See below.@ Luinnar - you're right about Draco though, it looks like a short rest will work to bring him back.[/sblock]Focusing his arcane senses on the bulbs he extracts from the withered vine creatures, Alnar detects lingering traces of the animus that is the source of the plant-things' semi-sentience, mobility, and hunger. This animus could likely fuel all manner of arcane rituals. Thinking on these matters he has a flash of inspiration for a new way this animus could be used, and makes a mental note to think on it more when he is out of danger.Likewise Ferris, once revived by Jezebel, examines the vine husks and sees that the blessings of Dayna lay thick upon these savage creatures. He hazards a guess that their leaves could make a potent holy incense, which could perhaps be used to distill the blessings of the goddess.[sblock="Treasure Received!"]Alnar and Ferris find 40gp worth of Alchemical Reagents (Arcana) and Sanctified Incense (Religion) respectively. Also, at the end of the next extended rest Alnar will learn the Unseen Servant ritual (AP pg. 158) and Ferris will learn Create Holy Water (DP pg. 156).[/sblock]The two spell casters also recognize the stamens within the mouth-bulbs of the creatures as the raw form of the starweed drug that Berekis was importing. They cut short their ritual magic musings however, upon the realization that it has grown significantly darker during the fight. Only a few rays of dim twilight now cut through the forest canopy, and danger may still lurk in the shadows. With at least one stirge still about, and likely more of both stirges and vine creatures nearby it doesn't seem safe to rest here...[sblock="Low-light vision or Perception 15"]You notice a glint of metal on the top of the muddy slope up ahead (at G10). It looks like yet another scrap of chainmail.[/sblock]OOC: We are still in the encounter until the PCs find a way out/decide to leave, but as you're not currently in combat, feel free to move more than your speed in each post. You don't need to follow initiative order at the moment either (i.e. you can post more than once consecutively). Dim-light now prevails. PCs without low-light vision will take a -2 to perception checks until further notice, and any further enemies encountered will have concealment from them unless a lightsource is used. Keep in mind the mangrove roots and the mudslick are difficult terrain.</blockquote>
