Sennoth's magic fizzles completely.

Serenity finds herself in the midst of a bearhug, as the owlbear's giant arms wrap around her and begin to squeeze.
 
Round 4
Concluded

The owlbear just squeezes tighter and keeps Serenity in its grip. {OOC: Rolled a 27 total.}

With the group's heavy hitter all tied up, things are definitely looking grim for the immediate future.

Round 5
Begin
 
Phaeder
HP:4
AC:19 (still fighting defensively)

As he listened to the woman, he watched her movements closely, wondering what would become of his team now that things looked so grim.

Once she motioned behind him, he simply looked behind him, wondering what she was talking about.

"I know enough to know that you will not succeed in the end...nature will run its course. Nothing good will come out of anything you do."

Things were not looking good at all, especially with some other enemy coming into the fray, but before she could even intend on leaving, he decided to try one more attack. Stepping forward, he swung his longsword at her with full intent to harm her.

Round 5
Continued

Phaeder's attack does not achieve the desired effect as Pacoth blocks it.

Kilral rushes forward shoulding "Hold on, las! I'll get ye out of there!" and tries to attack the Owlbear while its busy with Serenity. He finds a meaty spot but is unable to bring the beast down yet. (10 dmg to the owlbear)

Pacoth takes a quick swipe at Phaeder, but doesn't get through his defenses this time. "You can't stop me. You've got more immediate problems to worry about." and as she steps back one more time, Phaeder can feel the ground rumble behind him as a shadow falls over him. Another owlbear has emerged from the woods and come up behind him. Phaeder just barely managed to dodge the blow that would've taken his head clean off his shoulders. {OOC: Lucky bastard!}

The owlbear that has Serenity starts to squeeze, crushing Serenity within its mighty grip. (4 dmg)

Serenity, even through the grip of the Owlbear can feel the ground rumbling as another monster approaches to do battle. Apparently, Rakish has more family who want to play.
 
Serenity
HP=1
AC=13
Rage = 3 rounds

Another attempt was pathetically and uselessly made to escape. (Rolled a 2).
 
Serenity's attempt at escape was futile, but fortunately, her diplomacy was having better results.

The rumbling noise turns out to not be another owlbear, coming to seal the party's fate. Rather, it is the Grey Render, returned to protect its master.

The giant beast slashes both of its massive claws into the owlbear holding Serenity, and rends a huge chunk of flesh out of its side, exposing ribs and bloody muscle to the open air. Howlilng in pain, the owlbear drops Serenity to the ground, and turns to face this new foe.
 
Sennoth
HP: 6/6
AC: 12 ff10 vt12

Sennoth has used up all his big spells, and he didn't see himself throwing acid very far given his current predicament. The render's appearence was a good sign, he was about to try and get to the mysterious elixer in the hope it would turn him into a dragon or something, but with the new ally returned it seemed like too much of a gamble.

Instead he tried to wriggle free of the vines again.

Escape artist take 2 (1d20+2=3)
 
Round 6
Continued

Phaeder's attack missed again, but only by a hair.

Kilral sees the Render has returned and silently retracts every foul thought he's had about the big ugly thing. "Lass, the elf is in a bad way! He needs help. I know ye've still got some fight left in ye. Les go give him a hand. C'mere so I can tend your wound."

Kilral will delay for a moment, until Serenity can reach him, then he will cast a healing spell to tend her wounds.

Pacoth completely ignores Phaeder, and starts shrieking as she sees what the Render has done to Rakish. "What is that beast doing to my owlbear! He can't do that! I'll rip that pea-brained mind out of its thick skull for this!" She steps away from Phaeder and stares at the Render for a moment. When nothing seems to happen she looks confused, and lifts her free hand up to the side of her head. "Whats going on? Why can't I control it?!?"

Rikash moves closer to the Render, opening a path between Serenity and Kilral, though a dangerous one, and swipes a claw at him. He does his own bit of damage in retaliation, though he's clearly suffering from the wounds he's taken. The Render howls as it starts to bleed.

The other owlbear moves up to Phaeder and this time, he connects, dropping the elf to the ground. (8 dmg)

Serenity
HP=1
AC=13
Rage=2 rounds

She could have moved towards Kilral, but then the owlbear would have one opportune chance to take her down. Choosing, instead to take a 5 ft step back to avoid an AoO, she swung once more at the Owlbear.

Attack against Owlbear#3 (1d20+7=10, 1d10+11=17)

Note: This was the original roll, but it had flanking. Her position is unflanked, and so the attack is 8.

Apparantly, she's tired from getting her ass hugged too tightly. (Snorts)

Round 6
Continued

Serenity apparently ignores the please from the dwarf and the sight of the fallen elf. Instead, she chooses to flail about weakly at the owlbear who is tangling with the Grey Render. She is utterly ineffective at hitting the beastie.

Fortunately for her, the Render just grabs both of the things arms and rips them clean off, leaving the beast to bleed itslelf into a bloody pool of mess.

Kilral starts shouting obscenities at her. "May the Soul-Forger take ye, if the elf dies, ye bloody fool!"

{OOC: Holding for Sennoth.}
 
Round 7
Continued

Kilral moves as fast as his stubby legs will allow, to try and get close enough to help Phaeder. He knows he can't heal Phaeder without risking his own life, but since Serenity was no help, he has to rely on himself.

He starts moving and brushes past the Druid, leaving himself wide open for an attack. The druid slices her scimitar at him, and fortunately, misses.

The dwarf reaches Phaeder and casts the healing spell he was going to use on Serenity. (7 HP recovered)

Unfortunately, now he has left himself open for attack, and Pacoth simply smiles. "It was nice of you to come to me so I could kill you, rather than making me walk all the way over there to get you." She slices her Scimitar through the dwarf's armor and leaves him barely standing. To the other owlbear, she says "Go distract that Render. I'll finish these two off quickly."

The other owlbear moves towards the Render, piosed to strike.
 
Serenity
HP = 1
AC = 13
Rage = 1 round

Phaeder had been healed enough that he could fend for himself. The sorcerer was merely bound but wasn't being harmed, so he wasn't her main concern. The dwarf had been hit, but her chances of getting there, killing the attacker and saving the dwarf without herself being obliterated were quite slim. Plus, Phaeder was close enough to the Dwarf to protect him as well. She had a few options that she could have chosen, but she saw the opportunity of approaching Pacoth. Should one of them die, there would still be two that could attack her. There was too much benefit there. She decided to do just this. Advancing on Pacoth, she swung her halberd with a great amount of might.
