sneak attack: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 3) = 11

Moving to where he could see one of the spiders, Von-Dai cast a spell and covered the spider in sparkles.

Casting glitterdust. DC 17 Will save or its blinded.

Dagger crit confirmation: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Sevrus lands a huge blow almost hitting a vital organ. Von walks in with his usual calm and hits both creatures with glitter who happen to be perfectly placed for such a spell.

Will: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Will: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

Both hiss but with so many eyes each manages to keep at least on free of dust.

Web Touch Sevrus: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23 DC 16

Web Touch Von: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13 DC 16

An entangled Creature can escape with a successful Escape Artist check or burst the web with a Strength check. Both are standard actions with a DC equal to 10 + 1/2 creature's HD + creature's Con modifier. Attempts to burst a web by those caught in it suffer a –4 Penalty.

power attack
to hit: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19 damage: 1d3 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12

Zeltyieli rushes forward, using the speed gifted to him by the Walker of Worlds, unraveling his scarf as he moves.

Bladed Scarf: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19 for 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

This is so inconvenient. I should have just kept the cloak, that would have made things better.

Von-Dai attempts to extract himself from the webbing.

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Marcus comes running in taking a big swing but it cracks off the carapace ineffectively. Zeltyieli runs in a second later to find the exact same thing happen.

The creature team up on the heavily armored man biting and clawing.

Sevrus will try to escape out of the web again, and just manages to break free.

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21

Von-Dai manages to fight his way out of the webbing, and then waits to see what aid his allies will require.

Zeltyieli says, "Weapon bounced right off.." and steps back, quickly casting a spell and conjuring a pure hammer of force.

(Spritual Weapon)

Spiritual Weapon: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 for 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Marcus will give another crack at it with his whip.

power attack
to hit: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16 damage: 1d3 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12

Von manages to get free but Severus remains hindered. The team attacks but is finding these creatures hard to hit.

The creatures continue their assault on the man with the loud weapon.

Attacks on Marcus:
Bite: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 131d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Zeltiyeli:

Does each spider take up a 5-foot square?

"Medic!" as he starts to flag a bit after the pile on by the spiders.

He does continue to lash out.

power attack]
to hit: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19 damage: 1d3 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Zeltyieli steps back carefully before casting a healing spell on Marcus, while his phantom warhammer tries to strike again.

Cure Serious (from Dispel): 3d8 + 5 ⇒ (5, 6, 8) + 5 = 24

Spiritual Weapon: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13 for: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 (Force)

Least useful spiritual weapon ever. Woo!

Von, yes they do. I cleaned up their size and position.

Sevrus will try to break free again

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29

Von-Dai moved to get a better look at one of the spiders, then cast a spell to create a pool of grease under it.

Casting grease, DC 17 Reflex or fall prone.

Severus manages to get free. Von apparates a mess of grease beneath one of the spiders causing its legs to splay out and it falls to the ground. The continued onslaught is met by equally tenacious armor were it not for Von Marcus would have landed his blow. Zeltyieli heals Marcus.

Ref: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

The spider stands up (AOO from Marcus) then tries to bite at the strong man.

Attacks on Marcus:
Bite: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 271d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

The other half of the pair joins in on the action.

claw: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 251d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Marcus is getting better at reading their attacks and is managing to avoid the creatures.

damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

sneak attack damage: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 4) = 10

The Spiritual Warhammer once again attacks uselessly, while Zeltyieli casts another healing spell on Marcus.

Spritual Weapon: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Cure Moderate (from Sound Burst): 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (4, 1) + 5 = 10

Again he'll try to hit the bug.

power attack
to hit: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19 damage: 1d3 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

Ok, that's just plain odd, same damned roll 3 times in a row

Von-Dai casts a spell, and a trio of missiles of force fly from his outstretched hand to strike the greased spider.

Magic Missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 4, 1) + 3 = 9

Sorry about the bad luck. I did some 5ft stepping for you guys that helps your position it caused 2 attacks that would have hit to miss. I think you would have noticed this possibility in person.

Sevrus feints with the first attack and lands the second.
Zeltyieli's spiritual weapon fails to make contact but he is able to heal Marcus. Von hits the damaged spider with three darts of force.

The spiders are not impressed by their loss of momentum.

Attacks on Marcus:
Bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 281d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 261d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Zeltyieli quickly casts another healing spell on Marcus, trying to keep him on his feet, as the Spiritual Weapon tries to strike again.

Cure Moderate (from Summon II): 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (4, 3) + 5 = 12

Von frowned. It was clear that these spiders weren't going down easy. He casts another spell, this time speeding up his allies' movements.

Cast haste.

"Ok, maybe that will help."

haste, power attack

Oh yeah, the dice love me

Sorry for my absence - PC issues

Sevrus stabs at the spider again, but only manages to hit it once

dagger: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

sneak attack: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 2) = 14

damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

sneak attack: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 2) = 11

Zeltyieli's spiritual weapon swings nearly hitting, but he recovers and heals his companion. Von causes his team to vibrate with kinetic energy, enhancing their speed and reflexes. Marcus continues to find the whip hard to use in this small space. Sevrus attacks in a flurry landing the third attack.

The spiders seem to be tiring landing a single bit on the agile well-armored whip users.

Attacks on Marcus:
Bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 281d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 151d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

[i]Sevrus attempts to stab the creature again.

sneak attack damage: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 3) = 9

Sevrus, are your to-hit rolls right? We're level 5, and assuming you have an 18 Dex, you should have +7 to hit, not +5, assuming no masterwork or magic weapons.

Von-Dai cast another spell, and hurled more bolts of force at the spider.

Magic Missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 3, 1) + 3 = 8

Two-weapon fighting, I believe

Spiritual Weapon: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Zeltyieli's seemingly useless hammer swings again while Zeltyieli keeps trying to keep Marcus on his feet.

Cure Light Wounds (from Protection from Evil): 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

This time Marcus gets a hit. Servus's moves have become predictable to the creature. Zeltyieli's hammer causes more cracks in his faith than in any enemy, but his healing is always welcome. Von finds a dependable spell in his repertoire and strikes with magic missile.

Even without flanking the spiders produce deep wounds in Marcus.

Attacks on Marcus:
Bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 261d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Zeltiyeli:

Zeltyieli winces as the hammer fades, That wasn't terribly helpful... Those energies would have been more useful as a healing spell.

Seeing Marcus' new wounds, he calls again on the Walker of Worlds, spending his most powerful spell to try to keep him on his feet.

Cure Serious (from Summon III): 3d8 + 5 ⇒ (8, 3, 3) + 5 = 19

"Thanks Zel, I'd be dead already if you weren't here. "

and he keeps trying to put the damned spider down.

Frustrated Sevrus will try attacking again

dagger: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

sneak attack: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 2) = 11

Von you are up.

Sorry, trying to figure out my next move.

Calling on the power stored within his arcane bond, Von-Dai hurls yet more bolts of force at one of the spiders.

Magic Missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 4, 1) + 3 = 12

Target whichever one is the most injured.

I put the attack on the characters to optimize the damage and movement.

Marcus manages to get another hit after getting healed again. Sevrus plunges her dagger in and kills the creature standing in front of her. The eight legs go limp and the creature clatters to the ground. Von strikes the remaining spider with his magic missiles.

The spider, in a fit a panicked survival, attacks Marcus again.

Attacks on Marcus:
Bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 261d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 301d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Zeltyieli casts another healing spell on Marcus, trying to ensure the spider doesn't take his companion with him in its death throes.

CLW (from Divine Favour): 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

I note one of the shots against Marcus in the flurry was a 20 - I assume that's a threat? Not that I have the magic left to heal a crit...

Von-Dai's staff glows and flies from his hand towards the remaining spider.

Hand of the Apprentice: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1
