Panicked by the sudden blitzkrieg of bats led by Dire Bat Johann, the 12 derro rise up, beating with futile effort at the biting, clawing, winged cloud of doom all around them, tangling in their whispy white hair and beards, clawing and biting eyes, ears, noses and lips in a squeaking, cheeping fury! With no area of effect attacks to bring to bear on the giant bat swarm, the derro soon realize the futility of fighting back, but not before Dire Bat Johann and his diminutive allies have had their fill of derro blood!
Routed, the wounded survivors rush headlong out of the cavern down the tunnel to the ambush laid for them by the other Crusaders, Jackals and Fools! Sir Alphonse mows down the first couple with cleaning sweeps of Foereaper. Lady Ihrin and Ogon Fox flank and dispatch the next few with lightning-swift precision. Lord Perpireen, revolted by the bats, tries to find a happy memory of his adventures with Johann in the Black Forest to distract his fey mind from the disgusting horror of fighting alongside the filthy flying rats! Mwikali encourages her allies and hexes the few stragglers that somehow manage to get past Johann, Alphonse, Ihrin, Fox, and Lord P...
After a brief but ferocious slaughter, the 12 derro lay dead, and the bat colonies have a new home full of fresh blood and meat!
Johann Kaltgeboren- Dire Bat! wrote: Johan performs a coupe de grace on the other, afterwards turning back into his human shape. "Such fiends do not belong on our Earth. I am HAPPY TO SEND THEM TO HELL!" Bat Johann helps send the derro demonworshippers to their rooms with lethal bites that open their jugular veins and spill their lifeblood onto the cavern floor...
AAEEIIIHH!!!
Mwikali wrote: " good" Mwikali will begin to have the rops strangle the derro.
and that is how you use a 1st level utility spell to kill
Driven to despair and already quite insane, the derro choke, sputter, and cackle maniacally until the witchcraft-animated nooses tighten around their necks, sealing their dire fates and consigning them to damnation in the fiery pits of demon-haunted Abyss...
Mwikali wrote: Mwikali looks to the others."Spare them if you wish, I do not care whether they live or die" Apparently able to understand Mwikali, the two bound derro hiss and glare at her, and struggle vainly to escape the animated rope...

Dire Bat Johann sinks his fangs into the neck of the derro in front of Lady Ihrin a split second before she finishes the degenerate subhuman with three swift strokes of her blades!
*GASSSP!!* *THUMP!* The derro falls, lifeless, to the cavern floor...
All that remain now are the two bound by Mwikali's rope...

Round 3
Mwikali will have the new set she entangled to be grappled.
Mwikali's animated rope slithers off the fallen derro and lashes around two of the derro still standing and adjacent to each other, pulling them tightly together and entangling them...
AIEE! cry the bound derro in unison...
ROUND 2, before Lady Ihrin and Ogon Fox drop 2 of them, so there are 4 still up on their turn this round:
Two of the remaining derro demonworshippers move to flank Dire Bat Johann as he finishes off the first of their fellows, striking at him with quarterstaffs... 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22 with flanking bonus still misses the agile Dire Bat Johann
... 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13 misses as the derro swings wildly, slipping in the expanding pool of blood spurting from the neck of the derro Johann just felled!
The other two flank Lady Ihrin, swinging at her with their staves... 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 strikes Ihrin for 1d4 + 3d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + (3, 2, 6) + 4 = 18 bludgeoning plus sneak attack... 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29 strikes Ihrin for 1d4 + 3d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + (4, 2, 4) + 4 = 16 bludgeoning plus sneak attack...

Fox begins to hallucinate almost immediately, but ignores the liquid way the ceiling drips stalactites, the walls swirl and bulge luquidly, and a river of pebbles seems to flow around his ankles, obscuring the cavern floor and his feet...
In spite of the distracting hallucinations, Fox's disciplined mind and body act as one, and he unleashes a flurry of rapid blows that shatter the bones of one of the entangled derro!
UUUNGH!!
Holy kung fu, Batman! Fox drops a 3rd derro, leaving only 3 standing...

A flurry of steel from the shadows as Lady Ihrin appears out of the darkness behind one of the unbound derro, puncturing and slashing him with her swift samurai swords!
AAAAAGH!! shrieks the derro, and it collapses to the cavern floor, slain by Lady Dracula's deadly assault!

A beat of his powerful wings propels Dire Bat Johann off the collapsing body of the first derro as it falls, onto the next nearest derro, where two powerful chomps with his fanged jaws opens the derro demonworshipper's throat!
GRRGGGLE!! sputters the dying derro as it collapses next to its fallen fellow, Dire Bat Johann beating his wings to stay aloft as the body goes limp and falls away under him!
Dang, Johann! You're getting pretty deadly! 2 down, 4 to go...

"You mad beasts! What are you doing with that woman?" Alphonse shouts.
Though a more suspicious man might wonder where this sacrifice CAME from. Nobody lives around here, do they?
He charges forward to cut down the nearest one.
[dice=Forereaper Slash]1d20+16
[dice=Damage]2d4+18
Addding 21 damage to BatJohann's 37 bite brings the derro to 58 in the hole, which takes him out.
Foereaper carves a swathe of opalescent wrath through the degenerate derro, and he falls lifeless to the cavern floor!
Surprised round: nothing; ROUND 1:
Each of six targets one of the visible PCs with mad hallucination, casting defensively or taking 5-foot steps to avoid attacks of opportunity 1d6d1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8, 9) + 7 = 24, Will DC 15 resists.

Bite is magic, silver, & cold iron.
A look of shock and pain is displayed as BatJohann chomps on the derro's neck from out of the shadows!
Auhhhgh!! Nergle floogitts! screeches the deranged subterranean mutant...
Surrounding a bloodstained altar of black basalt before the vulture-demon idol are six degenerate humanoids with pale, pupiless eyes...
They are mumbling a demonic chant in unison:
Iä Pazuzu! Nog sloth draug noz!
