Group 2, Episode 2: Greenest in Flames

[Computer +1]

Urth Stormwind

Ok Kan, lets do it. Just don't let anyone get away.

[dmw71]

Scout
Dureau, from his rearmost rank, quickly extinguishes his torch and gathers the illuminated pebble, concealing it in his pocket so the light can not be seen by anyone on the other side of the grate. "We musn't let them report the existence of this passage back to their forces!" Kañ-Demir shares, as he, Urth, and Targ begin to strategize. "The tunnel restricts melee; ranged attacks will be vital," the warlock whispers. "Let's pour out as they draw near, then ambush them with arrows and spells," Kañ-Demir says. "After the first volley, I will chase down any that attempt to flee."

Clank.

Grimbul, one of the ranged attackers, eagerly steps forward but scrapes his hand axe against the stone wall of the tunnel.
Catarina hisses at the clumsy dwarf, maybe too forcefully, and looks to hide in her forward position in the tunnel.

Tarq silently slips past the hidden tabaxi and moves to the tunnel exit. Peering outside, the half-elf spots the patrol with his own eyes for the first time -- the majority of the group is maybe 40-feet out and holding while a single kobold, currently 20-feet away, is slowly approaching by itself.

    Features:
    • Feline Agility: 1
      • When you move on your turn in combat, you can double your speed until the end of the turn.
      • Once you use this trait, you can’t use it again until you move 0 feet on one of your turns.
    • Cat’s Claws:
      • Because of your claws, you have a climbing speed of 20 feet.
      • In addition, your claws are natural weapons, which you can use to make unarmed strikes.
        • If you hit with them, you deal slashing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.
    • 1st: Expertise (Perception, Stealth)
      • Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of the chosen proficiencies.
    • 1st: Sneak Attack (1d6)

    • 1st: Thieves’ Cant
      • During your rogue training you learned thieves’ cant, a secret mix of dialect, jargon, and code that allows you to hide messages in seemingly normal conversation.
      • Only another creature that knows thieves’ cant understands such messages.
      • It takes four times longer to convey such a message than it does to speak the same idea plainly.
      • In addition, you understand a set of secret signs and symbols used to convey short, simple messages, such as whether an area is dangerous or the territory of a thieves’ guild, whether loot is nearby, or whether the people in an area are easy marks or will provide a safe house for thieves on the run.

        • Note: This has been modified to limit this study and familiarity to just metallic dragons, not those of the chromatic variety.

    • 3rd: --
    Background: Far Traveler (Dwarf)
    • Feature: All Eyes on You
      • Your accent, mannerisms, figures of speech, and perhaps even your appearance all mark you as foreign. Curious glances are directed your way wherever you go, which can be a nuisance, but you also gain the friendly interest of scholars and others intrigued by far-off lands, to say nothing of everyday folk who are eager to hear stories of your homeland.
        
        You can parley this attention into access to people and places you might not otherwise have, for you and your traveling companions. Noble lords, scholars, and merchant princes, to name a few, might be interested in hearing about your distant homeland and people.

        A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions.

I see a few initiative rolls coming in, but I also need to know if anyone is doing anything, or just waiting.

[Scott308]

Dureau Sathaos

We're sitting ducks if we stay here! Either lock the grate and we can retreat, hoping they don't notice anything, or we need to charge out, take the fight to them. Maybe we catch them unprepared, whispers the cleric.

Initiative: [1d20+2] = 6+2 = 8

[Pulpatoon]

Kañ-Demir has flattened himself against the wall to let others past him. He then holds his action until the others have attacked, at which point he is prepared to Dash out after anyone fleeing.

Grimbul holds bow and waits for someone in the lead to do something.

Scout
While the consensus seems to be that an encounter in the tunnel is to be avoided at all costs, the group is continuing to debate their next course of action when --

A startled chirp!

Targ, at the entrance, quickly turns to the source of the sound and realizes he's suddenly almost face-to-face with the kobold scout. The lone creature immediately turns and begins to flee, alerting the rest of the scouting party in its coarse, native draconic tongue.

Urth and Catarina overhear the warning issued, and translate for the rest:

"People hiding!"

Urth Stormwind

We made a mess of this Urth curses. Lets get out and hit them fast.. Urth will move from the tunnel as fast as he can and once clear of the entrance will cast an Eldrich Blast at one of the robed figures they face

Attack [1d20] = 16
Damage [1d10+3] = 5+3 = 8
Initiative [1d20] = 12

[BearSiren817]

Catarina runs out, slightly tripping and looses an arrow at the nearest enemy.

([1d20+5] = 5+5 = 10 [1d6+3] = 4+3 = 7)

She then steps back 10 ft. (South)

[GreyWolfVT]

Grimbul attempts to use of his Hail of Thorns spell. Then once able to he rushes out and fires an arrow at one of the robed figures green dot robed dude in the back on the brown "dirt" square.

Longbow [1d20+3] = 15+3 = 18 to hit. [1d8+1] = 4+1 = 5 damage

[Pulpatoon]

Was Kañ-Demir's Dash action triggered last round when the kobold fled? Either way, he takes off after the fleeing kobold.

[dmw71]

Was Kañ-Demir's Dash action triggered last round when the kobold fled?

No, he wouldn't have seen the kobold. The kobold was creeping up, saw Targ at the entrance, and took off before coming into view of others deeper in the tunnel.

[Dram]

Tarq- fires a arrow at the fleeing kobold.

1st shot
S. bow tohit[1d20+5] = 15+5 = 20, todam[1d6+3] = 2+3 = 5

If the first shot drops the kobold he will fire the second at the red dot robe figure.

The cleric moves to the entrance of the tunnel, but it is too far for him to make it out this round.

Round 1
"People hiding!"

The group was unprepared when the warning went out, and is now spurred into action.

The first in the group to act, Targ steps out of the tunnel and takes aim with his bow at the kobold that spotted him... but has his attack at least momentarily delayed as a series of spears, tossed by the readied cultists, comes raining down on him as soon as he presents himself as a target. After the first two spear chucks miss their marks, the third, thrown from overhead, manages to sink into the half-elf's boot and graze the big toe on his left foot. Undeterred by the stinging in his foot, the rogue checks his aim and looses an arrow, striking his target with well-placed arrow... and is surprised when the creature shakes off the effects and remains on its feet.

Catarina bounds out of the tunnel, past Targ, tripping slightly as she targets the nearest enemy -- the already wounded kobold -- with an errant arrow. She hisses as her arrow misses its mark, then clears the exit by retreating a few steps back.

The kobolds stir to action, and break off into paired groups.

The first group rushes at Targ! The first (pink), fighting in practiced unison with its counterpart, strike with deadly force, running a dagger deep into Targ's side -- for an instant, the half-elf feels searing pain as the blade slices through his skin... but then the world falls black as he collapses to the ground, unconscious. The second kobold (orange), spying the easy victim, climbs on top of the fallen rogue and drives its dagger into his barely breathing chest!

A second group of kobolds advances, but stops roughly 20-feet from the tunnel exit and readies their slings.

The third group of kobolds immediately begins to wade through the stream, which given their diminutive forms, results in the water almost reaching their necks. This last pair safely reaches the opposite shore and begin to shake themselves dry.

Dureau, from the rear rank, navigates to the tunnel exit. Spying the heavily wounded and unconscious Targ lying just beyond the exit, with a pair of kobold's threatening to inflict potentially fatal wounds, the cleric clutches his amulet and casts Spare the Dying on his fallen companion, at least temporarily freeing the half-elf from the immediate threat of passing into the afterlife.

Kañ-Demir, intent on giving chase to the fleeing kobold, finds it, and a companion, just outside the exit... standing above the recently stabilized rogue with seemingly evil intentions. Realizing he needs to clear the threat, the monk continues his dual attacks. A solid, successful drubbing from a quarterstaff is enough to drop the previously wounded adversary. The second kobold rolls off Targ's body as it efforts to escape the underside of the monks foot.

"We made a mess of this," Urth curses. "Lets get out and hit them fast.." the warlock continues as he rushes towards the exit. Passing the cleric, and carefully stepping past Targ, Urth rounds the corner of the tunnel and seeks out one of the robed cultists -- spotting them just overhead, as the trio of cultists perch at the edge of the gradual hill the tunnel funnels out of -- he unleashes an Eldrich Blast at the nearest target, striking it square in the face! A brief scream of pain is heard as the blast victim tumbles over the side of the hill, crashing to the ground below, just in front of the second pair of kobolds.

Grimbul, moving as quickly as his dwarven legs will carry him, reaches the end of the congested tunnel and has no choice but to veer to his right. The ranger quickly casts his Hail of Thorns spell, then, pulling back the bowstring, looses an arrow which sinks into the right shoulder of the nearest cultist. The arrow, after striking, bursts into a rain of thorns which pepper both remaining cultists, leaving them both heavily wounded with many cuts and abrasions.

The pair roar in pain and begin to pick away the thorns piercing their areas of exposed skin.



---

FYI...

Dram, because Targ was unconscious, any hit against him would be critical. Then, per the 'Damage at 0 Hit Points' rule, any successful attack against him would result in two failed death saves.

I was about to call for a very important death saving throw for Targ for round 2. Instead, he is stable, but still unconscious.

Everyone else, please declare any actions and/or movement for round 2.

          • For example, if you take the Attack action and attack with a quarterstaff, you can also make an unarmed strike as a bonus action, assuming you haven’t already taken a bonus action this turn.
    • 2nd: Ki
      • Flurry of Blows
        • Immediately after you take the Attack action on your turn, you can spend 1 ki point to make two unarmed strikes as a bonus action.

    Background: Far Traveler (Dwarf)
    • Feature: All Eyes on You
      • Your accent, mannerisms, figures of speech, and perhaps even your appearance all mark you as foreign. Curious glances are directed your way wherever you go, which can be a nuisance, but you also gain the friendly interest of scholars and others intrigued by far-off lands, to say nothing of everyday folk who are eager to hear stories of your homeland.
        
        You can parley this attention into access to people and places you might not otherwise have, for you and your traveling companions. Noble lords, scholars, and merchant princes, to name a few, might be interested in hearing about your distant homeland and people.

Longbow [1d20+3] = 1+3 = 4 to hit. [1d8+1] = 6+1 = 7 damage
well that didn't help....

Dureau Sathaos

Having made sure his friend would not die, the cleric now takes the opportunity to heal the fallen half-elf.

Cure Wounds for 11 hp since Targ was kind enough to be at 0 hp so Dureau could maximize his healing power.

[BearSiren817]

Catarina brushes off her sloppy entrance to the fight, bristling her tail. Tiptoes (paws) gracefully around her allies and stabs at the Kolbold. Disengages and tiptoes back to her position.

[1d20+5] = 16+5 = 21 [1d8+3] = 5+3 = 8 ([1d6] = 3)
