Lola resists the poison and 5' steps to 2319
Image

She swings - her primary target is A3, but if thats already knocked down, she swings at A4, or if no other targets then the doppleganger
Image
if A3 still up, she likely has flanking so 17+2 to hit, else 17 to hit A4
If hits, damage 6

Tex will try to bring down the spider at A3 if it is still standing, otherwise he'll shoot at the most wounded of the others...

ROUND 2 CONTINUES

Ardrea cackles to extend the duration of her protective hex on Cyrius. She commands the feather token whip to attack the despicable doppelganger. The whip flies out and careens into the creature [7 hp nonlethal and the doppelganger is grappled]

Resisting the venom, Cyrius empowers his mind blade with psychic energy and thrusts again at Spider A3. Finishing with a flair of rapid blows, he leaves the creature filled with holes and very dead [15 hp damage]

Worrel floats south, then dismisses the gaseous form potion.

Prost tumbles south, dropping his sling staff on the way and drawing his sword. He is just acrobatic enough to avoid any response from the spider, but he misses the subsequent attack. He does manage to eliminate a mirror image, though.

With A3 down, Tex shoots at A4. All three shots miss, although one arrow flies through a mirror image and causes it to disappear.

Fluffy misses A2.

Lola resists the poison and steps to give Tex a clearer shot at A4. She swings at the spider, but only manages to dismiss a mirror image.

ROUND 3 BEGINS

Spider A1 bites at Cyrius, but misses.

Spider A2 steps back out of reach of Cyrius and Fluffy and casts a spell creating 4 mirror images of itself.

Spider A4 steps into a flanking position with Cyrius, but misses with its bite.

The doppelganger struggles just enough to get free of the grappling whip, but passes out unconscious from the effort.

ACTIVE EFFECTS
Feather Token Whip: +10 BAB, 1d6+1 nonlethal, free grapple attack (with a +15 bonus on its combat maneuver checks) if it hits; 47.6 minutes remaining

Protective Luck (Cyrius): Attacks must roll twice and use the worse result (ends on Ardrea's turn in Round 3)

ROUND 3 CONTINUES

6. Ardrea - staff readied, fly 1 minute used

7. Cyrius - holding a rope tied around doppelganger, uncharged mind blade rapier readied, 30 hp damage, 3 STR damage

8. Worrel - 17 arrows left, 1 lay on hands left, wand of CLW 20 charges left

9. Prost - masterwork short sword readied, slingstaff dropped at 1920, 37 bullets left, 18 bullets +1 left, 26 hp damage

10. Tex - bow readied, 75 arrows left, 9 hp damage

11. Fluffy

12. Lola - short sword readied, loaded crossbow dropped at 2217, 30 bolts left, 1 channel energy left, 3 hp damage

ROUND 4 BEGINS

13. Bloated Spider A1 - 3 mirror images

14. Bloated Spider A2 - 4 mirror images, 10 hp damage

15. Bloated Spider A3 - 49 hp damage, dead

Mirror Images on A4... should my and Tex's attacks last round if just close failures to hit, then have popped some its mirror images?

Cyrius likewise attacks Spider A1 to take advantage of the flanking position, charging his mind blade rapier with psychic energy and thrusting at the foe with a cry of Athena guide my hand!.

That was fast!

 

ROUND 3 CONTINUES

Ardrea seeing the doppleganger drop redirects the feather token whip to attack spider A1. She cackles again to maintain the protective hex on Cyrius. The whip cracks out and hits a mirror image [2 remaining]

Cyrius attacks Spider A1 to take advantage of the flanking position, charging his mind blade rapier with psychic energy and thrusting at the foe with a cry of Athena guide my hand!. Athena helps Cyrius find the real foe among the images, startling the creature with his unexpectedly accurate lunge [8 hp damage]

Worrel moves along the wall to where he can attack the spider (A4). Once in position, he attacks with full force. His attack is accurate, but finds only an image b][3 remaining][/b]

Prost attacks spider A1 from his flanking position with Cyrius. With a twisting maneuver, he rolls his strike around all the false images and past the actual creature's defenses [15 hp damage, plus 3 bleed]

Tex targets spider A4. The two arrows from his first (many)shot are close enough to banish the remaining mirror images. His second shot misses horribly. His final shot slips silently into the spider, opening a painful-looking fissure [4 hp damage]

Fluffy bites one of A1's remaining images, causing it to disappear [1 remaining]

Lola swings again at A4, but critically fails.

ROUND 4 BEGINS

Spider A1 bleeds [3 hp damage] while it chitters something at its allies in an unfamiliar language. It steps away from Fluffy and Cyrius and casts a spell defensively. It disappears from view.
Spellcraft DC17 to see spoilerShow
The spell was invisibility
Spider A2 waits a moment...

Spider A4 steps up next to Ardrea and Tex. It bites at Ardrea, but misses.

Spider A2 steps up into a flanking position on Cyrius. This move doesn't help, it still misses.

The doppelganger remains unconscious.

ACTIVE EFFECTS
Feather Token Whip: +10 BAB, 1d6+1 nonlethal, free grapple attack (with a +15 bonus on its combat maneuver checks) if it hits; 47.5 minutes remaining, targeting A1

If Tex steps back one to the other room, can he see through the mirror (assuming not, but just checking all options.)

Worrel steps forward so that he can attack the spider threatening Cyrius. He has spent no time learning anything about magic and simply assumes that the spider has simply become invisible. He remains alert, however.

Once in place, he attacks the spider next to Cyrius. His aim is off, however.

Did you use the flanking bonus? :thumb1:
OUT OF CHARACTER
Nope ... forgot to include Flanking. So first attack would have hit AC 16.

And, worse, I linked the 1st attack twice. Actual rolz for 2nd attack is below, and would have hit AC 20 with flanking.

Ardrea thanks her patron and cackles in the face of the spider to extend her protective hex. With spider A1 having disappeared suddenly, she re-directs the whip to spider A4.

Cyrius thrusts twice at Spider A2 to take advantage of the flank offered by Worrell, hoping to at least dispel a mirror image or two.
