Gram Luthar's page

Hey guys, I'm going working some late hours for the next few week to meet holifay deadlines so I may miss posting some days. If Im last in initiatuve geel free to bot me.

If gram can get a sneak attack he'll take it. Otherwise Viscious Mockery is his jam.

Gram moves further north, reloading and firing another bolt.

Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (10) + (3) + 5 = 18

Damage+Sneak Attack: 1d8 + 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + (4) + 3 = 13

Damage from previous hit:Piercing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Gram moves ten feet northward, reloads, and fires another bolt at the troll.

Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 4 = 16

Piercing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Gram loads another bolt and lines up a shot. Dont forget! Fire and acid!
And he lets loose another bolt.

Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

I'll try fire off a bolt before switching to melee when it closes.

He draws and loads his crossbow, and when everyone is ready, he fires.

Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Sorry, guys. Between hosting my fiancee's family for the holiday weekend, catching up with work, and starting a side project, I dropped the ball on posting. I'll try to give a heads up in the future if I see myslef going on hiatus or the like.

Nature: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17

The sight of the creature stirs Gram from an episode of deep thought.

Troll. he says, frowning. Disgusting creatures. They climb up out of the well at the Yawning Portal sometimes. Pain in the ass to kill. Unless you hit them with fire or acid, they can regenerate from any wounds.

"We'll have to be swift with our takedown then."

"Do you happen to know which direction these attacks come from, sir"

I think I'll stay here tonight. I've got to finish my report and send a replacement squad to watch the sewers anyway. Plus I can keep an eye on Halgrin here. We can meet here in the morning.

I can vouch for his skills in combat. And for that of Katra here. They were both instrumental in the cult takedown today. I deputized them to help deal with the imminent threat in the sewers.

"We've got medics back at HQ. At a glance though, he doesnt have any life threatening injuries. He should make a full recovery with enough bedrest. But we'll get him checked out all the same." Gram looks a Halgrin again. Then addresses the others. " You really saved our butts down there. Halgrin was down for the count and I was not too far behind. Thank you."

Im with Horat. No idea what it is, but excited to be a part of it.

"We've cleared a cultist lair in the sewar depths. I want the bodies removed and disposed of as per protocol. There's also a shrine to baphomet installed down there. Destroy it. Then I want a team of 3 officers to stake out this sewer entrance. If any suspicious persons attempt to access the sewers via this grate, arrest them and bring them in for interrigation. I'll send a releif team before the end of your shift." Gram taks a moment to draw a crude map to help them get through the maze.

"Any questions?"

Gram checks Malgus' person.

"We yet remain among the living, <Bratr>." Gram replies.

"And perhaps you're right. Malgus did have arcane power, he could have protected his secrets by some means of abjuration. Are any of you capable of detecting or dispelling such things?"

Gram hops up ready to continue the fight. Only to see Malgus go down feom Katra's attack.

Remembering Malgus' last words, retorts I believe in Justice. And of the two of us, only my belief was rewarded today

With that business done, he turns his attention to the chest. He pulls out his thieves' tools and attempts to unlock it.

Dexterity: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Death Save: 1d20 ⇒ 20

Your magics won't save you forever, Malgus. You will taste my blade eventually.

Vicious Mockery:DC 13 WIS save or take Psychic Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2 and have disadvantage on the next attack roll he makes before the end of his next turn

Gram will check to see how the enemy is fairing.
Medicine: 1d20 ⇒ 10
Seeing Malgus fall prone, he sees an opportunity to attack in earnest.

"You're slipping, Malgus"
Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Rapier Adv.: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Damage+Sneak Attack: 1d8 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (7) + 3 + (6) = 16

Seeing Katra tend to Halgrin, Gram continues his verbal assault. You think you're pretty tough huh? All the same, you'll die down here, you psycho.

Vicious Mockery:DC 13 WIS save or take Psychic Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3and have disadvantage on the next attack roll he makes before the end of his next turn

Gram Disengages with a Cunning Action and moves behind Halgrin, ready to stabilize him bezt round if needed.

He glares at Malgus and says "I came down here to arrest you, but I won't allow you to cut down a fellow officer and keep your head!"
Vicious Mockery: DC 13 WIS save or take Psychic Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2 and have disadvantage on the next attack roll he makes before the end of his next turn

Halgrin,No! Gram yells as he unleashes a retaliatory strike against Malgus.
Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage+Sneak Attack: 1d8 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 3 + (3) = 9

Gramm takes another stab at Malgus.

Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Damage+Sneak Attack: 1d8 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 3 + (5) = 11

Gram finishes his move to Malgus (Using a Cunning Action Dash if needed ) and attacks with his rapier.

Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Damage+Sneak Attack: 1d8 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 3 + (1) = 5

Gram dashes into the room Cunning Action and posts up sholder to sh to Halgrin, facing Malgus. He takes a swing with his rapier.

Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Damage+Sneak Attack: 1d8 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (8) + 3 + (6) = 17

I believe Katra smashed the rubble, but if not Gram Moves as far as he can and takes the DODGE action

Arcana: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 2 + 1 = 15

Gram walks up to Katra and rouses her awake."This is no time for a nap, Lady Katra. Resist his tricks."

Investigation: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

"As long as you live, huh? You sure you don't want to amend that statement?"

Gram lowers his voice and turns to his companions. This room is set up to house more people than we've encountered so far. There may be more cultists down here, or they may be out in the city due to return at anytime. We should eatch our backs.

Matching Horat's volume, "Those doors lead to a storage room and a bunk room. Not sure if they're connected to the leader's quarters, but it wouldnt hurt to try. We might even find useful supplies." And he heads over to the Eastern most door and checks to see if it's locked.

"I see..." Gram once again aproaches the rope. "And what exactly is being stored? Is there anything of particular note in the bunk or storage rooms? Any traps or countermeasures? Keep in mind, youre the only person down here that we've kept alive so far, so think twice before you try to lie to me"

"Yeah we'll get you down." and Gram pulls out his dagger, grabs hold of the rope, and brings the blade right up to the rope before pausing. ""But before we do..." and he backs up a bit to face "James". "What can you tell us about the other rooms connecting to the ritual room? We saw 3 doors while we were down there liberating this innocent woman you helped imprison."

"Its settled then.
Officer Hagrin and I will escort Miss Lidia to the surface while you stand guard. We'll try to make it a quick trip." He pulls out his pipe flute and plays a few notes to warm up.
"Be sure you tend to your wounds. Of the flesh and of the mind. It was a tough battle."

And with that he begins playing a soothing melody as he leads Halgrin and Lidia towards the maze. Song of Rest: everyone that can hear the song gets an extra 1d6 to add to their Hit Dice if rolling for health. (If its too much of a stretch for Katra and Horat, I understand but I figured I'd try to include them) Hp: 1d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (7) + 1 + (3) = 11

Upon seeing "James", Gram sighs. "Oh right. I suppose we should take you to the surface as well. Halgrin, do you want to cut him down, or should I?"

"Yes, It would behoove us to tend to our wounds ahead if marching anu further into the unknown. It might also be wise to get word to the rest of the Watch. Should we fail, we dont want the knowledge of this plot dying with us. But I also dont want to give this Malgus a chance to escape. Perhaps two of us should stand guard here while the other two escort Ms. Lidia to the surface.

I try to give others a chance to respond to my actions or initiate actions of their own before I jump to other things. Otherwise the thread would be flooded with Gram's face. Lol

Gram is going to look her over for signs of injury before helping her to her feet and asking a few questions.

"No thanks necessary. I'm just glad you're ok. My name is Gram. And those are my compatriots Halgrin, Katra, and Horat. What's your name?" he waits for a response and then continues.

"I'm going to have to ask you a few questions if you're up to it. How long were you held down here? Were there any other captives when you were brought down? Do you know what they were planning to do or did you overhear any of their plans?"

Gramm removes the bonds/gags from the hostage. "We've got you now. You're safe with us. Are you hurt ma'am?"

Gram is less concerned with the cultists as he is with the hostage at this point. And he trusts Horat and Halgrin to mop up. So he runs over to the alter and checks it over for any traps or anything that before moving her.

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

Dex Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Gram catches another flame to the torso but pushes through the pain. And dashes to Halgrins side to back him up.

As he gets a look at the captive, he'll try to comfort her.

"Don't worry ma'am! We're from the Watch, and we're gonna get you out of here!

Gram winces in pain from the flames, but fights through it, striking at the cultist in front of Katra.

Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Sneak Attack Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Ah! Well then I'll stay where I am.

Feeling the tides of battle changing in their favor, Gram steps to the side and says to Katra Stay with us a bit longer Halgrin needs your help.

Healing Word: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Figured I could res the other healer who could res our other fighter so that everyones back in the action

He then attacks the cultist in front of her with his rapier.
Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

And finally, Gram uses his Cunning action to Disengage and move 10 feet north. Just out if reach of the cultist.

Im right behind you <Bratr>.

BTW, I can't move my character on my phone, so If I need to further clarify where Im am on the map let me know. Right now I'm on Halgrins left.

Con Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Gram moves past Halgrin (stopping right next to him) and strikes at the green creature with his rapier.

Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
Sneack Attack: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Con Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
Con Save dis: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
*cough* *cough* Halgrin, we're at a disadvantage in this spot. We need to either break their line,push them back, or withdraw and regroup."

He then draws a dagger and throws it at the cultist in front of Halgrin.
Dagger with partial cover: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 5 - 2 = 20
Dagger with partial cover dis: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 5 - 2 = 16
Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Sneak Attack Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Hate to see that crit on a disadvantaged roll

Gram turns his attention to the cultist in front of Katra. "You know you’re being used right? You think you won’t be on the list of sacrifices when your master takes control? Think again.”

Vicious Mockery: DC 13 WIS save or take Psychic Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2and have disadvantage on the next attack roll he makes before the end of his next turn

Congratulations on your move.

Thanks man! :)

Sorry for the lack of posting the last few days. I was moving into a new place and thr process took way longet than it should have.

Gram takes position behind Halgrin and verbally berates the cultist facing him. "You thought you were safe behind a maze full of monsters? You Thought wrong!"

Vicious Mockery:DC 13 WIS save or take Psychic Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4 and have disadvantage on the next attack roll he makes before the end of his next turn
