[QUOTE="Tecklenburg, post: 6684350, member: 6781356"] I feel the pull of the Bladesong. It is almost a living thing, a symbiote. It wants me to step through worlds, disappearing and reappearing as the spider's filaments futilely strike the wall where I just was. But I trust my instincts and quickness to carry me through. I through my body back in a bridge at the last moment... [sblock]Defy Danger (Dex) 3, 2 + 2 = 7 Success but a worse outcome, hard bargain, or ugly choice.[/sblock] I use my elven blade to - hopefully - hack the webs from my other arm so I can bring sword and spell to bear against the creature when it closes to melee. [sblock]d8 damage. Rolled 1...[/sblock] ... Alright, as the spider closes, I scowl. Feeling the pull of the Bladesong, I step through worlds, disappearing and freeing myself from the webbing, reappearing from the momentary portal on the other side of the spider. I unleash... [sblock]Master's Bladework (Int) 3, 4 + 3 = 10 d8 damage and 3 techniques. 7 - 2 = 5 damage. [B]Burst * 2[/B]: Your attack deals an additional 1d4 damage and gains the ‘forceful’ tag. 3, 2 = 5 damage. Dead spider. [B]Soul-Siphoning[/B]: Your attack heals you for 1d4. Heal 1d8 instead if this attack kills your target. 4 HP returned to me.[/sblock] I shout to those above “…we’re clear” as I sheathe my sword. I navigate the ramp down to the web where the treasure lies and retrieve the body with the elven armor and the potion. The husk of the desiccated corpse is barely held together by clothes and armor. I delicately bring it to the ramp and lay it down thinking of the long-dead Winter Fey elf in life and death; [I]a beautiful warrior such as this doesn't deserve such an unfitting and ignominious ending[/I]. I then carefully crawl to the magical sword and grasp its hilt, bringing it over to the ramp and lay it down beside the body. [/QUOTE]
