Chapter 2: Into Darkness

Georges' bolt sails after Cemos' javelin, streaking through the air and sticking solidly into the creature's 'side'. As with the javelin, a clunk and down falls the haft with a melted tip.

Fang's thornwhip lashes out, slicing into the ooze! It jiggles ferociously at you!

As Cemos attempts to get onto the pylons and make his way across, he slips, tumbling to the ground! As his muscly behind lands square on the weakened tile, it cracks, and Cemos falls into a hole!

Cemos, a Dexterity saving throw please!

Sarith will take a shot at any weakened Oozes.

DM EDIT:
Using Sarith's previously rolled attack!

Sarith's bolt shoots out, lancing into the unrestrained ooze, causing another bolt to sizzle and drop to the ground.

As Cemos plunges into the hole, a deft Dwarven hand streaks out and snags ahold of his luxurious beard. You hear a wail of pain as the sudden drop is stopped by the hairs on his chinny-chin-chin. As Everytt grabs ahold of Eldreth and they pull back together, they manage to haul the paladin up from the pit. Cemos is now on the space immediately to the right of the pit, Eldreth behind him, and Everytt behind her.

Cemos, in your moment of plunging terror, through beard and water, you saw that the pit was only about 10 feet deep, but with a black mass quivering in the bottom of it!

COMBAT! Bildaweer has yet to go. We await the deep gnomish magical onslaught before we progress to the next step!

All three missiles streak out, hitting the restrained goo, causing him to explode into a shower of Jell-o, much like if you buried a firecracker in the middle of a bowl of jelly.

One Ooze remains, and he is unrestrained. He slowly oozes forward, moving only 10 feet before seeing the multiple paths and quivering strongly, almost confused.

Surging up from the bottom of the pit comes a massive black colored ooze! Sensing the intruder taken from its trap, it lashes out at Cemos.

As the thing swings its viscous appendage at the dwarf, it misses HORRIBLY! Whether from bad luck, bad timing, or over moisturization, it misses. As its appendage swings wildly over the paladin, it ends up hitting a piton and piercing itself! As its blob recedes from the wall, the previous metal spike is no more! It's a melty goop that still sizzles as it runs down the wall to the water below.

With this creature out of its hovel, water has rushed into the pit, filling it with water and leaving (in this area) only a slick of water on the floor and nearly 5 feet of water in the pit! More water rushes in from the room beyond, but only enough to cover your ankles.

COMBAT! 1 Gray Ooze, 1 Black Unidentified Thing left. Any PCs/NPCs can now take their turns. Cemos, if you attempt to move away without disengaging (which consumes your action for the round) will result in it getting another swing at you.
