- Thanksgiving, Part II
- Thessalie and Sharai definitely hear something in the base of the tower - Felosyal ghosts to the top of the stairwell and looks down see a HUGE snake, big enough to eat T like a mouse, coming up the stairs
- Snake comes up. S sees it and sees a snake with a human face and she asks why do you look like a snake and the snake says why don't you
- Snake asks what are you you doing in my tower
- Snake says there are no Dwarves when S asks if he took it from the Dwarves
- T keeps hiding behind F
- S remembers reading stories about creatures like this being used as guardians, they are very powerful and set themselves up with territory, but she can't sense any extra magic coming off the Snake, but she can't sense anything over the magic field of the tower; she also senses that the creature is dangerous, but hasn't decided what to do with / about her yet
- S realizes her friends hid and the Snake thinks she's alone with it
- S and Snake discuss bartering safe passage through to the Dwarven library
- S says she has "mad sand sculpture skills", and the Snake is disappointed
- The Snake says that there is a town of Kobolds in his territory that is sick who have requested his help, and if she can heal it, he grant safe passage
- Snake's name is Sensani allows passage and that they are there to help with the sickness
- Sensani casts a spell on T's holy symbol that will guide her to the town in question, then leads them to the ground floor where he opens a secret door on the Dwarven side of the tower
- Sensani says he will be watching them, and F mutters "That's not creepy at all."
- FST go through the door and it closes behind them. It looks like a door on this side. Sensani did not come through the door with them.
- T leads the party in the direction her holy symbol until it's time to camp for the night, which is not that far.
- The landscape is very rugged. There are no signs of civilization other than the towers.
- S casts Leomund's Tiny Hut and FST rest after F shoots a squirrel for stew
- There are more of those creepy, undead glowing orbs after sunset that request S, "Come play with us." when she sticks her head out of the Hut, but she says "No" and pulls her head back into the force field
- FST break their fast and head toward the Kobold village again
- As they are crossing a meadow, a giant spider jumps out of a hole and grabs T. There is screaming.
- S grabs T to try to prevent her from being pulled into the spider's burrow, but she is just dragged in also
- SPIDER FIGHT
- There are two Giant Spiders and 8 Swarms of little Spiders in the burrow / tunnel
- F dashes into the tunnel after her friends and flanks the giant spider (GS1) holding T, then stabs it with her magicky dagger for 43 piercing dmg which slices it in twain, then end of stroke hits SS8 for 16 of that piercing dmg, then she slices into SS8 with her longsword in her offhand for 7 slashing dmg
- T casts Flame Strike centered on SS7, GS8 takes 38 fire and radiant dmg, SS4 takes 38 fire and radiant dmg and dies, SS5 takes 38 fire and radiant dmg and dies, SS7 takes 19 fire and radiant dmg and dies. T then backs towards the entry
- SS3 then moves towards F
- S casts Fireball centered on GS2, GS2 takes 10 fire dmg and dies, SS3 takes 21 fire dmg, SS8 takes 21 fire dmg and dies, SS6 takes 21 fire dmg and dies, SS1 takes 21 fire dmg. There are a lot of crispy fire corpses in this tunnel now.
- SS2 sits and prepares to Dodge
- SS1 moves to F and bites her for 4 piercing dmg
- F stabs at SS1 with her dagger but misses and then slashes them with her longsword for 1 slashing dmg
- T casts Sacred Flame on SS1 for 12 radiant dmg and it dies
- SS2 continues to Dodge
- S casts Fireball again targeting both the remaining swarms, SS3 takes 34 fire dmg and dies, SS2 takes 34 fire dmg and dies
- Deep in the chamber there is a desiccated corpse of a Kobold, but not much else
- Back out in the field, the spell on her holy symbol directs her again, but S tells her to stop immediately as she sees some areas that look as though they might be more spider burrows
- Skill Challenge to Avoid More Spiders
- F uses Perception to try to spot more Spider Burrows (16, Fail), but she misses one and puts her foot right through the cover of one of the burrows. Small spiders start swarming up her leg and she starts freaking out a little.
- T uses Insight to try to calm F and brush the spider off her leg (16, Fail), but she is so busy calming F she doesn't notice the giant spider coming out of a trap behind her
- S casts Slow on all the spiders in a 40' cube (10, fail), but the giant spider popping out behind T startles her and she accidentally casts the spell on her friends instead of on the spiders
- 2,860 XP ea for a total of 58, 240 XP ea
