Crimson Sands of Time

Quote from Wile_E_Coyote >>

 If you got within 5 feet of one if them, they'd have brained you.  All this gets you is a melee Weapon Attack anyhow.

 (Well, I would have had advantage on my saving throw as well, but it's all good)

"Well, let's take whatever might be useful, and then burn everything else."

(ooc: not a fan of this myself but it is a byproduct of PbP and since I couldn't counter the other thing Chadderlay will Counterspell the Cloudkill instead.)

Tetrevess will carefully mage hand the items of value into his pack, after explaining the different items.  “Burn the rest of it perhaps?” He mentally asks the group. 

If you intend to avoid the hands just by running past them and out of the tower, you would succeed.

"I have an idea," says Angus helpfully, "Let's just run past the hands and out of the tower.  I feel no righteous impulse to rid the world of giant floating magic hands."

”Yes- sounds good to me.”Making sure everyone is ready to go, Tetrevess blasts all the flammable things in the room with fire bolts as the group leaves, a disturbing look of sheet joy on his face. 

Akame speaks up for the first time after witnessing all the fireworks. "You guys have a plan for dealing with a hag coven who will definitely strike at us from the Ethereal Plane when we are most vulnerable? Asleep or in a battle with someone else?"

“You are right, of course.  Probably not a wise move.  But I hate these things with a passion.  We’re going to have to be careful for a bit. “. Tetrevess replies.  

"Maybe we should keep a double watch for a while when we rest so as not to be taken unawares by them?"

Chadderlay runs past the floating hands and out of the tower of Conjuration, joining the others outside.

 Cloudkill is above 3rd level, so roll to counter.

As you exit the tower, all seems quiet, but you might notice some ravens flying about the city, none together, only one close to your current location.

Emerging from behind the building to the east come 3 cult fanatics, scouting the city streets.  

They attack on sight. Target initiative is 14.  Post actions at the same time (separate post) as initiative to save time if you roll 14 ot above.

<anybody have anything like [feat]keen mind[/feat] ? If so, speak up or I'll assume it's "no".>

<Also, if anyone wants to give a religion check,  they are members of a secret cult, but a really high result could tell you go they are.>

<this was from the random roll after the long rest>

Religion check 20,  initiative 6

Initiative 20 

Initiative 12 religion 16 

Angus Religion 4   Initiative 16

Angus will advance to melee distance, (BA) activate his shield of faith (AC now 25), and attack the nearest cultist twice with his longsword.

First longsword Attack: 23 Damage: 13 magical slashing + 8 radiant damage

Second longsword Attack: 25 Damage: 8 magical slashing + 7 radiant damage
