one of them walks over and starts to eat. however, it spits it out and starts to retch. Sivir and Mama chan, you know these things only eat a certain kind of bug that also originated from the plane of dreams.
OOC: if you would prefer to have left the donkey that is fine, but I am willing to let you have brought it.

“I will take responsibility for what I have done. [...] If must fall, I will rise each time a better man.” ― Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer.
Suddenly remembering more about the jumpers, Sivir pipes up, "Perhaps don't touch these things, my friends. These dream jumpers will defend themselves by disseminating a number of sharp spines coating in a dangerous sleeping toxin. We're best to leave them be, and don't try to feed them. They eat a specific bug that we are unlikely to find here."
(DM Question - would Sivir know how to get rid of them, pick them up or anything of the sort, in a safe manner without creating sleepy explosions?)
(sivir- no, you mainly have to wait for them to move on. something is nigling in the back of your head but you cannot place it. also, the spines are more like feathers coated in powder.)
(Tulip brought the donkey, but not the cart, cause we have split interest) the donkey, already sensing something wrong, spooks as you put your hand on its head. the last thought that goes through your mind, tulip, is how cute the jumpers look when they poof. unfortunately the other five jumpers also poof.
Sivir, you find yourself enlightened in your last moment of consciousness. the third and final point that had evaded your memory was that these Dream Jumpers have a symbiotic relationship with a certain type of goblin. they protect the Jumpers, and in exchange, they use them to track and neutralize their prey. this thought jumbles through your mind as a warty face looks you over. if only you could stay awake.....
everyone other than Sivir, Tulip and Kronk (they were in the direct blast) can make a constitution saving throw against sleep, but it will be nigh on impossible.

just getting to that. as I said earlier, these little beasties have a natural sleep toxin. meaning that everyone is asleep. (the DC was 21). Sivir still has a roll...

almost as quickly as everything faded to black, you feel yourself awake. you remember the strangest, happiest dreams (if you want to post them in the discord feel free.). however, that ecstasy does not carry over into your current surroundings. the first thing you notice is the smell- rotting faeces, and dank bodies. Hektor, you know this smell means goblins, but it is stronger than you have ever smelled it before. you feel sharp ends poking into your spines, and as you rouse yourselves, you see you are in a rickety basket made of a ribcage. your hands are bound, and you feel no weapons or items on your bodies, and you have been stripped of your clothes, now wearing only rags, that smell the same as your surroundings. you see a couple of goblins standing guard around 30ft away, but they are asleep. Spellcasters- your captors seem to not know much about magic, as they have bound your hands at the wrist. you have no material components, but you can cast spells that only require verbal/somatic components.

(ooc: yeah, I don’t think we brought the cart or donkey, just set out with us)
OOC: We absolutely emptied the cart of corpse sludge and brought it with the Donkey who I name Dennis. We did this... it happened, it is known ;)
Do I know of anything these little darlings are attracted to? [Nature 5]
"Aw why would we want to get rid of the litte darlings?" I ask as I sprinkle rations on the ground.

(I wouldn’t want the cart just brings more attention but it’s up to the whole group.)
alright no cart

Seeing the look on the others faces I slowly back away from the little critters and go stand next to the donkey. "What?" I hiss to the others.
"What is wrong with them Dennis?" I croon while scratching the beast behind the ears and looking down at the adorable little fluff balls.

"Are you sure? they look so cute." I reply in a half whisper. [Animal Handling : 2]
OOC: Oh holy crap lol

Mamma Chan Saves at: 9
ooc: request luck roll.
Luck roll: 19
(Ooc Elodrin since you are an elf I don’t think you can be put to sleep right?)
Con save 9
(OOC - Sivir is half-elf also, so can’t be magically put to sleep. Not sure how you’re classing these creatures sleep ability though)
