As Bart steps forward, a multi-legged, ropy shape drops on him from the ceiling. A giant centipede!


Bart is bitten for 12 points of damage and must pass a Defy Poison roll (BOD+CO) or be poisoned!

ROUND 1

12 Giant Centipede (HP:100%) (DEF 11)
11 Alden (HP: 14/14) (DEF: 4)
08 Esteber (HP: 22/22) (DEF: 14)
08 Bart (HP: 12/24) (DEF: 13)
08 Slae (HP: 16/16) (DEF: 6)
04 Herja (HP: 20/20) (DEF: 12)

Conditional Modifiers:
Bart has the torch. He will have to drop it to fight with his two handed sword. The torch will go out on CTN 10, plummeting the group into darkness.

Does it mean it's my turn now or does the centipede still have another attack before me?

No, he went first you're up!

Esteber will move to melee the centipede.

We need someone to pick that torch up before it goes out! Slae, I doubt you need both hands to cast those spells, you do it.

Slae reaches a hand out and is ready to take the torch from Bart

Esteber slashes the centipede, one of his legs goes flying off. +1 SP to Esteber

Bart grimaces and takes the pain, feeling his body fight off the toxin. His sword strike hits the centipede soundly, sending 1/4 of its lower segments across the floor, flailing. The rest of it looks angrier than ever!

+1 SP to Bart

Slae holds the torch aloft and aims his sword at the centipede - a fire beam shoots from the tip.

Slae fires off a beam that singes the centipede's antennae

+1SP to Slae

Herja's blow silences the giant bug. It's nerves cause the legs to continue to twitch.

Victory!
20 xp each for centipede
5 each for exploration to date

All SP are lost at encounter end

Bart. Hold off on that herb...Herja?

As you rest you peer down the hallway leading west. It terminates in a set of verdigris tinted doors but before that there are north and southern facing passages. Again, the place is cold and wet, and moldering piles of what was once furniture litters the sides of the room. The walls feature old, peeling frescoes depicting nude and frolicking men and women, some of whom are in various positions of 'union'.
