Felix will attack Yuanti 5, releasing an arrow at it! 

Hit: 12

Damage: 6

Gertrude steps forward in front of yuan-ti 6, to stay away from the cage in which the triceratops is held. She is trying to spot how the door of the cage is secured (perception: 7 )

Then she swings her greataxe at yuan-ti 5. 

to attack 19 for damage 9

Then she swings again: 

to attack 28 for damage 18 plus extra damage for the critic: 10

Soakosh is a quite fat human of non Chultan origin. Despite the normal appearance, he does have a forked tongue which uses to utter mystic words. Keeping the gaze on Gertrude, he says: "You, my dear, go in the armoury, south of here, and take what you like."

OOG Gertrude feels compelled to follow that instruction. Roll a Wisdom saving throw.

Does Kurma recognize the spell ? It is Suggestion (I know it) ?

The animal pen where the triceratops is confined is not even locked. One just needs to pull the movable section of the pen. 

Kurma moves a few meters back, behind Gertrude, letting some space for his companions to rush in the room. 
He then grabs his religious focus and looks intensely to the fat human. "Oghma, grant me knowledge, give me access to this one's mind"

(OOC: trying to access his thoughts using 1 channel divinity: Read Thougts, DC WIS 15. If it works, I can cast for free suggestion on the creature + The target automatically fails its saving throw against the spell. )

Brunella runs down the hall, squeezing past Dragonbait, and positions herself next to the lizardman warrior. She attacks the Yuan-Ti twice with her great blade (Attack YT 6)

Soakosh WIS save: 14

 
Kurma can sense the thoughts of the creature...so much hate and anger...
He makes eye contact with it and suggests
"My friend, I think this is all but a misendenstanding. Clearly, you can see your people are under a curse. We have been sent here to help you. You should welcome us and help us. Drop your weapon and help us."

Soakosh: " Everyone, ssstop! Pleassse! We have to help them. We have to take them to Rasss Nsssi. They can join usss!"

Oniss stops a beat to see what happens after the creature pleas for a stop.  Feeling the tension in the air he keeps his crossbow at the ready and holds his action.

Looking for the reaction of the other Yuan-ti, Kurma asks: " Tell me first of your people, the more information we have, the better we will be able to help. Why are you interested in the Soulmonger and the cubes ?"

 Soakosh: "SSSoulmonger?? What'sss the Soulmonger, SSShelled creature? You will know when you are one of usss. The Nightmare SSSpeaker can make you one of usss. You come?"

« Give us one minute, dear friend. »

Kurma then turns to his companion. « I’m sorry, I panicked and charmed him. What do you want to do. Should we follow and talk to their leader? Oniss you’re the most charismatic here, do you think you coud get the cubes without fighting ? »

Oniss pauses a bit and replies to Kurma.

"I feel dialogue may be helpful.  They appear to be no friends with the Red Wizards...or us, but we may be able to change that.  Without a parley I feel it will lead to more violence in these halls after this short magical reprieve.  I will fight along side all of you but it is still unknown to us the number in these halls?"

//OOC - or we can free the dinosaur and slap it on the butt as a distraction and explore the other way?//
