Noticing Saros slightly isolated from the group, Ghee continues to crouch run around the box hedges to AP,19.
"Gonna need tae stand up soon, ma poor knees are startin' tae groan."
Keeping his head on a swivel, he remains ready to dodge any spell likely to be slung his way.
(OOC Struggling to see what Ghee can do to bring LWB down, if he comes to take on Saros, hopefully he can either be Johnny on the spot with some healing or jump LWB and use his last ki point. Also going to spam dwarven fortitude again for 8 healing. Only one hit die left!)
Ghee continues to keep his head low and lets his natural healing prowess do its job. (Ghee heals for 8 HP.)
Bleep pops out, shoots, moves, and hides. Neither his shot nor his attempt at hiding are effective this time around.
Darrik continues pursuing the enemy {BA-11}, grabbing one of his javelins from the floor as he goes. The subsequent throw flies way too low, and the projectile lands far away {AR-6}.
Saros teases Lord Weirding via a magical message. He responds with a loud: "INSOLENT FOOL!" and stares the gnome down, preparing to strike.
Infuriated, Lord Weirding flies quickly in Saros' general direction, gaining altitude for some additional safety. He is now, 70 feet off the ground {AJ-20}. Not wanting to risk letting this insulting gnome get away with it, the lord produces many more force missiles, and even sends some them to pester other foes.
Khan and Ghee are caught in the "cross fire," sorta speak. They can do little to avoid the ever accurate darts. (Ghee takes 4 force damage; Khan takes 7 force damage.)
(For now...) Saros is also hit, not only going unconscious but also being pushed closer to death (DEATH saving throw failure: 1)
Saros, however, has another small victory to celebrate. The gnome pulls up his own version of a magical shield and avoids all damage. (reference.)
(Ang and Khan are up next. Keep in mind that the enemy is at {AJ-20} now.)
Ang sees Saros going down again. After a quick thinking on the situation she decides that as long as she can heal her companions they might stand a chance. Using all her energy, she dash toward Saros and hides in the closets bush.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Khan staggered back a step for the two darts of force to crash into her. And yet with a fire undiminished in her eyes, she sprung forward as only a Grung could, closing the distance int he horizontal at least, before taking aim once more. "I take your skull this day, monster! So say, I. Khan! Future Queen of Grung!"She yells as she loosed one empowered bullet after the other in rapid succession!
Movement: To AM-24 (or AM-19,Jumping over the hedge area if that's necessary to get within long range).

Saros will cast Shield as a reaction, a painful chuckle forced out as he deflects the magic missiles hurled at him
Not going down...so don't know if you want to give the others a chance to repost.
Ang proudly adjusts her "healer's hat" and makes her way to Darrik {AZ-12}. She puts some soothing ointment on the dwarf's recent burn mark and sees it take immediate effect. (Darrik heals 13 HP.)
Khan reduces the distance between her and the lord, proclaims her royal aspirations, and shoots two more bullets at the floating target. This time, both pebbles fly wide of their mark.

Bleep, now out of bolts, moves back east toward the balcony, dashing (both regular and cunning flavors) to get to his destination (AV-24) (SPEEDFROG!).
@Lerus - quick question - how far is it from Saros's position to the manor door, or at least cover from Weirding. I would like to try to reposition him closer to hte manor doors or inside so that he can maintain cover (and prone status) to defend against Weirdings attacks but need to know what is in the next map over essentially....
If he can achieve this with the 37-8 feet that he has available with a Dash from here then I am okay with you making assumptions about location, so long as he can get cover and go prone to make it really difficult for Weirding to target him.
With Weirding closing on his location, Saros eyes the wizard, grits his teeth and calls out "Is that all you got...you should probably just kill yourself before these Grungs get hold of you", then pushes off the Kamadan, shakes his head to try to focus again despite the pain, and heads off at a run (using Dash) toward the manor doors, seeking to open and duck inside prone. If they don't open, he will look to use any remaining movement to seek cover away from line of sight of the wizard, before dropping prone again. Either way, as he heads toward the building he will taunt "Thanks for all the books...."
OOC: Let me know if Saros does receive the healing potion from Ghee before he headed for the manor (below), not that he has an action to down it this round, but just need to know whether he got it or not.
Digging in his pack, Ghee's fingers close around the smooth glass of a potion vial. Heading towards Saros, he hands it off to the gnome, then creeps around the fallen Kamadan to AK,16, dropping prone himself.
(OOC Assuming handing off the portion is an action.)
(@Shadow: With 50ft of movement, you can go as far as {AQ-12}.)
Ghee passes by Saros, kneels down for a second, and gently presses a healing potion vial (common) into the gnome's hands. The dwarf then keeps moving {AK-16}.
A bit far from where the fight has moved to, Bleepruns as fast as the wind {AV-24}.
Darrik sees the green grung running and does the same, (Though he is no SPEEDFROG!)
With a new potion in hand, Saros renews his insults aimed at the lord and dashes toward the manor's large double doors. With his free hand, he tries to first pull and then push the doors open, but they won't budge. They seem to be locked. Thinking fast, Saros then jumps to the ground, finding some cover behind a strangely twisted potted plant {AL-25}.
Infuriated at how daring this nearly-dead gnome is, Lord Weirding floats a bit lower and closer to the manor's door as to get a better view at Saros. He is now 50 feet from the ground {AI-23}. From there, he collects most of his depleting magic pool and launches several fiery rays at the taunting gnome! One of the rays is inadvertently aimed at Khan instead, who is standing nearby.
Saros' "drop behind cover" strategy pays of somewhat (+2 to AC from cover). Nonetheless, two fiery rays still find their way past the destroyed plant. On his back, the gnome throws up his last wisp of leveled magic to deflect one of the rays. He also throws in a smidgen of divination trickery for added protection (Portent Die used.) Saros narrowly escapes once again! (Reference.) (Saros takes 14 fire damage; DEATH saving throw fail: 1).
Khan is taken by surprise by the errant ray. (Khan takes 7 fire damage.)
Um, hopefully I get a say in the outcome of those attacks....
As the firy rays flash toward him, Saros would like to take a reaction to cast his final Shield (taking his AC to 19, 12 + 2 for cover +5 shield) and instinctively realises that even that spell wont be strong enough to stop one of the attacks, but predicts it (applies his last portent die to turn that attack roll into a 3) and somehow it does not strike home.
As the flames fizzle out, Saros looks up at the wizard again from his position behind the plant "Seriously, you have got to get better at this wizarding thing..."
OOC: That's it boys and girls...Saros cannae take any more of this......lets see what happens this round!!

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ang sees Savros resisting the constant attack of the creature and decides to get closer. "One the rays will get to him eventually"she thinks. From her hiding position she shoots a bolt to the distant mind-flayer then starts to run toward her companion (normal move to AV16) and hide in the closest bush.
Light Crossbow (adv due to hiding, disc due to distance ; 2 bolts left) = 24 , damage piercing 11 Hiding = 12
Khan croaks out in pain and curls up a little on herself much to personal shame after the fact. Yet as the floating monstrosities error became clear, she shoots Saros a brief look of burgeoning respect, before turning upon the nearby Manor wall. 'His sacrifice. Their sacrifices. Must not make in vain' She thought as she crouched down, only to moments spring onto the wall.
Then as only a Grung could she began to scale it quickly using mostly three limbs and as fast as possible. Along the way she has a thought of the supposed poisonous plants aligning parts of it; but, that thought is soon cast aside again as mere lies and distractions. Neither of which she could afford at the moment. Soon enough, she reaches the limit of her haste, and so either at a somewhat awkward angle to the untrained eye, bullet after ki charged bullet are loosed again on Wierdling following the biggest croak of a battle cry.
(@Ori: In order to be on the manor's wall, you'll need to go to {AM-15}.)
Running and hopping, Ang shoots another bolt and changes hiding spots. Although he is slower to do so this time around, Lord Weirding creates another magical shield to protect him from the incoming projectile.
Already up in the manor's walls, Khan tries to surprise the hovering enemy with a couple of missiles herself. The same magical shield continues to prevent a direct hit on the wizard.
Noticing Saros slightly isolated from the group, Ghee continues to crouch run around the box hedges to AP,19.
