Dungeon Raid (Surraruthru, Moore)

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru nods to the others and starts heading down towards the bottom of the pit.

[Anastasia]

How long are you willing to go down, timewise?

[Nephrite]

Let's say 20 minutes and we can reassess from there.

[Iron Dragoon]

I'm okay with that.

[Anastasia]

You go down about 15 minutes. The chasm is unremarkable until then. It's at that point where you can see something - an opening where it expands, at the edge of your vision. Whatever it is, it's much bigger than this chasm and opens up quite a bit. You'd have to go down to see more.

[Iron Dragoon]

"... I get the feeling there's going to be either a colony of those things or an extremely large one..."

Surrraruthru sighs.

"Let's go get them."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods and continues down!

[Anastasia]

You go a little more down. Suddenly lights shine everywhere, the walls starting to glow. Below you is a chamber so large you can't see any of the walls, only the floor. Lying on the floor are dozens and dozens of the creature you just killed. They begin to stir, several starting to rise in your direction.

"Surraruthru?" Finnegan says grimly, "Stop being right."

[Nephrite]

"I'm not sure we can really handle that many..." Moore says with some trepidation.

[Iron Dragoon]

"What can I say? Celestials are always right. There's almost certainly something amazing down there, but if we want to do this, let's lure them back up the pit a bit to fight them as few at a time as we can. Or just make for the portal? We may be able to out pace them."

As a reference, how wide is the pit/tunnel we came down? Can it fit only one of the things at a time, and how many medium sized creatures can it fit?

[Anastasia]

It's roughly 50ft in diameter and it can only fit one at a time.

[Nephrite]

Moore takes a breath. "Let's do it. It wouldn't do to run away just because of overwhelming odds, I'm sure a win here has merit."

If we have some prep time for spells let me know, also.

[Anastasia]

You don't. Beasties are rising up, fast.

What's your plan here, y'all?

[Iron Dragoon]

Plan is to drop back into the tunnel so we only have to fight one at a time. I plan to hit us with Celestial Valor right before the fight starts, then time stop and summon some allies for the fight. Escape plan is for me to drop a wall of force to block the pit and then run.

[Anastasia]

Okay. How far up the tunnel?
