"Oh, yessss, that should let you sleep at night. You attacked me first, you mewling strumpet. You could have made this soooo easy, and loved me. Instead, your Mortimer raised his hand, with no provocation whatsoever. I'm still not sure which of you burned me, but I'm sure I'll forget all about you, when I learn of your deaths. I only hope it's slow and painful, with much cursing. Zyrxog is good squeezing curses from ants like you. Run along now. A shame I can't stay and watch real men fight, since there are none. Perhaps I'll visit you in your dreams, when you are naked, and alone."
With those final words, Fassash vanishes. Something ripples the greenish waters, and moves towards the tunnels beyond.
Yesssss, she casssst Invisibility.

”She turned invisible, Eri hit her with… Oh, right. Cowardice of Curs, she’s going to get away!” he turns to Sol, ”Do something!”
He puts the wand of curing away, 5’ steps to be closer to Eri, and channels to heal the party, including the food fighters. Always undoing what I’ve healed! Crazy…
He’s careful to carve out the drow, but he cannot see the naga, so if she’s close enough, she too might be healed.
Round 8, Init 12
"Where did she go?" Sol looks to Ascaria.
Solrisa delays, waiting for someone to point out where the pretty-eyed snake went.

"Oh, yessss, make no doubt about it. I am trooly boo-hoo-hoo-ing NOT." Fassash vanishes. Something ripples the greenish waters, and moves towards the tunnels beyond.
Finally! It stopped. Mortimer sighs in relief.
Mortimer glances at the stagnant pool. No, I don't want to deal with that train wreck again so soon! He looks at Eri, waving chunks of cured meat in front of his face. Besides, there are -- he scowls, searching for an adjective -- weirder things to deal with... I don't know why!
Mortimer spits, trying to aim the skewer in his mouth at Eri while searching -- in his backpack -- for a beverage worthy of the indignation he feels from being attacked by Eri that matches the indignation Eri certainly must feel from being counter-attacked by him.
for
Fortunately for Eri, the skewer remains well tucked between Mort's molars.
For what seems like an eternity, the fog of confusion clears from no less than three of your party's members. Last is Mortimer, by mere seconds. Plenty of time for those who wish to be far from here to do so. Not even a parting fireball to say goodbye.
Aside from the naga's chamber, you find the next chamber to be the living quarters of the drow unit, replete with beds, desks, and personal chests. There is a small pen that once held livestock, all dead from fire. Roasted chickens and half-seared pigs, thankful for unconsciousness as the 3rd degree burns bring the smell of bacon to the chamber.
On the southern wall, there is a stone door, carved into the side of the chamber wall. You will find the door locked, of course. To the west, a corridor provides the means forward.

Ascaria carefully checks each party member for injury, healing them with the wand as he does so.
When everyone is healed, he re-links the party to his lifeline of healing. Then he turns to the group, "That damn naga will be back, sure enough. She's a slippery one, but we need to take her out when we encounter her again. Evil creature."
He helps the group loot the dead drow, casting Detect Magic when appropriate and taking-10 on the IDs
Anything he can't identify he passes to Eri to suss out. He is particularly keen on trying to find a key to the stone door. "We have a hallway, so we can come back." he mumbles.
"Damn naga..." he says again as he works. When the healing and looting are done, he's ready to move on. "Spells are burning."
The female drow holds the key to the stone door. Literally. She has two keys, in fact, one to her personal chest, and one to the stone door that awaits unlocking. The collection of drow equipment amasses quickly enough, with hands no longer confused. All chests are opened without fear, once Tynan applies his studies.
At the rear of the chamber rests a small shrine, depicting a half-woman-half-spider goddess as a beautiful deep jade statuette.
This is Lolth, Queen of Spider, chief goddess of drow elves.
5 MW Rapiers
5 MW Hand Crossbows

Solrisa wonders around for a bit, looking for the naga, but eventually returns to the drow room when she cannot be found. She casts pointed looks at Mort & Eri, wondering if they had punched themselves tired and were done or wanted to hurt each other more.
She, for the first time in a while, was slightly annoyed (mostly because of the wasted cheese) and that their bickering had let the naga get away.
Sol puts out her sword, then puts it away so she can help organize the bodies and whatnot.
Know (religion)
When she espies the jade statuette, she draws his morningstar and smashes the statuette to pieces...saying only "That Demon B&#+& is not a good person."
Solrisa will take 2 of the alchemist fires and is ready to move on. She casts another worried and unhappy look at Mort and Eri.
Tynan listens down the open corridor, wanting to make sure nothing surprises the group.
Something... wet... sounds like it's slowly moving across the cavern floor, keeping its distance, not getting closer, while you're listening...
As you look ahead, you barely manage in the dimness of Ascaria's sunrod, to see some kind of glyph etched into the ceiling, just a little bit into the narrowing of the hallway.
"Careful Sol... there's some sort of glyph on the ceiling just in front of you. Eri? Ascaria?" Tynan points out the glyph to the more magical types.
"Careful Sol... there's some sort of tiff on the ceiling just in front of you."
Solrisa stops and turns around to look at Tynan.
"What? Are Eri and Mort fighting again?!" Solrisa asks, the echoes of the cavern causing her to mishear.
She looks at Eri and Mort to see if they are going to start wasting cheese again.

Fimboe wheel firmly in hand, Mortimer laments loudly as he presses it into Eri's face, "This little guy's head is too small!" He then suddenly frees Eri's head. What the -- why am I doing this again?! "Sorry about that! Something came over me! OH NO! Look! The Fimboe! It's half gone! What happened?" He looks down at his calf, and pulls out the shortbow arrow and hands it back to Eri. "I think this is yours." He then unwedges the jerky skewer from his head and removes all of the crossbow bolts still sticking out of his body.
Mortimer takes the wand from Ascaria, then glowers at it and shakes it before handing it back.
"Thanks Ascaria," he says gravely, regretting the whole confusion incident. "Next time just have someone knock me out."
He looks over the spoils. "Oooh! Oooh! Throwables! He takes 2 alchemy fires. He'd like all of the tanglefoot bags, but is willing to share if anyone else would like tanglefoot bags. He also takes the +1 crossbow if no one else is interested. He takes some roast chicken and pig for later.
She casts pointed looks at Mort & Eri, wondering if they had punched themselves tired and were done or wanted to hurt each other more.
Huh, she seems ... disappointed in us?
"That Demon B#~@# is not a good person."
Interesting... is she that angry with us?! I'm usually the one who likes to smash things!
He smiles at her appreciatively, then sheepishly soft-shoes up to her and the remains of the shrine. He points to the jade shards. "Do you think you'll want to shape some of those into dragon chess pieces? The other side could be alabaster?" he asks gingerly and innocently.
"Careful Sol... there's some sort of glyph on the ceiling just in front of you. Eri? Ascaria?" Tynan points out the glyph to the more magical types.
"Whoa!" Mortimer looks up, then around the room.
"Do you think you'll want to shape some of those into dragon chess pieces? The other side could be alabaster?"
Solrisa looks down after the smashing, not even considering that until Mort pointed it out.
"Okay, yeah, that's a good idea, but I don't want to fight about it. It's possible...yeah, these are nice" Solrisa examines a bigger chunk. "Yeah, maybe. But you can't try to shove it down my throat."
Solrisa packs away the chunks that might be good for carving later, noting that Mort remembered how important it was for her to carve things...as she'll need a job to do when this thing was all done.
* * *
Solrisa steps far away from the strange glyph, waiting for others to handle things.
"Thanks Ascaria," he says gravely, regretting the whole confusion incident. "Next time just have someone knock me out."
"That's funny Mort. Good one." Ascaria laughs as he examines the loot.
"Careful Sol... there's some sort of glyph on the ceiling just in front of you. Eri? Ascaria?" Tynan points out the glyph to the more magical types.
"Oh, good eye Tynan."
Ascaria walks up toward the glyph but, unable to see it clearly, looks around frustrated. Eventually he says, "Mort, can you boost me up here?"
Assuming the big man helps out, Ascaria examines the glyph carefully, casting Detect Magic to examine its auras.
The casting of Detect Magic reveals first the presence of the auras. With time, since you'll have it, the most potent auras cling to the female drow's equipment. The glyph's aura is faint. Studying the glyph for its school of magic, and you fail to understand it
You almost take it for a trick of your eyes, as varying light levels in the chamber have played with your dark adaptation, but you manage to catch the little greep wisp, absent for a bit, appear subtly, dancing along the lines of the runes within the glyph, highlighting the arcane lettering. It then winks out.
Only with Tynan's assistance does Mortimer manage to catch the outline of the glyph, traced in overlapping circles on the ceiling of the next chamber's entrance.
It may be a trick of the light, as darkness and light strive to overcome one another, but it almost looked like the glyph began to pulse a little, as various party members got closer to being directly under it.
Tynan listens to everything Ascaria says about the glyph, then attempts to disable it.
Your eyes trace the runes weaved into the glyph, and you almost find the place where a majority of the magics coursing through magical protection intersect. Severing the intersection should do it, yes. Your first pass, however, fails to nick it exactly. The glyph still pulses dangerously.
"Almost got it... let me give it one more shot."
Uh-oh...
Tynan does his best, but the glyph refuses to deactivate under the quiet man's machinations. At least the glyph didn't activate...

"Okay, yeah, that's a good idea, but I don't want to fight about it. It's possible...yeah, these are nice" Solrisa examines a bigger chunk. "Yeah, maybe. But you can't try to shove it down my throat."
Confused, Mortimer scratches the back of his head. Oh, right! Like the Fimboe! He hands Eri a silk hankerchief so he can clean up the remains of the cheese on his face. "Sorry about all that! ...or maybe you'd rather do that spell thingy to clean up," he says to him.
He continues, addressing Sol. "That Evil Spirit Naga put a nasty spell on me and Eri. I assure you, we were confused under enchantment and we are not normally prone to attacking each other -- or friends at all. The same thing happened to Tynan back in the spider room where we found Scout, remember? I would never dream of fighting you or forcing you into anything against your own will."
He picks up Ascaria, and starts to lift him to the glyph, then pulls him back closer to himself. He yo-yos Ascaria three times like this before stopping, placing Ascaria back on the ground.
"Hang on a second, that thing is winking -- or something -- everytime one of us gets closer to it. I think something might happen if one of us stands right under it. Do any of you think it'll explode -- or open a door? Maybe we don't want to disable it?" He shrugs, magic (among other things) being something completely beyond him.
”huh? What? What did I do?” Eri drops the remains of the snake. Oh, shoot, sorry Mort.”
Eri tries to avoid Mort's eyes as he shuffles around trying to be useful.

He picks up Ascaria, and starts to lift him to the glyph, then pulls him back closer to himself. He yo-yos Ascaria three times like this before stopping, placing Ascaria back on the ground.
"No, no, no, up there Mort, up there! I can't see it clearly from down here, and I need to see it clearly. Now please, up there, let me worry about setting it off."
S@!$, I hope I don't set it off by reading it...
He grins reassuringly to Mort, and casts Read Magic. When Mort lifts him up, he tries to read the glyph. If need be, he also casts Comprehend Languages, though he's confident it should be one he already knows.
"That Evil Spirit Naga put a nasty spell on me and Eri. I assure you, we were confused under enchantment and we are not normally prone to attacking each other -- or friends at all."
Solrisa smiles at Mort, her first smile in a while.
"Mort, I'm not mad that you were fighting, but that you're wasting good cheese. When you fight, you shouldn't be wasting food," Solrisa explains. "I like cheese," Solrisa explains as if it were perfectly clear and normal and obvious feelings to have. Because cheese.
While others work on the strange glyph, Solrisa retreats back to keep an eye on things as Tynan is at the front.
The runes etched into the glyph resemble the language of undercommon, but the inherent magics set to conceal meaning blur the lines, and confuse the eye. You do, however, understand its meaning, if not its skeleton of words. This is a Glyph of Warding, set against any creature that is not by nature, evil. It is set to punish anyone else passing underneath with acid. Standing directly below it, anyone in a 5' distance should enjoy its dispensations.
Ascaria leans in to peer at the rune, and withdraws, pushing Mort back with his arms and his words, "Back up. This is a glyph of warding, a sometimes powerful magic that'll burn anyone not evil with acid if they pass by."
He looks around, "I don't see a way around it though, so someone needs to set it off and hope for the best I think."
He shrugs, "Might as well be me huh?"
"Everyone stand back, it's got a bit of a radius."
Assuming everyone backs off, Ascaria will rush the rune, like tearing off a bandage, hit it all at once.
(+2 vs glyphs, symbols, or other magical writings)
Solrisa moves up as Ascaria steps into the blast, her hands covering her mouth and eyes, trying to avoid seeing the fresh gnome ceviche.
If and after Ascaria is healed and hopefully not dead, Solrisa will offer to take the back for a bit, allowing someone else to lead.
The valiant gnome bolts forward, bringing a rain of acid from the ceiling, none of which Ascaria seems to want to avoid, as he takes the full brunt of the burn.
The glyph explodes, then fades from sight. There to your right, entering the next area, stands something of a monolithic doorway. To each side, alien, octopoid heads with tentacles hanging to the floor, set in white marble, with purple veining. Two pure white marble doors are also swung back, and open, though the feeling it generates is anything but welcoming.
All is quiet, following the blast of the glyph, until the sound of slick resonates through this new, strange chamber. Three creatures slide down the sides of the walls, and into view. Six purple tentacles support a bulbous alien eye dripping with a viscous slime. Rarely blinking, the star-shaped pupil moves rapidly about, scanning the area. Two longer tentacles end in razor-sharp claws and undulate hypnotically in the air around it. They seem quite interested in your arrival. One of them almost appears to try and nuzzle the gnome.
These delightful creatures are Octopins, lawful evil, created by magic and breeding for sentinel purposes. 1 question for every 5 above 24...
Round 1
Solrisa double moves up, drawing her sword as she does.
Round 1, Init 23
Seeing one of the bizarre creatures has closed on Ascaria, he rushes forward, eying the tentacled mass for any weaknesses. Tynan stabs at the creature, and tries to taunt it away from Ascaria.
"Over here you tentacled freak!"
HP:52/52
Saves:Fort 8, Ref 12, Will 5
As Tynan approaches, the closest tentacled creature lazily strikes out.
Tynan does manage to draw bluish blood from its slippery hide.
The snicker snails slowly approach, and all three of them introduce themselves in various ways. The one closest to the doorway moves gently up, and attacks the gnome, twice, while the furthest closes the distance, and attacks once.
Meanwhile, the bleeding creature turns its full wrath upon Tynan.
And then the creatures move their eyes across all those still conscious.

As an immediate action, prior to the third attack, Ascaria drops all life links.
Ascaria watches as the creatures come out of thin air, shifting awfully fast on their tendril-appendages. He watches as they land attack after attack on his poor form. As he collapses under the load, he thinks, I don’t like the front!

Well, that's a relief! "I agree, Sol, but at least it was just the Fimboe. That should be fairly easy to replace around these parts."
"Everyone stand back, it's got a bit of a radius."
Wait! What?! What's he doing?! "Ascaria!!! WAIT --" but before he can move, **POOF**, Ascaria springs the acid trap.
Six purple tentacles [ ... ]
"What are they!?! Are those even from this planet?! What's happened to Ascaria?!" Why did it take so long to say that?!

Tynan shirks a snap of a slimy claw, hitting the closest slug. Solrisa moves swiftly into battle from well behind everyone else. Eri feels the first effects of the creatures' strange, slowing sap, but he's quick enough to burn all three.
Mortimer takes his sweet time reaching for a tanglefoot bag, while Ascaria fails to slow his own bleeding.
Round 2, Init 23
Tynan slowly stabs at the attacking beast, striking it again. With his multitude of wounds, Tynan takes a 5' step back in hopes of living a bit longer.

The cephalopods march, ever closer, their actions now, by contrast, almost seem lightning quick, as the whole of the party slows painfully.
Green and Blue introduce themselves to Solrisa, both claws seeking to rip and rend. Perhaps the shiny armor attracts them.
Red moves forward, uninterested in seeing meat beat feet, so lashes out at Tynan with its lengthy claws, staggering the man, but not dropping him fully.
Round 3, Init 22
Solrisa attacks the blob that is green.

Under Solrisa's sunder, Green collapses, its bluish blood beginning to mix with the gnome's red.

Mortimer pitches the bag at blue.
"Get to the gnome!"
The alien thing bloops out of the way for the goo that would seek to nail it to the floor. It can't avoid being covered in the tanglefoot bag's contents, however.
The creatures have no weaknesses you can think of, aside from their being easier to hit thanks to slimy hide, but they are immune to electricity, for the rubbery quality they exhibit.
Round 3, Init 23
Taking yet another strike from the tentacled creatures, and barely hanging onto life, Tynan reluctantly moves away from the battle, hoping the others fare better than he did. He only manages to put another fifteen feet between himself and the beasts, but hopes that will take him out of harm's way.

Tynan finds good reason in retreat. Solrisa ends Green, bringing the odds around, a little. Eri fires off two magical rays, and easily hits the purplish thing.
Mortimer turns the tables, gunking Blue with a tanglefoot bag. Ascaria stabilizes while almost suffocating under the weight of Blue.
Blue remains in place, taking swings at Solrisa, while guarding its fresh kill. The tanglefoot bag's contents do their job, preventing a sure hit from fully connecting.
Red moves up, throwing a single claw at Eri. Something in its movements suggests some strange frustration, as Tynan slips out of reach.

The foam bubbles a little, flecking in and out of his mouth as he struggles for breath under the monstrosity above him.
Ascaria continues to rest.

The alien thing bloops out of the way for the goo that would seek to nail it to the floor.
Shoot! I knew I should have thrown the sinker! Might have plastered poor Ascaria to the ground, though.
Mortimer watches the Blob (R) inch forward. That's right, come to me.... He takes a five foot step and throws a straight punch.
