[Dr Simon]

The strange magic of the newcomer feels cold, but Annika's bite wound is almost completely healed. The spider bobs and weaves, assessing which target to go for - the flame-haired woman or the frost-haired man.

The huge spider gradually backs away from its attackers, its posture crouched low and self-contained. One huge hairy foreleg darts out and attempts to sweep Growling Ape's legs from beneath him, but the baboon form is too agile and executes a neat jump at the last second.

[sblock=Winter]
Winter has not come across anything like the huge spider creature before, making him think it may be some kind of unique demon (demon here meaning any kind of evil spirit creature, not anything to do with the Abyss). It looks like a fairly simplistic monster, however, little more than a huge spider with a bizarre appearance. He also realises that the dark cloud hovering over its back is the result of a spell, and not connected to the huge beast.

[SBLOCK=OOC]
Winter: CLW on Annika 1d8+2=4

Huge spider makes trip attempt on Growling Ape (it has Improved Trip, so no AoO), but fails.

Next up, Shakou, then back to Annika again.

[Theroc]

Shakou felt herself weaken drastically after the hit, and decided that discretion is the better part of valor... attempted to retreat from this being and perhaps bring attention to her plight. The venom was not fun at all.

[sblock=Stuff]
'Tumble' away from the demon-girl of doom and if possible charge the giant spider from a flanking position and pounce.

Tumble bonus=+10
BAB=2
Bite+4 claw attacks[/sblock]

 

[Dr Simon]

OOC: Shakou won't be able to reach the Huge spider in one go, because it is up on the web, now about 10 ft. above the ground. She could jump up and engage it with a single attack, or she could charge/pounce the Medium spider in front of Annika and Winter.

(OOC: That works, sorry, didn't realize the massive one wasn't on ground level. Help Annika and Winter, maybe they can help me with crazy demon chick, lol.)

 

[Dr Simon]

Shakou spins on her paws and weaves away from the pale, poisonous girl. The tiger turns her move into a charge, bounds across the canyon and pounces onto the back of the spider threatening Annika and Winter. Teeth sink into the creature and four sets of claws scrabble at its carapace as tiger and spider spin across the bone-covered floor of the canyon in an orange and black flurry.

When the ball of melee comes to a halt, it is Shakou who is victorious, dripping with dark spider blood. The spider, one leg twitching convulsively, is a crushed, torn mess.

High above, the spell-casting spider scuttles across the webbing to the canyon wall. All that is left is the huge spider, battered and bleeding, and the strange white girl, who has not followed Shakou on her mad dash.

[SBLOCK=OOC]0
Shakou Tumble 5+14= 19, success.

Charge, flanking for bite, two claws and two rake attacks. (+4 due to modifers, -3 due to poison)
Bite 11+6=17, hit for 1d6=5 damage plus sneak attack 2d6=8 damage.
Claw 3+1 = 4, miss.
Claw 13+1 = 14, hit. 1d3 = 1 damage plus sneak attack 2d6=10 damage.
Rake 10+1= 11, miss.
Rake 6 +1 = 11, miss.

Total damage dealt to spider is 24, enough to kill it twice over! That's going to be a pretty devestating tactic

Next up: Annika

[Neurotic]

Mystal, hanging just above the faces of great spider focuses and plunges his tiny weapon into one of the faces. He hopes these are not just ornamental armored shell, but some kind of eyes.

OOC: focused attack.

 

[Shayuri]

Annika grimly maintains her concentration, even as her magic continues to fade to just a flickering limelight around her. With a twitch of her wrist, she flicks another pair of ephemeral feathers of energy at the enormous, wounded spider.

(weaving 2 more 0 level slots for another magic missile. Please roll damage (2d4+2) for me, since IC is inaccessible until I get home tonight.)

 

[Blackrat]

Three Flowers is determined in bringing this abomination down and continues his assault.

 

[Shayuri]

(OOC - Okay, okay, I'll roll! 7 points of damage. Roll Lookup )
