Stormraider Keep (A M.E.T.A.L. Campaign)

Initiative: 23

"Aelric get out of there!" Elyria shouts as the Trolls emerge from the cave. She then uses her woodland magic to blanket the trolls in a green faerie fire (Dex save 14) before falling back to the tree (Q10) where she tries to hide (bonus action to hide even if observed if lightly obscured) Stealth: 27

(For the map I used Mythic Table. It's a free online program that I think is raising funds through Kickstarter.  Fairly basic, but I can just paste in a map image, it's fairly simple to overlay the grid, then put in tokens.  It allows for "Fog of War" too, but didn't need that here.  Think it's usable as virtual table top.  You can generate links for players to connect into the same maps.) 

(DEX Saves: 9, 18, 16, 4) 

(To be continued...) 

Troll 1 and Troll 4 are affected by the green faerie fire.  Elyria then successfully hides. 

Aurelius javelin hits Troll 4. (The attack would have had Advantage but that is moot since it already hit.)

(DEX Save for Troll 1 and 3: 15, 16)

(To be continued...) 

Both trolls managed to dodge the lightning from the javelin, taking only half damage. 

Trolls 1 and 2 move forward to engage with Aurelius: 
(Troll 1 Claw: Attack: Attack: 16 Damage: 12 slash)
(Troll 1 Claw: Attack: Attack: 19 Damage: 9 slash)
(Troll 1 Bite: Attack: 16 Damage: 5 pierce)
(Troll 2 Claw: Attack: Attack: 18 Damage: 14 slash)
(Troll 2 Claw: Attack: Attack: 23 Damage: 7 slash)
(Troll 2 Bite: Attack: 10 Damage: 6 pierce)

Troll 3 moves around the others and engages Flynt: 
(Troll 3 Claw: Attack: Attack: 24 Damage: 12 slash)
(Troll 3 Claw: Attack: Attack: 12 Damage: 7 slash)
(Troll 3 Bite: Attack: 24 Damage: 9 pierce)

Troll 4 moves forward but is stuck behind Trolls 1 and 2.  

(Flynt's turn for Round 1) 

Flynt uses his reaction to trigger his stone rune in an attempt to charm troll 3. Wis(DC12)

On a failure he will move back away his full thirty feet. His first attack will be on troll 3.

Attack: 17 Damage: 15

Attack: 22 Damage: 19

Attack: 13 Damage: 17

If Flynt hits the troll takes an extra 11 of fire Damage as finery shackles appear. Make a Str che (DC12) or be restrained.

On a success he will step around the troll and hold his action as a reaction. When troll 4 comes to with in 20 ft Flynt will speak the command word that causes his rope of entanglement to shoot forward entangled troll 4 unless he makes a Dex save (DC15)

 (In case it wasn't understood, Flynt uses his sharpshooter feat on each attack.)

With suprising agility, Aurelius dodges all but one claw attack from troll one. 

(Don't forget the blinkies :)

(Troll 3 WIS Save: 18)

(23, 16, 8)

Troll 3 manages to resist the effects of Flynt's rune.  (I'm assuming "failure" means troll makes the save.) Two of the shots land and he uses his other rune to create fiery shackles. (Troll 3 STR Check: 15)

The troll manages to break free of the fiery shackles and is not restrained. 

(Thanks, I had forgotten the Blink Dogs. Adding them in now.) 

Sozi and Acorn, moving before the trolls, hang back near Elyria.  

Aurelius' Blink Dog charges up next to Aurelius, attacks Troll 2, then blinks back 40 ft. 

(Bite Attack: 12 Damage: 2)

The attack misses the troll. 

(End of Round 1. Acorn will be first for Round 2) 

Round 2

Acorn runs forward and attacks Troll 2 and the blinks back 40 ft. to O16. 
(Bite Attack: Attack: 20 Damage: 3)

Sozi runs forward as well to attack Troll 2 as well then blinks back 40 ft. to M16
(Bite Attack: Attack: 13 Damage: 7)

(Technically Sozi is after Aurelius.  Elyria and then Aurelius are up next followed by the trolls.) 

From her hidden position Elyria loosens an elven arrow at Troll 3.
Longbow: 23 Damage: 11
"Can you hold them Aurelius, or should I call for backup?"
She then swiftly hides again.
Bonus action stealth: 16

"Ouf!... Well.... Hélas!... I'm... Uhh!... holding my... Yikes! ... own so far.....(Prends ça!)... but.... a little help never hurts!"

Aurelius will call upon his Fey Presence to intimidate the nearby trolls (1 and 2, possibly 3). (DC 15 WIS save)

(No 10 ft. cube would include 3, so it's just 1 and 2. Troll 1 WIS Save: 7, Troll 2 WIS Save: 2)

Both trolls are intimidated and move away from Aurelius. Troll 1 moves left to E6-F7. Troll 2 moves right to S6-T7.  (Both create an AoO for Aurelius,  so he can attack one of them.)

Troll 4 moves forward to attack Aurelius:

(Troll 4 Claw: Attack: Attack: 20 Damage: 9 slash)
(Troll 4 Claw: Attack: Attack: 19 Damage: 12 slash)
(Troll 4 Bite: Attack: 19 Damage: 8 pierce)

Troll 3 continues to attack Flynt:

(Troll 3 Claw: Attack: Attack: 24 Damage: 9 slash)
(Troll 3 Claw: Attack: Attack: 10 Damage: 8 slash)
(Troll 3 Bite: Attack: 18 Damage: 7 pierce)

(1)

Aurelius' blink dog comes up along his right side and attacks Troll 4. (Attack: 11, Damage: 5)

The blink dog's attack misses. 

(Flynt is up, then will be back to Elyria, Aurelius, plus other blink dogs.)

(the 10 foot cube i was thinking of starts in M8, goes two spaces west to K8, two spaces north to K6, and two spaces East to M6, which would get a piece of each troll, I think)

The paladin lashes out at Troll 1 as it flees with his flame tongue longsword.

Attack: 24 Damage: 9 + 8 fire damage.

He cries out as Troll 4's attacks all find their way through his armor.

(I think I follow - basically going from the center of each square you mention.  I suppose I could go along with it, so you get Troll 3 also.  Troll 3 WIS Save: 15)

Troll 3 still attacks Flynt and he then moves away from Flynt to D8-E9.  (Flynt gets an AoO before his turn.)

Quote from rob88scps2 >>

If Troll 3 was frightened, he should have disadvantage on his attacks vs Flynt, if I understand "line of sight" correctly.

 

 Yes, it would be disadvantage. I'll re-roll the attacks when I get a chance.

Troll 3 'disadvantage' attack rolls against Flynt:
(Troll 3 Claw: Attack: Attack: 23)
(Troll 3 Claw: Attack: Attack: 15)
(Troll 3 Bite: Attack: 11)

 All of these rolls are higher, so the original attack rolls stand.
