So far we have initiatives for Gunter, Princess, Spider Sal, Bramlin, and Spider Sue.

We still need initiative rolls from Adran, Elowin, and Morik.
We also need a first round action(s) from Morik.

Morik is shocked to find the spiders rapidly approaching them, and shivered at the thought. He ran as fast as he could to approach them, trying to find a way to give his companions an advantage.
OOC:
Are any of the spiders on the ground (for Entangle)?

Initiative: - (1d20+1)

At the moment, you have the highest initiative, and they're starting the round in the air on silk. As they each attack/are attacked, they will drop down. So you could defer your action until later in the round or do something else this round and cast the spell next round.
The initiative order we have so far is:
Morik
Gunter
Princess
Spider Sal
Bramlin
Spider Sue


Both Adran and Elowin need to roll initiative to go along with their actions, as the order of operations is important. Also, for those of you aiming attacks, please declare which spider you are targeting. Sal is coming in from the southwest (left) and Sue is coming in from the northwest (right).

Morik stayed at mid-distance, once again whispering to the roots and the earth, preparing to strike as soon as a spider touched down.
OOC:
Ready action to entangle the first one to touch the ground.

Initiative? You mean I can't just yell, "Me first?"

Here's the timing for when Elowin looses her arrow.

Elowin initiative - (1d20+4)

ROUND ONE

Morik prepares to cast Entangle as soon as someone brings a spider to ground. Adran runs up to confront Spider Sal, lunging with his dagger, but the blade caroms off of the brightly-colored chitin to little effect. Gunter runs up next to the elf, bringing his hammer down on its thorax with a crunch, dealing 9 bludgeoning damage! Spider Sal drops to the ground, and Morik casts Entangle as soon as the long legs hit the ground. Vines spring up and grab Spider Sal, keeping it from escaping or moving away! Princess casts faerie fire as Spider Sue gets in range, too. Despite being restrained by the tendrils, Spider Sal avoids the faerie fire, but Spider Sue is caught and highlighted in pink sparkles, making it easier to hit! But getting the distance right is tricky from a distance with the elf and human actively dancing around the spider, attacking it.

Adran and Gunter, make DEX saves with ADV to avoid getting caught in the faerie fire, too.

Elowin looses an arrow, hitting the open target of Spider Sue for 5 piercing damage! Spider Sue drops from the silk to the ground, too. Spider Sal attacks, and the DISADV from the restraining tendrils causes its mandibles to miss Adran completely! A split-second later Bramlin arrives, sprinting up with his greatsword, which he cleaves down on Spider Sal for 13 slashing damage!

Bramlin should roll a second attack roll, for the ADV granted by the restraining tendrils, just in case he gets a critical hit.

Then Spider Sue attacks Bramlin, biting him for 10 damage, and Bramlin must roll a DC11 CON save, too!

The flames roar up, the party can smell all the food supplies burning, and the horses scream in terror, unable to get away. The one horse is rearing and kicking, the other is trussed in silk and rolling on the ground. Gavath cannot get close enough to free them, and Dugal is yelling incoherently as he drags Jalon out of the conflagration.

Attacks on both spiders have ADV: Sal because it is restrained by Morik's spell, Sue because of Princess' faerie fire.

We've got four rolls that need to happen to resolve the remainder of this round: saves from Adran, Bramlin, and Gunter, and an ADV attack roll from Bramlin.

After those, what does everyone do now, for round two?
Morik (13/13)
Adran (10/10)
Gunter (10/10)
Princess (9/9)
Elowin (10/10)
Spider Sal
Bramlin (3/13)
Spider Sue
Burning wagon

Is there water nearby? A stream or pond?

Yes. If people wish to grab water to try to toss on the fire, or use dirt to smother it, they should describe what they're doing as an action for round two, and make a STR (Athletics) check to show how quickly they can physically move materials to quench the flames.

Note that I'm also expecting that saving throw with ADV from Gunter and Adran, a second attack roll from Bramlin, and the CON saving throw from Bramlin.
Feb 2, 2024 4:02 pm
"Bramlin! Keep up the pressure on these beasties!" Gunter roars. "You lot!" He points at the rest of the drivers and passengers. "Everyone grab a bucket and follow me!" Quick as he can Gunter organizes a line of buckets to be passed from the water to the wagon. He then moves to undo the horses.
OOC:
I imagine this will take at least three rounds.

Fire roared from the wagon, but the spiders were also upon them. Hoping the wagoners could handle the fire themselves, Morik charged the entangled spider, the power of the trembling earth coursing through him onto his quarterstaff.

Glancing back to witness the fire, Adran refocuses on the spiders. Both situations are bad, but the spiders are actively seeking to harm the caravan... the fire is just doing what fire does. The spiders stay at the top of the priority list, and Adran continues his attack.

Princess will turn away from the spider situation and turns her efforts put out the fire. She will grab whatever is available and whatever water source is there and go at it. 'I can believe the wagon is on FIRE."
OOC:
Hopefully she doesn't trip and end up drenching herself too many times. Gotta love a "1". Despite her efforts, her aid might not come to much. Dice just love her to death.
