Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
Locky jumps up, she has indeed given Jerrard no rest, talking incessantley. However she is strangely prepared for the creatures, her hoopak ready she shouts loud enough for the others to hear...
"Pod things! Oooo" She lets off two bullets from her sling, (Roll 1d20 & 1d8 x2 = 16, 8 & 19, 6). Then she ducks behind the better fighters.

Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
Listening to Locky Ramble Jerrard was glad he hadn't used any spells as yet, his minor tricks would take no time to recover.
Drawing his short bow he lets off two arrows before the creatures advance too close (Roll 1d20 & 1d8 x2 = 3, 5 & 20, 7 Seeing the Kender react he simply says, "Behind me little one"

Right away, Locky uses her hoopak to sling a stone at the first podman. It smashes right into the creatures' face, stunning it. Before it could regain its composure, the plucky kender fired off another bullet, this one cracking open the creature's skull like a melon. It slipped in its own gore and collapsed to the ground, twitching slightly.
The Red Robed Wizard drew back his bow and fired an arrow, which flew over the second creature's shoulder. Not about to be outdone by a kender, the mage took aim again and this time concentrated. Letting loose the arrow, he watched it fly straight and true, piercing the creature's head. The point of the arrow burst out from the other side. Staggering, the creature fell to the ground.
Shay jumped up with a start, blinking and looking around wildly at Locky's shrill shout. Realizing they were under attack, he quickly tossed two daggers at the third creature. Both struck, but this one was a little more persistent and kept coming.
==============================
Locky causes a total of 14 damage and kills Podman 01.
Jerrard scores a critical hit for 12 damage and kills Podman 02.
Shay attacks (1d20): 11. Damage (1d4): 4. Second attack (1d20): 13. Damage (1d4): 2.
(Just Babs left to go, then its the Podmens' turn!)

Cursing under her breath, Babushka scrambles out of her bedroll. No time to put on boots. Barefooted, in shirt and underpants (think queen Victoria's unspeakables), she grabs her staff and runs next to the men, ready to fight. (Ranged weapons would have risked hurting her comrades).

Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
If the two remaining Podmen are the least bit fazed by the fact that half of their numbers have all ready been cut down, they do not show it.
The third podman makes an awkward lunge for Locky, but the nimble kender hops out of the way. However, Jerrard is not so quick. The fourth podman strikes a punch against Jerrard's chin, then its lumpy fingers grasp into his shoulder tightly, like a steel vice. It refuses to let go.
======================
Podman 03 attacks Locky (1d20): 7. Misses.
Podman 04 attacks Jerrard (1d20): 18. Damage (1d6): 6.
Round 2! The party may act.
(Also note, that Jerrard suffers a -4 penalty to hit as long as the Podman hangs on to him.)

Jerrard shouts in pain and drops his bow, bolts of magical energy shoot from his fingers (Casts Magic Missile Roll 2d4= 3 & 3)
Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
Locky standing behind Jerrard, jumps out striking the creature with the pointy end of her Hoopak, (Thaco 16, 1d6+2 Dmg Roll 11 & 8)

As Locky turns to help Jerrard, Babushka attacks podman 03 with her staff so he can't attack Locky's back.
1d20=10, 1d6=5, THAC0 17

Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
Chanting in the spidery language of the arcane, Jerrard unleashes a pair of energy bolts. The bolts unerringly strike the podman that is holding him, blasting into his chest with the force of crossbow bolts. Jerrard feels the creature's iron grip lax and then release as the podman stumbles backward and falls to the floor.
Seeing that Jerrard has freed himself, Locky instead turns her attack toward the remaining creature. She jabs it in the gut with the sharp end of her hoopak, but it ignores the stomach contents spilling from its wound and continues fighting.
Finally, despite being in her smallclothes, Babushka delievers a good solid strike against the remaining podman with her staff, cracking its neck. It, too, tumbles to the ground.
Not wasting a moment, Shay retrieves his daggers and checks down the tunnel to see if anymore are coming. He returns a moment later, shaking his head. "Looks like that was it. Must have been a patrol or something," he reasons.
==============================
Jerrard casts Magic Missiles for 8 damage and kills Podman 03.
Locky strikes with her hoopak for 8 damage against Podman 04.
Babushka hits with her staff for 5 damage and kills Podman 04.
(OOC: Jerrard, Magic Missiles actually do 1d4+1 damage each, so I added the extra two points into your damage total.)

"Those things are horrible! Now our camp smells!"

Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
Jerrard frowns, and nods "I hate to agree but Locky is right, this place is dangerous, we can kill those things when we are ready for them, they arent too tough, but I need to rest, to recover my spells, Locky does more importantly I fear."
He looks to Bab and Shay, "Could you take watch and allow Locky to rest, just for a few hours?"

Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
Shay sighs. "I feel like I barely got any rest at all," he says, rubbing a stiff shoulder. "All right, we'll switch up. You and Locky can take the second watch, Babushka and I can take the first. Sound good?" he asks.
Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
"Babushka may watch with me, please, resume your rest" With that he ushers shay back to his bed roll and forces the Kender to be quiet.
Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom (Game Thread)
Babushka says: "Well, I'm tired, too, but such is life. Let Shay and Locky sleep, hope their sleep will last longer than mine. But let me dress, underwear is a bit cold on a watch like this".
She puts on trousers, jacket and boots, but leaves the shoulder cape. She brushes her hair and plaits it down her back. From her backpack, she takes the vial with her ointment against bruises and moves over to Jerrard.
"Jerrard, I've seen that your body is full of bruises. This here won't heal them als Locky's powers can, but eases some of the pain and makes them heal a little more quickly. Would you like me to use it on your back? I guess you can keep watch all the same and I'll lay my sling and staff ready so we can react quickly if another patrol comes."

He looks at the Gnome curiously, "My scars are old, marks of rash young man." He smiles "I was wounded in combat, defending Palanthas."
Shrugging off his cloak he smiles.. "No salve can heal these... Although, I guess you can try."
