Maelicent creeps back into the crystal cavern but stops halfway along the left wall when he realizes that the stalactite creatures are no longer hanging from the ceiling at the intersection of the northern passageway and the cavern. Try as he might, Maelicent cannot spy the wily creatures. They've moved and the things blend in too well to spot at the moment. Maelicent keeps his arrow trained on the ceiling and continues to look for the stalactite creatures until Gamad enters on his heels a few seconds later. Movement above Gamad's head catches Maelicent's eye just as one of the damnable stalactites scuttles a fraction of an inch then drops from the ceiling, the pointed tip of its stalactite-like body aimed for Gamad.
The stalactite drops directly onto Gamad's shoulder with unerring aim, dealing 8 points of damage to the dwarf. Gamad feels the flesh in his shoulder burn white hot with pain as the creature starts to secret some sort of acid into the flesh wound. Maelicent, who'd been waiting for just such an opportunity, takes aim at the creature impaled in Gamad's shoulder and fires the arrow he'd had notched. The arrow shatters the stalactite creature, causing bits of calcified shell to spray in a small explosion like a broken bit of china being dropped to a tiled floor. The hunk containing two eyestalks remains intact and the eye-tipped appendanges flail wildly on the cavern's dirt floor.

[sblock=Ambrus]Maelicent's Dexterity modifier is +4 but on his sheet you have his Initiative as only +3. What gives? I've given him the +4 for this round.[/sblock]
[sblock=Voadam]Please indicate what Voadam does with his torch. The last thing I have him doing is being careful that the fire did not go out in a sudden gust of breeze billowing up from the tunnel. The torch is currently still lit.[/sblock]
