As Ionaya summons invisible armor to protect herself and Morin moves into the dim lair to crack jokes, Zorden pulls the trigger on his musket to unleash a great blast of fire and black smoke. The deafening boom of the firearm is multiplied and extended by the tight quarters of the metal hallway, but for all the pain caused in the delivery, the bullet narrowly misses the petals of the the weedwhip's flower and imbeds itself in the metal wall behind it.
Startled by the sudden flood of light and the roar of Zorden's musket, the small vegepygmy drops its makeshift bucket, spilling its water on the bed of fungus covering the room, and takes cover from the loud weapon and advantage of the exposed, smallest member of the group. It lashes out at Morin with its two, thorned hands and manages to sneak one past the gnome's defenses, gouging his neck above his fancy chain shirt
(-4 HP).
The Weedwhip drags its blub-body forward with snaking roots and lashes out at all of the intruders within the reach of its viney tentacles and the poisonous spiked pads at their tips. The deadly flower strikes all three, but the thorny pads fail to penetrate Morin's chain shirt and are stopped short by the invisible, magical fields surrounding Cain. Kelari's thick, heavy armor, however, fails to stop the poisonous thorns from finding a way through to her elbow pit and drawing blood
(-4 HP) and making her feel immediately ill
(Fort DC 12 or Nauseated.)
The door then closes, splitting the party and leaving the bard alone and surrounded in the pitch black.
