Benny watches in horror as the zombies approach and attack all these innocents. He signals for the children to hurry up and focuses a beam of arcane energy at the closest standing zombie threatening a peasant.

Maximilian helps finishing off the remaining zombie impeding the path to safety.

OOC: Benny action, cast eldritch blast, attack 25 (nat 20 - woot woot - crit!!!), damage 10 force + 3 crit = 13 force damage move: 30 ft closer to the gates Maximilian, help action to finish off the zombie @Snarf Zagyg , you'll have advantage Move: if the zombie falls, he'll fly back to Benny

The Zombie drops to the ground, a giant hole in its chest.

Both Benny and Havoc clear the gate. Havoc lays his patient down next to a monk who is trying to push the massive door shut.

The way through the gates is open but now the horde closes on the helpless crowd as they try to flee. They are on the verge of panicking, bigger people pushing smaller ones forward, running them over as they push towards the gates. No matter what, people in the back will be cut down unless someone holds them off.

You see the Unholy remains of the priest stand and hover above the two knights and shoot a green ray from its finger, killing one man instantly. The last knight, much younger than the rest, looks back to flee but two zombies are cutting off his escape.

What do you do?

Spoiler: Ooc

Benny can clear the gate.

So can Havoc with his helpless casualty

@Kobold Stew I feel like Anson should make another attempt to keep the crowd from losing control. Otherwise people panic and start trampling others. DC 13 use an appropriate social skill/stat.

No matter what happens, the last people will get cut down by zombies unless you hold them off.

There’s also a chance to save the last Knight if you want but he’s preoccupying the Undead Priest.

You can all just choose to clear the gate if you want

 

[Kobold Stew]

As Anson leads as many as he can towards theshutting gates, he becomes frustrated at the stragglers. "If you don't go to that gate right, I'm going to kill you myself!" he threatens. His face is red, his fist is blazing, his saffron cloak adds to his stature and his size. "Move! Now!"

OOC: Intimidation: 1d20+4=21. woo hoo.

What do you do?

OOC: is this a new round and could Maximilian (40 ft fly) reach the young knight?

Max didn’t use his action since Benny killed the zombie. So instead of moving back to Benny, he can reach the Knight.
