Yes, all hits score at least 1 point of damage.

Gotcha, thanks. I'd already updated her sheet but appreciate the clarification!

Zelda shakes off the hit, her slow spirit roused by the heat of battle and the deaths of the villagers around her. She lunges forward and strikes at the remaining nearby kobold. Hammer to the Kobold [1d20]=16 Damage [1d4]=1 Sonja circles around and, seeing her opportunity to ingratiate herself to th...

Hubert sighs and is quiet for a long time before speaking. “It was Michaelmas, and we had all been to Mass—Sir Simon, the gardener, the cook and myself. After Mass, the cook stayed behind to ask a question of the priest in regard to his liturgy, and the rest of us returned to the house. “Some hours ...

Hubert attempts to draw the object, but lacks any practice in creative arts and it is, at best, a childish rendition of the thing. It looks roughly rectangular with what Hubert indicates to be something like antlers coming from the upper corners. "The sounds..." he begins. "Yes, they-...

Hubert, an experienced servant and used to the disregard of his betters, does not respond to the mangling of his name (if that's not intentional, please ignore) , sighing in thought before he makes his response, never once raising his eyes from the floor. "I...believe it will end the trouble, Y...

Hubert gives a single sidelong glance in Simon's direction, though Simon is no longer looking that way, and clears his throat once before answering. "Yes, your Ladyship. It has possessed the priest of the village, who is to be executed in the morning. And rightfully so." He casts his eyes ...

Hubert begins with the last question first. "I don't know much about the contents, really. The mask is the only one for a long time that I've seen with my own eyes. Not to be too squeamish about it, but I don't want any kind of taint from it to infect me, if you understand my meaning, sir. Defi...

Hubert looks toward Simon at regular intervals as he speaks, sometimes appearing to begin to answer a question, then hesitating as though looking for a response from Simon before continuing. Occasionally, in response, Simon will nod, or frown, but generally he remains impassive in the face of these ...

Right on--I saw the note in the other campaign. Thanks for checking in!

Yup, evidence enough for a superstitious 13th century peasant.

He would have made some kind of comment to suggest that the evidence makes it very clear that it's a demonic infestation of some kind, without a clear argument.

Simon frowns. “No, I’ve been in such a gloom since my return, and the climate so precarious, that I’ve not set foot once in the cottage. And my material circumstance has not lent itself to the procurement of any new items: it can be an expensive pastime, you know” He fiddles with the hem of his shir...

The gardener politely declines Arduin's offer of a drink and remains impassive but deferential and agreeable as Arduin offers his aspirational fibs about his background and interests. He seems eager to have help in resolving this issue, and from Arduin's estimation, such as it is--and having no Herb...

Simon calls for his manservant, who after a few minutes ushers the gardener into his study. The man is graying, perhaps fiftyish, with a shorty patchy beard and bright, twinkling brown eyes in a heavily tanned and lined face. He doffs his white linen cap and stands, awkwardly, before Arduin and Gert...

Somehow, to Gertrude's incredulity, Arduin manages to inflect his response to Simon with just enough affronted politeness that Simon hesitates, doubting whether he might not have been uncouth in his response to Arduin. He takes a long, quiet moment to compose himself, and then nods. "Well, as I...
