[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 6990561, member: 20323"] [GM] Well [MENTION=6672752]Aramalian[/MENTION] in the Witcher setting monsters generally have resistance to damage from non-magical non-silver weapons. While Fergus is a witcher, he’d earlier dropped his silver sword during combat due to a critical failure (natural 1), so he’s fighting with his steel sword, which Drowner #3 resists damage against, so it’s still alive…so your attack is still completely valid and will slay it. [MENTION=93196]Axel[/MENTION] Take your opportunity attack with disadvantage before anyone else goes; whether or not you kill Drowner #2 will affect whether it gets to attack Elora. Also [MENTION=2820]Fenris[/MENTION] Take your pportunity attack with disadvantage against Drowner #5 before anyone else goes. [MENTION=4936]Shayuri[/MENTION] make a DC 12 Con save to continue concentrating on [i]witch bolt[/i]. [/GM] Foul teeth clenched on Kynee’s boot, the drowner scampers around the cat witcher’s weaving blade, attempting to reach more succulent easier prey inside the ruined cottage. (provokes an opportunity attack, but your opportunity attack has disadvantage due to its Agile Withdrawal trait) Ice momentarily covers the tree litter and a far wall as Elora’s icy blast goes wide. Her voice attracts more than just allies, however; another drowner appears from the northern clearing, sniffing at the fallen corpse of one of its kind and hissing into the night air. Black ichor and bits of putrid flesh tear away from the drowner nearest to Talashia as the intense blue-white crackling bolt of electricity flenses its skin from its bones, boring right through the monster. However, it continues lunging forward in mindless hunger, its nictating membranes momentarily seeing through the sorceress’ illusion. It rakes its claws down Talashia’s arm instinctively raised to defend herself, tearing through cloth and flesh. (5 damage, DC 12 Con save to concentrate) Steel is not silver, and Fergus remembers that lesson well as he hews into the frothing drowner gnashing at him against his shield. However, with his silver weapon several paces away he makes do with what he has, black ichor flinging against the other drowner’s face as he disembowels the one on top of him. The dwarf Barakor’s sudden appearance from the western trail into Lower Posada is accompanied by a burst of ichor as his ancestral weapon pulverizes the drowner’s head down to its ribcage, leaving the grotesque remnants flailing blindly before collapsing, sliding off Fergus’ shield to the cold forest floor. Scampering away from the armored dwarf, the last of the drowners circles to attack from Fergus’ flank, but the witcher is able to whirl and deliver a parrying punch with his gauntlet. Rolling with Fergus’ parry, the drowner attempts to scamper away from him.
