D&D 5E (IC) Fitz's Folly

[gargoyleking]

Harb hissed at the sound of grinding stone. He looked about to see Delrack shoving one of the statues aside. Then the sound of crumbling stone seemed to fill the air, along with a lot of dust. Even from the entryway. He could barely make out that the floor there no longer seemed to exist dashing to Delrack's side, the monk twice attempted to strike the nearest statue to the dwarf while covering him with his own body, though he slipped into his defensive stance, twirrling his quarterstaff and dancing around in hopes of deflecting or dodging any incoming missiles.

Spoiler: ooc

Move, strike and dodge. Also, locking as many of them in melee range as possible to force disadvantage and the like.

“Oh, bluidy ‘ells,” Dellrak grunted as he watched the stone crumble from the mummies and draw their bows.. “O’ course.” He drew his greataxe and stepped to the nearest archer, swinging hard, his weapon glowing with magica force.

Greataxe, Planar Warrior: 1D20+7 = [8]+7 = 15

OOC: I've attached excel map to this post @FitzTheRuke your link is broken

Myrral quickly pulls one of his nets and wraps it around the nearest archer using its throw as the cover and positions himself right between two monsters, his small dagger looking weak against these monsters.

Spoiler: Actions

Net against A1; damage: 1D20+6 = [16]+6 = 22
1D4 = [3] = 3 damage taken only if action to free itself fails STR DC 12
It is restrained, has the disadvantage on all attacks and all attacks against it have the advantage

Move: P17
Reaction: Cutting words to grant disadvantage on an archer NOT ADJACENT to Myrral and targeting him

 

[Neurotic]

The hunters look at one another, snarl, and position themselves so they can target the archer their shaman just wrap-packaged. It seems the net works like an arrow attractor as four arrows fly against it and all clatter against the creature.

Spoiler: Actions

All attacks against A1; damage: 2D20.HIGH(1)+5 = [7, 18]+5 = 23
1D6+3 = [1]+3 = 4
2D20.HIGH(1)+5 = [15, 15]+5 = 20
1D6+3 = [6]+3 = 9
2D20.HIGH(1)+5 = [17, 1]+5 = 22
1D6+3 = [4]+3 = 7
2D20.HIGH(1)+5 = [20, 16]+5 = 25
1D6+3 = [1]+3 = 4

Crit: 1D6 = [6] = 6
All hits: 4, 9, 7, and CRIT for 10 piercing damage - too bad about odd numbers if resistance

OOC: But I spent so much time on my nice map!

 

[Neurotic]

Ooc: hmmm, no line of sight for the watchers. Maybe that one stright across? With covers probably, but if there is nothing to shoot from the outside, simply move them inside. Climbing speed and old wall go will together

Spoiler: ooc

We did string a rope along the hall with some pitons. Should be possible to traverse the gap with an athletics check?

At least it's in a spoiler now. Not that I suggest spoilers for regular OOC chat in the IC tthread.

Miss Imogen looks up from the mosaic as it crumbles from beneath her feet, and sees the archers bearing down on her. Her first thought is that each of them has arrows that will fit her bow.

Uncertain what is happening, and unable to see clear enough for a shot, she calls to her companions to protect themselves. Meanwhile, she sees the layout of the room from Harb's torch, and positions herself between two pillars. Miss Imogen is not a strong woman, but she understands the power of a lever.

With her feet against the corner pillar and her hands against the one next to it, she pushes as hard as she can, shimmying up towards the archers themselves, a cross beam between the two pillars.

Hard as she tries, she is unable to get them to budge, and as the caked stone crumbles and the figures come to life, she slips falls to the ground.

OOC: Move to X16. Action: Acrobatics: 1d20+7=8. Ugh, really? I was so pleased with this idea. Fumble = fall to the ground and make no more moves? If she can get out she will; she's no good without light.

As the mosaic shifted to the sound of crumbling stones and the archer "statues" animated, the Sticks burst into action. Harb rushed to help Dellrak as the mummified Moa cultist reached through the statue to grab at the dwarf. Harb smacked the thing away with his staff, giving Dellrak room to cleave the thing with his axe. The desiccated head fell to the floor as the creature on Dellrak's other side grabbed him from behind, pulling him off balance as the archers opened fire.

Miss Imogen began to climb the wall, heading for the hole in the ceiling - a potential quick way out. She used a pillared ridge in the wall for climbing leverage, but an arrow struck the wall just above her head, which caused her to falter, and then she was struck by another arrow in the back - it wasn't deep, but the blow was enough to drop her back to the floor.

Myrral growled and his tabaxi friends rushed into the building, climbing along the hallway's walls to avoid the spiked pit that now spanned the hall. Myrral threw his net over the closest foe and jumped past it, trying to protect the others. In spite being netted, the mummified cultist swung its upper body around, distracting Myrral while another nearby one reached out to grab him, and yet another fired an arrow. Myrral suddenly roared at the archer, which would often throw off an opponent's aim. The archer seemed to react to his attempt, but not as much as he expected, and the arrow struck him in the leg.

Around the room many of the archers fired in the direction of Angis at the secret door, but Harb was in the way, and the monk swung his staff, blocking all but one arrow that grazed his forearm. Outide, Rodrigo secured the rope, which now hung in loops from each of the arrow-slits along the eastern wall.
