Daveth is CE
A tall man steps out into the arena cracking his neck as he does so, seeing the crowd a wide grin spreads across his face as this has been the moment he has awaited so vary long for, the chance to fight and kill before hundreds of people and have it all be within the law. Sure it woulden't be as enjoyable as a true slaughter as these people were actually here for it and thus would not react the same as 'normal' people but there reactions would be enjoyable nonetheless. Daveth gave a brief smirk to his 'allies' before drawing his pride and joy, a beautifully crafted Scythe with a blade forged from some of the toughest metal found on the planet, strapped to his back is yet another Scythe . Daveth gives the scythe a brief almost loving smile before whipping it around a bit as he joins his tiny compatriot's cackle with in a bit of maniacal laughter.
Daveth is wearing a set of expertly crafted suit of black full plate armor, attached to which is a long flowing cloak with several mystical runes lining the cloak's edges, around his waist is a thick black and gold belt(I envision it as something akin to a WWE/WWF title :P) beneath is hangs another belt with several openings these openings are currently occupied by four vials filled with various oddly colored liquids.
Rallick appears as a slender half-elf with a constant crooked smile that seems to hint at something sinister. His cloths are of fine cut and consist of deep blues and blacks. A fine shirt of mithril pokes up around his collar and cuffs. A fine buckler bearing elaborate celtic patterns is strapped to his left arm and a small leather pouch hangs from his belt. He wears a thin black headband upon his brow.
Ryllandaras on the other hand has an appearance roughly similar to that of a werewolf. Shaggy white fur covers short but powerful back legs, all the way up to a pair of long, overdeveloped front limbs ending in wicked claws. Yellow fangs gleam inside the long snout and a cold intelligence shines from behind dark, predatory eyes.
Rallick springs into action, flying quickly up 20ft and over until he hovers just ahead of Lethe. He pauses for a moment to address the crowd,
"Ladies and Gentleman, show your appreciation to our brave opponents. Warriors from all corners of civilization, who have gathered here to die for your entertainment!"
He then turns his focus to Hyundia across the arena, and smiles malevolently before unleashing his arcane might. A few words and gestures from him and across from him the sand suddenly erupts in a writhing mass of sinister looking, black tentacles. They lash out at any caught within their reach, looking to entangle and crush the hapless victims.
Tentacles grapple check
Ryllandaras spreads his wings and skims the ground, trying to make a quick turn around the de-buff square. He then lands and waits for any poor soul to come within reach of his deadly claws.
Fly check for 90-degree turn, DC 15
Latrine screams, “No cooking without the chef, you might burn it!” as she flies up to T12 (20’ up).
Seeing the enemy group struggling against the tentacles she cackles with glee and looks to Rallick Nom, “I see you got the noodles started! Let me add some sauce!”. Drawing a rotten egg from her apron she speaks some arcane words over it and hurls it across the arena at the opposing group. Upon making contact the egg explodes into a vast could of noxious fumes.
Alignment: LE
For those that can see invisibility
This tall and solid built young man has the defined musculature and the refined features of an elf. You can just make out pointed ears protruding from his long black hair and mask that covers his nose and mouth. He has a powerful presence and steely green eyes. He wields a long thin blade and what seems to be carries a belt filled with pouches.
ooc]The DM was talking about the max arena height of 40'. If the walls are higher than 5'-10' like last arena, I will move to a different location :).[/ooc]
Moved myself slightly and the tentacles are centered in the same place as Latrine's cloud. The only real difference is that Lobo is now in the spell's area.
You can bring a summon in on the pre-round if you want. My internet was being wacky when I tried to tell everyone, then I forgot about it. Ray asked me about it. I was not trying to give him an unfair advantage.
Also, everybody needs to describe ANY MUNDANELY OBVIOUS SPELL EFFECTS< (like I have Mirror Image running) and have those linked to your character´s visual description. Deverau obliquely mentioned he is Invisible -- I´m pretty sure EVERYBODY should be aware of EVERYBODY´S general appearance and gear, from before the arena + 3 buff rounds started, as we approached the arena or whatever, so perhaps you can have a ´appearance before the arena´ with your general gear, and another ´current´ one spoilered for those with See Invisible (with any visually noticeable spell effects).
Everybody really should put this ´current appearance´ (with current visually obvious spell effects) at the TOP of their character profile, open for all to see as opposed to the spoilered stats. Otherwise, to force people to scroll/navigate to the correct post where you described yourself (and piece together what spells you OBVIOUSLY have in effect, and their character would know before targetting you) is just not going to be fun. I have done this for Hyundai.
I don´t know if anybody else is Invisible, but I suggest that everybody who IS invisible EDIT THEIR AVATAR IMAGE to show that (or maybe Wraith can do that, I can´t really check to see who in Invis and who isn´t):
I discovered it´s pretty easy to draw a filled circle over your face, set the border invisible and set the fill to a custom color that is white/light color with TRANSPARENCY. This makes it obvious to everybody that the character is Invisible on the map... Those with See Invisible or other abilities can ignore it, those without can act as if they aren´t aware of your location. I don{t see much better way to do it with this set-up. If any spells are stripped/negated, people can remove them, and if other players act before the icons are updated they will understand if they can ´see´ a negated Invisibility, for example.
Hopefully we can all get this together, and keep this thread to gaming.
Hyundai is NOT Grappled.
Fort Save vs. Latrine´s Spell (DC22):
Glancing at his comrade Bryan, the Enlarged Hyundai asks ¨Need help getting out of here?¨
Can I make a CMB check vs. the Tentacles´ CMD to remove Bryan from their grasp (I´m assuming he´s grappled), possibly pulling him along with me as I leave, though I don´t think that´s necessary? If not... Good luck Bryan :-)
Let´s really try and keep discussion stuff in the other thread,
it makes the flow of combat really hard to read with extraneous discussion.
I know I posted alot myself, but please if anybody has anything substantial to ´discuss´, just mention that you´re posting something in the discussion thread on X subject. I followed up on the Grapple rules question there.
The Six Kazes shake their head at the horrible stench, but are otherwise unaffected. Though he snarls in frustration as the tentacles coil around his body.
I am answering rules questions in the other thread if anyone is waiting for answers.
Six Kazes burst from the green cloud, and for a second you think, 'Ah… So that's why he's called the hyena…' as maniacal, yipping laughter follows the surprisingly fast pack across the arena floor and behind a wall.
From inside the cloud, you hear some satisfyingly violent retching.

Ugh... I posted my actions, but they ended getting posted to the discussion thread: here.
Short story, Hyundai charges out at unhuman speed, hitting two blue columns of light before incredibly leaping atop a wall, where he stands with his Bardiche in one hand and Potion in the other, savage fangs jutting out from his open mouth (and claws as well), all reflected in the 4 mirage-like images surrounding him.
------------------------------------
"My god that stinks!", Bryan exclaims as he struggles against the tentacles holding him down. He pulls an arm free and quickly casts a spell.
He floats up and away out of the tentacles grasp...

Let the slaughter begin Daveth thinks to himself as he takes to the sky with a devilish smirk spread across his unseen face taking a quick look around once in the sky Daveth spots a large rather well armed man atop one of the walls, more specifically he sees FOUR of the same man atop the wall. Jumping at the chance to kill four people at once and not really knowing or caring if it is some sort of spell Daveth jets towards the man taking up a spot of his own atop the wall. Daveth smirks once again as he raises his scythe and takes a swing at the hopefully unsuspecting man.
Flying to P9 and attacking Hyundai.
If it's a hit and I don't accidentally hit a image.

I was planning to leave that for Wraith of Hyundai, mainly because I've never had to make a % roll before >_> the few times they have come up in my games that I'm aware of they were made by the DM.
Edit: Got the link.
DAMN! They already started the show with out me!
Info
Move to U-14 and hide to keep an eye on someone trying to flank us and getting bomb ready just in case I see someone to close
Rolls
Stealth (Hide)
Lethe heads into the arena looking for something to hit
(Moving to L11)
Uh reason she is not using a remaining action is because she dosent have one (Two move actions to get to L11)
Daveth´s attack destroys one Hyundai, leaving 4 more :-)

Did you role the miss chance somewhere else? It should really be posted for posterity.
With regard to mirror image:
Percentages will be rounded down in case the question comes up, and the attacker can roll their own percentage. I would do it, but the I work odd hours and I don't want the game held up on my account.
I will roll for Daveth this time just to keep things moving.
If I roll 81 or higher then Hyundai is hit and critted. If not then he is saved by an image.
Mirror image
Daveth swings high and hard, and then suddenly reverses the grip on his weapon, and brings it back in the other direction with such speed that there is no time to react. The weapons cuts right through Hyundai in what is surely a killing blow, but the only thing that happens is the number of Hyundai's is lowered by one.
