This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The young white-haired noble looks over the chaotic battlefield. The team had already found different avenues to victory, watering the plants, cracking the runepots and simply use herbicidal magic to deal with the necrotic shrubs themselves. "Good work, use water those of you who can."He calls out to encourage the others in the team.
Not seeing any more water available, Daryos swiftly loads his crossbow, takes a quick aim at the cracked pot that the minotaur is working on, and pulls the trigger.
Vesna waves her free hand helplessly. "Just... agh," words seem to escape her yet again, so she just tries to pour some water from the pitcher on the dirt/soil she can see of the plant next to her, careful not to pour on the ice too.

Daryos fires a crossbow bolt at the damaged pot. As he takes aim, the bolt streaks towards the pot but fails to connect properly, skipping across its surface before burying itself into the wall.
OOC: So you are trying to get the water in the pot for S1 correct? It is currently on its side so you can attempt to get the water in there but it may be a bit of a struggle, especially with it thrashing around. give me another athletics / acrobatics check to toss the water into the pot.
OOC: yeah so you are still next to S1 (which is on its side) and then you soaked S4 by tossing water on it prior.
Vesna manages to crouch and toss the water from the picture into the potted plant. The water fills the pot before starting to run out on to the rest of the frozen plant. When the water this the pile of ice coating the shrub, it quickly turns to ice as well. The ice expands and spreads back into the pot before exploding outwards, sending porcelain flying around the room. As soon as the pot explodes, The frozen shub stops moving and no longer seems to be growing or losing leaves. It is just a silent, frozen, spilt in half shurb...
The jazz muzak in the background gets a tiny bit louder when the plant is destroyed. Also anyone with detect magic up notices the following....
When the pot is destroyed, the necrotic magic in the pot dissipates. You also notice that the picture of Omin that was turned around is no longer glowing, but the one of Jim Darkmagic across the room is instead....
Sinister Shrub - S2 - Is looking both sickly and thirsty as the poised shrub continues to lash out with its branches, hoping to pull some nourishment from Nesyax once more! Attack: 2 Damage: 3
Stabby shrub - S3 - Is starting to sprout more leaves and buds thanks to the water provided by the melted ice cube, but it is still thirsty and slashes out towards the Verdan! Attack: 17 Damage: 2
Slaughter shrub -S4- The shrub with the pot full of water begins to rapidly change. Rather than simply returning to the boring shurb it was before, it is now full of beautiful buds and leaves! it isn't growing so much that it is expanding to take up additional space but it is much fuller and the blooming flowers smell sweet and delicious. Any evidence of claw-like branches are gone and replaced with thick foliage.
When the stabby shrub strikes out at the verdan, a small needle like branch nearly pierces Stasyn's eye before he quickly waves his arm and a shimmering shield manages to deflect the attack.
Seeing the strange plant quiet and calm now that it's planter has been exploded, Kitaer looks for his next target. As the Slaughter Shrub (S4) seems to be the biggest and most dangerous, Kitaer points his horns in that direction and charges!
GreatAxe vs S4: 14 to hit for 7 damage...
If that hits then Kitaer follows up with his horns once more, bending and twisting to try to hook his horns into the plant and/or the container and throw it ten feet up into the air... (Strength Save DC 13)

We're doing one small murder-y thing for a bigger, better reason. The ends justify the means.
Actually! The axe slams hard into the pot, sending a few small pieces scattering across the floor and deep cracks spreading through the porcelain container. The pot is still intact however even though it is pairly damaged.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The minotaur hooks the damaged pot and tosses it straight up into the air. it spins and flips violently before landing back down to the ground taking 1 damage.
The remaining leaves and buds on the sinister shrub turn (S2) yellow and then brown before falling off... the trunk of the shrub momentarily goes limp as it sags down over the side of the pot.
Stasyn focuses on removing the hazardous ice in the center of the floor, melting it with his fire bolt.

"Keep watering that one!"The young white-haired noble calls out in afirm tone, briefly pointing to the Stabby Shrub, then reloading his crossbow, taking a swift aim before firing it at the Sinister Shrub next to the girl with the short blue hair.
Light Crossbow: 16 Piercing: 8
"And turn that painting around to face the wall too." He adds, pointing to the picture that is starting to glow.
"Oh," Vesna winces as the flower pot bursts after her attempt at watering the soil. This is not what she had in mind when she poured that water down. Her bottom lip quivers slightly as her eyes stare for a long moment at the dead plant. "I am SO sorry! This is not what I meant to do!" She mutters weakly, blinking rapidly as her eyes start to get teary. Thankfully, she saves herself the embarrassment of actually crying about a deadly shrub, managing to supress the emotion for now.
As a very non-violent person, Vesna just walks carefully to plant s3, water pitcher still clutched hard in her hands, so she can proceed to water the shrub like a very stressed gardener.

"I need more water. Wait there is an icy patch on the floor"
He aims his wand at the icy patch and fires and fire bolt at it in hopes of melting it.
Fire Bolt
Attack: 13 Damage: 1
Kitaer swings hard with his axe, but his blade fails to bite into the pot as it skates across its smooth rounded surface!ooc: I will resolve Stasyn's post after nesyax goes
(If not too late to add bless, attack becomes 14+ 4 - if too late then no worry, my bad!)

Actually! The axe slams hard into the pot, sending a few small pieces scattering across the floor and deep cracks spreading through the porcelain container. The pot is still intact however even though it is pairly damaged.
This time Nesyax is able to easily avoid the shrub's attack. She again releases a puff of poison gas at the plant beside her (S2).
(CON Save DC 13 or take 6 damage)

The minotaur hooks the damaged pot and tosses it straight up into the air. it spins and flips violently before landing back down to the ground taking 1 damage.
The Plant (S4) is now on its side andprone. The pot is badly damaged but still intact.
S2 prepares for another swing when Nesyax launches another burst of poisonous gas towards the creature.
S2 con save 3
The remaining leaves and buds on the sinister shrub turn (S2) yellow and then brown before falling off... the trunk of the shrub momentarily goes limp as it sags down over the side of the pot.

The crossbow bolt flies right of the pot and imbeds itself deep into the wall!
