I was born to hack, ranger! cries Korgul, charging after SoT and attacking the giant centipede.
Battle Axe: attack roll: [1d20 + 2] = 5+2 = 7 damage roll: [1d8 + 3] = 8+3 = 11

Day 1 – 10:07a
Round 2
The creature presses forward mindlessly, he’s found his next meal!
Unfortunately the victims don’t comply. Creatures initiative is [1d6] = 1 you win initiative.
While Odo is still unable to strike the creature. Rake gets in a fantastic swing with his sword. Cutting a big gash in it’s body and he sees a happy flinch of pain from the creature.
Both are happy to see spears, mace and blade though coming to the rescue, just as the creature rears up to attack the duo, it becomes a big pincushion of spears. With a thud of a mace to seal the deal. It falls to the ground, unmoving.
Varkos comes slowly up, sword out, dragging 40 pounds of plant matter behind him. “It is you guys,” he says with a wave.
With no common enemy, now you all take a minute to look around at each other, nobody quite ready to put down weapons quite yet.
and then there were 10.

Son of Thunder looks back and forth between Varkos and the new pair. Seems we have a mutual friend. The big galoot is brave enough, and strong as a bear. But since you seem to have the advantage in this cave, do you have a way to get that green growth off Varkos, and my friend Malak as well?

"So Rake, Odo where did you guys get to? Last thing I remember was coming down the 'ladder' into the cave with you and the others...where did they go by the way? ... then I woke up with you all gone."

Odo rubs his head.
We where in the group, and got sleepy, and woke up when you big folks made enough noise that even a blind orc could of found you.

Perhaps we could use some wine to help disolve the stickiness of the plant? Unfortunately, I do not have any to lend.

"Anyone have some wine, perhaps it will loosen the plants." Odo thinks aloud.

"Or we could just hack them off" Al'Zur notes offhand.

No wine here, either. Perhaps some oil from a lantern could help loosen the grip? Of course then our friends'll be a mite flammable... There's always the axe method, though, which I often find ta bo the best.

The Ranger again silently curses himself for bringing torches instead of oil. Was there any luck at all with fire? I don't believe leaving them stuck is harmless.

Zafalia looks over the new editions to the group with an assessing eye. Her eyebrows go up as she envisions Malak and Vargos dousing themselves in lamp oil.
"Hmm, perhaps there is another way. It is possible that they could just release themselve after some time," muses the druidess as she cleans the bug goo from her spear and moves over to inspect the plant remnants attached to Vargos and Malak.
She will closely scrutinize the flora in the hope that her knowledge of plants and such might help her to discover what could be done to get them off.

Varkos pauses in his swinging at the plant to let the druidess more closely examine his attachment."What do you think Zafalia? I still think hacking is the best way!"
OOC - Ron has The Big V done any appreciable damage to the blasted plant yet?

"Wine?" Rake blurts out,
"Yes I have some wine; got two skins full of in fact."
He fumbles with his load and produces the aforementioned wineskins, tossing one to Odo and taking a swill from the other one.
"Hmm...this is the good stuff! Try no to waste too much of it one the vegetable-things will you?"

Odo pours a bit of wine on the attached area to see if it loosens the plant mass.

Day 1 – 10:10a
The Druidess is inspecting the plants. PM sent. The problem, the blade carriers can see, with hacking them off, is the sticky tendrils are real short, like 6 inches long. They've attached real tight to their victims, so it's a matter of slicing/hacking off the main pod/body of the plant. Which is sappy messy work, and sloppy too both to the blades and the victims.
Trying the wine does seem to help loosen them a bit. Though it's real hard to tell whether it's the wine or time.

HPs: Malak - 15/15; Varkos - 22/22; Ilhalevar - 8/8; Al'Zur- 7/7; SoT - 25/25; Wulfgard - 12/12; Zafalia - 11/11; Korgul - 24/24; Odo - 17/17; Rake - 6/6

Ilhalevar studies those tangled up in vines for a bit and suggests, "Why don't we just take a breather and get to know our new companions and see if they don't just fall off on their own?"

"
Good idea, because I can't go anywhere with this.... thing... attached to me." Malak states, before realizing how
accurately weak that makes him sound. "
I mean, I could press on, if we needed to, but getting to know our new companions might not be the worst idea."
He looks to the strangers and nods. "
Malak." he offers.

After closer inspection, Zafalia looks up to Malak and Varkos.
"Fret not, friends. It appears, now that the plants are dead, that the sticky resin is losing adhesion. Given a few more moments, I believe that they will fall off on their own..."

The druidess offers a curt nod to the newcomers.
"Well met then, again. I am Zafalia, druidess of the Ancient Groves. Are you all here on behalf of the village as well?"

"My name is Odo," Takes swig of wine before giving it back. "I live by my wits, Thank thee for the help on the multi-legged beast of doom. I have not seen that many legs since I went to the House of the rising sun.."
