Irommek listens to the Malison and nods his head.

"Ahhhhh, thanks for the advice.  I'll be sure to check it out by rolling your head down that direction and you can yell back if it's clear."

Picking up the scimitar, Irommek starts on his promise to remove the head from the shoulders of the talkative Yuan-Ti.  

Afterwards, he sees Felix on the ground and whispers another prayer to Valkauna to help keep his friend in the realm of the living.

Brunella feels herself shrinking. The world grows big and tall, and the floor rushes to meet her. "This is magic! I must attack! I must...". Brunella is distracted for a minute as her tail itches. Has she always had a tail? Her fur needs to be groomed as well. 

Brunella is confused. There was something about needing to attack, but she's not sure what. There is a loud commotion all around her, and big animals are being big and loud. She is in the middle, exposed. Her first instinct is to do what any rat would do. She begins to flee to the corner, where she can find shelter. A thought nags at her. There was something about friends. Friends in trouble. She needed to attack something. But what? 

Never mind. These thoughts are too complicated, and too ephemeral. Her previous life fades quickly, as if it were a dream.To live, a rat must hide. And so Brunella does what any rat would do. She scurries off to hide in the rubble.

Fenthaza seizes the opportunity. She takes the Ring from the unconscious Artus!

"Damn it, Ubtao, my friends are dying. Guide me!" Inete yells in despair.
Arcana check: 20

...Inete disappears.

With Brunella and Inete disappearing, Kurma's hopes are gone. "Oh Oghma, guide me. What should I do ?"
Flash of memories...his master...his lessons... he remembers one particular incantation.
"Oniss, get ready to back me up !"
Looking at Ras Ni, Sekelok and Fenthaza, he shouts: "THIS IS ENOUGH ! DROP !"

Gertrude is confused, everything is spinning around her. The last thing she sees is Brunella shrinking into a mouse (assuming Brunella went near the pillar), Gertrude tries to step closer (without leaving Fenthaza's reach) - and her rage again flies high, making her see everything in red. Lightning flies out from Gertrude and hits the last thing she just saw - Brunella in mouse form. 2 damage, (DEX DC 14 for half damage).

In panic, Gertrude stumbles a couple of steps back, bumping into Sekelok (again without leaving Fenthaza's reach), she pivots around, and twice attacks recklessly the weapon he is holding in his hands. 

to hit: 21 and 14

"Dragonbait, Irommek, help me here!!! We need to bring them down!!"

Death Save: 14

Oniss sees Fenthaza grab Artus ring and believing it would be I'll advised for her to have takes action.  Oniss foolishly runs towards her and attempts to tackle her and take the ring.

Strength check?  9

Ha!

OOC: omg, I laughed so hard :)

Seeing Bag of Nails deal with the fleeing Yuan-Ti, Irommek turns to take in the chaos he hears unfolding behind him.  Gertrude's yell grabs his attention and he runs to help her.  Out of the corner of his eye he sees Oniss bounce off of Fenthaza.  A smile crosses his face as he closes the distance to join the fight.

HA!  That helf-elf has more grit than most battle-hardened Dwarves that I've fought with over the years!   …It’s too bad his muscles don’t match his determination.  Well, I’ll not be outdone by him and I’m determined to make it through this alive so I can spend the rest of our time on this island teasing him about that move!!

“It’s time we dance Ras!  I’ll be happy to help you finishing shedding that skin that keeps falling off and deliver you to Valkauna and death’s door for good!”

Positioning himself opposite of Ras from Gertrude, he forces the fat snake to divide his attention and begins to attack with his scimitar.  He focuses on the Jabba-like creature and digs deep to push himself further than normally possible, fueled by a hatred for Ras and his followers and a deranged chuckling at Oniss’s assault.  In the distance, Irommek could swear that he hears a lute playing a lively tavern waltz.   

“Rise and shine Felix!  Care to join our little dance?!?”

OOC:

Attack Ras (24), damage if hit (9), attack (19), damage if hit (10)

If any of those hit, spending superiority die to add to damage (2) and use Menacing attack (WIS save from Ras Nsi or he becomes frightened)

Using action surge to cast healing word on Felix – he gains max heal of 6HP.

Ras Nsi WIS save: 19

After tasting Irommek's fury, Ras Nsi waves his hand, making the spell fade into nothingness (Counterspell).

Dragonbait keeps attacking the Yuan-ti Malison with fists. He hasn't realised Artus' status yet.
Attack: 18 Damage: 3
Attack: 21 Damage: 3

Ras Nsi casts another Blight on Brunella.
Necrotic damage: 48

The Goliath tried to take his weapon, now Sekelok goes to give it to Gertrude. From the sharp end. Then goes on the Tortle.

Brunella bends over, crippled in pain by Ras Ni's blight. She heaves, vomiting blood and biles as waves of nausea racks her body. Shaking, she focuses her determination and once again tries to summon her rage. She is exhausted, physically and emotionally, but cannot give up. Gertrude has fallen, and brave Irommek is throwing himself at the snake wizard. She grabs Ras Ni's wrist, and with overwhelming dwarven power, jerks it at a ninety degree angle. The wizard yelps in surprise, and she grabs the flaming blade from his hand. Letting go of his wrist, she puts her second hand on the sword's pommel and dances around to stand opposite Irommek. She acts as hammer to Irommek's anvil, flaking the abomination, and drives the blade deep into Ras Ni's chest. 
"Where are you Inete?" she cries in desperation

bonus: rage
attack 1: Disarm Ras Ni (natural 20)
attack 2: Attack Ras Ni with longsword two handed. 
  Result: 2d20kh1 (10, 5) + 7 Total: 17   Damage: 1d10 (9) + 4 + 2 Total: 15

Ras Nsi sees the sword, his sword, coming down like an eagle preying on its prey. Waving his hand, the attack gets blocked by a shield spell.

With the Ring in her possession, Fenthaza figures it is time to leave these weaklings to their fate. She dashes back toward the hallway leading to the temple.

The Yuan-Ti Malison tries to disengage and leave as well, but Bag of Nails is too quick to follow and stab him in the back.
Attack: 25 Damage: 6
Attack: 15 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
