Message: <blockquote data-quote="Richards" data-source="post: 9180215" data-attributes="member: 508">In tonight's "Ghourmand Vale" session, the PCs discovered a fight between a dozen svirfneblin and a dozen drow on a bridge 40 feet above the surface of the water we were traveling on in two folding boats.  We took out the drow (mostly in one fell swoop, when our druid cast transmute rock to mud on the section of bridge the drow were standing on), then got attacked by 4 driders on the ceiling.  Our archer was taken out almost immediately by a strength-draining spell that made her too weak to even pull back the string on her magic composite longbow, and our shield guardian was useless as the driders stayed on the ceiling, but we took them out mostly without the svirfneblins' help (one of them managed to hit one drider, once, with 12 crossbow bolts attacks each round the whole time we were fighting them - that was it), and after we had risked our lives and limbs killing the driders, all the svirfneblin had to say was, "Nice job on the bridge" in a sarcastic tone of voice.  That got my sorcerer's blood boiling, but it's a common reaction from NPCs with this DM - he likes to have just about everybody we meet complain about us or bad-mouth us in some way, which is really getting kind of old.  (I'll be discussing this with him tomorrow at work.)Johnathan</blockquote>
