If Spot or Listen Succeeded: (Simon, Selina, Dog, Tomeal)

You've been focused on the creatures to the North East who have been hiding in the treetops, using the large leaves and branches to cover themselves from sight.  Then something out of the corner of your eye catches [Selina remarkably also hears a shuffling sound] your attention from the south [H-12].  When you glance in that direction you notice the heavy foliage rustling back and forth like there was something inside... you guess, something very large!

---

Selina, Dog and Tomeal suddenly feel tingling between their ears that dances back and forth in a thin band across the top of their heads.

[Selina, Dog, and Tomeal must make Will Saves.  This save will not affect your next action.]

Nang points the wand at his brother and reads the magic word.  The wand flashes and as it's magic takes effect, Nang lets out a scream that's abruptly cut off.  Ning looks on in horror as his brother's reptilian body suddenly twists and shrinks until all that's left is what appears to be a human hand with a whip-like tail thrashing about.

[OoC1: But the wand's magic works normally on Ning.  He gains +5 on his level checks against the torque.  Too bad Nang didn't use the wand on himself first.    ]

[OoC2:  It's now Selina, Dog, Tomeal, and Betimi's Turns]

[OoC3: Once the first group have gone, Simon and Ning may act.]
