The adult is jolted by the shocking magic but stays on its feet to keep up the fight. The younger one on the other hand is nearly brought low by the larger blast of lightning, barely staying on it's feet.

Whoops - It was a long shot, though (16% odds...not the wisest move I could have made.)  You might want to delay, in case anyone else has an idea...

Unfortunately with the Delay action the start of your turn is still resolved when you choose to delay which means ongoing damage is resolved then as well. You can't delay that.

With the posion running through his veins Atanos begins to feel light headed in a last attempt to warn his allies he utters I....I...and then black

Kruthik Ambush Round 7 Results!

The adult creature continues its volley of bony protrusions, spraying them at Soff'a and Dunor but there is little force behind them and they are deflected by magic and armor alike.

Dunor whips his hammer at the remaining adjacent kruthik, though the protracted battle seems to be running the warrior out of steam.

The remaining young Kruthik continues to rend away with it's bony claws at Dunor.

The halfling, now splattered with blood both his own and others, let's loose another bolt of lightning. The force of the blast briefly scorch the monster flinging toxic spikes as the majority of the force arcs and hits the other creature.

Patches of ground are weaker in this area. To identify the patches roll a Perception (minor action) or Dungeoneering (minor action) to attempt to spot the cracks or identify where the ground is weakest and could give way respectively.

Entering a squared of Weakened Ground may cause you to fall in. Roll a Save. 9 or less and you fall 10 feet for 1d10 damage. To climb out again it takes a Athletics check DC =15.

[Melblen_Cairn]

The adult wades in with claws and bony plates gnashing away. Most of this directed toward Søffå.

Dunor moves in behind the remaining Kruthik, then slams his hammer down on the creature, bringing the weight of the earth down on it!

{Move} Move to Z17
{Standard} Crippling Crush on Kruthik

1d20(9)+8=17

1d10(3)+4+3=10 damage and the creature is slowed.
Combat advantage and bonus damage from slowing the target already factored in.

Seeing only one monster remain, Teo concentrates and takes a sweeping step, a crackling sound of thunder hitting the beast as his foot makes contact with the ground.

Storm Walk the Kruthik, minimum damage. That's 9. I love having high fixed damage.
Shift 1 square down.

Fzzzzzzzzappp!
The jolt send the creature up into the air and slams it back to the ground, but it still maintains its footing, twitching but keeping up it's thrashing fight. 

[Sk4mpE]

Søffå stands over his fallen brethren and unleashes a thunderous strike against the foe:  "Die!"

BOOM!
The shock of the assault is more than the remaining Kruthik can handle and it collapses to the ground in defeat.

Kruthik Ambush Ends!

You would have had this round and two more rounds of ongoing damage before death. So please give me 3 saving throw rolls against the on-going damage. Also give me three death saves to begin with. You'll probably have some more rolls after depending on what the group does to try to keep you alive.

(click to show/hide)

If you have the heal skill give me three first aid rolls if you want to try to save your Cleric, this will give him additional  saves against the ongoing damage.  He has basically 3 rounds worth of ongoing damage before he is dead.

[Sk4mpE]

Søffå turns and brings water to Atanos, washing his wounds and using some loose cloth to remove what poison he can.  "Hang on!"

(click to show/hide)

We have to stop the damage before we can stabilize him, so....

Heal - First Aid - Saving Throw Assistance for Atanos: DC 15 Heal (+2 bonus to ally's saving throw) - Rolls 1, 2, 3
Roll 1:  1d20 → [12] = (12)
Roll 2:  1d20 → [17] = (17)
Roll 3:  1d20 → [10] = (10)

Atanos, take a +2 on your second saving throw against poison.

[Atanos]

I saved vs poison ongoing but death still a failure

Atanos' sickly pallor begins to fade but he still remains unconscious.

You have saved against the poison. Since you have saved on the second roll you are at -11 hitpoints (one from death). You are now two steps down to death. Don't roll another until someone tries heal skill on you again to stabilize.

[Sk4mpE]

Relieved to see the smallest improvement, an exasperated Søffå tries in vain to pull his friend out from the abyss.

Heal - First Aid - Stabilize the Dying Atanos (DC15):  1d20 → [3] = (3)     

It is down to someone else to stabilize our cleric.  Three (conscious) companions = Three more tries + Atanos' final roll - Good Luck!  I was awake so I gave it a shot, but it looks like Søffå doesn't have it in him...

Søffå removes the bedroll from his pack to warm Atanos - Frustrated by his inability to find any salve, he steps back to let another try.

[Nanshork]

Dalanath has seen too many people die lately, he moves to help Søffå try and staunch Atanos' bleeding.

Theo rush over to the fallen Cleric, doing his best to save him, but he halts in the middle of it, not trusting that he's not making it worse.
