Martha rushes toward Strahd, taking an attack from Ireena if necessary, and will Recklessly Attack the devil Strahd. Her rage will give her 1d6+7 radiant damage for the first attack and +3 damage for her second with the Sunsword. “I’m going to run you through! This blade isn’t too happy about what you did to it all those years ago!” Attack 1: 28 Damage: 29 radiant! Attack 2: 20 Damage: 16 radiant! The first strike is a two-handed stab into the shoulder of the vampire, and then Martha will cleave down his chest for the second.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.

Oh jesus, finally. Something that goes my way LOL...obviously, too late of course.
Martha, you are overwhelmed with feelings of trust and protection over Strahd. These...other people, including Ireena, are trying to kill your lifelong friend! You MUST NOT let that happen! From now on, you will protect Strahd at all costs. And that means attacking them, if they attempt to hurt Strahd.

“Huh. You know... you’re right. The Abbot has a point! Strahd isn’t beyond redemption! And I won’t let you all destroy him! I can save him! But first, that means stopping you three.” Martha turns the sun sword at the rest of them. How does ol’ Sun Blade McGee feel about Martha’s heel turn?
OOC: Haha, radiant nun hits hard ;) Given that I’ve done this exact strategy to my players, I know how effective this is going to be... sorry Briella and Kia.

OOC: Out of curiosity, how does one un-charm a fellow PC who has been charmed? Per the spell: "If it fails it is charmed by you until the spell ends or until you or your companions do something harmful to it." Does that mean if I sling an insult towards Martha (aka "do something harmful to it"), she'll be uncharmed? Or do at least 1 HP of damage to her, she'll be released from the spell?
Each time she receives damage, she can save again, each time. It lasts until Strahd ends it, or is dead. Which is very soon because of that damn sword.
If you are especially VERBALLY hurtful to a charmed target, it depends on the burn.
OOC: Oh really? I thought that Strahd’s charm only breaks if he damages me or if 24 hours pass. Not that I’m arguing with you, but just wanted to help out ;)

It's Martha's turn, and no, when Strahd moves, it doesn't trigger OA. He is 30' away now.
OOC: Alright, I’m back

You hear a scream of shock and anquish in your mind, but it doesn't matter. You understand now. Everything is clear. And you will succeed. Protect.
Protect.

I would have done this earlier had I known the sunsword hit so hard.

Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?

Ends after 24 hours or if Strahd dies, it says, and Strahd can end it as a bonus action. Which he won't lol.
OOC: Yep, that’s what I thought. We are gonna win this fair and square or not at all!
