Still positioned behind the rock, Mak saw another ghoul step up to engage Kiwina. With a little luck he'd take that one down as easily as the last. Mak pulled back his bow and let loose with an arrow and hit(G3), but only because the monster moved into his line of fire. The strike was a nasty one and Mak was hopeful it would be enough to down the creature. With a half step to the other side of the rock in front of him he fired two arrows at the other ghoul (G4). The play of light and shadow on the reflective surface of the shallow water and the slippery floor made the shot difficult and he missed as the wooden shaft bounced off the rock walls and ricocheted into the darkness. Mak's third arrow was steadied better and struck the undead abomination. Mak didn't see the arrow, so it could have struck the creature in a non lethal location.

Mak looked both ways and considered moving from behind the rock, but for the moment he stayed put.

Elyas sees the ghouls clump up and rubs his hands together, then produces what looks like a little marble

I've been wanting to try this one out for a while now! he yells, throwing the tiny marble at the ghoul in the back. the cavern erupts in a blast of fire and light as all 4 ghouls are caught in a fireball!

Rolth flies into a rage and lashes out at the nearest ghoul, striking a killing blow and nearly removing the creature’s head.

Kiwina spears the one in front of him and it too falls dead.

With the front two dead, Mak shoots into the back area where the dim light limits him (20% miss chance.) Still his arrows find purchase, and once again another ghoul drops.

Falco sees the foes falling and looks to see if his friends need healing.

Likewise, Elyas withholds his fireball seeing that most ghous are dead. (Per email, Damien said Elyas would hold off if most are already dead.)

Tzak waits for another to approach. He finds he does not need to wait long.

The last one splashes forward. It emits an eager whine, a ghoulish smile on its face as it lashes out at Tsak. Tsak is hit hard (crit) and takes 19 damage. The blow also knocks him off his feet (tripped - prone) and Tsak must make a DC 12 Fort save or be paralyzed.

(FortSave=9, FAIL)
Tsak lies in shallow water, dazed. He tries to lift himself up, but finds he can't move.
Panic flares and threatens to take hold. Thoughts race through his mind, but all he can do is watch the chaos thru rigid eyes...

Mak saw Tsak go down and moved (S27) quickly and fired an arrow at point blank range at the ghoul. The arrow hit the ghoul but Mak wasn't stopping. He planned to pull Tsak out the way in a moment and keep his head out of the water.

OOC: Mak missed. I totally didn't see he rolled a 1 to hit. Well crap...revised post.

Mak saw Tsak go down and moved (S27) quickly, but the slippery footing made him slide and grab hold of the rock formation at his right. As he did so the arrow went wild and slammed into the roof of the cave. Down on one knee Mak clutched at his leg as the pain from his old injury made everything else fade in his mind. Through all the pain he reached forward to pull Tsak out of the water and away from the ghoul as soon as he could.

Tsak, what are you doing laying there." Falco wades though the water to get closer and channels to heal those near Tsak since he cannot make it all the way for a heal spell.

Elyas gestures and speaks arcane words of power as missiles composed of pure force sink deeply into the ghoul’s grey flesh before they vanish.
Kiwina moves up and attacks, sinking his trident into the thing. It screams in pain.
Rolth lashes out with his glave, cleaving the creature twice, killing it with his first blow and making sure with his second.
Tzak falls paralyzed in the shallow water, unable to move. Esmerelda gives him a look and then shifts to stand guard over her fallen friend.
Mak sees his friend fall, but holds his shot as Rolth has already killed it.
Falco steps over as healing energy washes over everyone.

As things calm down, the loudest sound is Rolth’s enraged breathing. But as you listen, you hear some faint growls and yips echoing through these chambers, sounds you did not hear before, sounds that are almost drowned out by the waterfall behind you. The sounds seem to be echoing from both passages - to the east and the south. Six dead bodies are now piled up here. Yech.

And speaking of drowned, someone might want to make sure Tsak’s face is out of the water.

If the growls don't seem too close, Rolth will drop his rage for now. He'll listen carefully to see whether the growls are coming closer. If so, he tiredly suggests, "Maybe we should set up on each entrance, positioning so that only one can emerge at a time, but several of us can engage each one. The shooters and casters can stay in the middle, able to strike where needed. It saddens me to treat these former taurs so roughly, but I see no way around it. Anyone have any idea how long Tsak is going to be out of action?"

If the ghouls are approaching and the Petals agree to his plan, Rolth will position himself at T/U-27/28 and cast a mirror image on himself before they arrive.

Perception = 33 to gauge whether the enemies approach and when they will arrive.

Tsak feels hands reach and pull his head out of the water. Automatically his body takes a breath, his mind is still racing. He feels a wave of energy roll over him and some of the pain dulls but he still can't move.

Esmerelda stands resolutely beside Tsak. She is wet all over and it will take her hours to clean her fur, but for now her eyes stay on the strangely still ranger.

Mak sat in the shallow water with Tsak's head in his lap. His bow was forgotten as it half lay-leaned against the rock at his side. "What's wrong with him?" Mak asked, being unfamiliar with ghouls and such.

OOC: Being untrained in KS: Religion and the DC for determining the abilities of a CR1 Ghoul 11, he can't make an untrained check. This would also be the first time he's seen ghoul paralysis.

Elyas examines the smaller passage that nothing has come out of yet.

Well, you all wanted to go south, let's do that still. I will seal this passage off at least for the moment, so we don't have to deal with both flanks.

Elyas weaves a complex symbol in front of him with his fingers entwined, and a thick gooy spiderweb forms, clogging the passage for 40 feet.

As long as ghouls haven't found some torches in this watery cave, that should keep them out for a while

Mak makes sure Tsak doesn’t drown (sorry I missed that.) He’s very worried about his friend.
Kiwina holds his position.
Tzak lays there, grateful for Falco’s healing and Mak’s ministrations.
Falco again heals his friends.
Elyas casts webbing down the nearer, more narrow passage.
Rolth listens carefully to the noises in caverns. To his trained ear, these seem to him to be the sounds a liontaur might make, but they’re not...right. There is no intelligible speech, just low grunts and growls. They dont’s suggest fighting or pain. They seem to be quieting down a bit, but he does not think they are getting closer or farther. Rolth moves up a bit and casts a spell. (Forgive me for changing Rolth’s move, but were we at a table this would be more coordinated, so I gave you the benefit of the doubt on this.)

Except for some occasional grunts or whines and a splash or dripping sound in the distance, all is quiet. The moist air holds the smell of death … and something else that’s hard to place.

Go ahead and take three rounds of actions. Kindly keep track of your spell durations. And I encourage you to read each other’s posts before you post/move.

Mak spent a few moments drying off his bow after Tsak recovered then pulled himself slowly out of the water. As he leaned against the rock outcropping he pulled out his flask and took a long draught of the fiery substance within. When he had collected himself he recovered his arrows (the ones that hit) and moved along with the others as he kept pace with Falco.

Rolth drinks a potion, casts a spell, and moves up. Kiwina is close behind, along with Falco.
Mak cleans his bow, takes a drink, and moves up.
Elyas lights up his dagger and moves up.
Having been left paralyzed by the others, Tzak awakens in the dark. Fortunately, his dark vision lets him see that faithful Esmerelda is by his side. As he stirs, the cat lets out a happy little yowl.

As the party splashes forward in the cavern, the other sounds seem to cease. Or maybe the noise from you all masks anything else. The air is moist and foul. Ahead you see what look to be patches of dry floor.

(It’s tough to have a cavern in a play by post game and not have it completely drag, so please take two rounds of actions. Glad to have Tsak back in action.)

Mak sat in the darkness talking to Tsak, more to comfort himself than the ranger since he couldn't see and the cave was full of ghouls. When Tsak started to move the archer breathed a sigh of relief and helped him up.

With a hand on Tsak's shoulder Mak moved up with the ranger in the dark to join the others.

After what seems like an interminable length of time Tsak finds that he can move his eyes to look around. A short while later he wiggles his toes then his fingers. Then, quite quickly stiffness dissipates and he is able to move.

He looks up at Mak who is cradling his head out of the water Did you at least get me a ring so we can make it official?... No really, thanks brother, that was kinda scary there for a bit.

Tsak makes his way to his feet, which is complicated by the attachment of a very wet and bedraggled cat that lands on his chest as he rises. He spends a moment giving the loyal animal the cuddle she deserves and then they move to catch up with the rest of the group.

DM Mark - Tsak's Back! 
Saturday October 3rd, 2020 1:22:14 AM

Rolth creeps forward slowly. He listens, but hears little beyond the party moving up.
Falco moves up behind Rolth.
Kiwina also moves forward, but his sharp ears hear more - there are...things ahead in the dark. He hears a faint breathing, more like a quiet rapid painting, of several creatures.
Tzak regains control of his body again. Mak is looking over him in the dark. He gathers himself and stands. Kindly move up on the map.
Mak makes sure Tsak is alright, and sits with him in the dark as he wakes. Then the two move forward. Kindly move up on the map.
Elyas - not sure where Elyas is - he seems to have disappeared from the map.

Rolth notices that he has left some of the slower ones behind. He pauses for a moment to allow Tsak and Mak to catch up a little, giving Mak a grateful thumbs up for taking such good care of Tsak back there. He then quielty moves ahead again, sensing some wider open space ahead.

"Slow down, there's something up there," Kiwina whispers. He follows until he gets to a point where he is going to have to squeeze to get into the next chamber, then lets the smaller folks past. He listens intently, trying to make out more details of what might be in the dark beyond.

Mak took advantage of Kiwina's offer to slip past him and took a position behind Rolth. As he moved he clutched several broken arrows in his hand and tossed them down in disgust. Can't trust that one eyed merchant, lousy so and so sold me bad arrows. If I see him again he'll pay. Must have gotten lucky with those others, old bean, but if we don't wrap this up soon I'll be down to using my old pig sticker.

Rolth moves up a bit, making sure the others can catch up. He peers into a large room.
Kiwina moves ahead, but leaves room for some of the smaller members to move up as well. He warns the others he hears creatures ahead. Listening, he can still hear some muted sounds, but they seem to be quiet.
Tzak moves up with Esmerelda, glad to be able to move again.
Elyas moves up by Falco, providing what light he can and wondering aloud how far these caverns extend.
Mak moves up, looking at a broken arrow. This arrow should not have broken. The merchant in Chessford had told his these arrows were special, made by a centaur master fletcher. They really should have held up better.

The light sources are in the back, so the light here is dim, but not a problem for Rolth’s low light vision.

Then, without warning a liontaur scrambles in from the south end of the larger room ahead. The feral thing stinks as it sinks jagged teeth into Rolth’s shoulder for 10 damage. Rolth must make a DC 12 Fort save or be paralyzed.

You hear an angry howl echoing beyond you. Something you cannot see is mad! Other angry howls join it.

Cursing his laps of attention Faloc realizes he is no longer behind Rolth as intended. He quickly spends the next few seconds catching up so he can see what happened.

Rolth laughs as the ghoultaur sinks its teeth into one of his three mirror images, causing it to wink out.

(OOC: As before, a 1 on the die or 1-50% will hit Rolth, others go to images. Just in case this ghoul had some way to ignore the mirror, I rolled a save anyway and got a 21 = success)

Rolth's laugh turns to a snarl as the fighting rage rises within him. He launches a series of powerful attacks at the ghoul. (Enter rage, power attack)

TImid as he was about pushing into the next chamber of the cave, Kiwina is not in a position to do much to help. He can see Rolth, but not the creature attacking him. But maybe he can help. "I'm going to light up the chamber very briefly in case it helps."

Kiwina casts flare, causing the burst of light about 20' on the other side of Rolth (about AJ-32). He isn't targeting a creature that he knows of, just causing a flash of light that might let them see what's beyond.

Kiwina is trying to see what he can from his angle, too. (Perception = 34)

Elyas stays back a bit, not wanting to get in the way. hearing more coming, he decides this is a good time to pull out the stops. a familiar feeling comes over the whole group as their limbs move faster and their senses feel slightly more attuned.

Rolth makes a couple of attacks, and with the second swing of his mace, the creature falls!
Falco moves in to get a better position.
Kiwina cast Flare, and a sudden burst of light causes a few surprised cries from creatures around the corner to the north.
Mak nochs an arrow, but holds his shot as he sees Rolth’s foe fall.
Elyas casts Haste on everyone.
Tzak stands ready with Esmerelda by his side. (I posted before you, so move Tsak up if you wish before your next move.)

Rolth is the only one that can see them, but some more liontaur ghouls are briefly lit in the distance by the flare. They seem to pause and pull back a bit from the bright light. Everyone hears their howls at the Flare.

With his newfound speed, thanks to Elyas' spell, Rolth is able to close the distance to the nearest ghoul, and still take a swing with his morningstar. He'll have to trust in his mirror images and speed to keep him safe until the others can reach the fight. In the meantime, he has hopefully bottled up the ghouls so that they cannot reach his fellow Petals easily.

Short legs and water can really work against you sometimes. All Falco can do is keep moving to stay close to those in front.

Rolth charges in and smacks a ghoul.
Kiwina, Tzak, and Falco move up.
Mak moves and shoots at one of the things.
Elyas rushes in and cast a spell. (And the DM groans because he has to deal with the grappling rules.)

The ghouls howl as rubbery, black tentacles spring up from the floor around them. All are grappled and take damage. They all struggle against the tentacles, but the one in front attacks Rolth and misses. The tentacles mindlessly wrap around the ghouls, squeezing them all.

Mak saw Kiwina surge forward to engage the one that would have no doubt attacked him a moment later had not the centaur intervened.

Elyas laughs, the sound echoing off of the cave walls making it sound much creepier than his laugh would be under normal circumstances. he moves his hands and the tentacles continue to crush the ghouls.

CMB (including the bonus to continue the grapple) = 25. (20 for any creature entering the mass of tentacles for the first time this round, if any)
each ghoul will take another 7 damage.

Elyas then flings a dart of acid at one of the ghouls in the second rank (G3 assuming that the melee guys are finishing off the front two).
17 vs touch AC (forgot to add haste in the roller)
5 acid damage

Kiwina stabs at one of the ghouls with his longspear.
Tzak shoots the nearest with his crossbow, killing the thing even as mindless tentacles grapple the body.
Rolth vents his frustrations on it nonetheless.
Mak threads the needle, shooting between the two taurs, killing
Falco admires his friends abilities.
Elyas laughs, gesturing as if he were controlling the tentacles. Then he flings acid at G2 as his initial target G3 dies. Oh, and then so does G2 now.

The black tentacles continue to wrap around living and dead ghouls in their midst. It’s pretty creepy. Since they are already grappled they are easy prey for the tentacles.

You hear cries from the grappled ones, and howls of frustration from some that are unseen.

Everyone watches to see the continued effect of the Black Tentacles. And it’s a pretty grizzly sight as they are being held in place and squeezed to death.
Kiwina send another Flare into the back of the room. The flash briefly captures each ghoulish face in a mixture of hatred and terror. It also elicits a shriek from those in the room, and some unseen voices as well.

The Tentacles continue their mindless assault.

(Didn’t see a post from Tsak or Emrys, so I decided to just wing it on the tentacles.)

Rolth watches the spectacle with a tinge of remorse since these ghoul to look like liontaurs. But just a tinge.
Elyas fires off an acid dart at one. Hit aim is wide and he sees it cause one of the tentacles to burn and bubble.
Tzak fires two more bolts at one, hitting it. (Loading a light crossbow is a move action and Haste only grants an additional attack action. Be sure to keep track of your ammo. Bolts tha thit are lost, and those that miss have a 50% chance of being reusable.)
Mak steps up and asks for a bit more light.
Kiwina watches.

One of the ghouls manages to pull away from the tentacles with a howl and moves out of your sight to the left. Must be a passage that way. The others are not so fortunate and are slowly being strangled.

Rolth, Tzak and Mak all ready actions to attack anything that breaks free of the tentacles.
Falco offers to cast Light on Mak in a way that’s most helpful. (I’ll assume Mak has light cast on a shoulder piece of his armor unless I hear otherwise.)
Kiwina and Elyas wait for the tentacles to do their work.

They do not have to wait long. The two remaining ghoul die horribly. And even though they are dead, the mindless tentacles continue to grapple and squeeze all the ghoul bodies. Some begin to have certain fluids and solids squeezed out of them. The smell gets worse.

There is a low growling and whining coming from up ahead, unseen.

The light emanating from Mak's left shoulder seemed to help the man quite a bit as he moved forward ahead of the group. Though he knew nothing of ghouls and ghoul fever he looked for prisoners of the ghouls or those suffering from ghoul fever as he suspected the noises were coming from those trapped here for some abominable purpose.

Elyas waits a few more seconds to see if any more creatures come from passages where the party can't see them yet and into the waiting grasp of the tentacles. if nothing comes after another 2 rounds, Elyas dismisses the tentacles.

with those noises ahead I am sure that was not the last of these we will see. if needed I can do that little trick a couple more times today, so don't range too far ahead. wouldn't want you to get grabbed by one of those lovelies

DM Mark - More Ghouls! 
Wednesday October 14th, 2020 7:51:48 PM

There is some discussion about what to do next. The party resolves to wait to see if anything happens in the next two rounds. There is some growling and whining from unseen foes, and the tentacles continue to squeeze the dead bodies - which is pretty gross. But nothing else happens.

Then Elyas dismisses the tentacles, and there is a rush as more ghouls run forward.
(Not sure how Mak wound up where the tentacles were, so feel free to place him where he would be.)

Feel free to move yourself to where you would have moved during those two rounds before the Black Tentacles spell was dismissed. The DM will assume any ranged attackers would have readied a standard action against the expected ghouls as they rush up, so go ahead and take a single attack action as appropriate, and then take your full round of actions as well. This excludes Elyas since he could not have readied an action.

Rolth inspires his friends and then lashes out at the ghous as they come, hitting the first one several times. It falls.
Tzak shoots twice at the next one. Hit second shot buries itself in one of the creatures knees, making it howl as one leg goes lame.
Elyas throws a fireball into the middle of the pack. Most are able to avoid the worst of it, but still one in the back falls.
Mak is ready for the onslaught. He lets fly several arrows killing the rest. (Wow. He needn’t shoot that last arrow.)
Falco is ready to shoot, but finds that Mak got to it first. He saves his arrows.

The ghouls charged out, and in the blink of an eye all lie dead, some twitching a bit. But definitely dead.

The area is quiet, though some occasional drips can be heard. (Perception DC 25: Highlight to display spoiler: {You can hear a faint, strange burbling noise echoing from a distance. Then another burbling noise seems to answer back? Hard to tell.})

Mak reached behind his head and ran his fingers through the bunch of arrows in his quiver as he did a quick count. He then swung his pack over and withdrew enough arrows to refill the quiver. As he did that his hand lingered inside his pack as he counted the ones remaining within.

Elyas smiles as more ghouls fall, and stops to listen now that the fighting seems to be done for now

I hear it too. certainly doesn't sound like ghouls. hopefully not something big and scary covered in tentacles?

Kiwina keeps an eye out for attacks from the rear.
Rolth moves forward, as does Mak.
Rolth, Falco and Elyas all hear some strange sounds, and think it may be some sort of conversation. They describe it to Mak, but no one can identify the sound or any sort of creature that might make it.

(I took the liberty of adding to the map and moving everyone up. I generally avoid moving your PCs, but I’m trying to balance that with keeping things moving.)

As the party creeps forward the depth of water varies from a few inches to a foot or two in places. You walk past the webbing that Elyas created. The water here looks foul and matches the smell in the moist air. There are also patches of wet earth and stone that are not covered in water. Here and there are parts of liontaur bodies that have clearly been gnawed on.

Survival DC 15: Highlight to display spoiler: {You see liontaur foot prints here and there, but also a strange footprint - webbed with claws.}

As the party splashes forward, the burbling in the distance stops.

This all took place over four rounds, so track spells accordingly. If you decide to not continue as I assumed, feel free to stay put or leave this place as well.

Rolth whispers to Falco that perhaps he would be safer behind the front rank, where he can still do his Sarrific magicks. To Mak, he nods and whispers, "You were right that they might have gotten behind us, but I guessed lucky about where they would get behind us from...well, ok, I was really just not interested in squeezing into the narrow tunnel. I suppose that's all just water over the falls at this point, eh, old bean?"

Could we tell which direction the wet voices were coming from before they stopped? Or see any clues in the dry cave floor ahead of us?

"I suppose I'd feel the same about climbing a rock face, old bean." Mak replied to Rolth with a slap against his bad leg as he rushed forward onto the dry ground and turned to look down the leftmost passage, bow up, arrow nocked, and ready to loose it anything scary looking.

Falco keeps his eyes moving, searching for the source of the noise as they move up. {Perception: 26} He nods at Rolths comments.

"I figure keeping some of the big bodied folks between myself and the front constitutes as second line. If its more undead the power of the Warper-sar is effective but the range is not far. Still you are correct."

He falls back leaving a bit of space between himself and Rolth.

[I can't tell on the map, but are thoe three different paths out of this room other than the one we came in on? or are some of those dead ends?]

Elyas looks around, shining his light on the walls of the cave, looking for the path forward.

which way do the odd tracks look like they are coming from? or going to?

Rolth moves up and looks at the tracks.
Tzak moves up as well. (Mak already placed himself in that spot, so I moved Tsak back a bit.
Kiwina casts a flare down one of the passages. He hears a strange burbling cry from that direction.
Mak moves up to look down one of the passages and readies an action to shoot anything scary. He’s not sure what would make these kind of tracks.
Falco moves up, listening carefully as he goes.
Elyas asks which direction the tracks seem to be going.

Rolth and the others can tell there are several creatures with webbed tracks here, and the tracks seem to be all over the area, to and from the three passages from this chamber.
For Kiwina, Tsak, and Falco: Highlight to display spoiler: {Most of the prints here are webbed feet. In addition, there are some snake-like or perhaps tentacle-like slitherings as well.}

Mak suddenly lets loose his readied arrow as a strange wide eyed, frog-like creature rushes toward him with a guttural, burbling voice. His shot hits. The thing claws at Mak, but Mak’s armor protects him.

More of these creatures come burbling into the chamber, wet skin glistening in the lights the party has.

Webbed claws rake at Tsak, hitting him twice for 10 and 8 damage.
Rolth is also hit once for 11 damage.

Kiwina moves up beside Rolth, but finds himself hemmed in by the unnatural surroundings. So he targets D6 with a storm burst for 6 points.

The storm burst deals 1d6 points of nonlethal damage + 1 point for every two cleric levels you possess. In addition, the target is buffeted by winds and rain, causing it to take a –2 penalty on attack rolls for 1 round.

Four of the creatures came out of the darkness at the archer. The ferocity of the attack surprised him a bit and he suddenly found that he and Tsak were surrounded. With Tsak to protect his flank Mak drew his bow back and fired as many arrows as he could down the passageway.

Rolth lashes out at the one in front of him, killing it.
Kiwina casts a Storm Blast at the next closest one, disorienting the thing a bit.
Mak shoots. The creature in front of him claws at Mak, missing. Mak does not miss.
Falco shoots twice and hits.

The weird frog-like creatures with soulless eyes move up, burbling to each other as they go. They are intelligent and seem to be working together, carefully moving up. The ones near Mak move up 5’. The ones near Tsak make only 5’ moves, avoiding provoking attacks, even as more come in from the back area where Kiwina cast a flare.

Mak is attacked twice - both miss.
Rolth is attacked four times, and hit twice for 10 and 8 damage.
Tsak is attacked four times, and hit twice for 10 and 10 damage.

Rolth breaks into a rage at the sight of additional frogmen threatening his friends. One of his images winks out when the frogman attacks, but the 2nd attack slips through, doing 4hp damage to Rolth and 4 to Falco (Shield Other.)

With a burst of speed from Elyas' spell, he launches a series of power attacks at D8, shifting to D6 if the first drops.

Arrows flew down the passageway and zipped past each of the frogmen except for the first one and Mak dropped that enemy quickly enough. It helped that he had gotten an attack a moment before when he turned the corner. The frogmen closed however and started taking swipes at the archer, but he was quick and managed to avoid the claws of the second in line as he stood over the body of his associate.

Mak was going to draw his shortsword due to the close quarters, but he felt the familiar surge of speed in his actions that told him Elyas had come to the rescue once more.

"May your god bless you!" Mak called out to the wizard as he brought his bow up and loaded the first arrow.

He had been careful as he ducked about, but with the aid of Elyas he was emboldened and took more careful aim at the frogmen in front of him. His first arrow was dead center on the beast, as was his third, the second and fourth arrow was lost to him in the darkness as he threw himself to one side to avoid the nasty swipe of a claw.

Elyas casts Haste on the party (technically he’d have to step up 5’ to catch both he and Tsak in the 30’ proximity limitaton.)
Rolth goes into a rage, killing one foe and hurting another. Rolth’s fur is a mess, covered in gore from the ghouls and … and whatever these things are.
Mak shoots, and is himself hit for 9 points of damage by one of the things. Shafts fy from Mak’s bow, dropping two more.
Falco casts Hold Person on one in the back (D11). He can see the frog-like creature go rigid, it’s face frozen in an expressionless gaze.
Kiwina hits the nearest one several times, driving his trident into the thing’s chest in a final killing blow.

The big, frog-like things move up carefully. Tsak seems to pose little threat to them so most focus on the bigger threats. Tsak is attacked by one, but it misses

Kiwina is attacked twice, and is hit once for 9 damage.
Rolth is attacked and hit twice for 8 and 8 damage.
Mak faces two foes that move up to hit him. Only one hits, clawing the archer for 11 points.

Unlike the ghouls that showed hatred, rage and even some fear, these things seem to have no emotions that you can tell. They may wince a bit as they are hit but that’s about it. And they continue a burbling, croaking conversation of some sort.

Tsak fires a bolt at one of the creatures (D12). The bolt sinks into the monster with no discernable effect. Tsak drops his crossbow aiming to draw his falchion for his next attack.

Blood ran from Mak's face and arm where the frog creatures had managed to claw at him as he fired his bow into their ranks. There was only one remaining in front of him and his vision was starting to cloud over from the life substance running into his eyes, so Mak set his feet and brought up his bow once more even as he knew the act might give the frog man an opening. He'd have tried to step back but the ground was just too slippery.

Elyas laughs at Mak's comment. If you want to thank the gods, Falco's the one you should be talking to! this, sir, is the power of science!

as he says this, he holds up an outstretched hand and four lights fly from his fingers and streak towards D12

Seeing Rolth and Mak both injured Falco moves forward a small bit and calls on the power of the warper-sar to heal his companions and ignore his enemies. (Channel 8) the results are disappointing.

Tzak shoots one of the things, drops his crossbow and draws his falchion.
Rolth strikes the creature in front of him twice, killing it.
Mak shoots, provoking two attacks in the process. Mak is hit for 8 points of damage. Then he kills one and then spins around to kill another.
Elyas declares himself to be a man of science, and then uses magic to fire bolts of force into one of the things in the back.
Falco moves up a bit and channels 8 points of healing to his allies.
Kiwina attacks the creature nearest him, hitting several times.

Most of the frog-like Deep Ones have fallen. Still, three remain.

One attacks Rolth twice, hitting once for 9 damage.
Another carefully move up toward Mak, untroubled by the wet terrain, attacking twice and hitting once for 9 damage.
And one stands there with the same impassive look of others doing nothing, still immobilized by Falco’s spell.

(TsakAttack1=26, Dmg=7; TsakAttack2=7, miss)

Tsak slashes out at the giant frog thing in front of him (D12). Again he hits, but the creature seems to register nothing. Tsak wonders what sort of minds drive them? Are they controlled by someone/something else? Distracted he misses with his second swing. He tries to interpose his body as much as he can between the monster and wounded Mak.

Esmerelda yowls and hisses but dares not pass between Rolth and Kiwina as hooves, blades and fang continue their deadly dance of death.

(OOC Is Tsak close enough to recieve the heal from Falco?)

Rolth gruffly thanks Falco for the healing, even as he is hit for 5hp more damage (and 4 hp to Falco via Shield Other.)

He launches more powerful attacks at D7.

Mak's attacks had been successful, but he'd taken a few injuries as well due to the closeness of his attacks. Another swipe at his arm and a lucky attack that caught him in the head. The two creatures paid for it as Mak's arrows pierced them and laid them low. Then came Falco's channeling magic that helped with the wound on his arm however as he brought his bow over to sight another of the froglike creatures.

"Thanks to the Warper-Sar!" Mak called out as he sighted on the one that moved around Tsak to come at him.

Four arrows shot out of Mak's bow. Each found their target with the last hitting the held creature.

Seeing that Mak is still bleeding Falco realizes that he must continue to be a healing battery even if he is running low on favors from the Warper-sar. He connection to Rolth, sharing damage, gives him some feedback but he can see Mak is more injured.

{Channel Positive: 8}

Elyas throws a blob of acid at one of the remaining creatures, but misses badly, hitting a wall.

Tzak strikes at the thing near him, hitting it.
Rolth strikes the creature in front of him hitting him several times, killing it.
Mak shoots, provoking an attack which misses. Mak kills his nearest foe with his first arrow, and then turns his remaining arrows on the held creature. His second shot finds an eye socket, and the thing’s head jerks back as it falls dead in the turbid, shallow water.
Falco looks to the condition of his friends.
Elyas had planned to lob some acid but holds back as the last foe falls.

Except for the heavy breathing of our heroes in this place, all is quiet. Well, mostly quiet. You hear some dripping, and maybe something else.

Perception DC 15 Highlight to display spoiler: {You hear some distant chittering or clicking.}
Perception DC 25 Highlight to display spoiler: {That chittering or clicking almost sounds like laughter. You also hear some quiet splashing sounds in the distance.}

The air is thick with moisture and the smell of death, as these things’ blood stains the water here. There are 12 of these dead things laying in the water around you..

What now? I added some additional areas to the map - don’t venture into the “white” area, but otherwise work together let me know where/how far/how fast you go.
