CG's Dragon of Icespire Peak [IC]

[gargoyleking]

Sythaeryn had been keeping up with Ulrik pretty well and now he was within range to use his magic, plucking a sprig of mistletoe from his armor, he called out to the Ulrik.

"Be strong friend, we're here to help!"

Then he whips out with his free hand as if cracking a whip, as he does so, a thick thorny vine flungs out from his hand towards the manticore, threatening to drag it closer to the rest of the party.

Spoiler: OOC

Sythaeryn's moved up every turn so far, there's no way he's 90' behind Ulrik.

Moving to get into range (if not already).
Thorn Whip(10 ft pull on hit.): 1d20+4 8 1d6 3

 

[Charwoman Gene]

OOC: Correction: Sythaeryn is 30 ft from the creature and Ulrik. Bella and Fitz, are about 30 ft. from each other, 90 or so feet from the melee.

"I don't understand how I can miss such a large creature," Bella laments as she tries yet again to blast the manticore and misses wildly. She slips forward 25 feet to another place to hide.

Eldritch Blast: 1d20+5 9 1d10 4 (unbelievable)

 

[Steve Gorak]

Ulrik rejoices in the exquisite pain the beast inflicted upon him, having accepted his challenge. He laughs out loud, as he leaps for its neck.

OOC: move: 10 feet to reach the beast action: grapple, str check (advantage because of rage): 22 Edit: note that I am doing this to spice things up. The next round will be a shove prone if the grapple is successful & at least the beast wont't be able to fly away if this works.

 

[Charwoman Gene]

Ulrik grabs onto the beast, preventing it from moving.

The savage monstrosity tears into the barbarian in retaliation, with a vicious bite to the shoulder and a claw swipe down the leg. Ulrik is in poor shape, (2/15 hp) but still holds on.

Sythaeryn is within 30 feet of the melee, Bella and Fitz about 60.

Spoiler: Manticore Rolls

To break Grapple: 1D20+3 = [2]+3 = 5

1D6+3 = [3]+3 = 6

Crit: 1D8 = [2] = 2

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Fitz winced. That is more how he expected someone to be mauled by a manticore. He was no hero, but he felt responsible for convincing everyone to go adventuring with him, so he ran forward yelling, "Hang in there, mate, I'm comin' ta help ya!"

As he ran, he fired his bow again, now at closer range, and with the creature held, his arrow bit deep.

OOC: Move 30 feet toward them. Bow: 1D20+5 = [15]+5 = 20; 1D6+3 = [6]+3 = 9 Sneak Attack: 1D6 = [2] = 2 Damage: 11

 

[Steve Gorak]

OOC: FYI, @Chairwoman Gene, I've been compulsively rolling the next round's shove checks on coyote code to get a sense of Ulrik's odds. Once everyone has acted, I'll roll the ''real'' roll. CG, I just wanted to give you a head's up, as to not be accused of cheating (note the timestamps, and as difficult as it is, I'll stop now ;-)

 

[jmucchiello]

Bella moves 10 feet closer and tries a different spell: Sacred Flame (Manticore must make DC 13 Dex save or take Sacred Flame damage: 1d8 5 radiant damage.)

 

[Charwoman Gene]

The manticore roars in pain as the arrow and gout of radiant energy tear into its flesh.

OOC: Manticore down 33 hp.

 

[gargoyleking]

Sythaeryn drops hos sling and moves up to Ulrik, drawing his scimitar as he does so.

"Hold strong friend, I am here with you!"

He then takes a swing at the creature, but in attempting to avoid his ally innthe struggle his blade misses it's mark.

Spoiler: OOC

Scimitar: 1D20+5 = [2]+5 = 7
1D6+3 = [3]+3 = 6

Healing Word: 1D4+2 = [3]+2 = 5
