R3T17: Fronaldo follows Xhan’s lead and attacks the construct he indicated. His high speed blade cuts it for 12 mod, more powerfully than expected, and then his second hit destroys Red!

R3T16: The remaining mithral cobra (Blue) snaps at the frustratinglyi fast Fronaldo.

R3T14: Xhanfaerd, what do you do, your help to the party getting rid of yet another mithril cobra.

Silphael takes his weapon - one of the few weapons that does not fear being used as a demolitions weapon - and starts beating at the rock-vine wall. He partially gets out of the way of one tumble, taking only a little bit of damage which was healed right away by Aron.

On the second tumble, it all comes down and he couldn't quite avoid that and he took 12 and got knocked down.

In the meantime, the area opened beyond includes half of a cavernous chamber surrounding a smaller, inner structure. The ceiling has collapsed in some places, and a tangle of vines, mosses, and other plants grow in the thick mud covering the floor.

Oh, and really big bugs staring down the stairs at the fallen guy and the party behind him! They are each horse-sized wasps covered in yellow and black vertical stripes—with stingers the size of a sword and dripping with venom.

R1T22: Book slings his whip and draws his sidearm, moving to the east a few feet to try to draw them out for a shot.

R1T21: Aron calls out, "That's exactly what they are ... giant wasps. Mindless like most bugs, and their poison is a paralytic that screws up your equilibrium."

She steps forward and casts a quick spell that gives Xhanfaerd some of her oracular insight, before she draws her sword.

Spoiler: Xhanfaerd

She cast guidance on you.

R1T20: Being an opportunistic predator, a giant wasp (Green) buzzes angrily down to the fallen trespasser, alighting on the pile of rocks on the stairs. Its stinger jams into Xhanfaer'd supper right bicep that severs the muscle for 14 + 1 DEX + 1 STR, and then poison goes into his arm and bloodstream. It is a herculean fight, but his goblin companion's warning rings true as he feels, not a burning, but a heaviness that spread throughout his system to make him sluggish.

Spoiler: Xhanfaerd

Show

Sluggish: A character rendered sluggish by Dexterity poison has dulled reactions. He takes a –2 penalty on Reflex saves and all Dexterity-based attack rolls, ability checks, and skill checks, as well as to AC.

R1T18: Another wasp (Red) flies in from sight previously unseen and threatens Fronaldo, buzzing above him.

R1T5: Xhanfaerd, it is your turn. At the beginning of your turn (before you may take any actions, incl. setting up a stance), you must make a save vs. poison. Remember that you have guidance right now. Xhanfaerd is prone, but earthbreaker is in hand. What do you do?

[lostsole31]

R1T5: Feeling the poison progressing further, causing his muscles to now feel stiff, Xhanfaerd takes his stance, stands up (the wasp missing on its AOO), and attempts to strike the wasp. Sure enough, he clobbers it in the head for 16, and he himself is healed of 6.

Spoiler: Xhanfaerd

In addition to "Sluggish" (see previous, sheet adusted), you are now also "Stiffened."

Stiffened: A character stiffened by Dexterity poison feels numb and stiff. He is considered flat-footed and is denied his Dexterity bonus to AC, even if he has uncanny dodge. He can’t make attacks of opportunity.

R1T4: Blue flutters down onto the rocks overlooking Xhanfaerd as well, piercing his left shoulder for 7. The poison almost takes him farther, but his psionic stance helps fight off this new iteration.

R3T21: Aron maintains her swaying dance that gets the men's hearts racing. She steps up behind Xhanfaerd and touches him with the wand for 5 healing before putting the wand away.

Fronaldo drops one dagger and retrieves a small vial of purple liquid from his belt pouch. Concentrating, the vial glows brightly before he quaffs it down. Long whiskers sprout from his cheeks and his pointed ears grow grey and white tufts of fur. He then moves into the doorway, drawing a second dagger on the move.

Fronaldo knows he is in a bad way and tries to tumble away from the Queen Wasp, this time stabbing him in the right knee. At first, Fronaldo feels the stabbing pain but in a flash that wound is no longer there. Meanwhile, Xhanfaerd's right knee is wounded for 11. Xhanfaerd tried to minimize the damage through pure strength of will, but it failed. Luckily, the sting was only just breaking the surface of Fronaldo's skin. Unfortunately, Fronaldo is left fighting off more poison. To his credit, though Fronaldo's body works so hard that he manages to fight off the effects of all poison ins his body. He still stumbles from battle around the corner, though, and then takes out some antitoxin after dropping a second dagger.

R2T21: The fiendish queen wasp stings Xhanfaerd in his belly for 13. Even with his stance, Xhanfaerd is so vulnerable that he is just too easy to hit. This time, however, Xhanfaerd is so loopy from previous poisonings that his body really isn't affected any more by the new influx of toxin.

R2T11: Book looks at his sidearm in confusion and then stows it whilst drawing his whip.

R2T5: Aron casts CLW on Xhanfaerd for 7 healing.

”Wow! We need to withdraw. I will check the door to the North to see if it safe that way.”

Fronaldo moves to the North door and stores his vial of antitoxin in his belt pouch.

R3T21: The Queen Wasp hums angrily at the strike Xhanfaerd placed, and some unknown sense of what the energy surrounding that healing must mean, because the wasp now seems hyper-focused on Xhanfaerd. It stings him in the left hand, and this time it hurts a lot more than expected for 23. Though Xhanfaerd is able to continue to shrug off the poison, it feels as if there is now more than poison, but coalesced malice in the creature's attack.

R4T23: Fronaldo sighs heavily, “This is going to get me killed.” He limps quickly back to the fray, favoring his wounded leg. He tosses his magic dagger. Even with Xhanfaerd's mental help and the thing being prone, that damned goofbal with the funny hat is in your way and fouls Fronaldo's shot ... his dagger bouncing off of its fiendish chitin and landing in the room somewhere just on the other side of the entrance wall right near Book.

R4T21: The Queen Wasp goes to get to its feet. Book kicks it lightly in the head, ineffectually. Also incredibly, Xhanfaerd's earthbreaker bounces off the chitin with a poorly lined up swing. Now on its feet, the Queen Wasp makes as bad an attack as Xhanfaerd tried. With his stiffened muscles, Xhanfaerd is ridiculously easy to bite, but he is able to summon his willpower to minimize the damage (body of delusion) to only do 9. His body almost falls prey to the poison, but his psionically-endowed stance protects him.

R4T11: Book, what do you do? You are staring down the Queen Wasp who is back on all six of her feet.

R5T23: Fronaldo is shocked that his dagger didn’t return. Must be a anti magic area or ability,he thinks to himself. Desperately he pulls a small flask from his kit filled with greenish goo. He concentrates briefly and the mixture glows a virulent emerald. He then retrieves a new dagger from his bandolier.

R5T21: Book is annoying, but the Queen Wasp seems hyperfocused on Xhanfaerd ... he's weaker, easier to hit, and for some reason she seems to have particular viciousness against him. Her stinger "grazes" Xhanfaerd right in the cheek for 18. Again, though, the Magaambyan shows what he's made of by fighting off the poison.
