Dungeon 14 Turn 35
————
The party ignores the remaining miner and descends to combat the tamer and tyrant. Ricki and Daisy are able to defeat the kobold, while Macadamia and the flytrap slay the tyrant lizard. However, in protecting his allies, Kamau takes a total of 5 unblockable damage, despite Botanya’s pollen reducing the enemies’ efficacy.
Another tyrant fang drops, as well as a death robe. Macadamia picks up the robe, but there is no room to take the fang at this time.
The tyrant lizard’s pitiful death rattle echoes down the hallways of the dungeon…

I’m thinking we should move away from that body, fast owo;;
The last line worries me as well. “pitiful”? maybe we should be somehow reuniting them with momma. But Momma’s list of drops says “Tyrant blade”. That is something that sounds nasty enough to be useful in end game.
Plan: clean up
Mac: drop some rope when the tyrant was. Move up and attack miner.
Kamau: drop silver dodge rings and go loot chest
Ricki: case one of the holy tamers from below
Botania: debuff the miner and wait.
Will Mama Dino bust the left side of the floor after hearing baby die?
I don’t think so. The sound was made, and there won’t be more sounds from this location. But we can’t exclude the possibility that the King has -very- good memory and will simply come&jump to wherever the sound was done last time.
We know that Daddy was killed for attacking a baby. I’m guessing that if Mommy sees a dead baby (or maybe even just if she hears a death rattle) she’ll enter an enraged state.
If we’ve been tracking Mama’s movements right she should be more than 3 spaces away right now so we should be safe, but still we should probably specify everyone moves off of that platform.
She should right now be in the bottom right room. Which means she can reach the room directly underneath this one. She could then be able to use her scrub to attack upwards. It is probably best that we move.
Oh no not the scrub!
I wouldn’t drop the rope.. not there. It’s a critical resource. Anywhere but not there. Ignore the harmless kobold and drop it on the left side of the middle level if you must.
Assuming we have now a very interesting moment “Will Momma arrive and wreck the floor?” how about we spend next a turn or two on scanning? Defender kobold in the right room probably doesn’t have a horn. But those three yellow guys here IMHO have high chances of having one.
Let’s “case” them, or at least some of them.
Also, they didn’t rush towards us to help the miners below. Do they see in the dark? Maybe if we hid the torch in inventory, room would go dark, and we could pass by them to the upper level unbothered? They stay relatively far from the ladder.
Stay still, wait for the big guy to show up and kill it.
Plan: not get eaten.
Ricki: drop a thieves tool set, grab the tyrant fang,climb to the upper level where the miners and the ringsmiffer are. Point out the floor trap to everyone.
Kamau: interpose using the shield, climb to the uppermost level.
Mac: climb to uppermost level, throw shocktail at a miner.
Botanya: climb to uppermost level, smell good.
Daisy and flytrap: follow your tutors, attack a miner diffrent from the one Mac attacks.
I’m afraid King will jump really, really high if/when she gets here next turn. I’m alsonafraid we might need the tyrant fangs to create a weapon that kills King, this is why Ricki is picking it up.
Honestly, was going to post a turn just like this for the next turn but I like doing it now as an abundance of caution.
Please specify Kamau wields the Corona for this, just in case those holy tamers take pot shots at us.
Done.
