Sollir and Kytess both rolled in the mid/high 20s, while the rest of combatants are all under 10. Why is this pic better than the others ? Anyway… Here's the initiative for next round. Ivellios Sollir Kytess Jalon Spider #2 (the one in the room) Murhid Spider #1 (the one over Ubaar) Taz Ubaar And the status of the party : (S) Sollir Furryfoot : Hp(21/21) [i] [/i] (M) Murhid : Hp (2/21) [i] 4 points of dexterity damage, poisoned ?[/i] (T) Taz : Hp (19/19), [i] [/i] Sheela : Hp (9/9), [i] [/i] (I) Ivellios Nailo : Hp (26/35) [i] [/i] (U) Ubaar : Hp (10/32), [i] Endure fire (12 hours), 2 points of dexterity damage, poisoned ?[/i] (K) Kytess : Hp (18/28) [i] Endure fire (12 hours) [/i] (J) Jalon Odessa : Hp (20/24) [i] Endure fire (12 hours)[/I][/i] [/QUOTE]
