It's a surprise round, so just fire away with One Round's Worth Of Actions, everybody. Initiative will be rolled Saturday Night after 10 PM Eastern.

(I'm guessing this will happen when initiative is sorted.)

The dwarf sighs and closes his eyes, clearing his mind and allowing the Raven Queen's power to channel through him. Meran takes a halfstep forward, tapping the stone floor with his staff and producing a loud cracking noise while whipping his left arm forward and invoking his Hand of Radiance. Razor sharp tendrils of ice shoot out from the dwarf's fingertips, zipping past Beatrice and toward three of the basilisks.

Hand of Radiance Vs 3x Basilisk Will REFLEX WHOOPS
1d20 +17
vs Basilisk (2): 15 + 17 = 32 (Hit)
vs Basilisk (3): 9 + 17 = 26 (Hit)
vs Basilisk (4): 17 + 17 = 34 (Hit)

Hand of Radiance Damage
1d4 +9
vs Basilisk (2): 2 + 9 = 11 radiant
vs Basilisk (3): 3 + 9 = 12 radiant
vs Basilisk (4): 2 + 9 = 11 radiant

A couple of things of note about Meran: Friendly Fire is a real issue. Invokers use a lot (see: practically nothing but) blast powers and not all of them are vs enemy, so I will try to keep my distance from the group most of the time.

A wind carries down the sewage tunnels.  It smells not of feces, but of fresh steel.  Swaying, Gulden appears carried by it and whatever other flowery simile you would like used for him essentially jumping the canal to deliver the Steel Wind, a blast of force like that of a storm of swords into two of the basilisks (Basilii?).
Attacks
1: 14 + 19 = 33
2: 1 + 19 = 20 (Critical miss still a thing?)
While one dodges the slashing force, the other is butchered over the space of 10' for 16 damage, blood stains the bricks, probably enhancing the hygenics of the place.

"Hey, I said wait for my signal!" said Bertram, leaping [Athletics: 1d20+19=36] easily across the chasm and chopping the nearest basilisk in half. [Longstrike Slayer Rage: 1d20+19=39, critical hit for 24 damage, killing it! Bertram gains 20 temporary HP, and enters the Longstrike Slayer rage.]

[Unfortunately, not close enough to use Rampage in response to the critical hit. Longstrike Slayer Rage grants a +4 bonus to power when using melee and close attacks against enemies 2 or more squares away. Additionally, if he starts his turn with an adjacent enemy, he must attack it or be stunned.]

Latir moves into a frontline position against the three grouped basilisks and raises his shield, taking a Total Defense against whatever may come next.

I went ahead and removed Basilisk 2 from the order and dropped its HP in the tally to 0, since Bertram so thoroughly mauled it.

(Oh hurr, I was going with the standard 'surprise round = 1 action' rule. If we're doing a full set, I'll go ahead and move Meran up.)

Seeing the others spring into action, Meran quickly brushes past Beatrice and steps out onto the water's surface near one of the large pillars, hoping to remain out of sight from the creatures up ahead.

All PCs are up until the end of Thursday Night! NPCs + Basilisks go then!

You're not... KILLING THEM... are you? Please indicate whether you Kill or KO when you reduce something to 0 HP, and please decide what Beatrice does for her kill this round.

Beatrice: "This is more like it!" She draws her sword and rushes the other basilisk down in a brutal Charge. She delivers a solid cleaving along it's upper back and down some of it's legs, dealing 14 damage and Bloodying it! She also blows a Minor and shifts into Rain of Steel stance, which will last the rest of the encounter and be handled on her turn by me.

Speaking of which, the Basilisk will start it turn next to Beatrice and trigger it, so she immediately draws her great-sword up in the waiting Rain of Steel stance and then delivers the fatal follow-through, grinning as blood splatters everywhere. Wanda covers her mouth as she moves up one square and gestures across the pond at one of the basilisks in the back to Command it to "Please stand down for, ah... eco-science." Wanda's motherly tone seems to connect with the beast as it's legs drop out from under it and it's eyes blink dumbly as it is knocked prone and dazed.

Wanda finds this to be quite adequate and ends her turn, which leads to... Basilisk Round!

Big Boss: Yoshi's Island Music

Something bobs up out of the pool in front of you. Then a matching something a few feet apart from it. Both move in tandem as they revolve... they look like giant eyes. The water beneath them is rippling...

Boss Bas erupts out of the center of the lake with his circumstantial Stealth bonus that beat even Gulden's honed senses and unleashes a Petrifying Gaze from his red-scaled eyes, a shocking white cone of light sweeping over the fools before him! Latir is Slowed! Gulden is Slowed! Beatrice is Slowed! SAVE ENDS! Slow is -2 Movement Squares.

The giant stark white Basilisk's arrival also forces Beatrice and Latir back a square, although Latir can uhm, attempt a strength check to try and be a Dwarf about it with the huge fellow. Beatrice obliges the arrival of Boss Bas with a Rain of Steel swipe as she is forced back! A hit for 15 damage!

Gulden can perceive that there are three larger basilisks shifting in the water nearby, allowing the rest of you be aware of where they are and where they will "Ambush." The closest one forgoes waiting for Meran and surges towards him, rushing out of the water for a savage biting! It seizes his leg and crunches down HARD for 12 Damage! These fellows look leaner and meaner, although bigger than the first five you've seen! Basilisk 6 has established a Grab on Meran! He's immobilized until he escapes... (Acrobatics vs Reflex or Athletics vs Fortitude of the Basilisk!)

Basilisk 4 wastes it's Dazed and Prone turn picking itself back up. 3 and 5 waddle around the sides of the pool.

Stand Your Ground doesn't normally call for a Strength check. You just move one panel less than usual when shoved around. I won't roll anyway, because it doesn't matter this turn; Latir moves behind Gulden and Beatrice in order to impart his Just Spirit upon them (it's a passive ability). If you guys end your turn next to Latir, you may roll any one saving throw twice to shake off any nasty effects!

"Creature!" Latir shouts in a Divine Challenge, brandishing his holy symbol, "Harm my friends no more! You will have to reach them through me, On Pain Of Death!"

On Pain of Death damage
3d8 +4
3 + 8 + 1 + 4 = 16
Once per round, whenever Boss Bas attacks, it takes a further 1d8 damage. A save ends this effect!

Lastly, Latir shakes off the slowing effect. Uh, I think. 11 is enough on a saving throw to end an effect, right? It's >10 success, <=10 fail?

Also: the map key below lists Bertram as also being Slowed, but the descriptive text didn't indicate this was the case. Is he Slowed or not?

I made up something fun because if you stood your ground you'd literally be under him or occupying the same squares. Or you know, a 2,000 lb lizard would bounce off a Dwarf because the Dwarf felt stubborn... which... is so stupid it's brilliant. Completely Dwarfy.

Yeah anything 10 or higher wins a Save.

Also yeah Betram isn't slowed, fixed it in your post. Ahhh the confusion was caused by Latir's stats not being added until your post, so naturally my reptile brain defaulted to the next tanky.

Edit: :V :V :V I forgot that you guys were using a Surprise Round uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh man I'm not retyping that last post sorry guys get to fighting. I'll give you a break later somehow I guess!

Meran grimaces in pain from the creature's vice-like bite, realizing he cannot shake the creature free. Meran closes his eyes for a moment, trying to focus. There is a sudden chill surrounding the dwarf and he opens his eyes, staring directly at the beast latched onto his leg.

"Your time will come. You cannot fight inevitability," the dwarf states, bowing his head and beginning to murmur the Fourfold Invocation of Doom under his breath. There is a split second where the room is completely devoid of any other noise as the power takes hold of most of the creatures in the room.

Fourfold Invocation of Doom vs Lizardjerks (3, 4, 6, 7 & Boss)
1d20 +17
3: 17 + 17 = 34 (Hit)
4: 12 + 17 = 29 (Hit)
6: 20 + 17 = 37 (Critical Hit (which does nothing))
7: 9 + 17 = 26 (Hit)
Boss: 10 + 17 = 27 (Hit)

The targeted basilisks are all dazed (save ends), granting combat advantage to the party. In addition, the invocation's effect causes each of these creatures to suffer a -2 to their next attack roll. Meran will now deal 5 psychic damage to any creature who attacks him, regardless of whether they hit or miss.

Meran shakes himself free of the dazed basilisks grasp and takes a number of steps back toward the main group, wincing a little and chaining together grumbled profanities with each step.

Don't forget to tell me if you guys killed the last two basilisks or KO'd them, or if you kill or KO going forward.

Also you can ask Wanda for heals, just remember it's 2 per encounter for the Minor direct heals.

Shaking his head with increasing speed, Gulden's Purifying Meditation shakes off the not-fast.  Retreating over the K.O.ed basilisk formerly known as 1 with the simple defensive steps of Five Storms, he twists his body, further twisting to the point where one thinks the spine would just pack it's bags and hand in it's resignation, until he explodes with spinning force, releasing the Masterful Spiral against the giant basilisk.
14 + 19 = 33 Hit!
The tornado of force pierces the beast's thick hide, leaving great and terrible bruises behind wherever it struck (15 Damage).  With an exhalation of breath, Gulden stands in the Spiral stance (increasing his reach by 1), allowing him to strike his foes with Flurry of Blows (BB and 1 take 9 damage.), shifting his foes positions, outright pulling a hunter from its waiting ambush, and outright putting himself somewhat hidden from their senses (CA on BB and 1).

(Although it was a mistake to do so, Bertram killed that first basilisk. Going forward, he'll be more discreet, however.)

"Try it on someone your own size, you overgrown snake!" Bertram shouted. He tightened his grip on his weapon and hacked away with the blunt end. (Blood Sacrifice - Bertram deals 1d10=8 damage to himself. 1d20+19=33, a hit! Boss Bas takes 2d10+26 =42 damage.)

He then backed away from it to get a better angle on the incoming basilisks (walk to the specified location).

Blah Blah Thursday Night

Boss Bas shuffles and truffles from side to side and unleashes another baleful Petrifying Glare against Meran, Latir and Beatrice, but only Slows Latir again. Beatrice attempts to strike him with a Rain of Steel, but misses, and then opts to cleave his jaw apart with a Sudden Surge, dealing 16 damage and moving two square after the strike. This knocks him to 7 HP... he takes 5 psychic back-lash for striking Meran... and his final 2 damage from a divine challenge. Boss Bas blacks out and slumps forward with a loud gurgling.

Beatrice makes a successful Athletics check to jump across the water and land in front of Wanda. Wanda gestures upon Basilisk 3 and unleashes a radiant beam of Searing Light, which narrowly misses it and harmlessly refracts upon the water's surface. Basilisk 6 surges through the water and comes up beside Wanda, waiting a turn as it is dazed.

Basilisks 1, 2 and 5 focus their gaze upon Gulden, Latir and Bertram, their eyes radiating searing green mist before carpet-bombing them in a venomous shrouds. Bertram is unaffected, but Gulden and Latir are struck with 7 and 3 Poison Damage respectively, and Ongoing Poison Damage 5(Save Ends). You also deal 2 poison damage to creatures to start adjacent to on your turns.

The green mist begins to rise out of your eye sockets, Gulden and Latir!

'Lisks 4 and 6 save against being Dazed. Beatrice saves against her Slowed.

The dwarf chuckles appreciatively as the giant basilisk collapses, then turns his gaze back toward the little bugger that had bit him earlier. "Oi, you! Get the hell away from them, you wee little bastard!"

Meran grits his teeth, invoking Knives of the Soul. He gives a slight gasp of pain as two blades of ice burst out from his torso and make a beeline for two of the basilisks near him.

Knives of the Soul vs Basilisks reflex!
1d20 +17
1: 1 + 17 = 18
2: 3 + 17 = 20

Knives damage
2d10 +9
5 + 10 + 9 = 24

One of them spears Basilisk number 6, dealing 24 force damage and sending him skidding 3 spaces away, while the second one glances off the floor near number 7 and misses completely. Meran takes 5 damage.

Boss Bas was slain (can this stuff even KO?) by On Pain of Death, not Divine Challenge. By including Latir in his gaze attack he met the requirement for Divine Challenge.

Wanda, Meran, Beatrice, and Bertram seem to have that side of the field well under control, so Latir (slowly) paces over to Basilisk #1. "You are next" isn't much of a Divine Challenge but he's feeling pretty lousy at the moment. Latir swings his warhammer in an Enfeebling Strike, but swings wide.

Dwarven racial ability Cast-Iron Stomach gives +5 to saves vs. poison.
Saving throw vs. Poison!
Save vs. Poison
1d20 +5
3 + 5 = 8
ulch, Latir takes 5 poison damage and Gulden takes 2 poison damage and I doubt the basilisk is all that vulnerable to its own gaze attack but hey maybe it takes 2 poison damage too. (Latir and Gulden's HP is changed in the chart below, the basilisk's isn't.)

Saving throw vs. Slow!
Save vs. Slow!
1d20
8
Grrrk I thought dwarves were supposed to be hardy and tough
