D&D 5E Storm King's Thunder

FitzTheRuke · Jan 16, 2018

Aremus calls after the leader, "Now where do you think you're going?" and cuts between some pews to catch him, willing the man to turn and fight. As he reaches the cretin, he lashes out with his rapier.

OOC:

Action - [roll0] for [roll1] damage.
Bonus Action - Compelled Duel - Concentration - A creature (the leader) you can see within 30 feet must make a Wisdom Save (dc14). On a fail, for 1 minute, the creature has disadvantage on attack rolls against creatures other than you, and must pass another Wisdom Save to move to a space more than 30 feet away from you. The spell ends if you attack any other creature, or cast a spell that targets a hostile creature other than the target, if a creature friendly to you damages the target or casts a harmful spell on it, or if you end your turn more than 30 feet away from the target.

Round 2

OOC:

Oh! Nice use of Compelled Duel! I never thought of it that way!

With Aremus handling the leader, Dren refocused on the cultists, pounding them into submission.

OOC:

He’ll try and focus the most damaged, and if one attack downs him, the others will go to the other cultist. If both go down, he’ll use his movement to head toward the leader and use any remaining attacks.

Fistan
Cloud temple, Afternoon

As the chaos at the start of the battle starts to resolve Fistan notices on of their enemy fleeing, he moves to pursue ready to unleash his arcane fire again but stops when Aremus calls out the leader. Fistan remains close in case his assistance is required, but chooses on of the remaining cultists in the center of the room as a target.

Ordrar follows the leader, but doesn't run all out. Instead he comes as close as he can and launches trio of magic missiles after him. Small bolts weave among the benches unerringly striking at him.

[sblock=If he still stands]
"Another step and you die. Surrender, talk and live!"

Aremus: Your rapier slices at the cultist, but he managed to overpower your magic
Wisdom Saving Throws: 1D20+1 = [13]+1 = 14

Tranio: One beam misses, but the other attack is a direct hit and a cultist drops dead.

Bethany: With a clean swing you behead the last remaining cult thug.

Cult Leader: Seeing his forces wiped out, the cowled man would toss his scimitar to the ground and raise his hands in the air. The disgust very evident on his face.

FitzTheRuke · Jan 19, 2018

"Ah, so you are the coward I expected you to be!" Aremus sneered at the Cult Leader when he had, in fact, expected a fearsome opponent. "Tell us where we can find the ruler of this castle, or barring that, his steward."

Neurotic · Jan 19, 2018

"I don't care, we'll find them killed. Or not." Ordrar slowly advances on the cultist, slapping the warhammer in the open pala "Convince me you didn't do any damage to Nightstone. I'll even forgive you not warning them of the attack. Or spill what you know of your masters plan. Before I reach you or your brain, such as it is,will see the sun."

Ooc: half move toward the cultist

seriousmoonlight · Jan 20, 2018

"I had nothing to do with the attack on Nightstone," The cultist frantically claims, growing visibly more nervous as Ordrar approaches with the warhammer. " You'll never find the Majordomo on your own," he says to Aremus. "There is a third hidden structure in the clouds. I can lead you to them."
