"Missed me, missed me, now you gotta kiss me!" Artifex taunts as they do an awkward half-roll out of the muck, popping to their feet. "That's how this works right? Kiss the ugly frog, get a prince instead?" As they speak, their tattoos stretch, the lines of ink stitching their wounds closed.
So crawling in difficult terrain means every 1 ft of movement will take 3 speed, so crawling out of the oil will take 15 ft of movement, and another 15 to stand up from prone. This will trigger an AoO, but first the cove leader has to make another DC 13 Dex Save, cause he ended his turn in the oil slick.
Sorry to hear about your mom, I'm glad things turned out as well as they could.
(thanks all for your wellwishes! :) Things seem to be settling down to a new normal where both my mom and I are actually able to function at a higher level than before; and in my case it feels like some areas of my brain that are asynchronous in AS as far as their pace of development vs. a neurotypical individual have serendipitously decided to grow up just in time to meet a new period in my life where I'll be called on to do more complex adulting than I have previously. Stents or no, my mom's birthday is Halloween (which I've always considered really cool) and this year she'll be 88 (which, whatever I may consider it, calls on me as her adult son to be ready to take on new responsibilities as her body and mind start winding up a life which IMHO and not only as her son she has every cause to be proud of as a fearless and tireless advocate for justice who always got more angry when you hurt somebody else than she did when what you did hurt her ... but god help you in either case, you now have a tireless and very competent bulldog for justice on your case. Also a very pragmatic wisewoman who has taught me a great deal about the cycles and phases of life and prepared me as best she can for the coming time. -- and would probably prompt me at this point that I've wandered a little far in the heavy direction from my original purpose of assuring everyone that things are BETTER now LOL...
anyhoo, if I'm parsing all the posts correctly it's Saoirsirse's turn to act next, followed by the swamp zombie to close out the round(

------------------------------------------------------ I was going to wait until Tarton's turn to respond to all you've shared with us about your current events to not clutter up the thread, but the longer I wait, the more I feel like an ass for not responding. These life changes are hard when they come at you all of a sudden and I'm not looking forward to when my parents health suddenly turns for the worse (they're in their 70's).
I can see you have a great mother and it's great to hear things are improving for you and her. I wish you and all your family luck and improved health in all it's forms and to find more happiness in each other's company. And an early Happy Birthday to your mom.
( :-D thank you and thank all of you for your support :),
(A couple things in general development of the campaign. I'm signed up as a player/DM playtester for the Unearthed Arcana material that WOTC is trying out for future D*D editions. Not sure whether the current one entirely fits anyone's character but I'm not sure it doesn't fit some as a possible multiclass either. And the old school D/Der in me is intrigued that they're bringing back the Psionicist concept as a class and ... well, I DID promise to help playtest the durn thing. so I at least have to offer it to you folk to be an honourable old school DM type IMHO ,,, lme know if anyone's interested)
(also, even as you are fighting the bullywugs and trying to learn what a certain lizardfolk shaman/practical joker would like to know, you suddenly get a strange tremor ... call it a "psychic flash", if you will ... that you are coming near at last to the elusive lair of which you have been so long in quest. Those of you that set out from Llandovion, at whatever point, get a brief vision in your minds of your employer's face:
... and then, like an echo in the mind's ear, Myrtea's voice relaying the clues discovered by Mr. Leewamba's personal diviner:
"In a mountain cave marked by bones ... ... watched over by berries of life and death .. .. behind stone that is locked with shadows; and behind the shadow of stone ..."
As Zladark heard the voice echo in his mind, his first thought was that the blood loss was beginning to affect him. But just to be safe, he yelled out between bloody coughs:
"Did you guys hear that?"
After another rasping cough, he added:
"Also, Gwrgi—if you could lend me some of that healing magic of yours, it would be most appreciated! If I don’t have to focus on patching myself up, I can go all out on this foul creature that’s trying to eat me!"
