Well. Isn't that an interesting addition to the festivities.
First off, K(the Planes), Abyss not a specialty...
Next roll, initiative...
Action: Zhegre isn't sure what the thing is atop the thoqqua, but it looks dead and it looks strong-willed. Not having been at all successful with the displays of authority so far this trip, he decides to delay any attempts at subduing either foe spiritually, and calls upon the mantle of the patron of warriors to ward himself and his friends.
Stepping back out of reach of the thoqqua, he holds his holy symbol where all around can see. "Sgoostk vierif sekh luydeye!" he prays, casting magic circle agains evil. If a convenient ally is to hand and nearer to the center of his group, he'll use that ally as the center; if not, himself.
(And while he's not foolhardy, he's no coward either; if stepping back means he loses his chance to affect one of the frontline fighters, especially Kadar, he won't, and will risk the AoO! Hopefully that won't be a consideration, though.)
