Jocelyn gets clear, then casts Flame Jet again at 2 point strength to help free Clarence.

Mario readies the ordinary arrow from his never-empty quiver while trying (unsuccessfully) to suppress the spasm in his belly.

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 41):

Clarence scratches a tentacle with his knife...

In reply to Clarence Montague (msg # 42):

one tentacle is badly damaged, but it lifts Clarence off the ground!

Jocelyn you created the 2yd 2d flame jet, make an innate attack: jet roll to strike and deliver the damage.

Anything from Brodak?

Nodwin prepares a crossbob bolt and aims...

Mario grits his teeth and readies his arrow to the bow, draws and releases all in one motion;

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 44):

Nodwin's bolt and Mario's arrow strike the large thing in the water.  Frustrated, the creature throws Clarence accross the room;he takes 4 pts crushing before DR.

"Bro -- ulp! -- Brodak!  Chop -- urp!"

Mario continues to fight the retching as he readies his ordinary arrow.

The flame jet would have hit if the monster hadn’t thrown Clarence…

In reply to Jocelyn Lemru (msg # 47):

Jocelyn starts casting ...

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 54):

"Yeah, worth a shot. But I am partial to keeping my brains..."

He moves closer with his knife to protect those closer.

In reply to Clarence Montague (msg # 56):

as Jocelyn raises her fireball, Two thrashing tentacles lay into Charlene!

In reply to Thing in the pool (msg # 57):

Is Clarence close enough to assist blocking them?

Mario once more readies an arrow -- this time a silvered one -- between retching.

Brodak hacks at one tenticle.
