Into the Woods

[jmucchiello]

Terry takes a step into the previous room so she is not standing at the water's edge. (I assume one step through the doorway she can still see most of the battlefield.) She then readies a casting of Toll of Dead against the creature that has disappeared below the surface assuming it resurfaces. (ooc: Wisdom Save DC 15 or 1d12 Damage, Toll of Dead, assuming creature is wounded.: 1D12 = [2] = 2 )

[JustinCase]

Seeing the creature flee into the water, Bimpnott instead focuses his attention on how everyone else is doing. When he sees his friend Albrecht being attacked by a lone skeleton, the firbolg rushes over in order to help him.

Both his sword and his fist miss the undead creature, however, but if he can distract it from his friend, that's a win in Bimpnott's book.

OOC: Move: To the unturned skeleton Attack (shortsword): 1D20+7 = [2]+7 = 9 for 1D6+5 = [5]+5 = 10 slashing damage Bonus action: Extra unarmed attack (Martial Arts): 1D20+7 = [2]+7 = 9 for 1D4+5 = [2]+5 = 7 bludgeoning damage I'm assuming both are misses.

Albrecht is aware that the primary foe has descended under the water. Perhaps it is heading for the sword? he considers, and turns quickly to see the pommel still glistening among the brackish water. He turns back and sees Bipnott approaching, and attempt to hit the skeleton in front of him. He shifts his griop on his axe and swings again.

OOC: To hit: 1d20+6=24, damage= 1d10+4=9 magical slashing. Move towards where the sword was, around the perimeter of the pond.

 

[Neurotic]

Umbil steps away from the pools edge and blocks the way into the house, just in case. He waits tensed, ready for the creature to emerge. Motioning toward the group fighting the skeleton and whispering something, he calls back the echo. The echo stands in the water, blocking easy path to the combatants.

Action: ready attack against anything in range (is that attack action or reaction?)
Move: step diagonally back from the water and toward the house
Bonus: call echo, note that it can make opportunity attacks

OOC: the idea is that he protects Terry while echo blocks direct line to the rest of the group (the creature of course can go around)

Terry retreats and readied her spell, Bimpnott advances to help but is unable to connect with the remaining skeleton. Albrecht has far better luck and disperses the skeleton into scattered bones once again, leaving only the 2 turned. Umbril recalls his shadow, placing it in a likely place near Albrecht and Bimpnott as he, himself readies his attacks should the monster reappear.

Quiet sits over the patio for several long seconds before the creature reappears, exploding out of the water this time next to Umbril! Almost immediately a sonorous bell tolls from nowhere and the creature shudders slightly. Umbril, muscles tensed, lashes out with his scimitar but is unable to connect with the lanky creature. It turns its attentions first to Umbril, again opening its' terrible black maw and he feels a part of his Life Drain away. Then, it bares at least 2 rows of horrible needle-like teeth in a Horrifying Visage at Terry.

OOC: Sorry for delays. Creature is definitely damaged and is more so now, thanks to Toll the Dead from Terry. Umbril's readied action [7]+6=13, miss. Creature attack on umbril: [17]+4=21. HIT, 5 damage Horrifying Visage: The target must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the start of the Creatures next turn.

The creature stares at Terry, its face seems to become even more horrifying. She's seen worse. "What's with the pouty lip?" Terry taunts. "Did we hurt your feelings?"
Wisdom Save DC 15: 1D20+8 = [10]+8 = 18

She repeats the incantation for Toll of the Dead and targets the creature with it.
Toll of Dead, Wis DC 15: 1D12 = [2] = 2 (Did I mention the saving throw before? If not roll it twice now.)

Again, the sonorous bell rings but, this time, seems to have no effect.

OOC: Your d12 sucks

 

[jmucchiello]

OOC: Doesn't it. I should switch to sacred flame.
