    Khair

    Khair continues to pepper the Pugwampis he can see from down below as his allies ascend the latter to fight the Pugwampis head on.

    Calling flame from beyond this plane once more, Khair launches it at a nearby foe.

    R2T7: Khair continues to pepper the pugwampis he can see from down below as his allies ascend the latter to fight the pugwampis head on. Calling flame from beyond this plane once more, Khair launches it at his previous foe as that one is still in range, and this time it hits the creature for 4 fire, and it lets out a hideous little scream of pain.

    R2T6: Trevorn finishes his spell! A golden eagle (normally brown, though this one actually has golden-tipped wings) appears above Khair and Trevorn points to Khair's target and shouts "SMITE!"

    The eagle flies to just over the slightly charred gremlin and nips it with a bite that glows slightly for 4. Meanwhile, Trevorn ducks down and hides behind the back pew somewhere.

    R2T5: Onyebuchi ambles up the ladder in a hustle and disappears from sight.

    R2T4: With Khair and an eagle against one puggie, Alain fires at the other one on the rafter, striking the pugwampi for 4 mod.

    End Round 2 ...

    R2T22:
    Alahazra astounds enemy and ally alike when she begins to float off the ground - not even a spell cast to do so. The eagle was an incredibly fast flier, Alahazra far less so ... to the point she probably walks faster. Still, she is vertical and at a height of 10' off the ground when she gets near the northern overhang.

    R2T18-16: Sounds of manic laughter above, including a hiss of annoyance from one of the allies.

    R2T13: Zaihi now seen standing over the overhang. She mixes various peppery cooking spices with other strange oils and tosses it over to the rafter to strike the beleaguered pugwampi and blasting the thing clear off the rafter and down onto the gore pile below ... its body a smoking ruin from exploding condiments and capsaicins. Unfortunately, so prolific was the peppery blast that the eagle was likewise blasted out of existence.

    R2T12-8: The pugwampi on the rafter limps to the relative south on the rafter and out of sight. More sounds of battle above, including ugly cry of gremlin pain. A new gremlin with bow drawn crosses to the midpoint of the rafter, as if fleeing from something.

    R12T7: Khair, that new pugwampi that showed is your only viable target. What do you do?

    R12T7: Khair sends out another gout of fire at the one pugwampi he can see, but it is a complete miss.

    R2T6: Trevorn removes from his hiding position in the northeast corner and starts to climb the ladder, but keeps having a lot of bad luck trying to get a hold of the ladder before he slides down again.

    R2T5: Sound of a snap kick followed by ugly squeal of pain.

    R2T4: Alain shoots the one visible pugwampi. It looks like he was going to split its head open, but that is just parallax error on the part of Khair's vision. Still, the arrow strikes solidly enough for 4 mod.

    End Round 2, Begin Round 3 ...

    R3T22:
    Alahazra flies up and cuts off the escape of the pugwampi that Alain just shot.

    R3T18-16: Another pugwampi is seen on a different set of rafters farther to the relative east, followed by a second. They seem to be hustling, as if running from combat.

    R3T13: There's a flash of flame somewhere in the remains of the choir loft, above.

    R3T11-8: Yet a third pugwampi is seen on that eastern rafter.

    R3T7: Khair, you see three pugwampis on a rafter that is 20' in the air, but 30' to the east of your position. Also, on the rafter somewhat above you (10' lateral to east, 20' high), Alahazra is flying above a rafter as if daring the pugwampi to cross. What do you do?

    R3T7: Seeing Trevorn preoccupied with the ladder, with a bellow Khair roars, ”Strike them down!” Khair moves slightly to be within range and fires flames upwards towards the trio of Pugwampi, and continues taking pot shots from below, but misses wildly.

    R3T6: Trevorn continues to have trouble and then finally makes progress up the ladder 10' up the ladder.

    R3T5: Sounds of a man intoning a spell from above, and then two bolts of force jump out to strike the lead and second pugwampi on the eastern rafter. The first bolt seems to simply fizzle against the lead, but the second bolt strikes the second pugwampi squarely for 4 force.

    R3T4: Alain repositions east and goes to shoot, but notches his fingers in his bow accidentally (1d6 bleed).

    End Round 3, Begin Round 4 ...

    R4T22:
    Alahazra leaves her current prey to attend to the triplets on the eastern rafter. She flies to the center rafter that traverses relative east-west connecting the lateral north-south rafters that the pugwampis travel on. From a short distance away she calls upon the power of the desert and lets loose with a fan of flame that washes over the three gremlins. The first gremlin sees the danger and hunkers down to only take 4 fire; but the ones behind him take 9 fire and 8 fire + disabled, respectively. The middle pugwampi falls to its death in the ruined chapel below.

    R4T18: The one that was in the lead bolts back along the rafter, the edge of the ruined choral balcony, and then south along the first rafter, hopping over its pal, and ends up at the crossbeam.

    R4T13: Zaihi is seen just stepping away from the ruined balcony and onto that first beam, balancing. She points her finger at the lone pugwampi and there is a loud, cracking report. The lone pugwampi gets struck by a high-speed blast of power for 4 force.

    R4T11-8: On the eastern rafter, the disabled pugwampi tries to move carefully closer to Alahazra, but it is not careful enough as she swings at it with her staff, but bad luck in hitting the side of the rafter keeps the pugwampi from getting struck. On the central rafter, the one that Zaihi just popped with an unknown energy scurries out of sight to the south.

    R4T7: Khair, your encouraging roar didn't seem to help anyone. Right now, there are two pugwampis at two different crossbeams, making them extremely hard to see and incredibly difficult shots. Meanwhile, Alain is several feet from you with bleeding fingers. What do you do?

    R4T7: Seeing no good shots and Alain’s bleeding digits, Khair takes the time to attempt bandaging his allies fingers (dismissing his flame blade to do so).”Hold a moment, let me see to that.” Khair says to Alain as he begins to attempt to stem the blood. For some reason, this bleed is deeper than expected, and his first aid did not stop the bleeding.

    R4T6: Trevorn continues to climb up the ladder and out of sight.

    R4T5: Onyebuchi is seen crossing the eastern rafter while balancing. He shoots a blast of water at the disabled pugwampi, but misses.

    R4T4: Alain takes 1 bleed. Lacking any other options, he goes for an impossible shot at the pugwampi directly above and slightly west, missing. That shot lost, he holds out his hand to Khair again for ministration.

    End Round 4, Begin Round 5 ...

    R5T22:
    Alahazra flies south of the central longitudinal rafter. She doesn't cast a spell, but she does concentrate, and forms a scimitar made of fire - not terribly unlike Khair's own weapon.

    R5T18: The pugwampi withdraws from Alahazra and out of sight.

    R5T13: Zaihi carefully crosses the beam to center. She points her finger at the one visible pugwampi and the loud report happens again, but misses the gremlin.

    R5T11: The disabled pugwampi withdraws away from Onyebuchi and moves farther relative east and south down yet another rafter.

    R5T7: Khair, bad luck with slippery, bloody fingers on a gauntlet or no, it is obvious that this type of bleeding wound seems like it will be a little more difficult to close than the standard bleeding wound.

    R5T7: Trying again to stem the bleeding, Khair says to Alain, ”You sliced yourself good here…”

    Again, Khair feels that he should have succeeded, but the battle in the rafters above causes dust to sift down and ruins his vision which in turn ruins his attempt.

    "Unbelievable," mutters Alain.

    R5T6: Trevorn is seen at the far eastern corner of the ruined choir loft overlooking the above area. The little cactusfolk seems to concentrate, and a large brown bird flushed with red-edged feathers and trailing fire is seen flying above. The fire-bird does a flyby attack on the disabled pugwampi, but misses and peels away to circle above.

    "I would never..." continues Alain.

    R5T5: Onyebuchi is balancing on rafters, and again he uses that strange magic to gather up and forms a ball of water in his hands before tossing it out to strike the pugwampi to blast it off the rafter and to its death below. No more pugwampis are currently visible.

    R5T4: "... call myself an archer," says Alain (3 bleed), "but I have spent countless hours on the bow. This is a neophyte's mistake. AND HOW IN THE NINE HELLS DID I SLICE MY FINGERS THROUGH MY GAUNTLET?!?"

    End Round 5, Begin Round 6 ...

    R6T22:
    Alahazra calls down, "We have cornered the survivors, though we don't see them. There is some type of nest up here. Shall we wait for you down there? or give pursuit now?"

    Zaihi delays ...

    R8T7: Khair, A thin balcony overlooks the chapel floor some twenty feet below. Two rows of tall-backed wooden choir chairs dominate the southern reach of the balcony, which hugs the chapel’s concave walls. The balcony falls away—collapsed for a span of perhaps fifteen feet—just on the other side of the choir area. To the east, rickety time-worn wooden rafters stretch across the whole chapel. Two huge sections of these rafters have been engulfed in a sort of nest comprised of a patchwork of random bits of cloth.

    Seeing that the attacks from the Pugwampi’s has ceased for a moment, Khair nods towards Trevorn saying, “We can wait for our companions to join us if they are willing and able. Then we will see what the Pugs are up to.”

    "I have an idea, if it will please you, sir," says Zaihi. She then whispers to the group. "I could put up some explosive pepper sauce to burn the weird nest-floor that they have. Either it will set it on fire, or it is really fragile and they will all tumble to the ground."

    Khair

    Considering Zaihi’s words, Khair thinks a moment and nods. “I’m in favor,” Khair says as he looks to the others, ”Any opposed?”

    A shake of heads, and Zaihi begins to move forward, but a grunt-squeal from some distance is heard.

    Begin Round One ...

    R1T24:
    A particularly large specimen - the same category as other pugwampis but definitely bulkier and more muscular darts off what looks like was a makeshift thrown in the far nest and hefts what to his Tiny frame seems like a massive maul, though in truth it is a finely crafted warhammer for the like of a gnome's hands. He hustles out of the far nest, south along a rafter, and to the far choir baclony.

    R1T21-18: Two other pugwampis scamper out of the nest as well, shooting arrows at Zaihi and Onyebuchi.

    R1T17: "I guess they heard and understood us, possibly that fat one clued them in," says Zaihi sardonically. She moves down the rafter and steps right over Blue without a care and then moves south along a crossbeam. She tosses her spicy pepper bomb at YellowRed (a new combatant) and it looked like it might have crit, but at the last minute the bomb moves only slightly off center, still hitting the creature squarely for 9 fire! The flare catches purple as well for 5 fire! Best of all, the ratty nest in that spot has a hole blown in it and both pugwampis fall below to an uncertain fate. Also, some type of makeshift throne likewise tipped over and fell downwards.

    R1T16: Alahazra flies out over the primary nest (the closer one) and 5' off of that level - which is plenty high enough to be out of reach to a Tiny pugwampi and its warhammer. She concentrates on what must be the chief. She nods in admiration when nothing happens. "Not my unluck, but your skill, corpulent chieftain, for you have resisted the desert's caress ... this time."

    R1T15: Alain springs into action, likely against the puggies that fell. He calls up, "I see them both! Both seem alive, but badly wounded. Covering one with my sword now."

    R1T12: Angry screech from below, fading out into a gurgle.

    R1T11.5-.0: Trevorn looks to the flaming bird and points to the far nest, plunging its beak into another pugwampi that wasn't part of the earlier fight, striking the gremlin for 3 mod + 2 fire. Trevorn tests the nest by stepping onto it ... and right through it ... to the floor below for a painful 9! He whimpers in pain down there, trying not to cry out and seem weak for doing so.

    R1T10: The far pugwampi that the redbird attacked steps away, shoots, and misses the avian.

    R1T9: Onyebuchi moves to the southern loft and then casts a spell. Instead of water, a sheet of flame covers the chieftain and Brown. The chieftain takes 5 fire, but the fire rolls harmlessly off the other pugwampi. A small portion of that nest flash burns away.

    R1T8: Khair, what do you do?

    Khair

    Settling into a stance, Khair makes his way across the rafters to Blue. With a dextrous twirl of his scimitar Khair strikes toward Blue, hoping to turn a successful strike into healing grace from his goddess.

    SwA: Enter Scarlet Einhander stance
    Move Action: move along the Rafters ~20ft west to blue.
    Standard Action: Initiate Enduring Crane Strike on Blue.
    Upon initiating the strike I will place an 8 temp HP guardian’s shield on Zaihi.

    Attack with Efreeti’s Brass Scimitar vs Blue: (1d20+10)[24] or (1d20+10)[22]
    Damage: (1d6+6)[11] Fire Damage + (2d8)[5] Fire Damage (Efreeti bonus damage) + (1d6)[1] Fire Damage (Scarlet Einhander bonus damage which I believe is the same type as base weapon damage please correct me if mistaken.)

    On a successful hit, heal (1d6+4)[8] hit points attempting to target Trevorn with the healing. If unable to target Trevorn then target Alain, if unable to target either of them (due to LoS or range or other) target self.

    R1T8: Settling into a stance, Khair makes his way across the rafters to Blue. With a dexterous twirl of his scimitar Khair strikes toward Blue, hoping to turn a successful strike into healing grace from his goddess. Blue is completely deadified as it squeals burning to the floor below and Trevorn gains 8 healing.

    R1T7: Below, Purple gets up an reposition.

    End Round One, Begin Round 2 ...

    R2T24:
    "I King Mockknock! You head I knock-knock!" shouts the fat pugwampi at Onyebuchi as it gets onto the choir loft and closes. As the king gets underfoot, bad luck with debris turns a would-be crit into a normal hit as Onyebuchi does a snap kick to strike the creature for only 1 mod. The king tries to shatter the man's knees, but he simply jumps up high to clear before landing again.

    R2T18: Brown falls back to the south and shoots Zaihi, but for some reason her wound doesn't really show at all (1 NL to the guardian's shield).

    R2T17: Sensing the guarding presence from Zaihi, she simply nods to him but has her battle to fight. She throws a bomb, and bad luck spoils it to land on the rafter next to Brown, who in turn ducks to only take 2 fire.

    R2T16: Alahazra flies down below, taking time to cast a spell and hold a charge.

    R2T15: Alain drops his sword down to put Yellow-Red out of its misery.

    R2T11.5: The fire-bird charges brown, but misses.

    R2T11: Trevorn stands and looks up, giving a shy wave of gratitude to Khair before moving northwest.

    R2T10: Yellow-Blue shoots at the fire-bird, striking it for 1 NL.

    R2T9: Onyebuchi steps back and casts a spell, a sheet of flame rolling over the king for 3 fire.

    R2T8: Khair, what do you do?

    Enemies on deck and in the hole ...

    Khair

    Seeing Onyebuchi on the backfoot from the advance of King Mockknock, Khair moves swiftly to assist. Carefully navigating the rafter around Zaihi, Khair moves to flank the King and says whilst looking down at his diminutive foe, ”I will be your opponent your ‘highness’.”

    A mark of holy energy attaches to the King. Censuring his attempts at harming Khair’s allies.

    R2T8: Seeing Onyebuchi on the back foot from the advance of King Mockknock, Khair moves swiftly to assist. He finds that in this balancing area, he cannot simply navigate around Zaihi as he would in a more open battlefield. He calls across at the diminutive foe, I'm your huckleberry I will be your opponent your ‘highness.'”

    A mark of holy energy attaches to the King. Censuring his attempts at harming Khair’s allies.

    R2T7: Below, Purple shoots Alain for 1 NL.

    End Round 2, Begin Round 3 ...

    R3T24: King Mockknock turns to face the challenging paladin some distance away and concentrates. Khair feels his wooden holy symbol start to vibrate, but he quickly grabs it and holds on, and that weird vibratory energy diminishes. The king spits in anguish at his failure.

    R3T18: Brown shoots at the redbird, but not before the bird pecks as a counter-attack for 3 mod + 3 fire ... enough to drop it.

    R3T17: Zaihi sees that Khair tried to get past her and submissively she says, "Please forgive my clumsy placement, sahib." She moves south down the rafter and into the remains of the loft - where Khair could cross. She looks at the king and points her finger and a tremendous report is heard, echoing off the stones of the cathedral. A bolt of energy shoots from her finger into the king for 2 force.

    R3T16: With the spell on her hand, Alahazra flies over and touches Alain. The energy releases from her hand into his shoulder and body for 16 healing.

    R3T15: Alain closes on Purple, the difficulty of walking between pews slowing him down, so he puts power behind his shot and nails Purple for 9 mod, dropping it.

    R3T11.5: The firebird flies towards Yellow-Blue and pecks at it before flying away.

    R3T11: Trevorn easily passes along the pews in defiance of the obstacles and gets to the ladder, but then finds himself unable to quite ascend it.

    R3T10: Yellow-Blue sees Khair balancing on the rafter and repositions before shooting at him. Khair finds he cannot maintain his stance while balancing, which in turn keeps him from dodging effectively, so a little arrow plinks him for 1 NL.

    R3T9: Onyebuchi doesn't back up this time, simply gathering his energy and releasing it at the king. He slips at the last second, but Alahazra's blessings see his shot hit true nonetheless, striking the king for 11 mod.

    R3T8: Khair, what do you do?

    Hurrying along the rafter, Khair nods to Zaihi in thanks as he passes by on the way to assist Onyebuchi.

    Now with firmer footing beneath him, Khair sets his stance before striking out towards King Mockknock.

    R3T8: Hurrying along the rafter, Khair nods to Zaihi in thanks as he passes by on the way to assist Onyebuchi. Unfortunately, he steps off the rafter and onto the nest but it doesn't hold his weight and rips right through and falls to the pews below, taking 6.

    End Round 3, Begin Round 4 ...

    R4T24:
    King Mockknock swings at Onyebuchi.

    R4T17: Another loud report as Zaihi shoots at the king.

    R4T16: At a height of 5' off the ground, Alahazra appears above the prone Khair. She casts a mysterious spell and touches Khair with a puff of flame that warms and soothes the paladin for 5 healing (and removes all NL). "Are you feeling better?"

    R4T15: Alain steps forward and with his longbow performs a point blank CDG on Purple.

    R4T11.5: Wahaj circles around to charge Yellow-Blue for 3 mod + 6 fire, dropping the pugwampi.

    R4T11: Trevorn goes up the ladder with a quick and lightened step.

    R4T9: Onyebuchi steps away from the king, forms a ball of water in his hands, and hits the king with it, but the king's breastplate protects the grotesquely fat pugwampi.

    R4T8: Khair, you are prone on the floor where the pews are down in the chapel. What do you do?

    R4T8: Smiling at Alahazra as he rises to his feet, Khair replies, ”Only my pride remains wounded. My thanks.”

    Khair then moves towards the ladder to rejoin the conflict above, and finds that shimmying through the pews is difficult terrain, slowing him down all the more, such that he doesn't even quite get to the center aisle.

    End Round 4, Begin Round 5 ...

    R5T24-17:
    King Mockknock rolls back up on Onyebuchi, who in turns tries to deliver a snap kick. It is so high it puts Onyebuchi off-balance and he stumbles back and off the choir loft to the chapel floor below for 10. Down below he calls out while wincing in pain, "See? I dodged ... !"

    But the king already does a quick about face and closes on Zaihi, and she can't defend herself against close-range attacks, but his fat frame huffed just to get to her so she just steps over him as he gets to her, and she makes it out to where Onyebuchi stood not but a few seconds ago and tosses a bomb that glances off the king for only 5 fire.

    "... your feeble attack, ..."

    R5T16: Alahazra flies over to Onyebuchi and casts a brief prayer on him to help him see the virtues of just battle.

    "...oh king!"

    R5T15: Alain shimmies along the pew before he gets to the center aisle.

    R5T11.5: The fire-bird charges the king, but fails to penetrate his armor.

    R5T11: Trevorn moves south along the rafters and casts a spell.

    R5T9: Onyebuchi stands and reports as he exits the pew to the south and moves west along the chapel wall. "It's just the king now; it shouldn't be long."

    R5T8: Khair, what do you do?
