A Fight in the Muck: Round 1
Vimak lashes at the mass of mutated creatures before him. He manages to wound a few, but the sheer mass deadens the blow. At the same time, the mass of them nip at the goliath
[Hit S1, 4 damage after swarm resistance. Before his attack, swarm gets aura attack: Hit for 11 damage and 3 ongoing.]
Torqua attempts to launch an attack in retaliation, but is stymied. It lands harmlessly in the muck.
[Miss]
Lhavarr is to surprised to act, and to distracted to fight off the infection crawling up his arm. His left elbow begins to feel off.
[Save fails]
Johanna vents her frustration, but continues to hold her place.
The mass of lizards bite at all around them, though Vimak's magic allows him to attempt to defend himself: His slash, however, is hasty and they spill around it. Luckily for the half-elf, the pipe protects him from the ones nipping at him, and the goliath's sturdiness is enough to inure him to the wound, but a host of sharp teeth score Sapo's tender flesh, dragging her down to one knee before she can fight them off. The grip on her staff is slick with the mix of muck and her blood. One of them steps back into the shadows.
[Aura attacks of swarm attack Lhavarr & Sapo twice, Vimak once. Vimak gets an OA first vs S1: Misses. The swarms miss Lhavarr twice, Vimak once, and Sapo twice, but hit her two other times for 20hp and 3 ongoing, bloodying her. S2 shifts.]
In the back, the shadowy lizards again make a foul noise, and more globs of acid fly towards the party. One hits Vimak on his bitten shoulder, stinging painfully. The other, however, lands on Sapo's wounded leg. The sudden blood loss is too much, and she slumps into the muck.
[Both attacks hit. 11 to Vimak, 10 to Sapo. Sapo is dying.]
The misformed eye of the other creature blinks once and it hunkers down, ready.
[Readies an attack]
A Fight in the Muck: Round 1
[sblock=Map]
[/sblock]Moving from sewer to land and vice-versa costs and extra square. The barrel provides cover. Currently, most of the party is in a pipe; you must move to E4/5 before moving elsewhere in the room; when Torqua does this, the rest of the room will be illuminated. Until then, the room (except for the center pillar) is dark (concealment).
