Lightning crackles back at the Dread Warrior, sparking off Tarwun's shield and spear.
Wrath of the Storm
When a creature within 5 ft. that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to cause the creature to make a DEX saving throw (DC 12 or it takes 14 lightning or thunder damage (your choice), half damage on success).
Fenly takes the crushing blow on the shield, sliding back a foot or so. "Not this time fiend!", he says as he darts back in, aiming an overhand swing of his pick at the dread warriors chest.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Osmorn congratulates Fenly, "Nicely done! One more rust bucket to go."
With his allies still by his side, he deftly slips past Tarwun and goes past the door but stops before getting near the north wall, putting him in perfect flanking position with Fenly. One of these times he's got to hit to a sweet spot, he's gotta.
Tarwuncharges forward piercing the split visor of the dread warrior and driving him back, pinning him against the wall next to the chest/barrel, before pulling free his spear and giving the others a "Woooo!" of encouragement and excitement. As the thrill of battle fades, he puts more weight on his spear as he tries to catch his breath.
((How solid does the door look to this room? Would a short rest be possible here?))

Tarwun - The Dread Warrior falls onto the chest and rolls off onto the floor where he bleeds out. The door is iron banded wood, AC 15 with 13hp. The shelves in the room are made out of heavy Chultan Ironwood and each would require at least three of you to move.
Fenly moves over to the wall and sinks down to the floor, breathing heavily as his rage subsides. "Everyone in one piece?", he asks as he looks up at the group, wincing at the pain from his bruised ribs.
He looks over at the chest, "You think they were guarding something important or valuable?"
Korba, too, winces in pain, though as the warrior falls the curse that had been placed on him takes affect, healing Korba slightly. He then looks to the others and says, “Time to catch our breath would be nice. And they were certainly guarding something. The other’s we’ve faced in here weren’t as strong. Let’s see what’s in that chest.”

Osmorn shrugs, "Definitely, rest if you need; tend to your wounds. That definitely got out of hand. I will join you very shortly." He luckily did not suffer much but a cut earlier. Perhaps if he used some cloth to clean his wound when he takes a break with the others.
Looking to the chest as the others are however, Osmorn pulls out his thieving tools. Ready if needed, he approaches the chest and makes sure there are no traps around before he opens it.
Osmorn is surprised by the strength of these overbearing warriors and reassures Korba, "Ah dangit. Hang on Korba, we still got this."
Seeing Fenly manage to flank at least this one he tries once more to find a flaw in the menace's armor.
Attack: 16
Damage: 5
SneakDamage: 6
Fenly - Your war pick crumples a section of the Dread Warrior's armor, gouging a hole in the flesh beneath.
Osmorn - The Dread Warrior just manages to intercept the blow with its shield.
Tarwun & Korba are up!
"C'mon guys! We've got these chumps!", Tarwun bellows encouragement to his companions.
Casting bless to target the other three, add 1d4 to attacks and saving throws.
Didn't get it posted in time to help Osmorn's attack, but got there in time for Korba to use it!

Dread Warrior 2 DEX Save: 13
A thick arc of electricity branches between Tarwun and the Dread Warrior's mace, shocking it briefly before it can rip its mace free.

Osmorn - Your rapier finds a gap and you thrust it deeply inside, drawing a pained roar from the Dread Warrior.
Tarwun - The Dread Warrior is focused on the rapier Osmorn thrust into it when your spear skewers it as well. How do you want to do this?
Dread Warrior 2 is DEAD. Combat has ended.

Tarwun charges forward piercing the split visor of the dread warrior and driving him back, pinning him against the wall next to the chest/barrel, before pulling free his spear and giving the others a "Woooo!" of encouragement and excitement.

Perception: 17
Osmorn - You are confident that the chest is not trapped and after a few seconds of picking, the lock releases. Inside the chest you find nothing.
"I could use a breather. Someone want to help me move some shelves in front of the door? We can rest up in here, then move on?"
((Do you need checks to move the shelves? Tarwun is considered large for the purposes of lifting things.))
