(A natural 20 to escape ! – needed a 14 or better on the die.)(9 points of healing)The spider inside the room turns to follow its prey and comes after Murhid, not realizing the danger of turning its back on Kytess.  It gets a chain blow for its trouble.  However, the chain doesn’t penetrate very deep, even though the blow was a good one. (10 points of damage – 5 points DR)Then, as the monster is coming up to the monk, Murhid runs around it, the spider’s mouth biting the air a foot behind him.  He then runs towards the exit.  The web covers most of it, but he spots a small hole at the top, 5 and a half feet from the ground, and barely big enough for him.  The jump will have to be perfect.He reaches the web with large steps and pushes with his legs.  The jump is high as he sails by Ubaar and inches from the second spider, avoiding another bite by inches this time.  But he misses his mark and falls in the burning web, which will not support his weight for long. (A very good roll for jumping followed by a very bad dexterity roll for aim.  Fortunately, you are very good at avoiding AoOs with dodge and mobility.  May I suggest investing in Tumbling skills in the future ?)On the plus side, with all that adrenaline, he doesn’t feel the poison anymore.The spider above him, then bites.  Strangely, it bypasses the monk and tries to strike at Ubaar. From his vantage point, Murhid twists his head and sees that the spider seems to have silvery streaks down its black-as-night abdomen.  They look strangely … patterned … unnatural.  Also, beyond the spider, there is a human-sized cocoon stuck to the ceiling and wall.  Something is moving inside there.Venom dripping from its face, the spider bites Ubaar in the arm, injecting him with another dose of poison.  Fortunately, he feels no unholy energy trying to quench his life force this time.  Still, the wound hurts.  (9 points of damage)As the spider attacks, Ubaar also strikes, cutting a deep wound in the thing’s neck.  It is very tough, though, kind of like the imp and dragon.  Still, the wound is deep and the spider recoils from Ubaar’s blade. (20 points of damage – 5 DR)Ubaar also fights off the poison from the other bite, but he now has a new dose in him.  He also feels the web around him weakening from the flames.(BTW, I put a 1 round delay for the poison’s primary effect.  More dramatic and logical that way.  Hence the “poisoned ?”  remark.  Tell me if you mind.)Here's the initiative for next round.TazIvelliosSollirKytessJalonSpider #2 (the one in the room)MurhidSpider #1 (the one over Ubaar)UbaarAnd the status of the party :(S) Sollir Furryfoot : Hp(21/21) (M) Murhid : Hp (2/21) 4 points of dexterity damage(T) Taz : Hp (19/19),       Sheela : Hp (9/9), (I) Ivellios Nailo : Hp (26/35) (U) Ubaar : Hp (14/32), Endure fire (12 hours), 2 points of dexterity damage, poisoned ?(K) Kytess : Hp (18/28) Endure fire (12 hours) (J) Jalon Odessa : Hp (20/24) Endure fire (12 hours)</blockquote>
