OOC:
Yes, I noticed that :) But it would be unsporting to choose the target based on the AC after knowing the roll. If the Alpha had not fallen, Baracus would have pressed the attack to finish him. Even Baracus misses sometimes, and as a bonus he can blame it on Ybus!

This is why I love you guys! :-)

Erden fires at the alpha once more if it's still up, otherwise he sends rays of flame at the others.

Ybus' top-knot-singeing blasts bounce around the narrow tunnel, forcing everyone to duck. It throws Baracus off so badly, both his sword and fist miss the alpha completely.

Battle Music!

With a battle focus honed through years of training, Erden hurls fire and slays the alpha! The ground trembles as one of the lesser graboids (G2) bursts forth and begins devouring the alpha's carcass. The graboid eats its fill, then retches horribly, and begins to encase itself in its own slimy vomit! Encased in this pulsating, mucus cocoon ... begins to evolve!

Lingkon-Hok and Buluyagon attack the evolving graboid with spear and blade, but it's protected by its disgusting vomit cocoon! "Makabo," Buluyagon calls, "We've got to get out of here!"

The warband leader and the rest of the tikbalang finally manage to dispatch G1, but now they're having to deal with G4. What do you do?

Ybus taps Buluyagon's head. "Here, drink this," he says, uncorking a glass vial and shoving the orange liquid down the tikbalang's throat. Before the smoke begins to waft out from Buluyagon's mouth, Ybus points a finger-gun at the injured Lingkon-Hok and blesses him with the light of healing dandruff.

Ybus bolsters Lingkon-hok, who rushes the coccoon, pummeling it with his hooves. Baracus joins in, battering the coccoon and piercing it with the First Sword. The occupant thrashes about inside and leaks pus-like blood.

Battle Music!

Buluyagon gulps down the fiery drink, then belches fire at the coccooned graboid.

The rest of the warband press the attack on the other remaining graboid. Leaking blood from a dozen wounds, the monster seems on the verge of burrowing to safety.

Hanging on Buluyagon's shoulder and back, Ybus shouts at Baracus, "We have to make little carriers for you guys! Erden and I can keep our hands free, and wee-wee from on high whenever we want!"

Cackling at the idea of sitting in a baby sling on the back of a tikbalang, Ybus returns his sight upon the evolving graboid and summons radiant fire to fall from the tunnel ceiling.

Baracus crushes the shit out of the cocooned graboid, then Erden incinerates it for good measure! Overwhelmed, the last remaining worm burrows into the earth. The tunnel is clear now, quiet save for your quickened breathing, and the occasional grunt from the wounded as Apo Tagipusuon tends their wounds.

The warband pushes onward with an urgency fueled by the knowledge that every moment counts now. At length, the twisting tunnel network takes you as close to your destination as the scouts believe it will. You poke your heads out of the tunnel and spy a flat-topped rock rising 20 feet above the forest floor. The rock face appears scalable, but a crude wooden ramp has been built to access the top. A familiar sound, the thrum of a portal, can be heard coming from above. From the east, the distant sounds of battle where Apo Mai'ngor and the main force have the kalding forces engaged.

Makabo nods and gives the command, "We move in now! Stay quiet, strike fast, and strike hard!" With that, the tikbalang break cover and attack, catching the goatmen at the base of the rock by surprise. Spinning and leaping the tikbalang warriors tear into the defenders. Makabo's kampilan severs kalding limbs and necks.

A trio of axe-wielding berserkers defend the foot of the ramp, while up top a staff-wielding shaman appears to be preparing to rain down spells on Makabo and his warriors. The PHULES, Buluyagon, and Apo Tagipusuon haven't been spotted yet. What do you do?

"We gotta get up?" asks Ybus, peering at the shaman above. "Let's git-thee-up, then!"

Impressed with himself, Ybus fires off two arcane blasts of force energy at the shaman, hoping to disrupt the spell.

Battle Music!

The shaman blocks one of Ybus' beams with his skull-adorned staff, but takes the second beam in the face. (3 damage.) Angrily, the goatman levels a magical curse at the halfling, but Ybus is able to counter it with ease. (Counterspell triggered, and shaman's spell is ruined.)

Baracus charges the ugliest, meanest berserker (B1), but the goatman parries his sword thrust with the wide blade of its greataxe. The brute reverses its swing and brings it down on the raging half-orc, but Baracus parries in turn!

Erden blasts the second-ugliest berseker (B2) in the chest with a bolt of fire. (10 damage.) With a snarl, the goatman lowers its horns and charges. But it must get past Baracus to get to Eden, and so it rams the half-orc first. But again, Baracus kicks the goatman's horns aside!

Buluyagon follows Erden's example by breathing fire at the third billy goat (B3). (16 fire damage.) The kalding retaliates by ramming Buloy. Ybus' world is rocked as the goatman nearly topples Buloy, but the tikbalang laughs and manages to stay standing.

Makabo and the other tikbalang warriors take down mook after mook, but the goatmen keep coming, leaping from ledges in the rock! Now, a horn blast is sounded at the top of the rock!
