Into the Woods

Kobold Stew · Sep 25, 2020

Albrecht's knees buckle, as the creature attacks him, and he begins to scream.

He hears nothing, and wonders if this is death, come finally for him at last. Silence and pain, and the last sight you see.

Well, if it is, he will do his best to die with dignity.

His lips call out the foullest curses he has learned in his time living on this earth, but no one, not him, the creature, or his companions, can discern the precise words as he hefts his axe and again strikes at the creature before him.

OOC:

Attack: 1d20+6=16. If a hit, damage = 1d10+4=8 magical slashing damage.
No move.
14 points damage to albrecht.

Does anyone have the reading lips stunt? If so I'll give you swears!

Umbril @Neurotic

Umbril makes another quick double-slash, but it seems his previous fury left the weapons out of alignment. His attack and quick follow-up with his offhand interfere with each other and it appears he parries his own attack against the skeletal figure in front of him. But those clangs turn out to be just faints as both blades bite into the held creature.

Dual wield attack vs boss; slashing damage: 1D20+6 = [8]+6 = 14
1D6+4 = [2]+4 = 6
1D20+6 = [1]+6 = 7
1D6+4 = [6]+4 = 10
- logically, lowest to hit goes with max damage

Dual wield attack vs boss advantage rolls: 1D20+6 = [15]+6 = 21
1D20+6 = [16]+6 = 22
but the advantage saves things

6 and 10 damage

The lanky creature writhes in Bimpnotts' massive grip. It's mouth and eyes glistening in Silent rage. The skin of the thing is both dry, like old leather, and slimy, somewhat akin to that of a slug. It twists and turns trying to get its claws or fangs on it's captor while, at the same time, trying to break out of the Grapple.

OOC:

Gonna guess a 10 does not break the grapple, unless Bimp rolls low.

Bimpnott has some trouble holding onto the undead thing as it struggles and almost, too close, slips free. But years of holding down even more slippery suspects means the firbolg knows exactly how to hold a firm enough grip.

Athletics: 1D20+7 = [3]+7 = 10

So the creature didn’t roll higher than Bimpnott, but it’s close!

Terry casts sacred flame again Dex Save DC 15 or take radiant damage: 1D8 = [4] = 4

mips42 · Sep 28, 2020

The creature completely fails in avoiding the radiant barrage of Terry.

OOC:

[1]+2=3 CRITICAL FAIL. Max damage applied!

Still holding on to the creature, Bimpnott pushes it down with his impressive size and strength, holding the undead down to the ground.

OOC:

I can Shove it to Prone without releasing the grapple. That means another Athletics or Acrobatics contest, which replaces my Attack:

Shove: 1D20+7 = [10]+7 = 17

If successful, the creature also has the Prone condition (disadvantage on attacks, attacks against it within 5 feet have advantage, other attacks against it have disadvantage). It could end the Prone condition by standing up, but that requires half its movement and because of the Grappled condition it has 0 movement.

It’s truly stuck if it fails this contest.

Sensing the heavy Firbolg trying to force it to the ground, the creature musters it's strength and shoves back, barely overcoming the Firbolgs attempts.

OOC:

[18]+2=20

The Firbolg is holding the beast, and it's standing right there. "Hold him still, Bimpnott," the dwarf ~~says~~ mouths in the silence stating the obvious.

He swings with his axe, and deals a solid blow.

OOC:

Attack: 1d20+6=21. Damage = 1d10+4=12 magical slashing.
HP 25/39.
