OOC: I'm happy to wait whilst we continue the intraparty RP, or we can move on... if we do, the post would look like this...<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">Group</span><br/><br/>As the group moves on from the cavern, it doesn’t seem like the surviving fire-women have any desire to pursue you, not even to recover their lost sister gently digesting amidst Phylia’s flesh. By the end of the day, she’s been fully and completely dispersed, the only remains of her a little reddish-orange tinge on the slime’s flesh. With her guidance, you more easily avoid some of the more annoying dangers of the underdark, and even forage a few mushrooms for a delicious, tasty meal.<br/><br/>After a good rest, you continue on down a gentle, winding slope. Ahead, the passage opens into a wide cavern. Stalactites hang from the ceiling, and a smaller number of thick stalagmites thrust up from the floor. Across the cave, passages lead on into the darkness.<br/><br/>Perception DC20:<div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">You hear the telltale sound of heavy armour rattling against a moving body.</div></div></div><br/><br/>OOC: You have time to take any preparatory actions you wish to take. If you choose to enter the cavern...<br/><br/>As you enter, three drow in plate armour also stride into the cavern from the northern entrance. Their step is arrogant, and their faces bright with a cruel glee.<br/><br/>Sense Motive DC20, Knowledge (religion, planes) DC20: Some chaotic taint beyond that usual for mere drow lies upon them. A vaguely humaniod figure, sensual in its ragged robes, enters behind them. To the south-east, a dridder, a drow’s torso atop a black spider’s body, rises to its eight feet. It hisses at you, scuttling west to place you between it and the newcomers. Behind and around it, making what use of the cover they can, crouch the shadowy forms of drow sniper-assassins.
