Combat 1 Rd3
INITIATIVE ORDER
19 Sideways
18 Statue
14 Brush
11 Ferren
7 Black Pudding 1
3 Ceridwen
0(!) Black Pudding 3a, c
The little armoured gnome slashes at the oily mass, cutting it into pieces, but not quite managing sixths … yet. Every strike spills the acidic ichor from the creatures across the gnome, his armour and his sword. Fortunately, the innate magical power of both inanimate objects protect them from harm, but Sideways is not so luck (Sideways: 21 Acid Damage total - sorry!)
Then the broken statue, previously covered in the rotten black slime stands up and teeters down the steps into the main hall. It strides past the gnome surrounding by black slime, every decreasing in size, but increasing in number, and heads towards the other intruders.
Brush rams the fiery ball into the pack of puddings, then ducks outside. (I don’t know her spells or abilities. If you need something desperate from Brush like healing or help or a tactical advantage, shout out and I’ll sort it out).
Ferren lets loose a volley of arrows with strike true on each of the four pudding-parts, breaking apart two of them, and leaving the other two in tatters. (Excellent tactic, you almost had them all! Ferren has
INSPIRATION.)
The first giant pudding chases after the retreating witch. Closing within reach, it rears up and brings down an enormous pseudopod to strike her down and drench her in acid. But the creature misjudged the weight of its own mass and collapses back in on itself (rolled a … … … Nat 1!)
Ceridwen brings a storm down on the two large creatures. It buffets both badly, although the pudding doesn’t seem to mind the cold.
The two smaller puddings slam into the armoured gnome (3a: 18 to hit = 5 Bludg + 25 Acid; 3c: 18 to hit = 13 Bludg + 13 Acid).
Sideways is up ….
