Adolmain hates senseless violence he feels that this may very well qualify. He is gifted to dispatch evil and at this moment it could be said that Autzen has stepped into the realm where evil lies. But all of this is moot as the Druid has called forth Spiders intent on harming all persons present, now we must deal with this. He moves to I7. He says the enchantment and makes the sign for guiding bolt. As he does this he calls upon the gods to grant him Favored by the Gods. perhaps this Druid can be handled quickly and the Spiders will withdraw.
The druid howls in pain as magical fire engulfs him. His screams are so loud and disturbing, that should the adventurers survive, they will remember the screams in their dreams.

A spider (S1) attempts to flank Autzen (moves to I7). It bites Autzen; poisonous venom dripping from its awful fangs. (22 ).
The bite breaks skin, and Autzen reels in pain. (Damage: 11). The poison begins to enter Autzen's blood stream, and his mind begins to get foggy (Autzen must pass a DC 11 CON save or he suffers an additional 3 poison damage. On success he takes half of the poison damage. If he goes to 0 HP there are other "issues" which I'll address. Also, due to the bite and poison, on next grapple check you will have disadvantage).
Dimitri has had his fair share of shady encounters. As a travelling sellsword, he's been ripped off, and he has ripped others off. He has given gold to lame beggars only to later find out that the injury was fake. He has exaggerated his own accomplishments to gain more gold from a patron than he would have gotten otherwise. If Dimitri were to apply to a paladin's guild, he would no doubt earn a boot in his ass and get thrown right out the door for his trouble. So he is no moral exemplar by any means.
However, this is a situation that churns his stomach with disgust. His companions have barged into a man's home, tortured him, and then begun executing him when he reacted in self defense. These people's actions are all too similar to what the Orcish tribes did to human settlements up north.
Dimitri will have no part in this man's murder. For murder, plain and simple, is what this is. He will defend himself from the spiders, but he will not attack this man. He turns his sword to the spider behind him.

Dimitri's, an experienced and able combatant, doesn't allow his disgust to impact his ability with a Greatsword. His strike is true, and a spider eels in pain, emitting a terrible whine that only a hideous spider can make. Though injured, the spider clatters more loudly, ready to rescue its master and deal with the intruders.

Autzen find's himself flanked by two gigantic spiders as he torments the druid for having the gall to play games with him. Autzen's brazen behavior may cost him his life.
The spider, now injured, instinctively lashes out at Autzen, who also appears to be injured. (Attack: 9 ). The hit from Dmitri however causes the spider to bite wildly, and it misses Autzen (MISS)
Empathy has never run deep in his blood. It's clear his traveling companions do not approve of his methods of retribution, that is none of his concern. This is Autzen at his most apathetic.
The reality is this old man was actively sending each of them to their deaths. This treachery may go unchecked where they come from, but men and beasts alike are cut down for far less in the back-alley underworld Autzen calls home. That the Druid had dog sized spiders waiting in the wings, well... that's unfortunate. Exceptionally unfortunate now that he's felt their sting.
As the venom races through his veins, he sees the flashes of steel and magic around him. His companions... their actions are not lost on him.
Autzen pivots to catch the recoiling spider (S1) with his Greatsword, and goads it away from the others, while simultaneously summoning the healing strength learned from years of training. Perhaps there is a sliver of empathy down there somewhere... though he doubts it.

Autzen is short tempered, the party knows this. And now they face the battle of their lives due to such temper.
Though incredulous, at his actions, the party recognizes that Autzen is a fearsome warrior and valuable. He proves his mettle by miraculously appearing to get stronger, despite his injuries. And his blow to the spider, not only was meant to harm, but also send a message. The spider received the message (HIT), but the courage and tenacity of Autzen signaled a message to his party members — he won't go down without spilling blood.
The spider cries out as Autzen's blade enters and exits its innards.
(Wis Save Roll: 4 - failed. All his attacks have disadvantage on toons other than Autzen).
Rastin glances at Autzen. He is concerned about the well being of the Tiefling, but he knows his companion can handle himself. He also fells the vibe off of Dimitri. He wishes they had gotten off to a better start with him, but such as it is. The Dragonborn must ensure that his friends survive this encounter with the morally questionable druid and his arachnid pets. Rastin swings on spider 2 with his venomous blade, Talon. Attack 8 Damage 5 Wrathful smite continues 4

Though of late Rastin has been sure of his blade, this time he swings badly and off-balance and misses the spider.
The party realizes that something…or someone…is gonna die here today. The bad miss by Rastin in the heat of battle could tilt the scales in the favor of the enemy.

The druid, being held by Autzen, has a choice to make. His mind races, thinking his options. Would badly, he considers attempting to escape the death grip from Autzen. However, he notices that Autzen is injured, so with his free hand and the magically enhanced quarterstaff he weilds he attempts a wild swing at Autzen, attempting to injure Autzen enough to have him reconsider his options. (14 - Damage if Hit: 8 ) (gets +5 to hit and 1d8+2 due to shillelagh).
(HIT)
Autzen's grapple has had a positive effect in restraining the Druid, but in doing so he found himself vulnerable to the druid's attack, which hits. The quarterstaff lands squarely on Autzen, and the blunt weapon manages to draw blood.
The magical energy coming from Adolmain is greater than any release of energy the adventurers have seen from Adolmain in the short time they have been together. A spider instantly explodes (S1), dead as in dead. All that remains are burning embers.
The other spider hit by Adolmain screams a horrific song. Its entire body engulfed in magical fire, yet it still lives.
Dimitri pauses for a minute, seeing the display of divine power from Adolmain. "Боже мой", the barbarian utters under his breath, seeing the spider incinerate in flames. He steps forward, and carefully attacks the remaining spider. Dimitri continues to defend himself and the others from the spiders, but takes care to not threaten the druid, whom he views as a victim of aggression.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
What had intended to be a simple lesson in the consequences of betrayal, has now turned into a blood bath. Autzen moves (I6) past the smoldering spiders and stands before the Druid, arm nearly chopped off from Rastin's Talon, skin burnt from Adolmain's flames.
Autzen hears the echos of his ancestry. He hears The Morning Star, whispering for brutality, urging for bloody savagery. Staring at the druid, and seemingly in a trance, he asks, "til vywzulh ky vyluyv?".
Autzen is unsure if he's asking the Druid, or himself, but it's the Red Sword who answers, whistling through the air before Autzen realizes his instincts have made their own decision.

The Tiefling's sword slices cleanly through the druid, nearly cutting the old man in half. Autzen has to grunt to pull his sword out of the druid's carcass. Blood, shit, bile and piss adorns his blade to create a macabre scene. The druid and the spiders lie lifeless, and Thundertree is quiet.

Adolmain suggests checking the body and his dwelling resting inside (long rest) and depending on what is found will determine what our next action should be. Does anyone have a good recipe for dragon.
