"Or goblin!" Hobb cries, as he pulls free his mace and begins to march forward. If it could pick off a Halfling, a spider would certainly have no issue with ensnaring a goblin for lunch.

Hobb plants himself between the stricken goblin and the spider, standing over the goblin so as to interfere with the spider and its meal.

He draws up his mace, and whacks it out solidly when the spider skitters close!
OOC:
Do we add strength modifier to the damage too?

Rolls

STR + Mace Mastery - (1d20+3+1+1)

(7) + 5 = 12

Damage + Mace Mastery - (1d6+1)

(4) + 1 = 5

OOC:
In Shadowdark, you don't add strength to damage.

The spider (spider 2) turns and quickly moves to the left as Hobb barely misses with his mace. A gurgling spills forth from its saliva-covered maw. It's many eyes flick to the goblin on the ground and then back at Hobb. It then lunges at Hobb and bites his shoulder.
OOC:
Hobb, one point of damage, and I need you to roll a DC 12 CON save versus paralysis.

Rolls

Spider Attack Bite (Hobb) - (1d20+3)

(17) + 3 = 20

Spider Damage (Hobb) - (1d4)

(1) = 1

Hobb feels those mandibles drink deep!

"Agggh!" he cries, as the thing’s full weight hits him!

Rolls

CON Save - (1d20+2)

(17) + 2 = 19

Aug 20, 2025 12:12 pm
OOC:
Hobb's constitution holds, no paralysis.

Next up is Llewellyn.

With the other spider slain, I manuever to where the other was positioned, hoping to reinforce where my other Wayfarers were in peril, with the other spider still a persistent threat, now, to Hobb, among us. I raised my bastard sword and gave it a heave to try and put out the spider for good.

Rolls

Attack - (1d20+6)

(2) + 6 = 8

Damage - (1d10+1)

(6) + 1 = 7

After sprinting over to Hobb, the weight of Llewellyn's sword throws him off balance. His swing goes wide and hits the ground instead of the spider.
OOC:
Next up is Lillit.
Aug 20, 2025 10:47 pm
Lillit brings her open hands toward one another in front of her and sings a song inaudibly, under her breath, as she weaves shadow together, but again she loses her concentration at the sight of the spider.
OOC:
Whelp! Another failed spell!

OOC:
These spiders are super scary. Sorry that the dice are all against us.

Ivar's turn.
Aug 21, 2025 12:53 am
Ivar seeing that this battle is going poorly will nock, aim, and loose another arrow.

Rolls

to hit, damage - (1d20+1, 1d4+1)

1d20+1 : (11) + 1 = 12

1d4+1 : (4) + 1 = 5

OOC:
Dang, sorry, Ivar. So close.

Next is Orm.
Aug 21, 2025 6:25 am
Moving his hands in a practiced manner, a glowing ball of blue-white energy forms in between them, a single arcane word expelling it forth toward the remaining nuisance of a spider. "Hadouken!"
OOC:
rolling with advantage by default

Rolls

Magic Missile (INT) - (1d20+3)

(9) + 3 = 12

Magic Missile (Adv) - (1d20+3)

The spider (spider 2) lurches as the ball of magical energy hits its abdomen. The smell of burning hair rises in the air. It turns towards Orm and chitters.
OOC:
Nikkghak, I'm thinking that I will run your paralysis kinda like dying (only you won't die). Roll a d20, and if you roll a 2,0 your paralysis will end and you can act.

Then it will be Hobb's turn.
Aug 22, 2025 2:47 pm
"Aghhhr!" The goblin twitches as his limbs begin to spasm and lock up, and he falls flat over on his face.
OOC:
Ok! Here goes!

Edit: That's not a 20...

OOC:
No, it is not.

Hobb, you're up. Kill this spider!
Aug 22, 2025 6:52 pm
Emboldened by the death of the other spider, and clearly made of stern stuff, Hobb rushes at the final foe. Rush… as only an aged Halfling fighter could manage. If the thing was foolish enough to stand in Hobb’s way, the half man would surely bowl the arachnid over.

Mace twirling, he strikes!

Rolls

STR - Mace Mastery - (1d20+4)

(18) + 4 = 22

Damage + Mastery - (1d6+1)

(5) + 1 = 6

The spider (spider 2) screams and rears after Hobb hits it in the head with his mace. The blunt force pierces the elephantine hide, and blood issues forth. It turns away from Orm and lunges again at Hobb. With one of it's hairy legs, it pulls Hobb closer and sinks a fang into Hobb's thigh.
OOC:
Sorry Hobb. Once again, DC 12 CON save versus paralysis.

Then Llewellyn's turn. Finish him!

Rolls

Who will the Spider attack (1-3 Orm, 4-6 Hobb) - (1d6)

Once more, Llewellyn tried to swing his sword at the ever-enduring spider, hoping to end it once and for all. He hefted the hand and a half sword in his and and swung with purpose, hoping to sweep and strike at vulnerable flesh left exposed near him as the spider was between him and Hobb, not that it was stuck, perchance, but between the two, death was waiting, he hoped.

Rolls

Attack - (1d20+6)

(1) + 6 = 7

OOC:
Shoot, Llewellyn, tough roll.

Lillit's turn. Any spells left?
Aug 23, 2025 6:36 pm
Lillit is out of spells she could use, so she draws her dagger and thrusts it at the spider.

Rolls

Dagger - (1d20)

(11) = 11

Damage on hit - (1d4)
