I think Red should have more damage. That should have been 40 damage from Cal if he crit, then Rhaegal did 44 with his crit.
I think you're thinking about Interact actions who have the Manipulate trait. Concentrate trait doesn't have any nested trait (traits don't have nested traits, actually).
It was definitely something spell-related, but you're right, Concentrate doesn't have any nested traits. It might have been pre-Remastered somatic, which had a nested manipulate trait.

Yeah, it looks like I forgot to add Cal's crit. Red is at -102 and <50%.

Eliadyr will focus on the Green Hound, peering into the future to pick the best of possible outcomes, then speaks in elven as he draws the arrow from his quiver. As he does so it starts sparking. He then draws back and lets it loose at the green hound.

Yep, that's the plan, and correct re: Off-guard.
"Get back here, ya' big ugly thing," Cal snarls, letting his usually happy-go-lucky way slip as he starts to get a little tired.
Dang it. Just noticed that Cal's damage rolls have been wrong. I was forgetting the +2 from Weapon Spec. Would have been an extra 6 damage to Red before this turn (1 regular hit, 1 Crit)

"Hmm... I think if I bounced my shot off Herr Doktor's head... what the heck am I thinking?!" Isaku snaps out of his daydreams and realizes there's no shot. Still, with a lack of targets he jabs the bayonet at the dog, and almost stabs himself in the process.
Thinking fast, Isaku conjures a small fireball in his fist and punches the same dog, before backing away.

"Doing okay over here, Crunch?" Cal asks with a grin as he hustles past the goblin who seems to be having more trouble with the tree roots than with the lizards. He slips around behind the one and sizes up his target.
Blue will take a shot - but not at Crunch. He aims his bow towards Eliadyr, and fires, then streaks towards him. He begins within 15' of Herr Doktor and 5' from the prone Crunch, so Herr Doktor and Crunch can take AoOs.
The trees attack. Blue North and Brown are out of range, so Brown fires roots into the bridge

The scaly dragon-wolf darts through the trees, barreling down on the archers before he circles to block them. He bites down on the first one and slams him up against a tree. He tries to go for the other one, but the bad taste in his mouth causes him to flinch away.

"C'mon Crunch, let's go have a chat with the 'fraidy cat," Cal calls over his shoulder as he heads across the bridge. Dang it, stupid rocks. Ehh, I'll leave 'em be for now," he says to himself as he tiptoes through his own mess. But he's just quick enough to get up in the farthest archer's ugly face.

(I'm assuming Rhaegal attacked the blue archer and that the archer is not down to < 10% yet)
In a chiding tone, Eliadyr will lecture the two archers "Now now, no running this way thanks. That's strictly not allowed." during which he will focus he energies again. Despite his precise intonation in elven and careful draw of his bow, he fails to lands the arrow on the blue archer right in front of him.

Swinging purposefully from the ground, Crunch lands a blow but not a significant one.
Standing up, they slog their way through the trees to catch up to the two advancing archers.
I recall all of the dark green is difficult terrain, so that's a double move. If I'm wrong, Crunch could be north of magenta with an action left to swing with.
I'm in and out of vacation as well. I'm going to do the AoO first, because that crit just might end Blue; if so, I'll end up redirecting all the attacks against Magenta.
Crunch's AoO softens up Blue, and Herr Doktor's blow ends its life before it can break for it.

Rhaegal's jaws snap down on Magenta, but Magenta still lives.
Cal's speed surprises Cyan, as does the sudden sword sticking out of its gut.
Crunch, you still have your turn.
Isaku fires at it doesn't matter and misses.
Herr Doktor's first attack drops Magenta.
Eliadyr's shot misses. I waited so you could take a shot against Cyan, but even against frightened 1, off-guard, it still misses.

"Hey, get back here!" Cal cries as the 'fraidy cat runs past him and ends up just outside the range of his armor's effect :(
He watches Eliadyr's arrow strike, and hears Rhaegal's roar, so he hustles to catch up and maybe finish this one off. "Aww, did you get caught up in the little rocks on the bridge," he snickers as he notes where the archer was forced to stop.

Crunch smashes their foe as it runs past, then gives pursuit and attempts to once again assert that, by Torag's will and a goblin's strong arm, the ritual and this town shall remain safe.

With the initial waves of attackers repelled, the Pathfinders have an opportunity to rest. The Sarkorian druids encourage the Pathfinders to leave the Dolok trees as a bulwark in case of a surprise attack but otherwise return to camp to recover their strength. The Farheaven warriors are wounded and tired, but strangely exhilarated and upbeat. According to some of the veteran fighters, who remember the endless waves of demons pouring from the Worldwound that originally drove them from their lands, this relatively sparse attack feels much more winnable.
The PCs have 1 hour to rest and recover. This includes time that you need to Refocus or make any other preparations. I will assume that the Violet trees heal hit point damage in a negigible amount of time.
Anyone with extra time can assist some of the Farheaven leaders around the camp. Interacting with one NPC takes 30 minutes. A PC can’t interact with a given NPC more than once.
(1) The elf druid Cenenviel, a longtime ally of the Farheaven Clan, examines the length of the charred land and how the ritual is actively restoring it. A PC can assist the druid with a successful Athletics, Forest Lore, or Survival check.
(2) Dolok Darkfur has been maintaining the ritual for some time and could use some assistance to allow him to rest for a moment. A PC can help the Farheaven god with a successful Nature, Occultism, or Sarkoris Lore check.
(3) Chief Dragbog of the Dragonskull goblins struggles with writing a new song that captures the tricks of how to fight fire demons. A PC can help inspire him with a successful Demon Lore, Performance, or Society check.
(4) The young centaur Pathfinder Jaldan reinforces weak points in the Farheaven camp with various traps and snares. A PC can help her complete her work with a successful Crafting, Scouting Lore, or Thievery check.
(5) God caller Nelket tends to the wounded and frightened Farheaven noncombatants. A PC can support her work with a successful Diplomacy, Medicine, or Herbalism Lore check.

Cal props his freaky mask back up on top of his hat and transforms his armor back into his seemingly normal - but quite fashionable - everyday clothes. He dusts off what little dust there is on him and struts jauntily back into the camp, whistling happily (but abominably poorly) as he goes.
Spotting Jaldan, he makes his way around the camp checking the traps she has laid out. He's extra careful, as he would like to impress the young centaur, and when he's done he makes sure to make a dinner date for when they all get back to Absalom.
Gonna use his Grand Archive "Steady Hand" boon on this, as I doubt we'll encounter many traps. Once per adventure, may roll Thievery twice and use the highest. Thievery :1d20 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19 Thievery :1d20 + 17 ⇒ (13) + 17 = 30
Continuing on his way with his terrible whistling, he finds himself at the first aid tent. While he could tend to the wounded, he opts to just cheer folks up instead. Stories of his previous missions begin to flow like ale from a dwarven keg. Though it seems the only injured that Cal attends to are the ones of the female persuasion.

As the last archer falls, Eliadyr will breath a sigh of relief "That was intense - glad we had a solid back line there!"
When the group returns to the camp, Eliadyr will spend some time with his books and refocus.
That done, he will seek out Chief Dragbog and spend a half hour discussing demon hunting. Eliadyr seems a bit tired and deflated after the battle though.

Rhaegal roars as the last archer falls. "Well done, everyone! They are no match for our might!" Soon the dragon-wolf returns to his kobold form.

Crunch basks for a moment in the healing power of the divine trees, before heading into the settlement.
Connecting with Cenenviel, they assist in checking over the front lines.
Cenenviel gladly accepts Crunch's help, and as they work, they talk. His insights give Crunch a +2 circumstance bonus to all checks made while scouting the next section.
Dragbog learns some particularly devastating Sylvan insults from Eliadyr, and in return for inspiration, he gifts his fellow songwriter with three copies of the “lyrics”. These function as scrolls of sound burst, heightened to 3rd level.
Jaldan appreciates all the help with traps, and they finish so efficiently that there are leftover materials. She gives the remainder - four moderate acid flasks and one piece of freezing ammunition for a weapon of their choice.
Nelket also appreciates the help, and with wounds closed expediently, there are 3 lesser elixirs of life leftover, which Nelket gladly encourages the Pathfinders to carry with them.
As the hour of rest concludes, the ground suddenly shakes. Those within the camp begin to once again move to attention at key points, but nothing capable of making those tremors is immediately visible.
Cenenviel alerts the Sarkorians and Pathfinders that the tremors were not normal seismic activity: the only other explanation is that something is approaching the camp from underground!
Nelket scowls and tells the Pathfinders to descend below the camp and stop these subterranean hostiles while the Farheaven Clan members hold the line on the surface. Two Sarkorian druids use shape stone to open a passage into the Darklands.
As the PCs descend into the Darklands, they can attempt to anticipate the upcoming challenges. Each PC can attempt one check during the descent (either a Perception or Survival check or an attempt to Aid). Reminder that Crunch gets a +2 circumstance to their check.

If it's fine for you, Herr Doktor will reload Crunch's weapon and his with the Acid Flasks. It doesn't look like anyone else is interested in using them.
The Doktor, as distracted as usual, takes any assistance he can (considering my awful Perception, it can make a difference :D) when going down the hole.

Crunch, Cal, Isaku, and Herr Doktor scout ahead into the tunnels, noting there are several claw gouges in the stone, indicating that something is tunneling through solid rock. Cal's 34 is only a Success, so no additional information.
A network of passages below the Farheaven camp funnels Flauros’s pyroclastic flows out of Sarkoris. The narrower tunnels have 15-foot ceilings, while the lava river passage has 25-foot ceilings.
See Slide 8. Isaku and Eliadyr, I started you off one square off the map because Herr Doktor is large and I didn't want the front-liners to start next to the lava.
Environmental Challenges:
Lava: Creatures who move adjacent to or fly anywhere above a square with lava take 1d6 fire damage, which reoccurs every round the creature begins its turn in such a space (this includes walking on the stepping stones to the east). Creatures standing in the lava take 8d6 fire damage instead. Creatures with the Throw Rock ability that are adjacent to lava can take 1d6 fire damage to pick up and throw a hot rock, adding 1d6 fire damage to their rock Strikes. I don't think anyone in the party has Throw Rock, but you'd be aware that this might be a thing. Maybe.
Four cavern trolls are protecting a fifth, who appears to be digging through the solid rock towards the southeast.
Just as Eliadyr and Crunch are about to act, roots burst through the ceiling of the cavern - the roots of the Dolok trees that they had planted earlier.

Crunch shelves their concern about the tunneling creature for the moment and barrels along the rock wall and into the first monster.
Eliadyr immediately lets an arrow fly, and it strikes surely.
Yes, you can shove diagonally, but that won't be a crit so it won't come into play this round.
Crunch moves in, but as they close on the troll, the troll reaches out with an extended neck and bites. 10' reach, Opportune Attack, and I'm giving them reactions before their first turn because they were waiting for you.
Oops - Red is adjacent to lava, so 1d6 at the beginning of their turn. I'm posting it out of order because there were d6s rolled.
Red Fire:1d6 ⇒ 4
Yellow stands next to the lava, also feeling the heat - but their wounds begin closing on their own. Regeneration! Crunch can hear their acid continue to sizzle on Red, and realizes that regeneration must be deactivated by acid, but only for a little while. 1 round
Yellow Fire:1d6 ⇒ 4
Yellow scoops up a rock from the burning lava and hurls it at Crunch.
Isaku's tree (Pink Tree Southwest) bursts into light, and Green howls with agony. They appear to be moving slower. Slowed 1 with sunlight!
Same with Cyan and Herr Doktor's tree. Cyan slowed 1.
Finally, Rhaegal's tree bursts into action. Note that the fire resistance extends to all creatures, not just allies. This will come heavily into play as it all but negates the 1d6 fire from standing next to lava and picking rocks out of the lava.
Blue N Water Blast:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19 vs Red
Cold:4d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 4, 1) = 12
Blue N Water Blast, MAP:1d20 + 13 - 5 ⇒ (15) + 13 - 5 = 23 vs Red
Cold:4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 5, 1) = 13
And finally, the other Blue trees. Whew, almost there ...
Blue NW Water Blast:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23 vs Red
Cold:4d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 2, 5) = 12
Blue NW Water Blast, MAP:1d20 + 13 - 5 ⇒ (4) + 13 - 5 = 12 vs Red
Cold:4d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 4, 1) = 9
Blue NE Water Blast:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22 vs Yellow
Cold:4d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 3, 1) = 12 This is a hit, so that narrows their AC to 22.
Blue NE Water Blast, MAP:1d20 + 13 - 5 ⇒ (5) + 13 - 5 = 13 vs Yellow
Cold:4d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 1, 2) = 9

Rhaegal hurries towards Crunch and the Trolls. "You are the in the presence of a true Dragon! I am Rhaegal! Tremble and submit!" He announces himself and roars at the trolls.
