Radovus knows that the asura are generally resistant to weapons that are not good aligned.
Ungala approaches the party. "If you plan to help us by defeating this creature, I would propose that you travel to the marshy path just outside of Bloodcove where the we conducted our last raid. Two of our members were killed there, so it's likely the creature is attacking from that area."

Hearing Ungala's wise words, Veego nods. Veego Draven agrees with this course of action, he says, agreeing with this course of action.

"Indeed. I think this is a job for The Cunning Fox! I'll.... give him a heads up. Time is of the essence, yes? Then let's go!"
Torriki will scurry off unless stopped. Ready to move

Radovus steeples his fingers. It's the only sign he gives to indicate that he's ready to head out. Ready to go.
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
Is everyone ready to go then? Any errands that people want to do before they go?
Samsaran Spi3 (ectoplasmist) | hp 4/27 | Init +2 | AC 16, T 11, FF 15 | CMB +5, CMD 16 | F +4 R +2 W +5 (+2 vs. death effects/neg energy) | Prcptn +9 | 1st level spells remaing: 4/4
Perhaps a couple of oils of bless weapon? They will not help Veego, unfortunately, but certain should help Torriki and Garrick.
Male Human (ulfin) Paladin 3(HP: 31/31) | Init: +0 | AC: 19 T: 10, FF: 19 | Perception +1 | F: +8, R: +4, W: +5 CMB: +5 | CMD: 19 | 1* reroll 1/1
Garrick ponders what Radovus says about these 'twins.'
"I can call upon Sarenrae's divine light to smite this creature, but it is just for one attack. As I prove myself, this will change, but I have not earned such powers yet. I would suggest we find the nearest temple and request the proper blessings to assist us."
M URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
Torriki has left, and is waiting for everyone outside.
M URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
Torriki spends some time stopping by a shop, picking up an oil of Bless Weapon and then finds a quiet spot to change...
Male Human (Chelish) Wizard/3 (HP: -3/17) | Init: +7 | AC: 11(15 w/Mage Armor) T: 11, FF: 10(14 w/Mage Armor) | Perception +2 | F: +3, R: +3, W: +4 | CMB: -1 | CMD: 10 (9 fl) | 3* reroll 1/1
I think we're all set to go...
Radovus unsteeples his fingers to answer Garrick. "Indeed, I suspect the holy blessing of Sarenrae will be potent against these creatures. I trust you will know when the time is right to call upon in. Now, if there's nothing else, let us proceed to where the last raid was conducted."
M URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
Torriki is done preparing and is ready for ACTION!
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
Before you leave, Ungala stops you and presents a tablet to you.
"This tablet can assist you in stopping the asura. reading a key passage backward while within 60 feet of the fiend as a move action prevents it from teleporting for 1 hour and causes it to attack the reader. For each additional round after the first that the bearer continues reciting as a move action, the asura takes a cumulative –1 penalty on attack rolls and to its AC (maximum –3). If the recitation
ceases for whatever reason, this penalty ends and resets, but the asura will still be unable to teleport."
After getting your supplies, you follow the directions provided to you.
The path leads north to a ruined guard post Ungala used to stage raids, surrounded by a mossy bog studded with wetland trees. A circle of blasphemous tokens and human remains suggests that the asura has been returning here between attacks.

Sorry to be a pain on Roll20, but....
Once the party joins them, Torriki is no where to be found. Then, dashing into the group with a bow and ostentatious salute, a hybrid of fox and man greats the group. "Torriki is best at parties and weddings. This is a job for The Cunning Fox!"
Male Human (Chelish) Wizard/3 (HP: -3/17) | Init: +7 | AC: 11(15 w/Mage Armor) T: 11, FF: 10(14 w/Mage Armor) | Perception +2 | F: +3, R: +3, W: +4 | CMB: -1 | CMD: 10 (9 fl) | 3* reroll 1/1
Radovus blinks. Several times.
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
Everyone can go ahead and give me initiate rolls.
and to refresh my memory, this is low tier, right?
URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
You may find this technique is much easier; build a quick post so one post contains the entire combat. It's less work for the GM:
The Cunning Fox!: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
Radovus: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Garrick: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (4) + 0 = 4
Veego: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20

We are 13 total levels. which puts us right on the cusp of 1-2 no adjustment.

Everyone can take a full round action to move, cast spells or whatever you'd like.

What Veego does is very much dependent on what he sees. If he doesn't see anything, he's got no preparations to make (his ectoplasmic lash is already summoned).
Also, do we have a map link?

Veego moves toward the circle, eyes peeled for any sign of the asura.
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
Male Human (ulfin) Paladin 3(HP: 31/31) | Init: +0 | AC: 19 T: 10, FF: 19 | Perception +1 | F: +8, R: +4, W: +5 CMB: +5 | CMD: 19 | 1* reroll 1/1
Garrick reaches out to sense for evil in the area south of him. He moves forward, weapon drawn, in the direction of perceived danger.
Male Human (Chelish) Wizard/3 (HP: -3/17) | Init: +7 | AC: 11(15 w/Mage Armor) T: 11, FF: 10(14 w/Mage Armor) | Perception +2 | F: +3, R: +3, W: +4 | CMB: -1 | CMD: 10 (9 fl) | 3* reroll 1/1
Curious, Radovus begins by weaving protective magics (Mage Armor). He then strides forward to examine the edge of the circle. He steeples his fingers.
URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
The Cunning Fox slinks behind the small structure and tries to hide from anything south of the Pathfinder position:
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
I am assuming everyone has moved themselves on the map.
The party sees nothing as it enters the area it believes to be the right area. You notice there are no animal noises around and even the sound of insects seems less that what you would expect. It's almost, but not quite, creepy.
Everyone can take another round of actions.
URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
Slowly, silently, The Cunning Fox approaches that which is unrevealed... No change from stealth roll above.
Samsaran Spi3 (ectoplasmist) | hp 4/27 | Init +2 | AC 16, T 11, FF 15 | CMB +5, CMD 16 | F +4 R +2 W +5 (+2 vs. death effects/neg energy) | Prcptn +9 | 1st level spells remaing: 4/4
Veego heads over to the other side of the circle, inspecting the ground and noting how quiet everything seems to be.
Take 10 on Perception for 19.
Male Human (Chelish) Wizard/3 (HP: -3/17) | Init: +7 | AC: 11(15 w/Mage Armor) T: 11, FF: 10(14 w/Mage Armor) | Perception +2 | F: +3, R: +3, W: +4 | CMB: -1 | CMD: 10 (9 fl) | 3* reroll 1/1
Radovus holds firm, but whispers a cantrip with dark and ominous tones. He then begins to pierce the veil to sense magical auras.
detect Magic, pointing the cone south
Male Human (ulfin) Paladin 3(HP: 31/31) | Init: +0 | AC: 19 T: 10, FF: 19 | Perception +1 | F: +8, R: +4, W: +5 CMB: +5 | CMD: 19 | 1* reroll 1/1
Garrick continues south while seeking evil in that direction.
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
All still seems quiet, though it seems you are hearing some whispers which you cannot seem to pinpoint or determine their direction. One last move please (because my initiative was a Jeff).
URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
Move or turn? The Cunning Fox will keep creeping forward.
Samsaran Spi3 (ectoplasmist) | hp 4/27 | Init +2 | AC 16, T 11, FF 15 | CMB +5, CMD 16 | F +4 R +2 W +5 (+2 vs. death effects/neg energy) | Prcptn +9 | 1st level spells remaing: 4/4
Veego moves from the circle to near the paladin, though careful not to get in his detect evil area. Veego's not evil, just misunderstood. ;-)
Male Human (ulfin) Paladin 3(HP: 31/31) | Init: +0 | AC: 19 T: 10, FF: 19 | Perception +1 | F: +8, R: +4, W: +5 CMB: +5 | CMD: 19 | 1* reroll 1/1
Garrick continues forward weapon in hand. He continues to concentrate on detecting evil.
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
Suddenly a create jumps down from the trees on top of Radovus. It looks like
https://www.deviantart.com/alexalexandrov/art/Adhukait-500818033
Except there are multiples of him and his outline is indistinct.
mirror images: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
He takes a kukri and slashes viciously at Radovus.
kukri: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22
damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
He looks pleased at the nasty cut he has given Radovus.
Party up:
The Cunning Fox
Veego
Radovus
Garrick

Veego whirls about at the surprise attack, and quickly heads back to the circle.
Kn check: 1d20 ⇒ 6
+7 for Kn (planes), +5 for Kn (arcana, dungeoneering, engineering, local, nature, or religion)
EDIT: or, never mind.
He is not close enough to strike the beast, so instead moves about the opposite side in an attempt to gain an advantage. Double move
URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
@!#$%#$%^# I sneaked away from the fight! The Cunning Fox beats a slow retreat back.
Male Human (ulfin) Paladin 3(HP: 31/31) | Init: +0 | AC: 19 T: 10, FF: 19 | Perception +1 | F: +8, R: +4, W: +5 CMB: +5 | CMD: 19 | 1* reroll 1/1
Garrick curses under his breathe. He wheels around and runs towards the threat. 'How did I miss this?' He thinks to himself as he runs.

Knowledge Planes: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
GMs choice on what, if anything, Radovus knows
The dark wizard steps away from the otherworldly being, then gestures in the air while whispering arcane syllables. Seconds later a viscous and dark sludge spreads beneath the creature, bubbling and gurgling as it settles into place. It immediately becomes difficult to keep one's footing in that space!
Grease. DC 16 Reflex save or fall prone
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
The creature tries to stay up in the greasy terrain:
reflex: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25
and easily stays up in the sludge as he appears to be very agile.
He then moves up to attack Radovus with his kukri and claws in an attack reminiscent of a cuisinart.
kukri: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16
kukri: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27
crit: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
claw: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
claw: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Radovus takes a lot of hits as blades and claws slice through his clothing and magical protection.
damage1: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
crit damage: 3d4 + 9 ⇒ (2, 3, 4) + 9 = 18
claw: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Sorry Jeff

The onslaught of weapon and claw brings Radovus low, and the dark wizard falls unconscious. The moment is both foreboding and ominous for the other Pathfinders.

"I'm comin! You'll steeple your fingers in a minute!"

Veego Draven will point out that even in deathly slumber, his fingers are currently steepled, the samsaran points out. Veego Draven will also point out that it is rather creepy.
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
URog/Vig 3/1 (HP: 31/31), Init: +4, AC: 17 T: 13, FF: 16, Perception +8 (LLV, Trap Spotter +9), F: +2, R: +9, W: +3 CMB: +3, CMD: 17
Moving silently, the Cunning Fox looks for the right angle, the right time.
When he sees it he strikes! It's a hard thrust on the seven line:
Sneak Attack!: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22 for DMG: 1d6 + 5 + 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 + (5, 3) + 2 = 19
Male Human (ulfin) Paladin 3(HP: 31/31) | Init: +0 | AC: 19 T: 10, FF: 19 | Perception +1 | F: +8, R: +4, W: +5 CMB: +5 | CMD: 19 | 1* reroll 1/1
unsure of the footing in the grease, Garrick takes a step to engage this creature.Garrick reaches out to detect the creatures aura and strikes.
attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
damage: 2d4 + 7 ⇒ (2, 3) + 7 = 12
5 ft step, detect evil, attack
Samsaran Spi3 (ectoplasmist) | hp 4/27 | Init +2 | AC 16, T 11, FF 15 | CMB +5, CMD 16 | F +4 R +2 W +5 (+2 vs. death effects/neg energy) | Prcptn +9 | 1st level spells remaing: 4/4
Veego steps over and takes advantage of the flank proffered by Garrick.
ectoplasmic lash: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 2 = 13 counts as magical, if it matters
slashing dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
M Half Orc Alchmist/4
The Cunning Fox strikes at the creature, but there are many of him. Can he hit the correct one? (7 means a hit)
mirror images: 1d7 ⇒ 2
He misses striking true, but he manages to remove one of the images.
Garrick swings at the creature, but also misses. However, his blade also slides close enough to the creature to cause another of its images to vanish. Lastly, Veego moves in with his lash, taking a shot at the creature. Also thrown off by the blurriness of his outline and multiple versions, he strikes but misses, yet also close enough to remove one of the multiple images.
Garrick and Veego notice as Veego approaches that the creature seems unperturbed by having one on each side of him. Immune to flanking, so no flanking bonuses
The creature looks at Veego and smiles gleefully and attacks him with his kurki and claws, slashing about madly.
kukri: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17
kukri: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
claw: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
claw: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
But he only manages to hit once with a kukri.
damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Mirror images = 3
Party up!
