Forgotten Realms Tales

Logan:

Logan slashes at the prone Kruthik, slamming out with his shield to try and knock prone any other adjacent still-standing foe., 

Longsword Attack:  Attack: 22 Damage: 12

Shield Shove to Prone:  20

Logan inflicts a wound on the fallen Kruthik and makes sure it stays on the ground with another hard hit of his shield. Now that he notices it, this ones seems to be a little bit bulky and taller than the first they encounter, and the horns in their heads seems to be a little bit more elaborated. But they fight  recklessly nonetheless. 

To his right, Thandril keeps dancing and his flamig sword is taking good care of the Praetonian Kruthik, but the stubborn beast do not fall, trying to inflict some wounds on the elf, but to no avail. The little ones are no more effective against Gorm and Logan, trying to emulate their bigger counterparts in the fight, but they seems to be more an annoyance than a real threat. One tries to climb Gorm's leg but the desert warrior kicks him down to the ground before it could do any real harm. It wasn't a pleasant experience though. 

The praetorian that Logan is keepin in the floor, enraged, tries to puncture his feet and cut the warrior legs, but he sees it coming and has no problem dodging it. 

Then, the Queen schreeches again and fire two more heavy spines against them. This time, Thandril cannot dodge it and it pierce his left shoulder. With a scream of pain, the elf manages to pull it off and, clenching his teeth keeps on fighting. The other one flies towards Logan. He puts his trusted shield between him and the deadly spike in the last second. The impact makes him goe back a couple of feet, feeling the heavy impact on his arm. The spike is stick in the shield, with the pointy end of it appearing from a hole in the shield. 

Gorm knew they needed to dispatch the last defenders of the queen as soon as possible. 

( Gorm's turn. The Kruthik are no having luck this fight, no one manages to damage you, except the queen to Thandril. Missed Logan just for 1... ;) ) 

     “Ewww” is Gorms insightful and concise treatise on the sensation of having one of these things crawl upon her.  Baby or not, she was not having it.  Slashing out with her blades once more she’s looking to kill anything and everything not party of their group!

Scimitar Attack: 19 to hit for 11 damage

BA Off Hand Scimitar Attack:   Nat 1…

After killing the little one, sending its two halves flying away with a precise cut of one of her scimitars, she tries to cut, the bigger one on her right but she moves before really looking and she is surpirsed by the sound of metal against metal. 

"Watch out Gorm!" says Thandril, blocking her blade with his one sword " I am on your side remember?" he winks at her while keeping fighting. 

(bump)

(Sorry for some reason thought it was Dr. A's turn ) 

The ethereal whip lashes out again and grabs one of the smaller kruthik by the neck, sending it flying over the chamber. The drow mutters some words and a column of purple fire hits the one that is fighting Logan, making it schreech. 

Dr A. knows that their time is growing short to end the ones they are fighting before the queen reaches them. 

( Now it's Dr. A's turn and the map has been updated ) 

Restricted to cantrips, Dr A focus on the queen and enters a battle of will with it as he casts Mind sliver on her (DC 14 -Int or take 6 psychic damage and 1 of her next saving throw) 

The huge creature shakes her head for a moment and growls when Dr A”s magic affects her. 

Logan, with only one enemy at his reach must seize the opportunity to finish the creature 

Logan:

Striking at the Kruthik before him, Logan swings with all his might to try and take the creature down.  If he is successful, he moves to intercept the queen so he can protect the others from her--at least a little bit.

Longsword:  Attack: 23 Damage: 7

Logan's blade found a weak spot in the krutik exoesqueleton but the creature refuses to die, piercing back to the warrior but his shield and armor protects him for the creature's claws. 

Thandril manages to finish the one he was battling and moves to help Gorm and Logan. Unfortunatley he doesn't see one if the spikes of the Queen coming his way and it pierces one of his legs. The elf screams in pain but, somehow, as a part of one of his spins, he takes the spike off and keeps moving. Dr. A. this time is aware of the threat thoe psike pose to them and he hides his head inside his shell just in time to avoid another one.

The remaining little one has no luck trying to beat Gorm's defenses and the desert nomad is ready to finish it before they had to deal with the enraged Queen. 

     Seeing Thandril take such a hit and the difficulty they all are having with the lesser creatures, Gorm grimaces at seeing the queen advance.  Still, nothing to be done but hack through it all…  Attacking first the little one then moving on to bigger game, Gormmlets his swords flash and slash.. (attacking recklessly for advantage, attacks against her also have it…)

Scimitar attack: 20 to hit for 12 damage

Bonus Action Scimitar Attack: 23 to hit for 4 damage

The scimitar cuts the little one by half and the other eapon also finds it mark, but it seem that the creature is more resilient than the others they had found. The etheral whip slashes the air again and blids the creature, which in their rage and pain walks directly into Logan's sword. The fighter pulls away the corpse of the last of the praetonians kruthiks and face the horror of the queen herself. But a purple beam of light crosses the air above him and hits the beast. The queen does not recoil but it is surrounded by that purple light, making her more clear to the eye, specially to Logan's sight. 

Dr A. feels that, despite their numeric superiority, their chances had increased only slighty. The fire roars behind the Queen, killing the rest of her eggs and descendency, their tiny schreeches making mad to their injured mother.

Logan:

Striding forward and interposing himself between the huge creature and his companions, Logan stabs the glowing creature with his longsword and smacks it with his shield, roaring a defiant challenge at the unnatural aberration to try and focus its attention on him and away from his friends.  He then drops into a defensive stance assuming he is successful in taunting the creature.

Longsword Attack with Guiding Bolt Advantage:  Attack: 26 Damage: 9

Bonus action Shove with Shield:  No combat effect due to size difference, but it could annoy the thing...

Action Surge: Dodge to give the creature disadvantage on attacking him.

Dr A continues his battle of wills with the Queen casting another Mind sliver at her. - DC14{Int} save or take 2 psychic damage and 2 off her next saving throw (OOC not sure if the -1 on her Saving throw from last round has been used up?)

Logan's sword cur deep into one of the Queen's legs, making the beast to screech and roar. Dr. A. mental assault seems to start taking it's toll as the beast shakes its head and whines a little. 
The elf moves in, and burns the Queen's flesh as his sword cuts it. 
The Queen recoil a little bit... staggered. It seems that the combined forces of the party are starting to take its toll. 
She produces a regurgitating sound, and she lunches herself forward, opening her mouth and sporuting a greenish substance that exudes an incredible hodor. The liquid falls all over Thandril, Logan and reaches as far as Gorm. It burns, carving throught cloth, metal and skin alike. 

The elf is caught entirely by surprise and its fully covered in that acidic substance. He also slips on it and falls in a pool of the regurgitation of the Queen, screaming in pain.

( I need for Logan and Gorm to make a DEX ST dc 14 or suffer. 25 acid damage. Half of it on a success. Thandril got a nat 1 on his save. And she has a -3 on her next ST ) 

(Gorm's turn sorry forgot to include it and I do not want to mess the damage roll ) 

Logan:

Dexterity Save while dodging:  17

Logan:

Already in his defensive stance, Logan is ready to dodge the huge creature’s attack!  As the acidic flow comes his way, he manages to twist mostly out of the path of the flow, then use his shield to deflect the rest of the acid away from his flesh.

(Shield Master Evasion for no damage)

Gorm Save:  15 so 10 Damage taken.

     Stepping gracefully towards the Queen, Gorm dances around the bulk of the royal green goo regurgitation and is caught by just some splashing.  Gorm tried to dance around the Queen to try to flank with Logan even as she attacks recklessly (Gorm gains adv on attacks, attacks against her this turn gave it too…)

Scimitar attack: 24 for 8 damage

Bonus Action scimitar attack: Nat 20 for 27 to hit for 13 damage…
