D&D 5E [IC] Creamsteak's Princes of Elemental Evil II

[Creamsteak]

Shayuri hits.

A troll comes stomping into the room knocking over a dead water Weird in a jar.

More trolls approach.

The ogre swings and hits Kubeba for 11.

The spellcaster unleashes a foot-wide exploding ball of acid into the room, heedless of his allies concerns or anger. He then ducks back behind the wall.

Everyone in the room must make a dexterity saving throw or take 34 acid damage (save for half). In addition, if you fail to save, you will take 14 more acid damage at the end of your next turn.

The Troll, Ogre, and Reaver all fail their saves, with the Ogre and Reaver dying immediately and the troll cursing his "ally" as he suffers real damage from the acid bomb.

 

[Steve Gorak]

OOC: Is Thaliss also affected by the damage? He was hiding inside his illusory wall, which was outside the room (see post 297 at N63 or M63 (recall, he cast a wall to prevent the spellcaster from having line of sight, and had an upper obstruction for the ogre, so the wall is further removed from the room: post 271 and map at post 276

 

[Creamsteak]

OOC: I thought you dismissed the wall, but yeah if you were in the hallway you escape the blast.

 

[Steve Gorak]

OOC: Nope, the wall was still active (Thaliss was still concentrating on it). So cool, I'll assume he wasn't hit.

Thaliss moves out of the shelter of his illusory wall unscathed. He telepathically tells his companions Hold off attacking the two nearest trolls, I'll charm them

He looks straight in the eyes of the injured troll and the one entering the room and says out loud in the common tongue "The caster there is obviously not your ally. Join us. Start by your alliance with us and fight our ennemies" and he points towards the direction of the caster. His words echo in the monsters' minds, as Thaliss telepathically says them, to ensure the beasts understand.


[sblock=ooc]

[Steve Gorak]

OOC: Thaliss will wait to see if the trolls comply before completing his move (3 squares left)

 

[Creamsteak]

Both trolls fail the save.

 

[Steve Gorak]

Both trolls fail the save.

Thaliss moves forward to press the trolls to go after the caster

OOC: move to Q66

 

[Kobold Stew]

OOC: Carradoc dex save: [roll0]. DOn't know the DC, but let's see what we get.

 

[Kobold Stew]

OOC: I'll take that as a fail. HP down to 4. Carradoc will move out of the room, in hopes of avoiding the acid damage.

Carradoc's eyes start burning, and so he doesn't see the effect on his skin clearly. But he feels it. He fires a fireball in the direction of the spell caster, and then tries to leave the room.

OOC: Action: Fireball, entered on U 70. Damage = [roll0], Dex save vs. DC 16 for half. Move: 40' out the corridor to X60. Currently: HP 4, AC 17; spells 3/3/1/1.

 

[Creamsteak]

OOC: The acid is on you at that point, so you will take that additional damage at the end of your turn and be dropped. DC is 14.
