With his back to a proverbial wall, and unwilling to move any closer to Aradurk for the time being to give chase, the slightest hint of worry crosses Karst's face as he lashes out at Tanakir, moving back on his heels, but it becomes clear that the genasi has the upper hand for the moment. He bats away the slaad's claws and using his club, blocks the path of its nasty jaws. In that moment, Aradurk arrives again on the opposite side, creating enough noise for the slaad to accept only a grazing hit before dancing away from two more quick lunges.
Round 4Order: Players <===== Rycider, Tanakir and Wes have turns left Karst
Placement: Karst is engaged in melee combat with Tanakir. Aradurk is 15 feet away. Rycider is by the portal, 20 feet away. Wes is in the corner of the room, 30 feet away.
Tracking: Karst is still moving quickly, but is wounded and has begun to show slight worry. Aradurk has taken 34 damage. Tanakir has taken 33 damage.
OOC: Aradurk has taken his turn in round 4. Once Rycider, Tanakir and Wes have taken their actions, it will be Karst's turn to act.
The death slaad, aware of the sudden danger above him, dives to the side, avoiding Tanakir's flame but rolling right into Wes's own. As before, the flames aren't as effective as expected, mostly rolling off of the slaad's scaly skin. He bounds back to his feet, glaring at Tanakir, but at Rycider's shout, turns behind himself to look at the portal, worried about some incoming danger long enough to distract him through a new round of attacks.
Round 5 Order: Players <===== Karst
Placement: Karst is engaged in melee combat with Tanakir. Aradurk is 15 feet away. Rycider is by the portal, 20 feet away. Wes is in the corner of the room, 30 feet away.
Tracking: Karst is still moving quickly, but is wounded and has begun to show slight worry. Aradurk has taken 34 damage. Tanakir has taken 33 damage.
Wes will continue to sling fire bolts at Karst. Being essentially out of magic now. The exhausted gnome, sweating from his own fire creations keeps fighting. He will move five feet closer to the fight.
OOC: Sorry about the placement error, Aradurk was actually already in range from the melee attacks the round prior.
DM Screen:
51/154
Aradurk uses the distraction to his advantage, pressing the attack and scoring the first two serious hits of the contest. Startled back to the business at hand, Karst allows another mostly-ineffective fire bolt from Wes to strike him, focusing instead on Tanakir's swinging club. The slaad has to practically drop to the ground to avoid the strike, and as it pops back up, the pommel of Rycider's dagger plunks into the back of his head.
Round 5 Order: Players Karst <=====
Placement: Karst is engaged in melee combat with Aradurk and Tanakir. Rycider is by the portal, 20 feet away. Wes is in the corner of the room, 25 feet away.
Tracking: Karst is bleeding and slowing down. Aradurk has taken 34 damage. Tanakir has taken 33 damage.
OOC: It's Karst's turn, and then back to the players.
Bite vs. Tanakir:27 Claws vs. Tanakir: 17 Claws vs. Tanakir: 12
Karst bats his claws one after the other into Tanakir's club, moving it to the side and opening a path for him to lunge forward, sinking his teeth into the genasi's shoulderblade, dealing 8 slashing and 7 necrotic damage.
Round 6 Order: Players <===== Karst
Placement: Karst is engaged in melee combat with Aradurk and Tanakir. Rycider is by the portal, 20 feet away. Wes is in the corner of the room, 25 feet away.
Tracking: Karst is bleeding and slowing down. Tanakir has taken 48 damage. Aradurk has taken 34 damage.
Tanakir brings his club back towards Karst-Slaad's head, cursing him in Primordial, "Burn, you vermin! Burn for your sins, there will be no repentance for you!"
Attack: 18 Damage: 11
(I am going to be on a plane for most of today and may not have access to the internet for the next several days, if Tanakir comes up again feel free to bot him with another green-flame blade or a sacred flame)
As the fake Karst takes the hit he roars in Aradurk's face showing razor sharp teeth to the half orc. "Miss your friend? I killed him before I took his shape you know."
OOC - Just for flavour, sorry for having been out of the loop for a while - glad to see Barty hasn't made me kill you all in my absence ;)

Hearing the taunting of the Slaad, Wes begins to running his full movement into the fray Wes jumps into the back of the Slaad (flavor not intending a grapple) pointing his wand directly into the monstrosity’s neck will fire magic missile exploding force damage into the pseudoKarst.
9 force damage.
(whatever dm decides to handle the being on his back or falling off him during the attack is fine.)
Rycider pulls a blowgun from her cleavage. Darts are pulled from a concealed pocket of her corset. A small vial of pale green liquid is revealed to be nestled in her hair. She prepares three darts by dipping them gingerly in the poison. She takes a knee.
Karst's taunt is interrupted by the club of Tanakir crashing across the slaad's jaw; though the fire does not sting much, the weight of the club certainly does, and the creature staggers into the waiting Aradurk, who has already torn his sword through its back once. Karst ducks, off-balance, underneath the half-orc's sword, which is promptly turned downward to slash again across the hide of the slaad's back. Wes grabs ahold of Karst while he is bent low to the ground, wrapping his small arms around the slaad's neck and firing three missiles of force from a wand directly into its forehead. Blood soaks the stone beneath the contest while Rycider prepares three poison needles for her blowgun.

Placement: Karst is engaged in melee combat with Aradurk, Tanakir, and Wes. Rycider is by the portal, 20 feet away.
