As the last Helmed Horror he faced clattered to the ground in a heap of dented metal and fading arcane light, Trystane turned his gaze toward the remaining vampire spawn. His yellow-amber eyes gleamed with predatory focus, his trollblooded form still crackling faintly with residual lightning. The quicklings darted between foes, but Trystane moved with calm, deliberate precision, his instincts driving him to strike decisively.

The first vampire spawn lunged toward him, claws outstretched, and Trystane was forced to block with his bare arm. But then, his own first strike was a savage swipe, claws tearing through undead flesh as arcs of lightning licked at the wound. The creature collapsed, lifeless, before it could recover.

Without pause, he pivoted to the next spawn. A second strike cleaved through its side, and as it recoiled in pain, Trystane leaped forward, driving his claws down in a final, electrified slash. The vampire fell in a smoldering heap, its unnatural form crumpling.

"Two down," Trystane rumbled, his voice low and charged with satisfaction. His stance shifted slightly, ready to face the next foe.

Leaving the Quicklings to dispatch the final vampire spawn, Trystane turned to the towering Shambling Mound, its mass pulsing with unnatural vitality. His fists struck hard, tearing through vines, but each burst of lightning only rejuvenated the creature. Realizing his power was aiding it, Trystane growled in frustration. Unsheathing his dagger, he sliced his palm, igniting the blade with crimson flames fueled by his own blood (6 necrotic damage to himself). Eyes blazing with determination, he stepped forward, the fiery dagger ready to carve through the monstrous plant. "Let’s see how you handle this," he snarled, preparing to strike.

Action: two unarmed strikes

Lightning Absorption. Whenever the shambling mound is subjected to lightning damage, it takes no damage and regains a number of hit points equal to the lightning damage dealt.

The Invisible Stalker, frustrated by its repeated failures, lunged at Necyra once more.  However, the creature's attacks were met with a flurry of evasive maneuvers, its claws striking only empty air.  With each missed attack, the creature's desperation grew, its movements becoming increasingly erratic.  Necyra, seizing the opportunity, unleashed another Toll the Dead spell at the Invisible Stalker 3 (IS3) (DC17 WIS saving throw versus taking 18 necrotic damage).  The creature, weakened and demoralized, was no match for her divine power!

Necyra, her eyes scanning the battlefield, noticed that the Vampire Spawns were weakening.  Only one remained, a desperate creature fighting for its survival.  "Focus your attack on that last Vampire Spawn!" she commanded her Quicklings, her voice filled with urgency. "Overwhelm it!"

OOC: This experiment, one big fight, will be the last time I throw such a large combat at you. I wanted to get sample-flavor of the wandering monsters and I think I went overboard. In the coming chapters, I plan to reduce the number of combats, just skipping unnecessary ones, and I will try to focus on one or two RP encounters with storytelling. Hang in there folks, we are nearly done with this Mega Encounter.

Necyra, her eyes fixed on the Invisible Stalker (IS3), raised her hand, a mote of radiant light forming at her fingertips.  With a focused concentration, she unleashed a Sacred Flame, a searing bolt of divine energy that struck the creature with devastating force.  IS3 must pass a DC17 DEX saving throw or suffer 16 radiant damage.

"Finish it!" she commanded her Quicklings, their tiny forms converging on the Invisible Stalker, their attacks relentless.

With the shambling mound succumbing to Yurgojin's attacks, Trystane turns to the invisible stalker. Unsure whether the creature will also resist his lightning attacks, or might even be insensible to fire, he decides to drop his flaming dagger and rely on his claws as he is most comfortable with those. Anything will count as he doesn't even see where he should direct his attacks at (Attacks are a disadvantage, right?)
