D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

[FitzTheRuke]

Escella's eldritch bolts flew past Vairar and the others as they made their way up the stairs to help Lunn. Escella's control was great, even in the short time she'd had these strange magical powers, and she arched the bolts so they nearly cork-screwed around her allies and over the stair's railing, striking the feral gnoll who roared in pain and frustration.

OOC: Yup. 22 damage from Escella to Flind.

 

[MetaVoid]

"Lunn, when I hit it, fall back! Let it come through the sheet lighting!"
Vairar calls out murmuring as he goes to himself "Frigging barbarians, uncontrollable f...tactics into the wind."
before coming behind the orc and stabbing into the creature.
"Do you think this one will transform too?!"

"Hold on, Lunn, goddess is with us." the words of encouragment are laced with healing magic that undo some of the damage.

Spoiler: Actions

Move: behind Lunn, trying to stay at reach and still leave space for others to get up
Action: Attack vs flind; damage; booming damage: 1d20+6 = [13]+6 = 19; 1d10+3+1d8 = [3]+3+[5] = 11; 2d8 = [4,7] = 11

Vairar moved up the stairs, climbing over the fallen bodies of two gnolls. He thrust his pike between two balcony rails (shattering them) and got the feral gnoll in the legs, who howled as if the pain was exciting to him.

OOC: Vairar did 11 & healed Lunn for 5.

 

[Kobold Stew]

On the ground floor, Tommi sees the fight on the staircase, but is unable to target the flind-like beast at the top of the stairs.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

OOC: @JustinCase & dare-I-ask @Prickly Pear, either of you two around to get this round rolled?

 

[TaranTheWanderer]

From a safe distance, Morgan peers up the stairs trying to see what is going on…

 

[FitzTheRuke]

With nothing more to be done in the lodge's great hall, the dwarves Helgrim and Grottur moved up the stairs as fast as their short legs could take them. Lionel was faster, pushing past them as they got to the top, breathing hard. The halfling crouched low under a boarded window on the landing and made note of the gnoll struggling in the sticky webs across the room.

OOC: Okay, moving on... they all dash.

"What was your name?" Escella says to Dr. Wells. "Don't go outside, there could be more gnolls and there are definitely stray worgs out there." She moves to the bottom of the stairs so she can see a piece of the flind at the top of the stairs. Zap, Zap. On blast his the flind. He seems only a bit annoyed by it.

OOC: EB against Flind: 1D20+8 = [1]+8 = 9 (miss) 1D10+3 = [8]+3 = 11 1D20+8 = [10]+8 = 18 (hit) 1D10+3 = [2]+3 = 5

"My name is Morgan. I used to be a student of a wizard named Delfin...from Daggerford.

"Don't go outside, there could be more gnolls and there are definitely stray worgs out there."

looking back at the door with frustration, he responds, "Normally, I could magically lock the doors but I need my spellbook." As if remembering something, We shouldn't kill the Thayan Wizard! He has information we need."

He notices the action happening upstairs and moves in to help. With a word of magic, a ghostly hand appears and attempts to strangle the gnoll.

Spoiler: OOC

I'll try chill touch again. Moving to BY38 (on upstairs diagram)
chill touch: 1D20+7 = [18]+7 = 25
Damage: damage: 2D8 = [1, 6] = 7
Enemy cannot heal this turn.

 

[MetaVoid]

Vairar tries to stab at the gnoll again, but two dwarves jostle him in their haste to get to the enemy. His stab misses, the energy on his spear dissipates and his tolerance for the dwarven race plummets.
