OOC:  It actually can be a tough decision between Silvery Barbs, Shield and maybe Absorb Elements or Counterspell, depending on the fight and the initiative order - mainly because you only get one reaction between turns.  So let's say there are a ton of attacks coming your way.

The thing with Silvery Barbs is that when you use up your reaction for it, it only counts for that one attack, whereas for Shield, it raises your AC by 5 until your next turn.  So let's say you have a bunch of attacks coming your way before your turn and the first one crits you.  What do you do?  You could cast Silvery Barbs to force a re-roll, but then you cannot cast it or Shield for all the other attacks, so maybe then all those other attacks hit you which might have missed with Shield.  And that's assuming a dragon isn't going to breathe on you or the enemy mage isn't going to Fireball you and you need your reaction for Absorb Elements as a reaction.  Or Counterspell for the mage.  It's much easier when there is only one enemy spot on the initiative order because then, as long as you only get hit once, the decision is easy on how to use the reaction.  Regardless, these are all great spells of course.

By the way, I just remembered Aino had cast Comprehend Languages as a ritual before the fight.

Any chance she can understand what Death is chanting as they call forth the gray aura surrounding them?

Sure.  You hear "Time to sleep, Time to die, fall on over and rest your eyes" repeatedly

Casey looks at Kileprat and says “you be needin some healin!”  she  then tries to finish off the bone T-Rex with eldritch blasts.

She BA casts healing word on Kileprat for 7 HP (sorry rolled bad!) and then she shoots  the injured T. rex for 13 to hit for 10 damage, and 14 to hit for 4 damage. no love from the Dice roller this round! 

Will wait to post for Aino just in case Casey's Eldritch Blast damage put down T Rex 1.

Also @Casey - did those to hit rolls include the 1d4s from Storm's Bless?

Both hit. T Rex 1 still alive barely 

Oh no they didn’t, but looks like didn’t matter.  

Aino's Turn:  (her reaction resets - available for later).  "Good old Death is mumbling something about us falling asleep.  Watch out for the gray aura.  Though elves and half-elves can't be put to sleep by magic so we'll see." (She stays within 10' of Storm either way).

Thumbtack flies by to help against T Rex 1.  Aino shakes her head at the wounded undead dinosaur, still standing somehow.  "May you and all your kind be eradicated by a comet falling from the heavens.  After this, I mean."

She attacks T. Rex 1 with her Rapier, +1 and Spirit Shroud and Green Flame Blade with advantage from her owl's help.  Fire arcing to T. Rex 2 only if it is within 5' (which it might be since it just attacked Aino) from Green Flame Blade.

Note that Green Flame Blade does 1d8 fire damage to the primary target and also 1d8+5 fire damage arcing to an adjacent enemy.

Attack 1:  targeting T. Rex 1 (advantage from help from Thumbtack, 3 d20s due to Elven Accuracy)
To Hit:  23 + 1 from Bless = 24
Rapier, +1:  10 magical piercing damage
Spirit Shroud:  7 radiant damage
Green Flame Blade to primary target: 6 fire damage
Green Flame Blade to adjacent enemy (T. Rex 2):  1d8+5 = 8 fire damage
Total damage to T. Rex 1:  23 (magical piercing, radiant and fire).
Total damage to T. Rex 2 if it is within 5':  8 (fire arcs to it, no saving throw allowed).
Potential total from first attack:  31 (or just 23 if T. Rex 2 is not within 5').

Attack 2:  targeting T. Rex 2 (or T. Rex 1 if it is still alive) (straight roll)
To Hit:  22 + 2 from Bless = 24
Rapier, +1:  10 magical piercing damage
Spirit Shroud:  7 radiant damage
Total from second attack (targeting T. Rex 2, unless T. Rex 1 is still alive in which case targeting T. Rex 1):  17 (magical piercing and radiant).

Overall total from both attacks: either 48 total damage between the two T. Rexes, or 40 total if no fire arcing from Green Flame Blade.

Spirit Shroud secondary effects:
1.  Any enemy hit by Aino's attacks while concentrating on Spirit Shroud cannot regain hit points
2.  Enemies within 10' of her have their speed reduced by 10'

You kill The Bone Rex (T Rex 1) and hit T Rex 2. 

Death is up. Death will point at Storm. "Come to meeeee"

Death cast command approach. 

Make a Wisdom save. DC15 on a fail you walk to death

Kileprats turn.

When Casey touches Kileprat, she feels some renewed energy.  "Thank you my friend, maybe I did need that."  (Added the hp in game log)

She watches the first dino burn up and turns her attention to the second one.  "Come here doggy, I got a bone for ya."

To hit1: 29 Damage: 15

To hit2: 29 Damage: 17

Frenzy hit: 18 Damage:17 

Hit you get 3 real solid hits on the T Rex. It let's out a monsters roar.

Storm is up

Wisdom Save: NAT 20! For 29 total

Storm will look to Death "You hold no sway over me undead filth!" He then rushes over to help Kileprat with the other Zrex.

Attack 1 w/ Smite: 28 Damage: 8 + 14 Radiant

Attack 2: 13 Damage: 7

With a NAT 20 Death will have no sawy over you this fight. (You can't be affected by any of his auras)

Both attacks hit. This Zrex seems weaker then the first it's already looking more worst for wear.

TOP of the order. Casey and Aino

casey BA shifts her spiritual weapon to the Trex, and then attacks with eldritch blasts:

EB;  18, 17 to hit (plus bless but not needed:

sw 13 plus 3to hit 

6 EB damage plus 11 spiritual weapon damage 

total 17 damage.  (Casey’s feeling a little overmatched by the crew!) 

“Give it up, Death! We’re not ready fer ye yet!” Casey Casey calls out.  The pain from her injuries focusing her fear, She starts singing a song, low at first, and gradually building, trying to get the crowd revved as she goes..

“at first I was scared, I was petrified.  
Kept thinkin I could never live with these undead  by me side.
But I spent so many fights thinking how the livin dead are wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
Now the dead are back
From another place
In this arena here with that rotting  look on their face
I should have brought some holy water, I should have talked to a priest
If I'd known for just one second they’d be back to bother me

To the Bard the unsung hero who sings  Roll performance

She uses her inspiration for an 18.

 (Heh just heard that song the other day and thought of our game)

Quote from Tesservett >>

 (Heh just heard that song the other day and thought of our game)

 She only did one that mattered, but it was a good one.

(Not that I'm complaining but did we skip T. Rex 2's latest turn?  I feel like Aino is going again without T. Rex 2 having gone in the between...)

Aino rocks out like a fangirl to Casey's performance, her bladesong harmonizing on the "we will survive" part of the chorus.

Aino's Turn:  Reaction resets.  Thumbtack flies by to help against T Rex 2.  Aino stays within 10' of Storm.

She attacks T. Rex 2 with her Rapier, +1 and Spirit Shroud and Booming Blade with advantage from her owl's help.  Booming Blade does 1d8 thunder damage immediately and also 2d8 thunder damage if the target moves before Aino's next turn.

Attack 1:  targeting T. Rex 2 (advantage from help from Thumbtack, 3 d20s due to Elven Accuracy)
To Hit:  27 + 4 from Bless = 31
Rapier, +1:  12 magical piercing damage
Spirit Shroud:  8 radiant damage
Booming Blade immediate effect: 2 thunder damage
Booming Blade additional secondary damage if T. Rex 2 moves voluntarily:  8 thunder damage
Total damage to T. Rex 1 from first attack:  22 (magical piercing, radiant and thunder) or 30 if T. Rex 2 moves voluntarily.

Attack 2:  targeting T. Rex 2 (straight roll)
To Hit:  25 + 3 from Bless = 28
Rapier, +1:  14 magical piercing damage
Spirit Shroud:  7 radiant damage
Total damage to T. Rex 2 from second attack:  21 (magical piercing and radiant).

Overall total from both attacks: either 43 total damage to T. Rex 2, or 51 total if T. Rex 2 moves voluntarily.

Spirit Shroud secondary effects:
1.  Any enemy hit by Aino's attacks while concentrating on Spirit Shroud cannot regain hit points
2.  Enemies within 10' of her have their speed reduced by 10'

I guess I forgot to post it. Thanks

Casey with an 18 you do real good despite the situation. You hear death humming along a little

Bite attack is a Nat 20.... that's bad. 

Tail attack miss.

The T Rex bites Storm for 103 damage (double max) storm is grappled if he is still down by the T Rex next turn he will be swallowed = death.

Aino you reck this t Rex. It's just barley being held together.
