(IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

OOC: My thinking was (a) he has a penalty to saves so it's more lkely to catch this time, and (b) his disappearance will perhaps upset the others and sew dissent. I was trying to capitalize on Hex, not undermine you. If you feel I am trodding on your toes, though, say so.

OOC: I want to learn how to sew dissent! That sounds like tons of fun and would keep me entertained for weeks!
 

As the swirling melee around him moves at a snail's pace, Doc carefully considers his options. No fire, more rustlers. He carefully fires two more shots at the Tall Hat callin' out, sending one more tormented soul along with the bullets. Cut off the head and the body will die.

Then he gives an almost imperceptible shimmy and goes away from the mouth of the melee to allow for better shootin' options.

OOC:
Concentration Check for HEX-
Concentration Save (DC10): 1D20+4 = [14]+4 = 18

1D10+5 = [1]+5 = 6
2D6 = [6, 3] = 9
1D6 = [2] = 2
Piercer reroll: 1D10+5 = [6]+5 = 11

22 Damage

Second shot (no sneak): 1D20+9 = [11]+9 = 20
1D10+5 = [10]+5 = 15
1D6 = [3] = 3

The Colonel yelled, "Be Gone!" and a wind whipped through the room that put out many of the smaller remaining fires. It blew into the giant chief and he staggered back as if he would be carried away by it, but his ugly face sneered in determination, and he through the howling wind and gritted teeth, declared, "NO!"

The wind died down and the Colonel's shoulder's slumped, tired from the effort and more than a little disappointed. Doc, who had held onto his hat through the gale, took two shots at the still-standing chief, which bit holes in his blubbery mass, and then he high-tailed it up the hall, next to Gimlak, who was cussing and pulling himself out from under the thrown bed.

Duvrael, who had also been knocked down by the bed, hauled himself up and used a spell to make himself tougher, dulling the pain and strengthening his resolve. He eyed the chieftess, who eyed him back. She was thankfully out of nearby beds to throw, but it appeared that hill giants liked to store rocks under their beds, and a few lay there on the floor where the bed had been. She picked one up and heedless of her own safety, she flung it with great force at the yuan-ti wizard.

OOC: I really want to let you have the Banish, but he made the save by fluke last round, and this time uses up his one and only legendary resistance. Doc does 40 to him; Chieftess does 22 to Duvrael, but grants advantage on attacks against herself. Chief stomps Orc1 dead and kicks Kahru for 9 (dc17 STR save or push 10 feet. If you fail, the chief will rush westward. @Tonguez. Then @Maxperson Kaligan and Kahru can go. I'd like to find out if the chief gets to charge first, too. Still a buncha giants to go. Bear with me.

Duvrael watches the rock fly towards him, and he knows he has no chance of dodging it. Despite the strength of primordial bears running through him, the yuan ti pureblood wizard is almost knocked out by the stone crashing into his side.

OOC: Ooof! That hurts.
Duvrael AC12(15) HP 17/56 THP 0/13 HD 9/9 PP15* SSdc17 2/4 0/3 2/3 0/3 0/1
 

Kahru saw the giants foot as it lifted off the stomped orc and kicked towards him, he braced himself for the impact and managed to parry himself off to the side with a grunt.

looking up he finds himself staring at the chieftains groin and so makes the attack only for his swing to go wild overcome by the horrible odor

OOC: 5e really needs a called shot to the gonads rule lol!

Save (Rage Advantage)_:1D20.HIGH(2)+2 = [16]+2 = 18

Attack: 1D20+7 = [5]+7 = 12 Miss!
 

Seeing Doc doing well against the hill giant chief, Kaligan sets himself against the giant in front of him, trying to get its attention so that it leaves Doc be. Kaligan roars what he hopes is a suitable imitation of what Kahru sounds like and lays into the giant with his sword, striking the giant once. As the sword bites into the giant, telekinetic energy courses down the blade.

OOC: Sword swings against Giant 3: 1D20+8 = [2]+8 = 10 1D20+8 = [15]+8 = 23
Long sword and Psionic Strike damage: 1D8+4 = [4]+4 = 8 1D8+4 = [2]+4 = 6 14 points of damage total. I still have that gift of the gem dragon roll waiting as a reaction if I am struck by a creature within 10 feet of me. The number is 19 from post #364
 


Gimlak gets out of the debris that used to be a bed. He silently moves next to Duvrael, and warps reality behind the giantess, and then walks back to where he was.

OOC: action: psionically cast synaptic static centered on bk50, should affect the chief and chieftess. int save dc 17 or 32 psychic damage (half as much in a successful save. After a failed save, a target has muddled thoughts for 1 minute. During that time, it rolls a d6 and subtracts the number rolled from all its attack rolls and ability checks, as well as its Constitution saving throws to maintain concentration. The target can make an Intelligence saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Bonus action: convert 4th level spell to 4 sp

Move: back and forth to Duvrael’ spot to see behind the giantess.
