\nWe exit the lift and move westward, toward the area where the robed figures vaporized most of the party. There’s supposed to be a 30 foot long passage leading to a chamber. Instead, we walk for 200 feet and apparently make no progress. Another dastardly illusion!

<\/a>\nSadly, I do not have a log of the misadventures that follow. You’ll just have to imagine witty dialogue for all the thing we tried. Those include using the illusion-detecting spectacles, walking together as a group, walking individually, figuring out what we can throw down the neverending hall, and searching repeatedly for a mechanism to control the floor.<\/p>\n
Our rogue wasn’t with us, so the searching went slowly, but we finally did find some buttons on the wall. Now you’ll have to imagine witty dialogue as one of us presses the buttons in different combination while the rest of us walk to and from the group, seeing whether the rest of the group gets closer or recedes. Holy moly, it was weird. It was like watching a child try to drive a car by randomly pushing pedals and spinning the wheel. It has no idea what it’s doing, but that doesn’t make it any less deadly.<\/p>\n
Miraculously we get the floor straightened out. Everybody who has walked away to try to figure out what’s going on begins to reassemble. I’m beginning to think that nothing down here is real, but by gum, we’ve figured this out, at least. We’re feeling victorious! All of a sudden…<\/p>\n
GM Vaschon: <\/b>The ceiling above opens and a spider descends.<\/i> We all roll badly for initiative. The next round, the spider gets the first attack.<\/p>\n GM Vaschon: <\/b>Spider, Veracity, Ale, Torkal, Klyx, Bentein, Palin Everybody gets a hit in on it. Then it’s my turn.<\/p>\n
\nAleanghi: <\/b><\/font>‘Oh dear.
\nGM Vaschon: <\/b>The spider appears somewhat translucent.<\/i>
\nPalin: <\/b><\/font>I disbelieve!
\nTorkal: <\/b><\/font>SEEMS LEGIT
\nTorkal: <\/b><\/font>Oh. A phase spider.<\/a> I hope it does something awesome like teleport Bentein into a wall.
\nVeracity: <\/b><\/font>Veracity leaps to one side with alacrity, yelping, “What the hell is THAT!”
\nTorkal: <\/b><\/font>Torkal gets his charge on!
\nGM Vaschon rolled 1 6-sided die: 2<\/i>
\nPalin: <\/b><\/font>Palin does not believe that there is a spider there.
\nPalin: <\/b><\/font>I’ll believe it when someone gets eaten.
\nGM Vaschon: <\/b>The phase spider lunges at Palin.<\/i>
\nGM Vaschon rolled 1 20-sided die: 17<\/i>
\nPalin: <\/b><\/font>CRAP!
\nGM Vaschon: <\/b>It hits<\/i>
\nPalin: <\/b><\/font>Palin believes! Palin believes!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nRound 1: Spider decides to attack Palin again for non belief!<\/i>
\nGM Vaschon: <\/b>Believe in me now! It lunges and misses.<\/i>
\nVeracity: <\/b><\/font>Oh great, a touchy spider \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n
