Industrygothica's "Those Left Behind" [IC]

Shaimon Hu'u, barbaric human druid

As you open the door and decide on a strategy, you all notice that the balloon has NOT been restored, and hangs limply from the ceiling. A thin layer of dust covers the floor, and sends a small shiver up Jonas's spine.

Shai considers a moment. "Mother of spiders showed me a way to make men climb walls like her brood. Especially if you'll need your wits about you, Friadoc, it might be better to check the room from the walls and ceiling, maybe, to avoid the numbing dust?"

[sblock=OOC]referring to Spider Climb, of course[/sblock]

 

[Friadoc]

"I'm all for avoiding that cursed dust," says Friadoc with a chuckle.

"I'm all for avoiding that cursed dust," says Friadoc with a chuckle.

Digging in his pouch, Shai pulls his hand out and opens it. Stuck in a drop of bitumen is a wiggling spider. Shai whispers to the spider, and surprisingly, the creature stops struggling. He holds it out to Friadoc.

"Bottoms up, then," he says cheerfully.

[sblock=OOC]I'm not trying to be nuts here; turns out these are actually the material components the SRD lists, and it explicitly calls for them to be eaten. Blech.[/sblock]

 

[Friadoc]

Friadoc doesn't hesitate in eating the spider, in fact he tosses it straight back into the corner of his mouth and chews with vigor.

"Crunchier than grubs," says Friadoc with a shrug of his shoulders. "I've ate worse."

Friadoc will proceed to scout the room from the walls and, if needed, the ceiling, in order to see how safe it is now.

OOC

Oh, no worries. I, too, have read the components for spells, much to my chagrin, and tried not to think about it too much.

Plus, like Friadoc, I've ate worse.

 

[Scotley]

Rogash turns a little green, the thought of eating anything in this place turns his stomach, but a spider is more than he can bear. Hiding his discomfort he quips, "Hey Friadoc, try eating real food and maybe you get taller."

 

[Friadoc]

"Then what," asks Friadoc as he climbs. "Get one of those long beards to trip over?"

"I think I'll take the spiders," laughs the halfling.

 

[Mista Collins]

Smiling at the banter between the two, Tanith watches quietly as Friadoc moves across the walls to check the room.

 

[Scotley]

"You have me there sir, eat what you will, but continue with the spiders and you may develop a beard of webs." Rogash continues to stand ready should his diminutive friend run into trouble.

OOC : detect evil on the dust.

 

[industrygothica]

No evil detected. I'll post more tomorrow, when time allows.
