You rolled the dice!!!

Didn't mean to imply that *someone* was you.  Damn the dice gods.

Confirming: If you start to the right of the crevice, and start working your way left, the first thing you'd hit would be the crevice itself.  Was that your intention?

Yes.

Cool.  Thanks for confirming.

Once again, the date completely passed me by.  We're now two weeks past our two-year anniversary of Exandria Unbound, which started on 13 March 2022.

Happy gamiverssary, everyone!

Keep going, please.  Until another option presents itself, this is what we have.  Unless someone wants to try the puddle of water.

If you keep going left, there's 225 feet of wall before you get back to the entrance.  Assuming a generous 10 foot section per 6-second round, it would take you 25 rounds (or 2 and a half minutes) to search the entire left of the wall to the left of the crevice.  If you want to do that, that's cool.  Just confirm for me, and I'll consider that while I let other people take other actions.  Kursak's tied up with a ten-minute ritual casting, so you'd be done well before he would.

Edit: Kursak's not ritual casting detect magic, since he doesn't have the spell prepared.

Yes, please.  Until a better option presents itself.  That is to say, until someone else finds a better path forward.

How high up is the spider?  The bold/underlined sections below speak to me of height above the ground.  In fact, "behind a stalactite" seems to indicate that it's on the ceiling.  Is that correct?

Correct.  The ceiling is 20 feet high.

I added a free action (object interaction) to free the light on Lucy's mirror to allow full illumination of the area in the absence of Yawgo's torch.

Problem there is the mirror's not in your possession -- you handed it off to Frilia.

I'd forgotten that.

Sounds good to me.  If the Rocky Gray spider (Yellow on VTT) is in melee range of Lucy, I'm assuming that it's on the ground.  You've mentioned that the Jet Black spider (Dark Blue on VTT) is on the ceiling.  That's 20ft up, correct?

Could you list the heights of the other spiders so we can assess the risk of AoO from movement?  I figure that all of the spiders are on the ground except for the Jet Black spider.  But I had to comb through several posts to compile that info.  It would be nice to list Height in the Conditions section if the creature is above ground level.

It you hover over the icons on the VTT, the name should pop up.  Yes, the rocky grey spider is the one with a yellow identifying ring around the token.

Each of the tokens which are elevated also has an altitude marker in the bottom left corner of the token; it's a cloud shape with a number inside it.  If you look at the ket black spider (blue ring), you'll see it's at elevation 20.  None of the other spiders (that you can see) are on the ceiling.

Cool.  I'll take a look next time.

Is this an impassible wall of spider webs?  That is to say, can the dragonborn reach Lucy?  And Lucy, therefore, reach the dragonborn?

The wall does not seem to be a visual impediment.

Does the wall appear to be an impediment to range attacks?

The VTT should show them both...

Without copy/pasting the map and annotating it: the corridor looks like this...


The webs are not impassable.  Like any spiderweb, you can probably push past them, Indiana Jones-style.

I see.  And now that you mention it, I see webbing all throughout the various spaces in the caves.  Not as thickly as the spot you mentioned, though.  I was focused on the 20-some foot span directly between Lucy and What-May-Be-Tyrsoir.  There doesn't seem to be any webbing between them, but that may be obscured by the darkness in the square directly to Lucy's NW.  Though, it seems that directly North of Lucy is reasonably clear.  And, one diagonal NW of that is clear as well.  I see no webs around the mushroom between Lucy and Tyrsoir.

Am I seeing this correctly?

BTW, Tyrsoir is at a higher Init level, so I'll wait for his move before posting.  What Lucy does will be contingent upon that.  I was thinking the other day that there are advantages to losing in the Init order.

It would appear so.

Updated

Would it be possible to apply the torch to the web, and thereby escape it?  In my experience, spider webs evaporate at the application of fire.  These being tough enough to entrap a human-sized being would, of course, be tougher.  There would be fire damage to the trapped individual.  What sort of action would setting the webs ablaze be?

You can certainly attack the webs with the torch.  By definition in the PHB, torches do 1 fire damage (flat rating).

Because the webs are one you (and wrapped around you), I'd be inclined to say you take the damage as well: you're bound up and Restrained.  Normally, this would mean attack rolls are at disadvantage.  Sine you're attacking yourself, I'll say you can automatically hit, but you lack the leverage and fine motor control to target only the webbing without burning yourself in the process.  If someone were attacking the webbing from the outside, that would be a different story.

As for how long it would take to burn through?  That's left to be discovered...
