[QUOTE="Dr Simon, post: 4987198, member: 21938"] Manachan and Dj'hân race down the narrow corridor to find another chamber, lit by Edmond's dancing lights that bob and hover near to Brindom. The chamber opens out to the left-hand side (as they see it), where the walls seem to descend into a pit of slurry. An island of solid ground is left in the centre of this room, upon which lies a pile of body parts in varying states of decay. The sickly sweet stench of rotting flesh mingles with a whiff of excrement. Heaving itself out of the mud-pit is a huge bulbous sack of a creature, its flabby body split by a toothy maw. Three tentacles emerge from the sack. One holds Edmond wrapped in its grasp; the holy warrior sends a pulse of blue magic into the creature as it drags him over to its mouth and bites. The middle tentacle holds a pair of eyes, one above the other, and it points towards the newcomers. The third tentacle lashes out at Brindom. The cleric slaps at it with his club, but it still grabs him wraps around him. [COLOR="DarkOrchid"]"Stop or we both might end up really hurt,"[/COLOR] says Brindom to the creature. [COLOR="Sienna"]"Me eat you first!"[/COLOR] is all it has to say in reply. [sblock=Dj'hân] The creature is an otyugh, and many of these creatures are "employed" by the city in the sewers as living waste disposal units. Sometimes they escape. They are surprisingly intelligent, and can talk. They aren't overtly hostile, nor evil, but usually very hungry. Their bite can carry disease. [/sblock] [SBLOCK=OOC] It will take a little while for Majenko to search the derro, so I'm holding off for now on that information. Under PF rules, the derro must make a save every minute against his stinger, so I think at least 8 rounds need to pass before I check. Manachan and Dj'hân move into the chamber. Otyugh: Grapple attempt on Edmond, beats CMD. Tentacle causes 7 damage. Second attack with bite, hits for another 7 damage. Third tentacle attack hits Brindom for 4 damage and engages grapple. Edmond: Spellcraft check for Concentration: 1+6=7, fails to beat DC 24 Is still grappled. Brindom: readied attack 6+2=8, fails to affect otyugh. Diplomacy check 5+7=13, not enough. Is now grappled. Initiative order for next round: (Majenko) Manachan Brindom (grappled) Otyugh Dj'hân Edmond (grappled) [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
