This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
a huge part of the stage comes crashing onto the bard, and she’a crushed underneath it for a moment, but pushes it aside.
Casey fails the constitution save in spite of the advantage and 3 bless (best I could get is a 10 even with a 4). So she loses the enhance ability on Storm.
Her face is bloody and her breath is ragged- she must have several broken ribs. “I guess I gots to ye big man.. ok no more miss nice Casey…” She BA casts Hex on Honda giving him disadvantage on STR checks, and then shoots another bolt of force at him…. But her arm is in so much pain she can’t aim properly and the shot is poor. 8 plus 1 bless.
Badly hurt, she moves further back from the huge Honda.
I almost hate to say it but Kileprat's reaction resets on her turn. You only get one reaction between turns. So sadly, you can't get both an opportunity attack on Honda moving away AND a Sentinel reaction attack on Honda's turn. You only get one of those two. And then of course your regular attack.
Thumbtack flies by and flaps her wings in the bleeding Honda's face once more, granting help and advantage.
Aino thrusts through Honda's hamstring with her Rapier, +1 with Booming Blade. To hit at advantage, 3 d20s thanks to Elven Accuracy: 28 (NAT. 20). Damage (double regular damage): 2 x 12 = 24 magical piercing damage. Booming Blade extra thunder damage if Honda moves until Aino's next turn: 8 (max).
"Tough spot, big man, caught between Garmuk and us..."
Attack of Opportunity: As Honda moves away from him, Storm swings out with Shatterspike "Running away now?"
Shatterspike Attack w Adv from Vow: Nat 20 to hit for 28 total, Damage: I believe you said its max for crits? so it would be 22, if its not max, my total is 14
Regular Turn: As Storm's allies unleash a barrage of attacks, Storm moves back into position to slash at Honda and add his own attack to the onslaught.
Shatterspike Attack w Adv from Vow: 23 to hit, Damage: 11
DM: Unfortunately Tybard is right cause that was a sick anout of damage. So we don't meta game I'm using your first reaction. It won't matter fights over.
You all swarm Honda as he runs away. Then coordinate a final attack on Honda.
Casey sets Honda up, Aino rushes in and stabs his hamstring bringing Honda down to 1 knee. Kileprat runs in with last quip and under cuts honda's arm right in the ribs. The big man trys to gasp in pain but only a whimper comes out. Storm ceasing on the momentum of this final assault moves in and strikes. Your pike presses home then poof Honda is gone.
The crowd roars as Dan the Man comes over the air.
They did it folks the half Giant is defeated. The team with no name has shot them self to the top of this competition. We might being seeing a time go the distance.
A portal appears behind yall taking you back to the ready room.
Congratulations. That was some fight to watch. My money is on you tomorrow against GC. Please gather your things and I'll take you to your apartments you look like you need a rest.

I think your wrong on this one, I got an opportunity attac when he moved. Then a reaction attack on his attack. Then my own attack. I only took one opportunity attack. Doing research, it seems to be commonly accepted that a sentinel reaction is NOT an attack of opportunity. But ecause dnd is very much interpretive, i see where your coming from. And as always, I do submit to whatever the DM says it is.

The limitation is on REACTIONs. Only one Reaction per PC or creature between turns. Honda moved and attacked, both on his turn.
So even though the Sentinel reaction is not an opportunity attack, it IS a reaction. That is why Kileprat can't take both her opportunity attack (due to Honda moving) and her Sentinel reaction attack (due to him moving back and attacking someone else) in this situation. That would be 2 REACTIONs.
So you're right that the Sentinel reaction attack is not an opportunity attack. I even pointed that out already in post 468 since you had taken a Sentinel reaction attack before and said Honda's speed went to 0 (in your prior post 465) and I said no, Honda's speed doesn't go to 0 because it's not an opportunity attack. But it IS a reaction attack. And the Opportunity Attack is a reaction. So that's 2 reactions. Hope that makes sense.
Edited to add: here is the relevant rule. Notice that it says nothing about opportunity attacks specifically. It covers ALL reactions: https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/basic-rules/combat#Reactions Specifically: "When you take a reaction, you can't take another one until the start of your next turn."
DM: its the reaction count but enough on that thibk the matter is settled.
Sorath looks at Aino. No worries Honda is not dead though he might be once Garmuk is done with him for that stunt he pulled. Plus I bet a pretty sum of gold on yall. I'll be able to retire if yall keep winning. As for who GC is can't tell you yet.
Sorath leads you back to your apartment on the regular route you have done the last few days. Half way there you notice the usual activity on the street is missing. And there are 4 figures blocking the street ahead.
Sorath stops. This don't look good let's turn around and head back to the arena. As you turn 4 more figures step from the shadows to block your exit.
A figure steps forward into the light.
No worries loves we just want a chat.
Sorath replays. You know this is against the rules. I'll kill you all for this.
The thug leader tosses a bag at Sorath, who bends over to pick it up. He opens it to the glint of platinum.
Thug: take the night off Sorath. The boss wants you to get a drink on him.
Sorath: He is not my boss, but I am thirsty.
He turns to the party. Yall can make it from here I'm sure and frankly when I bet this on yall tomorrow I'll be rich. Please don't die before then.
OOC: Storm would have used 10 lay on hands on himself and the other 10 on Casey once the battle was over by the way, already applied to Storm, Casey if you accept the healing it is for 10.
Storm heals his own wounds upon the battle finishing then turns to see Casey the most injured of the rest. "Here, let me help with those."
Aino breathes a secret sigh of relief as the distraction from Silvery Barbs is enough to allow her to dodge the swipe of the big man's huge paw.
"Hey! At least buy me dinner first!" She grins at Honda as she pulls back a stray lock of dirty blond hair from her brown eyes.
(@Casey, to reiterate, you have advantage and +1d4 on your DC 11 CON Save for concentration on Enhance Ability thanks to Silvery Barbs and Bless.)

The sting makes Honda look weaker and a bit deflated. The poor half giants body is not covered in blood as he is weakened and beat down.
He us looking very injured but still in the fight.
Kileprat, and storm still up this round and storm still had an AOO if you want to use it
Kileprat AOO:
As Honda tries to move away, Kileprat is able to swing her sword, hitting Honda in the back.
"Oof"
Swngs Last Quip. To hit: 27 Damage 13
When Honda attacks Aino, she will get an attack for sentinel: To hit : 25 Damage 17
Then Honda attacks Aino and leaves himself open for Her to smack him in the back of the head.
"Bam"
On her attack, she will rotate in a spinning motion to hit one more time in his ribs.
To hit: 22 Damage : 16
"Pow"
Love it @Nontyper!

in the moment before the portal opens, Casey casts healing word on herself for 10 hp, and gives a bow with a flourish for the crowds.
“nice work crew! Was amazin watchin ye! Wonder what they’re gonna throw at us next?” Casey says
she starts composing the next lines of a ballad of the group’s accomplishments- while still working on coming up with a name.
(level up? And what’s the prize? :) )
(that was a blast!)

Aino wipes her blade off and grins at Sorath.
"Who is this GC we are fighting tomorrow? And sorry about taking Honda out - you said he owed you money..."
She smiles at Casey as the bard works on the team name and the song. "What rhymes with Honda anyway?"

Kileprat looks at Aino."Wanda, Wanda rhymes with Honda., or maybe I'm kinda fond of. Eh.. thats why I'm not a bard."
Aino grins. "Or maybe anaconda. Yeah, I'm no bard either..."

Sorath then vanishes.
What do you all do?
Did we get a short rest before heading back?
If so, those that are wounded could have healed with hit dice, Aino could have used her Arcane Recovery etc.
(I'm good either way, just asking as it might change what Aino does at least).

Sure, you where given a few mins to gather your things. you can do a short rest. You should still be level 4 for this encounter.
