R2T8: Natalya casts mirror image on herself and draws her sword. There are now four Natalya's shifting in and out of each other (3 images + herself). She draws her sword and now holds her mithral rapier and silver dagger.

End Round 2, Begin Round 3 ...

R3T28: Ichibod shoot a scorching ray at the bug on the wall. These things are supernaturally fast, but Ichibod's aim - aided by Serafaim - manages to hit the thing for a blistering 24 fire. The thing shrieks as its chitin cracks and splits and the monstrosity falls to the ground.

He shouts at the Derro “Flee Derro or you will feel the flames next!”

"Ichibod ..." says the Scribe. "We already established from Jolly's experiences that she doesn't speak Taldane, only Aklo. But keep chatting if it makes you feel better."

SA was used to blast the shriezyx, and doing so was a great job. However, it takes a SA to take an action to detangle yourself. You can move at half-movement, but you'd still be entangled.

Also, "Common" language will be referred to hereafter as "Taldane," its proper name. I've always hated hearing "Common" with no proper name for the most widely spoken language. It always lacked flavor.

R1T25: The Scribe, seeing how difficult these things are to attack with their combination of hard shells and fantastic speed, takes a different tactic. He fights defensively alongside Serafaim if that is the continued tactic while also engaging tactical parries. But to that he does an acrobatic leap upwards and comes in with his ranseur from a height while faking the creature out. All of its speed is for naught, but the Scribe's weapon still misses.

"It seems that you are more than just an academic, Scribe," says Serafaim. "Fine dance moves, but they gained you nothing in the end other than keeping us aligned for defense, and perhaps Jolly as well if he is more careful."

R3T21: Jolly, you are wounded and entangled by webbing. What do you do?

You have the Scribe next to you FD, with Serafaim next to him. You are entangled (look it up). There is no "5' free move" since 1/2 speed when entangled is effectively difficult terrain.
