"Erris! Corrath! Hit 'em from behind!" he tells his companions, hoping to gain an advantage in combat over the creature.

As the creature unleashes all its attacks upon Tek, the dwarf deftly bats them all aside, save one. "Hit me, will ye!" Tek bellows as he swings his axe again at the creature.

Tek, did you do something to up your AC? On your character sheet, you have AC 24, so three of those attacks hit - Claw 2, Talon 1, and Talon 2.

Tek's ax hits the monsters other leg, but it again seems to shake off much of the damage. Miz's targeting adjustment worked this time, as the creature cannot dodge out of the way. More than feathers singe this time! The distant tree catches fire.

The bird gives a cry of anger and disappears.

[Lazlow]

Seeing that Crotha already has his swords drawn and is closing, Erris circles around behind the creature while reloading her crossbow, keeping an eye out for the tree, trying to see if the squirrel runs away.

This is where Erris moves to:

T = Tek
E = Erris
C = Corrath

               T

Also, does anyone know where i can find stats for a squirell? Right now, I'm using Weasel.

I'd say take a rat, make it weaker and give it better climbing (faster climb speed)

Crotha

As Tek asked, Crotha will move to behind the huge bird thing and try and slice it to bits. Dual Strike for two attacks as a standard.

Yes, I did, back here:

+3 to AC and +3 to saves from Procog Defense

So with a 27 AC, only 1 of those things hit, for 7 points.

Did my Enervation hit? It was cast before Tek's and Miz's latest attacks, but after the monster's last action, due to my place in initiative. So, it should've happened before the bird had a chance to disappear, since Tek's new attack did. I believe I more than made a touch attack, too.

Yes, it did. Everything relating to the creature from this round has taken the spell into effect.

Okay. It just didn't really get mentioned in the round summary and it wasn't on the list, so I thought it might've gotten left out. Sorry to waste your time.
This round: Casting Invisibility

As soon as the creature abruptley disappears, Khas curses something that is undoubtedly quite foul in Mulhoradi, and figuring that "two can play at the game," does so, himself.

You aren't wasting my time. If it seems I forgot something, it's possible I did. In this case, I took the Enervation into account, but forgot to include it in the post.

Spot check to find the squirrel (if necessary) (1d20+5)[23]

If I see it I manifest an Energy Ball (cold type) on it. If i don't I manifest it between the tree i set on fire before and the closest other tree (I suppose its INT 20 should tell Miz that a squirrel has good reflexes and will try to flee from a tree that's been set on fire):

Tek growls low in his throat.

"I don't think it be gone and done so easily." he says, his eyes scanning around him. "Keep yer eyes open."

He pauses a moment, then ***** his right eyebrow high. "An what are ye' doin to the poor forest folk?" he asks as the two go chasing off after a squirrel.

"It's invisible or it's gone," the similarly invisible Khas explains. "The bard is now a rodent, not that there is much difference," he jokes. "Focus on it until the creature returns. If it's not visible or present by the time we kill the squirrel, we may all rest in my rope trick to prevent its untimely return and to prevent ourselves sleep deprivation."

Saying this, Khas moves to the location of his squirrel-hunting comrades, and if no-one finds the creature, he calls out to it. "You can't hide forever, little squirrel. Come out here and talk to us. You can't speak, but you can carve messages in the ground with your paws. If you can write in common or the tongue of those demons you seem to serve, I will be able to read it."
Still speaking loudly, but not addressing the creature any more, he says to Crotha, "'Controlled burns' can be helpful for a forrest, right? If the bard does not show herself, Miz should fertilize a little soil, I believe."
At once, Khas both explains to the squirrel, hopefully, that he's willing to burning it to death by igniting trees faster than it can move, and gives what he thinks to be a good reason why Crotha shouldn't worry about harming a few of the trees.

[Kesnit]

Neither the bard-squirel nor the vrock are doing anything that any of you notice.

[TheMeanDM]

Tek hefts his axe.

"What do ye'all think? Move up the road and camp, away from here...or keep watches here?"

[Lazlow]

"Well, Tek, that probably depends on how long we have 'til that squirrel spell wears off. Khas?"

Erris looks around to see if she can recover any of her spent bolts.

[Threeshades]

"Clearly that squirrel couldn't stand before the might of Miz." Miz scratches its chin thinking "But there is a power I now regret not spending further study on.", "He looks back at the group. Before I burn up what energy I have left for today I say we move on. We have more important things to care about than a squirrelwoman who summons giant birds."
