Wendigo sees the half-drow sprinting at him, and he lets out a yelp, turning another direction, sprinting as fast as he can.

"I don't know what's happening, but it's no-" He is interrupted by a bout of coughing as he attempts to overuse his underused vocal cords. He appears quite perplexed by this, but he's currently too overwhelmed with terror to give it much thought.

Knox tilts his head to the side as the voice speaks right into his mind.

Knox taps his metal finger against his head with a metallic ting, seeing if anything changes.

"Are you hearing the voices as well, or am I malfunctioning?"

Seeing Vera and Wendigo heading away from the Demon, Knox calls out to the others.

"Stay together, lets not get lost in our efforts to escape! Follow Vera and Wendigo!"

Knox starts to follow Vera and Wendigo, but tries to keep the others in view as he moves.

Jhazaal follows the others as well, knowing they should not be separated if possible.

"Dammit!" Vera yells as Wendigo shifts course.  Seeing how far away they had gotten from the others and wishing she had a net or something on her person to stop him, she makes the split-second decision to regroup with the others before dealing with Wendigo and escaping this place.  Sprinting back to to Knox and Brio, Vera sees Jhazaal appear behind them and says quickly and disjointedly, "Brio put that down, it's not going to work against that thing!  Is our whole group here?  We have to get Wendigo to calm down and find a way out of here!  Any of you see a way of doing either?" 

(Which way are you going?  Land or water?)

(Wendigo is running away from anyone and anything on land.)

Since the demon is in water I'd say we are heading by land.

(Agreed.  Going by water seems like a bad choice at the moment haha)

13 save

"After those two. Away from the water!" As she runs, Brio looks to see if there is anything different about this demon (the way ti is talking has her suspicious if it is indeed the demon lord it claims to be) (Investigation? 21, -3 if it is perception) 

Brio is struck dumb by Demogorgon's gaze, and stands still, completely muddled.  She manages to shake himself free after he slaughters the kuo-toa, continuing her desperate flight.

She's pretty sure most demons aren't 30 feet tall.

(Are you still trying to head towards Gracklstugh?)

(Almost forgot about the NPCs.  Sarith, Eldeth and Jimjar are still with you.)

(Yes I believe so before heading to the Neverlight Grove.  Also when did we lose Stool and Bupiddo?)

(My bad, Stool is still with you.  Bupiddo slipped away in the commotion before Demogorgon rose.)

(Also, how are you handling Wendigo's flight and recalcitrance?)

(Well, Wendigo certainly isn't taking it well.)

(OOC: Not sure how to deal with his recalcitrance but was thinking of trying to restrain him somehow (either through magic, net or grapple))

Jhazaal wouldn't have any ideas for dealing with his runnign away from us.  He would only try to keep them all running away from the demon.

(OOC: Vera's goal is to just get Wendigo and the group out of there as fast as possible; she'd figure out the rest later.  She might bonk him on the head if he's being particularly resistant or aggressive to try and snap him out of it)

You all continue bravely running away, although Wendigo seems to be both running with and away from you.

(What are you all doing during your flight?  Just want to make sure Wendigo's fear is resolved before I move on.)

(Wendigo will continue to run until he’s either lost sight of them, too tired to go on, or somehow immobilized.)
