Mica DC13 CON save: 15.

 Mica holds his breath and stands tall as the hot gas expelled by the elemental washes over him, but he is unable to avoid the creature's jaws as it snaps at him.  Falling back, he collapses on the bridge, unconscious.  Death save: 20.

.

[Technical question: Death saves begin the next round after falling unconscious, right?]

[Yes.  Death saves occur on what would have been the PC's turns, when the PC has been reduced to 0 hp, but not outright killed.

So as this was Mica's turn, the death save is appropriate in this case.

Nalomanterys is up.]

Seeing Mica fall and not stir, Nalomanterys curses. He checks himself for a healing potion to use but cannot find one, so instead yells out "Man down!" and hopes someone else can help him.

Seeing nothing else to do but continue to batter this salamander monstrosity, the wizard whips his wrist and causes another rock to fly toward the enemy's eye.

DC 14 dex save or else the creature takes 8 magic bludgeoning damage (rolled in game log) catapult

Catapult save:  4

Nalomanterys' rock slams violently into the forehead of the monster.  It staggers, but does not yet fall.

1. Meili
2. Danica 
3. Ran
4. Hew
5. Mander
6. Mica
7. Nalomanterys

The creature was vulnerable but Nalomanterys' warning was not lost on her either. It was probably not the best time for aerobatics, yet, the faster the creature would go down, the safer everyone would be. Meili tried to compromise: two fast kicks of the flaming body with the last kick used to propel her in Mica's direction. She landed by his side to touch the man and revive him with her battle energy.

Action: First kick: Attack: 21 Damage: 5
BA:          Flurry of Blows: 11 Damage: 6
Replacing one of the unarmed strikes of FoB with  Hand of Healing: 7 (on Mica)

(Is it possible for Ran to get past the logjam of people on the bridge to get within melee range of the salamander?)

Meili:

[Before we resolve the events of your turn, please make the D20 roll noted in the spoiler on post 2240.]

Ran:

[We can address your question more clearly once we see how things shake out with Meili.  In any case, it will be a tight fit and may require DEX saves depending on what you try to do.]

(Ran was looking at just trying to get into melee range to take some of the heat off of Mica and Danica - if he can't get past, would he be able to just grab them and drag them out of the way?)

Straight d20: 1

Meili, as you prepare to execute your plan, there is a surge of bubbling magma below, briefly illuminating the chamber just a little more brightly.  The magic of your cloak which permits flight fails you, dropping you onto the back of the monster.

Make a DEX save, with the following results depending on the roll:

• On a result of 18 or higher, you land expertly and have your choice of the following:
  • Remain on the creatures back,
  • Jump to land in front of the creature (near Mica and Hew),
  • or Jump to land behind the creature (on the bridge on the other side from Hew and Mica)
• On a result of 14-17, you land safely but have to jump off the monsters back.  You have your choice of the following:
  • Jump to land in front of the creature (near Mica and Hew),
  • or Jump to land behind the creature (on the bridge on the other side from Hew and Mica)
• On a result of 9-13, you stumble and fall off the creature, landing prone and taking 2 bludgeoning damage.  Roll 1d4:
  • 1-2, you land prone behind the monster,
  • 3-4 land prone in front of the monster, in the space behind the prone and unconscious Mica
• On a result of 8 or below, you tumble off the monster and into the magma, taking 62 fire damage

[Since this is already complicated, we will say none of this costs you any movement.]

Here goes nothing! DEX save: 8 (14)

The flight was not as precise as Maili had hoped, but she did land near Mica, and it was all that mattered at the moment.

(Would attack and healing stay? If not, can she use healing kit on Mica?)

[Yes, attacks and healing from that round can still play out.] 

Meili is able to land one blow in passing to the magma monster, and rouse the unconscious Mica from his stupor.  

[Mica is awake, with 7 hp, but prone next to the monster.]

The magma beast flares its gills again in response to Meili's attacks... but instead of the cloud of sulfurous gas, there is just a hiss of steam.  The reddish glow of the monster dims, and its head dips.  Quickly, the molten rock of the creature hardens into glass-like igneous rock... a black, glossy statue that was once a monster.

[Congratulations, the party has cleared the last of the enemies lurking inside the old dwarven forge of Hrakhamar!]

Nalomanterys wipes his forehead with the back of his trembling, soot-covered arm. Repeatedly tugging on the collar of his robe to create airflow, he takes a seat in a "cool" spot in the corner, as far away from the bridge as he can get. The others will be able to take care of Mica, he thinks to himself, as he sees the ranger rising after the lizard's onslaught.

After a few minutes, Nalomanterys is as recomposed as he can be given the current situation. "I don't suppose we need to reclaim the gauntlet anymore." he announces, implying that the Dwarves will be able to take it at their leisure with all the Newts dead. He steps over the body of the dead warlock and pulls its amulet out of its scaled hands. He inspects the red crystal, wondering its worth. [DM, I need a gem worth 100gp to use as the material component for identify. Would this fit the bill?]

The wizard then takes a passing glance at the door and the chest, expecting his party to be more interested in them than himself.

Meili straightened up and helped Mica to his feet. Obsidian-like sculpture still emanating heat noticeable even above the river of lava did not encourage lingering on the bridge. But once past it, she looked back.

"From a distance and when not spilling lava, it looks even... decorative?" The place was far from a Zen garden, though, to relax and meditate on the rocks. She turned away and went to the doors, not touching them yet but studying.

"We do not have proof that we really cleaned the place up. Nor did we completely finish the job - there are those strange creatures in the mist still, right? Hope they do not count. Still, I'm afraid we need to get past the door." There was no regret in her voice, however. More like curiosity, despite the exhaustion the fights left everyone with.

"Aren't you curious?" Meili set down on the floor by the door. "But we need some rest first."

Ran looks out at the new statue on the bridge a few moments than shakes his head. 

He turns back to the door.

"If there isn't a lever somewhere, there must be a key." Ran says, then look around the cavern. "Maybe a lever somewhere someone could watch the door safely from?"

Ran looks for any outcroppings, cave openings, other ledges a sentry could watch this doorway from.

Nalomanterys, upon inspection, the amulet around the newt's neck is not a gem... rather it is an unusual type of fire quartz.  It is identical to the other pieces Ran found in the chest inside the alcove.  While not the type of gem you need, you recognize that each of these pieces of fire quartz would work well as a spellcasting focus.

Ran, the only lever you can see is back on the other side of the bridge, past the monster's 'corpse'... the same lever Meili used to open the adamantine gate leading into the forge room.
