Message: <blockquote data-quote="madriel" data-source="post: 26709" data-attributes="member: 439">This is a story from our last session.Half the party was woken up in the middle of the night by an awakened carnivorous tree (CC2).  It cracked open the cairn my cleric had stone shaped for our NPC guide and was stuffing the remains (long story) into its maw.The party drove it off but the barbarian was coated in its acidic blood.  The party's rogue stood guard over the two spell-drained spellcasters while the barbarian, paladin and monk raced after the retreating monster in hot pursuit.  Despite the fact that we'd just been through a major battle that evening.  The barbarian's armor buckles were melting from the acid and he was shedding pieces of it as he ran.The barbarian was grappled and tossed into the tree's maw which rapidly filled up with acid.  He spent the next three stabbing at it from the inside with a dagger.  The monk kept running up, hitting it once then lather rinse repeat for the rest of the combat.The paladin...ran flat out and just managed to keep them in sight at the very edge of the lantern's range the whole time without being able to attack.The barbarian punched his way out with the dagger after three rounds with the acid up to his neck.  One round away from suffocating to death.The paladin detected evil and found three more approaching.  The hairless barbarian dwarf had to pick up his missing armor on the fly as they hastily retreated.My poor cleric was awakened in the middle of the night to be confronted with a very battered, very naked dwarf badly in need of healing.All the stupid tree wanted was a midnight snack, f'crying out loud.</blockquote>
