The Gith's attack firmly dents the ettercap's armor once more, but again there is no real damage done.

Left with a moment to breath on its own, the Ettercap that's a bit more heavily encrusted in webbing spits up another ball of webbing, which explodes over the entire eastern side of the room. Adis is the only one able to avoid getting stuck in the mire of webs. One of the fires does smoulder out due to the explosion of webs, thankfully.

After scuttling away from the party, the ettercap decides to fix Adis' ability to move with yet another spot of webbing.

Graven took out a vial of potion and poured it over his damage. Then, as his body mended, he sighed and tugged at the web holding him, removing it. Finally the construct remained on watch for enemies coming close.

With nowhere left to dodge, Adis struggled to remove the webs stuck to his robes. Unfortunately the more he struggled the more he got tangled up.

The very moment she freed herself of the webs, the ettercaps spat his weave again. Karan recoiled, but did not manage to dodge, once again becoming restrained by the spider's silk. Only for a brief moment, though. Seconds later, she once again burst out of the webs.

Norian fires off a FoP, and then attempts to free himself from the web. He succeeds. He has stayed silent, because he is deep in thought about something, very deep. What that something is will probably be explored later.

Most of the party is able to pull their way free from the webs, and Norian even manages to make the ettercap squeal (grunt? hiss? it's hard to tell) in pain as the fire laps along the webs spreading outwards.

Graven's sword slashes down hard against the ettercap that steps near him, but his swing gets tangled in the mass of webs. On the plus side, the ettercap is no more successful at hurting the warforged.

"These webs are becoming bothersome," Inatai remarked as he once more journeyed through the shadows, appearing behind the nearby Ettercap to strike it a blow while the Warforged distracted it.

Inatai's attacks gain tremendous amounts of power due to all the shadows on these creatures, but they still don't manage to find their mark.

The ettercap in the rear makes a small movement and a bulge of webbing slaps against Inatai's face, constricting his movement once more. With what sounds like an angry gurgle, the creature speeds forward and slaps his side against the Gith. It's only as the spidery creature pulls away that you can see the stinger.

Seeing the monster before him is distracted, warforged too a good, solid swing at it, before moving away from between burning webs.

  After a few moments of struggling, Adis managed to get at least his arms free. Focusing on the space between the remaining Ettercaps, he evoked another swarm of invisible attackers to distract them. The Ettercaps however did not seem to be phased by the illusion. With nothing more to do, Adis tried to desperately free himself before the fire reached him, but it was to no avail.

Finally free from bothersome webs, Karan moved through silk to between the ettercaps. Despite raging, she was surprisingly calm and quite, unlike her- doubtlessly, it was due to the fact she was not even scratched yet. Once there, she swung at the already bleeding (thankfully, the smell of burnt webs overwhelmed the dreaded stench of blood that had the unfortunate quality of enraging her) creature. To her own surprise, the weapon did not become entangled in webs again, and struck hard against the creature's carapace, cracking it, finally killing it for good.

"And that, Inatai, is why I have set them on fire." Norian commented. He didn't have a fear of spiders or anything like his brother seemed to with zombies, but he too had found the webbing annoying, and in a fit of tactical uncertainty, had decided to burn it. It was a hard decision to make,but he made it, and would stand brave in the face of the fire he had made...so as to not show regret at a possible tactical blunder of which may take down some of his comrades.

Norian sees a etter go down, and knows that the battle is almost over, so he better get on helping with what he can, having expended his healing for now. So he brings a Finger of Pelor down on the last ettercap.Sadly, he missed

Karan adds another tally to her kill list, and the fires spread a bit further along the webbing.

While struggling in the webbing the form of your new companion drops suddenly to the ground. His body shakes violently from the poison in his veins.

The remaining ettercap cries out at the death of its comrades and lobs a bundle of webbing at Graven, holding him fast (yet again). Rushing forward and away from the burning webbing it plunges its stinger into the Warforged, who appears to resist the creature's poison.

- "And that is why settin things on fire is a bad idea!" - Graven shouted looking at unconscious Itanai and wall of flame coming at him - "Karan, give him some healing potion before he dies!"

Warforged's blow was hindered too much by webs to hit the Ettercap, but at least had enough momentum to tear them apart.

  Fire... fire is not good. With a slight panic Adis did the only logical thing, try to put it out. His body was still restrained leaving him with only one option. Chanting as fast as he could Adis cast a Ray of Frost at the webbing while trying to rip himself out one last time.
