You guys've got a tapir by the tail....
The tapir woman shrieks from her cell. A long string of Vudran curses, made even more indecipherable by the baffling caused by her iron tomb.
The drow's alive, but he's incoherent.
The right half of his face is drooping. You attain the shore, no problem.
You turn around, and the drow is wearing a dwarven wedding dress of pink silk chased with hundreds of pearls.Still incoherent.
Stig makes the shore. He hears crickets chirping; there is a disconcerting music to their symphony. They play music, these crickets, violinning on their legs; it is not just animal sounds.
Visions of a dusky brown man, head wrapped in cloth in a cave before a fire fueled by pungent camel dung; scrawling a book in thick lugubrious ink on camelhide.....tittering, and leaning from side to side, and saying, "Lala.....Lala....." as if begging for help.
Right on.
"OK. Now... Gittik opens the coffin and then Beldan stabs her on three. One... Two... THREE!!"
Nothing doing. She takes the shot of Altai's battlewand in stride.
Beldan's got the goods on her enough that she's considered flanked though.
"OK, me no use stabby weapon, so maybe me just RAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!"
<rage on, jumps in the iron maiden with her and attempts to grapple>
The tapirwoman gouges and misses with her kukri....
Gittik, however, is not capable of grappling the larger creature.
Beldan; Elgan; Oso left.
If he can get in a good thrust past Gittik’s raging form, Beldan will move up and attack the six breasted freak.

"Whoa."

It's about 20 by 20 feet of sandy beach; bordering a longish lagoon that heads north to the sea cave entrance that was walled in by fog, and south towards ???. At the southwest wall, there's the hallway you and the drow initially came in. The lagoon is walled in, generally 30 or so feet wide.

Beldan thrusts past the grappling hobbit; from the left of the rakshasa, he's able to give her one in the spleen and over into the liver. Copious blood running on the floor of the iron maiden, spraying the walls.
She stands...Elgan's up.
Oso calls on Kelanen to give him a magical sword, not a bastard but a rapier and then he casts spiritual weapon.
When the magical blade appears Oso points at the creature over Beldan's head.

Aww, futz.....the spell doesn't work. The holy rapier fizzes out...
Do you have an actual rapier in your hand though? Or is it just the spiritual weapon that is one?
Just trying to make sure; I didn't know this was gonna be real tough....you guys are pretty tough...

Stiggy has to row; the drow is no longer coherent. He's pretty much comatose. He rows on, and the lagoon goes on and on through a long wide hallway of cavernway. He rows for a goodly half an hour.
Up ahead, finally, the cavern opens up into a wide underwater lake. There's an islet in the middle; he can hear a fluting music coming from a single solitary form on the islet.
Dancing green embers like great fireflies light the promontory in the middle of the lagoon. It's about 250 feet across the lagoon to the islet.
Oh yeah.....Beldan's still up.
Elganbear shuffles back and forth slightly with anxiety and frustration. He obviously wants to help, but can't see a way to squeeze in to help. PLus teh noises from the door are making him nervous, and he doesn't want to leave his post and see his friends swarmed by a horde of killer insects.
HE settles for making boxing motions in the air with his huge paws, encouraging his teammates to victory!
;)
"YOU LIE DOWN, PIGGY B&~%~!"
Checking....
The iron maiden is at b1.
gittik is at a2, oso at b2, and bel moved d2 to c2, so he can unleash a full attack.
Altai's at c3 on the altar, pip's at b3 right behind oso, and elgan's at ef 3-4, covering the door at f2.
So beldan gets the remainder of his full attack.
Then it's.....the rakshasa, and then a new round; during which Gittik can try to grapple the rakshasa...
Beldan stabs twice more in close succession.
One question; did Oso make the rapier good?
One question; did Oso make the rapier good?
She's dead.
At that point, the door at f2 busts in.
Two short green men rush in to e2 and f2, clicking their woodpecker sounds with their tongues at high speed.
Elgan gets an aoo on one of them, they stab him with glowing knives that seem to be extruded from their hands. One hits; Elgan takes 6 h.p. in damage.
There is also a "bamf" sound, and a repugnant stench of brimstone as a cloud of gouty smoke appears above.
15 feet up in the air, at c4, is a mindflayer in black leather wizard's cyberpunk zootsuit. He drops two more of the little green men, at d3 and b4;
one stabs at Altai with the glowing knife, stabbing the mage for 6 h.p.
The other stabs Pip, for 3 h.p.
Both Altai and Pip also get an aoo against their respective attacker, as it jumps to attack them.
NEW ROUND!!!
Gittik doesn't have to grapple the dead rakshasa if he doesn't want to.
Oh, and group's attack....duuh.....
... a mindflayer in black leather wizard's cyberpunk zootsuit...
"Gack! What in the Nine Hells?" Altai jumps off the altar and zaps the flying illithid with burning acid. "Dibs on the 'flayer's overcoat!"
I was just thinking you'd dig the overcoat.
The arrow strikes home on the illithid in the air above you;
oh....the square c2 is occupied by Beldan; d2, c4, and d4 are open.
right on...
Kinda proud of that bit there...
“Ha! Got her … What? Oh, crap …”
Beldan pulls his rapier free from his furry foe and moves to flank one of the little green guys with Elgan-bear. Stab, stab, stab goes his rapier.
The vegepygmy falls, stabbed three times in the head and upper chest by the rogue.
Gittik, Oso, Elgan, and Pip are up to bat.
:)
Elgan bear, taken aback at the sudden swift movements of the intruders, takes a scratch from the strange glowing blade which makes him howl in surprise more than pain. His eyes narrow, and turn red. Then he roars and wades into the animated vegetables with wild abandon that would make Gittik proud!
They move so fast. Faster than rats, flashing out of the way. The hasted bear, though, moves pretty damn quick too, managing to land three blows to his opponent; the vegepygmy stands, though oozing blood or whatever passes for blood in these notmen, aye, blood or ichor, the color of split pea soup.
Gittik; Oso; and Pip are up to bat.
