I'm pleased to announce that there is now slightly more sandbox available, stretching to a mighty THREE options for next session.
- Reclaim the Hookah. Shrub Nigeria's favourite hookah has been stolen by insectoid Iounians, and if you get it back you'll unlock access to his dank weed stash.
- Raid the Chocolate Factory. Shrub Nigeria wants to make some edibles, and the chick who runs the chocolate factory won't sell to him any more. Find out how she does it so he can homebrew his own chocolate confections!
- Return to the Anomalous Subsurface Environment. The megadungeon remains open, explorable, and lucrative!
See you tonight!

Events:
--- Potion Seller
- In Shrub Nigeria’s house, Jeremy Wizard acquires some potions from Shrub’s potion stash for a small fee. They seem like good ones!
- Others tool up a bit using the mysterious power of feeding Shrub Nigeria money for items, then the group set off back to the dungeon…
--- Close Encounters
- They walk through the first level unhindered, since the robots are on-side now, and delve down into the depths once more.
- Exploring on, they find a room with some sort of pressure plate trap. Before they can investigate much further, there is a sound from back the way they came! Big-eyed grey-skinned aliens are crawling towards them!
- Beepbox hears them trash-talking the party as they form weapons from their very flesh! It seems that their skin is soft and goopy and can form into multiple things!
- During the course of the battle, one of the aliens up the back with a massive head reforms a puddle of dead alien goop into an alien again. Nasty!
- The aliens eventually break ranks and flee, but not before Red and Wormwood can grab one of them! It laughs as it’s consumed by Wormwood’s demonic form. In its last thoughts, Wormwood hears that it exists to serve the Mother which is everywhere. Wormwood seizes the ability to bleed slimes, or turn slime into a living slime.

--- Dwarf Faces
- The pressure plate room is investigated with Red using the door into the room as a shield. Success!
- They head into another room which has a few mounds of faeces. Lovely.
- Exploring further, they find a room with a bunch of skeletons lying around and pillar with Dwarf faces and a lever on each side. Pulled simultaneously, the levers retract and the faces open to reveal a dwarven corpse with silver teeth! Wormwood takes the teeth and puts them in his mouth.
- Slimy gunk infests the bones and snakes towards Beepbox, who used a drone to pull a lever rather than use his own hand! The fool! He shrieks and runs back into the face room!
- Wormwood spits a jelly being to block the slimy skeletons and the party runs further into the dungeon!

--- Leech Dogs
- Listening at a door, they hear grinding sounds within. When they open the door they see horrible six-legged dog monsters with leech-like skin and flowering demogorgon-esque faces feasting on piles of dead grey alien goop!
- The first couple of dogs are shot in a hail of plasma fire, and Red stands forth at the entrance to the room to hold off the rest! Unfortunately these things are fast, and they bite and grind and disarm her so many times that her trousers fall down!

- Some drastic die rolls later, including lots of damage for poor Red, and the surviving dogs run away.
- They quickly search around and find a silver necklace, an arcane bath-bomb, and pocketfuls of valuable knick-knacks.
