Crimson Sands of Time

(Piccolo looks at the hypnotic pattern with interest for a moment, Wis save with advantage: 15, then seems annoyed. She pulls two thorny daggers out and tosses them almost carelessly at the offending arcane Specter (I'm having trouble keeping track of who we have as enemies 3 grunts, 1 specter one commander?) 

To hit: 15 and (33 Nat 20 crit)

Damage: 11 on first attack

Damage from crit: 13+19 magical piercing (if there is another party member within 5 feet of the arcane, Sneak attack with the crit: 19 more damage

That's correct, in this room. I wasn't sure if I was planning to move the grunts so didn't update the map yet. 

I'm doing somwthing weird with the arcane wraith (sorry if i called it specter - these names are pretty interchangable as words go). Wince it has incorporated movement and it can pass through creatures and objects and only has rules for damage if it ends its turn in the space of an object. My lore is that it is possessing bodies it enters and casting spells unfettered. 

For these reasons, the daggers deal damage to both targets.

As noted above, he is right beside Randy to do this possession move (which maybe I could make a BA, but since he has never used a BA, pretty moot), so all conditions above apply

(So grunt and wraith both take damage)

The grunt (who is a standard wraith) falls to the ground, but from his bones emerges the vaporous form coallescing once again into the the arcane wraith, who extends a finger toward the girl who threw the dagger, then traces a line across his neck with a finger of the other hand <nevermind that he's 5ft from Randy who's probably attacking somebody>

The remaing wraiths charge at Ethan. Both attempt a life drain attack

11 for 21 necrotic damage and DC14 Con save or max hp reduced by damage taken

25 for 21 necrotic damage and DC14 Con save or max hp reduced by damage taken

(Is the first attack against piccolo? I guess they miss both of us)

<they were both against Ethan. Pretty sure both miss.>

The gleaming mount the Specter us riding also bites and claws at the giant ape 10 for 18 piercing

24 for 15 slashing

Players are up. (Map coming)

Randy first aims for the sword Wraith commander that grazed him (No shield; Bravely tanks the attack) 

Ballista Sharpshooter: 18 Damage: 21

When that sneaky specter moves behind Randy to try and target Piccolo though, it obviously doesn't avoid his line of sight and causes him to be spooked. "YOU- PIECE OF!" He screams in fright; reflexes getting the better of him as he switches targets and retaliates hard, this time pulling out the longsword that's been strapped to his main weapon. "DON'T SNEAK UP ON ME LIKE THAT! GO BACK TO HELL!"

Longsword (With Booming Blade): Dirty 20, 9 Slashing, 4 Thunder and extra 14 Thunder if it survives the initial hit and moves.

Once he finishes though he turns back... and notices his big brother's mood worsening, almost as if he's about to lose his mind. "Hey! Ethan?! Can you hear me?! Come back!" He yells out, hoping his brother can at least calm down before he turns on everyone next...

The hypnotic pattern fades as the arcane wraith loses his focus in the spell.

Eira, the Chosen of Rillifane Rallathil, snaps out of her daze and quickly casts longstrider on herself and Picollo before dashing toward the remaining wraiths and the door to the room filled wirh noxious gas, jumping into the fray, right beside Randy, in between the arcane wraith and the sword wraith commander.

At the last moment, piccolos instrument lets out a pitch so high, only the mount can hear it

Cutting words (if dm let’s me, hard in play by post)

take 2 off the attack so 18 to hit against ape

 You're in a different room

(Brian is banned again. His pc has low hp)

T, Ethan, Randy, giant ape, you're up.

Randy once again attacks the two that spooked him the previous round with the same attacks on both targets. Come on now... freaking get out of here already...!

Ballista Sharpshooter (Wraith commander): 8 Damage: 17, pushed back 5ft

Longsword (With Booming Blade, the one that spooked him): 12, 8 Thunder, 20 thunder if it moves

Giant Ape's CON (for keeping concentration on the Polymorph spell): 13 

Trisk, as the Giant Ape, makes two fist attacks, if the first kills the large enemy between him and the group of allies and foes in the doorway he move up to there and make the second against one of those enemies.

Attack: 16 Damage: 23 

Attack: 13 Damage: 21 

(From Wiley)

For the Ape

Here is the WIS save: 8 

Here is CON save for concentration from the psychic scream damage: 18 

The WIS save from above was the initial one as I misread your post and didn't realize the Giant Ape was also targeted.

Everything is caught up now and I would be stunned and unable to make my two fist attacks.

This is the WIS save for the end of my current turn: 9  

The Giant Ape has taken 18 and 22 damage so is at 117/157 hp.

RNdy and Erhan take out the wraith captain and the arcane wraith in the vine-filled room where the elf was freed, leaving just two mundane wraiths in this room.

Meanwhile, the room filled wirh noxious gas sees the nightveil Specter, raised from the Chosen of Yurtus, upon his gloamwing mount doing battle with Triskellion, now a giant ape, as rhe Specter of the slain red wizard looks on, Turmoil burning within him.

<did everyone go already? That was quick. Hold on, @Tetrevess: you're up>

Tetrevess, again suffering from befuddlement- uses thunder step- but doing 20 points of radiant damage to the enemies near him, teleporting across the room to a safer spot near the doors.  .
