[QUOTE="Dr Simon, post: 4858145, member: 21938"] Ape doesn't seem to be getting through to the spiders, as they begin to move in even as he adopts a non-threatening posture. One drops down from above, right next to him. Annika blasts it with a fiery feather, causing it to shriek in an alarming, un-human fashion. A heartbeat later, White Lotus slices through it, and it collapses to the ground, leaking dark blood. The huge spider lumbers forwards, with a smaller compatriot scurrying alongside it. There is still a spider riding on the back of the giant creature. Growling Ape finds himself illuminated by the ghostly green light emenating from the huge spider, and feels a brief clench of fear in his stomach before he steels himself to the task at hand. Behind the group, one of the giant spiders scurries down the other ramp-like web, pausing to squirt a strand of webbing in your direction. It is not clear who it was aiming at, as the web falls far short. High above, the remaining giant spider scuttles along a strand of web, upside-down. It too fires a stream of sticky webbing that also fails to strike anyone. [SBLOCK=Shakou] Shakou, weighing up her options, notices a ghostly figure appear in an otherwise un-noticed cave entrance, somewhere to the rear left of the canyon (about C5. The cave is small and about three feet off the ground. The figure could be a slender white, very hairy, ape, possibly). [/SBLOCK] [SBLOCK=OOC] Growling Ape Wild Empathy 5, fail. Of the spiders, #1 moves down web, fires webbing, miss. #2 drops on web strand from 20 ft. up (green web to ground level). #3 moves along strand of purple web (30 ft. up), fires web strand, miss. #4 rides huge spider #5 moves down orange web. (Note, that web joins the ground at row 13) I assumed #2 to provoke the readied actions of Three Flowers and Annika Annika - magic missile on 2 for 2d4+2=9 damage. Three Flowers - scimiar attack 16+5=21, hit. 1d6+2 =4 damage, kills it. For Mystal Mar, I currently place him on the green web (you can reach any higher web by hanging strands), but you may wish to change this. The huge spider moves forwards, causing a Will save from Growling Ape for the ghost light. 20+6=26, passes no problem. Shakou is yet to act in this round. [/SBLOCK] [/QUOTE]
