Tau Pei suddenly realizes the seriousness of the threat before them. Despite his impairment, he is suddenly focused on his enemies, and sends an arrow thuding firmly into his assailant's thorax. Odin also scores a solid hit, and now it is obvious that the spider is starting to weaken.

However, it draws resolve from the presense of it's mate, and together they begin to rain down the pain.

acid is unique in that it persists for 1 round, dealing the same dice of damage as round 1. Tau Pei suffers (1d4+1)[3] acid damage as it fades away.

Syrus
Abondoning he wand in disgust, she draws up her bow, and moves to stand in the middle of the room. She draws out and ties an Alchemist's fire to one her arrows, preparing it to fire. This ought to give the buggers a shock....

Tau Pei's arrow whizzes through the air, as though giuded by fate itself, and thuds solidly into the head portion of the spider. It's mate shrieks with rage as it falls heavily to the floor. A swift look at the still frame of of the giant beast, confirms that if the arrow didn't kill, the fall sure did.

Odin gets a woozy feeling, and slip-slides his way up the stairs, manageing an impressive rate despite the slickness. The spider notes his new found proximity, and clicks satisfactorily with itself. it seems confident that her barrier will hold him at bay, and continues to fires poisonous loogies at syrus.

yes, you do need a new balance check, and I am so sorry, dude, but you rolled a natural 1, which is a critical failure. For failing by more than 5, you fall prone in the square you were in. In addition, for a natural 1, you will need to make DC 10 Reflex save to aviod falling off the stairs to the floor 50 ft below you. Tau Pei's action will happen before this resolves, so I will wait for his post. Feel free to go ahead and roll.

I regret that the fight in tower seems to have eclipsed the adventure in the house, but you in house haven't actually done anything except to carefull inspect a door, and to fire an arrow blindly into a sack of meal at the bottom of the stairs. Don't be shy now.....

Oh my god you guys, you have just the most awful luck when it comes saving throws. Tau Pei fails his fortitude save, and suffer (1d6)[4] dexterity damage. And no worries about the delayed posting. This game is moving at an impressive pace, so a small slow-down is no big deal.

Syrus

syrus looks around for that cleric that was so quietly menacing earlier, but a brief glace at the tower threshold shows running footprints away from the tower. Syrus turns to Tau Pei and states "He's buggered off... she then turns to asses the partes condition. The burn on Tau Pei's leg appears not too bad, but the sweat still pulsing from his brow, as well as the heat and tint of the flesh near the wound, indicate a more sinister condition. Syrus has very bad chemical burns over her entire torso, so bad, that she must remove her armor untill she tends to them. Odin is not badly wounded by the spider's venom, but the fall appears to have disloacated his shoulder and badly briused or cracked several ribs, and broken a thumb.
She helps him to a sitting position, and he utters no whimper or any indication of discomfort beyond some shallow breathing. That was quite the nasty tumble there mate... she comments as she draws a new wand from her wrist, and begins mumbling a keyword

Immediatly, the pain in his chest lessens, and his thumb mends. THat's going to have to tide you over for a bit lad. Can't spend it all on a tough guy like you. She then turns the wand on herself, and repeats the process.

AHHH! syrus hollers and drops the wand as though scalded. Rubbing her wrist in a pained and rueful fashion, she comments Looks like I can't help anymore if I wanted to there lad. Right then, let's get to the top of this thing, and set the light on. I've already destryed the nest with that shot from earlier, and I doubt the spiders would have tolerated roomies, so I bet we're in the clear here. Then we can join the others, and get some strength and protection in our numbers.

Syrus

Syrus takes a closer look at Tau Pei. Whoa there mate. She says as Tau Pei nearly slices his hand off putting his sword away.
I don't recon your going to do well in any kind of fight for a few days at the least. It is obvious that the douty fighter, while sound of mind, and mostly whole of flesh, has major equibrium issues. His dizzyness high, and he seems prone to bouts of vertigo.
I really don't think climbing these stairs is very good idea for you. We wouldn't want you to fall when you neared to top now would we. She pulls out her pipe. I don't think your life is in danger form this poison, and this won't take long. Would you like a to wait and have a smoke to steady your nerves? or are you going to risk the stairs. I won't stop you, if you're determined. I myself am intending to take it somewhat slowly....

[DoomCup]

Tau Pei

I'd rather not be a liability. I'll wait down here until things stop spinning. And as much as I appreciate the gesture, I don't smoke. Tries to clumsily sit down against a wall, nearly breaking his neck doing so. Pity the cleric couldn't stick around... oh well, I prefer to take care of my own self anyway... With much careful maneuvering, he attempts to drink from a small vial.

He begins a slow march up te stairs careful not to slip.

[Dragoon 6]

Odin and Syrus make thier way up the stairs with care, and after about two minutes reach the pull down ladder at the top of the stairs. After pullign on the rope, the pair assend the ladder into the toorential rain and blustering wind.

WE SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL. IT WOULD NOT DO BE BLOWN OFF OF A 120 FT.

C'MON! she waves at Odin to hurry.

Lefting the alchemical torch high, she finds that the lighthouse room is merely a medium sized glass case surrounding an exceptionally large torch with a mirror on one side.
