Yendi clutches the die and hears a faint song as he attempts to escape…

There’s hope for all who play the game,
Despite a world of debt.

… and he slips free of the creature's grasp!

He then heals himself to full, but the roaring applause fades.

Orin has had enough of being ignored.

He charges in and drives the pick through the clumsy creature's swollen abdomen; ichor sprays and a thousand lidless eyes stare balefully at him. As it stumbles, slow to recover from the massive blow Orin hammers the point of his weapon into its brain.

The Gogiteth falls onto its back, legs twitching and clacking in its death throes. It had 250 HP. 31 AC. Every bit counted.

Saving Throw basic Reflex; Duration 1 minute
All life dances one step from the precipice, one heartbeat from disaster. You open your eyes wide and see doom waiting in the wings, then invite it to step forward. A spectral omen of disaster appears above the target's head— traditionally, this is a downward-pointing sword, but some spellcasters report seeing a hangman's noose or a grinning skull instead. When you Cast this Spell, pick one of the following triggers.
The target moves more than its Speed in a single round.
The target makes more than one Strike in a single round.
The target Casts a Spell.
The target uses a specific skill you name.
The target uses a specific ability you name.
If the target takes the triggering action, the portent of doom activates—the sword strikes down, the noose loops around the target's neck, the skull bares its fangs—and the target takes 70 mental damage with a basic Reflex save. The target instinctively knows which action will trigger the omen and can ward off the omen by spending a total of 3 actions, which have the concentrate trait, to pray, make signs against doom, or similar apotropaic actions. These actions need not be consecutive. After the creature spends the actions, the spell ends.
Heightened (+1) The damage increases by 10.

Chulyin ascends as he flies closer to the battle. With too many of his companions between the two elementals, he focuses on the closest and most damaged of the two. "Stoirmean geamhraidh agus binneanan beinne, leig às do chorruich," he chants as he moves his staff through the air.

We'll say Kohl stepped struck struck.

Yendi creates a magical guillotine over one of the elementals… it cannot help but glance up at the blade every few seconds.

Ref 2: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (13) + 15 = 28

Chulyin's cone of cold does far less damage than he thought, though it frosts the elementals like stones on a winter morning.

The wolf chomps at the elemental, which drops into the earth! Does not trigger reactions.

Edict and Courage status won't stack unfortunately.

Orin nods to Yendi as he grumbles and moves into the spikey terrain.

ouch: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 4) = 8

From there he takes a pair of swings at the rocky elemental of rockyness.

Pick: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 20 + 1 = 37
piercing: 2d6 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (4, 3) + 7 + 1 = 15
crit damage?: 2d10 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (10, 4) + 7 + 1 = 22
fatal bonus: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
15 on a hit or 56 on a crit

Pick: 1d20 + 20 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (2) + 20 + 1 - 5 = 18
piercing: 2d6 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (2, 4) + 7 + 1 = 14

Shield not raised but can raise as a reaction and block with the bonus, or AoO etc, whatever happens first, will block as long as shield is not totally destroyed if it comes up.

Potential AoO:

Pick: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 20 + 1 = 37
piercing: 2d6 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (4, 4) + 7 + 1 = 16
crit damage?: 2d10 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (8, 2) + 7 + 1 = 18
fatal bonus: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
16 on a hit or 49 on a crit

Orin is a crit machine.

He strikes the pick into the creature's chest… cracks spread, and as the furious spirit inhabiting the rock is vanquished back to the Plane of Earth, the elemental's body tumbles to the dwarf's feet — a pile of inert rubble.

The final elemental comes up at Kohl's feet; he can feel the earth breaking up into jagged shards as it rises from below. He whacks it with his flail; flecks of stone fly away.

Punch Kohl: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (12) + 21 = 33
B: 2d10 + 10 ⇒ (1, 9) + 10 = 20

Punch Kohl: 1d20 + 21 - 5 ⇒ (15) + 21 - 5 = 31
B: 2d10 + 10 ⇒ (1, 4) + 10 = 15

Once again Has staggers as he is bruised along with Kohl. 17 to Kohl, 18 to Kas? 17 to Kas? How does rounding work with odd numbers here?

DC 36 (crit success), second success by another PC, or DC 28 as second check after first success:
Spoiler:
They are Earthbound When not touching solid ground, a stone mauler is slowed 1 and can’t use reactions.

This is a Gogiteth, a chaotic evil aberration. They have a skittering assailt! The gogiteth Strides three times. Once per Stride, it can attempt a leg Strike against a creature in its reach at any point during the Stride; it must make each attack against a different creature, but it doesn’t apply its multiple attack penalty until after making all its Strikes. If any of the Strikes results in a critical failure, Skittering Assault ends.
DC 40(crit success), second success by another PC, or DC 32 as second check after first success:
Spoiler:
They can skitter as a reaction. Skittering Reposition (move) Trigger A creature that starts its move outside the gogiteth’s reach moves into its reach. Effect The gogiteth moves 10 feet. This does not trigger reactions.

Kas reaches out and sends another mighty heal the Kobolds direction. "You are doing great Kohl, keep it up."

With Kas's support, Kohl's never felt better.

Kohl draws on his draconic magic to maybe get a good hit in!

Kohl has also had enough of this. The tremendous Kohlbold smashes his mace into the creature's head, caving it in!

A cloud of dust rolls through the archive. Finally, it's quiet…

Out of combat! I'll u[pdate us a bit later today. Well done.

Effie and Shaine close the portal together, jsut as the tentacle of an Isqulug reaches through. Shaine looks begrudgingly at his peer. I suppose you handled that with a modicum of competence…

She sings:

You shuffle there, you cough in ink,
you wear the carpet with your shoes;
But alike at times do poets and scholars think
An when they do, the monsters always lose.

The shake each other's hand and go their separate ways.

Gorm Greathammer rubs his chin, momentarily at a loss for words. “I look forward to hearing what happened. For now, I’m just glad that you were on this mission. I think things would have gone badly for all of us without your efforts. Once you’ve had a chance to recover from this battle, I look forward to hearing your story. Maybe Effie will put it to song, or Shaine will write a paper. Maybe both?” He shrugs.

Plinteff, Eltha (and Sparkles), and Irlah gather round. "We're finally home, safe and sound! We owe it all to you!" Plinteff decides to find some pants. Eltha is off to see if her favorite bakery is still in business. Eltha is going to set up a playpen for Sparkles. "You must not get many missions like this. What're you doing next?"

"That is a very good question," Chulyin says with a thoughtful expression. The burn scar on his face with which he arrived is noticeably smaller and lighter despite the aeon stone needing to also heal several bruised bones and muscles. "Sarkoris still burns in many places, but the Society seems to have less interest there currently. Maybe I will join my Magaambyan colleagues there for a while."

Kas's face seems to slump slightly beneath his beard. he is beginning to look older and more and more tired each day. "Hopefully a decent rest. After all these years I could use a bit of just peace and quiet. Maybe work on finding a wife and startng a family for once."

"That was certainly bracing... but I can't help but wonder one thing, especially with that village still on the other side of the portal. The song seemed to have no interest in being easily remembered. Orin, could you please check your notes?"

Orin checks his notes. With the song complete and written down, the Society can open the portal to the darklands any time. The deep gnomes will no longer be cut off from the world, and this should afford ample opportunity to study Nivi’s sanctum.

Kohl pats the sack containing his share of the earnings from this adventure. "Time to add to my hoard!"
