The spells are all lost on the creature. The monster then becomes all grapply with its tentacles.
Abomentolor keeps throwing fireballs.
You really should have run…
Grergof continues to make his point with his ghost touch flail, thanks to Bright blade of victory.
Spugnoir gets splattered by Jello
Grergof splatters the creature all over the place with some swings of his flail. With that the annoying winds also stop.
Oh…. This was devoted to Lissala at one point, but someone updated it some time ago.

Spugnoir pulls out his wand again and starts whapping himself
"Are those shards always buried deep in some deep dark hole no one has been for centuries? Besides those horrors."
"This was exhausting." Abomentolor states as he closes up to look at all the mess from close by.
Isn't everything always in some deep dark hole?
"Might be worth to find a way to simply close those holes and let everything in there rot. Instead we dig ourselves in in them."
"Age is supposed to come with wisdom, but I wonder if I took a wrong turn and walk the path of the fools." Darius ponders.
"At least I have nice company, on whatever path it is we're walking."
"Lisalla you say. That's an interesting coincidence."
What's a coincidence?
They aren't always in holes. Sometimes they are at the top of very tall towers like that one in Ustalav.
"Lisalla is the godess of rune magic. Her holy symbol is the sihedron. The very thing we're trying to collect and rebuild here."
So it looks like we have a reason to keep exploring. Spugnoir examines the statue for any hidden stuff
There is nothing hidden. No treasures, no additional traps and no hostile creatures.
Geregof looks around but keeps getting distracted by the ectoplasm he keeps noticing he needs to clean off his equipment.
"I already have enough of that day. Wanna rest? Or do you feel like meeting more of those monsters?" Abomentolor inquires.
A spot of tea sounds fine. Spugnoir works on his golem.
Abomentolor casts his magnificent mansion to create the proper place for taking a rest. "I'm sure you'll find some tea somewhere on that dinner table."
Once observers have passed beyond the entrance, they are in a magnificent foyer with numerous chambers beyond. The atmosphere is clean, fresh, and warm. The place is furnished and contains sufficient foodstuffs to serve a nine-course banquet for 180 people. A staff of 30 near-transparent servants, liveried and obedient, wait upon all who enter.
Spugnoir gets all the gunk off of himself, starts up a kettle of tea and begins fixing up his golem. Is there some connection between here and Ustalev? I swear we've met those weird tentacle being before.
"This is really nice. You could make a living with that. You have a large wedding or anniversary? We have a proper banquet for you." Darius states while looking through the food served.
"How often can you cast that? It looks like you could have shouldered most of the party in Underbridge with such mansions. It would have lacked the flair of the cities poor district, but otherwise..."
This is almost too comfortable..... Do you by chance have a bath and place to launder clothing in here? Splattering Monsters really does make a mess.
So we have a possible dragon to fight. I'll make some extracts that protect against elements.
While the group is at fixing the aftermath of the fight, Darius starts with healing. "No need to gather scars. Who else needs some?"
Darius casts cure spells until everyone is back to full health.
Grergof is suddenly surrounded by half a dozen servants who want to take care of this issue for him.
"Each room has a neighboring bathroom. Choose one. But that is only for the comfort of taking a bath." Abomentolor casts prestidigitation to remove the splatter of the monster from Grergof. "We won't let that mess hinder you from enjoying the meal now."
We are facing a Blue dragon, right? So we need protection from lightning and to be able fly.
"I can do both for almost the whole party." Abomentolor comments. "But I guess I can do without fly. I'm not trying to catch a dragon."
I can help cover any weaknesses. Abo can handle fire and I can do electricity.
I am all set to go. We better get out before I gain weight.
So rest then head out?
After a very peaceful night in marvelous beds and a hearty breakfast the group leaves the mansion refreshed.
Spugnoir investigates the next set of doors very thoroughly before even considering to open them, but he finds nothing. No trap, and not even locked.
Over fifty feet across and nearly a hundred feet wide, the ceiling of this immense chamber stretches up into the darkness like a silo. The walls glitter with sparkling blue and purple crystals, with those higher up giving the illusion of colored stars above. A stone door sits at the end of a wide hall to the south, while to either side of this entrance, three large black metal doors loom in the walls (although one set of doors to the northwest has been smashed to rubble). The far side of the room features a wide alcove in which a fountain of glowing blue liquid ripples, but the most significant feature of the massive hall is the vast pit that takes up the majority of the floor, leaving a ten-foot-wide ledge around its edges. Silver light shines up from a roiling bank of fog thirty feet down in this immense pit, and now and then, immense rumblings and sloshing sounds, like a whale floundering amid the waves of a distant beach, echo up from the silver-limned depths.
"Another fancy hideout for an appalling abomination?"
Grergof casts his standard battery of spells before they set out.
Bright blade of Victory, veil of positive energy and deadly juggernaut. Then asks for shield and air walk if possible.
Maybe we check the pool first then the smashed doors?
As it looks like Grergof wants to get serious, Darius takes on his Angel form.
1.Shield,CLW,Shield,Targeted Bomb,True Strike,Enlarge Person,Increased Awareness
2.See Invisible,Cure Moderate Wounds,Ablative Barrier,Barkskin,Ironskin
3.Haste,Heroism(used),Resist Energy-Communal,Countless Eyes(used),Displacement
4.Restoration,Death Ward,Death Ward,Restoration
5.Communal Stoneskin,Freedom of Movement
Spugnoir has these extracts available. Stuff that is already used has been used on himself.
oh should we do The whole growth thing again to make me a giant?
Extra large paladin? Sounds good to me.
"Sure. Better to hide behind you." Abomentolor replies and hits Grergof with enlarge person.
Geregof leads the others around the rim to near the fountain.
Ok anyone know anything about this fountain or do we move on to the smashed door?
He is watching for anything out of the ordinary the whole time.
Spugnoir uses Shield Extract on himself (+4 shield AC)
Resist Energy(Communal) on everyone for 30 points electricity
Stoneskin-Communal(150 points absorbed) on everyone?
Any more requests?
The room behind the broken doors is ransacked. Two stone pillars support the low ceiling of this vault. There are no other furnishings in the chamber, and the room’s walls are lined with empty niches. An immense and broken scorpion-shaped statue made of bones lies in the middle of the room. Obviously a guardian like at the entrance the group took into this dungeon.
If I can get a sample of the pool I can try to identify. Everyone ready in case there is another nasty in it?
"Why not. We're already buffed up."
"Give it a shot."
Noonan gives the golem a vial and send it to scoop up some of the pool.
The golem 'fills' the vial with the mist from the pool and returns it to Spugnoir.
While Spugnoir examines the contents of the vial, another oversized abomination appears. Out of the mist rises a worms which's front end is all maw and teeth. The body is going on for as least as far as one can see in the pool.
Whoopsi! Go get it, Varsk!

Spgnoir splashes everyone with haste while the Golem backs up.
Abomentolor doesn't like those big monsters. He casts greater invisibility on himself.
