Re: Chapter 22: Underworld
"Soldiers passed through here before, unbothered by the bats. How did they do it?" shouts Kiri as he lashes out again with Cranach.
Attack with Trident +1, Claw of Chobek (THAC0:18): To Hit: [1d20+4]=8+4=12 Damage vs. s/m: [1d6+8]=4+8=12, vs. Lg: [3d4+7]=7+7=14
"There are too many. We should run north and find cover," he says, his words muffled by the flapping of a thousand wings.

Dahinna
The Zamoran rogue doesn't flinch from the pain of the bats. Instead she lashes out with her sword...and hits nothing but air!

Re: Chapter 22: Underworld
The Caverns of Thracia, Pictland, the World of Hyboria
Day Eleven. Late Morning. 21st day of the month of Qrot, 1280th year of the Age of Aquilonia
The thick airborne swarm fouls the explorers' aim and blinds their sight!
Cruloc, Dahinna, Kiri and Zahra cannot land a telling blow against the screeching maelstrom that lacerates their flesh! (3hp, 2hp, 1hp, and 3hp damage respectively)
As Amethu watches the pitch blackness behind them, Grigor and Torix loose arrows into the flailing torrent of wings, claws and fangs! The gypsy priest fells a gigantic bat, and the Pict savage grazes another!
"Soldiers passed through here before, unbothered by the bats. How did they do it?!" Kiri cries, lantern aloft against the writhing storm of the teaming colony. Then, "There are too many. We should run north and find cover!"
Actions?!

Re: Chapter 22: Underworld
Torix, as yet unwounded, says loudly, I count four big ones still flying. Do as Kiri says, and I back out behind you as rear guard. He looses two more arrows at a man-sized bat.

Grigor shortbow attacks [1d20+3]=14+3=17 [1d6]=4 [1d20+3]=17+3=20 [1d6]=2
"Raise your torches, the flaming firebrands will keep the small ones at bay and we can take out these greater beasts."
The hound yaps and barks too, jumping to bite and tear at a fluttering critter than he can nibble. They tease him flying above his reach.

"I think some bat fur got in my mouth!" sputters Kiri as he takes one last attack before attempting the sprint northward:

Day Eleven. Late Morning. 21st day of the month of Qrot, 1280th year of the Age of Aquilonia
The adventurers hold their position in the shrilling, blinding chaos and try to weather the tempest of bats! The attacks of Dahinna, Torix and Zahra are ruined by the unrelenting cascade!
But two dead-eyed arrows from Grigor's bow fly into the heart of the storm, and the screeching airborne beast looming above Zahra crashes down to the stones! (B15)
With cruel arcs of sword and trident, Cruloc and Kiri cut two more giant creatures asunder mid-flight in a harvest of gore and blood! (B6, B12)
Behind them, Amethu bludgeons a natural-sized bat out of the air! At Grigor's urging, he and Dahinna raise lantern and torch, and the last two gigantic chiropterans descend upon them with rapacious claws and fangs! (1hp damage each)
Actions?!

Torix ducks his head as the big bat (B9) swoops down from above to behind. He turns and quickly looses two arrows at its side, from close range.

Frustrated and bleeding, Dahinna lashes out at the giant bat (B13...I think), screaming at the same time, "Leave me the hell alone!"

The Caverns of Thracia, Pictland, the World of Hyboria
Day Eleven. Late Morning. 21st day of the month of Qrot, 1280th year of the Age of Aquilonia
In the swirling screeching bedlam, the raiders of lost Thracia dismember the last two gargantuan bats by sword, trident and arrow! In crimson heaps lay the mangled corpses of the giant chiropterans.
Their natural-sized kin still whirl in a blinding, deafening vortex of fear and confusion, but neither bite nor rend.
