Into the Depths of Madness...

Postby Mr_Praetorian » Mon Dec 17, 2007 2:29 am

The sounds of the battle in the great chamber were just beginning to fade away as the group ran down the tunnel. Giving a quick glance backwards, you could see the dim purple and red lights of the great chamber beginning to fade into shadow, as your Dolgaunt allies formed a line and held off the waves of maddened spawn so that you could "escape" to whatever fate the resin-bound fiends had waiting for you. Whatever your future held down the increasing dark and slippery tunnel, it had to be brighter than that of fighting off endless hordes of spawn.

Figuratively speaking anyway...

No sooner had lights completely faded away when a rumbling emerged from the lower levels, followed by a terrifying shriek of insane agony. It was the samw kind of shriek that caused the cave in after the initial attack, so you all were surprised when pieces of the ceiling began to pelt you and you were running along ((DC 15 Reflex: 10 bludgeoning fail/5 bludgeoning success)). What was slightly less expected, was the floor to give out under you, sending the entire party sliding down a different path. Some of you might have normally had a chance to stop yourself from falling by grabbing the edges, but whatever substance was coating the surface made it impossible for such things to be accomplished.

After a thankfully-short, downward-sloping tumble, the end was met with a great splash. The party had landed in a pool of viscous fluid, that required a great deal of effort to free oneself from. The chamber is pitch black, the only light being given off by the psi-forged's crystals ((normal illumination 5 feet/shadowy illumination 5 feet)...

Fist scrambles to the side with a grunt, barely avoiding the rocks falling from the ceiling. As he lands, he begins to sink rapidly under his bulk, but manages to haul himself out to the point that he can move.

(Lightning REF Save: 27)
(Bolt REF Save: 22 (IMPROVED EVASION))
(Thunder REF Save: 20)
(http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1436855)

Lightning and Thunder dodge the majority of the rocks, and Bolt's air like form allows her to dodge them all. The three look at each other in surprise as the floor gives way, the Thunder falling into it and sliding down. Lightning rolls into a ball and rolls down the tunnel, with Bolt flying down behind them. Landing with a splas in the pool, the two forged manage to stand up and Lightning channels arcane power into his hand to create a ball of light.

Mephistopheles dodges the agiley dodges the falling rocks, then curses as the floor gives out.

Pulling himself to his feet, he casts Repair Light Damage on Deviator, healing damage.

The light spell proceeded to the illuminate the room as the group pulled itself from the viscous purple fluid. The chamber now lit, the 'forged could now see a rather disconcerting sight of a long winding path leading away from the chamber they had just tumbled down. Attempts to focus on whatever was in the distance proved difficult, as things far out seemed to twist and turn to the point where concentration was moot. A slightly more disturbing aspect of the terrain was the trail of green ichorous substance that seemed to clime up the wall, and down the wall on the other side in a counter-clockwise direction.

Looking up, the party noticed there to be another puddle of ichorous substance, this one blood red. This one however, was not moving, but was certainly stirring.

((Distance to ichorous ring: 25ft
Tunnel Width: 20ft
Tunnel Height 40ft))

Fist draws his sword and moves cautiously up towards the ring in a defensive stance, expecting an attack at any second.

Burn watches all this sword-drawing and walking and rings of funny colored goo, eldritch blast at the ready.

Deviator and Scorpian head over as well, Scorpian keeping his weapon ready.

Just as the wizard spoke its words, the viscous pool behind the party stirred, and bits of the ichorous substance began to shamble out in vaguely humanoid form. To make matter worse, as the party turned to face their strange opponents, a massive glob of the red substance proceeded to fall onto them from its gravity defying ceiling position.

(There are two of these humanoid ichorous things, each one is medium sized, and are still in the pool. Party members who are in the back are within reach (5ft) and may make AoOs.
Everyone must make me a Reflex save, and roll initiative.
In your next response, post only your reflex and initiative rolls.)
