Edit: sblocks are working again!Peladus thrusts his staff through the loops on his pack, then raises his crossbow, moving closer to Midias.[sblock=Midias]You become aware of a soft sucking, slithering sound, somewhere to the west, and not far away at all.[/sblock][sblock=Ngikhnit]Suddenly the light shifts oddly, or you somehow tilt your head just right.  In open space, far from anything to hide behind, you see the shadows writhe and twist together, creating a form where a moment ago, there was nothing at all.It is black, or perhaps a yellow so dark you would call it black.  Its flesh, if that is what it is, is wet and leathery.  It is unimpressive in size, no bigger than a human, and closer to the ground, but it keeps to no single form.  One instant, it bears a resemblance to a humanoid figure, the next it collapses on itself into a hunched shape, then it spreads out as little more than a fungoid mass.  Thick appendages reach forward, rippling at their edges as they contact the stones, and pull the bulk of its body forward.  But at all times, no matter what its shape, two questing tentacles twitch spasmodically in the air above the creature.More important than this immediate impression is that it is writhing directly towards Midias and Peladus, no more than ten feet to their west.[/sblock][sblock=Pendrake] For a moment, you think you see... no, your eyes are playing tricks on you.[/sblock][sblock=Quozen]Again your vision clears, or you re-learn the trick of seeing the creature.  Now, it is crawling directly towards Midias and Peladus, no more than ten feet from them.[/sblock][sblock=Maps]Midias,Peladus,Pendrake - as before, except that Peladus is now immediately to Midias' south.[sblock=Ngikhnit]<img src="http://a.imageshack.us/img826/1372/ngikhnit12.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[/sblock][sblock=Quozen]<img src="http://a.imageshack.us/img826/2218/quozen12.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[/sblock][/sblock][sblock=OOG]Midias is up, though of course it's a free action to speak at any time.  Walking Dad, in light of new information, you can change your action in #182, if you wish.Init order:Midias    <--NgikhnitPendrakePeladusQuozenUnknown Thing[/sblock]</blockquote>
