With the knowledge that these creatures are undead, all discussion of slipping past ends. So moving into positions, the group attacks
Toston sends a Fireball to the furthest creature and Gaffer casts a Wall of Thorns blocking the other in the alcove Wall of Thorns is 10x10x5 I interpreted the Wall to block the creature from spotting the group and kept it at 20'
The Crab thing hit with the fireball let out a shrill cry that hits your ears like an artic wind goes trough thin cloth. The Shell snaps back together and the creature stands to advance
The other shrieks as well, but what it is doing is hidden by the wall of thorns

"Still seems to be moving, Toston," Hmerrin observes drolly.
The fighter fires a salvo at the far undead crab thing. Arrows fly all over the place. Hmerrin growls something unprintable at himself.

As one of the creatures approaches, Gaffer calls for his Earth Elemental to move forward and attack it. At the same time he casts a second Wall of Thorns in the same makeup as the first, barring the path of Creature 1 and it's view of the party.

"Oh, that was not at all discouraging," Hmerrin remarks as the earth elemental is obliterated.
Like Dez, he moves in to attack. He's a tad more careful about it, bluffing his way forward with a shoulder shimmy and a quick step in an attempt to throw off the gargantuan crab's reach.
So concerned is he with his little dance, the fighter nearly forgets to swing his weapon upon reaching the creature. -- Move to P13. Fighting Defensively. Also Mobility Feat gives AC 38 vs AoO Power Attack And a Nat 1 - miss

Sarge tries again.
With a roar of effort, she yet again pushes toward T-8. Of course, now, she can only get to T-7, but she has every hope that someday she will make it.
She once again attempts to cast Searing Light. If she made it to T-7 this time, she should have line of effect to creature #2. She would like to use her rolls from yesterday, and hit Touch AC 25 for 25 damage if this thing really is undead.
[OOC: If those actions are not possible, I'd really appreciate something along the lines of "Sarge can't do X because Y." Otherwise it just feels like I'm being ignored.]

Sarge fades to the back, but Hmerrin keeps the cleric in front of him. Gaffer asks about the Daylight spell, From what Sarge and Toston can see, without the Daylight spell It would be completely black. Uneven and possibly slick ground is not something you want to try blind
At the rear, Hmerrin thinks he hears the chirp of what sounds like a very big cricket

"I took some of the pitons and rope Haldrick brought down," Hmerrin offers. "Once we get down to that narrower part, we can put some in for hand holds or even tie off onto."
The young man looks around, trying to figure out what direction that sound came from. "Not sure about tying off. There's something kind of large nearby, and we may need to do some moving about shortly.
"So, my vote is Gaffer keep the lights on, we move forward steadily and against the wall as Dez suggests, and one we reach that 10' wide section, use the pitons. Of course, if the ground starts getting slippery or whatever, we change plans."

On the Ceiling Round 1 - DM Dank Monday March 22nd, 2021 10:20:53 PM
With the gaping chasm on one side several suggestions are brought up. Stealth, roping up, some could fly, Wall spells some how... Hmerrin selects, Dez's move stealthily and at he narrow section, rope up with some piton hand holds. Gaffer's Daylight illuminates the area 60' all around him, so seeing where you are going is pretty simple.
As you enter the chamber, the sound of the waterfall is still ahead and quite distant. There is no moisture or wetness upon the ledge. The ceiling is covered in stalactites and Gaffer spies movement
Climbing through the stalactites towards party are spider things. 5 spider-like creatures skitter along the ceiling towards the party. They have 12-18 legs and large bulbous translucent bodies the size of a fully grown human.

Struggling along the narrow cliff, the normally longanimous paladin let's out an oath unsuitable to be written upon seeing the spider-like creatures coming towards them.

Escaping a Filament is a Standard Action. Toston cast Grease and then escaped and so could not also move
Toston is unable to slip away this time, and retrieves a piton from his Haversack Gaffer has seen this trick from some spiders and realizes the next step, He casts Wall of Stone along the ledge to assist in resisting the 'reel' that is sure to come Des is unable to break free of the Filament and reloads his Crossbow Standard Action to break free so i added what seemed logical Sarge moves up to Toston and casts Freedom of Movement on Toston Hmerrin drops his bow and lights up a torch

Des strikes and kills the spider BEFORE it is able to attack. Des, you are not poisoned and you were not damaged Toston casts Fly on Des, and the paladin only drops a couple feet bfore 'catching' himself. you can remain right where you are and be within 45' of all of them Sarge takes out her Rope of Climbing and quickly locates a location to secure and does so Hmerrin looks for a target and in teh light of Toston's Metamagic rod he spies one and fires. Hitting #3 Gaffer closes on the spider and transforms into a whirlwind as he does so. The winds buffet the thing, but does not disloged it hold upon the ceiling
Toston has a moment and a pretty good view of the monstrosities about the ceiling, he concludes that these creatures are also undead.

Sarge grabs the Rope of Climbing in one hand and her warhammer in the other. She does not plan to resist when the spider tries to reel her in; her plan is to whack the thing with the hammer when she gets there.
Sarge readies an action to hit the spider with the warhammer when she gets in melee range. If her ready goes off, she hits AC 22 for 11 damage.
Desdichado feels himself falling as he ends the existence of Spider-creature #2, and then is surprised to be suddenly floating in midair. "Whoa, thanks, Toston," he says, "That would have been one doozy of a last step. "And thanks for the tip about these being undead, too."
Feeling a bit disoriented at staying in midair, he weighs his options. Being naturally ungraceful, and used to wearing heavy armor, he's a bit unsure of how well he can fly. He quickly thinks that channeling energy might be his most effective option for the moment.
(Channel energy vs. undead: Spider 1, Spider 3, Spider 4 - 21 damage; Will vs DC20 for 10 damage)

[Sorry, I forgot to remove the armour part of my AC, which makes my AC stay the same, so one of those attacks should have hit.]
If still able to fly freely Gaffer will move between spiders 1, 3 and 4 to see if he can pull any of them into the whirlwind, making sure to avoid Des and Toston in the middle.
If he fails again at pulling any spiders from the wall he will revert to the none-whirlwind air elemental form. If he succeeds in pulling any free then he will move 15 feet below the ceiling and eject them.
