[Elemental Stats: AC: 17+2 = 19; Attack: +7; Damage: 2d6+1 (Slam) ] 

Movement: Speed reduced by half and you can't charge or run.  5' steps are still allowed.

The bug latches the tiny hooks on the ends of its legs onto Betimi's armor and starts sucking her blood.  [-1 constitution; Loses -6 hit points off maximum]

Crozar commands the elemental to move and he moves to set up a flank.  The large Cactacae raises his Great Cleaver over his head and brings it down hard on the Louse that's getting ready to leap on Tegab.  The huge blade slices deep into the critter with a loud crunch of shattering chitin.  [18 damage!  Ouch!  And without the flank you would have missed.  So good choice.   ]

The element attacks at the same time.  A whip solid photons lashes out at the bug...

Attack: [1d20+9]=5+9=14, Damage: [2d6+1]=8+1=9; MISSES!!  By 1 point. 

The critters natural armor repels the elemental's attack.

The strange fire elemental turns its attention toward the bug Crozar is fighting.  Eyeball covered tentacles of flame lash out its face at Lice3...

Attack: [1d20+6]=17+6=23, Damage: [1d6+1]=1+1=2, Fire: [1d6]=6; HIT!!; 2 slam + 6 Fire = 8 damage!
Reflex save: [1d20+2]=17+2=19; Succeeded...

The tentacles slam the creature but fails to set the creature on fire!

Suddenly, a split second later, Elphaba appears beside Tomeal, startling the Paladin.  She's pointing her old crooked finger in Crozar's direction and cries out an incantation...

LIGHTNING BOLT!  (44 damage)

• Lice3: Reflex save: [1d20+2]=18+2=20; Succeeded; 22 damage; sigh
  
• Lice4: Reflex save: [1d20+2]=8+2=10; Failed; 44 damage; Exploded!
  
• Swarm2: Reflex save: [1d20+6]=18+6=24; Succeeded; 22 damage; Fried!
  

As the bolt of lightning slices through the swarm and the 2 medium Lice everyone hears the critters shriek and chitter from pain.  The Louse fighting Crozar manages to dodge part of the blast but its chitin still crackles and snaps as the electricity passes through its body.   Lice4 that's well fed off Tomeal is bloated with blood and not as quick as the other.  Lighting surges through its body, causing the blood in its tummy to flash boil.  The Critter seizures in pain then with a 'POP!' it to erupt in a shower of blood!  The swarm2 instinctually attempts to spread out to avoid the suddenly shock with some success but the throngs of tiny insects rolling over one another just conduct the electricity throughout the swarm causing them all to suddenly burst in a sickening chorus of pops and splurches until they're all burnt away to ashes!  

Elphaba leans heavily on her staff and yells, "See that, you young whipper-snappers!?  That's how it's done!"  

ROUND 4!!!

It's now Kubo, Simon, Selina, Tegab, Betimi, and Ning/Nang!! (Ning suggests either trying to heal someone or let him summon a creature to help fight.)
