(IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 1

[VLAD the Destroyer]

OOC: @FitzTheRuke If bugbear 3 attacked Tenibor wouldn't I get a AoO as it had to pass by me to get to him?

 

[Blue]

Eoghan watched the tart and the mallet fall flat and shook his head wistfully. After this he'd have to have a discussion with Tenibor about the arcane nature of slapstick.

OOC: @FitzTheRuke If bugbear 3 attacked Tenibor wouldn't I get a AoO as it had to pass by me to get to him?

OOC: I assumed that Tenibor moved to the bottom of the stairs to target the Keeper with Hideous Laughter.

 

[VLAD the Destroyer]

OOC: Ah that would make sense.

 

[VLAD the Destroyer]

Quinn watches the bugbear charge Tenibor and take a swing at the wizard. The druid lashes out at the creature with his thorn whip which wraps around the bugbears neck. As the vine strangles the life from the bugbear Quinn moves into the room to threaten the remaining creatures.

OOC: Action: Thorn Whip attack against BG3: 1d20+10 21 2d6 6 Move: That should drop BB3. I will then move to CV47.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Valda shot a bugbear dead and worked her way down the sloping ceiling to the wall near Eoghan. Quinn sent out a thorny whip that ended the life of the bugbear that had attacked Tenibor, and then he moved into the room next to a pillar. The guard that had originally spoken to Eoghan rushed him, and bashed him with a morningstar.

One of the few remaining Bugbears threw a javelin up at Valda, but it struck the ceiling and clattered to the floor near Eoghan.

OOC: Quinn killed BB3 & Valda killed BB8. BBG1 did 11 to Quinn. BB5 did BBGuard1 Morningstar vs Quinn: 1D20+5 = [15]+5 = 20 for 2D8+3 = [3, 5]+3 = 11 BB5 Javelin vs Valda: 1D20+4 = [4]+4 = 8

[Blue]

Eoghan gestured like a mad conductor, arrows went flying by. The majority of them sped toward the target that survived them moments ago, but three peeled off to deal with a badly hurt bugbear.

Eoghan hurried through that gap and then curved a bit toward where he heard the giant tongue.

::With a face like that, who need enemas?:: he mocked The Keeper.

OOC: Animated arrows (round 3): 1D20+8 = [16]+8 = 24, 1D4+4 = [2]+4 = 6 1D20+8 = [14]+8 = 22, 1D4+4 = [1]+4 = 5 1D20+8 = [12]+8 = 20, 1D4+4 = [3]+4 = 7 1D20+8 = [18]+8 = 26, 1D4+4 = [2]+4 = 6 1D20+8 = [13]+8 = 21, 1D4+4 = [1]+4 = 5 1D20+8 = [20]+8 = 28, 1D4+4 = [1]+4 = 5 1D20+8 = [13]+8 = 21, 1D4+4 = [3]+4 = 7 Woah, massive overkill bonus. Total damage to BB4 is 41. 1D20+8 = [5]+8 = 13, 1D4+4 = [4]+4 = 8 1D20+8 = [19]+8 = 27, 1D4+4 = [2]+4 = 6 1D20+8 = [2]+8 = 10, 1D4+4 = [3]+4 = 7 Total damage to BB5 is 6, just enough to get him. Move up to DA47, moving straight first until more than 10' from the wall of fire then diagonally. Vicious Mockery on The Keeper. DC 17 WIS save or 5 psychic damage and disadvantage on next attack. Vicious Mockery: 2D4 = [3, 2] = 5 BTW, I'm unsure how far the doors are open if I can see The Keeper. If not then just retarget the Vicious Mockery onto BB1.

OOC: Concentration check: 1d20+2 14. Wall stays up. Will get a true post up later.

 

[Lidgar]

Hearing the sound of apes approaching, Jack turned to face the wall of flames yet again.

"Out of the frying pan and into the..." he said before covering his face with his arm yet again to vault, and then tumble past the intense heat. Once through, he sprang to his feet and quickly aimed Darling above Bible's head and into the face of misshapen giant.

OOC: Jack moves to CR45, assuming that's just outside the damage area of the WoF while still outside the reach of the hill giant. He then fires at the Keeper. Dex saving throw: 1D20+9 = [17]+9 = 26 No damage with Evasion. Sneak attack with light crossbow: 1D20+10 = [13]+10 = 23 1D8+6+5D6 = [2]+6+[5, 3, 4, 4, 1] = 25
