While the group is on the beach, making plans on how to go through the forest, Ben suddenly dives at topspeed down the path, yelling: "No bugs, no bugs no bugs no buuuuuuuuuuugs!" Jollunia, who was still hanging on his arm, was dragged along and dropped down a little ahead. Stillgem, still in the big man's arms is carried along. Dural and Flynn dash after the halfogre, running headlong down the path. Jollunia gets up and also continues running down the path. Drithmyne grabbed the cat, placing it in his satchel, before running down the path himself. Resa and Larrock, deciding they do not want to be seperated, finally decide to follow behind the rest as well, Resa carrying the chest Larrock was moving around with.
Flynn and Drithmyne follow close behind Ben, but Dural, hampered by his short dwarven legs and Jollunia, hampered by the rope on her shoulders, slowly fall back, losing sight with the lead group. In no time, little yellow worms are crawling all over Ben's body, only adding to his panic. With the big man providing as a shield for the other two, Flynn and Drithmyne are somewhat free of the worms, only occasionally attracting one, which they sweep away without too much troubles.
Jollunia is farther back however, and the rope on her shoulder is also hindering her movement. It doesn't take long before she too, is completely overcome by the itchy feeling. Dural, not hindered by weight and not going as fast as the people at front manages to dodge most of the leaves, and with Jollunia paying close attention, he manages to be mostly wormfree.
Resa, thick clothed, is catching a lot of the worms on her clothes, but only few of the worms manage to pass those and reach herself. However, the chest she's carrying prevents her from using her hands to sweep of the worms, and soon, more and more worms get through her clothing. The hot temperature and thick clothing is going to fatigue her very soon. Larrock, staying right behind the woman, manages to evade most of the worms, wiping off the few that catch on to him.
The thing following the first group heads on and suddenly is quiet. Flynn and Drithmyne, who payed close attention, are more or less able to pinpoint it's location, but Ben, in full panic, simply heads on. When he passes the location where they think the thing is, a large reptilian head shoots out onto the path, grabbing hold of Ben's right leg (4 dmg). Ben's massive strength and running speed are too much for it to hold however, and he manages to break free. Drythmine and Flynn see a reptilian creature standing on the side of the path, a lightgreen skin with lots of yellow places all over it. It's standing on two strong rear legs, while the 2 front claws don't seem to be much use other than balance. The creature seems to be about 4 foot in height. The length cannot be measured as it's back is still sticking in the forest. Ben is 5 foot beyond the monster. Drithmyne is 10 foot in front of it and Flynn is 15 foot in front of it.
Resa and Larrock are just catching up with Dural and Jollunia when the second creature screams with a highpitched voice, before jumping out of the forest on top of Dural. Dural gets overbeared by the creature and falls down, flat on his stomach, with the creature standing on his back looking with big eyes at Jollunia. A long beakshaped mouth marks most of his head and a small slithering forked tongue is moving left and right through the small opening. Jollunia is 5 foot before the monster, Resa is 10 foot and Larrock is 15 foot.
OOC: If Ben, Jollunia or Resa wants to attempt something that requires concentration, such as casting a spell, they need to make a concentration check against DC 10. The groups are too far away from each other to interact within a round. A better description will follow when you got some time to examine the creatures in peace.
Initiatives:
Larrock - 18+4=22
Flynn - 15+6=21
Jollunia - 17+2=19
Dural - 12+6=18
Resa - 16+2=18
Ben - 18+0=18
Drithmyne - 9+3=12
. Following round he'll strike with a normal attack.
