Before beginning their rest, Dave takes a quick cool-down lap around the room and catches his Second Wind
During the rest he expends both his Hit Dice, fully recovering from all damage.
Lebris wicll use a hit die
Now, where to? All is quiet, maybe too quiet? You really have no way of knowing.
"During the rest Dave expends A SINGLE Hit Die, fully recovering from all damage."
Resting Hit Die: 2d10 ⇒ (6+3) = 9
After a peaceful hour (which seemed much more like 5 hours of vigorous activity with a maiden two-and-a-half decades his junior), Dave is prepared for adventure!
Invigorated, Dave strides confidently out the door, then North and through the door whence burst the twig blight and skeletons.
Dave decides to venture forth on his own, the party slowly follows.
Much like the previous room, nodules of luminescent fungus hang from the ceiling and walls and grow in clumps on the flagstone floor. The light illuminates portions of grand bas-relief carvings on the stone walls that aren’t covered with the fungus. The carvings depict dragons in various stages of raining fire down upon terrified people. Soil and compost cover half the chamber’s floor, which allows a variety of feeble plants to grow. A bench containing simple gardening implements stands along the east wall.
Two doors are present in this room, one in the north wall, the other to the east.
Lebris will move up to the intersection and wait for Dave to move through a door he likes
Proceeding in an orderly fashion, Dave moves through the Eastern door.
Dave finds more of the same, at least this time there is no creature to attack the party.
Next door?
Dave proceeds at the elf's behest.
More of the same is found in this chamber as well. Another door is in this area, located in the southwest wall.
Lebris will move towards the door in the SW corner. Dave seems to have gotten away with it, Lebris thinks better of it and waits for Dave.
Dave cheerfully complies.
A 10' wide hallway soon opens up into a chamber of some type. This room is not like the rooms you've discovered previously. No light sources are in the area, only those you bring with you.
Lebris follows, and slides up against the wall.
Attempt to hide:
I've moved just inside the door just past Dave
Dave moves around the corner.
Trying to follow these two guys into the room (but behind them).
Dragon-carved granite blocks line this chamber’s walls and ceiling, though many are crumbled and broken, leaving stony debris on the floor. A huge marble statue of a rearing red dragon stands in the curve of the western wall. The eye sockets of the dragon are empty, but a red glow lingers there, providing reddish light throughout the chamber. The radiance casts an inky shadow behind the statue’s wide wings. A five-foot-diameter, circular tile of dark stone is set in the floor in front of the dragon statue. Runes are carved around the circular tile’s inner edge.
Can anyone read or speak draconic or if not draconic, then interpret these runes?
You mean, will anyone stand on the dark circular tile, which is presumably the only place close enough to the hollow, glowing eyesocktets of the dragon statue, and then read the runes aloud in the mystic language of dragons? Dave asks warily...
I didn't say it quite that way.... but Dave if, you're willing, I'm sure we'll put something nice on your memorial. If we get out of here. But yeah I guess so
As the party discusses their intentions... nothing happens. Yet.
Dave shrugs, resigned to his task, as he shuffles toward the statue.
He stands upon the tile and reads the runes thereon.
Dave, Wait. I'll do it. I just can't read the runes. You're better to protect us, if I become something fearsome. You just read the runes
I dont fit in the square.
Dave nods and stops short of the tile.
Once Lebris is in place, Dave begins to read the runes aloud... in an ominous voice!
Viewed in white light, the circular tile is red. The runes on the tile’s inner edge read, in Draconic, “Let the sorcerous power illuminate my spirit.”
COME OUT OR BE SLAIN!
As Dave calls out his detected enemy, a dark exaggeration of some type of humanoid shadow leaps from behind the statue and tries to assault the fighter!
Lebris reacts before the mysterious being!
Morgran, old friend!! This creature of shadow is vulnerable to the brilliant radiance of your sacred flame!!"
I can't see the bad guy on roll 20 to know where he is. If i'm in melee, I''ll stick it with the rapier , if i'm away then I'll shoot it with the bow
I'll use my bonus actin to disengage if needed and back into the corner, where I still have a shot
Sorry, i thought it had come out to attack Dave already.
Lebris will move back towards the door and wait for it to come out.
Lebris decides to back away, allowing the creature to continue its assault on the fighter!
The attack fails as the party is aware of its presence!
Lebris will use his bonus action to disengage and back up 5 feet and shoot it the bow.
Attack previous was a
14 vs. AC
6 dmg with +6 sneak dmg.
Rushing forwards and trying to "enlighten" the Shadow.
Sacret flame Dex save 13
If I cut a flat creature in TWO, does that make FOUR dimensions, or just ONE??
The shadow manages to avoid the deadly spell as both arrow and blade strike the creature! However, the enemy seems to have been able to handle the damage better than the party would have hoped.
Feyce moves 25 feet to where he can see the foe, then throws a for
Hah! Take [half of] that!
Feyce then uses his remaining 5 feet of movement to cower stand boldly behind the radiant cleric guy.
Feyce strikes the enemy with a magiccal bolt, bringing it to within inches of elimination! As a last gasp the thing lashes out at the fighter...
... to no avail.
The party then thrashes the shadow.
Should we try the circle again
Lebris move to the circle
Dave once again reads the runes aloud...
Lebris moves into the circle and watches as Dave reads the runes out loud once more... and nothing happens.
the reader might have to be in the circle, if something is supposed to happen.
Lebris vacates the circle
Dave sighs loudly and steps into the circle.
Go ahead and toss the room, while I immolate myself here...
Dave, for a third time, reads the runes aloud...
