You quickly grasp why this is the case: hanging from the threads around her, you spy what can only be described as… Furry lumps, or tubes, shaggy caterpillar-things clinging to swaying strands of fabric. Still others cling to her great, grub-like frame, and she clutches one to her chest with unmistakable protectiveness. You count nine of the hairy things.
Nine eggs, hatched. Nine sons.
You hear the hound fast approaching on your heels, cruel claws scraping the stone for purchase as it bays for your blood. Both Glowie and the troll before her are distracted with their personal battle for the lives of your offspring. You have the element of surprise, but not for long, and if you squander it you will be flanked by your foes.
What will you do?
>Cast <Dazzle> to blind and disorient the troll, and draw your blade to stand between it and your family[specify which sword(s) or daggers you wield]
>Cast <Shadow> to dark the space, and usher Glowie and the offspring to safety while you handle the demon and troll>Assume <Dragonshape>, and join this clash of titans>Draw your bow and loose an arrow with <Guidance>, to slay the troll or draw it out>[UNLOCKED] Solve one problem with another—when the hound leaps for you, duck, and allow it to crash into the troll and stun them both>Write-inIn deference to my earlier error, your primary roll for the next phase of this combat will have its difficulty reduced by 5, and will crit on a 15 or higher.
