[QUOTE="industrygothica, post: 3731262, member: 23298"] The agile halfling is able to draw his quarterstaff and give the things a good whack, but the staff just bounces off and he struggles to keep his grip against the tightening tentacles. He thinks he can hear his staff bounce on the stone floor as consciousness escapes him. Rokelsh's luck in avoiding the tentacles has run out as a pair of them swirl up his legs and hold him fast to the ground. The determined warrior grits his teeth and manages breaks free before the things do any real damage. As Jonas's hands are mostly free, he says a prayer to Heironeous, asking for the strength to break free of his bindings. His prayer is granted, and as the power of Heironeous flows through him, he pulls himself free with a guttural roar. The tentacles grab at him again, but he rips free easily. After several more seconds of struggling, the dwarf Rogash is finally able to slither away from the rubbery tentacles, but not without taking a little damage. Shai struggles wildly against the many tentacles hold him to the ground. He can see that Friadoc and Dyspeer are both unconscious, and the determined wizard Tanith is starting to fade. [COLOR=Magenta] "Get to the others!"[/COLOR] he yells frantically, valliantly, to those that have freed himself. Almost as soon as the words came, Shai finds himself splat on the floor, gasping for a deep breath. Friadoc and Dyspeer both lie motionless in a heap, but freed at last. The bewildered wizard pulls herself to unsteady feet. [COLOR=SandyBrown]"What tha..."[/COLOR] The words escape her as he watches the last of the tentacles fizzle out of sight.
