Running Darvi on auto-pilot. Request is still valid, Talarion; I'll mark the electricity book down for ya. :3
WOLVERINESWhile Wymar plucks harpy feathers from one of the corpses for no particular reason, Daniel gets out his kit and tends to his own wounds. (3+2; 5 HP restored) Applying a poultice to his injuries, he closes the kit and searches what plants there are nearby for medicinal herbs. (2+2) It's mostly flowers - pretty, but nothing useful to him. Frenz and Greenmoore wait for him to finish before they all move onwards, Wymar promptly dropping the feathers over the side of the cliff.
They continued onwards until the path forked slightly. There was a sign of some sort at the dead center of the fork, extremely primitive in make. It's clearly a warning, but which path is warning against: the one continuing to trail around with a steep drop, or the one cutting through part of the mountain?
NIGHTCRAWLERS(INITIATIVE)MALAKAI RITTYelling in pain, you attempt to create an ice barrier around yourself to ward off the spiders while your summon targets Spider 4 again. (5, -2MP) Overcoming your injuries, you cover your body in a thin shell of ice. (4 vs 3; Major Failure) The Shadow demon just hisses at the spider rather than attack. Damn unreliable evil spirits. That's what happens when you don't grab them by the throat and very forcefully tell them what you want them to do.
SPIDER 3With Malleus immobilized, the spider goes to attack! (4 vs
But even with only one arm free, the knight holds the spider at bay with his axe.
SPIDER 1Spider 1 attacks Malakai's ice barrier. (6 vs 1) It cracks it open, but it hasn't gotten to the magician yet.
SPIDER 2Spider 2 made an odd squealing noise of some sort and tried to bind Claire! (4 vs 7) But the pirate dodged the incoming webs easily.
MALLEUS RAULAT - Armor negation ends next turn
You manage to free your legs, but your shield arm is still webbed to your torso. It'll probably wash off here in a moment from the water being churned up by the battle. (7 vs 3; Minor Success, 1d4; 3 damage) You strike Spider 3 in the closest leg, injuring it.
PIERRE Dé GRASSESpider 4 is running in and you move to intercept. (4 vs
But the waist-deep water slows you and it skitters right by!
CLAIRE ROSARALoading one of the 'special' bullets into your pistol, you take aim at Spider 1. (5 vs 4; -2 MP, Massive Success, 2d6x2; 18 damage, 3, effect activates; defense lowered by 4 points for two rounds) The bullet strikes it in the back of the head -such as it is- and comes out through one of the eyes, killing it instantly! Looks like Malakai's lucky the 'local tail' followed Pierre after all.
SPIDER 4(4) It turns out Spider 4 was just stepping on Malakai's hand on its route to attack Claire! (6 vs 2; Massive Failure, counter; Minor Failure) More used to being in water than the other party members, Claire dove to the side and swam away from the charge.
