This time, though, his spear deflects off the creature's scales, doing no damage.Seril steps back and to the side, further from the dark-scaled lizardman. He quickly launches another pair of arrows, but with much less luck this time around. In his haste, he fumbles the first arrow, dropping it to the floor; the second missile deflects off the hard scales of the creature.Abel readies his mace but stays back, letting his foes come to him.Intent on keeping a wall of similarly large creatures between himself and the over-sized lizardfolk, Helios enlarges Zeddicus. Unconsciously continuing his orderly retreat, the wizard jumps in suprise when his back hits the corner of the entrance.The shining beetle appears and gets in position, waiting only for Talshia's command. She readies her crossbow then, fitting a bolt and hefting it up to aim at one of the three lizardfolk in back. She calls out as she does in Celestial for the beetle to show these creatures its power!The ivory and gold carapace peels up in two halves, showing a pulsing, segmented body beneath. The beetle whirls and sets itself with its abdomen pointing up and at the three lizardfolk before it. There's a sudden loud 'POOM' noise, and the lizardmen are showered with corrosive viscous green slime! At the same time, Talshia looses her bolt. Her bolt is wide, completely missing the target, but two of the lizard folk cry out as the beetle's acid burns their skin.Zeddicus, finding himself larger than the lizard beast before him, strikes out with his longsword with a powerful two handed blow. The blades sheers through scale, tearing a horrible wound across the creature's chest. It remains on its feet, but blood flows freely from the deep gash as it directs a swing of its heavy club at the warrior. The weapon deflects off the man's force screen, doing no harm.The other three lizardmen charge forward. The first one strikes the beetle with a powerful overhand blow of its club, crushing the celestial creature. The beetle slowly begins to dissipate into a mist of silver and gold.The last two rush right past the dead bug to attack the enlarged Sandor and Zeddicus. Sandor nimbly avoids the attack from one, but Zedd is not so lucky. He avoids the worst of the blow, but can still feel his ribs pop as the heavy club grazes his side.Initiative OrderSandor 19, attack vrs LM2 12 (failure)Seril 17, attack vrs LM2 "1" (failure), attak vrs LM2 15 (failure)Abel 17, readies actionHelios 16, wand of enlarge on Zeddicus, 5' adjust backTalshia 14, attack vrs LM3 8 (failure)Celestial Bombardier Beetle 14, acid spray<s>LM1 14</s>Zeddicus 12, attack LM2 27 (threat), confirm crit 14 (failure), damage 17LM2 12, attack vrs Zeddicus 12 (failure)LM3 12, fort save 4 vrs DC15 (fail - 5 damage), charge vrs beetle 23 (success), damage 20 LM4 10, fort save 4 vrs DC15 (fail - 4 damage), charge vrs Sandor 13 (failure)LM5 5, fort save 19 vrs DC15 (success), charge vrs Zeddicus 27 (success), damage 9Current PC Status:Seril 40/40Helios 41/31, mage armor (4h09m), false life (4h15m)Abel 37/37Sandor 38/38, enlarged (49 rounds)Zeddicus 25/38, enlarged (50 rounds), force screen (9 rounds), AC24Talshia 26/26, AC16, mage armor (4h09m)Beetle DEAD![sblock=Opponent Status - PCs do not look]LM1 -5/26LM2 9/26    LM3 21/26LM4 22/26LM5 26/26[/sblock]</blockquote>
