Meriele quirks a brow and asks Mai'ngor, "What, exactly, are you referring to?"

"I do not know exactly, but I can feel it, and so can Sinag." Mai'ngor replies, gesturing with the sword.

"His girlfriend has done all right by us so far, so I am also inclined to believe them," Hunter explains, defending Mai'ngor's relationship with the blade. She drains the goblet as the group heads to the duergar enclave, then stows it in her bag as her cheeks and sinuses flush with warmth.

Mai'ngor shrugs. "You saw what I did to the duergar. It was folly -- but I do not know what else to do."

The drow, gem still in hand, struggles more and more as you approach the Duergar enclave. As the guards come into sight, she reaches into a hidden pocket and pulls a dagger, stabbing at Mai'ngor. He attack is pushed slightly wide as the tikbalang reacts on instinct, shoving the blade away from his body. It still manages to cut him a bit, but it's not a bad injury (24 vs AC. 6 damage)

Mai'ngor hisses as the blade connects. Sheathing Sinag, the tikbalang disarms the drow prisoner and also tries to take the gem from her hand.

As Mai'ngor's fingers wrap around the gem, he feels a surge of energy pulse up his arm. The drow's dagger falls to the ground and skids off into the darkness as the tikbalang knocks it from her hand.

"This! This is the dark power! Mai'ngor exclaims, holding up the gem, "I say we destroy it!"

Turning to face the drow, Hunter stamps her staff upon the ground and twists her other hand upward into a clenched fist.
[ +- ] Maximilian's Earthen Grasp
2nd-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (a miniature hand sculpted from clay)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You choose a 5-foot-square unoccupied space on the ground that you can see within range. A Medium hand made from compacted soil rises there and reaches for one creature you can see within 5 feet of it. The target must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 2d6 bludgeoning damage and is restrained for the spell's duration.
As an action, you can cause the hand to crush the restrained target, who must make a Strength saving throw. It takes 2d6 bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
To break out, the restrained target can make a Strength check against your spell save DC. On a success, the target escapes and is no longer restrained by the hand.
As an action, you can cause the hand to reach for a different creature or to move to a different unoccupied space within range. The hand releases a restrained target if you do either.

As the drow begins to try to run away, a stone hand reaches up out of the ground and grabs hold of her. She cries out in pain and struggles against the magical stone arm.
OOC:
You've NEVER rolled and actually gotten a wild magic surge, it's ridiculous! lolNov 6, 2017 5:48 pm

I know she cut Mai'ngor but didn't realize she'd broken the grapple. I'm glad Hunter caught her again!Nov 6, 2017 6:28 pm
OOC:
I figured since you went after the gem, you sorta released your hold on the drow.Her voice trails off at the end, staring at the drow in her earthen grasp. Hunter tightens her still-clenched fist, a smile growing in the corner of her lips.
OOC:
Hunter will continue to squeeze the hand to apply 2d6 bludgeoning damage, so long as the drow is restrained within.Nov 6, 2017 7:07 pm
The drow grunts under the pressure of the stone hand, her bones beginning to be crushed under the great pressure.

Hunter's eye pop wide and her knees buckle. Were it not for her staff, she would likely fall to the ground. There is a strange sound from her throat as she struggles to keep something down, and her eyes water as she tries to maintain her focus on the magical manifestation surrounding the drow.
