Elirion's satisfaction that her spell seemed to work correctly is short-lived as she catches sight of the gnoll chief leaning in to bite her.I knewI should have run, but it was worth seeing, she thinks.
Reflexively, she brings up a magical shield that blocks the gnoll's teeth just inches from her throat. Similarly, the feint that the gnoll makes with it's right arm is easily blocked, but Elirion is unable to evade the other claw as it sneaks under her defences. She stifles a scream, and glares directly at the gnoll, her anger clear.
"You should have run," she says through gritted teeth.
He is able to avoid Lanky on his first attempt, but fails when Lanky's long bugbear arms wrap around him. He utters something incomprehensible when they leave the ground...

Tastie giggles as the Bugbearballoon rises up in the sky. Her gaze falls upon the other misguided gnolls. “Better to run now, dogs. I wonder who will be captain now, hmm?”
She doesn’t listen for a response as she flicks her horn, and a sound emanates much louder than it should, ringing the air around her. She casts toll the dead at B. DC 14 wisdom save or take 4 necrotic damage.
Remi sees the gnoll chieftain being lifted up in the air and smiles, but it is a grim smile as he coughs out some blood, grievously wounded. He drops his short swords and pulls out his long bow and an arrow, taking a shot at Pack Leader A to the northwest.
Long bow : Attack: 10 Damage: 12
Afterwards, he moves south 15 feet, 1 square south of Elirion and uses a cunning action to hide in the bush from Pack leader B (and A if possible), holding pressure on the gash in his side.
Stealth : 18

E'Lar, seeing his foe fly up beyond his reach, decides AC is more important than he thought and storms over to Pack leader B. Remi attempts to pierce the chief while wrapped in bugbear arms, but he is squirming to get away and the arrow goes wide.
Pack Leader A does not see Landee hiding behind the log as he comes closer to the fight (15' W of Elirion) and sees that his chief is currently flying above, he tries to assist and shoots his longbow at Lanky.
Attack: 5 Damage: 10
Attack: 17 Damage: 9
As E'Lar is right in front of Pack leader B, he attacks him with his glaive
One moment. Lanky has shield, he can cast it and still hold onto the chief, since he only need one arm to grapple. I am fine with him dropping his weapon. He will still take 14 dmg thou. his ac is currently 21 right now
Elirion glances up at Lanky expecting that the Chief will likely fall from the sky soon. She does not want to be in the area when he does. Looking around, her eyes fix on Gnoll B, with which she has unfinished business.
Moving northeast under the Chief and then Lanky, she turns to face Gnoll B when she is past where Lanky would land. Arcane words and gestures follow as flames collect around her hand, held in place by an effort of will but ready to throw at Gnoll B.
She sends a quick mental command to Arara who swoops into the distract the gnoll then returns to Elirion. As Arara flies by, Elirion launches the flaming bolt toward him.
Move: NE x 2 or 3 (squares don't seem to line up properly - wants to be clear of Lanky/Chief!) Action: Ready Fire Bolt for when Arara distracts the gnoll. Attack (at initiative 20): 21 Damage: 12
Gabin runs up next to Landee to be between him and gnoll A, and then fires off both eldritch blasts at the gnoll, knocking back with each one that hits

As Arara flies by Gnoll B, Elirion gets her fire bolt off, and even with some cover behind the tree trunk the gnoll ignites in flames and is killed instantly.
Landee continues to cower as Gabin gets between him and Gnoll A. Firing off his eldritch blasts, the first one goes wide, but the second is a direct hit, sending the creature back again. It snarls in frustration as he cannot seem to get close to the party.
The chief growls at Lanky, saying words that Lanky cannot comprehend but gets spittle on him as the chief continues. Once the chief figures he has said his peace, he bites at Lanky, then claws at him, trying to get free.

The chief's bite doesn't even come close, too distracted on what he was yelling, but his first swipe of his claws almost gets him - Lanky's shield is still in affect and protects him. His second claw swipe, however gets past the shield and knocks Lanky out.
This time they do fall from the sky.. dealing the chief 6 falling damage

When Elirion glares at the chief, he gives her a very bloodied smile.
