If I can get the torch start burning shit. If I cannot fal back while swinging and stabbing at undead bugs
This creature is different , not natural thing.
Who had the torch? Oh it fell into the room, didn't it? No luck, it remains out of reach, in a little clear spot fifteen feet behind you and to the side. You do manage to fall back though, and retain your footing.
((Being in a small space, I'm scared of drowning my teammates.))
I'll use putrid river (water hose) again, I'll try to remove the armor of bugs with my waterbeam. I''l make sure I hit my teammates least as possible.
Ahahahahahahahaha. You get such good rolls on that one. I never expected to write about something like this, you know?
You lean forward again, brace yourself, and begin vomiting a stream of water, You arc it up, like water from a firehose, and begin stripping bugs off the big thing, left, right, up and down. the creature's carapace is becoming clear, and it looks like a centipede with widse, spidrery legs, whic hgrow out from the bottom, sides, and tops of each of the segments you can see. You rolled a six, so time to roll collateral damage. You have ... three teammates in the line of fire. spaz' luck rings true, and killer is out of hte way, but you shove Mongo right under the seething tide, both of water and of bugs.
((Everything that can be drowned either has been or is on your side Loki. It doesn't work on the undead, and the big guy is either immune or undead as well.))
Free myself from the bugs. Bite off any part of the big 'un that gets too close.
Before you can, you get swerpt off your feet and pushed forward, directly under the monster, in a tide of putrid water and bug bits. Your teammates strike again. You grab hold of one of the great beast's many legs and climb, pulling yourself halfway out of the flood, and ripping off another of the thing's limbs in the process that was a wild ride. yo can't even see the others, or the hallway from where you came. Both are hidden by the bulk of the beast. yo uare closer to the cavern from which the bug came. Oddly enough, you can see pretty well though. it's not pitch black back there. Sunlight streams into that cavern and you look up instinctively, to see part of a giant gaping hole in the cavern ceiling. that's probably not supposed to be like that.
Charge back in and do my best to help Mongo the bear without injuring him
You start forward, then stop and watch as the River Styx decides to take a little detour through your battle. Mongo gets pulled along with it, but you see a great furry paw grab hold of a big ugly spider leg, so you know he's still alive. "hang in there" You yell, edging around the wall of the cavern to get to the bear. You get about ten feet away this turn.
You know what would improve this situation? More demons!
Almost missed you, so you go out of turn. sorry. maybe.
You call forth two demons: one a birdlike thing much like yourself, and another, of which all you can see are the vertical slits of it's eyes, inside a roiling mass of darkness. Now, what do they do? the first flies immediately toward the bugs and monsters and begins pecking and slashing, and eating. With each eaten monster, it grows larger. The second tunrs too, slowly, and moves forward, darkness radiating out of it, covering the torch and blackening the room. You can't see what happens from there. Except that you can still see the slits of the demon's eyes, and they seem to be expanding.
so, the bird is on the drowned one's head. the drowned one vomited a stream of water, washing away a bunch of the bugs and Mongo. Varion is in a fighting retreat, but the three of you (bird, dead, and psycho) are now virtually blind, because of the second demon. All any of you can see are the slits of it's eyes.
As for Mongo and Korvash, they are on the far side of the cavern rom you, and can see what I have described for them. They don't really know about the two demons yet.
