IC: Dichotomy's Age of Worms Redux, Part I

Trenton nods to Alexis, and attempts to leave the swarm without getting bit. He then heads straight to Alexis.
[SBLOCK=ooc]I tumble (+3) away from the swarm to not provoke. and move as fast as I can away from the swarm to Alexis. Unless, I am dead by then.[/SBLOCK]

Hopefully no mistakes this time...

Nav escapes the confines of the building and heads into the wet outdoors, calling to the others on his way.

Alexis bravely re-enters the building and prepares to heal Trenton.

Boldak busily prepares the oil.

Trenton almost falls on himself trying to manuever away from the swarm of spiders, but fortunately the tiny creatures can't take advantage of his slip.

Alexis calls upon divine energy, and Trenton's wounds close some.

Unfortunately, the swarm is able to cover the legs of both Alexis and Trenton. Though both warriors are able to resist the vemon, the bites tear hard into their flesh. Trenton looks even worse than he was before Alexis healed him.



[sblock=OOC]Nav: moves to 20' outside the door (there's no way he can grab your pack and still get outside); since, at the time of your move, Boldak is 30' straight outside the door, to be far away from him, you can just pick which side you are on
Alexis: moves to just inside the door; readies to cast CLW
Boldak: full-round action to prep the oil; I'll treat it the same as throwing a lantern... I'm not giving it to you as alchemist fire
Trenton: fails tumble (1+3=4), but still doesn't get AoOed
Alexis: readied CLW triggered; 3+1=4 hp healed; bad rolls...
Swarm: moves to cover Trenton and Alexis; auto swarm damage: A-3, T-6 (OUCH); poison fort save: A-19+3=22 success, T-13+4=17 success; save for nauseation: A-14+3 success, T-7+4=11 success

Init & status
Nav: 5 damage; 20' outside (presumably to one side or the other)
Boldak: 6 damage; 30' outside
Trenton: 12 damage
Alexis: 5 damage
Swarm: 4 damage[/sblock]

"Can't you do anything, man?" Boldak screams at Nav as he springs out of the building. The dwarf edges toward the scuttling mass attempting to determine when best to let loose his homemade incendiary.

[SBLOCK=OOC]Boldak will delay until after Trenton and Alexis. If they both move away, he'll throw the bomb from the best angle he can get on the swarm's current position. If they don't...[/SBLOCK]
 

Trenton quickly moves out of the swarm and out of the building. Gasping for air, he is unable to say anything, and covers his mouth for a cough. Those that turn, notice blood running down the sides of his mouth.
[SBLOCK=ooc] double move out, and in the same direction away from the house[/SBLOCK]
 


"This is NOT good." Alexis grumbles. A look of resignation washes over her as she moves outside away from the swarming spiders.

[sblock=ooc]Alexis double moves out the door and away from the rest of the people outside as best as possible.[/sblock]
 

While Nav and Boldak both wait to decide on their best action, Trenton and Alexis both flee outside.

As the bleeding warriors clear the path, Boldak closes to get in range and flings his makeshift alchemist fire. Unfortunately, he misses and the flask bounces inside the office, and the cloth torn from his shirt failed to light.

Braving the rain to get more food, the spiders follow outside. The vermin crawl atop of both Boldak and Nav. Boldak bleeds profusely and looks as badly off as Trenton. However, Nav fairs even worse and collapses, succumbing to his wounds.



[sblock=OOC]Nav: delays
Boldak: delays
Trenton: doublemoves outside
Alexis: doublemove outisde
Boldak: takes delayed action; I decided that you wanted to not have a range increment; if that was wrong, explain better next time; attack 2+3=5 miss; miss thrown weapon position roll 6 (NE of target); % roll to see if it lit-70, failed to light
Swarm: moves to cover Nav and Boldak; auto swarm damage: B-3, N-3; poison fort save: B-10+6=16 success, N-15+3=18 success; save for nauseation: B-18+4=22 success, N-19+3=22 success
Nav: stablization %-6 (lucky); stops bleeding

Init & status
Trenton: 12 damage
Alexis: 5 damage
Boldak: 9 damage
Swarm: 4 damage
Nav: 8 damage; unconcious but stable

On the crappy map, the black spot at the top is the door. I also just realized that I'd forgotten to mention the fact that you guys have been able to take AoOs agaist the swarm a whole lot. The point being that you all clearly realize now that your weapons or whatever you have can't hurt it (not that you'd been going that route).[/sblock]

Tears welling in her eyes, Alexis murmurs "Gods forgive me....I can't..." Her words trailing off into soft sobs, she turns and runs.

[sblock=ooc] Alexis run away and continues to do so until she can't anymore.[/sblock]
 

Looking around frantically for anything else he can throw at the the things and finding nothing, Boldak extracts himself from the mass of spiders. "He's already gone, save yourself!" he shouts after one last look at his new acquaintance. He puts as much distance as he can between himself and the swarm, running to the path and back to town.

[SBLOCK=OOC]Boldak runs right past Trenton, attempting to make himself an unattractive (i.e. further away) target for the spiders. If there are any streams we crossed, passed on the way, he'll try to use those to lose the things if they do follow him.[/SBLOCK]
