The Void Hunters (Patreon)

The creatures get the jump on you and your party. The fight that breaks out is fast-paced and brutal. These creatures are brutal and unrelenting fighters. Worse, those hits your score on them produce a kind of resin which hardens quickly, gumming up sword arms and hands.

You start to feel the fight turning in their favour as some of your party become completely encased in the resin, until a burst of flame from behind you sends them fleeing back into the Forrest.
