Ethian utters the ancient elven name of Sehanine Moonbow. The sound lingers until holy fire engulfs nearby bats.

OOC: action: word of radiance, constitution save dc 14 or 6 radiant damage affecting all bats within 5 ft of Ethian.

Bats were everywhere; it would have been disorienting even had they not already experienced the strange noises and delusions of the mine. But Ethian's light kept the group safe and focused. The light flared, and many bats were blinded, falling to the ground were they were left to die or trampled underfoot. Confused by the light, the bats were not as dangerous as the group had feared, though one flew close enough to Ethian to leave a scratch on the elf's cheek.

OOC: Okay, so Argenti had done 9 actual damage, so Bats2 is gone. Hawthorne did 15 (7) to Bats1, which scratched away at Crock Jon's THP (doing 6 to Jon's 7 THP); Ethian did 6 to both remaining swarms, but got scratched for 9 (so 2 made it past his THP!) Half the group still to go.

Spoiler: Rolls

Bats!
Bats1 vs Crock Jon: 1D20+4 = [14]+4 = 18 for 2D6 = [4, 2] = 6
Bats2 vs Ethian: 1D20+4 = [15]+4 = 19 2D6 = [4, 5] = 9
Bats1 dc14 Con Save: 1D20 = [13] = 13
Bats2 dc14 Con Save: 1D20 = [5] = 5

Disoriented and flailing, Crock Jon just starts punching individual bats.

OOC: Attack 1d20+6=12 for 1d8+4=6 bludgeoning and so 3 points to one of the swarms.

"HYAH!" Argenti hurls another stone at the swarms, but the stone flies wide as one of dead bats falls on her head.

"I'm going to need some shampoo after this."

OOC: Swing and a miss~ Eldritch Blast Damage 2 is bludgeoning the rest is force: 1D20+6 = [1]+6 = 7 1D10+4+2 = [7]+4+2 = 13

Cairn raises his stone weapon high counting on the space above, but a stactite hanging low fails to yield to his stony form. The weapon catches the protrusion just before the swing and all power behind the swing goes into the arms and flings Cairn backward almost spilling him to the ground.

"Rude!"

Spoiler: Actions

Action: Maul attack; B damage: 1D20+6 = [1]+6 = 7

Crock Jon reaches out at the final swarm, and with a quick jab grabs the largest of the remaining bats. As he squeezes the life out of it, the remainder separate and float back up to the top of the cave.

OOC: Attack swarm 1: 1d20+6=19 hit, damage = 1d8+4=5, but even with resistance that kills them/it.

Cairn straightens himself and this time tries to be precise. Slow movement does very little damage, bats dodging around the weapon. But sheer mass and size of the weapon still manage to clip or crush some of them.

Spoiler: Actions

Action: Try #2 Maul attack: 1D20+6 = [6]+6 = 12
2D6+4 = [1, 3]+4 = 8

Crock Jon swung his big fists at the bats, and Cairn swung an even bigger rock. Bats fell to the ground left and right. Many of them left the swarm and returned to their fissure, or clung to the ceiling, confused by Ethian's light. Only a few remained, flying about and trying to bite someone, anyone, in pathetic vain.

OOC: Only one left, and it's at 6 HP.

"HYAH!" Argenti throws another stone, this one ricocheting off one bat and into another, as the last are knocked from the sky.

"Is that all of them?" She asks, while keeping her guard up.

OOC: This should do it. Eldritch Blast Damage 2 is bludgeoning the rest is force: 1D20+6 = [18]+6 = 24 1D10+4+2 = [4]+4+2 = 10
