The beast roars loudly as the adventurers start to attack, its different heads lashing about...
Mochius rolls a 13 +0, for a total of 13, succeeding!
Mochius hurls her boomerang at one of the beast's head, bopping it on the nose with her practiced aim. The beast's head wheels around, staring at Mochius. It tries to gesture towards its other two heads to get their attention, but they're focused on some other adventurers.
The head whines a bit, before turning back to Mochius, lashing out in attempts to sweep her off her feet.

Mochius watches with wide eyes as the beast's heads still seem trained on her companions. And they're... They're attacking the beast! They lied to her!
The beast is trying to knock her over and she dives out of it's reach. She has to figure out what to do, but the beast is lashing out at her as well as her party members. She hardly has a second to think.
"Stop! Everyone stop!" Mochius' cries fall on deaf ears. What should she do? Narrowing her eyes, she can see most of the beast's attention is still trained on her party members. She knows she needs to get closer to get everyone's attention. If she could just avoid the beast's wild paws!
Gritting her teeth, she decides to roll Paws. Maybe she could jump up onto the beast's leg as it slashes at her? She could climb up the leg! The heads would have to pay attention to her if she was right under their noses - literally!
Mochius rolls a 15 -3, for a total of 12, succeeding!
Even with all the craziness, Mochius is able to grab onto the beast's leg! It starts swinging again, and Mochius holds on for dear life, swinging to and fro for a moment, before the beast actually takes note of the snailcat clinging to it.
The beast raises its paw to its faces, staring at Mochius, a slight snarl on its lips. Its not attacking though, so Mochius has a chance to do something...
Mochius takes a deep breath and, before she knows it, she finds herself clinging desperately to the beast's paw. It lifts her, looking perplexed and angry. Her party members hesitate, their attacks falling short as they watch in dismay.
Trembling, Mochius straightens as best she can and meets the many gazes of the beast. "We don't need to fight!" She shouts, willing her voice to steady. The beast blinks slowly. "Please! I don't want to hurt you! And my friends probably don't either! We just wanted to go on an adventure and maybe find some treasure!" She realizes how stupid her pleading is, especially because she has no idea if the beast even understands her, but she has to try. "I just wanted to explore..." Her forced bravado is faltering. "I don't want anyone to get hurt. Not you, not my friends."
She takes another deep breath and peers down at her party members, all staring up at her in shock now. "If we leave, no one needs to get hurt. We don't need treasure, right?"
"Yes we do!" A voice calls angrily.
Mochius frowns. Turning her attention back to the beast, she decides to roll Tail. "If we promise to leave you in peace, can we take some treasure home with us? Not too much, just enough to prove we were here?" She asks hesitantly.
As Mochius starts to talk, everyone's eyes are on her...
Mochius rolls a 19 +5, for a total of 24, succeeding!!
The beast eyes Mochius warily, listening to her, though it seems that it doesn't speak the common language, it does seem to comprehend what she's saying. The room is still, and the tension is high, even the other adventurers have stopped, watching Mochius and the beast.
After what seems like a lifetime, the beast slowly nods, and then lowers Mochius down to the floor. It backs up slightly and watches the adventurers start to tentatively grab some treasure. The beast watches carefully, and after a certain point, it steps forward again, and the adventurers take that as their signal to leave.
