Greasy, grimy, gopher guts...

The party returns to the Taboo Temple after taking refuge in the jungle to recoperate. Nesta spots a skinwalker guard inside the entrance that the party used the last time. Daria goes invisible and gets inside the entrance to find two more skinwalkers behind the hewn doors. Dropping a silenced stone, Daria move in a gives the ready signal by stabbing a skinwalker. The party allows Daria time to work, before moving in to the entrance to attack.

A skinwalker acolyte appears in time to greet Ortho, and Ortho starts the exchange. The temple defenders are further reinforced by a troop of armored monkeys. The party dispatches their foes after a bit of slugging it out. Daria and Rudy both splatter the guts of their opponents onto the ancient stone walls. The party makes its way into the temple and finds a room with a blood trail leading down to a large watery room.

Never missing a chance to bathe in brackish, putrid water, Rudy goes for a swim and finds three large Hezrou demons. In the 8-foot deep water, the party is assaulted by blasphemy, unholy bight, and the retched stench of the abyss. As the demons begin moving away, Hjalmgerder blasts one into pasty residue. The last demon teleports away before Rudy and Vin can close for the kill.

  1. I can't find violet fungus venom in the DMG. Is that in the Dungeon Magazine?

  2. When Hjalmgerdr blasted that demon, what was the new record set for most damage from a single attack?
