Round Two: Xeliss, Hunter, Melpomene, Elfog, Sarith
Xeliss transforms into a giant scorpion and rushes out to join her friends in the furious melee. She claws and stings the vile creatures. Based on the creatures' reactions, they are not resistant to her natural weapons. The one she hits with her stinger obviously feels the effects of the poison, but not as strongly as it could have.

The Shield Guardian follows Xeliss' orders without hesitation, moving up and smashing the face of one of the monsters. The thing staggers under the blow, but doesn't go down.

Hunter's magic missiles slam into the creature one after another, scorching its hide and hurting it badly, but it remains standing.

The demon that Melpomene targets with her magical assault, seems to shrug off the psychic attack as if it were nothing.

Pulling out the latent power of his clan's ancestral weapon, Elfog can hear the voices of his clan's heroes echoing in his mind, all raised in a song of war. His attacks are empowered, with two quick chops, guided by the hands of his heroes, he takes one of the beasts down.

Sarith moves gracefully under the onslaught, refusing to let his injuries slow him down. His blades flash out over and over, drawing blood from the demons with every strike. He puts most of his focus on a single creature, hoping to bring the number of enemies down to something more manageable and ends up taking down the one that Xeliss poisoned with her sting.

Does the Giant Scorpion get 2 claw attacks plus the stinger, or just the 1? Oh wait nevermind my other attack missed.

Reveling in the rush of battle and the destruction of the demons, Mai'ngor sings in the tongue of his forefathers as he dances the war dance.

Round Two: Enemies
The demons, though their numbers are less, attack just as fiercely before, and with no regard for their own safety. They dart quickly through the melee, slashing and biting as they go. The warriors on your team fare far better than before now that they have help.

Mai'ngor avoids damage completely, fully into his war dance.

Sarith takes a claw to the chest, sending out a spurt of blood and (25 vs AC. Damage: 15)

Elfog, empowered by his ancestors, manages to fend off most of the blow, but one manages to slip through, drawing a line of blood next to his right eye as he narrowly avoids a fatal blow (23 vs AC. Damage: 9)

Hunter continues her magical assault, keeping her glyph of magical missiles active and launching another flurry of arcane darts. The circular glyph of banishment still hovers in the air next to her as she maintains her concentration.

Unfazed by any of his wounds, Elfog bellows out, cursing at the demons in his native tongue as Tolvihar's blade slices through the air. The barbarian has lost all semblance of control as he hacks, spits, and slices into any demon close enough to feel his anger.

Round Three: Players
Mai'ngor continues his furious attacks on the demons, Sinag's light-blade cutting into D5's legs, dropping it to the ground and then plunging his blade into its chest, causing it to disappear in a burst of smoke. Sweeping back to his feet, his brings his blade across at chest level, driving D10 back with a deep gash across its chest.
OOC:
Mai'ngor, because of your War Dance, your Kris attack should have done an additional 2 points of damage
Hunter's magic missiles strike the demon that the Shield Guardian has been pounding in quick succession, blasting it into smoke.

Melpomene's light-rock lands exactly where she'd aimed it, lighting up the three uninjured demons for Elfog to see.

Seeing a new target clearly, Elfog wades into the crowd of demons, swinging Tolvihar wildly. With a few quick sweeps of his axe, he takes one of them down and injures another.
OOC:
I'm unsure where Elfog is getting four attacks from? With Extra Attack and Frenzy, he should have three
Sarith joins scorpion-Xeliss and, with a few quick stabs, manages to finish D1 off for good.

The men guarding the casters hold their positions, though obviously it's not easy, "Hold ranks, men!" Fisk yells to his men, "Break rank and I promise they'll come for the women!"

Demon 1: DEAD (Claw attack from Xeliss, slain by Sarith)

The shield guardian continues its assault, shifting to the remaining damaged target as it pummels it with its fists.

I turn towards the untouched demon, slashing and stinging it to the best of my ability. "We've got this!" I would say, if I were in my gnome form. Instead, it sounds a lot like chittering and scraping.

Between Xeliss and the Shield Guardian, the rest of the monsters go down, all of them fading into a black mist as they are killed. As the last one falls, the chamber is silent once more aside from the heavy breathing of your mighty warriors.

Letting Tolvihar fall from his grasp, Elfog falls onto his backside.

"Remind me... not to do that again unless I be needing to..." he says, forcing the words out between heavy breaths.

Hunter keeps her eye on the hovering glyph, concentrating on her spell during the last moments of its duration. "Well done," she says to the soldiers around her. "Their assault breached naught but their own ambitions, thanks to your resolve. We should see to the wounded."

Melpomene moves to Elfog and lays a gentle hand on his shoulder as she sings a soothing melody.

"Are these fiends just randomly scattered about the Underdark or do you think there might be a pattern?" Mai'ngor asks no one in particular.
