D&D 5E [IC] Against the Slavelords

[BlueLotus]

[section]Levanna hurried to the doorway opposite Quellathe. She leaned toward the opening enough to see the entire room

"Guess again!" she retorted, throwing her hand up and shooting bolts of mystic energy at the dwarf. As they struck his chest, Levanna used the opportunity to take greater stock of the situation.
[/section]

[sblock=actions]Levanna will cast magic missile on the dwarf [roll0]

She'll also try to survey the room. Since it looks like a meeting is under way, are there any important looking items on the table? Does Levanna recognize any markings on their clothing? And does she know much about drow? (History check?) [roll1]

GM: Want to wait a bit to hear Tirion and Kelvyn actions and rolls, but yes Levanna did see a number of papers and a stack of gold sitting on the table

 

[Scotley]

Still kicking himself mentally for missing the bell, Kelvyn is slow to react to the presence of obvious enemy's. Gods what have we stumbled into? He shifts to the right into the room and fires at the Drow Female with his crossbow.

Where: Port Fury/Beneath the Temple
When: 3.5/Morning
Round 1

Tirion pushed to the door of the room and took in the situation. He eyed the orc and the drow female.

“Levanna, stay outside the room,” he told the wizard as he stepped inside the door. Presenting his holy symbol to the room, he cast Silence centered on the table. Immediately all sounds ceased within the room.

Uhtred, reacting instantly, moves past Kelvyn into the chamber and cuts into the orc! The creature reels in pain as his blood is spilled and then hisses at him “Foal beardless runt!!!” It is only a split second later that he realizes that the orc cursed him in dwarvish!!! Levanna moved forward and over the rouge’s shoulder to shot multiple silvery darts into the dwarf he growled in anger. Kelvyn quickly darted into the room and shot at one of the dark elves with his crossbow but missed!!! Then Quellathe darted past the open door, firing her bow twice at the drow female but missed both times!! Then Tirion moved into room to block the door. Calling on his divine powers a sudden hush fell over area around the table, blocking all sound!!!

The drow female started making strange hand gestures in frustration as her mouth moved silently. She draw a blackiron saber and pointed at Tirion. She then moved to the door opposite of the entrance the priest and the others hovered around and opened it. The orc also tried to speak but in his frustration a strange black axe seemed to form out of the shadows and he lashed out at Uhtred with it but missed!! Then the other drows moved up and around the female, surrounding her and providing cover. As they did so three shot small handheld crossbow bolts at Tirion, two striking the cleric as he felt the burning of some dark poison coursing through his blood!!!! The other tried to stab Uhtred with another strangely blackiron saber weapon but his attack bounced off the dwarfs armor. Then the slaver dwarf raced out of the silence as his blade cut into Tirion twice, leaving deep gashes as the cleric tried to avoid the most telling affects!!!

The orc creates his pack blade (re-reading, pretty sure there is no V components, he just wills it into existence), attack Uhtread Attack, damage if he hits: 1D20+4 = [1]+4 = 5; 1D8+2 = [7]+2 = 9, nope missed The Drow Guards react, all four move toward the top spaces of the room to stand between the heroes and the drow female. Three of them draw this hand crossbows and shot at Tirion and one draws his rapier and stabs at Uhtred. First crossbows Attack and damage if it hits: 1D20+6 = [16]+6 = 22; 1D6+3 = [4]+3 = 7 1D20+6 = [17]+6 = 23; 1D6+3 = [1]+3 = 4 1D20+6 = [5]+6 = 11; 1D6+3 = [4]+3 = 7, the first two hit, the last missed. Tirion takes 11 points of damage (bring him down to 28) and needs to make two DC 10 Concentration checks to maintain the silence. He also needs to make two DC 13 Constitution saves vs. Poison or gain the ‘Poisoned Condition’ for one hour (has disadvantage on Attacks and Ability check rolls). If you fail either Constitution save by 5 (your total is 8 or less) you instead fall unconscious for one hour. The last one stabs at Uhtred Attack and damage if it hits: 1D20+6 = [5]+6 = 11; 1D8+3 = [3]+3 = 6, but that is a miss. Ohln charged forward and makes two attacks against Tirion, Attacks and damage if he hits: 1D20+9 = [17]+9 = 26; 1D12+6 = [3]+6 = 9 1D20+9 = [17]+9 = 26; 1D12+6 = [4]+6 = 10, ow. Tirion took another 19 damage (bring him down to 9 HP) and needs to make two additional DC 10 Concentration checks (remember if you have the poisoned condition it will apply to these checks not the first ones).[/sblock] [sblock=Conditions]Kelvyn -HP 33/33 Levanna -HP 38/38 Quellathe -HP 46/46 Tirion -HP 9/39 Uhtred -HP 64/64 Ohlm -HP 79/89 Orc Interpreter -HP 8/24 Drow Witch -HP 24/24 Drow Guard #1 -HP 23/23 Drow Guard #2 -HP 23/23 Drow Guard #3 -HP 23/23 Drow Guard #4 -HP 23/23[/sblock] Positions Kelvyn is just ‘above’ the entryway door, inside the room Levanna is just below the entryway door, just outside the room Quellathe is just above the entryway door, just outside the room Tirion is just inside the doorway, blocking the exist.

Uhtred,
Champion 6

Uhtred sees Tirion in trouble again taking the brunt of the enemy attack. There was not much to do about that now. Keeping his focus on the Orc he swings his own axe. Catching him with one solid blow.

Uhtred Attack: 1D20+7 = [9]+7 = 16
1D20+7 = [4]+7 = 11

Uhtred Damage: 1D12+4 = [12]+4 = 16

Tirion Cayde, Cleric Level 6 (Life)
Where: Port Fury/Beneath the Temple
When: 3.5/Morning
Round 2

[sblock=OOC]With a 20’ radius, the Silence should encompass the whole room, but Tirion is trying to keep outside the room clear for Levanna and Quellathe to cast.[/sblock]

Concentration save: 1D20+1 = [11]+1 = 12
1D20+1 = [20]+1 = 21

Tirion silently grunted as the drow crossbow bolts found chinks in his plate armor, but he maintained his spell. He felt the burn of poison in his blood, though.

Constitution saves: 1D20+1 = [15]+1 = 16
1D20+1 = [3]+1 = 4

Tirion blinked, his vision becoming blurry even as he saw the armored dwarf rushing toward him as the world turned black.

Tirion’s armored form clattered to the stonework as sound suddenly rushed back into the room.

[sblock=OOC]Ouch. Not good… Do I still take the attack from Olhn if technically I was unconscious after the drow’s turn and before the dwarf’s?[/sblock]

Quellathe moved back into the doorway and shot two more arrows toward the Drow female, but both miss her. As she ducks back to cover, she curses in Elvish.

[GreenKarl]

OOC: Ouch. Not good… Do I still take the attack from Olhn if technically I was unconscious after the drow’s turn and before the dwarf’s

OOC: GM: Yes sorry I think it would just be easier to say that the poison takes affect at the end of the round for this type of situations. I assumed that your Silence affected everyone in the room and that you were at the very edge of it so that you could cast spells also if you wanted, and anyone outside also could cast spells. But it is a concentration effect so it goes down now yes?

 

[BlueLotus]

[section]"No!" Levanna gasped as Tirion fell. She snapped her head back from the opening and flattened against the wall. They were outnumbered and perhaps outmatched. She painfully crushed the thought of fleeing. Then another thought struck her. A tactic once used upon her family, long ago.

She whirled back into the doorframe, fixed the drow's leader with an angry gaze, and shouted "What treachery is this?! You use lethal force on us! We had a deal!"

Then, to the dwarf, she continued "They would take us all! We have a common enemy now!" with words laced with arcane magic.
[/section]

[sblock=actions]Big gamble here! Levanna will cast Suggestion on the dwarf. She's trying to get them to attack the drow. Will save vs DC 15, assuming what Levanna is saying sounds reasonable to him. If not, no effect.

I'm hoping that since the drow have not suffered any serious harm from the party (yet) that it's believable that they did in fact have some sort of a deal.

Also, Levanna will use her reaction to cast Counterspell if any hostile spell is cast at the party. Or she'll cast Shield from her Ring of Spell Storing if any physical attacks come her way and beat her AC[/sblock]
