Re: 10:32am Iceday, 8th week 852s

SILI moves into the stairwell and sees the head of a giant centipede staring at ZEIG. The floor is also moving in some parts, but he's not quite sure why at a glance.
17:52, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 12 using 1d20+3. Know (nature).

MILO bites the giant centipede, then runs up the stairs and joins DAI's side.
17:54, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 10 using 1d6+4. MILO bite damage.
17:54, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 24 using 1d20+6. MILO bite vs. #1.


The giant centipede climbs up and furls itself back up against the ceiling of the basement out of view.

The massive swarm of larvae moves up the stairs, covering ZEIG completely, almost able to make it to SILI. Hundreds of tiny little stings and bites begin to coat ZEIG's body.
18:03, Today: teslas rolled 6 using 2d6. swarm damage vs. ZEIG.

I'm not sure how accustomed to fighting swarms you guys are, so forgive me to break immersion and copy this:

Distraction (Ex)
Any living creature that begins its turn with a centipede swarm in its space must succeed on a DC 13 Fortitude save or be nauseated for 1 round.


Round 2:
14: SILI
14: MILO
14: Bad Guy(s?)
 8: ZEIG        - Swarmed
 4: DAI         - Poisoned x2

Zeig nearly vomits when the maggots cover his body and struggles to move up the stairs and out of the basement.

Sili moves out of the stairway (10 ft.) and tries to get Zeig to go faster. (+1 Initiative/round for 3 rounds).

MILO follows DAI.

The small swarm of larvae make it up and out of the stairwell, coating SILI completely.
19:06, Today: teslas rolled 10 using 2d6. swarm damage vs. SILI.
19:07, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 10 using 1d20+6. Fortitude vs. poison (forgot).
They dig into his skin, some burrowing under. He feels his skin burning, and then his extremeties start to become numb.
19:08, Today: teslas rolled 3 using 1d4. dexterity damage.

They continue to spill out, almost reaching ZEIG.

Round 3:
14: SILI        - Poisoned x1
14: MILO
14: Bad Guy(s?)
 8: ZEIG        - March
 4: DAI         - Poisoned x2, Readied Action

21:28, Today: ZEIG rolled 10 using 1d8+7. Heal.

DAI nods, and decides to put his focus on the bugs that were present for now, tossing another dart of fire, this time aiming at the bugs and hoping he didn't set the floorboards aflame.

19:10, Today: DAI rolled 18 using 3d12+8. damage.
19:10, Today: DAI rolled 19 using 1d20+6. Fire(RTA)(PBS) vs swarm.
Getting a little tired on these damage rolls...it's like why bother using Fire at all?

19:10, Today: DAI rolled 15 using 1d20. 12-14 conserve.
MP 23/54

And that's the second conserve I've failed by 1 on...but I guess ZEIG has it a bit worse, and we are likely leveling from this fight so may as well burn up the MP.

Re: 10:32am Iceday, 8th week 852s

Several dozen, of thousands, of the insects pop and sizzle, but for the most part it looks entirely unharmed. You get the idea you may have to use some kind of area of effect magic to harm enough of them to have any chance of dispersing the group.

SILI, read above about that DC 13 Fort save you get to make at the start of your turn. Also keep in mind that you get a +4 Sacred bonus from ZEIG because he loves you.

Round 4:
14: SILI        - Poisoned x1, Swarmed
14: MILO
14: Bad Guy(s?)
 9: ZEIG        - March
 4: DAI         - Poisoned x2, Readied Action

23:51, Today: SILI rolled 24 using 1d20+8 with rolls of 16. Fort (DC 13).

Sili holds it together and goes further into the room, away from the swarm. (5 ft. step left-down). He plays his song for Dai...

23:54, Today: SILI rolled 14 using 1d20+13 with rolls of 1. Perform (Harp) (March on Dai).

...but there are icky bugs on his harp and he has to shake them off.

Re: 10:32am Iceday, 8th week 852s

SILI trudges through the horde of insects, ending his movement in the same situation he started it.

MILO is a bit confused, and holds his ground.

The swarm stretches out between ZEIG and SILI. It's is now in an 'L' shape.
22:12, Today: teslas rolled 8 using 2d6. swarm damage to SILI.
22:12, Today: teslas rolled 5 using 2d6. swarm damage to ZEIG.

22:13, Today: teslas, on behalf of ZEIG, rolled 9 using 1d20+7. Fortitude vs. poison.
22:13, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 21 using 1d20+8. Fortitude vs. poison.

22:14, Today: teslas rolled 3 using 1d4. dexterity damage.
SILI is able to resist the poison, but ZEIG is not.

Round 4:
14: SILI        - Poisoned x2, Swarmed
14: MILO
14: Bad Guy(s?)
 9: ZEIG        - Poisoned x1, March
 4: DAI         - Poisoned x2, Readied Action

"Move to the west, I'm going to force them back!"

Zeig takes a 5' step south and readies himself to activate the Staff of the Deep towards the NE after Sili moves out of the way.

You forgot something


23:08, Today: teslas, on behalf of ZEIG, rolled 26 using 1d20+6. DC 13 Fortitude vs. swarm.

SILI crunches his way through the bugs all over the floor.

ZEIG uses his staff, launching a wall of water across the swarm.
23:43, Today: teslas, on behalf of ZEIG, rolled 12 using 2d8+5. Water (AoE) damage.
23:39, Today: teslas rolled 15 using 1d8+7. swarm reflex.
Final damage: 9


While many insects are drowned out and dispersed, the swarm is still going strong. DAI casts Fire and does absolutely no appreciable damage, in case you missed it the first time. I wish the game designers had given you guys alchemist's fire or something before this encount... oh right.

MILO moves to the exterior doorway, whimpering slightly.

The swarm envelops everyone. It's a 10' square over the three of you. DAI throws up a barrier of ice.
00:10, Today: teslas, on behalf of DAI, rolled 2 using 1d4. MP conserved.
00:10, Today: teslas, on behalf of DAI, rolled 20 using 1d20. Conserve MP Ice Armor.

23:47, Today: teslas rolled 6 using 2d6. vs ZEIG.
23:47, Today: teslas rolled 8 using 2d6. vs DAI.
23:47, Today: teslas rolled 3 using 2d6. searm damage vs SILI.

23:49, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 12 using 1d20+10.
23:49, Today: teslas, on behalf of ZEIG, rolled 23 using 1d20+6.

Everyone is coated with a myriad of stings and bites, though DAI's shell of ice absorbs all of it. One crawls up SILI's nose and bites him.
23:50, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 3 using 1d4. dexterity damage.

SILI, your bonus to fortitude saves has ended, good sir.

Round 6:
14: SILI        - Poisoned x3, Swarmed
14: ZEIG        - Poisoned x1, Swarmed
14: DAI         - Poisoned x2, Swarmed

After settling the light on the party it again lingers on Sili. Bless +4 to fort for Sili Zeig moves as far towards the entrance as he can, out if the door is open.

Stop forgetting these, damn it

Re: 10:32am Iceday, 8th week 852s

You tend to get on my case when I post without you reposting initiative order when not specified that it is okay.

02:34, Today: DAI rolled 22 using 1d20+4. fort vs nausea.
DAI shakes some of the bitier bugs off of him as he makes his way outside. "Damn this village, damn that chain, damn that ghost, and damn these fucking bugs!" DAI will cast Fast(if able, not sure when Ice Armor got worked in) and zip outside in a straight line from the door, ready to start firing or doing something.

OOC: So Fire isn't really enough to actually set stuff on fire, anything flammable near the building I might be able to work with?

SILI jogs across the room, opting to stay in the zone of death.

DAI puts it in third gear and jogs down the street outside. Fast. MP: 17/54
I had you run to the east since it was the direction you could go the furthest without losing sight of everyone from running into an alleyway. There are buildings all up and down this street to the north and south of you.

MILO stays near the doorway, whimpering, not wanting to let SILI leave his sight, but trying to keep an eye on DAI as instructed.

The swarm coats SILI once again.
14:24, Today: teslas rolled 5 using 1d6. other half, oops.
14:24, Today: teslas rolled 5 using 1d6. swarm damage vs. SILI.

14:24, Today: teslas, on behalf of SILI, rolled 29 using 1d20+10. Fortitude vs. poison.

Don't forget your DC 13 Fortitude for a full turn, or that you get a +4 Sacred bonus from ZEIG for two rounds.

Round 7:
14: SILI        - Poisoned x4, Blessed (+4 Fort), Swarmed
14: ZEIG        - Poisoned x2
14: DAI         - Poisoned x2

Re: 10:32am Iceday, 8th week 852s

The next person to miss reading something, and then reading it again when I explicitly tell them, loses 50 EXP. There's been way too much of this recently.

It slows down the game for everyone, and causes me to nerd rage.

If you guys want a break or we're moving too fast, let me know. It's ok to slow down and take your time and read everything.

edit-
And checking the dice roller he at least rolled it, but didn't include it. Forgivable, but this still stands.
