Your first patrol goes by without any incident. You each get your reward (25gp, 100xp, and 1 Downtime Unit,) and begin another. Three hours into your next patrol, as you travel between the southern towers, you spot a trio of centipedes, each over three feet long, in the middle of the road, about 50 feet in front of you. The venomous creatures could pose a threat if they get too close to the town.

"So, those things need to go," she turns to the druids who had expertly conversed with animals the previous day, "do you want to try and convince them to leave or shall we end them?"

"Insects are juicy, good for hydration when desperate. Ones like those, mmm but lots smaller, never taste good."

Sovok draws his massive maul, stepping forward.  "Choose speakers of Gan, before they choose for you.". Sovok says, his deep voice carrying easily.

Irsoneic glanced around a bit, "Ham? Ham is always good."

Myre looks to Tiria, "Ah, doesn't really work like that. Not unless they really want to be friendly. I may have some ability to pacify them, but only for a short time. It would not help the town in the long term." She shrugged, "Unless Divok has a better idea I think it is likely best we remove them."

"I'm not one to destroy life unless truly required. The only way I can think of dealing with these is to lead them away from the village and remove the threat to life, or take care of them ourselves. Perhaps if we combine our druidcraft and create areas that smell intensely of musk we could find that it either attracts or repels them." suggests Divok, and he begins casting.

Cast druidcraft to create an area of skunk smell close to the centipedes to see if they react against it or towards it.

Myre nods and joins Divok in his casting.

Casting Druidcraft to assist Divok.

The centipedes move toward the smell. They feel around with their antennae, and then begin moving quickly in different directions. One begins to move in Divok's direction, then stops, exactly 30 feet away from him. An instant later, all three centipedes begin charging his direction.

Roll initiative! If you beat an 18, post your first round action!

Irsoneic looked at the giant-man-thing, "They have chosen death."

20:35, Today: Irsoneic rolled 15 using 1d20+3.  Initiative.

11:40, Today: Myre rolled 22 using 1d20+2.  Initiative.

"Oh no! That just made them mad!" Myre laments, although it seemed she expected it to go that way as she was quick to begin casting.

Myre taps her staff on the ground and illusory thorns sprout briefly from the mushrooms before similar thorns and barbs cover the ground around the centipedes.

"Get ready!"

Cast Spike Growth on E18

"Yes.". Is the extent of his deep voiced reply.

03:06, Today: Sovok rolled 16 using 1d20+1 with rolls of 15.  Initiative.

15:30, Today: Divok Gezaha rolled 9 using 1d20+1.  Initiative. – [roll=1620977458.08726.356698]
