((I would assume even though you didn't have the smoothest ride, that one of you would have reclaimed it? It had an inordinate fondness for Dornikal, giving him a few friendly 'licks' with it's fly mouthparts.))

((It's on Dornikal's sheet, so it is probably back with him, unless Randy expressed interest?))

Quote from LurksInShadows >>

((Umm... decidedly not!  The thing probably gave Randy PTSD.  And Randy was most definitely air sick afterwards.))

((This would suggest not!))

((Missed that! I guess Dornikal has it!

Time to bring it back. Mounted combat time!))

((So Ulmwin holding blasts, Coljin can do something before the fungal mass goes again.))

Randy yells down "Dornikal, if you move too far down the tunnel, we can't cover you!" 

He growls and prepares to go down, slinging his bow and getting his rapier out again.

Coljin can’t see it, so he just waits patiently. 

Down in the tunnel, the creature lashes at Dornikal.

Attack: 27 Damage: 15

Attack: 14 Damage: 10

The first tendril slaps him across the face, but the angry dwarf is barely phased, though a bit more blue. His cheek tingles and itches.

The creature continues retreating down the tunnel, making it 20 ft further and giving him a chance to swing at it as it goes.

Dornikal grunts at the smack but has had worse. He swings as the thing goes and yells,

"Aye got it on the run though!"

Attack of Opportunity: 9 Damage: 9

He frowns as he misses, badly, and decides that isn't a good showing for Dumathoin so charges forward 20ft and smacks the fungus again. And again.

"Dumathoin's darkness isnt yers ye overgrown mold!"

Attack 1: 19 Damage: 8 

Attack 2: 16 Damage: 14 

Radiant damage if any either of those hit: 6

Dornikal's swing as it flows away from him only skitters across stone. As he charges forward, he can feel the blue goo on him starting to sting.

((Dornikal takes 1 acid damage.))

His first blow hits, sending more of the sizzling blue goo over him.

The creature flows back up along the walls and ceiling, forming a large mass in the tunnel behind the dwarf, sealing him in as it strikes at him again.

Attack: 27 Damage: 22
Attack: 23 Damage: 18

Fungal Mass (-138)
Dornikal  

Both blows hit, wrapping around Dornikal and finding the purchase to draw him fully into its mass. The barbarian finds himself unable to breathe, when he attempts to open his eyes, he's met with blinding pain, and his limbs are trapped within the gelatinous mass.

Up above, the sounds of Dornikal's exertions go silent, and the glow fades as Randy can sense the fungus moving deeper into the tunnel.

((If anyone else out of immediate combat with the fungus had wanted to start doing something, go ahead and post it, I kind of skipped over you to keep things moving with Dornikal.))

Fungal Mass (-138)
Dornikal (+4 acid stacks, grappled, restrained, blinded, unable to breathe) <----<<
Everyone else <-----<<

Dornikal dislikes his current situation, dislikes it whole lot.

With a quick prayer, silent, he twists and tries to free himself.

Athletics: 25

If that is enough to get free he'll shout,

"Gonna need some help!"

((AoO if he moves back?))

((Yes, it would get an OppAtt. Roll me a d20 for luck? I'll be modifying it on the backend.))

((Lady Luck: 12))

Dornikal, with a burst of angry strength, claws his way out of the creatures insides, schlorping to the ground covered in glowing blue goo and shouting for help as he clears the stinging muck from his face. As he stands and is able to get his bearings, he realizes he's still on the far side of the creature, cut off from his friends above. Even with the anger and flurry of getting engulfed and clawing his way free, he does note that the majority of its substantially reduced mass is now sealing things off between him and the exit, with the chamber behind him is mostly clear of the fungal creature, a few specks here and there providing illumination that glints off shattered, polished bones, metal and glass... the eventual disposal of the hydra's prey.

The acid burns into him. 

((4 acid damage))

Up above, you hear a muffled shout, faint and indistinct, but sounds like Dornikal.

Fungal Mass (-138)
Dornikal (+5 acid stacks) <----<<
Everyone else <-----<< ((Two rounds worth))

Once he hears Donikal yelling for help, Coljin jumps towards the hole and heads down to help as he has learned the Dwarf is a brave one and is not one to ask for help unless he really needs it.  If after regular movement he does not see the fungus, he will use double movement to continue towards it.  He continues on moving, until he can see the fungus.

Randy starts cursing a blue streak. He clambers down as quickly as possible and points towards the fungus he's feeling. "That way! Let's move!"  Provided the tunnel is big enough to do so safely, he'll sprint.
