Yttermayn's "Saga of the Dragon Cult" (IC)

[Scott DeWar]

John stops scratching suddenly with a worried look, then quickly puts a strong face on and stands at the ready with his staff held at the ready to travel deeper into the caverns.

 

[Yttermayn]

When the group moves ahead, they find the moisture that has been ever-present so far in the rest of the caves is more and more absent as they forge ahead. The constant dripping fades to a less troublesome level.

OOC: Listen checks please, from those who move ahead.

Tuk's hearing improves for reasons unknown to him.

[Voadam]

Jakobee notices John's preoccupation and scowls. The dusky skinned man shakes his head but doesn't say anything, returning his focus ahead.

 

[Yttermayn]

Thrindar and Toby, Roderic, and Tuk hear the distinct sounds of many scuttling little feet on hard stone, rapidly getting louder from up ahead. [sblock=Scrag, John, Rosalia, and Jakobee] Simultaneously, you all notice something strange. Grok appears to react to something from up ahead at the same time Thrindar, Roderic, and Tuk react. However, Grok drops his mace and draws a dagger. The dagger bears strange markings and is of an exotic design, and none of you have seen anything like it. From his place out front, Grok turns toward the rear of the party with a pleasant smile on his face. Without warning, he draws the blade across his own throat! With black glistening blood spraying out from the wound, he screams "OBEY TSATHZAR!" and runs at top speed back the way the party came.[/sblock]
[sblock=Thrindar, Roderic, Tuk]Five more beetles appear out of the darkness, closing in on the party from the front. Shortly after their appearance, Grok drops his mace and clutches his head, screams something, and runs at top speed back the way you came from. The beetles are nearly upon you.[/sblock]

Everyone roll initiative.
