D&D 5E (IC) Vault of the Dracolich (River Gang)

Location: Temple Grand Entryway Encounter: The Last of the Beast Boys

Begin Round One

Udit silently snuck up the stairs to where the mercenary lay sleeping on the mosaic symbol of Bhaal. He grabbed the man, and began to slide him back toward the stairs to the prison. The beetle had done it's work well, for the man barely stirred at Udit's warning and did not wake when Udit began to drag him.

But something bothered Udit. There was the strange sense he was being watched, and an odd smell, partway between the smell of a dead animal cooking on a campfire, and that of a wet dog. Udit looked up at the open door (he had been trying to avoid being seen from there, by staying low). He spotted the source of the smell: Two wolves, mostly skeletal, but with their heads on fire, were slowly slipping toward him.

GM: I didn't think the peace would last long. Still need to know if Auraia made her dc13 Con Save. Also, apparently Shield of Faith is concentratin, and Kurzon was hit a number of times (four? five?) so I don't know if he still has that going. Let's say Sesto's Spiritual Weapon still has two rounds left in it. I think that's about right.

After attending to Drako's wounds, Sesto was not happy with the results. With more time he could have done a much better job but this would have to be sufficient for now.
Udit seemed to fair better, he was already up the stairs dragging the sleeping mercenary back. But wait! What's that behind Udit? This is noot loooking goood...
Udit! Watch out behind you! Sesto yells and then moves his mace up to stop the dog-like skeleton to reach Udit, while focusing on one of his green crystals. Next, Sesto calls forth Lathander's flame and let it descend on the dog.

Jumping backwards to avoid the blood spay... and the accusations... Udit skedadled back, switching back to the bow and moving to the back line.

Ooc: move and cunning action to g29.

"Looks like we have a natural choke point here," Kurzon moves forwards slightly to take up position. "We can limit their numbers here."

OOC: move to J32
 


Udit

Udit slit the throat of a helpless, sleeping mercenary who was lying on a mosaic symbol of Bhaal, God of Murder. He felt strange afterward, as if he had done something wrong, or perhaps something very very right.

Either way, he rushed back down the stairs to join the rest of the River Gang.

Sesto, Kurzon & Torbin

Sesto sent the last of his flying mace smashing into the skeletal wolf and followed that with a searing light. A gargled whistle came from the other room and the wolves pulled back, going out-of-sight through the doors. The man with the metal-reinforced jaw popped out from behind the door and fired a heavy crossbow bolt into Kurzon's shield as the big half-orc moved to the stairs to provide protection for the others. The mercenary ducked back behind the doorway.

Torbin waited for an opponent to come to the stairs, but none came; instead the voice of Bardaby, the Beast, raspier now than before (having been terribly burnt by Pyrus nearly nine hours ago) bellowed from the other room, "Alright, ya bastards! Ya've killed most of my men! Sure we can work out some kind of deal!"

“Thank you for the help,” says to Sesto as he saw the doors open and some kind of undead dog walk out.

“I don’t think I will recommend this place to my relatives.” Drako said as he stood up and prepared for what was to come.
