Round 1

Emmyr gave his own roar of defiance as the bandits launched their ambush. He hauled back and heaved one of his handaxes at a charging bandit, catching the man right in the face.

The bandits burst through the doorway taking up positions around the room, as if they had practiced this very drill a dozen times over. Some of them were armed with crossbows and they took wild shots at the group hoping to slow down any advance as other men armed with spears and pole arms took to the cover of the table.

Emmyr took off a bandits ear as he stood in the middle of the room, but in return someone behind the man lobbed a javelin at the dwarf. It didn't pierce the chainmail hauberk the dwarf wore, but it did hurt and probably will leave him with a bruise in the morning.

Coming up after all the bandits is a gruff bearded fellow who has been bellowing orders this entire time. "Have at em' boys! Ain't nothing but women folk and a few wannabe heroes! HA!"

Zanword visibly flinches when the bandit says 'only womanfolk' as he internally prepares for hell sure to follow such statement. He moves forward skirting the barrier and attacking the closest thug.

Round 2
Emmyr yanked one of the shortswords off his back to replace his axe and charged forward, angling for the corner of one of the barricading tables, flanking around to attack the bandit there, slashing with axe and sword. Both attacks missed, though, and he slashed one more time with his axe, this time managing to pierce the studded leather armor.

Templeton kipped up the stairs and deftly moved around his dwarven ally and engaged the bandit with Emmyr. He gave a wide swipe with his rapier guaging the man's defenses, that the bandit easily dodged.

Gwylla, angered by the womenfolk comment, gets herself ready to charge in. She mumbles some arcane words and a shimmer of force surrounds and protects her.

[sblock=Moving forward]

Upside-down-Rana mumbled a quiet curse. She gripped the damp stones under her fingers and seriously considered just walking off in a huff: scruffy bandits, not a blazing cultist to be seen amongst them!

Filler. Pleabes. Obstacles. Wastes of precious time!

The mumbling took on a more cadenced beat. Annoyance shaped itself into hatred, hatred pounded into chant, chant poured into power, and power into harm.

So far unnoticed by all - especially the crossbowmen and the bearded shouter - the moss behind them, the one covering the walls at the back of the keep, started to slowly slither… viny tentacles to ‘lovingly’ wrap around a foot here… a quiver there… there, a neck.

Then - *then* they noticed!

“Suffer and be damned!” cackled the witch, her voice echoing oddly off the damp walls of their (future) tomb.


Actions: Target D,E,F and the bearded leader with Entangle please, Str 12 save or be Restrained

Aridha summons a spirit of flame to her hand, where it whirls madly about waiting to be unleashed. She looks at it though and realizes...this isn't enough. Can she do better?

"Grow," she urges the spark of fire, directing life energy into it as she might a wound or a plant. "Grow!"

The spirit crackled and surged, becoming a bonfire in her hands! With a startled yelp, Aridha hurled the head-sized ball of flames at the bandits! It arced over the barricades and landed in their back ranks, throwing their leader into a yellow-orange relief lighting.

"Get him!" shouted the druid...and the fire spirit lunged!

(Flame Sphere cast on K8 as action, then bonus action to cause it to ram the leader! He must make DC 13 Dexterity save (if he's restrained, this is at disadvantage) or take [roll0] fire damage. And if anything ends their turn adjacent to K8, they take another 2d6 fire damage.)
