(OOC) Scourge of Daggerford (Full)

[FitzTheRuke]

Not sure why the orc mobs don't just slaughter us but...

They might try... depends on what happens.

 

[jmucchiello]

Not sure I'm understanding. They are using this portal room as a waypoint I guess? Entering from one of the portals and exiting through the other?

You got it. It's quick access from Thay to... wherever the ruined castle is. This Portal room is (normally) only a 30-foot wide circular room. You'd have to hold it for quite some time to move an army through it. They seem to be ...stretching... the room to move as many troops as they can, quickly. (Having pretty much failed to capture the manor).

 

[MetaVoid]

I have spell slots, and I have healing spells...but I also have silence and hold person which may interrupt the ritual. I'm taking advice. If no one posts before tonight, I'm going with silence
Here are my current prepared spells:
Spells (DC 14) 4 cantrips, 9 prepared, 2/4 2/3 2/3 slots:
Cantrips: Booming blade, Guidance, Mending, Word of radiance, Thaumaturgy
1st: Bless, Healing word, Shield of Faith, Wrathful smite
2nd: Hold Person, Prayer of Healing, Silence
3rd: Aura of Vitality, Spirit Guardians

Spirit Guardians in a small room with hordes orcs would be really good. But ending the ritual is probably also good.

 

[MetaVoid]

Agreed, but it will focus them all on me to interrupt my concentration (ending the ritual that requires concentration can be done through damage of the guardians...but I cannot heal (aura of vitality) after that.
One vote for SG Next!

 

[KahlessNestor]

I would say maybe Silence first, then. If the Horde is ignoring us, leave them be. Pop Spirit Guardians if we end up facing hordes of orcs and not just two.

We need to distrupt the ritual, that way we can fight limited number of the orcs. And also prevent reinforcements on both sides.
Silence first, catch both casters if you can, but the rest of us need to focus on Shalendra too - just in case she manages to move, as many hits and concentration rolls as we can manage

 

[jmucchiello]

Escella is planning to eldritch blast the poor elf with two bolts. Hopefully two con saves. (As if Escella ever hits. She probably needs glasses.)

I meant that you could have healed her while moving up the embiggening tunnel. (There was at least two rounds to do it in). Feel free to throw it in.
