D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

[FitzTheRuke]

With a loud crack, the wooden bar broke as Lunn, Grottur, and Helgrim burst into the lodge's entry hall. The two gnolls inside leaped on them immediately, biting and hacking.

OOC: Door is open! GG1 missed Lunn; GG2 did 11 to Helgrim. Be back for Escella's turn.

Spoiler: Rolls

GG1 vs Lunn; Bite: 1D20+4 = [1]+4 = 5

OOC: Door is open! G1 missed Lunn; G2 did 11 to Helgrim. Be back for Escella's turn.

And for Lionel's turn too...?

 

[FitzTheRuke]

And for Lionel's turn too...?

OOC: Of course! Oh, and I think I need @MetaVoid Vairar to roll the round.

 

[MetaVoid]

Vairar moves back toward the door and attacks the gnoll closest to him, spiking it fully through and leaving it sheathed in potential energy preventing it from moving lest it dies on the spot.

Spoiler: Actions

Move: T 35
Action: (attack gnoll at U37) Booming pike vs gnoll 1; damage; boom damage: 1d20+6=[16]+6 = 22; 1d10+3+1d8 = [5]+3+[8] = 16; 2d8 = [7,5]=12

Escella came up to the corner and peeked around it, with Lionel at her side. She fired an eldritch bolt at the hyena-worg, but the creature hightailed it, diving around the corner as he spell zipped past. She looked for the gnoll she had struck earlier, but he was out of sight, so she fired another bolt at one that was hiding behind a tree, singing it.

Lionel spotted the same gnoll, and he fired his crossbow as it fired a longbow back at them. The gnoll was struck injured, and it ducked out of sight behind the walls of the lodge. Its arrow struck harmlessly off of the stonework at the corner as Lionel and Escella took cover.

Vairar moved through the front doors, and he thrust his pike into a gnoll guard, driving him away from attacking Lunn. The gnoll pushed forward, and Vairar's magic energy exploded, dropping the gnoll to the ground.

Back outside, three gnolls began to charge forward through the gap between the two buildings, going under the second-floor passover. They yipped and hollered as they ran, and the one following began to twist and grow, turning into a large snarling monstrous version of itself.

During all this, the first gnoll (the one that Escella had looked for) had climbed up a tree and onto the roof. Near the Phylund Lith, the cornerstone of the building, it fired a longbow down among the group huddled near the front entrance, but the arrow struck the ground without finding a target.

OOC: Escella did 13 & Lionel did 7 to GA3; Vairar did 16 & 12 to GG1 (killing him).

Spoiler: Rolls

GA1 Bow: 1D20+4 = [4]+4 = 8
GA3 Bow: 1D20+4 = [4]+4 = 8

Lionel observed the approaching gnolls and thought he saw an opening. He took a shot at the closest approaching gnoll and then retreated back to the main doors. I don't want to be caught out here with all the gnolls charging in, he thought to himself. Come, Escella, he called out. Let's get back to the others.

Spoiler: Actions

Bonus Action: Insightful Fighting check: 1D20+7 = [16]+7 = 23 against GA2, who will need to make a Charisma (deception) check. For now, I will assume that a 23 will be successful and Lionel can use Sneak Attack on gnoll GA2.
Action: Crossbow attack, with damage and sneak attack: 1D20+7 = [5]+7 = 12
1D8+4+3D6 = [7]+4+[5, 5, 3] = 24. Miss! If that would have been a hit, it would have been a one-shot kill.
Move: to S35
Reaction: Uncanny Dodge on first attack Lionel can see.

"We don't want to be assaulted on two fronts," Escella says again. She sends two eldritch blasts into the nearest archer (G4). It manages to avoid one of them. She retreats with Lionel inside the door. (V36)

EB against gnoll 4: 1D20+8 = [1]+8 = 9 miss
1D10+3 = [7]+3 = 10
1D20+8 = [16]+8 = 24 hit
1D10+3 = [2]+3 = 5 5 hp of force damage to GA4

 

[Kobold Stew]

Tommi Whistles for Oh-Six, and they both enter the building, squeezing past their comrades and staying out of the way.

OOC: Move, sqeeze, and dash to T37.

 

[MetaVoid]

Vairar moves deeper into the room to make space for still incoming allies. Leaving space next to the gnoll to Lunn, he stabs at the remaining gnoll from afar, still threatening with his booming weapon. Unfortunately, the gnoll followed him with its eyes and as he stabbed it sidestepped, avoiding (if barely) the tip of the weapon.

Spoiler: Actions

Move: W34
Action: Attack vs gnoll 2; damage; booming damage: 1D20+6 = [6]+6 = 12
1D10+3+1D8 = [1]+3+[6] = 10
2D8 = [7,3] = 10
