Vrocks are dull-witted, capricious fiends that live only to create pain and carnage. A vrock resembles a giant hybrid of humanoid and vulture, its gnarled, bestial body and broad wings stinking of offal.
Vrocks gobble humanoid flesh whenever they can, stunning potential prey with an ear-splitting shriek, then swooping down to attack with beak and claw. Vrocks can shake their wings, releasing clouds of toxic spores.
Coveting pretty things, vrocks turn against each other for the chance to lay claim to cheap jewelry or ornamental stones. Despite their love of treasure, vrocks are difficult to bribe, seeing no reason to bargain when they can simply take what they want from a would-be bargainer’s corpse.
[OOC: Well that hits ! Girs now has only 5hp left]
Gris grunts in pain "I am sorry animal but i will have to defend my self". Gris stands wide on his legs and makes classic double hand push attack with his spear. As soon as spear reaches the target he pulls back
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Adoy will move 25ft away from the vultures. He then uses a bonus action to cast Magic Stone on three of the pebbles he carries for his sling, and launces one at the large vulture.
Vrock lets out a grunt as the pebble hits him square in the forehead, falling in a crumpled heap. He croaks out his last words, almost sadly.
"Meat. Bad meat."
Vrock is no more. The last vulture seems to come out of a trance, and with one last fearful look at his fallen comrades, he is gone in a flurry of feathers.
You have each earned yourself 40 XP (I always round to the nearest 5). Well done. Kudos to Adoy and Kathleen for the killing of Vrock, and to Gris for slaying the lesser vulture. Ayoola, Ennis and Ghorbash will have their chance to land a blow next battle.
With his battle lust unsatisfied, he walks over to the Vrock and looks closer. "Talking bird. Unnatural beast," he says and then spits at it. He then walks over to Adoy and pats him on the back. With a heavy tone, he compliments Adoy, "Well done. You surprise me."
Sorry about the mess.

No worries. And thanks for the info with the nature check. Giant Vulture is SO much better than what I was expecting when you said Vrock.
(Now I'm curious. What were you expecting? From the description, I thought it was a dragon at first.)

(They are a type of demon in the monster manual.)
It was my little joke. ;)

Sorry for the lag.

Why do we use spoilers ?
At yet another grunt from the fearsome Vrock, the two lesser vultures lunge at the nearest targets, e.g, Adoy and Gris.
The first stabs at Adoy. Attack: 10 Damage: 4
The second, a little slower on the uptake (it seems a little full of auroch just now), takes a swipe at Gris with a bloody beak. Attack: 22 Damage: 4
(Adoy and Gris, you are tied with an Initiative of 12. You can decide who acts first.)

Keeps the actual playing space clean and free from distraction.

Attack : 24 DMG: (two hand) 8 + (haha Cricital For Critical :D ) 3
[OOC Bonus Action: Hidden Step + move to side so other can attack ]
Gris disappears and moves 20 away from the enemy
The vulture goes down in a flurry of feathers and a squawk of pain. It does not get up again.

Well that was quick...
As the large vulture dies. Kathleen strides over to Gris. "How are you doing? I hope that thing didn't hurt you too bad."
I know! I was expecting a longer battle. But those were some nice rolls.
Below is one of the better images I could find of your location. Just picture an auroch instead of a lion. :D

Ghorbash
With his battle lust unsatisfied, he walks over to the Vrock and looks closer. "Talking bird. Unnatural beast," he says and then spits at it. He then walks over to Adoy and pats him on the back. With a heavy tone, he compliments Adoy, "Well done. You surprise me."
Gris appears back. You can see that he sings of volture attack.
Gris is sad
"Ehh. Maybe if we gave him meat we could save that poor vulture. There is nothing evil in being hungry"
Gris gasps and shrugs "well..there is no reason to waste food. Who knows how to cook vulture?"
