The mimic recoils under your assault and turns to flee, only to be cut down by Blonvids hefty ax. At its death it collapses and looses all form causing some of the pool contents to spill out of its slightly gaping mouth. You pick up the easy stuff then work up the nerve to pry open the beasts jaws and dig out the rest.

Banded Mail (heavy), crossbow (magical)
As the excitement of the fight fades you look around cautiously. Vlax has gone missing. . .

Once the group realizes that Vlax has gone missing, Blornvid looks up and down the tunnels while listening for a cry of help.

I don't know if this applies, but I'll roll to find out if Blornvid sees or hears anything.Rolls

Skeeve will also frantically look around for Vlax. I assume it is not focused, but advantage is still there.
He will also check the rest of the remaining team for injuries and broken skin. We still need to make sure the pink slime doesn't get us. No reason to win the battle, but still lose the whole effort.

Skeeve: Search for Vlax - (3d6)

Luckily the mimics arms merely pummeled you. Raggy however did get bitten and has a few puncture wounds. And with the pink slim covering everything, including the mimic and its pool like mouth, he has likely already been infected.
The search for Vlax only reveals some odd tracks through the pink slime where you came in. Your footprints are distinct but there was something else that leads out of the cave. (from 5 back towards 1) However the cavern stone floor soon make tracking it increasingly difficult.

To Skeeve: "Do ya think a healing potion will work on that pink filth, or do we need to go topside for professional help?"

OOC:
Would the antitoxin help? Or does it need to be more "cure disease"?So, we'll take the loot and retrace our steps. Since it looks like. Lax headed back, this'll hopefully give us our best chance to trip across him, too.
OOC:
In case it is "too organic", Skeeve does NOT put the rope back in his pack. It stays outside and will be pitched if it is too cumbersome. Actually, can Spell Touched do the equivalent of Prestidigitation? If so, he will be sure to clean down everyone and everything once clear of the slime. Honestly, I figure it should be good for just about any Cantrip, if not some first level spells. Jul 15, 2023 1:49 am
OOC:
It may be my D&D background but yes, I consider disease separate from poison. Though the antitoxin would prevent the growing thirst the infection causes form the toxins it creates. Jul 15, 2023 1:55 am
OOC:
I'm completely cool with the distinction between "poison" and "disease". Do we know how long we have?Also, when we get back to the gate, he will try to use the map to "call ahead" for Baun or another healer.

I was going to say that I have a couple of potions of poison antidote as well, but it's effectiveness has already been answered.Jul 15, 2023 3:31 am
OOC:
Oh no I’m diseased lol. Also I forgot about the crossbow so I would like to retract my statement about switching to light. That is unless Skeeve has better use for it since we now know it’s magical. Last edited July 15, 2023 3:32 am

Skeeve has no use for a non-rope crossbow. His magic attack is what he likes and he'll stick with it. The rope crossbow he likes because, while it is virtually useless in combat, is very useful otherwise. The new crossbow is yours. And, yes, Skeeve will take care of Ro if anything bad happens. :) I'm sure that won't be needed, though!

Retracing your steps you find the Dero are gone. You make it back to the gate and suspect the Dero came this way but when you get back to the guards there has been no problems. Baun quickly heals Raggy of the pink slime infection and you get your rewards looked over and identified. The crossbow is magical but the armor is only of superior material that prevented rust and decay.
[ +- ] Bow of the Eldritch Archer
(Cursed) This unearthly bow is disjointed and gruesome. It's made of an ashen, twisted wood that acts as a conduit for eldritch energy and has a series of fleshy tendril-like growths that bulge through the wood's grain. Arrows shot from this bow are destroyed once they're fired, turning into a projectile of pure energy instead. This projectile deals 2 damage. These energy projectiles can sometimes pierce enemies. One creature within 10 feet behind the target per 6 rolled on the attack takes 1 damage.
Eldritch creatures can feel the magic of the bow if nearby and are drawn to it. If you target eldritch creatures the bolt rebounds to strike you.

Awesome so the curse just means I need to keep track of ammo and that it is destroyed when fired that’s it? Well that and the eldritch part. Last edited July 15, 2023 7:22 pm

"I don't know if that thing was worth it, Raggy. And I hope that its presence doesn't mean that we're going to face anything eldritch in the caverns below." He shudders at the thought of it. "But I'm relieved that Miss Baun was able to rid you of that pink filth."

If or when we are topside again Raggy will spend 2 gp for 40 crossbow boltsJul 17, 2023 2:40 am
OOC:
So, I assume we're done for the day, and we'll head back down the following day?He will inquire to see if Vlax made it back, too.
He'll then have a good dinner with friends, retire for the night, and be ready to go in the morning.

Raggy will spend time giving himself and Ro both a very good bath. After buying his crossbow bolts he will do some practice shots with his new crossbow.
