IC: Dichotomy's Age of Worms Redux, Part I
- Thread starter Dichotomy
- Start date
As Nav flings his lantern, his aim is off. He manages to almost hit the northwest pillar. Fortunately, that is close enough. While most of the oil flashburns, leaving the wood safe, the oil that hits the tiny spiders fries perhaps a couple hundred of them with a satisfying sizzle.
Alexis follows suit, striking the closer pillar. Luckily no one is close enough to get burnt, except the spiders. She then moves to her pack by the door.
Boldak darts to the other side of Alexis and quickly digs a flask of oil from her pack.
Trenton frantically whips out a torch, flint, and steel and furiously tries to light the torch.
The swarm of spiders quickly moves to cover the floor all around the group. Hundreds of spiders bite at each of you. Nav and Trenton begin to feel sick, and Trenton also feels venom flowing into his body from the wounds. The warrior sags a bit.
[sblock=OOC]Nav: 11+2=13, miss; thrown weapon miss roll=7; splash damage=1
Alexis: 8+1=9, miss; thrown weapon miss roll=7 (again); damage=2
Boldak: I'll give you a move action to find the oil
Trenton: I'll give you both getting the torch and the flint/steel in a single move action (so nice of me); lighting torch with flint/steel is a full-round action, so you start it this turn with your standard action and finish next turn with the next standard action
Swarm: moves to cover all 4; auto swarm damage: A-6; B-6; N-5; T-5 (ouch!); fort saves for poison: A-9+3=13, success; B-16+6=22, success; N-16+3=19, success; T-6+4=10, fail, 3 STR damage
You each have to make fort saves at the start of your action because you are in the swarm.
A-13+3=16, success
B-16+4=20, success
N-2+3=5, fail
T-5+4=9, fail
Init & Status: [edit: for some reason my brain said Alexis was first...]
Nav: 5 damage; nauseated
Alexis: 6 damage
Boldak: 6 damage
Trenton: 5 damage; nauseated
Swarm: 3 damage[/sblock]

Spitting out a spider, Boldak stammers, "I had a reason to be here!"
He absconds with the oil while furiously beating the bugs off himself.
[sblock=ooc]Double move out the door, continuing in a straight line south.[/sblock]

Reeling from sickness, Nav makes his way into the corner away from the thicket of spiders.
Alexis makes her way into the wet outside and heals herself with a spell.
Boldak, having managed to grab some oil, follows Alexis out and moves by her.
Trenton, feeling the ill effecs of the spiders' poison and sickness, moves across the room.
The swarm of spiders follows its closest prey, and Trenton is bitten further by the nasty vermin. But this time, at least, he feels no more poison. Though he bleeds profusely, the warrior stays standing.
[sblock=OOC]Nav: moves to NW corner
Alexis: moves outside (I'll modify the map to include outside if needed); casts CLW on self: 3+1=4 hps
Boldak: double-move outside
Trenton: moves straight across room; can't light torch, since you only have a move action from being nauseated
Swarm: moves to stay on Trenton; auto swarm damage: 5; poision fort save: 12+4=16 success; save for nauseation: 8+4=12 success
Init & status
Nav: 5 damage; no longer nauseated
Alexis: 2 damage; 20' outside
Boldak: 6 damage; 35' outside
Trenton: 10 damage; no longer nauseated
Swarm: 3 damage[/sblock]

Visibly shaken, Alexis peers back over her shoulder and shouts, "Boldak do what you can with that oil. I'm going to try to keep our friend alive." She then charges back into the building.
[sblock=ooc]Alexis moves as close to Trenton as she can and readies to cast CLW on him when he's in range.[/sblock]
Alexis half-screams to Trenton, "Trenton move to me, I can't get to you on my own." and stands ready.

"I saw a miner do this to a kobold once... I sure hope it works. Get the damn things over here, and we'll light them up," advises the young dwarf. He rips a piece from his tunic and begins stuffing it in the oil bottle.
[SBLOCK=OOC]Boldak takes a full round action to prepare alchemists fire from the oil bottle.[/SBLOCK]

Nav yells out, "There is more oil in my pack for anyone that wants to fetch it!" and then double moves outside, staying as far from Boldak as possible. "I hope you "reason" doesn't get us all killed "General"!"
[sblock=ooc] Nav moves to get away from the bugs leaving his pack behind, unless there is anyway that he can grab it on his way out. and...NW is the on your other left, if you're being consistent with my last move at least. However I don't think that it really makes much of a difference as far as the move is concerned.[/sblock]
