Tells will carefully try to free himself with his dagger and climb back onto the bridge.
Haven't played this signature game in a long while but I'll try it out again.

Help these poor little guys hatch.

The opposite on the actions I chose so in this case Forges will Defend Tells as he is cutting himself out himself. He will switch back to the mace if it a free action.

Zaks continues to keep the rope taught.

Walks With The Wind tries tying the rope to the beam. She manages to do so but the rope is now much lower to the beam and her companions now have a more awkward time holding on (same balance bonus but larger attack penalty while holding on and trying to use both hands. She equips her bow but doesnÔÇÖt have time to fire this round.

Laughs Creepily attacks the spider thatÔÇÖs attacking him. He manages to strike it hard scaring it back for a moment.

Forges for Food attacks the spider attacking Tells Bad Jokes. He manages to reach down far enough to hit it, doing light damage to it and getting its attention away from tells.

Tells Bad Jokes tries freeing himself. He manages to free his other arm and cut loose some of the strands. He is now only Entangled

A spider attacks Laughs Creepily. It does no damage but knocks his footing loose. He manages to recover it thanks to his extra balance but it was a close call. Forges for Food is also attacked but manages to block it while staying firmly planted on the beam.

@everyone, sorry it took so long. There was a back-up that prevented me from working on several projects, which then all had to be completed in a very short amount of time. Combined with getting sick, I had no time or energy to put towards this.

@Walks, there is no bonus to aiming, but you still didnÔÇÖt have time as securing the rope took too long.

@Badge, I didnÔÇÖt get an action from you so you just held onto the rope.

So, until this whole bridge debacle is solved, Zaks is essentially on high alert with a readied action in case anything jumps out of the darkness, but otherwise, I won't be posting for every update.

Laughs Creepily attacks the spider attacking him and scares it off.

Forges for Food defends Tells Bad Jokes. He strikes the spider again dealing minor damage.

Tells Bad Jokes manages to free himself completely.

Walks With The Wind fires off an arrow at a spider but finds the arrow just bounces off the carapace and falls down into the fissure.

Zaks continues to hold the rope.

The spider that Laughs Creepily had previously scared off decides to attack Forges for Food instead. So does the one he was defending Tells Bad Jokes against. He manages to block one but the other bites his leg dealing 1 damage. He manages to keep his footing and kick off the spider before the venom takes effect

"I've this feeling spiders think i look like a giant yellow bloat fly."

Forges attack the heavily wounded one if it's still alive if not he attacks the other.
If he drops to 1 hit point before he attacks he will swig his last normal healing potion instead.

Walks sighs, puts her bow & arrows away and gets her axe out. She will try to cut the webbing under the beam (so no more spiders can come up from there, and no more vibrations will be carried along it), without disturbing it too much. She'll kneel down on the normal floor (not go onto the beam for now) and touch the web only with the sharp part of the axe. She also pays great attention to not accidentally cutting the rope.

Laughs Creepily attacks one of the spiders attacking forges, killing it. As it goes limp it falls down into the void.

Forges for Food attacks the other spider attacking him, dealing minor damage.

Tells Bad Jokes attacks a spider but finds he is unable to hurt it.

Walks With The Wind tries to cut away some of the webbing but it extends way too far into the beam and below the edge of the cliff for her to make any real difference. She might have to go out onto the beam to make a real difference. However, there doesnÔÇÖt seem to be any more spiders coming up from below.

The spiders attack Laughs Creepily and Forges for Food but are not able to hurt them. Laughs Creepily is nearly knocked off but manages to keep his footing.

Laughs will hold tight to the rope and back up towards the far side of the bridge, hoping to draw the spider attacking him away from the other two.

-If it seems to follow, he'll move all the way to the far side so he's on solid ground before attacking it.
-If it seems to be about to turn back, he'll halt his movement, keep the rope looped through one arm and attack.

Walks starts to slowly crawl out onto the beam, on all fours for easier balancing, slinging the rope once around one of her limbs as soon as possible, cutting away the webbing as she goes. She remains mindful of spiders (below, above, sideways, front, behind) and if one should come close enough to attack, she'll defend herself with the shield.


OOC: Imperative word here is SLOWLY. Taking her time, so if she misses a step she'll more likely be able to catch herself than losing balance. Also, she's like to have to go back for the rope and the less distance she has to 'reverse' on the beam, the better. o:)

Forges carries on attacking, hoping any spider within range doesn't think he's a delicious fly.

Zaks continues to hold the rope, being watchful of anything trying to sneak up on them from this far side of the chasm.

I think that it's been long enough. If chuck comes back to the forum we can resume this quest but for now...

A strange, shimmering solver portal appears in front of the gathered, purposeless goblins through which they can see the warm fire and merry bustle of the GAL HQ.

If you want to return to the GAL, you are very welcome. These portals will stay open fixed in time and space so if you guys get the chance to resume this quest you can pick up exactly where you left off. In the meantime, my internet is still out, but I'll see about getting an HQ update out for you at least if I manage to get access back.

Giggling maniacally, Laughs hops through the portal, and as he emerges in the common room of the headquarters, turns to face the portal, waiting for his companions to come through, but Lance of Terror ready to spear any spiders that follow.

"*Heehheuehehehe* C'mon guys!"
