That sounds like a really lousy place to be in, have David summon a familiar to use as a scout and then proceed to follow the most leftmost path. Oh, and have Edud try to sense any metal based traps with his magnokinesis and disable them using that as well.

>>337812
Oh, hey, Solstice!

Apprentices: FIGHT EACH OTHER FOR SOLE CONTROL OVER THE TOADSPHERE. Or examine respective inventories and make sure David has his familiar out, and peek into adjoining rooms.

Examine the current room and its objects. Give the students a pop quiz as to how to escape.

Which sort of familiar spell does he have? Is it intelligent? Can it be re-summoned if it dies?

David: "Yes master Toadsphere"

you see David summon his familiar
it is a small imp like earth elemental made from clay
it is semi intelligent
if it dies part of David dies with it
it can be resummoned but it will take more of the apprentice's life energy

>>337832
you don't know the answer to this pop quiz. as your apprentices clearly lack your brilliance it is unlikely they will eiher

You sense that your apprentices are carrying nothing but four articles of clothing each

>>338078

You order David to have his Familiar explore further

David: "yes master Toadsphere, what direction would you like for him to explore?"

You believe your apprentices are fully aware of how they got here, just as much as you are aware yourself.

Mehra: "Master Toadsphere to you intend to inform us of your escape plan at some point? or are we too far beneath you to be worthy of such privileged information?"

Send the whiney bitch to scout out the northeastern path. Hopefully someone will find something useful.

This is a magic lesson. If they cant make the best use of there abilities under stressful conditions they will never make good wizards.

Edud: "Master Toadsphere, my magnokinesishas had no effect within the room, there must be no metal here"

Goldfist:"aye, and likely nothing else of worth either I'll bet, I've tried to climb the ramp but it's far too steep

Looks like a place that demands cooperation and stuff. Ask Edud to give Goldfist a boost up to the next level, then he should be able to grab Edud's hand and help him get up there and they can repeat it to reach the final one.

"Balance your anticipated needs against your current resources. All you know at present is you're facing an unknown number of undead, and that you have an unknown number of challenges in the labyrinth remaining.

"You also have my information gathering abilities. If you did not have access to me, your chosen course of action to use the Census spell would unquestionably be correct. As it is, you have a choice.

"Census will give you exact information. I will give you what I can tell, and I may not be completely correct because of the limitations of my senses at these ranges. The spell costs mana. My sensing abilities are at your disposal if you politely request them.

hmmm, perhaps a simple utility spell could work. just make a small flame upon your finger and burn the webs, test it on a different web first.

Edud: Work on sharpening the wooden table leg on the door frame.

Goldfist: Can you disguise as one of the undead?

Don't try fire yet, those robes aren't fire resistant are they?

If Mehra weren't the one stuck in the webs, she could freeze them and you could break them.

"Mehra, get out of the robe and freeze the webs. Edud can then break the web strands off"

Viggo finishes the manatransfer.

Sabbitha checks the spider beast, it has nothing on it save for a single long piece of blue silk clothe, the room is filled with more clothe of the same type.

Mehra moves to the nearby chest and opens it.
Inside the chest are two gold coins a bottle containing a strange liquid and a pointed skewer of some sort.

The skewer would be a better weapon than nothing. The potion might come in handy (though it is best not to drink now), and you might as well take the gold with you.

Take the blue cloth from the spider-being, it can likely be used as rope.

That reeks of trap. It might be the kind of trap that draws unwanted attention, too - an alarm or something which'd be worse for us than just a "kill you" trap. See those spider symbols on the walls, and the webbing? Didn't we run into a spider-person enemy? Better not mess with this room unless we have to.

David tries to use the spear to cut the webs, but the weapon isn't long enough.

you begin moving your physical form closer in case it is required.

Can they see what is in the bottle (a liquid or solid)? If it is a solid, can they uncork (with telekinesis) the bottle to get the item out?

Ah, you're talking about the webs on the flask, gotcha. Well, looks like we can't get it without springing the obvious trap, so we'll either have to have the one dude send in his familiar, or we'll just have to give it up, grab the weapons off the rack, and make our way elsewhere.
