[QUOTE="Tenchuu, post: 5089048, member: 85539"] [sblock=Initiative]I rolled a nat 20 for the enemies, which makes their initiative 26 (rats), 20 (jelly), and 29(?). Since Kane is the only one who rolled over 20, but the rats (his closest enemy) still beat him, I'm just going to have the enemy turn first, for simplicity sake.[/sblock] Kane threw the sunrod to the south, and followed. Stanng moved up, stepping just into the northern pass, guarding this side of the tunnel as Kane proceeded, since it was so narrow. Mervin came up behind Stanng, and Wil followed as well. Kane moved deeper into the mines, stopping at the next junction to look around. To his right (looking west), Kane spotted hundreds of rats, all crawling on top of one another. They were in a mount on top of something. One rat looked at Kane and let loose a feral scream, which focused all the other rats on the new prey. With unsettling quickness, the creatures ran at the berserker, crawling over themselves. They rushed Kane, biting at his feet, but the berserker was able to kick them away, keeping the horde at bay. Queued by the screaching alarm, a second rat swarm emerged from the northern pass. The wall of rats lunged at Stanng's feet. They bit down hard, but the shifter's scale armor held up to their attacks. Meanwhile, on the large room, Hergunna lit her own sunrod to illuminate the eastern pass. As she did, the light glistened off green puddle. Alarmingly, the ooze lurched forward. As it reached her feet, the ooze formed into a stiff wall and slammed against her. The attack felt like running into a brick wall. And as the slim reverted to puddle form before her, Hergunna noticed that part of the slim was still on her, burning into her clothing. Hergunna spots more movement in the eastern chamber: creatures crawling on the ceiling. But as she take a closer look, the creatures seem to blend in with the rock.
