Yes indeed. Very nicely executed combat, Mr. DM. That was a lot of fun!

Dok will also flachion-fry the half-troll things with Emrael, then stares and stares at Pip... "Huh..."

Thankx!!!

"Does....Pip do that a lot when he's asleep?"

Nitey nite!

Elgan tree shimmers down to his usual elf size. (ALthough for a few moments he still has patches of bark on his skin.) And examines Pip with a critical eye.

"Naw,... he snores lahk a ephenant, but ah don t'ink did heahs nurmul!"

The druid looks, worried,...

BTW all, I'm heading to New Orleans for the weekend, gonna attend Mechacon and play some games! :)

Unfortunately this means I will not have internet access till Sunday at the earliest. And I'll probably be too tired to even think about catching up till Monday. :)

Have a nice Weekend! :D

"I've only known Pip for a short time, but even I suspect that the spiders are just not right. Altai, Elgin, any ideas what's causing this? Should we wake him up?"

Satari emerges wet but clean from the river to stand in the huddle of concern forming around Pip.

He is unconscious, from being choked out by Rusalka hair.

"Spiders out is good." Dok says as he looks on.

What are the spiders doing as they evacuate the slack-lipped maw of Pip?

"Drown them, and drown him."

"It seems highly unlikely that drowning poor Pip will make him feel any better. One of Elgan's more powerful healing magicks ought to do the trick."

Heal clears out all sorts of unpleasant afflictions; it seems to be the go-to spell here.

They're crawling around, doing spider stuff.

Elgan's gone for the weekend, so.....

WTF.....he shoes the spiders away. They listen to him; he's a freakin druid.

He heals pip up to the max.

Pip is now awake and no longer vomiting up spiders.

"There's a cave the beasts came out of......do you want to check it out?

Do you want me to shank the feebleminded Rusalka? I really don't like Rusalkas....."

Huzzzah!

"Truly unnecessary, my dear."

Beldan tries to sweet talk the remaining rusalka and convince her to close her eyes, to take a very long nap. If she does so, he will coup d'grace her.

Diplomacy 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

Damage 2d6 + 8 + 8d6 ⇒ (6, 6) + 8 + (6, 5, 2, 6, 5, 3, 3, 6) = 56

Emrael nods at the question regarding the cave, but watches Beldan's performance impassively.

She lies down, and he does her in.

Em:

Em:

Huzzzzzah!

Pip sits up and retches out a furry spider

"Ok, what the jimmyjacksauce is going on?"

Heh heh.......Pip's back in the "real world."

Pip; you don't see any of that stuff anymore. Except a bunch of spiders crawling all over.

And the one you just coughed up.

"Pip....how'd you learn to spit spiders up in your sleep?"

"ummm. That's a good question"

Pip shakes his head and brushes the spiders off him

"I was somewhere else, and there were spiders, and a mammoth raven "

"You were there, the whole time. I thought you had bought it."

off to the bookstore......back in a couple hours.

Huzzzzahr!

Pip looks about

"I'd say it was a near-death dream, but you usually dont puke spiders for those"

"Hmmm, dream; I've heard that word, but don't know what it means.
Never heard of a near-death dream though.
What do you normally do, when you near-death dream?"

"Odd. This is a strange land. Now, let's make sure there aren't any more freaks in their cave."

Who's going in?
The river is right up against the entrance.

Dok will cast water walk on himself, then head over to the cave entrance, telling Colu to stay.

I'll head in. Not alone, though.

Dok and Altai at least head in. There's a ridge at the cave mouth; it has a pond within, about 50 yards across. Blind, small, albino things swim in the pond.
On the far side there's another 20 by 30 foot ridge, and behind that a tunnel.

Looks like there are some corpses on the far ridge; human sized.

Huzzzah!!!!!!!

"I don't like this. That water is filthy."

football time....huzzah!

"Aye... Filthy." Rholf agrees as he quickly skims the water's surface to get to the ridge on the far side of the pond.
