illogic or someone else to roll, since illogic hasn't posted today?

then illogic or someone else to roll for this, with Gimli still suggesting the flaming ball in O11 unless Hteb prefers a different square. To maintain harmony among the party, Gimli hopes Hteb will not tell Gimli where he can put the flaming ball.

Yes, except that Sir K's healing modifier is +8.

Skill checks in general have a bonus of (A) 1/2 your level (B) any modifier from the relevant stat, (C) +5 if trained, and (D) certain races/classes have addtional stat bonuses.

Sir K is spending the standard action to activate CL Eric's second wind. This doesn't take an action from CL Eric. (It's not CL Eric's turn right now -- he can't take actions.) If CL Eric is conscious on his turn, he will get to take his full set of actions.

Boy, it sucks having your cleric go down.
Presumably irrelevant, but I believe CLERic if conscious would be after Duriel.
Oops. I pointed out an irrelevant part of the order, missed on that was slightly more relevant (but since attacking different targets, not important either).

Miss Take, who finished her turn in post 10180, is before Hteb, who took her turn in 10183 (I think those two were in the correct order at that time, but in any case Miss Take did go first.) Lloan follows Hteb.

Anyway, Miss Take should be free to go now.

Move to H4.
Minor action: Lay on hands upon Vonteras. Vonteras now has 8 hp.
Standard action: Attempt a DC 10 Heal check upon CL Eric to trigger his second wind.

Suggest that Vonteras and CL Eric make heal checks on Bing to help end his poison. Sir K will be doing likewise on his turn if Bing is still poisoned.

Edited to move to H4 instead of H5.
OK, 14+8? for the roll? So, CL Eric can do his second wind, right?

Miss Take is confused, and doesn't have time to pull out the PH.

I'm attacking whichever D is in front of me at the moment.

20+?? vs AC (don't guess it matters) with my dagger.
4+7+2 damage.

but clarification still needed, since I don't know where to find it in the PH. CL Eric's surge is 7. He was at -1. Is he now at -1+7=6, or 0+7=7?

Start at 0, so 7.
