Lingo

Somehow he knew this was going to happen. He was prepared and fires his short bow at one of the Redbrands adjacent to Balthazar. He then hides.

Lingo Shoots arrow, with advantage, at redbrand
Neptune rolled 1d20+5,1d20+5,1d6+3,1d6 and got 19, 18, 7, 4

OOC: I assumed he has advantage (just for the two rolls) but he still gets sneak dice vs foes adjacent to allies. He uses his bonus "cunning action" to do the hide. If he has to move, he will. So, if he hits, he did 11 pts of damage.

DM

Lingo's arrows both hit one of the swordsmen attacking Balthazar, and he drops to the ground dead. There is one swordsman fighting Bern, one swordsman fighting Balthazar and two crossbowmen up on the porch.

(Neptune - If Lingo is going to try to hide after attacking you need to roll a Stealth roll.)

Next up is Luminmorn.....

OOC: Hey Zeim, no one is "fighting" Balthazar if you check his hit points and the damage that you did

Luminmorn

Things went the direction he had expected. The only real question is all or some.

He tosses one of his javelins before charging forward.

Attack 22, Damage 10. Pandemonium rolled d6+5 and got 10 Pandemonium rolled d20+5 and got 22

Ryssa


Thinking she heard something from down the street or around the corner, Ryssa stepped out into the street and listened carefully.

Perception Roll: 1d20+5 = 20

DM

Pande - Who is he targeting, of the 4 left?

Ken - your Tradition Spell Ability gave you 7 Temporary Hit Points when you cast Chromatic Orb, so Balthazar is still up.

Exeter - Ryssa hears the sounds of combat from far down the street, about 120 feet away. It will take her 2 rounds if she uses Dash to get there, or she can Dash for one round and use some sort of ranged effect with a distance of 30-60 feet for next round.

MikeD - Bern is up.

(OOC Oops sorry. Was thinking a crossbow guy. If none left then one of the extras that jumped over the rail.)

<Bern>

Clearly they were not going to back down, so nothing for it. These sons of orcs were gonna pay!

His rapier was out and he was going to use it. The obvious 'first choice' was the bastard that started it all. Cut off the head and all that.

Bern attack MikeD rolled 1d20+5,1d8+3 and got 15, 7

DM

Luminmorn hurls a javelin as he rushes to close. It strikes true, driving the crossbowmen back a step and staggering him, but he remains standing, although bleeding badly.

Bern takes on the Redbrand in front of him. The instigator of the encounter. His rapier slashes across the mans chest, making a nasty cut, but leaving him still standing as well.

We are back to the top of the order. One of the Redbrands is down and two others are wounded, one badly. Balthazar is up......

Initiative order:

Balthazar - 22
Redbrands - 19
Lingo - 15
Luminmorn - 13
Ryssa - 13
Bern - 7

Balthazar

Still standing thanks to his Ward spell, Balthazar looks to see if there is a path of escape now that men are down. Seeing that he would not be able to get away without one of the swordsman following and attacking, he defensively casts his Mage Armor spell to improve his chance to survive until the rest of his friends arrive and to renew his ward.

(OOC - Ken - You can use the Disengage action to move away from the swordsman without offering him an Opportunity Attack on you. However if you do that it is your action for the turn and you can't cast a spell, other than one that is a 'Bonus' Action. He can then close and attack you on his turn if he chooses. If you want to move away and Cast a spell you have to offer your opponent an Opportunity Attack.

Also note that your Ward is renewed only by casting 1st level spells or higher. Cantrips don't do it.)

DM

Balthazar steps back and casts a spell. A shimmer encompasses his body as a sheet of magical protection covers him.

The Redbrands continue their attacks. The swordsman on Balthazar swings at him and his blow manages to get past the magical protective fields. The swordsman on Bern attacks him again but misses badly. Those who might pay attention to such things note the sounds from inside the Tap House have stopped.

The charging Luminmorn receives the attention of the two crossbowmen, and both fire at him. The badly wounded one misses but the other one hits him.

Redbrands attacks Bal, Bern, Lum, Lum
Zeim rolled d20+3,d20+3,d20+3,d20+3 and got 17, 5, 6, 20

Damage - Balthazar 4, Luminmorn 5

(Note: I messed up with Balthazar's Ward. It should only occur when he casts an Abjuration Spell, and Chromatic Orb is an Evocation. However since it was my fault I will let you keep it. Note that casting Mage Armour, which is an Abjuration, renews the Ward for 2xSpell Level so it absorbs 2 of the 4 points Balthazar just took.)

Lingo is up......

Initiative order:

Balthazar - 22
Redbrands - 19
Lingo - 15
Luminmorn - 13
Ryssa - 13
Bern - 7

Sorry, I missed the edit (new post lights don't go on for changes)...

Lingo

The halfling emerges from hiding, in a place the Redbrands did not expect. With advantage he fires his bow at the sword-wielding thug that's attacking the mage. He then quickly ducks away again.

Lingo vs Redbrand, att w/adv, sword dam, sneak dam, stealth
Neptune rolled 1d20+5,1d20+5,1d6+3,1d6,1d20+7 and got 10, 16, 6, 2, 12
again, your decision about advantage...

DM

Lingo steps out from s spot away from where he was before and fires his bow, hitting the swordsman and wounding him, then steps back into hiding further down the street.

Luminmorn, Ryssa, and Bern are up. I presume Ryssa used Dash last turn to run down the street so she is now 60 feet away.

Situation: Balthazar has a wounded swordsman on him. Bern has a wounded swordsman on him. There are two crossbowmen on the porch, one badly wounded the other not hit.

Initiative order:

Balthazar - 22
Redbrands - 19
Lingo - 15
Luminmorn - 13
Ryssa - 13
Bern - 7

Ryssa


Hearing the altercation, the cleric of Lathander dashed down the street, pulling her short bow and an arrow from her back as she ran. Skidding to a stop, she quickly took in the situation and, figuring that Balthazar was in the worse danger, aimed and fired at the swordsman attacking the mage.

Muttering at the miss, she moved toward the group.

Hit Swordsman: 1d20+4 = 11
Damage Swordsman: 1d6+3 = 9
Ryssa moves 30 feet closer to the group

[OOC: If Ryssa dashed 60 feet last turn (I wasn't sure) can she do anything after firing the arrow and, probably, missing?]

<Bern>

There was little reason to change his target ...

Bern continued attack MikeD rolled 1d20+5,1d8+3 and got 19, 4

DM

Ex - Ryssa can still make her normal move of 30 feet if she chooses to attack. If she uses Dash (double move) then she loses her action. So she can close to 30 feet away this turn.

Bern swings at the Redbrand in front of him, the one he hit on his last swing, and he hits him again, dropping him to the ground at the top of the stairs in a pool of blood.

Ryssa fires an arrow at the swordsman fighting Balthazar but misses.

(Just need Luminmorn's action to finish the round).

Luminmorn

He drew his great axe to swing it at the swordsman.

OOC Don't know the rules for drawing a weapon. He threw and then moved. But his hands were clear so could he draw his axe? If so is there a minus or any penalty?
Did the rolls in any case. Attack 15. Dam 10.
Pandemonium rolled d12+3 and got 10
2015-01-15 02:08:58
2 Luminmorn Attack Redband swordsman
Pandemonium rolled d20+5 and got 15

DM

Pande - No penalty. It is a "Free" action in effect. Drawing or sheathing a weapon, taking a potion out of your backpack, opening a door, etc are all things you can do in addition to your move and attack.

The Dragonborn pulls his giant axe from it's sheath on his back as he closes, swinging at the Redbrand fighting Balthazar and chopping him down.

Situation: 2 Crossbowmen on the porch. Unknown number possibly inside the building.

Balthazar is up......

Initiative order:

Balthazar - 22
Redbrands - 19
Lingo - 15
Luminmorn - 13
Ryssa - 13
Bern - 7

Balthazar

On the ragged edge of collapse from his wounds, Balthazar withdraws, trying to find a safe place out of sight of the crossbowmen.

DM

Balthazar moves across the street and takes shelter on the side of one of the houses there (75% cover).

The door to the Tap House opens and 3 more Redbrands rush out, drawing swords. One charges at Bern, swinging wildly while the other two also draw swords, jump over the railing, and move to attack Luminmorn. The two crossbowmen fire as well. They look for the sources of the arrows that came from the shadows and killed their companion, but can't seem to spot Lingo. So instead they fire at the distant targets. One at the newly arriving Ryssa and the other at the mage who moved across the street.

Redbrands Attack
Zeim rolled d20+3 (Bern),d20+3 (Luminmorn),d20+3 (Luminmorn), d20+3 (Ryssa), d20+3 (Balthazar) and got 23, 13, 9, 12, 6

Bern is hit for 4 points of damage but all the other attacks miss.

Situation: 1 fighting Bern. 2 fighting Luminmorn. 2 crossbowmen on porch (1 badly wounded).

Lingo is up.....

Redbrands - 19

Lingo

Now outnumbered and with some of his companions wounded, the situation has devolved to the point of grave danger. Lingo didn't feel like he was in trouble personally, but the others may not make it. He took aim at the wounded archer on the porch and when the man looked elsewhere, tried to plunk him with an arrow. He then moved quickly back into the full cover of the shadows and would attack from a new location.
