[OOC: It has been three days since my last post, so I thought I would chime in again to keep things moving, or at least lurching along.
So, to recap -- in Round 3, Tock readied an action to attack any of the centipedes in the corner as soon as it exhibited hostile intent, and he continued to watch them scrawl in the dust; Rejik likewise readied an attack, but against any centipede exhibiting hostile intent, in corner or elsewhere; and Aeiyan attacked (and hit) the second of the two centipedes that had wriggled free from the ceiling, and that both scurried toward Sulannus. She had slain one of them with magic, so he incapacitated the latter of them with his light hammer.
That made it the centipedes' turn: the final two of them on the ceiling broke free and dropped, with one going to menace Sulannus and the other going to menace Aeiyan. At that point, Rejik used his readied action against the one heading toward Aeiyan (is that the correct target?), and (still in Round 3) critted for automatic success and maximum damage. (End of Round 3, with the readied attack happening in response to the centipedes' action and movement.)
At the start of Round 4, Bartleby swung an attack at the centipede menacing Aeiyan. Bartleby missed. For narrative reasons, I choose to project that his miss was due to the fact that the target had already been taken out by Rejik's power stroke. (The dwarf was Ninja'd!) That leaves one (the final?) hostile centipede on the ground/floor, having used its action to break free from entanglement, moving toward Sulannus; it will get an action at the end of Round 4 if it lives so long. Still to act in Round 4: everybody but Bartleby, who already has.]
