Nyx relays to the others that the northern passage leads to a large open room with vegetation and warns the others to avoid the slime.

OOC:
Is there no way to move to avoid touching the slime other than flight?

Nyx pulls a layer of soil with his magic, from the garden, to create a raised path through the slime for the others

She adds on, "When they says they would be stand over you. Did you think that they were going to give you a standing ovation."

"Thank you Nyx. Not quite Sir Walter throwing his cloak down to allow the queen to tread unstained, but it's an age of lowered expectations."

Tante Lude essays the path. With her heavy armor and her tall and not skinny body, she's probably going to weigh 60 kg with the armor checking in at about 30 kg (just under 200 lbs). Add in her pack and weapons and she's over 200 lbs.
OOC:
What kind of roll will she need? Athletics, survival, better of the two?

Nyx discovers that garden grows in a rotting compost rather than a solid soil, but manage to magically move some of the compost to cover the slime.
OOC:
Since compost is loose I would like everyone moving it over to tell me if their wight including everything they carry is above 200 lbs. I guess Nyx is safe, but those of you carry heavy armor will have chances to sink your foot till the slime


Golden skull ignores Criella's talking and keep throwing it's random jokes toward here, though some of them now include reference to the fact that when Criella finally find her death in this underground she is going be be "buried" 200 + feet under the ground in the most impressive catacombs.
OOC:
What do you do next?

Strong Flying Criella is rather short at 4'11" and soak & wet with gear would not break 200 pounds. And is still very annoyed with the Skull.

A pungent stench fills this pentagonal room, the walls of which are covered with riveted sheets of iron. A wild garden full of sickly plants and rotting compost takes up most of the interior, and a narrow path hugs the walls between two exits (one you stand at and another to your left). Jutting from the middle of the garden is a six-foot-tall rusty sprinkler. In the ceiling above the sprinkler, a ten-foot-wide shaft leads straight up.
OOC:
The dashed line shows where shaft exists above you
With others now in the room Nyx sends Zim up to examine the shaft while he moves to the room and uses some minor magic to investigate the room before he moves cautiously into it.
OOC:
activate Shillelagh and use Magehand to prod/move the plants then Druidcraft to freshen up the air

OOC:
@badbaron that's going to to be a DC 13 dex saving throw to avoid the damage I'm rolling.
I will also wait for info on Orsik and Celestial course of action before narrate anything further, but inform @Psybermagi on monkey discovery


GreyWord sent a note to Psybermagi

Tante Lude strides confidently on the path her ally had made. But, the dirt is slippery and her armor does not give her great traction. She slips and goes to a knee, right in a path of the nasty slime.

Be it for the luck or just because the naturally unpleasant compost makes it easier on stepping into the slime Orsik and Tanle Lude end up in the room just a bit frustrated
OOC:
1 point of damage each
Meanwhile Nyx makes pretty sure the plants in the room are just plants and are not going to try eat you.

You all enter this room
OOC:
Except celestial, right? ANd except monkey who fly up through the shaft
[ +- ] MAP
You could see into next pentagonal chamber through connection and you can smell an acidic stench coming from that pentagonal chamber, which has another exit to west. The walls are covered with riveted sheets of iron, and the pockmarked stone floor has a large puddle of gray slime in the middle of it. Friezes along each wall just beneath the ceiling depict five black dragons.
OOC:
What do you do? The slime puddles are large, but room even larger - here you will have no problem to walk around them
Jul 23, 2025 1:42 pm
The Celestial follows unless and until it becomes physically impossible though he can fly if the corridor is large enough.
Jul 23, 2025 3:29 pm
OOC:
A bit more damage to Celestial in that case
Looking forward for your further actions

Calling Zim back down he relays that the shaft leads up the the square stairwell they had previously descended. He then performans a ritual casting of Detect Magic and looks around again before proceeding to examine the next chamber, focusing on the friezes.

Orsik knows little about plants so he will move to the other chamber keep away from the slime and checking the layout to see if there is any other exits.
