Rova 5th 17 - That's a good lickin'

The group awake from an uneventful night and a complete downpour,

The group continue heading south and after a while both Miro and Vaneer notice that the area they happen to be travelling through had signs that fey were in the area but at the moment nowhere to be seen.

They decide not to waste time looking into the area and eventually end up at the edge of what appears to be a rather miserable looking part of a swap with lots of swamp gas.

Vaneer attempts to crack a joke about trouser snakes but it is only met with sighs and groans.

They leave the swamp behind and try to find a way round it when the soon come across a large hillock, as they get closer it soon becomes apparent that it wasn’t a hillock but actually 22ft tall froglike creature with 3 eyes and tentacles! (Frogamoth).

Otto immediately gets close to the party so that they are all encompassed within his casting of haste,

Boss shoots at the Frogamoth and hits,

Frogamoth hits Miro…HARD! And then Tongue’s Otto with its 30ft long tongue.

Vaneer starts casting,

Miro fails to feint the giant frog but still manages to land a successful blow,

Hugo moves into attack and hits,

Natalia starts casting a spell,

Bob charges into attack,

Frogamoth swallows Otto (Ewwww!!!),

Otto attempts to cast Dimensional door from within the Frogamoths belly which luckily succeeds and transports him back to the group,

Boss shoots and misses,

Frogamoth hits Miro whilst grappling Hugo with its tongue,

Vaneer summons an earth elemental which lands a blow on the frogamoth,

Vaneer casts prayer,

Miro attacks back and hits,

Hugo tries to stab a lighting javelin into the creature,

Natalia also summons an earth elemental which also hits the frogamoth,

Otto attempts to hit it with a ray of enfeeblement but the ray fails,

Boss shoots and hits the creature twice,

Frogamoth hits Miro again and swallows Hugo,

Vaneers elemental hits the creature hard,

Vaneer casts searing light and hits his target,

Miro attacks and hits multiple times cutting the creatures side open allowing Hugo to escape,

Natalia summons another elemental,

Bob attacks but misses,

The elementals hit for a fair amount of damage,

Natalia casts guidance on her latest elemental,

Otto casts Hold Monster which takes hold on the frogamoth at which point Otto kicks a stone and grumbles about not casting that spell sooner,

Boss attacks the held creature and hits,

Vaneer’s elemental hits the frogamoth again doing enough damage to kill the 16,000lb beast as it collapses and crushes Miro,

Whilst the others attempt to pull Miro free, Vaneer and Natalia set out to heal up the party.

With it still raining the group continue their slog of a journey.

As the group are travelling through a small wooded area they suddenly could hear what sounded like trees crashing and breaking before Miro was pointing up into the air screaming “GIANT!”

The group look up to see that crashing through the trees whilst fighting each other were indeed two giants, giant snails!

Suddenly the snails’ attention seem to turn to the group and they stop fighting each other.

Vaneer not wasting any time casts flamestrike at one of the giant snails,

Natalia casts Spiked Growth,

Bob charges in and lands a blow on one of the snails,

Otto also casts a flamestrike,

Boss shoots and hits,

One slug attacks Bob and hits,

The other slug spits acid at Vaneer,

Miro moves into a flanking position on one of the snails,

Hugo attacks and kills the most injured slug,

Vaneer casts a create water spell to help wash off the acid covering him,

Natalia casts a flamestrike,

Otto cast a fireball which kills the remaining snail.

They turn north east and before sunset decide to set up camp for the night.
