The blightspawn avoids some of the goo from the tanglefoot bag. But it still flies on, attacking Doc as it goes.

Not seeing the Blightspawn but the direction it went, Ezranadir casts a fireball targeting into the shrubs so as to get the edge extending out from the group but not including them but engulfing it.

Frantino is concerned at yet another wound on Doc, he doesn't look good. He'll move forward next to Doc and ready an action to attack if the bug comes within range of his long arms. (I don't see which direction the blightspawn went after attacking Doc, Frantino will want to establish a location between the mosquito and Doc.) He'll spare a quick glance at Doc to make sure he stowed the wand of cure light in the agreed upon location in case we need to access it.

"Ayita, we need your help here, you may need to heal some of Doc's wounds!" Did the bug move its aura far enough away from Ayita for the slow effect to fade?

Hatfield cries out, "Yeowch!"

@FRANTINO - the blightspawn moved into the trees northeast of Doc.

@FRANTINO - GREAT catch! Ayita is just barely out of the aura. So...

@AYITA - you are slowed for an additional: 1d3 ⇒ 3 rounds.

Ezranadir moves over and casts Resistance on Doc, granting a +1 resistance bonus on his saves for 1 minute.

Ayita asks Yazhi to move into a spot that might help protect Doc and others, if the bug moves too close. Yazhi readies an attack for if the thing flies within range.

Ayita has her earthbreaker out, and readies an attack if she gets a chance too.

"MORE FIREBALLS!!! WHERE IS THAT DAMN WAND?!?!?"

Nasir grabs another tanglefoot bag from the bag of holding and readies it to attack the Blightspawn when it is visible again.

Nasir grabs another tanglefoot bag from the bag of holding and readies it to attack the Blightspawn when it is visible again.

@NASIR As I was preparing the blightspawn's action, I realized that it has constant freedom of movement. So... it's movement isn't impeded, but it does take the entangled penalties from the first bag. HOWEVER, the entangled condition doesn't stack.

I say this now, because you may want to restate your action, as the tanglefoot bag won't impede its movement or double the penalties.

Guess I should have asked before but does Doc have a Cloak of Resistance? If so then the Resistance spell would be moot.

he does have a cloak of resistance

You've mentioned this wand of fireball and that perhaps I have it. I don't remember receiving a wand. If I did, I didn't write it down and am not sure why Ezrandir wouldn't have it. :)

Ezranadir wouldn't mind keeping it & could definitely use it but you guys had already split up the loot from Rodric's Cove when I was just joining. It had 7 charges.

Roscoe takes Wand here.

Well I'll be darned! Sorry about that--I somehow didn't write it down.

[RECON] Seeing that the tanglefoot bag did nothing, Nasir picks up his scimitar and readies to attack a foe that moves aggressively into range.

The blightspawn flies past Nasir and reaches its long proboscis out and tries to sting him!

@NASIR Flyby Sting: 1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 11 - 2 = 17 MISS

@NASIR No chance to attack. It remains 10ft away during its attack.

It slides into the trees and bushes effortlessly, hiding from view.

Perception DC to pinpoint it: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 4 - 2 = 20

As the blightspawn flies over the group, Ayita feels a torpor come over her again. An aura of stagnation saps her strength and speed.

@AYITA you are in its aura again. As the only PC that hasn't saved against it, you need to save again. Will save DC16. Failure means you're slowed again inside the aura. If you save, your 3 rounds of slow continue until it finishes.

Did it fly within 10' of Frantino and his readied attack with long arms?

Just in case, I'll roll to save time:
Readied +2 halberd w/ PA: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15 Miss

If it flies into reach then he'll also provoke an AoO as he flies out of that square.
AoO +2 halberd w/ PA: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28, damage: 1d10 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19 Miss chance: 1d100 ⇒ 67%

Did it fly within 10' of Frantino and his readied attack with long arms?

Just in case, I'll roll to save time:
Readied [dice=+2 halberd w/ PA]1d20 + 9 Miss

If it flies into reach then he'll also provoke an AoO as he flies out of that square.
AoO [dice=+2 halberd w/ PA]1d20 + 9, [dice=damage]1d10 + 11 [dice=Miss chance]1d100%

It didn't. It has learned to fear the long arm of Frantino Kaddren!

Ayita will attempt: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

[dice=Ayita will attempt]1d20+4

Fail. Don't forget your Curse. -4 penalty on attack rolls, saves, ability checks, and skill checks. Note that the Curse is permanent. At least until you get a Remove Curse cast on you.

Result of your failed save is just more of the same Slow effect. When you leave the aura, it takes 1d3 rounds to wear off. Unless you enter the aura again. In which case you will roll another save.

Perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (15) + 15 = 30

Frustrated, Frantino tracks the mosquito as it flies around just out of reach. How high up is it?

He moves through the party then into the underbrush near the bug. If it's within reach he'll strike, otherwise he'll ready another attack.

The blightspawn is 20ft off the ground, resting upon a tree branch. It glares down at Frantino.

Frustrated that there is not much he can do against this foe, Nasir continues to ready himself to attack when the opportunity presents itself.

"Use the entire wand if we have to but keep fireballing that thing!!!!"

Finally realizing he's the one Nasir keeps referring to with the fireball wand, Roscoe draws it from his belt.

"I forgot I had this thing!" he exclaims.

Tapping it on his leg a couple of times, he tries to figure out its activation mechanism.

Use magic device: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17
dmg: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 6, 6, 2) = 21 wands are earliest level you can cast the spell, so 5d6, right?

He uses his Bonded Item (Bow) to cast Magic Weapon on Nasir's Bow.
