Nilvén feels relieved to find the tiny owl fully recovered. In fact, it makes her glad since she had expended the limited use spell by casting it on the owl scout and saved her successfully.
She has made herself comfortable in a sitting position by folding her legs under her weight and preparing to drift off to sleep when the Cleric found her off-guard. Ollezall has finished her wooden necklace and has been asking about the ritual she performs regularly, while she has been watching him with a blank expression.
"I assume that you're not familiar with the lifestyle of monks who belong to certain monastic tradition, these rituals help us to draw energy from the nature. Thanks for the necklace. If you believe that blessing it will strengthen its power against fiends or undeads, go ahead."
(@Potaido, Zhou is not a vampire or werewolf, and certainly she's not ill. The medicine check should be dealt by Technopagan.)
If you need me to take a watch, just tell me, I'll be over there. Says Cyrasil, and sits below a large tree, a some distance away from the group (but close enough to be seen or heard if he wants to). While sitting, he picks few fallen twigs and branches and weaves them into shapes of small figures, mostly animal looking. When he has several of these figures he places them among the roots of the tree he is sitting under, closes his eyes and starts his rest.

OOC: well that's a relief, werewolf is fine, vampire is undead and kelemvor would demand Ollezall killed Zhou as a matter of priority. He despises undead as a perversion to the sanctity of death.
" Oh, you mean Ki... Yea some monks I have met tried to teach me, that's the energy that lets you run up walls, catch arrows and punch ghosts, right? I still don't get it, but that's okay. I will go ahead with the ceremony. The dead deserve their eternal rest; anyone who disrupts that rest is evil, and the beings that result are abominations. Kelemvor would dictate I arm you as best I can to defeat such a perversion of his divine realm. As an aside, the last gods who ruled over the domain, jergul and myrkul appeared to like undead terrorising the living, and their followers are still around, raising the dead in the name of a retired god; I sometimes still get asked if I know necromantic rites *Ollezall looks repulsed* , like I would ever willingly teach those, or execute them myself..... Sorry, got off track. Give me an hour, you're welcome to watch me perform the ceremony, but I know you probably want to sleep. I wont wake you; I'll leave your necklace near my pack for when you wake up"
Ollezall takes the completed necklace. It is woven out of natural fibers Ollezall had beaten, conditioned and woven to be malleable and comfortable against the skin. Around the necklace Ollezall worked in porous beads from the surrounding bushes and plants. At the front of the necklace Ollezall worked the coin into the necklace as a fastening loop/brooch.
Ollezall finds a quiet place away from the group. Taking out the holy water, Ollezall steeps the necklace in the water; this will provide physical protection against undead
*Zhou doesn't look like a vampire or werewolf, surely she would have stopped me from dousing her necklace in holy water and putting a silver coin in it as a brooch otherwise. I honestly didn't know monks needed to perform a ritual to gather this Ki they talk about, I thought it came from inside them passively... Well, shows how different clerics and monks are, chalk and cheese in our instruction*
Ollezall now begins the ceremony to bless the necklace. Zhou didn't want this necklace to be dedicated to any deity, so Ollezall will use the same rite used to make holy water. The space immediately around Ollezall darkens and anyone around Ollezall would feel the heat being drawn out of the air as Ollezall begins to chant in a foreign language most mortal races wouldn't understand. Ollezall's skin grows pallid as he continues to chant, close perception would reveal frost appearing on the blades of grass and Ollezall's breath shooting from his mouth like a jet of steam. This continues for an hour and 10 minutes before Ollezall whispers the final words of the chant and the light of the moon penetrates the darkness the strange darkness and shines upon the now blessed necklace.
Ollezall looks physically fatigued and begins to shiver, taking the necklace in white knuckled hands stiff with cold. Ollezall makes his way back to camp, sets the necklace on top of his pack and starts warming himself back up in his bedroll. *It's not pure coincidence we are supposed to do that ritual in the light of a hearth or bonfire; the dead don't feel the cold during the funeral rites, but the living to witness sure do* Ollezall thinks. Ollezall sleeps until his watch.
Nilvén wakes up in the middle of the night and attempts to stretch her body to improve the function and remove the soreness. She seems well-rested and decides to take the third watch. She will pull out her ancient scroll to carry it outside after she had secured the necklace made of wooden beads around her neck. She guards the place cautiously while trying to sense the presence of something that should not be around the camp site.
Nilvén suddenly goes completely silent when she attempts to sense the rustling sound. Without alarming anyone, she will search for a natural cover in order to hide and observe the intruders stealthily.
Cyrasil remains calm, he slowly prepares his bow, but makes sure to avoid other movement, hoping to remain unseen. When his bow is prepared, he makes a bird call ((Thaumaturgy)), hoping the others will remember it as the signal he used earlier.
Nilvén attempts to draw out her Shortsword when she will try to dodge any incoming attack from the Kobolds by hurling herself at the ground with a roll of her torso and moving away from the impact of weapons, ammunition or unarmed strike. In fact, she's been waiting for the party to wake up and offer assistance with additional reinforcement.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Attack: 16 Damage: 1
firebolt..
Cerlinde was not sleeping, (elf) but was studying her spellbook. Her owl darts towards the face of and distracts the lead kobold (same one Brin hit) and she shoots a firebolt as well (with advantage)…
Ollezall wakes with a jump as he sees heavily armed kobolds approaching. Ollezall casts toll-the-dead for 3 ; WIS 15 save, against the approaching kobolds, targeting the closest one.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Zhou has been waiting patiently for the right time to strike at one of the Kobolds with heavy armor in order to weaken their resilience against the attack of the patrolling party. She will hold onto the Shortsword tightly and attack the opponent while attempting to inflict slashing damage on her target. As a bonus action, she'll try to shove the creature on the ground after letting out a guttural grunt of irritation.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ollezall looks toward the kobold attacking with a spear. Ollezall's voice darkens and becomes harsh, the air around him grows cold and Ollezall extends a finger towards the kobold as he speaks the elvish word for 'death'.
toll-the-dead for 8 if the target is missing any of its hit points; WIS 15 save.

Nilvén and Cyrasil both hear a rustling in the brush. It is very quiet, intermittent and seems to be coming from all around.

When Nilvén attempts to hide an undulating, swirling bolt of energy hurtles at her from somewhere in the distance

Flying over head and bursting into colors
Kobold 1 pops up out of the brush with a blowgun to his lips

Kobold 2 appears out the brush as well firing a blowgun at Cyrasil

Each dives back behind cover as the, more heavily armed and armored Kobolds rush from the bushes and close the distance

Unless your PC is a sound sleeper, everyone is awake from the commotion, confused but awake.

Brin will send a blast of fire into the first kobold he spots, and move away from them, and into some sort of cover from the ranged ones.
To hit: 26 Damage: 1
Attack: 16 Damage: 1
firebolt..
Cerlinde was not sleeping, (elf) but was studying her spellbook. Her owl darts towards the face of and distracts the lead kobold (same one Brin hit) and she shoots a firebolt as well (with advantage)…
like Brin- she retreats behind a tree for cover…
Ollezall wakes with a jump as he sees heavily armed kobolds approaching. Ollezall casts toll-the-dead for 3 ; WIS 15 save, against the approaching kobolds, targeting the closest one.

Cerlinde con saving throw. The blowgun dart stabs into her shoulder and she can feel the poison entering her body.
seeing the danger based on the sheer number of Kobolds, she casts sleep at them, trying to take down as many as she can..
24 sleep hit points affected..
Brin sends another blast of fire at the same warrior kobold...
Attack: 10 Damage: 1
Ollezall looks toward the kobold attacking with a spear. Ollezall's voice darkens and becomes harsh, the air around him grows cold and Ollezall extends a finger towards the kobold as he speaks the elvish word for 'death'.

OOC: well that was anticlimactic....
