Ranalus takes only 3 damage because he has constant DR 10/Cold Iron (unless their attacks count as Cold Iron). It's a pretty nice ability from Feysworn, almost as good as DR 10/-. He is lousy at dealing damage, but he has a few neat tricks and that is one of them.
The giant aberration's claw is barely a scratch.

Ranalus smirks and keeps casting.
The detective takes a quick step back and snaps off a pair of arrows. Hoping to drop at least one of the gugs, he focuses his attention on the most wounded.

No. You can likely find the conditions under the Rogue class. Lasts for one full round. -2 AC and attack penalty, but -6 to both against Slash.
The leader casts a spell, and the area around most of the party becomes full of a cold, dark, greasy miasma.
Good party members take 5d8 ⇒ (6, 5, 3, 6, 5) = 25 damage (will DC 18 for half damage) and are sickened for 1d4 ⇒ 3 rounds. The will save also can negate sickened.
Neutral party members take half that damage, and will not be sickened.
Slash is out of range.
The rest of the party is up.
Everyone please post your will save at the start of your turn. (Fendel can also post a save now, rather than waiting for your turn)

Arcturus cowers as he's hit with the cloying, evil dark energy, but he just feels a tingle of pain for a moment.
Will:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35 Deathless armor quality absorbs 10 points. So, only 2 pts damage.

Arcturus incants a spell, which causes a burst of shimmering holy energy to erupt near the center of the cave.

Ranalus is Neutral, so he takes 6 damage.
He finishes his spell. Three shadows appear.
"Kill that one," he says, pointing to the leader.
I assume the leader became visible when it cast the spell?
The gug leader can take AOOs on the shadows as they close, but unless its claws count as magic weapons, it can't affect them. They are AC 15, incorporeal, and have 19 HP.
So probably 10 Str damage, I would guess, unless it has Mage Armor and/or Shield up. In which case I'd redirect the shadows to the other gugs next round.
Ranalus still gets his own turn... he draws his rapier and stabs at the gug in front of him. Taking the +2's from Blessing of Fervor.
Attack vs Pink, BoF:1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 2 = 25 Damage:1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 Well, he hit it for more damage than it hit him, anyway. That would be a very long duel. His AC is 29.

Leaving the smaller gugs to the others Slash spring attacks the larger, flanking with a shadow. He adopts the +2s from the BoF as he springs in and attacks. But his movement continues as he springs back out of the room and around the corner.
If that hits he also gets Bleeding Attack: 6 bleed damage/round, Crippling Strike: 2 points of Strength damage, and Double Debilitation: Bewildered (-2 to AC, -6 vs Slash) and Disoriented (-2 to hit, -6 vs Slash) Also Bleed damage might cause a concentration roll to cast? can't recall.

Arcturus' AC is 27 with Magic Circle vs Evil and he has the Eruptive Pustules going. The gugs that hit Arc take 1d6 acid dmg per hit & need to save against being sickened (DC 15 Fort). Everyone except Slash is in the radius of the Magic Circle/Evil.
Eruptive Pustules:
Any creature that strikes you with its body or a handheld weapon deals normal damage, but at the same time the attacker takes 1d6 points of acid damage and must save or be sickened for 1 round. If the attack against you is a critical hit, the attacker must save or be nauseated instead of sickened. This damage can harm a swarm.
Magic Circle Against Evil, 10' from Arcturus:
All creatures within the area gain the effects of a protection from evil spell, and evil summoned creatures cannot enter the area either. Creatures in the area, or who later enter the area, receive only one attempt to suppress effects that are controlling them. If successful, such effects are suppressed as long as they remain in the area.
No one attacked Arcturus, so the eruptive pustules do not matter. However, the magic circle will change the AC of several of your companions. The +2 to AC of most of your team does not change the results of any of the attacks.
(If I've missed anything else that might be relevant, please let me know. At this level, the GM can't possibly keep up with everything...)

The +2 AC would prevent one of the attacks from hitting Ranalus, but since his DR blocks all of the damage from each hit, it's a moot point.
So, for clarification, the yellow gug 5' stepped through the stone? It was in the Northwest corner before, and now it is in the southeast even though there is a wall in the way.
The detective is clearly caught off guard by the gug's speed. Never realized how fast they were. He takes a moment to study how this opponent moves as he takes a step back of his own, then fires an arrow.
So, for clarification, the yellow gug 5' stepped through the stone? It was in the Northwest corner before, and now it is in the southeast even though there is a wall in the way.
Ah, you are right, the rules do say you can't 5 foot step around a corner. I think that may be applicable here, since the one quadrant is almost entirely full.
The yellow gug instead 5 foot steps across. He still attacks Fendel.
The +2 AC would prevent one of the attacks from hitting Ranalus, but since his DR blocks all of the damage from each hit, it's a moot point.
27+2=29, so 26, 25, and 25 do not hit, but 30 and 33 still do... If there is something else like a spell you have cast changing your AC, you should change your header to include it in the AC area as temp AC.

The Blessing of Fervor bonus can change round-to-round so I included my current AC (29 without Magic Circle) at the bottom of my last Gameplay post. If you would rather, I can change my header every round depending on what Fervor bonus I take.

OK, that is fine to note at the end of your post. I believed that number you listed included the magic circle, because I interpreted your last turn to say you were using the +2 on attacks from Blessing of Fervor. As you said, it doesn't actually change anything this turn, but it's good to still work out the details.

Ranalus's shadows take AOOs on the gug leader as it moves.
It was adjacent to all of them and did not Withdraw, since it attacked.

Whoops! Earlier I misread Ranalus' name for Arcturus'. How I did that, I don't know.
I increased the size of the creatures on the map a bit to better fit in a 5' section of a 10' square. Also, with my eyesight and only using a little phone, they were a bit hard to see.
Arcturus turns and notices Rogar looking ill.
"Are you alright? You look greener than our half-orc companion. We'll take these monstrosities down then get you feeling better."
Arcturus flashes Rogar a wink and a smile.
Arcturus turns to focus on the little yellow gug. He gets a rush of energy from the blessing of fervor and speeds up his attacks. He slashes and jabs wildly with the wicked polearm.

Arcturus lowers his glaive for a moment as he looks over in shock at the shadows tearing into the corpse of the big gug.
"By the gods... is... is that big gug turning incorporeal!?! Oh, no! It's turning into a shadow!!!" Will sanity check:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32 Link to Sanity rules.
"Oh, wait... No, it isn't. Phew."
He sighs in relief.
"Must've just been my imagination."
He hoists his glaive back into attack position, gripping the shaft tight.
By sanity check, I meant the informal sense of discussing the rules about create spawn with me in the discussion thread. It's amazing how well that misunderstanding matched with events, though... :)

"I think I'm alright."
Arcturus says as he rubs the back of his head.
"I took a small hit with that burst of negative energy. Just a strange tingling sensation and a small headache. It'll go away soon."
Only took 2 hp damage. I'm all good.

I believe that Rogar took 50 damage from Blue (bite, 4 claws, rend) and Fendel took 41 (bite, 3 claws, rend) from Yellow in addition to the Unholy Blight damage they took. I could be mistaken about that.

And can do more if needed.

On saying the name of the Archfiend, he turns his head and spits on the ground.
