Tetranac finds some slimy substance in the entryway and happens to discover that if it comes into contact with blood it starts to dissolve the stone. \u00a0\u00a0He sits and concentrates for a few minutes and determines that there are several Aberration near by. \u00a0He determines that the tracks in the entryway leads south down the hallway. \u00a0But decides it is better to go back to the party. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">After the party wakes up and gets the update of what happened while they were asleep. \u00a0Talin punches Tetranac in the nose on hearing that he let the dwarves die and not do anything. \u00a0\u00a0He goes down and checks out the dwarves and finds that they might be from the royal guard. \u00a0He thinks that the handle on the War Axe is a little long and after letting Othello look at it finds that it opens and there is a thin sheet of mithril with dwarven runes on it. \u00a0He leaves it in the axe handle and the party head out and follows the tracks south. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Othello and Tetranac are scouting head and about a hundred feet past the branch hallway that lead to traps they spot a monster making a fairly large amount of racket headed toward them. \u00a0It is unlike anything that they have seen. \u00a0It has two large wheels made of flesh that are getting propelled by large tentacles. \u00a0The axle if you could call it that was about four feet off the ground and eyes could be seen every quarter cycle. \u00a0The wheels were about ten feet and the tentacles went a couple of feet beyond that. \u00a0Othello was had climbed up the wall and was hiding near the ceiling about twenty feet up. \u00a0Shot a bolt at the monster but it did not strike true and glanced off the beast. He yells a warning to the rest of the party as he slips back into hiding. \u00a0Bone moves up and and sets himself in the middle of the hallway waiting for the monster to approach. \u00a0\u00a0Talin and Mightychondria setup beside him. \u00a0Tetranac hids off to the side of the hallway and shoots a explosive arrow at it. \u00a0Pete and Gubikla bring up the rear of the party. \u00a0The monster faster then the party expected rolls over the party grabbing Tetranac in the process and flings him down the hallway knocking him cold. \u00a0The fighters swing and slicing and pounding on the monster as it rolls over them knocking a few of them prone. \u00a0As the monster stops and reverses direction it grabs Pete and flings him down the hallway from the direction we came from. \u00a0\u00a0Gubikla activates his haste boots and dives under the monster and shoots up directly under the monster a lighting bolt making sure he sculpts himself out of the spell. \u00a0The lighting bolt bouncing off the ceiling and the floor makes five passes through the monster. \u00a0He does this two more times electrocuting the monster to death. \u00a0But this is too much for the ceiling and big chucks fall to the heavily damage floor. Gubikla barely survives. \u00a0\u00a0The noise that this caused seems to alert other monsters farther down the hall. \u00a0The party revives the members that were passed out and prepares for the next battle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Othello is back hiding in the corner of the wall and the ceiling. \u00a0Tetranac is upfront with the fighters and Pete heads back a little farther from the party, hoping to stay out of combat. \u00a0The party gets hit by half a dozen or more flyers shooting poisonous darts. \u00a0Followed up with some Chethrol\u2019s swinging chain bolo. \u00a0Tetranac gets hit by a dart and is paralyzed. \u00a0Pete gets hit and paralyzed on the return pass. \u00a0Bone and Mightychondria get hit and warped up in the chain bolos. \u00a0Bone manages to flex his muscles and bust the chain. \u00a0The fragments magicly slam back into Bone embedding themselves, but Bone hardly seems to notice he is just happy to be able to attack. \u00a0Gubikla cast fireball and that takes out most of the flyers and when the Chethrol advanced he cast a firewall making them split and run along the walls. \u00a0Hammar and Bone attack while Talin takes up a defensive position in front of Tetranac and uses his Commander&#8217;s Strike to let Bone swing again. \u00a0With Othello picking off monsters from his hiding position and the fighters chopping\/pounding down the advancing Chethrols as well as Gubikla giving artillery support. \u00a0The hallway is cleared in a few rounds. \u00a0Tetranac regains movement just as the battle ended. Mightychondria managed to shake the dispelled chain near the end of the fight. \u00a0The party goes and helps the burned and paralyzed Pete. \u00a0Othello finds a healing potion on Pete and saves it from getting destroyed, just incase Pete would fall over. \u00a0He then hands it back to him saying that he must have dropped it and he needed to take better care of delicate things like potions. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">COD = Gubikla for diving under the monster and bouncing lighting through the monster and then almost dieing from falling debris.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hammar &#8211; Dwarf: Cleric (lvl 10) Pete &#8211; Dragonborn: Cleric (lvl 10) Tetranac \u2013 Drow: Ranger (lvl 9) Talin \u2013 Dwarf: Fighter (lvl 9) Othello \u2013 Gnome: \u00a0Thief (lvl 10) Bone \u2013 Human: Fighter (lvl 10) Gubikla \u2013 Gnome: Wizard (lvl 10) Mightychondria \u2013 HalfOrc: Fighter (lvl 9) &nbsp; Did Cloverdung get pounded by this [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-656","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-adventures"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/656","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=656"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/656\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":660,"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/656\/revisions\/660"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=656"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=656"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cloverdung.texasbluelime.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=656"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
