Lyndaran- 17- The ranger launches two missiles at his grotesque adversary, the first of which is easily swatted away by the creature's tail. The second arrow however seems to do noticeable harm to it, as it lets out a roar of pain. (-29)
Mina- 16- The sea elf follows up with two ranged attacks of her own, the first one lodging in a nearly identical spot on the monstrosity. The arrows, however, immediately turn to ash and disintegrate, apparently causing no damage.
Tali'Zorah- 14- (Since the armor spell was cast after encountering the monster, I must count it as your first round action). Upon hearing you condemn it to hell, the creature mutters, "I wish. Home ssssweet home...."
Kyrsa - 13- Cold rage in her wintry eyes, the warrior charges the fearsome foe, her shortswords flashing in the torchlight. Two of the three strikes seem sure to land, but at the last second swerve inexplicable away from the devil, like two lodestones repelling each other, who then swivels its skull-like visage to stare at her, and mocks, "Pathetic...."
Mr. Personality- 12- Bonehead then unleashes three lightning-swift attacks on the fighter, swiping twice with its claws, and once with its venom-dripping scorpion tail.
1st Claw attack: Attack: 14 Damage: 8slashing
2nd Claw attack: Attack: 19 Damage: 9slashing
Tail attack Attack: 20 Damage: 12piercing + 18poisondamage + DC 14 CON save else poisoned for one minute, may repeat save end of each turn.
Akyan- 9- The soulknife rogue rushes up beside his friend, too late to defend her from the attacks. He instead stabs this abomination with his psychic blades, the first of which seems to draw another cry of pain from his adversary. (-51)
Jhaartael- 9- pending
Mina and Kyrsa:
Some of your attacks would normally have been hits, but in this case did no damage (unless they were somehow magical attacks and I missed it). Sorry about the wasted crit!
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Jhaartael steps out by Mina with his bow ready, however he does not use it at first. Instead he places his free hand at his temple while looking at the creature and whispers "sanarcir".
((Must beat INT 16 save or take 4 psychic damage and subtract 1d4 from the next saving throw it makes before the end of Jhaartaels next turn.))
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Con save: 18
Regardless of the save, Kyrsa is down...
Kyrsa growls at the creature, fury blazing in her eyes as she sees nothing but red. Red from the bodies behind them, red from her anger, and red from the past battles she will never forget. Why had her swords done nothing? She knew those strikes should have landed. What sort of creature is this? In her frustration, she manages to dodge only the first blow, stumbling as she does, which allows the creature to land two devastating hits on her. Her vision starts to swim, and she sinks to one knee in attempt to hold on, "You'll pay...creature of darkness..." She wanted to say more, but the darkness closed in before she could muster the strength.
Tali'Zorah watches the winter-looking elf fall and blinks in surprise. She definitely did not expect the creature's attacks to be so quick and deadly. Feeling a surge of anxiety cluthing her stomach she wonders once again what kind of mess has she gotten herself into to have caused such a creature to come after her while causing so much harm around. But trying to not let it it show, she looks at the creature and says:
- Damn you! Who the heck is your master? What is it they want from me?
She realizes as she asks this that she's probably wasting her breath. Why should the creature even answer? What stops it from killing everyone present except her, if supposedly taking her alive is all it needs? Nothing. So she takes the scene in, and realizing that the attacks that have made the beast groan seem to be the ones coming from the psychic blades and the green-sparkling bow she refrains from drawing her sword and instead tries her luck with magic.
Tali'Zorah then clasps her hands, casts a spell twice, and when she unclasps them there's a ball of shadow in each of them, which directs at the creature. Then takes a couple of steps back towards the window.
Round 2.
Bonus Action: Spend 2 sorcery points to Quicken an Eldritch blast. / Action: Another Eldritch blast. / Movement: to Q4.
Bolt 1. To Hit: 15 / Bolt 2. To Hit: 16 / Bolt 3. To Hit: 10 / Bolt 4. To Hit: 18. Damage: 12. (Man, I hope at least the last one does something ... T_T)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Seeing her arrows disintegrate, but Lyndaran's actually do some damage, she decides to cast hail of thorns and the beast needs to make a DEX save of 13 or take 2 piercing damage on a fail, half as much on a save on top of the arrow itself.
Shooting both arrows and hoping one at least hits...
In stoic silence, Lyndaran and while he approaches Krysa he keeps firing at the fiend. Something was wrong, this doesn't seem part of the simulation. He was really worried, not if they were ready to figth such a creature, but that the stakes had become suddenly higher that any of them had expected.
(( Rolls on the log...
Attack 19 Damage 8 + 5 from HM + 6 from enak attack if applicable. Total 13 or 19 with Sneak Attack.
Movement: 35 feet towards Krysa.
Next round he will move towards her, and cast Cure Wounds ))
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Begin round 2:
Lyndaran- 17- The stoic Gloomstalker's arrow once again flies true, wounding the hellish creature. (-77)
Mina- 16- The Monster Slayer follows that with a magical attack of her own, catching the fiend off-guard. DEX save 16. (I believe only the first attack is affected by the spell?)
Tali'Zorah- 14- The Sorlock excitedly fires off four bolts of eldritch energy, which go flying around the room causing everyone to yelp and duck. Unfortunately, none of them strike her intended target.
Kyrsa - 13- Death Save pending
Mr. Personality aka Bonehead- 12- Realizing that the tide of the battle is turning against him, the bone devil strikes out desperately at the closest target, Akyan.
1st Claw attack: Attack: 27 Damage: 11slashing
2nd Claw attack: Attack: 10 Damage: 11slashing
Scorpion Tail Attack: 22 Damage: 18 + 20poisondamage + DC 14 CON save else poisoned for one minute, may repeat save end of each turn.
(Ah yes, I saw this coming. lol This is why i waited on posting my action.)
(Wow he's barely hanging on with 1hp lol)
Con save: 16
The drow inhales sharply when Kyrsa falls to the ground. Gritting his teeth, he starts to move towards her only to be bombarded by three consecutive attacks from the creature, the two blades in his hands vanishing due to the sudden pain. Staggering, he instinctively retreats 30ft from the creature. (Cunning action to disengage) Even with his blurring vision he notes Lyndaran moving towards the fallen fighter. Head swimming from blood loss or...poison? He digs his fingernails into his palms in an attempt to clear his mind. This seems to help, as his vision clears slightly. Growling, he manages to manifest a new glowing emerald blade, which he launches towards the bloody beast.
Lyndaran- 17- The stoic Gloomstalker's arrow once again flies true, wounding the hellish creature. (-77)

Jhaartael- 9-
( Bonehead would have had minus 1d4 on the first save after Jhaartael's previous mind sliver attack, (applied to the Dex save from Mina's attack?))
Seeing his comrades both abused by this creature as well as rallying against it, Jhaartael calmly weighs his options. Then pressing his temple with the utterance "sanarcir" again he casts the Mind Sliver,
((Must beat INT 16 save or take 5 psychic damage and subtract 1d4 from the next saving throw it makes before the end of Jhaartaels next turn.))
((BTW - I tried to roll in log, but general dice roller does not seem to be working on character sheets anymore!

Jhaartael- 9- The wizard once again seeks to drive a mental spike through the devil's skull. INT Save 6
- What the hell is wrong with me!? - Tali'Zorahmutters in anger, looking at her hands in disbelief after the four black bolts go astray.
When the creature suggests Team 3 to leave, her gaze shifts for a moment from her target to them. Heh, wouldn't that make perfect sense? What is she to them after all? Right now? A mortal trap and nothing else. Well, they can do whatever, she will just keep trying to hit Mr White-Bony-Thing-From-Hell for as long as she can...
... though, just in case they do decide to keep fighting, she might as well try to assist the sun one. He's trying to go for the creature's mind, isn't he?
Round 3
Bonus Action: Hex on Bonehead, straight to his INT.
Action: Another Eldritch Blast. Bolt 1 fails. Bolt 2 To Hit: 21. I messed up I actually clicked the damage button twice instead of the attack /facepalm. Then I did a third damage roll. So I got an 8, a 1 and a 3. Please DM choose the one you see fit. That damage roll will be +3 force (Hexblade's Curse) and +1necrotic (Hex).
Currently feeling like this now that 1 Eldritch blast bolt out of so many has finally hit >.<
