Temple of Ishassara

At this point, Chubby and Nia are up- but seeing as it’s the lot of you vs 1 enemy, I don’t mind so much if you all want to just have a go out of initiative order and it’ll go last. 

 Nia grimly aimed her staff again, she was all out of Scorching Ray spells for now, so instead she prepared an Eldritch Blast to fire at the monster.

Attack: 20 Damage: 6

Another flourish with the staff ends with it pointing straight and true at The Alpha- a blast of energy slams in to it’s Front, arcane sparks of energy dance around it. Nice hit!

Chubby swings at Alpha Grick with his magic battleaxe in a Menacing attack maneuver: Attack: 12 Damage: 11 (magic) plus 5 additional damage due to the expended superiority dice, for a grand total of 16 damage.

The Alpha Grick must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, it is frightened of Chubby until the end of my next turn.

Chubby attempts to make a menacing swing at the creature- his blow glancing off it’s hard, stony skin. (I don’t think it needs to make a throw if it misses?)

Gregor, Crispy and Liam are up.

Thoroughly fed up with fighting these monsters today, Liam pulls out a small diamond from his component pouch (assuming that's something he could already have since he'd been already adventuring a bit before we started this campaign).  With a few spiraling motions of his hands and a quickly uttered incantation, the small diamond erupts in flames which Liam then draws off and hurls at the Alpha Grick.

Chromatic Orb

Ranged Spell Attack: 18

Damage: 15 Fire

Lumber jack swing: 18

Damadge: 16

Don't forget Crispy! Leaping from an advantageous position, she thrusts both blades into the AlphaGrick.

Sneak Attack: 18 Damage: 13
Offhand Attack: 21 Damage: 1

Crispy lets loose a string of very loud swear words, enough to make Chubby and Nia blush.

Her cheeks hot, Nia made a mental note of Crispy's swearwords. This Grick certainly looked like it could use a few.

A number of attacks are sprayed at The Alpha, some glancing off and some finding purchase. It attacks the big half orc in front of it:

Attack: 10 Damage: 9 if that hits, its beak lashes out also; Attack: 8 Damage: 10

Tail lashing about, is directed at Chubby: Attack: 8 Damage: 14

Nia and Chubby

Growling like a angry cornered animal, Crispy made a note of, in the future, practicing harder once they were out of this mess. She was being sloppy. Just plain sloppy. Worse, she said some horrible things that young ladies shouldn't hear in her bout of anger. She didn't care that Chubby heard, he knew her well, but this missing was unacceptable. She gritted her teeth and spoke..

"Trust me, i'm not trying to dance with it..." She growled, frustrated and annoyed. She gripped the sword handles hard as she bounced on her toes, trying to literally break the handles, flexing her arms hard and trying to refocus.

Gregor finds himself being slapped on all sides by tentacles, and nipped at by a sharp looking beak. I’ve seen enough hen-... never mind. Anyways, because of his rage he only takes 9 damadge all togeather. 

Nia bit her bottom lip and took aim again. She fired another Eldritch Blast at the remaining Grick.

Attack: 23 Damage: 7

Eldritch blast strikes true, singing through it’s rocky outer layer.

Chubbs, Crispy, Gregor, Liam.

Crispy releases her tightness and tension, focusing to get the blades to dig deep, to sink deep in. In one motion, her blue eyes flash and she pounces into action, praying her strikes hit true.

Sneak Attack: 17 Damage: 15
Offhand Attack: 14 Damage: 1

 Feeling the strain on his mystical reserves, Liam hopes this creature won't last much longer.  He once again uses the diamond to cast Chromatic Orb, this time opting for Acid damage in hopes of weakening the grick's natural armor.

Ranged Spell Attack: 10

Damage: 13 Acid

Using that Inspiration Point to re-roll that attack: 11

From a fairly advantageous position, the tables quickly turn, as Crispy finds a soft spot and plunges her blades into the back of it, covering herself in a purple icky goo.

With the blades still inside the creature, I strain and use most of my strength to wrench the grick upward so Liam can take another shot at it LOL

"I finally got it!!" She yells, in a combination of satisfaction, frustration, and silliness - spitting purple goo. "Take a shot, take a shot!" 

Chubby: “Don’t mind if I do!” and then swings at Mr. Alpha Grick with his magic battleaxe: Attack: 10 Damage: 8 (magic).

While the monster attacked Gregor with it's tentacles and beak, Gregor found a grip on the slippery appendages and a savage grin stretched its way across his face. With his monstrous rage, Gregor pulls as hard as he can, trying to rip the tentacles from the Gricks Body.

Athletics Check With Rage Advantage: 23

(If what I did isn't allowed, please say and Ill swing with my ax this round instead.
