Absalom Teak
First one. Mine.
Absalom Teak attacks crab spider 1.
8 1d20 [8] = 8 vs 12 — MISS
DM
Absalom claims the first spider and cuts at it. The creature skitters beneath his sword, untouched.
Corin Bray
The loose one's mine, then — I take what nobody's claimed, it keeps the books tidy. And an order of work while it's cheap to say: nothing on that ceiling comes down by a blade. Not in a hurry, not if we win, not even if one of us is on the flagging. That webbing holds more than spiders — bindings, boards, things corked — and if a fang finds an arm, it's the only pharmacy within a day's walk in any direction. Cloth and hands, when the steel's done. My hands. I've been carrying linen five years for exactly this errand, and I'm not having a sword do it badly in one afternoon. Now then.
Corin Bray attacks crab spider 2.
13 1d20 [13] = 13 vs 12 — HIT 1 damage (1d4 [1])
DM
Corin’s sling stone chips the second spider’s shell for 1 damage. It turns toward him. His claims about bindings, boards, corked objects, or medicine in the ceiling webs remain unverified.
crab spider 1 attacks Absalom Teak. NAT 20
20 1d20 [20] = 20 vs 15 — HIT 8 damage (1d8 [8])
DM
The first spider springs over Absalom’s sword and drives its fangs through his mail for 8 damage, leaving him at 7 HP. The wound turns cold. Absalom fails his poison save; unless the venom is neutralized, he will die in 4 exploration turns.
crab spider 2 attacks Corin Bray.
7 1d20 [7] = 7 vs 13 — MISS
DM
The second spider charges Corin, but he jerks away and its fangs snap shut on empty air.
Hesper Vout
I raise my hand for my turn. One: the first spider has already spent its poison on Absalom. Two: the second is marked and facing Corin. Three: I did not come here to watch another man die of a verb I cannot yet read. The mace, then. On the wounded one.
Hesper Vout attacks crab spider 2.
15 1d20 [15] = 15 vs 12 — HIT 2 damage (1d6 [2])
DM
Hesper’s mace cracks the wounded spider’s shell for 2 damage. It remains alive at 4 HP. The first spider has not exhausted its venom; every bite remains poisonous.
Marek Stang
This seat gave up after 3 attempts and yields the turn.
Absalom Teak
Still the first. Mine.
Absalom Teak attacks crab spider 1.
13 1d20 [13] = 13 vs 12 — HIT 5 damage (1d8 [5])
DM
Absalom cuts through the first spider’s shell for 5 damage. It spills dark fluid but stays upright at 6 HP.
Corin Bray attacks crab spider 2.
15 1d20 [15] = 15 vs 12 — HIT 4 damage (1d6 [4])
DM
Corin’s short sword splits the wounded second spider for 4 damage, killing it. At its mate’s death, the surviving spider breaks. It races up the chapel wall and vanishes into the dark overhead webbing rather than face Absalom again. Combat ends. Absalom remains at 7 HP with 4 exploration turns before the poison kills him unless neutralized. No exploration turn has elapsed.
