Anson stood where he was, raised his arm, and fired another flame-blade at the glowing skull. It hurt his joints to fire -- again, something that had never happened before. But the pain felt good somehow. He aimed, and the blade shot forth, and struck home. Bonus: Aim. Move: none allowed...

Sure -- if Caer isn't there, I can use the Ready action, with the trigger, "if an ally is within 5' of the enemy" which will trigger the attaxck and get the SA bonus. With the fast-and-loose time frame of PBP I wasn't sure we were worrying about that, but I am absolutely prepared to use my...

Hearing the commotion in the next room, Anson enters the room and makes his way to the chest. He turns to see the glowing skull at the other side of the room. Before he think, a blade shoots forth from his hand. Move and (bonus) dash should get Anson beside the chest, even if he is slowed by...

I'm sorry -- I think I posted while you were typing, sticking with what I said before we knew more. Yes, I could set up an Silent Image, which could provide some cover. With Urgan moving ahead, he gets to test the (presumed) spellcaster. She will either flee (which we can't do anything about)...

So with my previous declared action, that means Urgan moves up to BE or BF 4 with 30' movement, ignoring the nearby cultist (and hoping someone else gets him, and is within 60' to cast Mind Sliver on Valendra. See what happens...

From the beacon's stand, Anson turns, trying to assess what is real and what is not. He hears a voice from behind him -- he is wary -- but the foe is either invisible or it is another illusion. Either way, he is more effective fighting the dwarf. Another blade emerges from his fist, and again he...

Urgan feels shame that he had not seen that the tree was in pain; that there was new life waiting to emerge. He always focuses on peception, and as a result often misses something of reality. It was abeautiful moment, his strange companion Caer dancing and serving as midwife to the shrub. That...

Round 2. Anson lights the beacon, despite the fight that has broken out about him. He is determined. He shouts out, "There are illusions! Don't trust what you see!"

Yup -- I pulled the trigger. Second round Anson's lighting the beacon and spending a hit die to do so. Round 3 he'll attack again, having dropped the sticks.

Urgan is not great at sneaking, but he does his best to remain out of the light, so he can see better. The guard's nervous appearance gives Urgan an idea, and suddenly a roxk lands right bewhind the guard, as if part of th ecave has collapsed. Stealth 1d20+2=12. Cast Minor Illusion -- rock...

Anson slides his way along the edge of the trap. and enters the room. His hands are empty, but for the flame balanced in one of them, which further illuminates the room. "We are not here to stop you. Indeed, we are trying to get through that door as well." He begins. Possibly he has been...

Am I right that we think the last beacon is through the door they are trying to get past? If I am wrong about that, then what Anson is about to do is ill-motivated. In any case, two failed attempts at conversation is enough to convince me this is going to need something more, and it may be a...

At the statue, Anson looks to see if there is a similar key in the base, as there had been before. He spends a few seconds listening to the voices. Are they speaking common? Do they sound like they are in conversation with each other? debate? yelling? with their lights, their presence can be...

Benny's spell brings light, and Anson holds out his palm to produce a second source of illumination. It's not as bright, but he produces a golden flame in his hand and holds it aloft. cast Produce Flame.
