Still standing in his entranched position, Leelan trusts that Grugga and Zap can take on Vrock 5. However, Vrock 4, shining in all its purple glory, is getting dangerously close from the young noble. 

The gnome shifts his focus from Vrock 5 to Vrock 4, and sends another volley of projectiles, hoping this time, he’ll hit something.

Bonus action: Pass Slayer’s Prey from Vrock 5 to Vrock 4.

Action: Attack (Infused shortbow)

Attack 1: 24 Damage: 4

Attack: 20 Damage: 4

Slayer’s Prey bonus damage on the first attack that hits: 6

Raqisat Oppo Attack vs Vrock 2

Radiant Whip Attack:  Nat 20 for 27 to hit, 8 Damage edit to add: Plus 2 from rage plus 9 from Sneak attack for a total of 19 damage...

BA: Grugga whistles sharply, ordering Zap to attack and hopefully kill Vrock 3.

Attack: 26 Damage: 7 force

Grugga whistles two short chirps, and Zap responds accordingly, moving up 20 feet south to be next to Vrock 5. ((AOO from Vrock 3 if Zap didn't kill it)).

Action: Grugga attacks with his crystal-powered longsword, hoping to cleave this demon-bird out of the material plane. With Zap on the otherside, I think Grugga gets advantage? Otherwise just use the first rolls.

Attack: 19 Damage: 6

Attack 2: 13 Damage: 5

Movement: Once he finishes attacking, he carefully circles around the Vrock to be side-by-side with his automaton.

With increasing worry, the young noble sees a shimmering Vrock head straight towards his position, but he manages to keep his calm and unleashes another two golden beams of eldritch crackling force against the approching Vrock after placing his Hex on it

Target Vrock 4
Eldritch Blast: 13 Force: 5 Necrotic: 4
Eldritch Blast: 12 Force: 12 Necrotic: 2

     On his turn after Aubrey, Raqisat attacks Vrock 3 if it is still alive... If it is not, he will sheath his sword and chuck a dagger at V2 up above...

Radiant Whip vs V3: 12 to hit for 8 slashing plus 2 rage damage.
Bonus Action Scimitar Attack vs V3:  25 to hit for 5 slashing, 2 rage and 1 Sneak Attack damage.

OR

Thrown Dagger vs V2:  Nat 20 for 26 to hit for 9 piercing damage

Grugga and his machine both land blows against Vrock 5, and Raq's attack with his thrown dagger at Vrock 2 is a success as well. 

Unfortunately, although Leelan's arrows find their home in Vrock 4, Aubrey puckers up a little at the sight of the rapidly approaching demon, and his blasts are errant, despite the effects of Faerie Fire.

Vrock 4 then completes its dive toward the mysterious, magic-blasting bush.  It lashes out at the bush with its talons, which Aubrey is able to avoid.

Talons Attack (w/dsadv):  8

Having passed through the bush and realizing it is only an illusion, the Vrock lands and advances on Aubrey, striking with its razor sharp beak.  Dodging away, Aubrey is able to block the strike with his studded leather armor.

Beak Attack:  12

Meanwhile, Vrock 5, now facing both Grugga and Zap, reaches out and attempts to grapple Grugga.

Grugga must make an Athletics or Acrobatics check against 21.  

Then, with or without Grugga, it flies straight up 20'.  Zap, or both Grugga and Zap if the grapple fails, can take AOO.

[So, we still need Cosette for AOO on Vrock 2, a Grapple check from Grugga, and AOO from either Zap, or Zap and Grugga.  Also, Cosette needs to make 2 Concentration checks to keep up her spell.  It looks like she was hit twice this round.]

Round 3!

1. Cosette
2. Vrocks (flock 1)
3. Leelan
4. Grugga
5. Aubrey
6. Raqisat

• Vrock 5: Hurt, 20' above the ground

Athletics: 18

Grugga struggles against the giant bird at first, but then grins sardonically in its corrupted face as he's plucked up off the ground - he has an invention he's been meaning to try out.

Zap AOO: 24 Damage: 10 force

Cosette

Cosette grins through the discomfort in her chest as the foul fowl flaps and snaps in her direction. It was clear that it’s bird breath beak should of pierced just beyond her shield, and it’s filthy talons should have raked her face. However, it is thwarted by an invisible barrier which extends beyond the reach of her shield. ”Keep the change, ya filthy animal.” Unscathed, Cos smirks as her chest still rises and falls in laboured breaths.

(Reation: Shield for no AoO, bringing AC up to 22 for no hit and no con saves)

So Cosette successfully repels the attacks against her with sheer bardic charisma, and Grugga is carried 20' into the air by Vrock 5.

Round 3!

1. Cosette
2. Vrocks (flock 1)
3. Leelan
4. Grugga
5. Aubrey
6. Raqisat
7. Vrocks (flock2)

Continuously congested, Cosette’s caught coughing, cocking her crossbow. Silvered bolt slotted, she spins and she stares, setting her sights on a slippery sucker. Go go glittery goon, gone? She fires.

VS Vrock4 (poison d/a w/ faerie fire adv for straight attack roll)
Attack: 26 Damage: 14 

Once again, Cos clears her throat then attempts to inhale a deep breath through her nose and then exhale through her mouth in hopes to finally clear her lungs of the poison.

Con ST vs DC14: 7 

Cosette's crossbow bolt misses the mark, but on the bright side, she has finally shaken off the poison that was holding her back.

Vrock 2, frustrated by the magical shield that had protected Cosette, turns his eyes across the battlefield, he spies Vrock 5, holding Grugga aloft.

Yes!  Hold it still, so I can gut it!

The demon flaps its filthy wings, and flies across the battlefield.

[Vrock 2 is 20' up, so no attack of opportunity for Cosette or Raqisat.  But... it is 45' away from Grugga, making it just to far to get an attack in this round.  It will dash instead, getting 50' to get position to flank the aerial Grugga.]

"I'm not stuck up here with you, you're stuck up here with me!" Grugga yells as he raises his sword and triggers its embedded crystals with a spark of magic, causing them to flare up in a bright purple light.

BA: branding smite ((this will drop concentration on my turn... Faerie fire should still be active for Leelan if he attacks Vrock 4, but not for Aubrey)).

Attack 1: 17 to hit, 10 magical slashing + 3 radiant from branding smite. Vrock 5.

Attack 2: 10 [hero point reroll to 14] to hit, 7 magical slashing. Vrock 5.

If attack 1 kills Vrock 5, I'd like to try to use attack 2 to grapple Vrock 2 in midair. Athletics: 19

If I end up falling, I'll be using feather fall

Zap auto-dodges

Barely avoiding the ferocious attacks from the bird-demon, Aubrey decides it is time for tactical repositioning, using the powers of his talisman to fold the fabric of reality, reappearing a bit away, quickly turning to unleash another two golden beams of eldritch crackling force against the Vrock.

Bonus action, Misty Step, teleporting 30 feet straight to the west.

Target Vrock 4
Eldritch Blast: 8 Force: 13 Necrotic: 3
Eldritch Blast: 22 Force: 5 Necrotic: 2

Aubrey then retreats another 30 feet to the southwest, taking cover behind a tree if possible.

Leelan sees Grugga get carried of the ground by Vrock 5. Familiar with this unpleasant situation, he focuses back on the demon bird holding his friend and fires 2 more shots at it.

Bonus action: Slayer’s Prey on Vrock 5

Action:

Attack 1: Attack: 17 Damage: 6

Attack 2: Attack: 11 Damage: 5

Bonus damage on the first hit from Slayer’s Prey: 2

     "You alright?" Raqisat asks Cosette as he watches the Vrock overhead fly off towards the others.  It takes but a moment for him to remember the things in their ears and that she probably can't hear him so he puts a hand on her shoulder and looks at her questioningly instead.  Once he's assured she's not about to keel over from the poison or anything he runs off towards the Vrocks, unsure of what to do with them so high and out of reach.  And right now they're a fair bit away from any trees as well so climbing seems out... He does have some daggers left though... Stowing his weapons and drawing daggers instead, Raqisat chucks them at the Vrock that is grappling Grugga...

Dagger Attack: 12 to hit for 7 damage

Bonus Action off hand dagger attack:  16 to hit for 8 damage...

Plus 1 Sneak Attack damage if either of those hit...  (ugh, bad rolls all around)

Vrock 4 screeches in fury after Aubrey disappears from its grasp.  Looking around, it locks its eyes on Raqisat and flies back across the battlefield toward him.  As it draws close, it flares its wings and releases a cloud of vile spores.  Raqisat must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned.  While poisoned in this way, Raqisat takes 5 poison damage at the start of each of its turns.  He can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on himself on a success.  [Zap is also within the field of spores, but a steel defender is immune to poison and the poisoned condition.]

Vrock 5 snarls at Grugga's smiteful blow, but refuses to release him.  It flies another 10' up and 10' east.  Then, grasping him in its talons, it slashes at him with its beak.

Beak Attack:  21   Damage:  13 piercing

Round 4!  Round 5?  ?

Raqisat

     (Raq has adv on save vs poison due to the Protection from Poison cast upon him...  Save:  11 or 20)  Raqisat coughs and sputters and waves a hand in front of his face and in the end it is but a momentary annoyance only.

((Does the Vrock come within 10' of Raqisat for the poison attack?  His whip is equipped so if so he'd get an Opportunity Attack?  If so 21 to hit for 7 damage.  If not, then nevermind...))

[it does come within 10’ but it doesn’t leave.  It is still headed for you, just couldn’t get all the way there this turn.  Unless you have a feature that grants opportunity attacks when targets enter your 10’ reach I don’t think AOO would apply.]

((Nope, all good. I thought it was more a flyby…))

(Apologies for the delay on a really basic attack. Side note, Cosette’s Speak with Plants should still be up in theory as it’s not concentration and is active for 10 mins. They should have been hindering moving out of the space. At this point, could they lash out at the Vrocks and pull them down/closer? Thought I’d ask since it could potentially be in play.)

Unable to hear to assure Raw she’s better now, Cosette carries on cocking her crossbow. She takes aim for the vrock holding Grugga and fires.

Attack: 9 Damage: 8
