Init: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Nephre cackles with glee as the statue blocks her punch. "This should be good..."

"Typical. It's so dumb all it can do is say the same meaningless thing over and over," Nephre sneers.

After pacing around for a bit longer (giving people time for buffs), she says, "Okay, that's it. I'm too bored," charges the golden statue, and punches it in the face.

Attack: 1d20 + 21 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 21 + 3 = 38
Damage: 1d8 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 3 = 14 Counts as silver and adamantine, ignores 4 points of any type of DR

Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16

"Menagerie? Where's the animals?" Nephre asks.

She starts to stalk around the room, looking around for anything interesting. Except for the possibly-fighty construct, this room was seeming boring.

"Would you like to clue us in, whether we should keep a few candies or pieces of jerky to spare. Maybe Koro can sing a lullaby?"

"That directed at me?" Nephre laughs. "I told you before, if I get big, get out of there, right? She comes out when there's a good fight, and She won't go back until she's done."

She pauses. "A lake of beer colored like blood might work, too, though."

When the others return to the room, Nephre is lying on the floor amidst the wreckage of... well, everything that was previously in the room. She apparently quite thoroughly demolished every bit of furniture in the place. She jumps to her feet as soon as someone walks in, though.

"What took you?" she asks, grinning. "She was quite disappointed with all of you running off, you know. Good idea, though. As much fun as that fight was, I wouldn't have wanted any of you actually dead."

She watches with only slight impatience as Koro works the mechanism until the stairs appear. "Guess I should've punched the ceiling," she jokes. She focuses for a few moments, a sequence of her tattoos glowing, then strides towards the stairs.

When her last plaything suddenly vanishes, Nephre roars in sudden rage. She begins tearing apart everything in the room in frustration, rending and smashing everything within until she at last transforms back to her normal self after nearly five minutes of rampaging.

With only one target left in sight, Nephre keeps going at Koro.

Attack: 1d20 + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 41
Attack (take lowest): 1d20 + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 32
Damage: 2d6 + 16 + 5 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (5, 4) + 16 + 5 + 1 - 2 = 29
Attack: 1d20 + 20 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 20 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 29

Attack (take lowest): 1d20 + 15 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 15 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 23
Damage: 2d6 + 16 + 5 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (2, 6) + 16 + 5 + 1 - 2 = 28

Nephre's tattoos flash once again, wiping away the strength drain Lehk had inflicted. She keeps beating on the only target available to her without tearing through stuff that can't bleed and is therefore less interesting--Koro.

Only one tension to boost attack

Kick: 1d20 + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 32
Kick reroll (take lowest): 1d20 + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 25 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 35

Knee: 1d20 + 15 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 15 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 19
Knee reroll (take lowest): 1d20 + 15 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 15 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 33
Damage: 2d6 + 16 + 5 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (5, 4) + 16 + 5 + 1 - 2 = 29

Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8 Looks like she'll have a choice of which debuff to clear next round

Reflex: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28

Nephre snarls and spits as the foam pushes her back. She seems momentarily disoriented, but some of her tattoos flash and she is right back to her berserk self.

Swift action to heal nausea

Deprived of her real targets by the foam, she settles for continuing to beat Koro.

Five tension to boost attack

Kick: 1d20 + 21 + 5 + 5 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 21 + 5 + 5 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 36
Damage: 2d6 + 12 + 5 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (6, 4) + 12 + 5 + 5 - 2 = 30
Kick Again: 1d20 + 16 + 5 + 5 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 16 + 5 + 5 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 32
Damage: 2d6 + 12 + 5 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (4, 4) + 12 + 5 + 5 - 2 = 28
Kick One More Time: 1d20 + 11 + 5 + 5 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 5 + 5 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 27
Damage: 2d6 + 12 + 5 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (6, 5) + 12 + 5 + 5 - 2 = 31

Compared to before, biting Nephre now is like chewing on a piece of adamantine. Lehkazeran is still just barely able to penetrate her skin, but the damage seems to be swiftly healing.

Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (18) + 16 = 34
Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (18) + 16 = 34
Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25
Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (18) + 16 = 34

Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (11) + 16 = 27
Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (13) + 16 = 29
Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (2) + 16 = 18
Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (19) + 16 = 35

So one failure on each save.

Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33

A slight hesitation is the huge beast's only immediate reaction to Lehkazeran's words. Then she bears her massive fangs in a smile.

"Bold... and amusing. I'll kill you last."

She turns to Koro and aims a lazy kick at his head with one massive paw.

She hasn't taken any damage this round, so only one tension to boost the attack.
Kick: 1d20 + 21 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 21 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 36
Damage: 6d6 + 12 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (1, 2, 6, 2, 3, 4) + 12 + 5 - 2 = 33 If you're hit, you're battered, taking -2 to CMD and -3 to attack and damage for four rounds.

And then she reaches down and flicks him with a clawed hand.

Trip attempt: 1d20 + 22 + 4 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 22 + 4 + 5 + 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 30

Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (13) + 16 = 29
Will: 1d20 ⇒ 13

Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Koro can tell that his spell took effect... but there's absolutely no change in Nephre's berserker fury, as far as he can tell.

Red light erupts from Nephre's tattoos as she roars in rage. The light completely envelops her, swelling higher and higher until it resolves into leonine fur. Nephre now stands twenty feet tall, her head the snarling visage of a lioness, arms and chest covered in tawny fur, her hands ending in huge claws. The entire transformation takes only an instant, and she turns her fury on the irritating creature who bit her, aiming a savage kick at him.

Cleanse: 4d8 + 11 ⇒ (5, 2, 6, 2) + 11 = 26 Note that this eliminated the nauseated, blinded, and deafened.

Spending 7 tension to boost attack, vital strike, power attack, and if you're hit you're battered for 4 rounds, taking a -2 to CMD and a -3 to attack and damage. Attacking Lehk, to be clear.

Axe Kick: 1d20 + 21 + 5 + 7 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 21 + 5 + 7 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 34
Damage: 6d6 + 12 + 5 + 7 + 6 ⇒ (1, 4, 5, 1, 4, 1) + 12 + 5 + 7 + 6 = 46

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24
Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20
Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32
Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19
Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15
Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25

Init: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Nephre's smile looks... well, insane, even as the explosion scorches her. She turns to Koro and throws a heavy punch, cackling with joy.

Punch: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (7) + 29 = 36 Spent 5 tension to boost + Vital Strike
Damage: 2d8 + 17 ⇒ (7, 8) + 17 = 32 If she hits, Koro is battered, taking a -2 to CMD

Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

"Probably there's supposed to be some grand pattern to the whole tomb, or the other puzzles, or his autobiography or something," Nephre grumbles, pacing impatiently right next to Dymer. "These tomb types are always too full of their own cleverness. But if they're so clever, why do they never trap the wall *beside* the door?"

She laughs and slaps a fist against the palm of her other hand. "If this lever doesn't work, I can use a more my-kind of solution."

Nephre rolls her eyes. "There'd better not be any. I need to punch something right now," she growls.

Nephre settles down a little after a couple of minutes, though she doesn't seem capable of sitting still. The glow of her tattoos has dimmed to a faint shimmer of red. She paces the room restlessly as the rest of the group examines the contents of the room, growling faintly from time to time, but saying nothing for the moment.

Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23

Nephre snarls inarticulatly in response, stomping around looking for something more to smash. She kicks at the wreckage a couple times, but it's hardly as satisfying as something that fights back. She looks over at her companions and bares her teeth, then closes her eyes and takes a couple of deep breaths.

The angry red glow of her tattoos fades as she gets a grip on herself, though they still emit a sullen light even as she opens her eyes.

"I'm ready to smash something a bit less annoying. Whatever's next had better be more fun."

Reflex: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29

Nephre shrieks in rage as the explosion engulfs her. Again her tatoos flash green as they heal her... but the green is nearly invisible within the sullen blood-red glow of another set of tattoos.

Self-renewal: 5d8 + 50 ⇒ (5, 4, 3, 5, 4) + 50 = 71

The red glow seems almost to be forming a shape around her upper body, and... is there fur beginning to sprout along her arms? She looks around in frantic rage, shouting, "WHERE ARE THEY? WHERE ARE THEY?"

She's too close to the edge to do anything clever at the moment. She does spend a point of momentum to reduce damage, though.

Nephre steps over slightly to get out of flanking position, some of her tattoos again flashing green to close some of her wounds. The large tattoos on her face, hands, and feet, meanwhile, are glowing a sullen red.

Self-Renewal: 5d8 + 50 ⇒ (5, 8, 7, 1, 5) + 50 = 76

"You don't have blood, but I WILL MAKE YOU BLEED ANYWAY," she snarls.

She aims a single, savage blow right at the belly of the construct in front of her.

Free action to boost strength, berserkering, spending all tension to boost attack/damage, brutal strike with bone-breaker, vital strike, expending focus for extra damage, using Bonebreaker Bracers

Savage punch: 1d20 + 20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 20 + 15 = 40
Damage: 2d8 + 28 + 20 ⇒ (2, 3) + 28 + 20 = 53

Assuming this hits, the efreet suffers a -3 to hit and damage and a -2 to CMD for 4 rounds, and has to make a DC 14 Will save or suffer a -6 to Dexterity

Also taking the 23 healing if I hit.

Nephre spends 3 points of momentum to subtract 7 from each of the three hits

Nephre grins as the 'efreet' strikes her. "Not bad, but you'll have to hit harder if you really want me to feel it!"

A series of tattoos across her body flash green, and her wounds nearly disappear. Healing: 5d8 + 50 ⇒ (5, 8, 2, 4, 8) + 50 = 77

As this happens, she lashes out with a fist, then kicks with a paw at its leg.

Punch: 1d20 + 20 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 20 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 41
Damage: 1d8 + 9 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 21
Kick: 1d20 + 15 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 15 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 34
Damage: 1d8 + 9 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 24

Reflex: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27

Nephre has Evasion and Fire Resist 10

Nephre laughs as she nimbly evades the ball of flames, unbothered by the heat of the wall of fire near her.

"I hope you're better entertainment than the last ones!" she says as she leaps forward and aims a punch at one of the efreet. A matching pair of red tatoos glow on her upper arms as she does.

Swift action to boost her strength, spending 5 tension on boosting attack. If the attack hits, target is battered and suffers a -3 to attack and damage rolls.

Attack: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (11) + 26 = 37
Damage: 1d8 + 19 ⇒ (4) + 19 = 23

Nephre growls. "I'm tired of this sneaking around. I'm going ahead."

She stalks angrily into the room, hoping for something to punch.

Init: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Nephre grins at the prospect of another fight. Maybe these things would actually put up some resistance!

"Good thing you're around to do the boring parts," Nephre says, waiting impatiently for the door to open.

"One advantage you dead have--you don't bleed when you're punched, so you're much more boring to fight," Nephre states.

She's so deadpan it's hard to tell if she's joking or not.

Nephre seems instantly bored with the room. "Somebody get the valuables and let's keep moving," she says with a dismissive wave of her hand, already starting to walk towards the next room.

She is also entirely uninterested in the fact that one of the goblins is still alive.

Nephre makes a face. "The only blood that's good is blood shed in combat, and there's not enough here to be worth licking up," she says as she examines her knuckles.

Nephre frowns in disappointment at the dead goblins. "That's it? Here I was hoping they'd last at least long enough to get warmed up."

"Next time skip these stupid tentacle things!" Nephre shouts angrily at Ozzie. They were getting in the way of her beating up more goblins. She struggles through and aims a kick at one anyway.

I'm assuming she's not adjacent to one since they're focusing on Koro, and the Black Tentacles are difficult terrain so she can't 5' step.

Kick: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 20 + 1 = 31
Damage: 1d8 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 1 = 18

Nephre springs forward like a striking serpent, covering the ground to the nearest target in an instant. She throws a savage punch to the goblin's stomach, then follows it up with a swift kick at his knee trying to knock him off his feet.

Speed step to move as a swift action, standard action brutal strike, move action sweep.

Brutal Strike (attack): 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 20 + 2 + 1 = 34 If it hits, the target has a -2 to CMD
Damage: 2d8 + 15 ⇒ (1, 2) + 15 = 18

Trip attempt: 1d20 + 19 + 2 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 19 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 37

Init: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17

Nephre cracks her knuckles and smiles. "Good! Otherwise this would be too easy," she says, crouching low and getting ready to spring.

"Loot's nice," Nephre comments, though she sounds bored. She starts heading towards the doorway onward.

Nephre snickers. "Sounds like an idiot to me. At least that second part. First part, not much fun beating things that aren't fighting back, but if you're mad and there's nothing living to punch..."

She shrugs. "Better than nothing."

Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31

Nephre seems almost disappointed when the last of the constructs falls. "It's not as much fun when they're not fighting back," she grumbles.

Nephre kicks at the cobra that had held her as it flees.

Kick: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (14) + 21 = 35
Damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

She follows hard after it and takes a swing at it with a fist.

Punch: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (16) + 21 = 37
Damage: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (5, 2) + 10 = 17

Nephre laughs maniacally as the cobras attack her, knocking her to the ground and wrapping her in their coils. She'll go ahead and spend two of Koro's momentum to reduce damage

As the cobra wraps around her she thrashes such that she can aim a savage kick at the other cobra's head.

Kick: 1d20 + 20 - 4 - 2 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 20 - 4 - 2 + 7 + 1 = 42 Dumping all the tension she just got into this attack
Damage: 2d8 + 21 ⇒ (2, 2) + 21 = 25 If it hits, the cobra takies a -2 to CMD and a -3 to attack and damage for the next 8 rounds, counts as adamantine
Crit confirm: 1d20 + 20 - 4 - 2 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 20 - 4 - 2 + 7 + 1 = 36
Crit damage: 1d8 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27

Nephre charge in at the nearest of the constructs. A couple steps before she reached it she leaped into the air for just long enough to come down on it with a mighty kick.

Kick: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (13) + 20 = 33
Damage: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13 Counts as adamantine, magic, and silver, and ignores 4 points of DR
