Yttermayn's "Saga of the Dragon Cult" (IC) 2

First Post
Rosalia, Scrag, Grok, and Roderic see a new shape loom suddenly out of the darkness. Before anyone can react, the shape resolves into Tuk, who quickly glances around and grabs a vial from the case, then chucks it into the darkness behind him. There is a tinkling of breaking glass, then the whoosh of flame is heard. Tuk seems to grin wickedly somehow without moving a single facial muscle. John sees a muted flash of orange flame coming from the periphery of the dark area; any closer and he would have caught some of it. It would seem that his companions on the other side have found a means of damaging this thing also.
As John watches, the burning, stinking mess heaves it's mass further into the darkness, still pursuing his companions. On the other side of the darkness, the flaming black tentacled spooge-monster attacks the first thing it comes into contact with- Scrag. Scrag angrily bats away the incoming tentacles when they lash at him, and is unharmed.
OOC: Grok is up! I just updated my aging desktop with all new barebones parts and windows7 (aka. Vista that works), and I forgot to copy over my PBP files, so please forgive the blurry map. Looks like this fight's going to be over soon anyways.

"it followed you in Tuk!!" calls John.
Rosalia continues her search reassuring herself in the knowledge that she cannot harm the thing herself.
this dwarf must have something that can explain all this mess! she thinks.
Once the shelves have been explored, she checks the body of the dward, looking for books, notes or anything peculiar.

Grok takes a 5 foot step and heaves his mace at it. Through the haft of the weapon he feels a gooey, rubbery resistance that seems to totally suck the power out of his swing. He knows intuitively his attacks with the mace will all be completely ineffective.
Quickly riffling through the dwarf's belongings, Rosalia finds what she's looking for: A thin journal tucked inside his clothing. Hopefully the fresh blood on it hasn't obscured anything important. Despite her quiet litany to herself, Rosalia does notice the boys seem to be having some success blasting away at the creature with the alchemists fire they found. Well, now she knows where the stuff in the trap that burned her came from.
OOC: John's up!
