D&D 5E Sample adventure to test 5E in high level (15th) play. Any takers?

[Asisreo]

Oh, sorry. I'm going to shield so the first attack misses. Bartholomew takes 30 damage from the second hit.

 

[Asisreo]

Fixed.

 

[Mort]

Hey man its cool; you were trying to save the Sorcerers bacon!

Just waiting on any reactions from the Sorcerer or Cleric before I proceed with the Dragon (ouch).

AND to add insult to injury (mostly mine) I can't endure elements because I just used my reaction! Altruism sucks.

The Peace Paladin looks sternly in your direction...

Now for the ouchy bit.

Crimsontides head pivots and he grins a toothy smile and then he breathes flames upwards at the Bard, Sorcerer and Fighter (who are all midair) missing the Rogue and the Cleric.

37 Points of Fire damage. DC 17 Dex saves for half. Dont forget your d4's.

Only the Cleric has a reaction left at this stage to help any of you, and he's badly wounded.

 

[Asisreo]

[4]+(d4=3)+4 (if in paladin's aura; +5) = ugh... 11 (16 in aura, really wished I had rolled 1 higher).

I have fire resistance, though, so I take half

18 fire damage puts me at 42 HP.

Roll: 12
Bonus: 8

So: 25

I teleported to 5 feet of the cleric to take the hit earlier if that'd make any difference.

1d20 (15) + 11 = 26

I want to use Emboldening Bond in reaction to the Bard taking 30 damage. Bondception, if you will.

Ah yes so you did, you're out of the AOE.

Whats your HP total if you do?

 

[Flamestrike]

So you want to teleport after the Bard teleports (and before he takes damage), taking the damage yourself.

It's permissible rules wise, and I know due to the forum we're doing the adventure in I need to be flexible with delays in reading and posting, but I cant help but shake the feeling that you're only taking the damage because you now know he failed his Con save (which happened after taking the damage).

@Seramus would you have interrupted the Bard and taken the Hit before he rolled his Con save if we were at the table (i.e before he took the damage)?
