Cerau was quiet as she made her way closer and closer to the town. Her eyes flashing up at the dragon whenever it came into view. She was trying desperately not to show how nervous she was as she followed along with the others. She wanted to be valiant like her father had been. Was. Still was. He was still alive - she kept telling herself. She had previously been more talkative in the journey but as they neared the town, a calm quiet had settled over the genasi girl.

However as Cerau sees the family running towards them, the woman staying back to fight the little beasts she squares her shoulders and her eyes brighten with starlight. Cerau watches, emboldened, as vines shoot up around most of wicked creatures and she shouts to the woman, "Go! We'll hold them off. Make sure the children get to safety!" Stepping towards one of the kobolds that is still free (6, 9, or 10), Cerau's left hand reaches to the amulet at her neck and closes her eyes for but a moment. Moonmaiden, I turn to you, guide me. Lifting her arm, she opens her hand out and and points towards the kobold, releasing Toll the Dead as the sound of lightening striking a bell reverberates towards the creature with an unsettling lightness.

OCC: The kobold will need to make a WIS14 save. If it fails: 3 of necrotic damage

Swan looks up at Sabynn's warning and sees the kobolds. Her heart starts racing, and she instinctively reaches for her spear, ready for the fight. Without hesitation, she runs towards the kobolds, shouting to the woman, "Go, mistress. Take care of the children!"

As she gets closer, she can the kobolds are restrained by the vines, and she could see the fear and desperation in their eyes as they struggled against the magical restraints. She knows she has to act fast. With a fierce determination in her eyes, she lunges forward and thrusts her spear towards the kobold.

((Assuming advantage from entangle))

Attack: 7 Damage: 5 

Polearm Attack: 24 Damage: 7 

Wiri watches Swan and Sabynn direct the woman to safety, while Narr dives into the fray. Instinctively, the half-drow takes a step toward the fighting, but stops herself from moving any closer to the melee combat. Her sad eyes flit to the kobolds ensnared in the thick vines, and she realizes that the time has come, yet again, that she must end lives in order to save lives. “May the Divines have mercy on your souls.”

Wiri closes her violet eyes and draws the staff’s orb closer to her face. She traces a shining golden triangle in the air, the shape pulsating with arcane energy. As soon as the triangle is complete, she presses her palm against the shape and an eldritch blast sears through the air, directed at Kobold 10.

Eldritch Blast: 13
Damage: 6

Narr

OOG let's give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you have attacked one of the entangled ones. Your attack roll: 15. I will follow up in the next post.

Cerau

You raise your hand an point towards one of the kobolds (#6 - he is the closest to the family). Small creature meets your gaze when the bell tolls. (Kobold's save 13)

Swan

You take a few steps towards struggling creatures. You thrust with ease killing it instantly. Efficiently and deadly the blade went in just enough to reach it's heart. While pulling your spear out you struck another one in the guts with the blunt end of your spear. He squeals feeling the hit.

Narr

The one you struck (#3) had his head spun towards the back. His eyes went milky right away and the corpse was pulled to the ground by the vines.

Cerau

The one that was looking at you froze. For a split second nothing has happened but you saw black lines appearing on his scales as if the life itself was pulled away from his body. He stands seriously weakned.

Current status for initiative:

1. Tyto
2. Kobolds 1, 3, 4, 5(-4hp), 6 (-4hp), 7, 8, 9 & 10 (Kobold #1 is dead. those marked with underscore are considered entangled and attacks against them have advantage)
3. Wiri & Swan
4. Narr
5. Kobold 2 & 8
6. Cerau
7. Sabynn

The lady turns towards the chasing creatures and stands between the man and the children with her shield and broken spear (Initiative roll 7).

OOG: At this time we are waiting for Wiri's rolls and a turn 1 will begin next. If you make any action, please state which kobold you attack (with his number - all are close enough for you to reach any of them).

OOG I appologise for my mistake - there are 8 kobolds so #9 & #10 do not exist ;) - sorry my bad ;) 

Moreover, Kobold #8 will take turn after Narr.

1. Tyto
2. Kobolds 1, 3, 4, 5(-4hp), 6 (-4hp), 7, (Kobolds #1, 3 & 4 are dead. Those marked with underscore are considered entangled and attacks against them have advantage)
3. The woman with a spear
4. Wiri & Swan
5. Narr
6. Kobold 2 & 8
7. Cerau
8. Sabynn

@WilliamOTheWisps - please choose another target for Wiri while rerolling.

((I'll attack kobold 6 then, what happened to the dice rolls in the previous post?))

Eldritch Blast: 17 Damage: 9

That is a hit. The crackling energy reaches the kobold. His body arches as the force of the spell goes through his eyes and open mouth. With silence he falls without life.

The turn 0 ends. Tyto, your turn.

1. Tyto
2. Kobolds  5(-4hp), 7, (Kobolds #1, 3, 4 & 6 are dead. Those marked with underscore are considered entangled and attacks against them have advantage)
3. The woman with a spear
4. Wiri & Swan
5. Narr
6. Kobold 2 & 8
7. Cerau
8. Sabynn

Tyto casts Shillelagh as a bonus action. You can see flowers blossoming all around his staff, and thorned vines growing between them. He raises his staff, struggling to focus on the vines and roots that are still growing and tightening their grip on the remaining two Kobolds in their control. Tyto runs towards Kobold #7 and attacks him with his staff:

Melee attack: 21; Damage: 12

With a few steps Tyto has reached one of the Kobolds. He spoke a few wards and with studied gestures he smacked this club pressing a shamrock to its surface. The club gave a brief glow as nature's powers itself were imbued within her structure.

The kobold saw you moving closer. he wanted to escape but the vines kept him in place as your club has reached it's body. The force of the blow was so strong, the lifeless body was torn with a brief squeal and landed a few feet in the bushes.

Kobold #5 spends his action trying to break free (Strength check 3 and he needs 14 to break free).

Kobold #5 tries to tore the vines but as he breaks some, the new keep twisting around his limbs and he stays in the same place.

The woman makes a step and with fury in her eyes she thrusts with her broken spear towards the injures kobold (Roll to hit: 21, and to dmg 5)

It was so close... Her thrust was quite powerful and the kobolds eyes went wide with terror of incoming death. However, the tip of the spear missed the kobold's body by an inch.

OOG Now the turn goes to Wiri & Swan and later to Narr. 

1. Tyto
2. Kobolds  5(-4hp), (Those marked with underscore - so currently Kobold #5 & #2 - are considered entangled and attacks against them have advantage)
3. The woman with a spear
4. Wiri & Swan
5. Narr
6. Kobold 2 & 8
7. Cerau
8. Sabynn

As the woman joins the fray, Swan looks up, searching for any sign of the man and the children. Her heart pounds in her chest as she wonders if they have managed to find safety. But her attention is quickly drawn back to the kobolds. With a fierce determination, she raises her spear, the tip of her spear glints in the light. She zeroes in on the kobold caught in the magical veins, intent on finishing the creature off once and for all.

((Aiming at Kobold 5, then 2))

Attack: 21 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll. 

Polearm Bonus Attack: 15 Damage: 4 

The man and the three children are couple of feet behind the woman. The man tries to kee the children close as they try to reach the woman, most likely their mother.

As Swan thrusts her spear, the tip reaches the throat of the kobold and pierces it killing the lizard. Swan spinns around and the back end of the spear punches the other creature.

1. Tyto
2. The woman with a spear
3. Wiri & Swan
4. Narr
5. Kobold 2 (-3 hp) & 8 (Underscore indicates entangled one with advantage to attack)
6. Cerau
7. Sabynn

Wiri eyes the "un-vined" kobold, then looks at the innocents cowering a short distance away. The half-drow has winced at the pathetic squeals of the dying kobolds, but she's still firm in her resolve to protect the people of Greenest. It's the uncontrolled malice in the eyes of Kobold 8 that drives her to raise her staff to the sky. She whispers something in celestial, something beautifully melodic but also despairingly sad. A beam of radiant flame burns through the air, as Wiri casts sacred flame at Kobold 8.

((Kobold 8 needs to make a DC 14 DEX save or he takes 8 damage!))

The kobold surprised looks towards the source of the flame and tries to cover his snout. (Dex save 18) 

The fire burns his snout and he looks left and right as if he wanted to find the cause.

Narr, your turn.

1. Tyto
2. The woman with a spear
3. Wiri & Swan
4. Narr
5. Kobold 2 (-3 hp) & 8 (-1hp) (Underscore indicates entangled one with advantage to attack)
6. Cerau
7. Sabynn

Narr pushed through with the momentum of his first swing and draws the hammer back under his arm.

He had nearly lost hold of the thing he was so worked up. But then he connected with the kobolds head and that helped him to keep a grip.

Feeling a bit more confident Narr grips the warhammer tighter and with a mighty thrust he spears the end of his weapon straight between the eyes of the next kobold.

(attack kobold 2

22

19

Damage 9

The hammer hits the kobold. A powerfull blow crushes its shoulder and brings it to the ground lifeless.

The remaining lizzard, looks at the crushed remains of his companion, drops its knife and as fast as he can runs away (He takes disengage) and starts crawling through the bushes to freedom.

OOG if anyone who didn't tak action this turn wishes, they may do obe ranged attach against him or start a chase.

"It can't be allowed to warn it's brethren of our presence."  The white-haired elven maiden says in a desperate tone, quickly drawing another arrow, taking aim and firing her elven longbow in one graceful fluid motion, aiming for the last kobold.

Elven Longbow: 24 Piercing: 8
