Judoc hurls his ball of flame forward, intending to do more damage to the red nest, though his flame misses some feet off to the left this time, busting into a puff of smoke. However, it seems that the miss has made little difference in the long run, for the nest is now entirely engulfed in flames which lick upwards towards the ceiling, spewing thin wisps of black smoke which curl outwards along the glossy black roof.
Meanwhile, Gustav places his buckler low and thrusts his shoulder forward, slamming himself into the heavy door. The thing moves but slowly and Gustaf has to hurl his body forward with another surge of momentum before the thing truly starts moving closed.
Meanwhile, Finn makes all his effort towards Terri, dropping his bow to the ground with a clatter before reaching out in an attempt to grab the little imp, though his aim is off, all of his adrenaline preventing him from making a refined grab.
And as he misses, Finn is horrified as another of the little bastards appears, seemingly from out of thin air, upon Terri's shoulder. His thin, needle like beak thrust into her neck as well...
With a crash, Rondald sags to the ground, his hand just barely having gripped upon the bands of his shield. Like a stone, Rondald plunges face first into the glossy black floor, completely unconscious.
Magnus however, has seemed to figure out his own peril before it comes... Without having seen the thing, he swats out haphazardly with his mace, apparently hitting nothing... He feels a slight pinch at his cheek, and though he knows his skin is much tougher than most, the sudden collapse of two of his companions has the minotaur nervous... And indeed, it takes just a second and he feels a surge of dysphoria, a spreading numbness from his cheek that floods his head and his body like a piercing fog which seems to inhibit his thoughts and movements...
Judoc notices the odd movements of the minotaur as he steps to the side, placing his staff onto Terri's side to cast a healing spell... he notices another of the things appearing on Rondald's unconscious form, its body ripening from pale to pink as it sucks on the sailor's lifeblood.
OOC: I figured getting something up was better at this point than making things pretty. Map is below. Rondald and Terri are both unconscious now. Magnus is at -3 to DX and IQ for the duration of the poison effect. There are now 2 of the things latched on to Terri, one on Rondald, and presumably another one somewhere around Magnus. By the way, what Finn saw was a slow loss of translucence... like a fade from nothing to substance. There is obviously magic to these creatures, and Judoc would describe what they are doing as invisibility.
2 more rounds of action please.
