D&D 5E (IC) Rise of the Dracolich

[Prickly Pear]

Sesto opened his eyes as soon as the powerful liquid entered his throat. Kalorn entered his view, poured another potion down Sesto's throat and shouted something about getting up. That sounded like a good idea so he stood up on trembly legs and looked around. Kalorn and Lorenn seemed in good shape, the berserker and Oggsbruff, not so good. The others he couldn't see. Sesto didn't feel very good either.
Sesto decided to call upon Lathander's healing powers yet again, this time for himself. No good to others if I'm dead. He was momentarily surrounded by a shimmering light and cuts and bruises disappeared leaving a him with a warm feeling.
Where is the dragon, he asked Kalorn and Lorenn. We need to find shelter!
Sesto start moving in the direction Lorenn pointed, carefully avoiding the drop on the ground, and called in his spectral mace closer. As Sesto walked he asked: Oh Great Lathander, Now is the Time to Show Mercy Upon Your Disciple. HELP! but his call went unheard.

OOC: Sesto's light spell is still active and I am assuming Spiritual Weapon is also active. Nothing in the spell description says it disappears when unconscious. DM's fiat apply, of course, but the spectral mace is still on the map so let's go with it! Sesto cast Cure Wounds at 4th level; Cure wounds on self (4th level) with Disciple of Life: 4D8+5+2+4 = [8, 6, 4, 5]+5+2+4 = 34. Sesto has now total of 48 HP. Move: 15' to stand up and 15' south to AI35. Moving spectral mace to AD38 Just for fun: Calling for Divine Intervention: 1D100 = [11] = 11

 

[tglassy]

OOC: Yeah, Spiritual Weapon isn’t Concentration, so it should still be up.

Having spent so much effort reaching Sesto, Kalorn was a bit ... irked that Lorenn had appeared out of nowhere to deliver a potion, beating him to the punch. He could feel his reserves slowly depleting, and all he had accomplished was a few glancing bolts at the dragon.

He pointed south and said "The drake went that way, I can't see it, I can't get to it. Spread out and beware its ice!"

He looked around and noted Alhana and lokaftd struggling against a skragg. An archer would serve much better against a dragon than a swordsman... perhaps this was where he needed to be.

He started making his way east again, moving away from the others, hoping it was the right decision. He raised his left and and once more, bolts of smoking darkness hurled forth.

(OOC: I'm doing this because I presume that Kalorn can't reach it on foot in a single round so he's moving and blasting. if this is incorrect please let me know)

(Eldritch blast)
2 eldrich blasts in the back of SKrag 1: 1D20+7 = [4]+7 = 11

OOC: FFS... I don't imagine I get advantage for shooting it in the back? Maybe it will distract it at least...

Moving from Eastern Lair to Western Lair (Slowly!)

In slow-motion, the frozen, undead trolls rushed down the crevasse toward the western lair. In slow pursuit, and pushing and shoving for the best spot, followed the troll brothers shouting "Eeeeyyyee ggoodddeemm!" in a deep, slow version of the trollish giant-tongue. Finally, they both scratched at the back of the creature that had once been their uncle, and they brought it down, slowly tearing at the frozen flesh.

Western Lair

Sesto climbed to his feet. He wasn't sure how long he'd been out, but things seemed to have been pure chaos, and much was still. Lorenn flew over his head on his flying board and dropped a potion to one of his summoned berserkers, who gratefully drank it. Then, the bladedancer fired a bolt of flame past Sesto, just missing a frozen troll that loomed out of the darkness, rushing toward him.

Sesto shuffled away, still getting his bearings. Suddenly Primus appeared within the light of Sesto's glowing shield and appeared to be focused on something far away, as if he was reaching out his senses to find the dragon. This recalled Sesto to the task at hand, as Lorenn's flaming sphere rolled past them, lighting up a berserker who was climbing up onto the ice-shelf toward another frozen troll, shrouded in mists. The sound of stomping feet and scraping claws indicated that these undead creatures were coming from all directions to defend their master.

Primus, for his part, had not found the dracolich, but he found signs that it was nearby. He watched as Lorenn's familiar eko, who was also searching for the dragon, was killed by an explosion of ice. Then, a wall of ice formed along the end of the ice-ridge that ran across the lair. Perhaps the dracolich was building itself a protective wall while it waited to replenish the energy that created it's terrible breath.

Mord moved along the ice-ridge and fired eldritch energy into the hazy, shrouded scrum. His troll skeletons tore at the cultist leader as the tall catfolk swung his icy blade, striking a troll skeleton, and also the sergeant of the troll squad. The cult-leader looked winded, but he kept on, and his smaller, human minions swarmed in. One hacked a skeleton apart, and its bones scattered to the floor. That cultist climbed over the large bones and stabbed at the other skeleton. Mord knew that his minions would not last long.

Another cultist got in on Sargloth - when the troll raised his shield to block Arrufel's sword, the shorter cultist lunged in and stabbed the troll in the ribs. The troll was on fire, and his flesh bubbled where normally it would have sealed the wounds.

Blurcho bellowed, both in frustration and a more than a little fear, in giant: "Put me out! Put me out! Throw snow at me or somethin!" He then tried to relieve his frustration by clawing at the injured dragonfang/dragonwing

Loklafd lit two torches and he swung them in the face of an undead troll. The troll batted at them with its claws, distracted, while one of Lorenn's berserkers hacked at the creature from the other side. Kalorn stumped along through Sesto's light, coming upon Primus, where they began to hatch a proper battle plan. This had not been going well so far, and it was past time to change the momentum of the battle toward the favour of Imani's Agents.

Kalorn sent a blast of energy from his sword that further distracted the undead troll while Oggsbruff climbed up on the cliff and tore the thing in half with a roar. Alhana took that opportunity to climb back up onto the higher shelf, where her superior vantage allowed her to send two arrows, solid and true, into the undead troll that was moving in on Sesto.

Back on the ice-shelf from where Primus had disappeared, the undead troll there was sniffing around for the now-missing mystic, when one of Lorenn's berserkers foolishly leaped out and buried two hand-axes into the creature. Unfortunately for the northman, the frozen troll ignored the axes long enough to lift him up by the arms, then bite his head off his shoulders. Then it threw the body aside and climbed down to continue its search for Primus.

Blurcho asked another troll to put his fire out as he reached for the less-threatening of two cultists and clawed and chewed the man to death. He liked the way the bones crunched in his teeth.

"Pud yerself oud!" answered the Troll at first, "Eyem buzzy! Awwww... fyne!"

The troll tore a chunk of ice out of the shelf beside them and crushed it in his fists as a cultist stabbed him twice in the back. The troll ignored the sword-wounds and crushed the ice in his fists, patting it on Blurcho's burning back. The troll held still and sighed as the crushed ice soothed his bubbling flesh. Then the cultist that was above him on the higher shelf hacked at his face with a sword, putting out one of his eyes, and Blurcho snapped back to attention as the eye began to grow back.

Another troll climbed up on that higher shelf and mauled the cultist, who found himself now between three very large trolls, injured but alive for the time being.

The skragg began to turn as it was wounded by the barbarian. Unfortunately for it, that was a mistake and seeing his opportunity, Loklafd struck, thrusting both torches into the creatures unprotected flank.

Blurcho let outh a deep sigh. "aaaah, that's so much better. Next time you're on fire I'll put you out! Now go put out that other guy!"

It came out mangled of course, as he was also busily chewing that chunk of cultist. His mom had always admonished him to eat well after regenerating. Well, time to eat more cultists!

Blurcho smiled as he swallowed another gulp and felt his healing start again. It was so good! He didn't know how humans did without it. No wonder they were so grumpy.

 

[Prickly Pear]

Oodnadatta felt good. Finally Uncle Boogey was put to rest. Hopefully. Must stop all neckermunchers!
Oodnadatta suddenly heard another skragg approaching. He didn't recognise this one but he better put a stop to it.
Oodnadatta felt slow and useless but instead of running, he decided to break off a chunk of ice and throw it at the oncoming skragg. Slow and useless!

Sesto heard heavy steps behind him. He stopped and a skragg came into his circle of light. It looks injured or should I say 'damaged', Sesto mused amongst the chaos surrounding him.
Sesto moved his spectral mace and took a swipe at the skragg. He then pointed and the air around the skragg filled with the deathly toll of a bell that only the skragg could hear. Sesto continued on his way south towards where the dragon might be.

Alhana could see Sesto in the light and also the skragg that entered the outskirts of the light circle. She quickly fired a couple of arrows towards the skragg before Sesto moved on.
I'm not feeling so well, Alhana thought. I should've invested in some of those healing potions... but no, I decided to keep the gold. What good is the gold doing me now, eh!
Alhana decided to jump off the ice shelf and take cover.

The cultist was at about the edge of his sight now, but Mord's eyes were particularly good at seeing in the darkness and he was able to pick out his target even now. Launching another pair of bolts he smiled to himself as he watched them strike hard. Then he ordered his remaining skeletal minion to follow as he mived farther down the ridge that he was on.

Eastern Lair

Blurcho chomped at a cultist and told a troll to put out the Sarge. That troll marched away, heedless of the cultists around him, who only got minor wounds on him in their surprise. Mord struck solid blows with his eldritch blasts on the cult-leader Arrufel, and the large catfolk pulled back as Mord's troll wandered toward its master.

This left Sargloth to take the brunt of the cultists' assault. The one on the ridge punctured the armored troll with arrows, and two others surrounded him and beat him down with their swords. The troll sergeant would have died for sure, if it weren't that the other troll shoved his way into the fray and put the fire out with some crushed ice. Sargloth lay on the ground, but his flesh began to knit itself back together.

Meanwhile, another troll grabbed at the cultist that Blurcho was munching on, and pulled half of the human free of the other troll's jaws, munching on the half of his own. It was a grizzly picture, but the trolls liked it that way.

Mord took the opportunity to move away from the battle, working his way westward to see how his allies were faring against the dracolich.

Primus' psychic eye floated over the ridge that bisected the lair, and he could see the dragon in its dark, mist-shrouded shadow. The old bones scraped along the ice as the undead creature slowly built a protective fort for itself - a sanctuary of ice - that gave it protection while it waited for its magical energies to build, so it could once more unleash its icy breath.

Around him, his allies began to gather as they defended themselves from the Dracolich's drowned-troll minions, who came from all sides.

OOC: Okay I did this post quick because people seem to be waiting to see if the eye can find the dragon. @tglassy, some of them will be done their turns this round, but Primus can see Oggsbruff, leaping back off the ledge to go after the Skragg that Sesto's mace is smacking. Sesto has moved past him, but he's lit by his shield. Kalorn is there. Both berserkers are nearby, and Loklafd, after burning the Skragg (finishing him off) can come around the ice-shelf, his torches will light up Alhana above him - so Primus can see them as well. That pretty much just leaves Lorenn out, who can get wherever on his own. Are there any distance limits, or just sight? I assume you need to wait until the round rolls to teleport, though, and the dragon still has a turn this round... so things might still change. Who still has to go? @Ancalagon Kalorn and Lorenn (and some NPCs) and I have to resolve everyone... oh, and @tglassy you can post for Oogabooga if you like.

OOC: I have to be able to see them and they need to be within 60 ft. I can teleport them to a spot I can see within one mile. Question, is the dragon walking himself off in an area where it wouldn’t be able to easily escape if we all teleported next to it? Is there a floor under it, or is it in the air?
