Clint examined the burning remains of the mummy. The husk appeared to be little more than a host for the spider swarm to reside within. Dargoth moved closer to the empty sarcophagi so that he could better examine them. “Does anyone want to examine the stairs?” the fighter asked as he neared the object of his curiosity. Clint cautioned the fighter about doing anything rash. "Easy friend... let’s make sure this is stamped out, and bind our wounds a moment..."


Kirlic switched back to his bow and move to the southeast to better examine the statue. He notices that it depicts a regal figure but one that is shackled hand and foot to his throne.

Banjo and Leera enter the room. The sorcerer continued concentration on his Detect Magic spell but still did not find any telling auras.

Thurstan moved into the room and Channeled Positive Energy, healing Clint 10 damage and his wolf and Dargoth to full. Thurstan’s wolf sat and worked on getting spider carapace out of its teeth.

“Here comes more trouble and it is not my fault!” cried Dargoth as a spider as large as a horse rose up on spindly legs while breaking through the curtain of webs high upon the southern wall. It climbed down the web to the floor next to Kirlic, prepared to attack. As it moved, pieces of gray chitin flaked off.

Clint tumbled through the mummy’s space and moved far enough back to take a shot safely. The elf hit with his longbow dealing 4 damage. The Mummy turned its eye toward Dargoth. It stepped forward and swung a mighty blow with its arms. The attack missed the fighter. Dargoth ignored the mummy and continued to smash the swarm of spiders with his flail. The fighter’s efforts paid off as he dealt 13 damage and caused the swarm to disperse.


Kirlic changed weapons to his Elven Curve Blade as he stepped forward and attacked the mummy. The fighter missed the monster. Banjo cast another Scorching Ray at the mummy, hitting for 19 damage. The monster fell to the ground but a new swarm of spiders burst from its corpse.

Leera continued to sing to support the group’s efforts. Thurstan prepared and threw another burning flask of oil into the far corner of the swarm. The missile hit and started to burn causing 3 damage to the mass of spiders. Thurstan’s wolf tentatively bit at the swarm but was not able to mount an effective attack.

Sorry for the dely

Sorry for the delay in posting the last turn. I was sick for a fair chunk of the time and have been very busy at work. I will do my best to post turns in a timely manner assuming the players do the same.

Dust chokes the air in the large, open room. Webs cover the walls, but you can see the gleam of their glasslike surfaces in a few clear patches. The webs also blanket the walls to the south and cover the large statue in the center of the room. You can barely make out its features – it appears to be a man sitting on a throne. Tracks of humanoids are apparent leading from the door deeper into the chamber.


To the northeast are what appear to be four open sarcophagi.

As you enter the room, a swarm of bright red, fist-sized spiders boils out of the webs, rushing toward you. At the same time a human-shaped creature wrapped in webs shambles out from behind the web-shrouded statue. Its skin ripples as if many tiny creatures squirm inside, and through openings in its wrappings, you see flashes of red.

Roll initiative.

The fey man spoke to the group.


“My name is Sigur and this waterfall is my home. I am not the King for which this tomb was built.”

“Listen, evil ones have proceeded you into the tomb, where they will certainly be destroyed. The Betrayer is compelled to slay them, if the foul creature in the next room does not.”

“Who has gone ahead, you say? Well, I took them to be two hobgoblins, a goblin, a halfling and a strange humanoid of unknowable origins. I rushed them to the clutches of the evil spider that lives beyond.”

“It has learned I wish it ill, and it comes and goes in the night. I cannot watch this way in my sleep. My duty to guard these falls is more important than risking my life driving it from the tomb. Still, it is an abomination, and it must be destroyed. Weapons touched by virtue can harm the spider most easily.”

“Other evils lurk beyond. If you kill the spider, I will grant you my silvered battleaxe as reward and aid against what may lay further on.”

Sigur motioned you forward, providing assistance to those having trouble navigating the ledge. You navigated safely to the far door.
