Adventures in the lands of Syrael (IC)

Heclar Kal'lack

Insuring that all of his equipment is in good working order, he gathers his gear and looks between the Web Cave and the rest of the group. "We should go in" Stats the burley dwarf with a tone that leaves little to debate. Securing his gear and his trusted weapon in hand he begins to move towards the entrance. "Left unchecked, these creatures will undoubtly spread and cause more chaos on supply lines and on the innocents."

Randmar nods. "I agree with Heclar! We should go in, and ensure that none of these foul vermin survive to spread their filth."
 

Silverdrake and Heclar walk up to the cave and look at each other as they declare their intentions to enter the spider-cave. Before the other party members can even react, the two bold adventurers crouch and enter. After about a second, a pair of surprised yells issue from the cave. The rest of the party quickly enters to give aid. Alexcia lights another glow rod and yells, ""Hey! What happened, 'Drake? Are you ok?" As the party moves forward, they hear the response in the form of a disgusted sigh. "Yeah. We're ok; just stuck in this big pit." Indeed, Heclar and Silverdrake had both managed to fall into a ten foot by ten foot pit. It looked as though it was the old remains of a riverbed, mostly filled with rocks and sand. A net of web coated the area above and inside. At the lip of the pit on the side opposite from where the adventurers are, the path continues father into the creature-made cave.
 


Randmar continues to swear and curse as he looks about at his and Heclar's predicament. After a few minutes he calms himself and answers his companion's questions. "I've got rope in my climbing kit."
 

As Silverdrake gets the rope out, Luhal, struck by a sudden suspicion, looks around carefully, alert to any creatures who might be drawn by the tumbles or the yelps of surprise.

Ostu squeezes into the webby cave, his bow once agains stowed across his back. He smiles as he squints to see his fallen companions in the low light.

"You guys okay?"
 

"The only thing injured is my pride," says 'drake, shaking his head. "I can't believe I missed seeing this pit."
 

The group quickly hauled their companions out of the pit. It was easy to see how they had fallen in; the ledge of the pit was coated in slimy water, and was sloped. This made for very unstable footing. Now the party needed to decide how to make it across the pit and to the other side, where adventure awaited them!
 

Weel Naxel, roguish human cleric

"While we're stopped, perhaps we should do a little fortifying?" Weel says with an amused grin to the two who fell. "I have a spell which can restore someone's spider-sapped strength, and another draught to bolster venom immunity if someone wants to carry it just in case."

He reaches into his bag and pulls out a small wand. "And the wand, of course. Who needs a patching?"

[sblock=OOC]The spell is his Lesser Restoration (three can use it, but no one's spoken up asking for it), the draught a second vial of antitoxin. If folks just let me know who's taking hits off the wand, I'll update charges, as well.[/sblock]
