"I don't know if all of them would come rushing. . ." Ramiel says as he starts to count the star-lit stalagmites.
Sep 23, 2016 8:02 pm
"If they do, like, maybe I throw some rat noises down the way to confuse them," Silene considers. "And we all stay real quiet?"
Sep 23, 2016 9:14 pm
Ramiel counts three star-lit stalactites, all of which are within the bright circle of the lantern.
Sep 23, 2016 9:45 pm
Hearing the others talk Béke takes out her bow, nocks an arrow, and fires at one of the star-lit stalactites.

Rolls

Attack (w. dis) / Damage - (1d20+5, 1d20+5, 1d8+3)

1d20+5 : (15) + 5 = 20

1d20+5 : (14) + 5 = 19

1d8+3 : (4) + 3 = 7

The arrow sinks into the closest star covered stalactite and stays embedded in it. You hear a few guttural chirps echo through the chamber, then nothing.
Sep 23, 2016 10:15 pm
Silene creates the sound of a skittering rat just below the stalactite shot by the arrow.
Sep 23, 2016 10:26 pm
You see, as the sound of a rat skitters about, all three star-lit stalactites swoop down in a dive bombing fashion. You notice that they are no longer star-lit while they are swooping.

Silene waits for the darkmantles to resettle and see if the stars appear again.
Sep 23, 2016 10:36 pm
The noise fades, the dark mantles aimlessly dive bomb for a few more seconds before flying back up to the ceiling. They settle amongst the stalactites, you almost lose them amongst them before they are shined in stars again.

Silene's face perks up in the light. "I think this lantern is magical," she says in revelation. "It detects darkmantles!"

Her face falls a bit. "Handy for a time like this," she says, "but, like, kinda useless otherwise?" It never occurs to her to check what else can be bathed in stars, so focused on her initial theory.

"If that's the case, why not pelt them with bolts until they all die?" Ramiel said as he raised his light crossbow at the star-lit stalactite with an arrow stuck in it. Squinting with focus, he presses on the trigger.

Rolls

Light Crossbow - (1d20+5)

(16) + 5 = 21

Light Crossbow Damage - (1d8+3)

(5) + 3 = 8

Sep 24, 2016 8:01 pm
The bolt sinks into the star-lit stalactite, you watch as the other two star-lit stalactites swoop down and start to head towards Ramiel before the other drops down onto the floor with a thud. The other two change course for the louder sound and both taking sizable chucks from the source of the noise then swoop back up, disappearing before being covered in stars again. You watch as the stars fade from the fallen creature.

"You know. . .I could just put a silence spell on those two. It should last long enough for us to retrieve the hammer, barring any accidents. Alternatively, we put these things out of their misery. What do you say?" Ramiel asked in a hushed voice.
Sep 24, 2016 9:48 pm
Sounds like that could work
Sep 24, 2016 10:35 pm
Ramiel you unroll the scroll and while you can read that it is a 'scroll of silence', the rest of it, while still in common, looks like gibberish.
Sep 24, 2016 11:13 pm
Ramiel coughs lightly to clear his throat, then begins to read aloud from the scroll, before realizing that he can't pronounce the words. With a blush of embarrassment, he chuckles to himself.

"Err. . .apparently I can't read this. Does anyone else want to give it a try?" the sorcerer says, showing the parchment to the rest of the party.

"What if there's more down the corridor?" asks Silene.
Sep 25, 2016 1:45 am
Izen nods. "Aye, I'm not so sure that tha two there are all ov'em." He points his hammer down the corridor. "We ough'ta move up slow like an' blast tha beasties a few at a time."

"Alright, let's blast them then." Ramiel said as he readies another crossbow bolt. "Silene, could you make the sound of footsteps under them right when I shoot?"
