    Also, we're back at healing spells that if used on a 1st level fighter turn them from bloody mess of broken bones into examples of perfect health, but on 10th level fighters are barely able to heal a flea's bite.

    Stunned by the peryton's sudden sttack the pixie doesn't notice at first how he's the prey now until he's far away from the rest of the group, then emits a high pitched screech of panic as it discovers how dangerous the situation is.
