[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8636606, member: 20564"] Eoghan's thoughts spun out loud to everyone, the first darting, frantic and searching but then rising in joy [B][COLOR=rgb(147, 101, 184)]~<Shatter - too loud. Hypnotic pattern - too big, it will get some of us. Wait -- [I]that note[/I], what was it?! There was soot, that was an active chimney -- they likely aren't real. Summons or animated perhaps. So -->~[/COLOR][/B] Finally a full fledged though was sent: [B][COLOR=rgb(147, 101, 184)]~<We get the master!>~[/COLOR][/B] The tall firbolg started to stride across the room, his first few steps were confident but otherwise normal. It was the next ones that took him past the boulders that were extraordinary. He strode as if he not only owned the room, but as if the very boards of the floor owned him personal allegiance. A presence came over him, more akin to the stillness when the faerie decide if you honor or insult them than any human-like authority. He marched forward with an imperious tread, and slight bow invited Jack, then Quinn and Tenibor, and finally Valda to move also, as if nothing else would dare at this very moment. A fae invigoration came upon them. The firbolg kept this up for three, four, five of his long paces, and then the room shifted back to normalcy. He was just a tall humanoid walking again, whatever otherworldly mantle he had worn gone. But it's aftereffects lingered. He finished the walk, half climbing over the fallen stone giant to get a view of the giant stone past the door. [B][COLOR=rgb(147, 101, 184)]<Though art ill-mannered and ill-formed, no proper obelisk one would find in a henge. Rather an overgrown pebble cleaved from a tombstone instead of a monolith>[/COLOR][/B], he says in vitrolic Sylvan. [B][COLOR=rgb(147, 101, 184)]<And I hope this works.>[/COLOR][/B] [ooc]Folks, this affects most of the rest of the party, so please pay attention. First, Eoghan starts his movement, moving 15' to R70. As a bonus action he activates his Mantle of of Inspiration. [B]Everyone except Bible gains 8 tHP[/B], and [B]may spend their reaction to move half their speed without triggering Opportunity Attacks[/B]. He uses that reaction from him to move to O68, which takes him away from the attacking boulders in a way that doesn't trigger their OA. He then continues his move - 5' to N68, and I'm going to assume the giant is difficult terrain and it take his last 10' of move to move one more square to M69, likely leaning against the giants head. Then he's hoping the big boulder isn't immune to psychic damage and is doing another Vicious Mockery. (Note, vicious mockery does not require a language in common.) I got a nat 20 on my reverse WIS save. If it takes psychic damage it takes 6 damage, and even if not hurt it has disadvantage on the next attack roll it makes. [URL='http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=260939']VM vs. big boulder: 1D20+9 = [20]+9 = 29[/URL] [URL='http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=260939']2D4 = [3, 3] = 6[/URL] He's hoping it's either a summon or an animate object and the damage may ruin Concentration. BTW, no Silvery Barbs, Eoghan used his reaction to move. [B]Eoghan[/B] AC15 HP 75/75 HD 9/9 PP19 SSdc17 3/4 3/3 3/3 2/3 1/1 BI 3/5[/ooc] [/QUOTE]
