Peter takes a deep breath, and then a ball of red energy works its way up
his staff, stopping at the top.  He swings at the spider near him, but misses.
Midnight, however, runs over, dodges a snare, pulls a sword from his cane, and
hits the spider Peter just missed.
     "Kaminari!!!", yells Hachiro as he attacks the spider nearest him, catching
only air with the Wakizashi, but catches the spider with the Katana.  Tarrin,
giggling at the sight of Serroli hanging upside down, six feet in the air,
stabs at the spider in front of him with his hoopak, and grabs the pouch of
rocks at his belt. Serroli attempts to hit the spider below him with his
crossbow, but misses due to the swinging of the rope he is on.

The spider in front of Tarrin deftly grabs the kender with his mandibles,
and then drops him.  Tarrin looks a bit ill for a moment, but the illness
passes.  Hachiro's spider misses, perhaps baffled by the flashing of the
two swords in front of him.  The last spider attempts to bite Midnight, but
instead misses, loses his balance, and falls to the ground.

Peter's staff is still charged, and this time he hits, killing the
spider.  Midnight begins to swing, but seeing that the spider is dead, climbs
on top of it, preparing to cut down Serroli.
     Hachiro hits his spider with the Katana, and Tarrin hits his with the
hoopak again (but misses with the bag of rocks)
     Serroli, meanwhile, attempts to right himself, but fails.

The spider in front of Hachiro, in an attempt to make up for his
comrade's clumsiness, and in a brilliant display of Wakizashi dodging, gives
the Samurai a nasty wound.  The spider in front of Tarrin is not as motivated,
and misses.

Peter runs over to Hachiro, and almost completely heals him, while Hachiro
kills the spider in front of him, and sets off to help Tarrin.  Midnight pulls
down the rope holding Serroli, and tries to cut it.  He misses, however, and
is knocked off balance, falling of the spider.  Tarrin hits the spider in
front of him yet again with the staff (and missing with the bag), and Serroli
still cannot seem to get ahold of the rope and pull himself up.

The spider, seeing himself vastly outnumbered, realizes the fight is
pointless, and runs off into the woods.  The party is now able to cut down
Serroli, and Peter heals Tarrin.  You are still on a path, ahead of you
leading deeper into Loring's Wood, and behind you leading out.

Combat wrapup:
       Hachiro was damaged for 12 pts, 8 were healed
       Tarrin was damaged for 8 pts, all were healed
       Serroli is down 4 spell points
       Peter is down 16 psi points

Psi/spell points and hit points not healed this combat must be recovered
naturally.....i'll let you know when it happens.
