[spoiler=Actions]
Lyolf
Swift Action: Using Arcane Pool to grant a +2 enhancement to Lyolf's sword
Free Action: 5-ft-step forward, Choosing a negative bonus for the round via Obsidian Reflection
Standard Action: Casting Cat's Grace

Uli
Move Action: Flying 15 ft skyward, then 65 ft forward, such that Mr. Kitty is directly below the bird
Standard Action: Initiating Shadow Feather Strike against Mr. Kitty via Channel of Woe

[spoiler=Obsidian Reflection]
Obsidian Reflection Stance
Shattered Mirror (Stance)
Level: 1
Prerequisites: None
Initiation Action: 1 swift action
Range: 20 ft.
Area: 20 ft. emanation centered on you
Duration: Stance

You emanate an aura that either enhances the perceptions of those within it or makes them warped and twisted; at the beginning of each round, choose one: creatures (including you) within your aura gain a +1 circumstance bonus to attack and damage rolls, or creatures (including you) within your aura suffer a -1 penalty to attack and damage rolls. The effects of this stance increase by 1 per four initiator levels (so +/- 2 at 4th level, +/- 3 at 8th level, and so on).
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Channel of Woe]
Channel of Woe (Su): At 3rd level, the Ravenlord's Dark Messenger gains the ability to initiate counters and strikes that the Ravenlord has readied. The Dark Messenger's initiator level is equal to the Ravenlord's; its initiation modifier is Intelligence. Only either the Ravenlord or the Dark Messenger may initiate a strike in the same round (that is, if the Dark Messenger initiates a strike, the Ravenlord may not initiate a strike in the same round, and vice versa). When either the Ravenlord or his Dark Messenger initiates a strike, the other being generates a 10 ft. radius sphere known as a Gloom around themselves (the Gloom is generated after the strike is resolved); this Gloom is stationary, lasts for 1 round, and grants partial concealment to the creature that generated it so long as that creature is within its area.
           
At 3rd level, hostile creatures within the Gloom are cursed and suffer a -2 penalty on skill checks and Reflex saves.
           
At 9th level, hostile creatures within the Gloom also suffer a -4 penalty to AC, attack rolls, and damage rolls.
           
At 15th level, hostile creatures within the Gloom also suffer a -2 penalty to Fortitude and Will saves, and may not make attacks of opportunity while within the Gloom.
   
These are energy drain effects (which means, among other things, that undead and constructs are not subject to them).
           
This ability replaces Grim News.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Shadow Feather Strike]
Discipline: Black Seraph (Strike) [evil]; Level: 2
Initiation Action: 1 standard action
Range: 30-ft
Target: One creature
Duration: Instant

DESCRIPTION

By concentrating dark, spiritual energy within his hand shaping it into a rough feather-like shape, the disciple may hurl his wrath at a target with a blade of a cutting hate. When initiating this strike, the disciple makes a ranged touch attack against a target that inflicts 4d6 + initiation modifier in profane damage.

[spoiler=Spilled Salt]
Cursed Razor (Counter)
Level: 1
Prerequisites:  None
Initiation Action: 1 immediate action
Range: Medium (100 feet plus 10 feet per level)
Target: 1 Creature
Duration: 1 round or special (see text)

This unsubtle counter disrupts an opponent with a blatant curse, whelming them with misfortune. The victim of this counter suffers a -4 penalty to their next attack roll or skill check this round.
[/spoiler]

"Bad Kitty! BAD!"

[spoiler=Actions]
Lyolf
Free Action: Positive bonus for Obsidian Reflection, and if the cat is adjacent to Lyolf, he 5-ft-steps back AFTER the two all-out attacks
Swift Action: Dark Claim on Mr. Kitty to recover Spilled Salt
Full-Round Action: Spell Combat to cast Shocking Grasp (Delivering it as a melee attack via Spellstrike), then make an attack against Mr. Kitty

Uli
Free Action: Changing to Medium-size via Sorrow's Shadow
Full-Round Action: Charging at Mr. Kitty from above and applying Frenzy Strike as part of the charge. This should activate Death from Above.

[spoiler=Dark Claim]
The Harbinger reaches out with her sorcerous malice, marking foes as her own. As a swift action, the Harbinger may Claim an enemy that she can see (including with special senses such as blindsense or tremorsense) within close range (25 feet plus 5 feet per 2 levels) for a number of rounds equal to  ½ her class level (minimum 1). The Harbinger automatically knows the position of creatures she has Claimed. Any opponent the Harbinger cannot see has total concealment (50% miss chance) against her, and the Harbinger still has the normal miss chance when attacking foes that have concealment. The Harbinger is still denied her Dexterity bonus to Armor Class against attacks from Claimed creatures she cannot see. Additionally, Claimed creatures using the Withdraw action to leave a square threatened by the Harbinger provoke attacks of opportunity from her. The Harbinger may only have a number of Claimed creatures equal to or less than her Intelligence modifier at any given time, and may not Claim creatures with less than 1 HD.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Spellstrike]
At 2nd level, whenever a magus casts a spell with a range of "touch" from the magus spell list, he can deliver the spell through any weapon he is wielding as part of a melee attack. Instead of the free melee touch attack normally allowed to deliver the spell, a magus can make one free melee attack with his weapon (at his highest base attack bonus) as part of casting this spell. If successful, this melee attack deals its normal damage as well as the effects of the spell. If the magus makes this attack in concert with spell combat, this melee attack takes all the penalties accrued by spell combat melee attacks. This attack uses the weapon's critical range (20, 19–20, or 18–20 and modified by the keen weapon property or similar effects), but the spell effect only deals ×2 damage on a successful critical hit, while the weapon damage uses its own critical modifier.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Frenzy Strike]
By emulating the ferocious assault of a raging great cat, the disciple's knowledge of the natural world and the way its predators operate assists him in combat with a furious set of attacks. The initiator makes one attack with each weapon he has wielded (or with both heads of a double weapon; this includes natural attacks and armor or shield spikes) at his full base attack bonus. Upon a each successful attack, the initiator inflicts an additional 2d6 points of damage.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Death From Above]
You allow gravity to add extra force to your charges.

Benefit: Whenever you charge an opponent from higher ground, or from above while flying, you gain a +5 bonus on attack rolls in place of the bonuses from charging and being on higher ground.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Sorrow's Shadow]
At 4th level, the Dark Messenger's type changes to magical beast and it gains Toughness as a bonus feat. Do not recalculate its base attack bonus, hit points (except those granted by Toughness), saving throws, or skills. Once per turn, as a free action, the Dark Messenger may increase its size to Medium or revert to its natural size. This increases to Large at 10th level, and Huge at 16th level.
           
This ability replaces Massacre.

Slight mistake.

Add +2 to Lyolf's attack and damage via Arcane Pool, but attack increase is neutralized due to the negative penalty of using Spell Combat. However, there's still the +1 bonus to attack and damage due to a Friendly Crowd.

[info]Yeah. Lets assume each round takes an hour after the first one. To prepare the monsters, cleanup, etc. To make it easier mention which spells are still active and their duration.[/info]

As the next round was prepared, you see in the distance what looked to be a robed figure, covered from brownish-black clothing. Apart from that, it was still too far to get any more details.

The person, if it was one, didn't say anything, though it gurgled a response. It dashed forward, and suddenly the light around him seemed to diminish, as if he surrounded by a shadowy light. By your estimation the globe around him seemed to stretch around 20 ft. around him.

An hour later, the arena opened up again, this time as the dust settled you see 115 ft. away a mound of something green. It looked like some sort of green slime, and you can clearly see the creature pulsating and dripping. It seemed to be agitated as its slime continued to reach forth in successive bursts like spasms.

[info]
Assuming the creature tried to grapple Lyolf, he'd perform his standard spell combo (Spell Combat -> Arcane Mark -> Spellstike) and Uli would apply Frenzy Strike to a charge. Else if, the creature tried to grapple Uli, Lyolf would take a standard action to refresh Frenzy Strike, then spend his remaining move action to get as close to the melee as possible.

Also, forgot to add +5 to Uli's damage for the initiation modifier.

Is the creature still alive?

An hour later the arena was cleared and the new challengers placed into combat. You didn't know what to expect, though you knew the fight was to be harder. Soon enough the next opponent was unveiled and before you stood a serpentine creature, like a wingless dragon, but had five heads attached to the body. It towered to maybe 24 ft. in height. Though even that was an estimation as the way the heads moved around and the necks coiled, that it made it difficult to get a good measure. Unlike the other previous rounds however, there was a sizeable crowd to this one. Most of the would-be adventurers had to stop at the fight before, and from here on out were perhaps the toughest the event organizers could get together.

Swift Action: Activating Dark Claim on opponent and recovering Shadowfeather Strike

[spoiler=Arcane Mark]
School universal; Level sorcerer/wizard 0
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range touch
Effect one personal rune or mark, all of which must fit within 1 sq. ft.
Duration permanent
Saving Throw none; Spell Resistance no
This spell allows you to inscribe your personal rune or mark, which can consist of no more than six characters. The writing can be visible or invisible. An arcane mark spell enables you to etch the rune upon any substance without harm to the material upon which it is placed. If an invisible mark is made, a detect magic spell causes it to glow and be visible, though not necessarily understandable.

See invisibility, true seeing, a gem of seeing, or a robe of eyes likewise allows the user to see an invisible arcane mark. A read magic spell reveals the words, if any. The mark cannot be dispelled, but it can be removed by the caster or by an erase spell.

If an arcane mark is placed on a living being, the effect gradually fades in about a month.

Arcane mark must be cast on an object prior to casting instant summons on the same object (see that spell description for details).

Dark Claim (Su): The Harbinger reaches out with her sorcerous malice, marking foes as her own. As a swift action, the Harbinger may Claim an enemy that she can see (including with special senses such as blindsense or tremorsense) within close range (25 feet plus 5 feet per 2 levels) for a number of rounds equal to  ½ her class level (minimum 1). The Harbinger automatically knows the position of creatures she has Claimed. Any opponent the Harbinger cannot see has total concealment (50% miss chance) against her, and the Harbinger still has the normal miss chance when attacking foes that have concealment. The Harbinger is still denied her Dexterity bonus to Armor Class against attacks from Claimed creatures she cannot see. Additionally, Claimed creatures using the Withdraw action to leave a square threatened by the Harbinger provoke attacks of opportunity from her. The Harbinger may only have a number of Claimed creatures equal to or less than her Intelligence modifier at any given time, and may not Claim creatures with less than 1 HD.

In order for the Harbinger to recover maneuvers she must tap into her sorcerous malice by activating her Dark Claim class feature; the Harbinger recovers a single expended maneuver whenever she Claims a creature, and recovers a number of expended maneuvers equal to her Intelligence modifier whenever a creature she has Claimed is reduced to zero or less hit points. Alternately, the Harbinger may concentrate on her inner negativity and recover a single maneuver as a standard action.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Channel of Woe]
Channel of Woe (Su): At 3rd level, the Ravenlord's Dark Messenger gains the ability to initiate counters and strikes that the Ravenlord has readied. The Dark Messenger's initiator level is equal to the Ravenlord's; its initiation modifier is Intelligence. Only either the Ravenlord or the Dark Messenger may initiate a strike in the same round (that is, if the Dark Messenger initiates a strike, the Ravenlord may not initiate a strike in the same round, and vice versa). When either the Ravenlord or his Dark Messenger initiates a strike, the other being generates a 10 ft. radius sphere known as a Gloom around themselves (the Gloom is generated after the strike is resolved); this Gloom is stationary, lasts for 1 round, and grants partial concealment to the creature that generated it so long as that creature is within its area.
           
At 3rd level, hostile creatures within the Gloom are cursed and suffer a -2 penalty on skill checks and Reflex saves.
           
At 9th level, hostile creatures within the Gloom also suffer a -4 penalty to AC, attack rolls, and damage rolls.
           
At 15th level, hostile creatures within the Gloom also suffer a -2 penalty to Fortitude and Will saves, and may not make attacks of opportunity while within the Gloom.
   
These are energy drain effects (which means, among other things, that undead and constructs are not subject to them).
           
This ability replaces Grim News.

An hour later as the arena was cleared up and you ushered back in, on the other side of the arena was a large creature of some sort. From your point of view, it looked like some sort of pile of flesh and blubber. It looked rotting, though you couldn't quite decide if it was undead or not. The most prominent feature of this rotting blob of flesh was a large and gaping maw filled with sharp teeth. There was a much larger crowd than even last match, and though it wasn't quite as full as during the time the Tournaments ran, it was getting there.

As Uli came closer to the beast, a sudden stench caught it off guard. It was enough that Uli's attack missed completely.

[info]Uli to roll fortitude

Lyolf to confirm on initiative order. By RAW, familiars + animal companions roll initiative, but for easier book-keeping, having them act on your turn is easier, I accept both ways. Your first post Lyolf moved first, so I assume Uli is next in line, eg:

Lyolf -> Uli -> Enemy

You can do a Readied action to ready a standard action (not full round), so that is an option. There might be some rule about purposefully losing initiative, but I can't find it. Given the above initiative order, Lyolf would have nothing to recover, as Uli wouldn't have used Shadow Feather Strike yet.[/info]

[info]Actually, the Ravenlord's pet is a special case. Under the ability entry which grants the shadowy bird companion (whose name eludes me at the moment), the text very specifically states that the bird takes its turn when the Ravenlord does so. Therefore, Lyolf did have something to recover, as Uli had already acted. Either way...

Uli's Fort: [blockquote]Rolled 1d20+7 : 16 + 7, total 23[/blockquote][/info]

Uli was able to recover as it continued to fly over head. The large maw creature continued to rush towards you as it picked up its speed. As it neared you smelled something horrible...

[info]Lyolf to roll fort.

Lyolf to confirm on movement Since Uli moves first, the gloom is generated where Lyolf is currently standing. You mention you plan to stealth again, so I assume you are doing a 10 ft. movement back, to still be within the gloom's effects.[/info]

Benefit: The magus can expend 1 or more point from her arcane pool as a free action to shrug off detrimental effects. She can immediately attempt a second saving throw to shrug off one unwanted condition even if she fails this save she ignores one debilitating conditions per point expended that she is currently under the effect of for 1 round per magus class level, that time counts as part of each condition's duration. Once this benefit lapses, the remaining conditions return for the remainder of their durations. She cannot delay or shrug off the dead condition.

And if you were wondering about what type of damage natural weapons do then see here (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/rules-for-monsters/universal-monster-rules#TOC-Table:-Natural-Attacks-by-Size)[/info]

An hour later as the arena was cleaned up and you ushered back in, you see some sort of humanoid creature 110 ft. away. It looked like it was completely covered in some hard armor, and you noticed the large pincer-like claw it had on its right hand. It seemed to breathe hard, as if it had trouble breathing, though as the creature began starting to move towards you, it didn't seem as if it affected any of its abilities.

An hour later you were ushered back into the arena with another opponent. The arenas were completely full. There were only a few individuals who managed to make it this far into the challenge arena, and many of them cheered for both you and your guild. You see some banners that people waved around with your name in plain sight to see. On the other side of the arena was a large bull. It stood over 15 ft. tall, and its body was around 30 ft. in length. Its horns were reminiscent of a stag, and were spaced at about 15 ft. apart.
