Barendd keeps up with the sled. The second acid arrow from the wand sails past the huge golem and strikes the snowy slope some distance behind.
The golem swings at the celestial hippogriff with its meaty forearm. The slam crumples the majestic animal's leg horribly and it is clearly not going to last long.

*unless you have precise shot, you need to take a -4 penalty for firing in to melee with the wand so you only hit AC6 last time

Once the half-elven wizard, Theodorre, sees Taliea start running again, he turns and starts running also. Alas, the poor bumbling wizard found a slick spot in the snowy landscape, and after struggling he can only get a short distance. full round action: run 1d20(6)+2=8, 1d20(7)+2=9, 1d20(8)+2=10, 1d20(6)+2=8 run 30'
Barrend keeps moving alongside the sled, trying to see how damaged the bridge looks, while stealing glances behind him, expecting to see the golem done with the hippogriff and gaining ground on them. Move up to 60 feet with the sled.
Taliea continues running toward the bridge, calling back to her elven comrade. "Alyana, we can't take this thing, we have to get to the bridge!" Full Round: Run Balance+4= 11+15+6+14
A fool looks at the finger that points at the sky.

Kurt continues to strike at the bridge causing another small crack to appear. The half-orc doesn't look up from his task.
Kerzeme manages to coax the dogs onwards. The proximity of the golemmaking them strain in different directions as they try and escape.
The golem roars with rage and fury. It had struck the hippogriff with venomous ire but rather than savouring the rending of flesh and the snap of bone, it found that its adversary shimmers and disappears slowly in to the ether. Its mis-shapen head swings to look at the fleeing little bipeds and sets of in pursuit.

remember that you can only cross the bridge at half-speed without risking peril
Kerzeme's voice breaks into nearly hysterical yelps as he sees the hippogriff being quickly destroyed. He seems somewhat calmed by the presence of other targ- eh, his comrades, and even on the edge of panic, he can keep the animals moving.

Once the magical creature is quickly destroyed, Theodorre wastes no time in turning and running as fast as he can towards the bridge, clutching his wand and trying to remember what originally brought them to this wasteland. full round action: run 1d20+2=11,4,12,5 run 60' and 5' from the side thx Cal
OOC: NOt sure if summoning a creature is a standard or a full round. If it is a full round, Aylana will not move. If it is a standardshe will move 30 feet. Alyana feels some sadness as the celestial hyppogriff disappear but it did its job slowing down this awful golem. She stops * and asks Corellon Larethian the power to bring another one to keep the golem at bay. * = see OOC
Taliea jogs the last few dozen feet towards the bridge. As she gets closer she tries to see if it looks safe despite Kurt's damage. Double Move: 60ft Spot (while moving if that's OK): 1d20(12)+6=18

Taliea gets to the bridge but realises that although the magical 40ft-wide construction seems sturdy, it is rather icy but passable with care (half-movement). Kurt's endeavours have made little impact to the bridge. A small network like a spider's web of cracks and chips radiated from beneath the half-orc. The bridge is still still supporting his weight it appears.
Kurt swings again. His muscles bulge with the effort and the glaive causes another tiny crack to appear.

alyanna doesnt have any more sumonng spells so i decided to make her move 60ft while she decides what to do.
Looking behind him more often than in front of him, Kerzeme tries not to be eaten by the golem. He quickly looks around himself, checking the condition of his copies ((Has a minute passed since we started?)), and moves. The animals seem very responsive for the moment.
Barrend continues to keep pace with the sled, and if Kerzeme's doubles are still around, he moves next to the sled, knowing that the real one would be on the sled, because there is no way the self-centered mage would walk if he didn't have to, and whispers "Yer doubles up for decoy duty?" move two times, 60 foot total movement.
If Alyana has spells she needs to cast, she could sit on the passenger seat of the sled, and if Kerzeme needs to cast something (like another mirror image), she has a better chance of convincing the dogs to move than Barrend.
