Berz smirks at the darky. "Ace? He's probably daydreaming about joining his marble-skinned Goddess for seven minutes in heaven." "I suppose I probably shouldn't be dissing on a goddess, huh? No offense intended, Inconsequentia. Just some good-natured funnin'."
Danton snaps out of his daydream and realizes everyone else has left. "Wait for me!" Danton runs through the portal to catch up.
In the second floor, It is still cool, with smooth stone floors and stone walls. The rooms all have torches or lamps, but the corridors are darker. The first room is rather large, and has an Inconsequentia Statue on the north wall. The room is inhabited by 7 creatures that look like dwarves, kinda. They are pale white, with stringy yellow hair and big yellow eyes that don't have pupils or irises. They are all armed with a shortsword and crossbow. They seem to be breaking camp.
Rantic motions for Hort to very silently close the door again, from where they peeked through. "Yeah those are Derro, actually know a lot about them but what matters most is that they will provide me my first kills of the day," Rantic whispers softly, and his mood seems to have taken a turn for the better. "They are vile, sadistic, murderous abominations. Let's wipe them out. I can use my tentacles again."
(d20+3=23) They are dangerous foes indeed. They have a number of spell like abilities, and frequently have a sorcerer or two with them. The also have spell resistance. (Berz will kick himself) Because of their underground lives, they are extremely sensitive to sunlight. In its presence, they will be blinded, and take damage every hour. To much can even kill them. They are also quite proficient in the use of poisons, and they use it on their crossbow bolts. They prefer to take prisoners as slaves, rather then kill.
" Yeah. I had to write an essay about them back in school." Torma shares his knowledge with the others. " Not sure if your tentacle would work on those Rantic."
"Goes to show you don't know much about magic and should better leave it to wizards like me." Wink. "Sure, those tentacles get summoned by magic, but once they're there they just attack like any living thing would, no amount of spell resistence will save them from being entrapped." Rantic whispers back.
"Yeah, yeah. Don't worry, I'll leave that part to you for sure...Hah. I was thinking of having a couple of them fly around, but if you get them stuck down, I'll test something else."
" Gonna do a little experience." Torma takes in hand all of his six javelins as well as his axe of doom.
