Limbo

Limbo's many eyes moved throughout the battlefield as its hatchlings did the work for it, biting at various players and making their lives a living hell. That was until it caught glimpse of the first man it had tangled in its web's, the ginger haired rapier user. The arachnid seemed to laugh at the pitiful attempts of the ginger as he rubbed at his eyes to try and remove all of the webbing. However, Limbo was shocked to see that he still had fighting spirit in him as he rushed forward at high speeds. Before Limbo knew it, it felt a sharp pain in its gut as it was slightly knocked backwards, soon after being met by a barrage of attacks. Limbo let out a loud screech after Jomei's onslaught had finished, needing now to recuperate. That was until it felt the constricting grip of chains around its neck. Its eyes glared over at the one who held it at bay, Zandra. With a powerful pull, Limbo found itself tumbling forward towards the noirette, a feeble attempt to flip the large spider. However, Zandra finished her move by pulling in the opposite direction as well. The powerful whiplash from being pulling in different directions was too much. As the chains fell from Limbo's body, it let out a loud screech that seemed to pierce the very heavens. Its eight legs spear out to the sides as it collapsed to the floor before erupting into thousands of tiny crystals. 

Zandra receives Last Hit reward:
<<Limbo's Fang>>: (T2 Demonic Dagger) 2xEnvenom, 2xBlight

A dagger that resembles one of Limbo's fangs. It has a black blade with a green motif on both sides of the sharp edge, making it look like it was dipped in venom.

Limbo watched as the players continued to make mincemeat of its precious children. This intolerance and injustice would not stand. No. Spiders had to eat. It was what spiders did and these players were nothing but particularly succulent insects. Fangs glistening, the gigantic spider darted forward with far greater agility than seemed possible and pounced on Heathcliff once again, sinking its fangs into the top of his skull, even as the man's armor stung back with its thorns. As Limbo delivered another savage bite to Heathcliff the massive spider fired off another strand of webbing that caught Calrex square in the chest.

While Limbo was thus occupied, the spiderlings retreated from their assault to regroup and sally forth once more. Their numbers were depleted, but they were far from eliminated. Two of the spiderlings peeled off and pounced on the red-headed man that seemed to be in charge of calling the shots for the team of players. The spiders pounced on Mack, causing the hefty warrior to drop his axe as he groped around to try and remove them. Two more of the spiders made a beeline for Macradon, slamming into the tank's chest in an effort to take him to the ground. The last spiderling, the tail-end charlie, went on the offensive against Zandra once more, leaping on the woman's back and delivering a savage bite to the back of her head.

Battle Order

Limbo glared over the players from it's high ground above the battlefield. It watched as Mack, Heathcliff, and Takao tore through it's small army of hatchlings. The very sight of this infuriated and enraged limbo like no other, repelling down from it's high ground. Choosing the closest of the three, Limbo sunk its teeth deeply into the thick armour of the iron clad swordsman <<Heathcliff>>, getting deep enough to inject its venom into him. With a quick twist of its own neck, Limbo sent the man tumbling backwards as if he tossed a piece of trash. Limbo stood on its hind legs and aimed its abdomen at Ariel before covering whatever parts of her were left exposed with it's <<Silver String Shot>>, further complicating her sticky situation. 

Due to the large numbers lost from the assault by the trio, the first group of hatchlings split up. The first three followed in Limbos footsteps and attacked the man known as Heathcliff while he was still down, however once they bit into his armour they suffered the damage from his thorns. The dog piled bunch began to feast on the helpless Ariel, digging their fangs past the webbing however struggling through her armour. The three that split up from the main group attempted to rush at Zandra, closing in on her swiftly before pouncing at her and latching on while digging their fangs deep into her. Limbo let out an intimidating screech as it's HP slowly rose once again, letting all the players know that this was not over.

From the ceiling above, Limbo chittered musically as her children swarmed the players below. Seeing them outnumbered two to one gave the arachnid a primitive sense of pride... and hunger. She watched as the swarm split off to attack those players which threatened her family most. Limbo hissed as one of her babies burst into shards, but another emerged from the wall to join the pack. As she watched, one such player was completely swarmed by her babies. As <<Hatchlings>> <<swarmed>> onto Ariel, Limbo readied her abdomen and launched another sticky salvo onto the girl. It slammed into her with enough force to stun. Wisps of webbing splashed onto Macradon and Manta, restricting their ability to move with finesse (( Lose all ACC for 2 rotations )).

As Limbo's web drenched Ariel, her <<Hatchlings>> began to slide free from it and weave it tighter onto Ariel. She would be <<stunned>> for some time while Limbo's Hatchlings prepped her for dinner. Though as tight as they clung to Ariel's body, any attempt to loose the <<Hatchlings>> from her would surely also damage the girl beneath ((See Spoiler)).

Meanwhile, a pack of spiderlings stabbed, bit, and lashed out at Calrex, Heathcliff, and Zandra. The first two resiliently withstood the onslaught thanks to thick armor. Thick armor which unleashed shrill screams from the <<Hatchlings>> as they struck and Limbo watched her babies' health tick down from <<thorn>> damage. Zandra was less fortunate. Unlike her larger counterparts, she didn't return any damage to Limbo's babies. Meanwhile, her own HP ticked down from an unknown <<poison>> but recovered substantially thanks to her spider-like <<healing>> ((See Spoiler)).

Battle Order:

Limbo howled as the punishment continued. Giant curved blades, and rapiers ravaged its thick, black carapace. HP bars dropped off like leaves in the wind until the final bar dipped into the red. As if triggered with some demonic possession, Limbo's eight eyes illuminated a piercing crimson red in the dark cavern. The chittering and scratching climaxed to a roar and then... fell silent.

The walls, dark and covered with spindled web, began to glow. Similar piercing dots of red light started as eight, then sixteen, and as if sparked by a chain reaction, a total of nearly two hundred crimson lights lined the chamber wall.

Limbo shrieked loud enough to deter the players from their relentless onslaught. Raising its abdomen skyward, Limbo released a thick, viscous strand of web. With a hiss and a thud, it hit something too high to see in the darkness and without hesitation, Limbo began to ascend. As it did, the walls came alive and hundreds of spider legs gnashed and tore through the webbing. From all around them emerged <<smaller copies of Limbo>>, each the size of the players themselves. They poured onto the boss room floor and skittered over one another haphazardly. Human sized bundles of web fell free from the walls and landed, exposing the blood drained faces of the departed.

Ascended out of sight and free from harm, Limbo unleashed a volley of <<Silver Web>>  from the darkness. Thanks to the lingering effects of <<alcohol>> and the <<thin webbing>> scattered about the room, it slammed into Jomei with intense ferocity, <<stunning>> him as the thick goo poured over his body. Wisps of adhesive, cable-like silver strands splashed off Jomei and wrapped around Manta and Zandra. No matter their struggle, the webbing stuck like glue, limiting their mobility and ability to act with finesse (ACC is now 0 for all three). From its safety, Limbo's barely visible HP bar fell by a tick thanks to a venom not of its own. However, its HP bar quickly rebounded from the damage and then some.

The battle was far from over.

Battle Order:

The massive spider shrieked with each fierce blow. The dull thud of metal against chitin resounded through the room as gaping red wounds opened on its body. Limbo's eyes focused on its prey as the first of many made their advances. Before it could return in kind, the crippling blow of the redhead's axe buckled Limbo's legs. The massive weight of its torso thudded to the sticky, webbed floor. Unable to retaliate, the spider beast focused its efforts on regaining mobility.

As it struggled, more blades bit into its body and Limbo shrieked louder. As if alive, the walls began to stir and a chatter of unknown origin began to grow in volume. The ground they stood upon began to tremble and Limbo began to rise. Down but not out, the massive spider prepared for retaliation.  One whole bar of its HP shrank away into nothing with a sizable chunk of the second bleeding away with each breath.

Large doors creak open with a groan. The room is black as the dead of night, softly illuminated by the light flooding in from the doors. Silhouettes of the players stretch along the barren, matte floor. Light from the outside catches on several invisible lines, threads of unknown make or origin. They glisten in the faint breeze, lining the floors, the walls, and hanging loosely from the ceiling far above. As the light leaks to the far wall, something decrepit twitches and extends eight long appendages. Patches of faintly glowing green light begins to bleed through the mysterious webbing, giving sight to to room and the human sized bundles of silver web haphazardly woven about the perimeter. From the shadows, Limbo clambers forward to greet the players and the door shuts behind them. His form is black and yields little detail in the poorly lit room, yet it can be guaranteed that eight eyes focus on the raid party before it. Two dripping fangs, the size of a player's forearm, extend and retract as the massive spider lets loose a shriek. It's body easily the size of a carriage and legs thick as tree trunks, Limbo's name appears with several green bars beneath it. Combat has begun.
