[No.. what I was suggesting is that Chandan would be aware of the noise of combat through an open door just behind him. wink But I think you have covered that now. wink ]

Jaliera

Feeling outnumbered and not a little exposed, she has little alternative but to continue and hope her opponents continue to miss. The hobgoblin looks like it is on its last legs and Jaliera would much rather fight one opponent than two, so she attacks the hobgoblin with her rapier. But she too misses.

Ryssa


Clutching the golden statue in her left hand along with her shield, Ryssa moved as far and as quick as she could, trying to get to the aid of her friends. Seeing Javroar, she spoke in quiet tones but with an insistent voice.

"What is happening? Can we help?"

Davroar

Quickly taking in the scene he replies to Ryssa, "Yep! Another big bugbear over here. And a goblin, and a injured dwarf."

Ryssa


"Is the dwarf Gundren?" she asked, her eyes widening as she prepares a spell to cast against the nearest enemy.

Now that the Shaman is dead, Davroar and Ryssa rush out of the room, moving towards the sounds of combat. Ryssa takes the small golden idol with her. Back on the altar, with Kriv is a chalice, knife, and censer, all of which seems ornamental and likely worth some money.

Back in the hallway, Jaliera continues to fight against King Grol and his Hobgoblin ally, with support from Bern's archery.

In the bedroom, Luminmorn is bending over the dwarf he just healed. The one Chandan thought looked like Gundren, while Chandan watches from the doorway. The dwarf slowly opens his eyes and after a moment, recognition comes into them. "You!" He exclaims.

Back in the hallway, the Hobgoblin and King Grol both attack Jaliera, trying to take her down so they can get to the others. The Hobgoblin's sword cuts deeply into Jaliera's side. Perhaps it is her grunting and flinching under the blow, but King Grol's club sweeps just above her head as she ducks.

As all these moving parts are coming together, behind Bern the Dwarf's eyes briefly glow with a red, hate-filled glint. Both of his hands come up and he slashes at Bern as the Ranger aims at the foes fighting Jaliera.

Kriv

The noble scion noted the location of the objects for later confiscation, but for now honour and dignity decreed they were an irrelevance. He headed swiftly towards the sounds of battle.

Chandan

The dwarf seems to recognise Luminmorn. It must be Gundren then, or perhaps one of his missing brothers.

"Ah! Amazing, Luminorm--- Well done!" He gasps in awe as the dwarf is brought back from the precipice by healing magic.

Again Chandan marvels at this gift, as with Ryssa and Davroar, the ability to heal, make better, to save life. What could be more virtuous?

The monk is too old to learn new tricks though. He has a few of his own, up his threadbare sleeve, but he can only save the innocent by preventing them from being hurt in the first place.

It has its rewards and its costs, as his leg attests to.

"Protect the dwarf!" Chandan says to Luminmorn, the hobbles and hops back through the hallway to support Jaliera.

Two hulking goblinoids tower over the poor girl, perhaps thinking she's easy prey, but she's proving them very wrong.

Recognising the bloody king, Chandan scowls and lunges.

"Hey, King Stupid with Stupid Crown on Stupid Head, it's me again!!" He shouts, trying to draw the bugbear's attention.

Probably not necessary, as he hurtles in with his spear and the highest bolley kick he can muster.

[Chandan hits twice, total of 16 damage!

Zeim, can you check my rolls and see if I'm doing them right? It feels like Chandan's kicking some serious butt since we got into the castle!! I'm not complaining, I just want to be sure I'm not doing something wrong. Ta.]

Chandan moves to support Jaliera, and hits King Grol with both his spear and a punch.

(OOC - Neil - If you roll 23 & 19 to hit and 9 & 7 damage you will do good damage. Note: There's no advantage for flanking in 5e. It's an optional rule in the DMG and we're not using it.)

Kriv rushes back to support the on-going combat as well. Coming around the corner he can see Bern in combat with a dwarf that looks very much like Gundren, their employer and the one they were seeking to free. A bit above that Jaliera and Chandan are fighting a Hobgoblin and a large Bugbear wearing a dented crown.

(AJ - If Kriv doesn't use his action to attack he can use it to "Dash", which gives him a double move. I moved him up further on the map for you.)

Bern and Luminmorn can go.

He cursed himself for being so trusting. He dropped his bow, pulled his rapier and attacked.

Luminmorn

Seeing it is Gundren, he lets flow a bit more of his gift from the Great Dragon. He knows that the dwarf has to be able to walk at a minimum. The Paladin lays hands upon the dwarf once again. "Feel better," he offered.

Luminmorn will heal another 4 points, so 5 total.
It won't fix the dwarf, but it ought to make things better.

[Thanks Zeim. I guess my last run of good dice rolls was in that corridor in the Redbrand Hideout, so I'd forgotten how effective Chandan could be. wink Amazing how a run of poxy rolls can do that. MikeD, this probably means your luck's overdue, so keep rolling!!]

Jaliera

She is so relieved to have Davroar by her side and to feel his healing power flow into her. She had been feeling really threatened. However she cannot afford to let her guard down and must continue to fight. She is also aware of Chandan's intervention and suddenly she is not feeling so alone. She knows Bern is behind her too and there are sounds that the others are gathering. Maybe they will win through after all.

DM - Dugan - Davroar can't just run past the Doppleganger without it getting an OA on him. Let me know if you want to allow the OA or not. If not, your only other choice for healing Jaliera is if you have a ranged healing spell.

Bern turns, pulling his sword, and strikes back at the 'Gundren' who attacked him, striking a solid blow.

Luminmorn heals the 'Gundren' in front of him for a few more points. (Note: Pande - Luminmorn can use his LOH as an action and still move, if you want. Or he can stay with 'Gundren'. Up to you.)

Davroar rushes past the battle between Bern and 'Gundren'. As he passes, 'Gundren' slashes at him slicing thru his armour.

Jaliera

She recalls Whisper adding her thanks to the clever bird for fetching help. And flashes a quick smile of gratitude to Davroar also.

Again she focuses on the hobgoblin, assuming that Chandan will keep the bugbear occupied. She now thinks she might have been wiser to use a spell but buoyed by the added confidence of having Davroar by her side, she attacks with new enthusiasm.

Jaliera's attack drops the wounded Hobgoblin.

Just as Jaliera is buoyed by the sight of reinforcements arriving from all directions, so her foes are demoralized by seeing the number of enemies they are facing suddenly triple.

King Grol and the Doppleganger both turn and flee.

Jaliera and Chandan can get an OA against King Grol. Bern, Ryssa, and Kriv can get an OA on the Doppleganger.

Note: An OA is a single attack roll. If anyone (such as Chandan) would normally get multiple attacks as part of a regular attack action, in an OA you don't get those. Just one roll.

After the OA's, if the enemies are still alive, King Grol ran off to the north and turned to the east, disappearing from view. The Doppelganger ran to the south, and out the door to the stairs there, also now out of view. It is up to you if you choose to chase or let them go.

After all the OAs are done, it would be Chandan and Kriv's turns first.

Ryssa


Seeing the fake Gundren break off combat and turn to flee, the cleric of Lathander lashed out with her dagger, but missed badly.

OOC - Exeter - Sorry, an OA MUST be a melee attack. No spells. She can attack with her dagger or let it run past.

However, it is clear either way that neither foe will be killed by the OAs, so it is now Chandan and Kriv's turns. They can either run out of the building, trying to chase down the fleeing foes, or let them go and do something else.
