Mayon gasped in pain at the burst of magic from Qarbo, barely managing to stay on his feet. He takes a few deep breaths, then glares and reaches into his component pouch to cast the same spell right back. "Two can play at that game." He mutters softly, then stumbles behind one of the pillars, trying to breathe around cracked ribs.


10:51, Today: Mayon Graycross rolled 3 using 1d20+1 with rolls of 2.  Con save.
Mayon is now at 1 HP D:
Action: Casting Shatter on AA10 at level 2. DC 13 Con save or take 19 thunder damage (9 on a save)
10:55, Today: Mayon Graycross rolled 19 using 3d8 with rolls of 8,7,4.  Shatter damage.
Move after casting to AF19.

Morg focuses on stabbing the guard menacing Zora and tries to scare it with a dwarven curse; blocking out for the moment the orc from the stairs, whatever's coming thru the western door, and... butterflies?!

---

Bonus action: if damage taken, then take a 2nd wind (which I'll roll for later if needed).

Action: if G1 is still conscious, then knock-out (instead of fatal) attack on G1 with Reszur  - hits AC 23 for 10 magical piercing damage with menacing attack maneuver: if G1 still conscious after that, it must make a WIS save (vs a DC of 14) or be frightened of Morg.

Move: if G1 is unconscious, then move 25' to AH11.

02:08, Today: Morg Danforge rolled 23 using 1d20+4+1d4 with rolls of 17,2. Constitution save +Bless. I think Jak should be saving vs. Qarbo's Shatter instead of Morg tho.
02:20, Today: Morg Danforge rolled 22 using 1d20+7+1d4 with rolls of 13,2. Attack G1 with Reszur (magical dagger).
02:29, Today: Morg Danforge rolled 10 using 1d4+7+1d8 with rolls of 1,2.  Reszur (magical dagger) piercing damage +Menacing attack maneuver on G1.

"You!" The disheveled half-orc roars, pointing his shortsword towards Qarbo, "Now we'll have a fair fight!" With that the half-man rushes towards the human, stabbing at his torso with his blades.

---

Move Action: Move to AA11.
Action: Attack Qarbo with shortsword. Hits AC 11.
Bonus Action: Off-hand attack at Qarbo with shortsword. Hit AC 7.

Rona'Aduur rolled 11 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 6.  Attack Q, shortsword.
Rona'Aduur rolled 7 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 2.  Off-hand Attack Q, shortsword.

The new arrival bellows a challenge at Qarbo, yet slips as he tries to skirt the narrow ledge between the room's column and the stairs. Qarbo ignores the challenge as his last companion collapses to the flagstones, unconscious.

His face a thundercloud, the priest retreats back behind the altar and begins motioning to cast another spell. Abruptly realizing something is wrong, his mien shows the first signs of concern.

---

Map updated. The circle indicates the area under the influence of Silence.

Round 5 Summary:

Rona attempts to skirt the stairs and approach Qarbo, but stumbles and lands near the top step (I rolled an athletics check to do this more successfully, but got an 8). Rona manages to move to Z10 however (note you can't cross the stairs except to descend to a lower level, from where Rona appeared).

Mayon casts Shatter on Qarbo - Qarbo saves, takes 9 thunder. Mayon moves behind a pillar.

Zora uses bonus action to attack Qarbo with Spiritual Weapon - MISS. She casts Silence centered at AA9, losing concentration on Bless.

Asano casts Ray of Frost at Qarbo - HIT for 5 cold damage. Qarbo's speed is reduced by 10' until the start of Asano's next turn.

Jak saves and takes 8 thunder damage. Jak casts Vicious Mockery at Qarbo, who FAILS the save. Qarbo takes 4 psychic damage and has disadvantage on his next attack roll made before the end of his next turn.

Morg attacks G1 - HIT for 10 piercing. G1 is unconscious. Morg moves up next to Asano.

Invisible Sprite is asleep.

Qarbo moves to AA8, and can't cast any spell due to Silence.

Round 6 Initiative Order:

Who	Init	Status
Mayon	19
Zora	19	Conc: Silence
Asano	18
Jak	16
Morg	14	B. Inspiration (d6)
Sprite familiar	13	Asleep
Qarbo	13	speed -10' until SoANT, in Silence
Rona'Aduur	8

Asano nods to Morg as the dwarf comes alongside him. He waits for the dwarf to start moving again before firing his frosty ray of power. For a brief moment, Asano's eyes shift, taking on a rectangular pupil. His jaw almost seems to elongate, as his hair turns white scrunching into tight curls. For a moment, the half-elf seems in great pain.

And the next, he is fine, his ray of frost splattering a fractal across the wall behind Qarbo.

21:54, Today: Asano Breathkill rolled 16 using 1d20+1 with rolls of 15.  Wis vs Wild Magic! Polymorph Sheep!

Morg shakes his head wondering if the butterflies got stuck in his ears. He quickly realizes that his sudden deafness must just be a magic trick, and focuses on trying to look as menacing as he can.

If Qarbo is still conscious, then:

Movement: 25' to AC8.

Feeling Qarbo was well under control with her companions converging on him, she turned her attention to the worst of the wounded. She moved next to Mayon and focused on mending his wounds, laying her hands on him and channeling her divine patron's power through them. Though not before directing her spiritual hammer to smack Qarbo another time. OOC: we using flanking rules? Can Morg line up opposite the hammer to flank Qarbo? Regardless her hammer misses Qarbo, but she heals Mayon for 8.

---

15:20, Today: Secret Roll: Zora Jilkina rolled 9 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 4.  spiritual hammer attack qarbo (bonus attack).
15:20, Today: Secret Roll: Zora Jilkina rolled 8 using 1d8+3 with rolls of 5.

Jak frowned a bit as things seemed to go quiet over by Qarbo. Like, really quiet. Like, deathly quiet. He pondered his next move and happened to glance over and see that his ally Mayon looked pretty rough. So he stayed where he was and sang out a magical word to send some healing that way.

18:32, Today: Jakrynn Redgate rolled 7 using 1d4+4 with rolls of 3.  Healing Word on Mayon.

Mayon lets out a gasp of relief at the healing from his comrades and a quick grin. "Thanks! I owe you one!" He calls out, then sends another attack at Qarbo.

Action:
19:11, Today: Mayon Graycross rolled 20,4 using d20+5,d10+3 with rolls of 15,1.  Agonizing Blast Q.
Moving to cast as needed before stepping back behind the pillar.

Qarbo suppresses a dour chuckle as Morg hastens up to him, scowling and trying to heft his dagger in a threatening way. He carefully distances himself from Rona and the dwarf, then backs his way as quickly as possible toward the western door. He smiles as his steps once again ring from the stones beneath him, free of the silencing effect.

Moments later, sounds of multiple footfalls echo from behind the western door.

---

Map updated.

Round 6 Summary:

Zora kept her silence zone up, for now, concentrating to maintain it. Even if Qarbo was out of it, he could be pushed back in.

"Don't let him get away!" She shouted to her companions. "And I think he's got friends coming in."

She moved her spiritual hammer to engage with him again, and moved closer herself.

---

Bonus Action: Move spiritual hammer to Qarbo, hit him with it, hits AC 14 ... pretty sure that's a miss
Move: to X14, taking the dash action

Seeing Qarbo moving to escape, Asano shifts the target of his next frozen ray. Stepping to the southern side of the pillar, he launches his icy ray at the door on the far side of the room.

---

Morg runs as fast as his little legs can carry him but doesn't manage to catch the fake monk. Without his whip, and not wanting to lose Dweeble's dagger by throwing it, he focuses on just running as fast as possible instead of attacking, and tries to block Qarbo from leaving the chamber.

---

If Qarbo is still conscious, then:

Move: 25' to X11.

Action: dash 20' to V13.

If Qarbo offers an attack of opportunity, then:
Reaction: attack using Reszur: crit fail. (I think my patron may be telling me not to roll for an AOO before it happens ;))

19:36, Today: Morg Danforge rolled 8 using 1d20+7 with rolls of 1.  Possible attack of opportunity on Q with Reszur.

"Not so fast." Mayon hisses to himself, feeling much better and running to get a better line of sight on the monk before sending another bolt of magic his way.


Movement: Moving to AD15 before taking action.
Action:
11:16, Today: Mayon Graycross rolled 20,9 using d20+5,d10+3 with rolls of 15,6.  Agonizing Blast Q.
20 to hit for 9 force damage.

Jak took stock of the situation before shaking his head and making a tsking noise at Qarbo. "So Earth Monks're all about startin' a fight they can't finish? Or were you always a coward?" He infused his words with harmful magic and sent them spinning towards Qarbo.


08:17, Today: Jakrynn Redgate rolled 1 using 1d4 with rolls of 1.  Vicious Mockery on Qarbo.

The flash of blue ice flashes past Qarbo and crashes into the door behind him, coating the sturdy wooden door with a layer of ice near its handle. Moments later something heavy slams into the door from the other side, though the door doesn't open.

"It's frozen shut! Come around to the double doors!" Qarbo calls over his shoulder as he quickly waves his arms wide and calls out some incomprehensible words. The floor immediately around him buckles and quakes, though Qarbo himself keeps his feet.

Casting another spell he darts toward the double doors at the entrance to the shrine, legs churning unnaturally fast.

Spinning in the doorway, he smirks yet again. "Who needs to escape now?"

---

Map updated. As before, Rona can act at the top of Round 8 for his Round 7 turn.

Zora, Morg, and Rona need to make a save & can make AoO if they wish - see below. I'll amend the post if you manage to take him down before Qarbo leaves your reach ;).

Qarbo casts Earth Tremor at 2nd level - Zora, Morg, and Rona must make Dex saves or take 9 bludgeoning damage and fall prone (no effect on a successful save). As a bonus action, he casts Expeditious Retreat and moves to AB24 - Zora, Morg, and Rona can make AoO as a reaction in Round 7 on their next post (at disadvantage if prone).

Morg falls and misses his swipe at the fake monk running away. He steels himself, gets up, and runs to go fetch a morningstar from one of the unconscious guards.

On the way he says "Reszur" which lights up the magic dagger, and glances at Zora shouting "Magic dagger?" while holding it ready to toss to her if she indicates interest.

---

Reaction: Reszur attack against Q: crit fail (3rd crit fail in the last 3 attacks!).

Move: 10' to stand up from prone.

21:42, Today: Morg Danforge rolled 7 using 1d10+3 with rolls of 4.  HP recovered from second wind.


Edit: get ready to toss Reszur, go grab morning star.

Rona manages to keep his footing when the ground bucks and swells beneath his feet, lashing out at the fleeing monk with his blade, though the ground causes his attack to miss narrowly.

Not wanting his quarry to get away, Rona speaks in tongues for a moment and his eyes flare red for a second, whilst moving towards where the fleeing priest ran to.

---

Move Action: Move to W18
Action: Dash - Move to AB23
Bonus Action: Cast Hunter's Mark on Q


Rona'Aduur rolled 17 using 1d20+3 with rolls of 14.  Dex save.
Rona'Aduur rolled 10 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 5.  Attack Q, shortsword.

She was nearly able to keep her feet, but stumbled in the end. As the monk fled, she lashed out from the ground with her club hoping to get in a lick before he was out of her range.

As he moved away with incredible speed, she stood up and steeled herself. She was nearly out of spells, and they still had to escape this temple, but she couldn't let him get away. She'd tried this gambit before and it failed miserably, setting up this long fight. But it was all she could think of now.

She focused her mind and addressed Qarbo in a commanding voice, requiring him to "Approach".

---

Dex save of 12, I think that fails. Taking 6 damage and falling prone. Taking attack of opportunity with her club, hits AC 17 for 5 damage.

She drops her silence concentration. She then takes half her move action to stand, moves 15' to the east to get line of sight (AA15). She directs her spiritual weapon beside her. Finally she casts command on Qarbo with command "Approach". Come on big guy, fail your save finally!

21:20, Today: Secret Roll: Zora Jilkina rolled 5 using 1d4+3 with rolls of 2.  club damage if hit AC 17.

21:20, Today: Secret Roll: Zora Jilkina rolled 18 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 13.  disadvantage roll.

21:20, Today: Secret Roll: Zora Jilkina rolled 17 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 12.  AoO with club on Qarbo (disadvantage).

21:17, Today: Secret Roll: Zora Jilkina rolled 12 using 1d20 with rolls of 12.  dex save (going with DC 13!).

Not having many options, Mayon decides to keep doing what he has been doing, running forward and sending another blast of magic after the fleeing Monk. It flies wide, but he runs to pursue nonetheless.


11:49, Today: Mayon Graycross rolled 8,5 using d20+5,d10+3 with rolls of 3,2.  Agonizing Blast Q.
Moving to AB18.

Jak saw that his vicious words, and in some case not-so-vicious words, were not having the desired effect on Qarbo. He hissed a sigh of frustration. He hurriedly made his way to the nearest guard (that Morg WASN'T looting already), and grabbed the morningstar from the ground, restraining the urge to give the guard a good kick to make sure he stayed down.

OOC: Move, Dash action, total movement (and free object interaction to pick up the morningstar) ending in AG-18.

Hurried footsteps retreat away from the far side of the frozen door, while Qarbo leans a lazy hand on the side of the temple's main doors. He hazards a quick glance over his left shoulder, then returns a wary eye to the hulking half-orc in front of him.

"The rest of the monks aren't here yet. But they will be." He punctuates his grin with another spell, this time hurled over Rona'Aduur's shoulder towards the center of the temple.

---

Map updated. As before, Rona can act at the top of Round 8 for his Round 7 turn.

Mayon and Morg have Con saves to make - see below.

Mayon casts Agonizing Blast at Qarbo - MISS.

Asano does nothing.

Jak retrieves G1's morningstar.

Morg falls prone and takes 9 bludgeoning damage. Morg attacks Qarbo with AoO - MISS. He uses Second Wind to regain 7 hp , then hurries after Qarbo and retrieves G2's morningstar.

Invisible Sprite is asleep.

Qarbo casts Shatter at point AB18 - Morg & Mayon must make a DC 13 Con save or take 12 thunder damage (6 on a successful save).

Rona'Aduur	8	Conc: Hunter's Mark (Qarbo)

Asano rushes forward, the second wand he holds glowing as he begins uttering the command word. As Qarbo falls, he stops, the wand falling dark. He continues moving forward, moving to pull the doors closed. He looks at the half-orc, sizing him up quickly. "I'm Asano, these are my companions," he starts, "If we can seal the doors, that may hold them for a bit. What's down below?"
This message was last edited by the player at 02:39, Thu 01 Feb 2018.

Cursing his resistance to her mind controlling spells, she moved to close with qarbo. Unable to reach him quickly enough she instead attacked him with what little magic she had left.

---

move to ad21. move spiritual hammer to aa19. sacred flame qarbo for 4 unless he makes dex save. Also swap her club with jak's morning star somehow if he wants.
