DM Speaks:
As the group travels to the surface, you run into a gang of Giant Ants trying to take down a Giant Red Chag Beetle. The outcome is uncertain, but the ants just seem to keep coming. The group needs to get past this situation to move higher to the surface.
Throughout the game travel we had giant toads sitting on characters, paladins disallowing exit on the surface, swarms of bugs injuring all and a carrion crawler winding its way to the group in the Underdark caverns. We also encountered a surface gnome when seeing the group was worried about his own life and left without much interaction.
Quite an eventful night!
Linli Speaks:
OK, Bug-a-Boos, we got some ants in our pants. No worry unless we run into a swarming colony of hundreds. But for now, let's keep our heads up and consider this an isolated incident and eliminate these. I know they're feasting on a big reddish chag beetle, but I think we take these out while we have chance at surprise. That's just Leader Linli speaking for 2 votes. Who's with me? Surface here we come!
