Greeting heroes, I would like you to investigate the Death house, a house that is haunted that puts itself back together even if destroyed, a house that rebuilds itself and sucks in and traps the living inside, destroy this evil once and for all.
Dotting in.
Might as well do this while we're here.
Dotting as well
Perception
Dot!
The hulking orc leaned against one of the walls in the room that the meeting was taking place. After hearing the pitch, he would raise his gravelly voice and say "So, how much does destroying a life-sucking house pay?"
Fhern considers the invitation. "A house that rebuilds itself, eh? Sounds like an infinite supply of cheap firewood to me."
He idly produces flame and extinguishes it while he speaks, as if it were a nervous habit.
Orsik strokes his beard. "Dealing with a haunted house is not an easy task. Do you know more about it?"
"Tasazzar agrees with the druid. Cheap kindling indeed." he says with a grin.
Ragana pulls his axe out and grins.
You all go through the house, noticing the food is fresh as can be, the furniture is in perfect condition, and none of it should be. You get to a stone statue and grab the orb which is worth money and 2 ghoul attack as they animate. The room is 4 by 4, statue in the middle and ghouls at the opposite end of you all.
Ragnaganon
Talsazzar
Orsik
Fhern
Fang
Zylfina
Agotaras
Ghoul
Fhern and Talsazzar are up
Talsazzar Pulls on his arcane bloodline, hurling a blazing orb of fire at the ghouls.
The ghouls get hit with an orb and both burn badly.
Fhern stays behind the fighters and launches a bolt of fire at the closest ghoul.
Ragna laughs and starts to move the nearest target and swings his great axe at the undead thing. After he hits he stands ready.
Fhern tries to hit a ghoul, but it dodges out of the way.
They both try to attack Fhern
and make a con save dc 10 or be paralyzed for 1 minute, not that it might matter anyhow.
And then Ragnaganon slices one in half
Orsik, Fang, Zylfina, and Agotaras are up
Disgusted by the undead, Zylfina unleashes a witch bolt at the remaining creature.
Zylfina aims but just barely misses as the ghoul dodges.
Ouch.
At least I'm still awake.
Orsik brings his warhammer down on the unholy creature.
And Orsik kills it. Combat over, if anyone wishes to do healing before the final combat of death house, now is the time.
Fang was busy shoving the stone statue into his pack, and by the time he looked up the combat was over. "Next time, save some for me!" he says, untangling his straps from around the statue's leg and then finally getting it into his pack.
A sexy woman in fine clothes and leather armor comes beeboppin into the room.. She's slender and sleek, with pale skin and hair. A pair of tiny red horns protrudes from her forehead. She turns to the group and gives a devilish smile..
"I hope I'm not to late! My names Cherry! Oh.. We got some stocky men up in here!"
Agotaras hurumphs having made it to the battle too late. "Couldn't even leave one for the dwarf to thwack. Next time I will have to move faster to get in front I guess."
The dwarf kicks one of the downed ghouls for good measure. "Blasted undead scourge."
Heroes go down to the basement and defeat a couple of rats and undead in there and finally they come to a 30 foot by 30 foot room, covered in 2 feet of water while the edges are raised above it, making everything except the edges of the room difficult terrain. It says to make a sacrifice on the alter or pay the ultimate price and face the shambling mound. There is a shambling mound laying down in the middle of the room.
"A sacrifice to this unholy house? Never!"
"Well I guess that means we fight the plant then.. You big tough boys get get it!"
She casts Faerie Fire on the plant, DC 13 Reflex to negate, and uses her bonus action for bardic inspriation on Agotaras.
She tries to maintain maximum distance from the plant.
"I certainly will not be scraficing anything, even a copper, to any thing that consorts with the undead."
Agotaras pushes to the front of the group, shield at the ready.
"Let the bloody plant thing come my light will protect me."
Fhern stands by Cherry and tries to keep the beefy people between him and the plant and calls down a moonbeam on the mound.
Upon Cherry enchanting the thing, Fhern raises an eyebrow. "Oh, uh, I guess we're getting started then, aren't we?"
Talsazzar points at the creature, encanting in draconic as he shoots a bolt of fire at it.

Ragna smiles again he pulls his axe back and is ready to swing as soon the plant things come close to or Cherry Poppins. He looks over at young woman. How you doing? he says to her.
Cherry gives a big wink at Rag..
"I'll be doing great as long as you big hunks protect me!"
Clearly confused by the banter Agotaras nods.
"Just stay behind us then. My faith will protect you."
The plant was alseep, so this is like surprise attacks to it, it basically just failed all saves. It has a rude awakening up as it howls and growls
Round 1, all heroes are up.
Cherry stays by the door and casts Eldritch Blast at it.. She then uses her bonus action to give bardic inspiration to Rag.. She continues her faerie fire as well.
"Money Shot!!"
Zylfina moves to the North side of the room and mutters some arcane words in a foul, forbidden language. Swinging her longsword, she strikes at the creature.
Ragna moves up next to the plant being inspired by the sweet horns. And swings with his great axe. As his blade sinks into he laughs and says to Cherry I am feeling inspired by your words sweet horns. After this maybe we could spend sometime together . He has look of lust in eyes.
"Get a room, you guys! Preferably one with no demon-plants in it, but beggars can't be choosers."
Fhern will stay near the door as well and continue the assault.
Continuing moonbeam:
Fang moves into melee with the creature and attacks it.
Orsik grins and conjures a large shining gauntlet that immediately strikes the mound, moves to the south of the creature and hammers it with his weapon.
"Ahe ya nasty vegetable. The eyes of god are on you and not happy."
Agotaras moves head on towards the creature, not tactics just steel and slices at the beast with his longsword.
Cherry winks at the dwarf.. "Perhaps we can figure out something later.."
All the heroes hit except Zylfina They hack, slash, firebolt and blast the thing.
Edits:
Talsazzar still has a turn for round 1
Talsazzar will throw a second fire bolt.

Talsazzar burns its foot
It goes trying to attack Fang the first slam bounces off his helmet, only this 2nd time around it finds the non guarded area.
round 2, hereos are up
"Ha, evil creature. We are on you and the light will burn your... well you know...I will smite you."
Agotaras's banter is lacking but his holy power shines.
