Reneg frowns at the ring of the sword. Why do people always assume the worst in these sorts of situations? he wonders. There certainly could be numerous reasons why he took the boat. Maybe he's using the boat to help out someone, guiding them maybe.

At any rate, it's better safe than sorry and he keeps his eyes open and cautiously scans the area, searching to see if there are any tracks that seem out of place.

Your keen sense pick up the sound of scuttling coming from somewhere under the pier. The wooden planks are set far enough apart for you to pick out the features of a large chitineous creature stalking under your feet. It seems to be hanging from the underside of the pier.

The noise quickly becomes quite loud and seems to come from behind and in front of you. There may be more than one beast underneath the pier.

OOC: The noise is so loud that everyone made a successful Listen check (except Gareth [I rolled a one]). Halmar, Reneg and Sheyla successful spotted the creatures. While Quinn and Lorien were not in a position to spot the creatures, they do spot something else inside the stone building (see below).

Quinn makes a quick sweep of the buildings interior and then freezes when he sees a worried look on Lorien's face as the bard looks up. The big gladiator follows the bard's gaze up to the wooden rafters of the building.

Weaved into the nets and gear is a large web. Then you hear the clunking of monsterous limbs clacking against wood from outside the building.

Lorien looks from the web to Quinn and nods. Guess the others found what weaved that web.

He runs out the building and starts singing a battlesong of Halmar's tribe, lifting the spirits of his companions.

[sblock=OOC]Move out and activate Inspire Courage. Everyone gets +1 to attacks and damage[/sblock]

After you begin singing, three monstrous spider-like creatures climb nimbly up the side of the pier between several of your companions. While Halmar stand between you and one of the monstrous creatures, you can clearly determine that it has a hard chitineous hide with sharp spines protruding from various places on its body.

[sblock=OOC]You are standing just outside the doorway unless you decide to move backwards. (Currently, you are 30 feet away from Reneg. See the map on the OOC thread.)[/sblock]

OOC: The three spider-like creatures attempt to bite. One against Halmar; one against Sheyla; one against Reneg. (Rolls to come in a minute.)

RE: At this point, only Lorien would have been able to make a AoO since the spiders initiative is so high.
 

The monstrous spider-like creature nearest Sheyla (I5) bites her leg with its slavering maw, drawing blood. Another one of the spider things (K5) bites Reneg as well, tearing at his torso. The third creature (F5) fails to bite Halmar, as the nimble barbarian-rogue easily evades the beast.
 

"Beware, another vile vermin crawling from th building!" Quinn manages to shout at this point, as he hears the spider walking on the roof.

Halmar roars with delight when the spider misses him and returns the favour in spades with his greataxe working in a blur of motion.

Your first blow fails to penetrate the beast's hard exterior but you split the beast in two with your second swing. Ichor splashes across the pier and onto Gareth, who still seems to be in a state of shock.
_____________________________________________​

OOC: Gareth is flat-footed (for the entire round), so your attacks aren't flanking attacks. Still, your second attack was more than enough to kill the spider. Well done! ;)

RE: Don't forget to add Lorien's Inspire Courage bonuses to your attack and damage rolls next time (+1/+1).

Sheyla

Drawing her longsword over the right shoulder, Sheyla wields it in both hands, as she drives it down upon the spiderbeast that just bit her in a mighty strike.


OOC: Draw cold-iron longsword (wield in both hands) and attacking the spiderbeast next to her with Power Attack 3 (hit AC 24 for 16 Damage; forgot Inspire Courage on the roll).

The blade easily penetrates the spiderbeast's outer exoskeleton, passing through its multifaceted eyes and grotesque body. It makes a noise like a combination of a scream and a cackle and then shudders once before falling onto the pier, dead.
