Turn 24: Poison and PainAthara gritted her teeth and moved to strike back at the grappling Nautilius!
[2+1] vs [2+2] You swing at it again, but the blow goes wide again.
Despite being uninjured, the nautilus releases its grip and darts out the doorway. Another slips in to take its place, however.
[4] vs [3] This one latches on almost identically to the last, gripping your offhand painfully.
-1 HP+1 Swords+1 DodgeFenarel saw the incoming enemy take hold of his ally, he helps Athara by bringing down the edge of his glaive on the creature.
[6+2] vs [2+2] You bring down your glaive on the creature with a loud crack, cutting through the edge of its shell and much of the flesh beneath.
[4] vs [1-1] Another nautilus takes the opportunity to slither in and lash at you, grabbing your knees and clenching painfully. You nearly lose your balance, and feel the slime's effects take hold as well.
-4 HP+2 Spears+1 DodgeNow Slimed"Aaa! Drzkktizz! What did you do?! Someone deal with those shapes behind us, quick!"
Using my sword stuck inside the tentacle thing, pick it up off the ground with only my sword and throw it into the shapes.
[3+2-1] vs [6+2] Despite your best efforts, the tentacle thing slithers off your sword and darts back through the doorway. Another rushes in to take its place.
[4] vs [2-1] It latches onto your arms, constricting and resliming you.
-3 HP+2 Swords+1 DodgeNow Dabbling DodgerSlimed againSlice with my sword.
[Athara][6+1] vs [3+2] The fine steel of your blade cuts through the thing attacking Athara, and it falls off, dead and rather brutalized.
[5] vs [1-1] Unfortunately, another one slithers in when it notices you near the doorway, and promptly latches onto your face, squeezing the life out of your throat. Your vision blurs, not that you can see much with it attached anyway.
Oh, and that slime you helped create gets all over you as well.
[2] You double over as your petrified wound begins acting up again. This is really not the time!
-5 HP+3 Swords+1 DodgeNow SlimedIn Pain: -1 to all actionsTry to find something to stab with the spear
[6] Not trusting yourself to jab into a melee involving your companions, you instead rush towards the pit. Which ends in you tripping over the stone lip of it and landing inside.
The first thing you notice is that it's fortunately not that deep- a foot or two at best, you think. The second thing is that it's glowing with a dull reddish light. The third is what at first appears to be a multitude of red stones in the bottom.
The fourth thing you notice is the giant, hideous fish rapidly growing from one of the stones. Oh, they must be eggs. Also, is this thing really that big or are your eyes really bad?
[2+1-2] vs [3] Your spear goes wide. Hm, maybe it's not as large as you thought.
[2+3] vs [5-2] Then its needle-teeth sink into your arm. At this range, even in your half-blind state, it seems pretty obvious that this thing is far too big.
-2 HP+1 Spears+7 DodgeNow Novice DodgerAction: Send more poison clouds at the shapes!
[1+2-2-1] Poison begins wafting off your carapace, agonizingly corroding it and fouling the water around you. It doesn't seem to be stopping on its own.
-2 HP+1 Poison MagicSuffering from Corroding PoisonThe twisting shapes continue their frantic motions, and a great, reddish-skinned fish rises from the pit as the kitsune stumbles into it. She quickly rises and stabs futilely at it, then makes an impressive dodge attempt against the thing's oversized jaws filled with horrifying needle-like teeth. You suspect this is bad.
