Calain dismisses his rage and leans over his Lucerne Hammer as he catches his breath.
That's one I no longer owe you Goblin. Try to avoid snot piles in future
The big human smiled at the Goblin's response. He knew he'd caught the thing in a trap.
Ahh, so if you were doing your job correctly, the blob would not have noticed you, correct? Or if dying quietly was your plan I'll wait for you to signal me for help when you are being eaten next time, lead on good scout. This noisy human will remain back and wait for the creatures burp to signal me forward.The human was actually beaming for once, thoroughly enjoying his own joke.
Though it was said with genuine humor and only partly to offend the little goblin. At least the thing clearly had some pride

"Hey Noisy, did you break wind?" Poke Poke says to the bard. He leans over to Dr. Tes and says under his breath "And Poke Poke thought the long shanks smelled bad.

Guess we should have talked about this before landing on the property owner's front lawn...But what are we trying to do here? Ask the owner politely for directions outta the swamp? Information on possible kidnappers? Or ask the name of their homebuilder? Swamp chic is in nowadays

We need to find Ms Turner. She was taken by force bit we can't automatically assume she is here. Shall we send the bard to the door to make enquiries? He could at least keep them busy with his mouth while we spread out and access any threat?

"Say hi, have the sneaks in place, and well keep watch a bit back with bows and blades. I mean, if someone friendly lives inside, great. But I kinda doubt it given our situation. "
Bradan nocks an arrow and tries to get a good line on the front door.

Beorn cautiously walks towards the house, he raps on the door once he arrives. In the meantime, the two sneaks proceed forward. Using what little ground cover there is to hide they each hide behind tumbleweed.

Poke Poke stares at the bard with an exasperated look as he goes clattering by. "Idiots! We are surrounded by idoits." Poke Poke says to Dr. Tes in a hushed tone as the orc starts to bellow "So much for strategy."

Save the optimism, Barrister Poke! That means there is a chance we portal out of this swamp... Too good to be true!

CASTING
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (spider web)
EFFECT
Range medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Effect webs in a 20-ft.-radius spread
Duration 10 min./level (D)
Saving Throw Reflex negates; see text; Spell Resistance no
DESCRIPTION
Web creates a many-layered mass of strong, sticky strands. These strands trap those caught in them. The strands are similar to spiderwebs but far larger and tougher. These masses must be anchored to two or more solid and diametrically opposed points or else the web collapses upon itself and disappears. Creatures caught within a web become grappled by the sticky fibers. Attacking a creature in a web doesn’t cause you to become grappled.
Anyone in the effect’s area when the spell is cast must make a Reflex save. If this save succeeds, the creature is inside the web but is otherwise unaffected. If the save fails, the creature gains the grappled condition, but can break free by making a combat maneuver check or Escape Artist check as a standard action against the DC of this spell. The entire area of the web is considered difficult terrain. Anyone moving through the webs must make a combat maneuver check or Escape Artist check as part of their move action, with a DC equal to the spell’s DC. Creatures that fail lose their movement and become grappled in the first square of webbing that they enter.
If you have at least 5 feet of web between you and an opponent, it provides cover. If you have at least 20 feet of web between you, it provides total cover.
The strands of a web spell are flammable. A flaming weapon can slash them away as easily as a hand brushes away cobwebs. Any fire can set the webs alight and burn away one 5-foot square in 1 round. All creatures within flaming webs take 2d4 points of fire damage from the flames.
Web can be made permanent with a permanency spell. A permanent web that is damaged (but not destroyed) regrows in 10 minutes.

Calain tries to hit the tumbleweed swarm but he misses with his attack. It's harder to hit than he realizes.

Bradan you hit the tangleweed swarm but it doesn't look like it did any damage.
Entrap (Ex) At the beginning of the swarm’s turn, all creatures inside its space must make a DC 14 Strength or Escape Artist check or become entrapped. If a creature fails a second saving throw against this ability, it is completely entrapped by tangleweed vines, cannot breathe (forcing it to hold its breath or suffocate), and takes 1d3 points of
damage at the beginning of its turn.
Tangleweed swarms entangle creatures they encounter and twist their vines to lash down one of their opponents, at which point they begin to strangle the them.
Traits: A swarm has no clear front or back and no discernible anatomy, so it is not subject to critical hits or flanking. A swarm made up of Tiny creatures takes half damage from slashing and piercing weapons. A swarm composed of Fine or Diminutive creatures is immune to all weapon damage. Reducing a swarm to 0 hit points or less causes it to break up, though damage taken until that point does not degrade its ability to attack or resist attack. Swarms are never staggered or reduced to a dying state by damage. Also, they cannot be tripped, grappled, or bull rushed, and they cannot grapple an opponent.
A swarm is immune to any spell or effect that targets a specific number of creatures (including single-target spells such as disintegrate), with the exception of mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, morale effects, patterns, and phantasms) if the swarm has an Intelligence score and a hive mind. A swarm takes half again as much damage (+50%) from spells or effects that affect an area, such as splash weapons and many evocation spells.

Aggrah will web the closest swarm dc16
The web shoots out at the tangleweed swarm. You'll either get Dr Tes or Beorn in the web. I assume you will pick Dr Tes since his refex should be higher. The mad did not take the grid lines well but you would be able to get far enough away that a casting defensively is not necessary.
