[QUOTE="iserith, post: 8692697, member: 97077"] I've had three recent retreats come from a group I play with occasionally (as opposed to my regular group). In the first retreat, the paladin and barbarian were just getting eaten alive by a swarm of acidic beetles and a core spawn crawler. The rogue and the druid, sensing defeat upon them, fell back to around 60 feet. The paladin and barbarian died and, due to their distance, the rogue and druid were able to get away since the creatures' senses were limited to a particular radius. In the second occurrence, the PCs delved deeper and found the hive of the beetles that killed their friends, threw them some rations, and ran past the hive to another area to explore. Just past that hive, they found a flooded section of the dungeon and decided to go in with only a [I]dancing lights [/I]spell for light and the caster up front (you heard me right). The sorcerer was killed by a water weird, plunging the whole mazelike area into darkness. The party ran (or rather swam) with the druid splitting from the party. The water weird chased the druid down and killed him while the others got away. [/QUOTE]
