***********Note**********
Essentially this is several fights going on at once. To properly show the action, I''ll be writing them in session, even though they are not urring that way. Rather than jumping back and forth, I feel this will make it easier to follow.

Ducky ordered Taro to attack the ck Fire Mage, the cloaked figure raised both hands, one smoked like it was burning while the other bathed in shadow.
Taro has cast [gue][Wither].
Combination Sessful.
The ck Fire mage screamed in terror, hundreds of boils formed on his skin, expanding and rupturing. His hands and limbs started to twist obscenely, slowly shriveling like a balloon rapidly losing air.

Vooni was in the middle of charging in, instead, she skidded to a stop and raised her shield.
/Alpha: Vooni: The boss is a Pestilence Mage.

Hueli has used [Charged Air] to evade.
The Air Elemental breathed a sigh of relief, banking into the corner she flew directly into a wall of silver mes. Screaming in agony, her entire body erupted in mes just as a powerful set of jaws snapped shut over her legs. The Air Elemental gave a pitiful wail as she was bitten in half and then spat out onto the tile.
Hueli has been in.
************
Ducky waited next to Taro, her blue eyes seemingly unconcerned. All the elementals were dead. "I wish I could keep him."
The group studied the ck-cloaked pestilence mage. There seemed to be something diabolical lingering in his dark aura. The vermin he had summoned scampered up his body, forming a rat cloak with hundreds of gleaming red eyes.
[Whisper: Vooni to Nix] Ducky is an Archon levelpanion?
[Whisper: Nix to Vooni] At least, she''s holding a boss by herself.
/Alpha: Nix: Why does everyone look nervous?
/Alpha: Vooni: Pestilence Mages are pretty rare, even very strong dragon spawn give them a wide berth. Everything they have is disease-oriented. They even have a defensive shield that infects you when you strike it.
/Alpha: Chiba: We can ovee him, but the odds are he''s going to take one or two of us.
/Alpha: Ducky: We need Morti.
/Alpha: Shae: Got a n? Shouldn''t we kill the rats first?
/Alpha: Ducky: The moment a rat is killed, he''ll aggro us, but they will have to be dealt with.
/Alpha: Nix: I got a n. This guy is easy. I''m gonna kick his ass sideways.
/Alpha: Vooni: Pardon?
/Alpha: Nix: I''m immune to pestilence.
/Alpha: Shae: No you''re not, Nix.
/Alpha: Chiba: Nope.
/Alpha: Rhy: That would be pretty rare.
/Alpha: Ducky: Of course he is.
Ducky smiled sweetly at Nix as if to offer him encouragement. She had no clue as to what his immunities were, just the blind faith of adoring spiritpanion.
Nix walked to the far side of the room and sat down. Heid out three Nether Rats on the tiles.
/Alpha: Chiba: Holy crap. Rats are immune to pestilence!
/Alpha: Nix: I need two volunteers to inhabit the other two. Anyone with range damage, line up on the far wall and get ready.
/Alpha: Vooni: Three Nether rats aren''t going to be able to kill this guy.
/Alpha: Nix: His rats... are gonna be my rats. I am the Rat-King.
/Alpha: Chiba: Your old title of Underwear King was better.
/Alpha: Nix: I know. Unfortunately, that''s been snatched away.
Nix waited while Vooni and Chiba sat down on either side of him.
/Alpha: Nix: You two will inhabit the puppets and wait in the middle. If this goes upside-down on me, I expect you to do the honorable thing.
/Alpha: Vooni: Fight to the death?
/Alpha: Nix: Sure.
Nix inhabited the Rat-King and moved away from the others.
/Alpha: Chiba: Now I remember, these bastards have a self-destruct!
/Alpha: Nix: Yep. I''m going to self-destruct if the fight goes bad. You two will rush in and do the same.
/Alpha: Vooni: Understood.
Rat-Nix gave them an innocent yellow-eyed stare.
/Alpha: Chiba: Don''t say it, Apprentice!
/Alpha: Vooni: Keep that thought to yourself, Nix!
/Alpha: Nix: Fine.
Rat-Nix scurried closer to Taro, stopping for a moment, he turned his yellow-eyed gaze on the rest of his group. "What could possibly go wrong?"
/Alpha: Chiba: Damn it. He said it.
/Alpha: Vooni: We''re doomed.
