Hiram grumbles beneath his breath as they slog through the muck. Eventually the grumbling gets a sort of cadence and before long he's humming along to his own complaints.

As the party travels through the boggy bog pit, Ander occasionally stops to pick a plant and study it, before discarding it. What was it? Red plant with frilly berries? No that's not it. Eventually he stops, picking a plant and begins to pace excitedly. This is it! Frilly plant with red beads hanging from it! He walks over to Chelsea handing her a fistful of the plants. Here you go my dear! You know, I'd actually read about this plant once in an old tome at the Lodge in Absalom. Botanical Species of Avistan, Eastern Region, including Taldor, Qadira, Andoran, and portions of the Verduran Forest & Five Kings Mountains, I think it was called.

Ow! Opal takes a look at her leg.

"Thanks Ander." She says while stuffing a few of the plants into her pack. "That book sounds like it would make better kindling than reading, but I am glad you have read it."

Ahhh - you seek Crones tongue?.
He gives her a half nod.
He grabs a few samples from the muck for himself then gives her another small nod.

Swamps are not my favorite places to be. Opal says as she picks leeches off her legs and throws them away. You may want to check yourselves.
As an afterthought, Better than a narcissistic Gnome, I guess.

The future would be hellknight checks himself.

"Leeches?!?" Hiram immediately begins checking EVERYWHERE.

Ander has 3 new friends, should be search, though the alcohol in his systems seems to have deterred them. Chelsea finds 2 that have not fed on her hot-bloodedness. Leeches apparently like royal (or divine) blood, because both Hiram and Opal are packing six unwanted travelers each. Four of them on Hiram have fed pretty well, and only three have eaten the blood of angels. Luccius finds two on, both having grown fat.
After a few minutes of traveling, some of the party feels a little drained.
Hiram takes four special* Con damage.
Luccius takes two special* Con damage.
Opal takes three special* Con damage.

I don't feel so good... any chance that magical healing will work?
HP 73/73; Init +6, Perc +11; AC 30, T 18, FF 22, CMD 23; F+6, R+15, W+8,
"This is so not the company I was looking for in my pants, dammit. Opal, feel up to laying on hands?" Hiram grins at the holy woman.

"Eww, gross."
Chelsea says with disgust as she begins to try to rip the leeches off of herself.
Aasimar Monk 1 / Bard 2
Opal guides the party to a patch of dry ground, then sets about tending to the leech wounds.
Heal: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Let's be a little more careful where we step from now on.

So, how are you guys handling the leeches, with all the damage and whatnot? removing them and then channeling is the least resource-heavy version, since I didn't see "salt" on anyone's list of gear.
Primal Fire Sorceress 5 (HP 50/37) | AC 13 (16 MA) Touch 12 FF 11 | Saves F +5 R +4 W +5
Well I ripped them off. I don't see any damage listed above for me, and I did not think channeling fixed Con damage.

* wrote: Each leech deals 1 point of temporary Constitution damage that’s recovered as soon as the PC is healed in any way. Once a leech deals damage, it becomes bloated and can be removed with no difficulty (or falls off by itself.) Leeches can be pulled or burnt off (dealing 1 hp damage), or salted off (no damage). Sorry, I thought I put the special infopile in a quote, not a spoiler. My bad.

Pull the leeches off, but I can't watch
Primal Fire Sorceress 5 (HP 50/37) | AC 13 (16 MA) Touch 12 FF 11 | Saves F +5 R +4 W +5
Okay, following that with infernal healing and I am good to go.
AC23/Touch16/Flat18/CMD23||HP40 [52]|Fort:+7;Ref:+7;Will:+7|Percept +15|Init +5 Elf Magus 8
Yeah, I'll use a charge of my I.H. when.done.
HP 73/73; Init +6, Perc +11; AC 30, T 18, FF 22, CMD 23; F+6, R+15, W+8,
A dagger for Hiram, followed by a hit from the wand, please!
AC23/Touch16/Flat18/CMD23||HP40 [52]|Fort:+7;Ref:+7;Will:+7|Percept +15|Init +5 Elf Magus 8
Ander will use his Infernal Healing wand on Hiram, after he cuts off the leeches.

Luccinus hands his wand over to Anders and asks that he hit him with his own wand.
Aasimar Monk 1 / Bard 2
After taking the leeches off, Opal uses her wand on herself.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
FYI, I am an Oracle, not a Cleric, so I don't have Channel Energy.

Now that the leech issues are handled, what's our marching order? Same as before?

The path continues for about a mile and a half when it comes to the edge of a shallow bog whose waters rise above the muck, covering the tracks entirely. A patchy film of sickly colored, rubbery fungus floats upon the surface. Near the water’s edge, three moss-covered planks hang cockeyed from a rotten wooden post.
AC23/Touch16/Flat18/CMD23||HP40 [52]|Fort:+7;Ref:+7;Will:+7|Percept +15|Init +5 Elf Magus 8
Ander looks around the area. Which way now
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
HP 73/73; Init +6, Perc +11; AC 30, T 18, FF 22, CMD 23; F+6, R+15, W+8,
Hiram looks at the planks and frowns. He steps forward and brushes away the moss, revealing the spoiler below...
AC23/Touch16/Flat18/CMD23||HP40 [52]|Fort:+7;Ref:+7;Will:+7|Percept +15|Init +5 Elf Magus 8
Ander frowns at Hiram. Are we just going to wade into the water?
Aasimar Monk 1 / Bard 2
Opal consults the Map, That way , I think.
Male Bear Burglar 1
As Hiram approaches the planks, the lake (or more likely, something in it) begins to scream really loudly! "Think" must be the Secret Word of the Day!
Inits (please check they might still be all bonkered up)
Ander: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Chelsea: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Opal: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17
Hiram: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Luccius: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
Lake-y, your new mascot: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (4) - 1 = 31d3 ⇒ 1
MAP
As Hiram moves forward, he finds himself wading through a thick layer of alge (though the ground is high enough to remove difficult terrain penalites in the brown area. Green is boggyness.)

Do I see what triggered initiative, or have a target? If not I hold until I do.
HP 73/73; Init +6, Perc +11; AC 30, T 18, FF 22, CMD 23; F+6, R+15, W+8,
Hiram draws his rapier and whip and steps five feet away from the water.
Male Bear Burglar 1
Init was triggered by the screaming noise, not by any creature actually appearing (yet.)

Luccinus moves to cover Hiram, new sword drawn.

Are we still in? Hate for this to fold
Primal Fire Sorceress 5 (HP 50/37) | AC 13 (16 MA) Touch 12 FF 11 | Saves F +5 R +4 W +5
I will be holding until I have a target, if that was not clear.
Male Bear Burglar 1
I have no actions from Opal or Ander; I generally autodelay when I only have one person being waited on.
AC23/Touch16/Flat18/CMD23||HP40 [52]|Fort:+7;Ref:+7;Will:+7|Percept +15|Init +5 Elf Magus 8
Ander draws his curve blade and readies himself. He tries to remember if he had heard if anything like this screaming.
KN: Nature: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
Male Bear Burglar 1
Chelsea delays, waiting for a target!
--
Hiram steps up and draws his whip/DEVO puns!
---
Opal delays as well!
---
Luccius steps up next to his Taldan acquaintance!
---
Ander readies his blade and thinks, though can't really tell anyone anything with all the noise!
---
The shrieking does not stop, but a more pressing matter is at hand! A big glob of purple-ish grossness swims (kind of like standing, if, say, Hiram had ) out from underneath the muck! It is roughly the size of a man, and has a lot of long tendrils! One of its feeler-y-things reach out towards Hiram to give him a tentacle slap as it inches closer!
Tendril!: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 81d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
---
Everyone, in the order of Chelsea, Opal, Hiram, Luccius, Ander! MAP!

Move 2 squares (15 Feet) NW, Fire bolt.
Moving around Ander to get a clear shot, Chelsea lobs a bolt of flame at the creature.
Attack 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17 (PBS, Touch)
Damage 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 (PBS)
Aasimar Monk 1 / Bard 2
Opal stabs at the tentacle with her longspear.
Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15, Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Cant' see the map at the moment. I really need to have a better answer to non-humanoid mobs...
Male Bear Burglar 1
Note the tentacles are like regular reach attacks; not separate creatures. Just stab the beast-y plant? You can get there in a move action.
HP 73/73; Init +6, Perc +11; AC 30, T 18, FF 22, CMD 23; F+6, R+15, W+8,
"Dammit! Make it shut up!" Hiram steps forward with his rapier and stabs at the thing. Arcane strike!
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 for 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Aasimar Monk 1 / Bard 2

Note that Hiram's mouth is moving, but all anyone can hear is "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
