The air on the other side is unpleasantly warm and moist, and narrow corridor has been replaced by a large, roundish cavern covered with a thick buildup of greenish mucus. At the rear of the party, you hear Rupert declaring, "...heads are all barm-- ewwwww!", followed by a squelching noise and an outraged yip. It is hot here, uncomfortable so, and each of you are soon broiling in your respective habiliments, though the humidity is such that sweating brings no relief. The place is murkily lit by some unseen source of rust-colored light that casts a bloody tinge over everyone and everything.Flaust barely has time to get her bearings before the rest of the party comes piling through behind her, panting dogs, growling badger, slimed kobold and all. She moves forward a little so they don't plow into her, keen eyes darting about for signs of a welcome, friendly or otherwise....As the party sorts itself out, a large form is spurred to movement in the shadows of the far corner, and a surprisingly long, gray arm-- covered with dripping boils and scabs --reaches out into the light. The horrid arm beckons you a little closer, then bids you to stop. Now that you can see the shadowy form more clearly, you wish that you couldn't. Gray, flabby skin stretches tight over long, gangly bones in some places, yet hangs in multitudinous folds in others. Yellow, pus-filled eyes stare out at you but seem to see nothing. The thing stinks of age and disease.Its mismatched jaw ops as if to speak. Then the twisted creature gives a heavy, wet sigh. "I've been waiting for you for a long, long time," it croaks.<a href="http://s92908152.onlinehome.us/hellbound/image.pl?shamiq.jpg" target="_blank">Daru ib Shamiq</a>Flaust: [spoiler][Flaust rolled Spot 5+11=16, Listen 17+7=24] To her left and right, she can just make out narrow crevices in the rock that look like they might be passages to other chambers. Other than the creature's laborious breathing and the sounds of the party behind her, she hears nothing else.[/spoiler]</blockquote>
