D&D 5E (2014) (IC) Vault of the Dracolich (Infiltrators)

[gargoyleking]

Mord smiled darkly at the man transfixed in fear by his true form. He pointed his wand at the man, laying down his Hex and then fired off a pair of bolts, giving the man a chance to clumsily strike at him.

OOC: Provoking an AoO, but he has disadvantage from being frightened. If either bolt hits, +5 Necrotic damage from his transformation on the first hit. (Not looking good for one hit, let alone two.) Eldritch Blast(hex):: 1D20+6 = [8]+6 = 14 1D10+3+1D6 = [1]+3+[1] = 5 1D20+6 = [3]+6 = 9 1D10+3+1D6 = [9]+3+[6] = 18

Squirrels are evil!

OOC: In 5e doing ranged or spell attacks in melee don't provoke ops, but instead give the attacker disadvantage.

Zander

Zander jumped in to help SnorLoska, as the cultist contined to try to necrotically drain the half-orc of his life energies. He stabbed the man just in time, and the cultist let go, stepping back and holding the wound. He looked on his last-legs, but refused to surrender, such was his crazed zeal.

GM: [sblock=rolls]Spell: 1D20+4 = [5]+4 = 9 3D10 = [8, 3, 8] = 19 [/sblock] Gone: (PCs) Zander; (BGs) Acolyte2 Damage Taken: (PCs) None; (BGs) Acolyte2 9

 

[Prickly Pear]

Dazed and slow in his reaction, SnorLoska turned to the relentless cultist that tried to zap him for the second time in short order. SnorLOska swung his shield to break the cultists grip and then with reckless determination slashed and then stabbed the cultist.

OOC: Action: Reckless sword attacks, with damage: 2D20.HIGH(1)+7 = [10, 3]+7 = 17, 1D8+5 = [3]+5 = 8, 2D20.HIGH(1)+7 = [15, 3]+7 = 22, 1D8+5 = [1]+5 = 6 If the cultists dies on first attack (I don't think he will) then move and attack the last cultist, else stay.

Mord & SnorLoska

Mord pointed his want at the terrified cultist and slammed him into the ground with eldritch force. Mord wasn't impressed with his own performance, but it was enough - the cultist lay on the ground, broken and bloody.

SnorLoska shoved the crazed cultist back with his shield and swiftly killed the zealot with two sharp blows of his longsword, hacking the man again even as he fell. Then the half-orc ran over to Mord, but it was too late.

The fight was over.

Terrus dropped the body of the cultist in his hand, letting the darkness take it.

"Can we drop this dark veil? I would like to see the pool they were sorting through."

Mord nodded to Terrus, satisfied that the battle was over with a minimal of casualties. He waved his hand, releasing his hold on the magic of the barrier. Though hisnchange of form continued on. The area had taken on a thin rime of frost and the body and pool were both somewhat frozen over.

"I had hoped to make this a bit easier, but things seem to have turned out well regardless."

His voice seemed to reverberate somewhat as he spoke, and if anyone looked hard enough, they could see thin whisps of dark energy coming from his body. The ethreal wings of bone seemed to move on their own, stretching out as he attempted to work out the soreness from the blast he'd taken.

Then he moved over to the pool, looking at it. "Wonder how this works..."

OOC: Arcana(Int): [roll0] The change lasts for a minute and I don't think he could voluntarily dismiss it if he tried.

Squirrels are evil!

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Mord looked into the scrying pool. The water was murky and appeared to be covered in a sheen of oil.

OOC: The Scourge can dismiss their form as a bonus action.

 

[Prickly Pear]

SnorLoska walked up to the pool but could not see anything but murky liquid. Stupid spell casters...
He proceeded to pick up his darts that lay scattered on the floor. If I ever get out of here with my life intact, I will practice more with these darts...
