Escaping the Labyrinth

*Surprise Round*

Ryash positions himself even as Darius is grabbed by the tentacle. Fortunately, the dragonfire adept is able to bring his flaming breath to bear, roasting the tentacle, though something about the creatures skin seems to resist much of the burn.


[sblock=Initiative]
Rhokkan
Anabelle
Ryash
Octopus
---
Savlin
Carl
Darius
I'll ask that Rhokkan, Anabelle, and Ryash post for the first normal round(Anabelle allready has), then I'll update with the octopus, and from that point it'll just be 'party goes, bad guys go' as the order continues repeating.

You can only sever the tentacle with a sunder check, which requires an opposed attack roll. As such, no Area Effect can sunder. I will give you the ability to hurt it with the Breath Weapon (transfering damage from tentacle to creature), but not sunder.
Reflex vs Breath (1d20+8=15) It fails, taking full damage, though you recognize some sort of Fire Resistance protecting it.
Just for the record, as a knowledge check After the fact, you realize Electricity might be most useful against it (it could channel through the water).[/sblock]

Since initiative is cyclicle from this point on, I'll assume you all just go in whatever order you post (Unless you say you're readying/delaying till after someone else), then the badguys go. If there are problems with this, please post them in the OOC thread.

Rhokkan's mighty blade splashes down and slices deep into the the attacking monster, though only one of his attacks was able to find it through the water.

The entire party is suddenly engulfed in darkness, but before any of them can react, it retracts down the hallway, leaving everything the way it was, though none of you can see Anabelle anymore.

Ryash ensures his positioning is correct before blessing the party.

After his spell has gone off, the two octopi continue their assault, the left one flailing tentacles at the troll while it pulls back and the one on the right drags Darius down into the water with it!

The beast had a miss chance from Rhokkan's melee attacks this round, being underwater.Miss Chance (1d100=7, 1d100=72) 1 of each (Second hits, but crit doesn't confirm).

Octopus tentacles vs Rhokkan (1d20+10=20, 1d4+5=8, 1d20+10=22, 1d4+5=9, 1d20+10=12, 1d4+5=6, 1d20+10=26, 1d4+5=8, 1d20+10=23, 1d4+5=9, 1d20+10=28, 1d4+5=9, 1d20+10=22, 1d4+5=6, 1d20+10=12, 1d4+5=6) It hits twice, for 17 damage total.

Grapple (Octopus vs Darius) (1d20+15=29, 1d20+8=15)
Constrict vs Darius (2d8+6=11)
Darius is now 5' underwater in the octopus' grasp, and it constricts him for 11 damage.

Please note that both are now 15' from the path. The left one surfaced to attack Rhokkan, but the right one is underwater (Along with Darius). [/sblock]

Carl retreats upward a bit and blasts the octopus which has surfaced on the left.

[sblock=ooc]5' step upward if it looks like he's in tentacle range, otherwise 20' move.

I assume the octopus is no longer in melee; if it is, add -4 to Carl's attack roll.

beshadowed blast 26 to hit touch, 40 damage + Fort DC 22 or blind for 1 round[/sblock]
 

Savlin puts Fellfrost away and draws his longbow, moving past Rhokkan to leave the troll room to maneuver.

[sblock=ooc] Move action to sheath longsword, move 10' past Rhokkan, drawing longbow on the way. [/sblock]
 

Darius manages to wriggle free of the creatures grasp, spending a moment to figure out which way is up...

OOC: Still need actions from Rhokkan(Renau1g) and Ryash(Rayex) ALso, WD see the OOC thread.
