Critical?"  Couldn't find it on Roscoe's character sheet in the RG or in my 5e PHB.  I think you meant that Roscoe gets a critical hit because he rolled a natural 20 on his attack roll.  Let me know.  I don't want to deprive a character of his abilities.[/ooc]Guran advanced into the room after Roscoe, and made directly for the closest prone snoring orc.  Guran's chosen target was asleep diagonally to booted feet of the sitting guard currently burbling blood from its mouth, and Roscoe was within five feet of Guran.  Guran swung at the prone orc's mid-section, easily carving through both a woolen blanket that reeked of sheep, oil, and feet, and orc flesh.  He dealt 12 points of damage.  The orc immediately sat up and attempted to scrabble to standing.  It grasped for a dagger two or three feet away.[ooc]The orc Guran attacked will be Smelly Orc.  It isn't dead.  Yet.  Guran can make an opportunity attack against Smelly Orc as it sits up and reaches for its weapon.  This attack should go without benefit of advantage but Guran can use sneak attack damage.[/ooc]From his position in the doorway, Father Spec pulled with his wrist and uttered a sacred word, summoning sacred flames to rain down upon an orc sleeping in the far southeastern corner of the room.  Flame-like radiance bathed the orc, illuminating its cruel features in gilt flickers of yellow and red.  Where Spec's sacred flames touched it, the orc's skin bubbled and blackened.  The smell of burnt flesh filled started to fill the room.  The orc sprang up.  With no one immediately beside it, there was no one to challenge it as it stood up from prone.  When erect, the creature was a fearsome six feet in height, and had a greataxe in one hand.[ooc]I agree that someone asleep would autofail their Dex save.  Is there critical damage for spells in 5e?  Curious.[/ooc][ooc]Everyone roll initiative.  Combat!  Colden and Fulgrim, who remained in the hallway, had plenty of time to draw and prepare whatever weapon they carry that they might wish to use.[/ooc][HR][/HR][gm]STATUS:Orc Guard:  0/12 (dead)Smelly Orc:  2/14Tough Orc:  13/18Orcs 4-6:  uninjured[/gm]</blockquote>
