WLD May 10, 2006
Present this week were:
* Cinner - dwarven rogue
* Riamara - loresong faen greenbond
* Ruke - human paladin
The group decided to try and find Madness first. They took a wrong turn and ended up in fluid filled chambers that pulsed like living hearts. The first chamber had black fluid that left Ruke and Riamara paralyzed with despair. Cinner burned out the fluid with a well placed torch. The smell from the black liquid as it chars is one of the most horrible things you’ve ever smelt. It reeks of burning vomit. They found another chamber of red fluid, which Ruke determined was blood. The next chamber dripped yellow, which disturbed Cinner – the color not the ichor. The final chamber pumped a viscous green fluid.
The party went a little further north and went east through a series of shattered doors. Random screams became louder as they went further east. Finally they came to a room that churned nauseatingly, the walls, ceiling, and floor alive with pale, writhing flesh. Here a cluster of fingers, there a bubble of pallid eyes. Occasionally mouths set into the stone…or set in flesh…screech deafeningly. As Cinner tried to sneak into the room, it erupted in a chorus of screams!
Ruke’s holy sword failed to have any additional effects on Madness. Cinner managed to hit it with his crowbars, but didn’t do much damage. Ruke was repeated blinded by Madness’ acid spit. Neither side did much damage, but Madness was slowly gaining the upper hand, when our heroes decided to cut and run. Fortunately, Madness moves rather slowly so they were able to make their escape.
