Eberron: The Mark of Death (Inactive)

Game Master BloodWolven

For the first hour of hiking through the jungle the group keeps quiet helping out each other to remain as stealthy as you can. You even spot a group of red eyed baboons that don't notice you on the way.

The next hour the group almost literally stumbles into a den of somekind. A fungus like creature with tentacles comes bursting out.

Rhobannon pulls out a piece of rabbit fur and wipes down his blade, causing it to take on a green sheen.

weapon augmentation, personal. Adding Impervious and Bane to my sword. What knowledge will tell me what this creature is?

Most knowledge checks, DC 10 would tell you that this creature appears to be either a plant or abberation.

With The group's keen eyes and ears they catch the mass of vines forming some sort of body unaware. Falko's touch makes the vines nearly go limp as Cil stabs into the mass while Saronis swipes with his sword to sever nearly a third of the vines as green sap covers the ground.
