Sythm opens his eyes to see Chan above him. "Thanks, I guess." As he stands up, he looks at the place where his wounds should be. "So strange. I almost died a moment ago, but now I'm good as new. Anyone else feels like challenging the big boss?"
Chan hands everyone five gold as he stands taller now, feeling like he’d have a full night’s sleep though nothing had changed. He then says, “Yes, now is a good time to challenge the Star door.”
Gogon just grinned as he accepted the coins, feeling better than he had in a while now. He'd actually enjoyed that fight. He also ruminated over a few other tactical thoughts before realizing the others were discussing the door choice.
"Sure," he said. "I'm all-in on tackling the boss!"

Entering the next room, the first thing you notice is the blistering heat. There seem to be three areas of concentrated heat around the room, but the entire room is extremely hot. Near the back of the room, there are two fire elementals swirling in the heat and they begin to approach you as you enter through the door.
(You may reposition up to 10 feet from the door for free)
(At the end of each of your turns for this fight, please roll a Con Saving throw)
Initiative:
Fire Elemental 1: 21 Fire Elemental 2: 11 Yuno: 20 Chan: 8 Gogon: 22 Sythm: 8
The two elementals swarm forward and surround you from two sides as they proceed to enter your spaces and burn you. Furthermore, they reach out and both attempt to touch each of you with flaming tendrils as you are inside them.

Yuno (queued)
Yuno moves behind (O29) the elemental and attempts to take it out fast. While her skin burns she bats pieces of the flame elemental out with her Flame rapier like how you would stomp small fires out. BAT BAT BAT. She makes three swings against the elementals.
Flame Rapier (Magical so not resisted): 13 Dmg: 9 + 2 Pierce + 10 Fire BA Rapier: 27 Dmg: 5 + 4 Pierce

The halfling could only grit his teeth as the heat and flames were already beginning to take their toll. "We gotta be quick about this," he thought; and with the thought, his eyes flashed blue as he carefully maneuvered past his teammate and away from the elemental.
Finally at a safer distance, the monk turned, letting fly a dart he'd unsheathed as he'd moved. As it sailed toward the living flame, Gogon inhaled, then again breathed out a stream of cold at the creature, barely angling it to miss both Yuno and Chan.

"It burns! Not cool!" Sythm calls as he leaps away from the fire elementals, running away into the room. Then, he shoots a bolt at the farther elemental, calling upon his ghostly friends to attack the other one. It's been some time since they had something to do.

Dex Save: 7
Sythm's bolt catches the elemental perfectly as the bolt seems to pierce through the flames and damage the inherent magic of the creature. Meanwhile Gogon backs up and hurls a dart at it which seems to be only partially effective as the non-magical weapon incinerates on contact with the elemental. However, the elemental is not able to move out of the way from the follow up attack, a freezing blast of cold that shoots out of his mouth and although it does not hit either Yuno or Chan, the cool air that it creates is refreshing. The blast catches the elemental and weakens it further.

Chan quickly backs up and fires a glowing projectile towards the elemental although the flames continue to lick up his skin and burn him. Yuno, meanwhile, is still smoldering as she takes her rapiers to the creature trying to put it out like one would a rampant flame. Her first strike swings wide, but her second and third strikes both connect and they both seem to connect just as hard. However, the flames on her third attack harmlessly burn and don't appear to be affecting the elemental. As your strikes hit it, the flames lick back out towards you and attempt to burn you. As the flames lick up, you can see that the fire elemental is starting to look a bit diminished and its flames appear to be flickering slightly.
Flaming Body (Against Yuno - 2 Attacks Worth): 14
As you have all taken your turns, you begin to feel an exhaustion overcome you and your muscles begin to ache. You all are able to push off the exhaustion relatively easily except for Sythm who feels his muscles become extraordinarily achey. However, you all also sense that as you spend longer and longer in this room, the heat will become more and more unbearable.
Sythm takes 1 level of exhaustion.
The fire elemental then reaches out to touch Yuno twice with its flaming fingers, while the (mostly) unharmed elemental pursues Sythm and attempts to touch the archer with the same attacks.

(( Queuing ))
Seeing his attacks do some damage, Gogon ignored the flames licking him as he retrieved another dart and repeated his actions. The projectile flew toward its target, followed by another blast of cold.
ACTION: Again Attack the nearest elemental Dart Throw - Attack: 27, Non-Magical Piercing Damage:11 Breath of the Dragon - blowing a Line of Cold:DC 14 DEX save, 8 damage on failure, or 4 on success
Sythm places himself in a defensive stance ready to quickly dodge out of the way of any of the elemental's attacks while also drawing upon some of his reserves to replenish his energy.
Dex Save: 8
As Gogon continues his assault, the elemental once again finds itself unable to dodge out of the way of any of the monk's attacks as the blast of cold energy slams into the creature paired with a dart that, like before, incinerates partially on contact. Meanwhile Chan steps back to the wall and fires two bolts towards the elemental both of which bore large holes through it and leave it flickering. The second one, sets its entire body alight, and Yuno lunges forward guided by the light to place a devastating blow with her flaming rapier. While the flames lick back up at her skin, and the flames on the rapier do not appear to affect the elemental, the magical nature of the rapier punctures the essence of the elemental and sends it scattering into a number of wisps that quickly dissipate.
Flaming Body (Against Yuno - 1 Attack): 6
The remaining elemental burns furiously and then attacks the wood-elf twice.
Only the second attack hits Sythm, and the rogue is still standing, barely.
Everyone is taking 4 Points of Fire Damage at the start of their turns.
However, still not having doused himself, Sythm collapses to the ground, his clothing still on fire as the flames lick up his skin.
Death Save (Sythm): 19
Con Save (Sythm): 19
You all also feel the exhaustion creeping up on you as you get more and more tired. The heat is becoming unbearable.
Sythm takes another level of exhaustion (2) and this time, Gogon and Chan also take 1 level of exhaustion. Yuno, somehow manages to resist the heat yet again and holds steady.
Gogon is up next! (Although the party may queue their turns!)
Yuno moves up to T28. With one of the elementals finally down, it should put a bit less pressure on her and her party. Even in this heat, she seems to be full of fighting spirit as she starts batting away at the elemental just like she did with the last one.
Seeing the first elemental fade, Gogon silently thanked the gods, then ran toward the second one before quickly dropping (almost diving!) to the ground. He rolled back and forth, determined to put out the flames continuing to eat at him.
Sythm opens his eyes to see Chan above him. "Thanks, I guess." As he stands up, he looks at the place where his wounds should be. "So strange. I almost died a moment ago, but now I'm good as new. Anyone else feels like challenging the big boss?"

As Sythm feels injured and exhausted, he decides to be more careful. He focuses on dodging any incoming attacks while trying to refresh himself.
