As you move forward, Surana and Bertram spot an opening below a heavy slab of stone and you all make for it. It's large enough for you to easily fit and appears as sturdy as anything. A short passage leads to a wider area beneath the slab. About 15' in the floor slopes steeply away from you. The slab hangs out partially over an open area strewn with bolders and root like stone formations on the floor and ceiling. Orsik's light casts weird bouncing shadows that make you feel sick. Your compatriots stumble in behind you. One, two, three...you try to count them or name them...but it's too chaotic. Then the dust rolls in and all you can see is shadows shrouded in grays and browns.

The roar behind you diminishes to a rumble then to the tapping of a few stones followed by silence. The dust begins to clear and you again start to try to figure out if everyone made it and if everyone is okay. Shuushar, Sarith, Eldeth..

"What the hell is tha..."

OOC: roll initiative. You are all surprised (I don't think anyone's passive perception beats a 21...)

OOC:
Init Order is:

Monster (1d20+1)[20]
Surana/Drum (1d20+3)[22]*
Sarith (1d20+2)[19]
Topsy/Turvy (1d20+2)[17]
Eldeth (1d20+2)[17]
Bertram (1d20+5)[10]
Derendil (1d20+1)[10]
Ezraen (1d20+3)[5]
Shushar (1d20)[4]
Orsik (1d20)[1]

*Surana is the only one to beat the monster so on her turn she becomes aware but then moves to the top of the queue after the monster. Everyone else is still surprised on it's turn.

What you thought was one of many large boulders is a bulbous head, colored exactly like the surrounding rock. Two alien eyes the size of the dinner plates with oddly shaped pupils flank the sides. What appeared to be root like rocks are numerous tentacles. Surana notices the danger first but not before the strange (and very large) creature rears up using several of its rear tentacles to launch itself straight for Sarith who is just turning to face the danger but not quite quickly enough to defend himself.

The thing grabs for him...

OOC: poor Sarith...I really did roll who it attacked randomly...


Rocktopus Tentacles: [roll0]
Adv (surprise): [roll1]
damage [roll2]

It strikes him with enormous force and engulfs him in its tentacles. The dark elf collapses to the ground, bashing his head with a crack. It immediately begins to drag him further into the cave.

OOC: Surana may make an attack of opportunity since she is no longer surprised.

Surana sinks her blade into its soft muscly body but it doesn't slow it. It drags Sarith with it about 10' away from you and into the cave. There are so many holes and fissures you realize it could disappear down one at any moment!

OOC:
Surana is up. The terrain is difficult due to all the rocks and holes. It did a moved to get about 10' away. Sarith is out cold and bleeding from his head.

Edit: fixed...it couldn't attack and dash on the same turn.

OOC: Fudge, okay. If I take the dash action to try and get in front of it, does it still get an opp attack while it's holding Sarith?

And although I can't do it this turn, still wanna know: is it too big to grapple?
