D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

[FitzTheRuke]

It was an easy enough task for Vairar to pry open the door with his magic pike. The door was old, warped and heavy, but Vairar was strong enough and had leverage. Unfortunately, a split second after the door opened quietly, there came a tumbling of objects from above - brass pots, iron pans, and steel utensils scattered on the stone floor in a loud crash. They were followed by a spiked ball on a chain that swung down from a rafter above and out the door into the little space outside.

OOC: I believe that Helgrim and obviously Vairar are there. I need a dc12 DEX save from each to avoid 5 bludgeoning & 4 piercing damage.

The revealed room was dark and contained the remains of three wooden tubs with matching washing boards. A few buckets, brooms, dirty rags, and other ruined housekeeping item lay on old oak tables and shelves. A rusted iron cauldron hung from a hook over a dusty unlit fireplace. To the east, a stairway lead up to the second floor.

Outside, Lionel was now more certain that he saw movement behind the cracks in the shutters on the second floor. No alarm was sounded, but through the floorboards in the lower room could be heard the sound of furniture being dragged about above.

Helgrim curses as he hears the racket behind him, and turns around in time to be hit by a number of pans, pots and knives.

"Asjemenou," he starts his tirade in Dwarvish before realizing it was the elf who healed him not long ago, and also his cursing may increase the chances of attracting those hyenas.

"Get ready fer those beasties, lads," he warns his companions in a whisper. He has already got his shield and axe at the ready, but now his eyes are scanning the area, preparing for an attack.

OOC: Dex save: 1D20 = [6] = 6 (fail) Which means I take that 9 damage. Helgrim AC19 HP 35/58 HD 3/6 PP11* SDdc15 3/5d8

Tommi watches, and (so far) does not see any response from the worgs.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

For a moment, it looked like the giant hyenas had not noticed, but then one came wandering around the corner of the stables. It appeared to be in no hurry, or perhaps it was being cautious. It sniffed at the air as it came.

OOC: If Tommi makes a dc17 stealth check, it won't notice him.

 

[Kobold Stew]

OOC: Stealth vs DC 17, 1d20+8=13. FAIL

The warg and Tommi lock eyes, and he knows the gig is up. He releases the stone in his sling, Oh-Six rises and flies by, distracting the creature with an electric bolt, and the stone heads straight for the creature's eyes.

Tommi holds his ground, moving forward to stop the creature going past and seeing his companions. "You can run," he whispers under his breath at the creature, as he loads a second stone.

OOC: Sling: 1d20+7=16 (hit?) Damage = 4d6+4=15 magical bludgeoning. Oh-Six Shocking Grasp: 1d20+5=20 (hit) Damage=1d8=8 lightning, no reactions until next round. Magicc stones used: 1/3.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

OOC: Well, that sounds like Round One to me. If you don't like where I've positioned you, just tell me where you start from when you take your turn (and where you go).

[Prickly Pear]

Lionel is jumping from one foot to another, not sure which way to go.

"C'mon lad," Grottur told Tommi, "We shood retreat t'the others. Nae reason to get yerself eaten. Th'door is open now, we can slip in an' lock the beasties oot."

As he said this, he loaded his crossbow, stepped beside Tommi, and fired it at the hyena worg that was bearing down on them. Tommi struck the same creature in the nose with a stone, and Oh-Six electrocuted it. Just before it reached Tommi, it died of its wounds and slid to a stop near his feet.

Another one circled the trees at a run, working its way toward them. Grottur pulled on Tommi's shoulder and began to work his way toward the others.

OOC: Tommi, Grottur, and Oh-Six killed Worg4. Worg3 dashed.

[MetaVoid]

Vairar turns and sets his pike against the wall. Woe be to anyone unfortunate enough to get impaled.
