![]() The Spitter of Nightmares opens its frog-like maw and lets forth an undulating, resonant call, deep and primal.... 50% probability (01-50) of summoning a second hydrodaemon to its side....1d100 ⇒ 24....succeeds! A foul, green mist coalesces in the hallway behind the Spitter of Nightmares, as a portal opens to vomit forth Gorgrubbub, his warty brother.... In Abyssal: Hail, brother of mine! Have a moment to spread some woe on Earth? ![]()
![]() Meanwhile, upstairs: The Spitter of Nightmares passes by a large office room on the north side of the third floor where 6 more Morays hear and heed its croaking call to arms, bringing its force to 14 Morays and a barghest.... It comes to a large conference room, where 4 faceless stalkers and 4 sinspawn are feasting on the torn-asunder remains of a human victim.... To arms, slugs! Time for feasting later--plenty of fresh meat downstairs! Intruders are in The Silver Tower! croaks the hydrodaemon.... The aberrations rise from their gruesome meal and wipe blood and gore from their faces as they join the growing parade of enemies preparing to sally down the stairs and attack The FOs.... ![]()
![]() The hydrodaemon halts. Eh? What's that? You smell one? The daemon sniffs the air and peers with dead-white eyes at the shadows of the work station indicated by the barghest.... Perception vs DC 45 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34 fails.... You cowardly cur! Did they so cow you that you fear shadows now? Come! Waste no more of my time, or I'll wear your cowardly hide as a bib whilst I feast on your flesh and pick my teeth with your bones! ![]()
![]() In the open office upstairs, where the panicky barghest has just yapped out its warning of "intruders downstairs" having killed the Great Kraken, the Spitter of Nightmares chuckles.... In Abyssal: If the intruders this four-legged goblin-turd barks of truly killed the Great Kraken, they might be these "Fierce Ones" I've heard so many monster tongues wagging about lately.... I've been spoiling for a good rumble for eons, it feels like.... I'll gather me chums and see just how fierce they truly be.... To the barghest, in Common: Heel, barghest! You shall join me when I avenge your fallen master against these intruders! Thereafter, I shall see to your care and utilization as your new master, understand? |
