Hell Hound 1 WIS ST 6
El makes their way towards the rocks, they don’t appear to do much but suddenly the hound winces as it takes 4 psychic damage but shrugs off El’s song before it hurts him any more.
Gnarls shouts out as he runs forwards with both swords. He plunges his first sword into the creature but finds something very squishy which catches him off guard and makes him miss with his second swing.

JimJar steps away quickly with his crossbow at the ready, he fires off a shot that hits the hound in the side, sinking in beneath the flesh, the orange glow from the creatures throat becomes brighter as it takes the damage. Drendil rushes forwards with both of his claws, with a flurry of scratches, he manages to dig his claw into the beast and form a large gash that begins bleeding out a dark, almost black liquid. Buppido then runs up, excited at the fact that he's once more in combat, he swings with both daggers but only manages to sink one into the beast.
After Buppido's Dagger sinks into the hound, it looks at the small Derro and sees him as a meal as it opens its mouth and takes a large chunk out of his left arm. Buppido drops one dagger as the hound refuses to let go as its throat glows once more and a flame erupts and begins burning Buppido's arm, the pain is immense and Buppido begins to laugh before it all gets too much for him and he passes out. As this is happening, a second hound makes its way out of the hole, it sees Tobias first and runs towards him. Tobias simply bats the hound away with his shield as it goes skidding across the ground.

Cyndral, El, Gnarls, Shishakli, Tobias, Verim, Dendril, JimJar, Buppido (U)
Shishakli brings out his shield and holds his sword firmly, he swings it around in his hand so that the hilt rests on the underside of his hand and he plunges it into the already injured hound. The blade sinks in to the skin and continues under the vertebral column. The glowing throat of the hound begins to fade as the creature stops moving and lets out a final snarl.

Cyndral, El, Gnarls, Shishakli, Tobias, Verim, Dendril, JimJar, Buppido (U)
"Be careful! There's another!"Tobias calls out after batting away the second hound's bite.
"Bring the other down quick! I will hold this one off!" He turns to face the second beast. "Torm shield me!" A shimmering field then surrounds the cleric. He tightens his grip around his mace and strikes back at his attacker.
Verim darts forward and stands ready (move to K16) he slashes down with his Hexed Sickle as the fangs of the snake looking sickle try and sink into the Hell Hound.
The first Hound falls just as Tobias shouts out. As the shimmering shield covers Tobias, he swings at the hound, hitting it in a similar way to the first, bashing in a large portion of its face, one of the creatures eyes are almost completely shut, unable to see properly, the hound doesn't know that Verim has approached until the snake shaped sickle is plunged into its shoulder joint.

El, realising that their magic wasn't quite as effective as they had hoped, decides to go for a more traditional approach and hurls their two handaxes at the new opponent. (El will move to H15 before attacking and if possible draw their hand crossbow but if not I'll do that next turn)
Attack 1: 5 Damage: 8
Attack 2: 14 Damage: 4
OoC: oof on that first attack roll, don't suppose El would be flanking? lmao
(OOC Flanking isn't actually an official rule, drawing your second handaxe would have been your interation for this round, so you'll have to wait until the next round to draw your crossbow)
El moves forwards. The second they are able to see the creature, they throw both handaxes. The axes fly past Verim but El had aimed just a slight bit too high. The axes land with a few clangs on the hard floor behind the hound.
Cyndral, El, Gnarls, Shishakli, Tobias, Verim, Dendril, JimJar, Buppido (U)
Watching the first foe fall just as he readied another strike, Cyndral awkwardly pivots and lunges towards the remaining one, allowing his weight to fall behind the blade and compensate for the lack of precision.
Cyndral runs and stands next to Verim, just about squeezing into the gap between his companion and the raised platform. His slightly peculiar method of fighting works as he lunges and manages to get the tip of the blade into the hound.

Gnarls runs quickly up the steps of the platform, unable to see any other way to get to the hound, he leaps off the side of the ledge, both of his swords at the ready. He attempts to land his blades into the beast as he falls but the hound leaps out of the way to avoid his attack.

JimJar moves back to stand with Shishakli, aiming his crossbow at the remaining hound, he takes aim and fires. The bolt flies through the air and into its target. Drendil moves up, unable to get close enough, he stops and waits behind Verim for a chance to strike. Buppido remains on the floor, bleeding out but it appears to have slowed slightly.
Still focused on the person that caves its skull in, the hound takes another chance to try and bite Tobias. Its vision impaired and body failing, it struggles but leaps forwards before being pushed back by the magical forcefield that now surrounds the half-Orc
El draws their crossbow but unable to get a clear shot they decide to channel magic in order to avoid hitting their companions but still wanting to help them. They shout at the hellhound not entirely cohesively a string of insults and curses, lacing them with magic in the hopes that they can disorient the beast. vicious mockery
Wisdom Saving Throw: 13
Damage 2
(if El can use their movement to begin moving onto the centre dias thing then they'll do that too, aiming to get above the hellhound)
Tobias glancing behind him to find the other beast slain. He also sees a body face down, who can't say. "Up and at 'em!" he shouts to his fallen companion. Turning back to the hound, he whips his mace around and across its face.

WIS ST 9
For such a nice and friendly person, it comes as quite a surprise to most to hear a string of cursing and insults coming from El’s mouth as they run up onto the platform above the hound. People say that words hurt and in this case, they certainly do. You see the hound wince once more as the magic tipped words strike hard.
A bright glow surrounds Buppido for about 3 seconds before dying out, you can see the holy energy coursing through his veins as they glow beneath his skin and his badly burnt arm begins to fix itself. Tobias then swings once more for the hounds head, anticipating another swing, the hound moves quickly to avoid the mace.

More restrained with the raised area to his back, Cyndral adjusts his footwork to avoid any more clumsy efforts at swinging the sword. Thrusts, he's finally learned, have been far more effective with this weapon than swinging it like a chopper. He lines his body up in a more vertical stance, not unlike a poor imitation of a fencer, and more carefully stabs at the beast this time. He admires the look of the Drow blade as he does so, relenting yet again that not everything to come from their cruel culture has been awful.
