To the noble BORN 6/9/08 (finished)

Lily cringes as the rock bounces down the slope. She doesn't answer Rayburn's comment about arrows, afraid it would only serve to further give away their position. However, she does draw her longbow as she continues her approach.

Seconds tick past as you creep forward

Kerin you lose sight of the three in the lead, at the rate they are were going, they are at or nearing the edge of your charge range (100-120') close to half the distance to the flash.

You can still see Xaros at about 70' and off to one side.

Lily you draw the bow, are otherwise busy staying quiet and hidden. You can still track where all your companions are.

Xaros [sblock] keeping an eye on the fountain as you creep forward, you can tell that only the water itself is faintly magical, but that it loses that property as soon as it passes from the area above the stone. Your detect magic is still running [/sblock]


Cait and Rayburn [sblock]
Are the two of you slowing to stay with lily or moving ahead?
up ahead (at least 150' away) you both can see a man-sized spider with strange metallic gold fur. It seems to be wrapping something you can't see in silk.
OOC Perception 12+3 and 10+7.

OOC:
Lily stealth 17+1, perception 2+3=5
Cait: stealth 14+3=17
Rayburn: Stealth 10+8 = 18
Xaros: stealth 2+8 = 10

Rayburn slowly continues down the slope, stopping when he finds a good place that provides cover roughly 30'-50' further down the slope, then watches and waits.
 

Cait will move up alongside Rayburn and also wait. She considers surprising him but decides it may destroy their cover so she puts a hand on his shoulder and quietly whispers "Don't make a sound." She then grins at him mysteriously and her flesh seems to just...melt away. She shudders as the skin melts off and reveals a slim jaguar with bright green eyes and an almost mocking smile.
 

Lily continues her approach, still curious as to the source of the light. She will continue sneaking toward the area until she sees something or gets about 75' away from her destination, whichever comes first.

Keef, after collecting and tying the others mounts is now standing next to the fountain, examining it.
“So this must be what you were looking for, sir. What is it supposed to do?” [/sblock]

The Others [sblock]You all continue moving forward.
Rayburn, you don’t think your doing a great job, each snapping twig or shifting rock sounds magnified to you. Eventually you manage to get to some decent cover about 120’ away from it.

Lily you see some kind of man-sized cat slinking near Rayburn. He glances at it now and again as he moves forward. Lily & Xaros you can also a man-sized spider with metallic gold fur, wrapping something in webs. It finishes as you get into position and begins to haul a cocoon the size of a small dog into the trees. In the trees near it you see other cocoons, one large enough to hold a man. Lily sees something smaller, but also the color of gold moving among the webs.

Xaros is making some noise as he comes closer, but he seems to have attracted no attention yet. Xaros is about 40’ behind the group, and 20’ off to the left.
OOC:
Cait stealth 18 Perception 5+3
Rayburn Stealth 3+8=11 Perception 5+7
Lily Stealth 20+1 perception 19+3
Xaros Stealth 6+8=14 , perception 8+10 = 18

Seeing Xaros's bolt fly toward the creature makes Lily realize that it's time to prepare for battle. She casts a spell which enchants her bow with increased power, then advances 20' closer to the spider. She makes no attempt to be stealthy since the creature will be aware of their presence now.

[sblock=Spells/ooc]Lily casts Magic Weapon on her Longbow, changing her roll to:
MW Composite Longbow: +3 d6+2 20x3 (range inc. 110ft)

Also, exactly how far from the spider is she now?

0 (4): Detect Magic, Detect Magic, Light, Read Magic
1 (3+1): Doom, Magic Weapon, Obscuring Mist, (Sanctuary)

Spells active
Magic Weapon (20 rounds remaining)[/sblock]
 

[sblock=Keef and Evil Halfling]
Kerin pauses a moment. "I don't know Keef. We were sent to find this spring, rumored to be runnign again. It supposedly grants luck to those who drink from it, but no one truely know what it does" says Kerin looking at the floating spring in wonder.

Finally with a shrug Kerin leans forward to take a drink of the fountain, and afterwards gestures to Keef to do so if he wishes.
