There are several places for the party to cross in this room.
Roderic manages to make it almost all the way across the river, when a monsterous centipede rushes down along the stalagtite he's holding for balance and tries to bite him, but fails.
Grok gets partway across the river, but slips on the slick riverbottom and gets washed 10 feet downstream before scrabbling his way back to shore. His upward view as he fell afforded him a glimpse of a monsterous centipede rushing down the stalactite he was holding onto.
John's loose clothing caught the current like a parachute and the current whipped him downstream 7 feet before he was able to claw his way back ashore.
Scrag used his greater mass and visual accuity to stay on his feet and avoid the centipedes alltogether on his way to the other side.
Since Rosalia was set to observe the others attempts at crossing, she easily spotted the two centipedes as they swarmed down on those in the river.
OOC: Try to avoid making assumptions about what rolls mean and the consequences of making or failing them. Tuk and Thrindar can make a spot check now to see if they are surprised, or ready as Rosalia is. If they succeed (DC 10), they get a partial action. Roderic has a partial action and he can move to get across the stream, stand and fight in it with another balance check, or do some other partial action. Scrag is on the opposite shore and is free to make a partial action. Rosalia is able to make a partial action. Grok is prone and soggy and has a partial action. John is prone, unaware of the centipedes, soggy, and generally hating life. Did I miss anyone?
