Bel's Age of Worms [IC]

[BelGareth]

the horde of beetles moves over the lip of the hole in the floor, like torrential rain going the wrong direction. They swarm around several of you as a huge spider like abomination pokes its central eye out of the vertical shaft and moves towards you with clacking sounds of its sword like legs against the stone.

The mad slasher attacks Robul as the closest threat in the room, as the swarm of beetles move over everyone in their path. You notice they leave a yellowish trail wherever they go.

As it moves forward it is poked by something invisible, and manages to step on a caltrop, though, if it cares is another matter, as it is hard to tell when looking at the strange maddening eye.
