies to do what she can to defend Nina and her allies.

Round #3: AC 29, haste (1/8), low-light vision, scent

With the xenarth having attacked his charge, Tiddles knows his duty.

Tiddles tail - power attack + haste vs Yellow: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 11 - 2 + 1 = 25

Croc D holds her ground, and full attacks the purple morlock.

Croc A Will DC 19 vs Pai’s cage: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

Thinking the Red xenarth is caged, Croc A does an about-face and moves 10 feet to the N-N-W to engage cyan.

Croc A’s movement provokes, if the Red xenarth thinks it is uncaged, and therefore free to take AoOs

Croc A + flank on Cyan: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 23

Round #3: AC 19, wayfinder (20’ normal light, 20’ dim) longstrider, fly (5 mins), SNA IV (3/10)

Upset that she can’t do more to help Daedîn this round, Aeliah zooms 35’ to the N-N-W, losing 5’ of altitude as she travels in a straight line.

From there she again ✨casts burst of radiance on the Yellow bulette-demon.

If the save is successful, dazzled for the same number of rounds. Don’t know if it stacks, or replaces the dazzled duration, or neither of those things.

Also if evil, good damage: 5d4 ⇒ (4, 3, 2, 3, 2) = 14 no save

Sorry, just got back from my sleep study and there was no internet there last night...

Fort Save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26

While resisting the beast's poison for now, Daedîn hisses in pain as its claws and teeth rip into him. Murmuring, "Can't take another hit like that," as he moves back 5', the Elf unleashes another volley of cold iron at the rat bastard...

Just noticed that this my favored enemy (evil outsider)

If that doesn't take it down, Daedîn might not be long for this world...

Is anyone else having timeout issues on this site? It took me 4 tries to finish the above post...kept saying timeout and ate what I'd posted before I finally got it to catch. I almost missed my 1-hour editing window...

Getting ahead of yourself there, Daedîn. Just the fort save needed at the moment. You don't act again till the top of round 4. Moved you back to your previous square.

Tiddles' spiked tail stabs through the ichor shark's plate-like hide. It's a mighty blow, but the fiend resists the full force. Tiddles is again coated in sticky-icky acid.

DC23 Reflex save or suffer acid damage: 3d8 ⇒ (3, 3, 6) = 12

Big Red Will DC19: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

The summoned crocs continue the fight. The pink and purple-eyes morlocks evade the attacks. As the other croc is fooled by Pai's trickery and turns to engage other targets, the xenarth strikes at its tail. The fiend cares nought for any barrier, and finds that in fact it is not inhibited at all...

xenarth aoo vs croc a: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (9) + 19 = 28damage: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (4, 6) + 13 = 23

...and almost bites the reptile's tail off. The crocodile manages to escape, and in it's own pain and anger retaliates by taking a chunk out of a morlock. The morlock is grievously wounded, but clings on to life and forces its way out of the croc's jaws.

Aeliah calls on all her reserves of power to try to save Daedîn from deadly peril.

Big yellow Ref DC18: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21

Her spell burns the xenarth, but the creature buries its head in the dirt for a split second to escape more serious injury to its eyes. Dazzled durations will run concurrently; the condition does not stack in strength.

purple vs croc d, swarm, club: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 7 + 2 = 29damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 6 + (5) = 15

Doesn't need a confirmation roll, that dispatches the croc.

The swarming morlocks finish one of the crocs off.

pink jump: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (4) + 19 = 23
blue jump: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (6) + 19 = 25

And then the last crocodile vanishes, battered by leaping morlocks.

The second xenarth thunders across the ruined ground.

red bite vs Thoriel, flank: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 19 + 2 = 36damage: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (1, 3) + 13 = 17

Despite her impressive defences, Thoriel faces a xenarth on two flanks - and the newcomer darts in to bite her. Its searing venom burns at her insides.

Thoriel attempt a DC23 Fort save vs poison.

"Bah!" Teric exclaims as he sees the xenarth shrug off his cold magic. He flicks his fingers and the balls of frozen lightning hurtle towards the closest pair of morlocks. Then he makes an elaborate throwing motion towards the yellow xenarth and fire erupts behind it.

Tiddles Reflex DC 23 vs acid: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

Tiddles *ROARS* his pain this time, as the acid penetrates his supersaturated skin.

"You tough enough to handle so can help Daedîn, Tiddles. Momma proud of you."

Thoriel lets out a short squeal of pain, as the creature manages to bite into her side, drawing blood. Of more concern than the flesh wound is the concerning sting of what feels like venom squirting into her flesh.

FORT 23: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 2 = 19

Thoriel suffers from the xenarth toxin -

CON damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

as Tiddles is burned by the acidic ichor.

Teric throws cold and fire around...

yellow ref DC23: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

Two morlocks fall, and a xenarth is burned despite its innate resistance.

The second force of morlocks arrives, swarming over your foes!

This force is not added to the map but has two beneficial effects. First, you are always flanking any enemy. Second, the xenarths can no longer take any AoOs against you.

Daedîn I'll take your rolls as above.

Daedîn launches a desperate volley at the xenarths, felling the closest and injuring the second! 5 arrows destroyed.

Round #4: AC 19, wayfinder (20’ normal light, 20’ dim) longstrider, fly (5 mins)

“Tiddles, Down!”

Aeliah plans to put her dinosaur companion into delay.

She then ✨casts cure moderate wounds, shoots sub-vertically to the ground 35' at full speed, and begins waving her arms around to attract the xenarth’s attention, like it’s a simple territorial beast such as a lion, bull or aurochs.

“You know burny light got you mate? Me did that in Ketephys’ Name!”

The druidess ensures she strikes Daedîn with her flapping limbs to impart the healing spell.

cure moderate wounds on Daedîn: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (7, 8) + 10 = 25

Watching as Daedin's arrows get destroyed by the xenarth's corrosive hide, Thoriel looks down at her precious sword. "I've spent to much on this blade to watch it get ruined...it's almost like a close friend to me now."

Instead, she charges up her bare hand with dark energy and steps forward to try and touch the demonic bulette.

Vampiric Touch.

"Come on Inky, we can't let Thoriel stand up there alone," Nina remarks softly. As Inky steps up, Nina adopts a defensive position as she attempts to cast another spell...

...and attempts to fling a snowball at Big Red!

"This is sooooo bad..." Inky groans as she readies herself to defend Nina and Thoriel...

Pai didn’t have any good options to help with this red monstrous creature. She does pull a wand, however and blasts away with it.

Using 5th level wand of magic Missiles. I’m not sure what the modifier to beat SR is with this. As such, I’ll just roll a d20 and let the GM add the modifiers.

SR roll 1d20 ⇒ 2

Damage 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 2, 3) + 3 = 12

Aeliah dives down to Daedîn's side whilst making herself look and sound like the biggest, fiercest animal around, and calling off Tiddles. She alleviates some of Daedin's hurts, whilst the archer fights off the toxin.

Thoriel favours necromancy over her precious sword. With a deft touch she saps the life force of the xenarth to bolster her own, and flicks off the caustic ichor before it can burn her hands. But the burning in her body is harder to resist, and continues to eat away at her from the inside.

CON damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Nina hurls an icy blast at the xenarth, but it impacts as harmlessly as a mundane snowball. Did not beat SR. Inky stands ready to defend.

Pai tries a wand, but its magic is not sufficient to breach the xenarth's defence. Wands operate at their CL for SR checks.

pink jump: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (14) + 19 = 33
purple jump: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (14) + 19 = 33

The last pair of morlocks leap into your midst, swinging their clubs at Nina as they sail over her head.

pink club vs Nina, leap, flank: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 19
purple club vs Nina, leap, flank: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 22

Neither is able to land a blow, but they stand threatening. The xenarth continues its attacks against Thoriel

bite: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35
claw: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35
claw: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24

Without the benefit of flanking allies, the ichor shark cannot finish the agile magus off.

Daedîn murmurs, ”Hold on, Thoriel,” as he promptly unleashes more cold iron at the demonic land shark…

If the xenarth drops before the attack is done, he’ll target the nearest morlock (-2 to hit/damage)

Teric flicks his fingers and the balls of frozen lightning hurtles towards the last pair of morlocks. Then he points at the xenarth and fire streams out at it. The fire continues to snake around though to the morlocks.

Teric blasts the morlocks, injuring both and slowing their reactions.

You're just a little too far up in the air to hit the xenarth with Burning Arc, your range is 50' with that spell.

Daedîn steps back and mercilessly finishes both the ichor shark and the enemy morlocks in a single volley. Two arrows destroyed.

Out of combat!

But Thoriel still needs to deal with a potentially deadly poison.

Party status

Daedîn, -45hp
Thoriel, -39hp (19/47), poisoned, -4CON, Fort save needed (3/6)
Tiddles, -23hp

As the friendly morlocks gather round, Thoriel still suffers from the caustic venom...

Thoriel needs to attempt up to 4 more Fort saves. Since each failed save deals 1d3 CON damage (and each 2 points of CON damage reduces current and max hp as well as inflicting -1 on Fort saves) it could still kill her.

“Me have scroll of three lesser restoration but casty time won’t not ‘mediating help Thoriel.”

Aeliah ✨casts cure moderate wounds and flits 30’ of move equivalents to land beside Thoriel and touch her shoulder.

cure moderate wounds on Thoriel: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (6, 4) + 10 = 20

Having offered Thoriel and Daedîn her antitoxin before combat broke out, Aeliah points to a belt pouch on the front of her belt.

“The chalky bottle in there antitoxin. You can take out and drink if want, Thoriel. Me not got time do it for you.”

"Thank you Aeliah!" Thoriel's usually melodic voice sounds a bit harsh and strained as she gratefully receives the healing from her friend. The pale beauty of her face looks uncharacteristically waxen and laced with the shadow of dark veins below its surface. The twinkle in her violet eyes has been momentarily replaced with a weariness rarely seen in the vibrant elf.

"I think I have a bottle of my own here somewhere, now where did I put it...?" Reaching back to her pack, she withdraws the antitoxin and downs it with one slightly shaking hand, which is also noticeably laced with the same dark, poison-laden blood vessels beneath its smooth skin.

4 CON damage, heroism, antitoxin.
FORT 23: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 8 + 2 + 5 = 31
FORT 23: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 2 + 5 = 28

"I feel much better, although still a little bit weak. That's one beast I never care to have to deal with again!" The magus, her hand looking more steady now, and her skin starting to regain its healthy appearance, digs in her pack once more, this time retrieving a scroll. Handing it to Aeliah, she smiles. "This should perk me up a bit more, if you wouldn't mind?"

Lesser Restoration: 1d4 ⇒ 4

"Ahh, yes much better." Her eyes twinkle once more as she stretches and shakes her limbs a little to limber up after the ordeal of being poisoned. "Assuming we make it back in one piece, drinks are on me after we're done here. Apart from all the healing and other help, I still owe you for that lovely bottle of red you had sent to my room after our last mission."

Teric floats back down to the ground and pulls out a healing wand. He offers to use it to help the injured. "Excellent work everyone. Nasty things. It seems the morlocks are divided."

He turns to one of the 'friendly' morlocks. "Thank you for you help. Do you understand our speech? I am named Teric. Who are you?" He motions to himself and smiles at one of them.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (8) + 20 = 28

Feel free to roll CLW yourself. I also have a wand of Infernal Healing.
