Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
If the goo is already dead after my turn, can I move to the giant thing and add the kick? If so, do that.

Spoiler: Ratfolk Lucky featureI got a natural 1 for my hypothetical alternative action.
In the odd chance it does in fact become my actual action, I’d like to benefit from the “Lucky” racial feature of ratfolk. Here’s the reroll: (1d20+5)[25]

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
Sakuya struggles to free herself but doesn't succeed. At the same time she says.
I've heard of these creatures from the other druids. They're called cave fishers. They're sometimes used as guards but they're not always effective since they usually don't attack unless they outnumber the enemy. I think we should try to get past them before more of them come.Last edited by Smilex; 2020-11-28 at 12:25 PM.

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
Rik furiously stabs the jelly, pushing the spear through the center of the creature. A mighty strike, Rik almost pushes his hands into the thing with the power of the thrust. To get the spear out again, he crushes the jelly further with his boot, causing bits of ochre goop to fly around.
The Ochre Jelly rotates again, being driven away from Rik through the sheer power of his violence. The jelly lashes a pseudopod at Oren, pushing on him with all of it's mass.
Spoiler: OOCOren receives 15 crushing damage and 7 acid damage.
Oren falls down and the ooze moves on his lower body.
Polari shoots a ray of freezing magical power towards the ceiling. He hits the cave fisher straight into the creatures head. The creature reacts surprisigly. It reacts by curling in on itself like a rolly polly. It releases the sticky strand and the half-mraow druid is free!
Alissog sees her friend fall down and start being devoured. She smashes her maul into the center of the jelly, the space between Oren's legs. The creature falls apart. It's parts flying in all directions. The jelly is a danger to no one.
The three cave fishers above the fight all shoot their strands. Two of them miss completely. One of them shoots and hits Rik. The larger cave fisher skitters closer and snaps it's claws. You see that while the smaller fishers have a thin shell and are obviously not mature, this one has a thicker exoskeleton.
Spoiler: OOCRik is grappled. The strand is strong. Attempts to get free are at a disadvantage.
You can hear another noise similar to the one the larger cave fisher made with it's hind legs. This one is louder and it comes from somewhere behind you.
Sakuya moves in on the people fighting and touches Oren while summoning the healing powers of nature.
Spoiler: OOCCure wounds, 8 points healed. Oren is concious.
Nodovico dashes north on the ledge, under the large cave fisher and beyond.Last edited by Smilex; 2020-11-28 at 02:09 PM.

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
Round One:
Keeping a safe distance from the Ooze, Geronimo starts his comedy routine:
"You, Ooze! You look like something a child would dig out of its nose. Maybe you should go slither back to Uglyville!"
That joke was magically charged with the spell Vicious Mockery.
Spoiler: Psychic Damage(1d4)[3]
Round two:
Geronimo makes another joke at the Ooze's expense.
"You, Ooze! Did you lose the reincarnation lottery or something? You don't even have a brain. You aren't worthy of even being called an Ochre Ooze. You are just a mediocre jelly!"
That joke was also magically charged with the spell Vicious Mockery like the first spell was.
Spoiler: Psychic Damage(1d4)[4]
Round 3:
"You, Ooze! We have a traditional goblin song about a man named Mr. Block who wouldn't join a union, but I bet even he wasn't as mentally dense as you!"
That joke was also magically charged with the spell Vicious Mockery like the first and second spell was.
Spoiler: Psychic Damage(1d4)[4]

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
The first joke hurt the ochre jelly's feelings and it clearly wept a few tears before expiring.
The second joke causes the cave fisher that tangled Rik to make a weird screeching noise. It curls up like the first cave fisher and this one too releases the filament that's attached to Rik. Rik is now free again to move as normally.

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
Realizing the only enemy blocking their passage is gone, Rik decides to make a run for it. It would be hard to damage the things in the ceiling and they have already shown how dangerous they can be.
"Everybody! The way is clear. Let's move!"
He dashes to the exit of the room.

Oren feels the warm embrace of the after-life “...Beautiful wheels of angel-cheese…” He is still mumbling when the healing spell shocks him back into action.
As his vision clears, the rat fighter notices the ooze is now inert, but there are still the dangerous ceiling crab-creatures. He gets up and tries to catch up to the rest of the party.

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
Rik runs as fast as he can though his small feet don't carry him as fast as the others. Ooh, if only I had finished my advanced class in unarmored fast movement! Rik still manages to run past the largest cave fisher.
Polari shoots at one of the smaller ceiling crabs while carefully moving past the little ones. The ray shoots just path the creature's tail though.
Alissog helps Oren move a little bit faster, helping him up and together they move ahead, reaching a position where Alissog's just below the large cave fisher.
The large cave fisher is surprisinly close to the half-giant. It reaches with it's claws and snips twice at Alissog's head but the moves are clumsy, easy to dodge. The pincers do seem dreadfully large though and Alissog finds new faith in divine luck that's clearly protecting her. The creature moves past Alissog though, it knows it's young have been threatened, and it moves onto the wall next to Polari.
Spoiler: OOCAlissog can reach it and gets an attack of opportunity when it's moving past.
The two lesser cave fishers hit better. ONe of them shoots a glue strand at Polari's thigh, almost making him stumble midstep. The other one moves a bit toward Oren, but shoots the sticky fibrils at Sakuya, hitting her in her chest.
Nodovico is far and ahead of all at this point and rushes into a smaller cavern which the large cave fisher clearly couldn't get into.
A ball of flame appears in Sakuya's hands and she throws it at the young fisherling. The ball sizzles the creature's head. Once more an arachnid curls up and leaves Sakuya in peace. She moves, pushing past Polari and next to Oren.
Finally the goblin bard, he scratches his head and moves next to Polari. He directs a wicked look to the skies and yells. Stop there! Any more of that horseplay and I'll make glue out of you!
The cave fisher reels at the psychic assault and lets go of the strand in Polari's back. The creature curls up in shame and fear.
Looking back toward the direction you came from Geronimo says
Let's go. I think I can see another large one coming.
Spoiler: OOCRik, Alissog, Oren and Sakuya can all reach safety of the small cave in one dash move. Polari and Geronimo are a little bit behind and will need another move after that. Yet they only really need to move past the cave fisher that will get attacks of opportunity.

Polari pulls himself out of the remaining strands and ducks around the large crab's claws as he tries to escape.
"Come on, Geronimo. Let's get out of here."
Spoiler: OOCThey both disengage and then move 30' away. Geronimo is a goblin so he can still throw another insult or cast a spell.
Since we don't have maps, we probably wouldn't leave the sorcerer and bard in melee while the others just dash away.

Replying to Alissog “I appreciate the offer, but save your healing for later. My gut tells me there are more creatures waiting for their turn to chomp on us.”
Spoiler: Turn 4 action (ignore if inappropriate)With two party members still in the danger zone, Oren will try to shoot an arrow at any creature that threatens either Polari or Geronimo.
Longbow attack: (1d20+5)[6], damage (1d8+3)[4] piercing

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
Concentrating on getting to safety, all of you eventually get to the small tunnel that leads forward. Nodovico didn't luckily rush further on but stayed to wait for the others.
In this tunnel there's a clear track of blood, not something from the past few days, but not ancient either. The drops of blood lead forward some hundred meters and then into a small side corridor. You hear soft singing from inside, a hoarse voice of a mraow is singing a lullaby.
Nodovico indicates that the path to your actual goal is forward, not to the sidecave.Last edited by Smilex; 2020-11-30 at 02:16 PM.

AC: 14 | HP: 8/13 | HD: 1/1d10
Quiver: 19 arrows
PP: 12 PInv: 10 PIns: 12
Conditions: peckish
Still catching his breath from the battle, Oren asks “Did anyone manage to catch any crab legs? We can boil them with seaweed or roast them in a campfire. Hmm. Delicious…”
After listening to Nodovico, he adds:
“I understand your concern to press forward. But I think we should investigate the sidecave where the song is coming from. It could be a stranded traveller in need of help...”
Oren wants to go to the side cave, but only if everyone else agrees. If the party prefers to move on forward, the rat fighter will go along. His notion of strength in numbers overrides his curiosity.

While Polari has found the plotting of the mraow to be too much, he thinks we need to find out if this mraow is ok. We can't leave a person in the caves with the spider-crabs or something worse. While he is scared, he knows that we need to try to help.

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
A voice from the side cave yells
Is there somebody there?
The singing stops.
There's some speaking you can't quite make out.
Then you hear someone walking toward you from the darkness.
An extremely thin female mraow in corsair clothes appears from the side passage.
Holy Plot! I can't believe it. Have you been sent to rescue us? I'm afraid you've come too late to save Galdocio though. He died four nights ago. It's just me and Padinho now.

No need to brush the newcomers off so quickly. Polari keeps to the back while he talks in case this is still a trap.

Re: Council of spiders-Caverns of Thracia-Rappan Athuk IC
Oh. We were looking for Chexxa too. I thought it was just a small outpost rather than a city. Shows what we knew.
She waves you to follow her to the sidecave.
We were starting a fighting against cave fishers but suddenly Remilia and some of her gnoll servants attacked us in the back. To the cauldrons with her, I say. Everyone else was wounded and their wounds got infected with spores of some kind.
In the side cave there's six obviously dead mraow in a pile. They've got a nice assortment of gear on them.
Spoiler: OOCIf you dare to pick up spore-infested gear you can pick up a new set of armor (any normal armor) or a new normal weapon (any) from this pile.
There's another mraow who you hope is dead since there's a number of capped mushrooms growing from him. He's wearing a first mate's uniform and a courier's satchel as well as a nice-looking scimitar on his belt.
Finally there's a male mraow who looks equally malnourished as the lady who's talked with you so far. His face has been burned and his eyes are bleeding gaps. He's lying down and breathing difficult.
Do you have any food or water?
The female mraow asks.
