Throg attempts to throw a boot at Dorgath, but it sails over the dwarf's head, skips along the wall, bounces off a corner, and lands in the pit of corrosive ooze.

Ok, I'm confused. I thought Throg was at the back of the group and Dorgath was at the front and the corrosive ooze was behind us. If the boot missed Dorgath, it should have landed against the wall on the south side of the corridor... or sailed into the next room. Is there another pile of corrosive ooze or am I confused about where we're all standing?

In the meantime is the mist just hanging there? Moving at all? Anything nasty popping out of it?

“Is this “elven” mist or magic? Chaos?” Dorgath looks expectantly at the elves and gives a sidelong glance to Throg.

I think we'll need to test the mist with something that's alive guys...any volunteers? :eek:

“Dwarven?”

ummm... are we in dwarven ruins? Its been so long I forgot 😂
Dorgath would recognize dwarven ruins and no, that's not what this is. In fact, the place generally isn't "ruined." Dorgath has been traversing these passages for a bit and I'll say that his background with stonework would tip him off to the fact that the roots didn't grow in and break into this stonework. Instead, the place was built around the roots, like the roots were already in-place or were perhaps channeled to grow in where they are. The roots are damaged and collapsing in places, but the stonework is in good shape. It's not dwarven stonework. You are below an elven city, so it's likely that that the tunnels are of elven construction. But the mist? Revaethan doesn't recognize the mist at all and is taken aback by Dorgath's assumption that the mist is elven.

Tomas walks into the room (voluntarily) and looks around.

"Well, I don't know whether it's dwarven mist or elven mist, but it does appear to be magical in nature. Hm, I think Ty is right: it's responding to my life force. Oh crap..."

The mist coalesces into the form of a banshee.

thats what I thought, that we were in some sort of elvish place. Sooo... why would Tev be taken aback about Dorg’s assumption? Elven place -> elven mist. <shrug>

Dorgath also comes to Tomas’s aid.

Ty attacks the banshee, trying to keep her from keening by ripping her throat out with his fist spike and knuckle-dusters... :devilish:

"Jekaena! Heal us!" Ty shouts out as takes a swig off a Heal-Itt potion and angrily tears into the mummies that are blocking his path to the banshee.

Two things...
  1. I have now color-coded the actions from the first round of combat. Not sure if anyone else besides TomB saw it already, but I'd initially left it without colors because I looked at my clock and decided I'd better immediately get ready for bed. But it's fixed now, so there.
  2. There's an updated overhead view of the board position posted in the Discord. The banshee is represented by a black circular token (which may or may not just be the token for the Barbarian that I flipped upside-down). The mummies are represented by pennies (I have mummy miniatures somewhere, but did not take the time to find them).
