"Bad froggy! You hurd Phud. Now gid yourz."  In Phud's hands, the scimitar looks runty but the honed blade streaks through KT4 and cuts the kuo-toa down to dead ribbons as Phud hits a critical artery, dealing 20 points of damage.Seeing his failure, the red-cloaked kuo-toan cleric draws a hidden dagger from the sleeve of his robe.  After dodging the snapping jaws of the crocodile who reacted at the sight of metal flashing in the corridor, the priest tears his robes and guts himself, a look of failure draining from his eyes even as his life ebbs away.  In pain but not yet dead, the kuo-toan priest staggers to the floor, his dagger still in hand.Wyleck skirts around the back side of Arden and steps across the main chamber until he feels the safety of stone pressed against his side.  Content for the moment only to watch from safety, Wyleck holds off further action.  The summoned crocodile, however, has better things in mind and, with a hissing roar, snaps at the dying kuo-toan priest.  A look of pain intermingled with sweet relief crosses the priest's face as the crocodile darts forward for its repast, dealing 7 points of damage with one fell bite to the man's exposed innards.  Wyleck calls out to the half-orc, "Are there more on their way?  What say you, Phud?"Rowan rolls his eyes as he realizes the enemy are retreating, and moves forward into the chamber ahead. Stepping past Wyleck and behind Arden, Rowan continues to focus his will upon the summoned bat swarm.  The flying rodents settle upon the carcass of KT4, content for the moment with their feast.[sblock=Phud, Gerak]Looking down the corridor past the stone balustrade at the end, neither Phud nor Gerak spots any creature moving toward the main chamber or hiding within the limits of their sight.  The large stone statue of the lobster God within the room beyond obfuscates much of the room, but the red light given off from the statue's eyes (though not visible as a source per se) illuminates enough of the room that some details can be made out.  The room is large, shadowy, and whatever floor there is isn't within sight, as it must be on a lower level.  Across from the balcony at the end of the hall, the large lobster statue--some 70 feet in height-- sits on a stone platform with sets of stairs leading down off the platform.  There looks to be at least one door leading directly off the platform, to the left of the statue.  The door is closed.[/sblock]The crocodile and the bat swarm will remain unless or until dismissed by Wyleck and Rowan, respectively.  We are off initiative for the moment, so post at will.</blockquote>
