Daveth will offer, "I don't think anyone could sleep through this door opening. Once we open it, all element of surprise is out the window."

"Yeah, I guess we´ll just have to blast them with everything we got once it opens." Ruby says. "But I think that securing the other exit is a good idea Wake. Who knows how many are there."

“Alright, so how about I cast Bless as the lever is pulled. I walk in 20’ Dodgeing and hopefully drawing all of their fire. You all follow and end them. Are you all ready?”

Ariana tightens her grip on her quarterstaff and nods.

“Depending on what it looks like on the other side, I may dash to the other door instead of dodge. I don’t want them to have time to fashion another bar for the other door to block us in. I will focus on keeping that door open.”

Wake steels himself for what is about to go down.

Wake will nod to everyone and then cast Bless to benefit Ariana, Ruby and Daveth as soon as someone pulls the lever.

At this point Elwyn wakes up yawning. "What's with talking, you all look like you're going into a fight....oh, we are." He finishes and grabs his tentacle-shaped wand. "I'm ready."

All - Daveth pulls the lever and the stone door rumbles down into the foundation of the cellar. It isn't halfway down when shouts and curses begin erupting in the room beyond. Three rough looking men are scrambling out of their bedrolls as Wake steps into the breach.

Let's roll for initiative! Because of how long it takes for the hidden door to open, neither the party nor the enemies are surprised when combat begins.

Ned initiative: 5 

Bandit 1 initiative: 6 

Bandit 2 initiative: 20 

Daveth initiative: 10

Ruby initiative: 14

"Tadaa!" Elwyn exclaims to the somewhat surprised bandits as the secret door slowly opens to reveal a band of avengers.
Elwyn initiative: 9

Wake’s Initiative with advantage due to Vigilant Blessing: 21

Ariana initiative 18 

Ariana is distracted by Elwyn's jokes, unable to quell her giggle but costing her some initiative.

(OOC: I am rolling poorly today!)

Kulogall is waiting as the door rolls open.  "Ned, you piece of excrement!"  He readies his staff and his hands clench in a fist.  

Kulonitiative :  8 

Elwyn is up first!

Ruby is after Elwyn.

I'll post an initiative list later.

"Yes, as the triton said Ned. It's time for payback, as in you returning that cloak and dagger I gave you." Elwyn says angrily as he finally gets out of the comfy bed and spots the traitorous old man. He then swiftly curses Ned and sends a blue beam of crackling eldritch force towards him.

Movement: A6 -> B6
Bonus action: Hex dex
Action: Eldritch blast: 19 Force: 12 Necrotic: 3

Elwyn - In your haste to chastise the cur your blast misses altogether. It instead crashes into the stone wall beside him. He will sneer at you and say, "Oh, you can have it back!" as he brandishes the loaned dagger in one hand.

Ruby is up!

Ruby will let Elwyn get his revenge and instead go and attack whoever Is around the corner.

Movement:C4 to E2

Action: attack bandit 2

Dagger: 19 + bless from Wake 4 piercing damage: 6

Initiative order is as follows:

Elwyn

Ruby

Bandit 2

Ned

Wake

Kulogall

Ariana

Daveth

Bandit 1

Ruby - Bandit 1 will take an attack of opportunity and swipe at you with his scimitar as you rush past. The man whips the blade at you in one smooth motion as he draws it from its scabbard, carving a deep slash across your upper arm and across your hip.

Attack: 22 Damage: 7

Both of your attacks on Bandit 2 connect as he fumbles for his weapon. He cries out in pain as you gash and gouge him with your daggers.

Bandit 2 will attempt to swipe back at you with his scimitar. He also manages to hit you, adding another red slash across your body.

Attack: 18 Damage: 4

Ned will throw Elwyn's dagger at Ruby. The blade buries itself to the hilt in her back and she drops onto the dirty bedroll beneath her. The Bandit next to her will spit on her with a muttered "B*tch!" as he holds his side. Ned will then make a run for the door.

Movement: B1 to F1

Attack: 18 Damage: 6

Sneak Attack Damage: 7

Ruby is DYING.

Wake is up!

“NO!” Shouts Wake.
