Male Half-Elf Bard 4 College of Blades HP 14/29 | AC 14 | Passive Perception 11 I Inspiration 1 |ACP 2 | TCP 2 Current Picture of Bhoors

Bhoors looks down at Elandil singing, "I get knocked down but I get up again."

Healing word: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Bhoors the launches himself at the nearby genasi.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Is there anyway Inspiration can add a knock back component here?

Bhoors, bull rush in 5e (called Shove) is an athletics check in place of an attack to shove 5ft. You just killed him, so it would be a bit sadistic. XD

With the words of encouragement stirring healing magics in the air, Bhoors quickly defends the fallen with a masterful thrust of his rapier. The genasi shrieks in pain, his kidney pierced, and topples down the little hill over and over...tumbling 360 what seems like an un-ordinary amount of times.

Oops, you're right, just the Second Wind then. I forgot to note the Action Surge use.


Female Wood Elf Warlock 5 | HP:27/27 | AC:14 | Init: +3 | Per: 11 | PB: +3 |Inspiration: Yes

But Shal's faerie fire is still in effect, so there is still advantage against the xorn as far as I know.


Wood elf Druid 3 HP:21/21 AC:16 perc: +5, Init: +3 SAVES: Str -1, Dex +3, Con +1, Int +2, Wis +5, Cha +1

Omg, can I reject the healing? Haha

If the cultist could see it, he would see he was right to be unnerved. Elandil's broken body pushes the crystal javelin out and knits the wound back together leaving only a scratch. Taking account of the situation he rises with a grunt and advances toward the floating rock path nodding thanks to his savior. Once in position he weaves together a spell as frost begins to form on the priestess.

Half movement (15ft) to stand the rest to move. Action to cast frostbite on purple. DC 13 con save or have disadvantage on next attack and take cold damage

frostbite: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Oh yeah! I forgot! Can we use my second roll as the faerie fire advantage?


AvernusArt 2Grid

Yep, no problem. I'll mark the xorn on the map so I stop forgetting.


AvernusArt 2Grid

Con vs Elandil: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Elandil's spell unerringly finds the spider climbing priest, the grasp on her glaive begins to thicken with soft white ice, condensing the cavern air in long trails of smoke.

Round 3:
Shal
Robed Cultist, Priest
Cole, Davin, El, Bhoors, Abrel <--UP
Cultists, Xorn
Murss, Dwarves


LOL you called me Molok!!! Glad he has left an impression on you

Feeling a sudden release of the spell that was slowing him down, Davin moves to a location where he can fire at the priest easily.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Action Surge: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Shadow Arrow: A creature hit by the arrow takes an extra 2d6 psychic damage, and must succeed on a WIS saving throw (DC 10) or be unable to see anything farther than 5 ft. away until the start of your next turn.

Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 1) = 6


AvernusArt 2Grid

Wis vs Davin: 1d20 ⇒ 19

This time the priest was ready for it, ducking behind the altar at the last second. The arrow struck despite the cover, but its magics were deflected.

Molok/Davin, lol yeah I guess playing with you for a year has burned it into my brain.

Round 3:
Shal
Robed Cultist, Priest
Cole, Davin, El, Bhoors, Abrel <--UP

Male Half-Elf Bard 4 College of Blades HP 14/29 | AC 14 | Passive Perception 11 I Inspiration 1 |ACP 2 | TCP 2 Current Picture of Bhoors

Bhoors looks over at Cole, "Seriously." He looks back at Shal. "We need a medic. I'm a sorry stand in for a priest."


Male human fighter 4 | hp: 40/40 (used 4/4 HD) | AC: 17 | Init +2 | Saves: S +5, D +2, C +5, I +2, W -1, Ch +1 Insp [ ] | Spell DC 12, +4 spell atk | Slots 1st - 3 (0 used) | Passive Per 11 | Second Wind [ ] | Action Surge [ ]

I hope that does it! This Xorn is kicking our butt-ocks!


AvernusArt 2Grid

Nearly dead, Cole gathers his last strength and leaps into the rocky muscles with all hes got. He feels the rapier's point pierce some kind of balloon-like organ inside the body, and the xorn's odd eye rolls back in its skull! It starts vomiting rough sapphires and half-cracked rubies in a fit of nasty death throes.

The dwarves cheer and seeing the party start to advance up to the women above from the east, take the other western path.

Murssavayas, with one eye always on the Stonemelder, approaches Abrel and taps him on the back, poking a feather nearly up his nostril "Take flight, surface warrior. Let us see what the academies* above are teaching these days..."

Abrel, you feel the magic washing over you, and perhaps you've read of it or experienced it before. You can fly. 60 ft, depends on Murss' concentration.

*In drow culture, the Academy is where the warrior class goes to train for 10 years before their required patrol duties. Most notably, there's an annual competition, a kind of massive free for all, last man standing style.

Who is Red? And Purple is the priest, correct?


AvernusArt 2Grid

Red is a female robed cultist the drow has called a "stonemelder", and seems to be some kind of arcane caster. She cast the earthen grasp spell the first round to restrain you. Purple is the priest, yes.

Round 4:
Shal <--UP
Robed Cultist, Priest
Cole, Davin, El, Bhoors, Abrel
Murss, Dwarves

Got it. I got a plan... ;)


Female Wood Elf Warlock 5 | HP:27/27 | AC:14 | Init: +3 | Per: 11 | PB: +3 |Inspiration: Yes

"You're doing a fine job keeping everyone in fighting shape." Shaldinari says to Bhoors. "Nobody's died....yet" She adds, her eyes flicking to the bloody and battered forms of Abrel and Cole as the xorn falls to the rogues final blow. "But if you're feeling plucky, you could see if yonder priestess of Ogremoch would care to heal up our little band of hardy souls. Maybe woo her with some of your special love poems or lute playing." She adds with a wry chuckle.

Popping out from cover, the elven witch can't see a clear shot at the priestess as the cultist scurries into hiding. So instead Shaldinari tries again to knock the mage from his perch as another blast of fae energy streaks from her hand toward the cultist caster.

Repelling Eldritch Blast Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Damage: 1d10 ⇒ 5 plus 10' knockback


AvernusArt 2Grid

This time, Shal hits the Stonemelder dead center, lifting her off her feet and stumbling, teetering on the edge of the hovering granite...

I'll give her an acrobatics save, because I would do the same if a player was in this situation.

Acrobatics: 1d20 ⇒ 7

...but she is too startled to catch herself, and comes tumbling down hard, letting out a silly audible "Woah!"

Fall Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 3) = 4

*splat* She lands just near Cole, prone, nearly striking him.


AvernusArt 2Grid

The Stonemelder stands, enraged, not bothering to brush off the sparkling wet sands of the creek bed. The Cyst begins to rumble as she slowly steps forward, the tremors intensifying at Shals feet in particular, eyes glowing a bright yellow like sodium crystals...

...but Murssavayas knew this was coming and is quick to intercept the energies. Thin strands of webbing loop and curve like quick growing vines, grabbing every earthen particle and dampening its vibrations again until the earth is once again still. 3d12 erupting earth to Davin and Shal avoided, Counterspell is no joke.

The priest meanwhile, on her last leg tries to catch Davin and Shal in a small explosion, tiny glittering sands on the walls, floors, and ceiling simulateously shatter sending their razor sharp shards everywhere...

Shatter: 3d8 ⇒ (4, 4, 7) = 15 Con save DC 13 for half, Davin/Shal

Round 4:
Shal
Robed Cultist, Priest
Cole, Davin, El, Bhoors, Abrel <--UP
Murss, Dwarves

Abrel flies up into the air and flies up level with the priest! Assuming that since the drow cast Fly, the magic weapon spell fades...

With his left hand, the eldritch knight focuses and hurls a bolt of lightning at the priest, and when it strikes the woman, it seems to pull her toward him!

If she fails, she is pulled toward Abrel, if she ends within 5 feet, she takes 1d8 lightning damage.

lightning lure Str save DC 12: 1d8 ⇒ 7 lightning damage

Falling damage? 2d6 ⇒ (1, 6) = 7


Female Wood Elf Warlock 5 | HP:27/27 | AC:14 | Init: +3 | Per: 11 | PB: +3 |Inspiration: Yes

Con Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20

Feeling the earth around her begin to tremble, Shaldinari quickly wraps her cloak around her head and body for a little extra protection and then ducks and dodges to avoid the worst of the shattering rocks.

HP: 7/15


AvernusArt 2Grid

Thanks, the enhancement was lost after the young xorn died, correct.

Strength vs Abrel: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

The lightning lash crackles around her wrist like a diamond bracelet, but with one practiced jerk, she shatters the line, dissipating the electrical energies in a spark shower.

Awesome move on the coolness factor scale, hope you get it next time.

Dagnabbit! >.<


Wood elf Druid 3 HP:21/21 AC:16 perc: +5, Init: +3 SAVES: Str -1, Dex +3, Con +1, Int +2, Wis +5, Cha +1

Elandil hops from floating rock to floating rock trying to make his way to the priestess. United to balancing on floating rocks he takes a defensive stance.

Ive gone 35ft counting both vertical and horizontal separately. Assuming no movement penalties for moving along the path I've place myself above her I think. If I have used less movement than I think, I wanted to get on the platform she is on and cast thunderwave. Otherwise I'll take the dodge action.


Con Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

Also seeing the rocks shatter and fly towards him, Davin move away from the area, getting a better line of fire on the priest and fires at her.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11


AvernusArt 2Grid

El, just count horizontally. I only use vertical for falling damage and some spells (fly). Thunderwave from your current position is possible, I mean it would strike down at her. Are you doing that or dodging?

Bhoors repeats a short line about healing.

Healing Word Cole: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Bhoors approaches the priestess, "My girl says I should try to woo you." His arms outstretched casually rapier in still in hand. "Truth be told I's rather bugger a tortle." He snaps forward and leaps into a lunge with the sword aimed at the priestess.

Using Inspiration for Advantage.
Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Rapier Advantage: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

The lunge strikes out at air and he shifts back get his footing ready for the next onslaught. He mumbles, "Tymora I really needed to roll the hard 6 there."


Wood elf Druid 3 HP:21/21 AC:16 perc: +5, Init: +3 SAVES: Str -1, Dex +3, Con +1, Int +2, Wis +5, Cha +1

I'll dodge. I'll save my spell slot in case someone needs an emergency healing word.

Round 4, Sneak Att

Cole, smiles crookedly as he feels the wounds close on him, and he slides 10 feet to attack the priestess.

Rapier Att: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Rapier Dam: 1d8 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 3 + (6) = 11
SS Att: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
SS Dam: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7


AvernusArt 2Grid

Cole, the priestess (purple) is 15 ft above you. Do you want to throw something at her? Otherwise the stonemelder (red, wizardly type) is on ground level with you, but not sneak eligible. Ill assume you meant the stonemelder if you don't respond.


Male Human Rogue (Criminal)/1; AC: 16; HP: 9/9; Initiative +4; Passive Perception 12; HD Used 0/1

Sorry, stonemelder next to me without sneak will be fine.


AvernusArt 2Grid

Cole thinks he has the stonemelder right in line with a hefty sword point to the gut, but at the last minute she turns...and with a wave of her hand the blade is caught in mid air by some kind of barrier. She cast shield.

Murssvayas seems displeased "Fool! You are no match for her!" before abandoning you on the ground, teleporting upwards onto where she once stood in a misty haze. He casts a spell, but oddly seems to hold the energies tightly in his fist, the tiny force daggers just begging to be released. Ready to cast magic missile when shield drops

The dwarves, thankful they don't need to parkour up into the sky today, rush along the ground at the stonemelder, likewise ignoring the drow's ramblings...

Dwarf 1 Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Dwarf 2 Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

...but their maces deflect from the arcane ward in frustration.

Round 5:
Shal <--UP
Robed Cultist, Priest
Cole, Davin, El, Bhoors, Abrel
Murss, Dwarves


Female Wood Elf Warlock 5 | HP:27/27 | AC:14 | Init: +3 | Per: 11 | PB: +3 |Inspiration: Yes

Flinging her cloak back, Shaldinari stifles a laugh at the bard's response, then ducks and dashes into the room to get a better angle on the priest. Moving up near one of the dead cultists, she sends a blast of power sailing toward the earth worshipper while also looking to see if she can spot the book.

Repelling Eldritch Blast Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Damage: 1d10 ⇒ 3 plus 10' knockback

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15


AvernusArt 2Grid

The priest stands defiant, throwing up a thin layer of stone to deflect the eldritch blast at the last moment. Shield Shal uses the distraction to take a good look at the altar and notices Boltsmelter's book and other implements splayed forth on the regal stone.

She slides a bloodied hand across the altar as the soil shield quickly falls and the earth begins to tremble "*pant wheeze* Ogremoch...hears my call...? *pant*" she seems slightly scared when the response is less than lackluster, perhaps her god is abandoning her. Nevertheless, for El and Bhoors the effect is quite resounding...the small floating islands in the area wiggle and rotate quickly, spraying sand everywhere.

Earth Tremor Dmg: 1d6 ⇒ 6+prone or dex save dc 13 to negate both

The stonemelder laughs at the priestess "You were never Ogremoch's chosen, Xune..." and mockingly holds up a small clay sculpture that eerily resembles Cole right in his face, before crushing it with a quick grip. A mass of sticky mud erupts from the ground in the shape of a thick slimy hand, lashing out at him...

Earthen Grasp: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 5) = 7+restrained or DC 13 str save to negate both

Round 5:
Shal

Reminder for El, you have advantage on Dex saves since you used Dodge. :)

Indeed I do, looks like dodge was the way to go

dex save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
dex save adv: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Elandil finds sure footing amid the shaking platforms and keeps his feet. Pressing his luck, he leaps down to the platform with the priestess (Xune?) chanting as he falls. As he lands, a wave of thunderous force rolls out from him attempting to push the priestess away.

assuming I can fit on the platform that is. Cast thunderwave. DC 13 con save to negate knockback and halve damage

thunderwave: 2d8 ⇒ (4, 6) = 10


Davin again lines up his shot at the priest as she attempts to call upon her unholy elemental god.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Just clarifying, both of them cast shield, correct?


AvernusArt 2Grid

Thats right Abrel, quite mysterious behavior for a so-called 'priest'...

Con vs El: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

Els sonic energies blast the priestess to her knees "*coughs up blood* ...why...why do you want to stop our cleansing...our return..." she sputters. It looks like a beesting could end her life at this point...1 hp.

Abrel looks at the priest, It's not too late. Give up and you will be spared.

He flies down above the Stonemelder and waves his hand in an arc, Infernus!
