[QUOTE="SnowleopardVK, post: 5825893, member: 6677945"] Heads. That was the north door. As soon as we opened it this little green and yellow lizard, about as big as a dog, came scampering up to us. It looked almost cute, but Roban shouted to be careful, and not to hit it with electricity. Now, I fight with axes, so accidentally letting loose a bolt of lightning isn’t generally a big concern of mine. I can see now why he was worried though. The little thing was cute, but as we tried to go around it this jolt of lightning fired off its horns and hit Suzume! She grabbed her sword of course and stabbed at the electric reptile, and the rest of us tried to do the same. It was small, quick, and had tough scales though, so I don’t know if Chimi and I even did any damage. The lizard seemed almost startled to be attacked, and it shocked Suzume again. After that me and Chimi managed to actually lodge our weapons in its back and stop the electric attack. Poor lizard had seemed almost friendly, so I feel bad about taking it out. We didn’t want it shocking us though. We decided to move on quickly, but through the next door we were hit by an overwhelming stench. This time I was the one who recognized the monsters in the room, troglodytes they were, and young ones from the look of it. The other three were practically gagging from the horrible smell, so I guess I tolerated it a bit better. The two troglodytes flung javelins at me right away, and let me tell you, the one that hit hurt a lot. The other three tried attacking the monsters after that, but they weren’t doing well coping with the smell. The two lizards ganged up on Chimi ‘cause she’d run up close with her glaive, and she took two claw slashes by the time I’d reacted. My axe dug deep into the closest one when I charged it, and Roban hit it with a blast of magic, finishing it off. I think Chimi and Suzume were trying to go after the other one, but by the gods was that smell ever throwing off their aim. Chimi actually lost her grip on her weapon and flung it halfway across the room! Bad timing too, the trog clubbed her on the head and she crumpled! I think I saw some of that watery samsaran blood dripping out from beneath her hair, but I didn’t have time to get a good look. Me and Roban were able to take the second troglodyte down quickly after Chimi fell, and Suzume ran up to check on her condition. We’ve holed up back on the balcony at this point. Chimi’s conscious, but just barely. Fortunately Suzume thought to pack healing potions before we left. She’s pouring one down Chimi’s throat now. Roban’s keeping watch at the door into the shocker lizard’s room, and I’m taking the time to detail our fights here in my journal as I stand watch at the other door on the balcony. I think after Chimi heals up we’re retreating down to the first floor and camping out for a few hours in the dead-end by the clogged stairwell.
