This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Red, learning to be stealthy, creeps along the path with as much quiet as he can muster, trying not to make a sound. He remains at the back of the pack, and struggles to keep up with the rest of the group since they’re walking at normal speed. When they approach the chanting ne'er-do-wells, he hugs the wall to disappear, hopefully to sneak up on them for a surprise attack.

From the rear of the group, Red will lean out a bit so he can get a clear picture of the group. Sizing them up, he noticed that Cultist4 is extra ugly, in his mismatched robes that just don’t match this seasons popular colors and textures. A punishment is required for this fashion faux pas, so Red hurls his dagger at Cultist4 in a surprise attack-
Red's dagger clatters against the rock wall as the cultists chant something awful. They can see you all. Hank is up. You have moved, so you can make a ranged attack if possible.
The cultists are trying to summon a tentacle of the Pit Beast!
18
A terrifying large tentacle emerges from the mist! It is well over a hundred feet long, stretching miles down. The cultists chant louder, controlling it!
A true shot! Cultist5 dies. When he falls, his abdomen explodes violently and tentacles writhe from his belly angrily! What manner of horror is this!? The body does not move, the tentacles from the cultists stomach whip and lash!
Cultist2, his torso exploding in a wet way, revealing an octomass! Cultist3 gets hit with a dart too! They lay there and writhe, attacking anyone who would get too close! They need to be killed in order to pass further down the stairway.
Cultist1, with no other cultists to control the tentacle, loses control of it! The massive tentacle descends back into the pit! Cultist1 throws a dagger at Wilma! Attack: 11 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
