The scouts move forward down the hall and soon run into giant spider webs. As you move down they become thicker, ancient bodies of giant rats, skeletons and all sorts husks fill some of the webs..now mumifide. Do you wish to continue in this direction.

Subdolus turns to Tiberious, "Perhaps we should burn the webs before we proceed."

The group continues down the hall burning webs with torches and oil. Going 200 feet you find 100s of husks from small bats to oger sized. You find 13 humanoids in all (7 human, 2 oger, the rest your not sure). A quick search reveals, 3 rings (non magical worth 130, 200 and 500 GPs) and 550 GPs in coinage. You also find many weapons and suites of armor but all are rusted and cruded up. Breaking threw a final web you enter into a room vast in size 100 x 300 with columns spaced every 30 feet and a gold thrown covered in emeralds at its end. Spanning between columns are vast spider webs 6 in all. These webs appear normal at first until the group moves in and more light fills the room. Suddenly the webs begin to shimmer brightly like rainbows in spectacular colors a wonderful spectacle to behold.
All must make their saves vs. 6 hypno spiders webs.
Cadellin, Tiberious, Calhagan and Ermanaric save, the rest of the group fail and start walking toward different webs... mesmerized. They will each reach a webs in 1-2 rounds. Dropping from above the group from a spinner (an immediate threat) is a hypno spider that had above where you entered (it seems to be dropping on Fletcher, who's prone).
group 6, monsters 3, You have initiative, what actions do you take?

Tiberious will throw both of his hand axes (magic) at the hypno-spider that is attacking Fletcher.
(The monk moves away as he throws, wanting to avoid the sider's attack by creating distance.)

OOC: Nah, I think Cal grabbed both of those (correct me if I'm wrong). Cal only took one of the two potions.

OOC: OK then I'll assume Tiberious got both the bag of holding and the extra healing potion (so make sure to write that stuff down). If someone else has another idea speak up.
The combined 2 hits from Tiberious's axes, a hit by Cal and solvo of magic missiles kills the one landing ontop of Fletcher. However, the mesmorized ranger still heads to one of the nearer webs as fast as he can manage. To keep the game moving I'm going to assume Ermanaric tackles the person closest to an actual web (that would be Subdolus in the front). He manages to grab the half elf and pin him. He then pulls him back away from the giant spider moving in for its kill. Monstrers can't counter out of range this round.
Initiative: monster 5, group 3. Zargon, Sog and Fletcher all become entangled in glittering webs, seemingly unaware of the dangers around them. Subdolus tries to free himself but the fighters too strong and ties his arms and legs before throwing him to the ground.
Of those held Fletcher and Sog are bitten (for 4 and 5 damage). Sog shakes off the poison but Fletcher roles a 3 and is poisoned to death. The creature then moves into feast.
In the mean time Zargon has a giant spider (perhaps the fattest and largest) heading toward him dropping down in a somewhat lathargic fashion studying his mezmorized trapped prey.
At the same time 4 spiders move to the ground coming from different directions and start heading over to the main group, hungry. while the one on Fletcher begins to suck him dry.
(In summary: Fletcher is dead, Sog and Zargon are trapped)

Cadellin uses his slow such that it affects the largest possible number of hypno-spiders without touching a player character who's made their save. (It's okay to slow Sogothan, for example, but not Tiberious.)

Calhagn attacks the fat, lethargic spider. Only, of course, if he can do so w/o getting himself entangled.

Cal easily avoids stepping into glowing webs and moves within range, thrusting black sword into the monsterous spider which also is hit with the electrical attack, this causes a high pitch squeek from the thing, and its legs to curl frantically. It suddenly moves more quickly and changes its attention to Cal.
Cadellin casts his slow spell, but because of the various angles is only able to capture 2 spiders within its range. Luckily these both seem to greatly reduce in speed.
Tiberious throws his axes at the spider on Fletcher (who is quickly dragging him upward into its webbing). Both miss (with a 2, 4 ). Ermanaric attacks the two charging the main group (blocking their approach to the wizard). He manages to hit one cutting off several legs.
Initiative: monsters 6, group 1. Sog awakens from his hypnotic state completely entangled within the spiders webbing. It pulls him upward 10 feet while biting again. This time inflicting 5 pts damage, luckily the cleric again manages to save vs. death poison. Sogathan's struggling seems to slow the progress of the spider, which is quickly heading toward a glistening tube or cone of webbing near the center of the web 20 feet up (the room btw is 60 feet high)
One of the spiders on Erm scrambels around the fighter and heads straight toward Tiberious. The nimble monk has no place to run as the beast lunges and bites with its fangs deep into his stomach for 8 pts damage, He pulls it free before the poison can effect him ( saves with a 19! ). The one on Fletcher manages to pull him inside what appears to be a tube of webbing. You loose site of him and the spider which goes in to feast. (this doesn't look good for the ranger) The tube is 20 feet up and in the center of its web. It reminds you of the sort of thing normal spiders sometimes build for their young!
Ermanaric manages to block the spiders attack on him with a loud scrape. The two slowed move in toward the battle (both approaching Ermanaric) and can attack next round.
Cal is bit by the huge one, and takes 7 pts damage. He manages to shake off teh poison however, with a 14 save.
Group counter.

Cadellin fires four magic missiles at the spider dragging Sogothan (these are cast as a spell, not fired from his wand).
