Tytus was ready to act fast once the action starts, and now he sees how flinn bravely took attention of both other mouthers. But it seems like he stands there to long and might get himself into the trouble. Trying to help Tytus gets on his one knee putting hands on the ground and starts moving his body up while his hands are dancing their way up as well up to above his head. while doing those motions he recites in unknown language: "jezdem panockiem piekelnickiego cieplobucha no to zem ja przychadzam wam ogonieja". After that there is burst of bonfire from the ground right in front of the Flinn.
Tytus hopes that this flash of fire will help Flinn wake up and act fast enough, and that the fire will be an obstacle for the mouthers that are coming after Flinn.
Action: Cantrip: Create Bonfire
You create a bonfire on ground that you can see within range. Until the spell ends, the magic bonfire fills a 5-foot cube. Any creature in the bonfire’s space when you cast the spell must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 1d8 fire damage. A creature must also make the saving throw when it moves into the bonfire’s space for the first time on a turn or ends its turn there.
After Rhaenys is told to advance with the rest and Hewelathan and Flinn carry the cylinder the rest of the way, she listens to what the group proposes.
- Okay. So Korba will weaken that mouther over there - she whispers, pointing to the creature in the middle of the three, the one that Hewelathan indicated - then I'll pull him it into the cylinder. Meanwhile the rest deal with the other two. Aaand none of us touch that black hole in the slightest. Fine by me. I'm ready.
When everyone seems to be ready too, Rhaenys will plug the cotton in hear ears (just in case she's not covered by Truthseeker's protection aura) and gets ready to cast. She'll do it as soon as Korba gives the sign.
Rhaenys' Telekinesis roll: Rolled a d20 and got an 11 and my spell modifier is 4+ (I'm guessing we have to use that value instead of the spell attack right? Cause my spell attack is +10). So I think I got a 15.
Rhaenys's location:
Rhaenys, her hand extended towards the chosen gibbering mouth, begins to pull with her mind, hoping to move the creature 30 feet towards the cylinder...
Okay, so the rundown of where things are right now:
When you confronted the mouthers, you entered initiative. I'll say that Rhaenys uses her first turn dragging the chosen monster 30' towards the specimen cylinder. Korba managed to get his spell off before the fight started since that was the plan, so it sounds like he is using his first turn in initiative to take the dodge action. Meanwhile, Tytus created a bonfire between the other two mouthers and Flinn. And that just leaves Hewelathan before the mouthers take their turn, followed by Jodie and Flinn.

Unhappy that the market got rid of individual purchases for one-off subclasses, magic items, and monsters?
And that just leaves Hewelathan before the mouthers take their turn, followed by Jodie and Flinn.
(OOC: Oops. Sorry. I thought that my previous posts probably took up Hewelathan's turn this round. That is... 1. Giving Korba's a buff on his skill / perception check if he needs to make another check before Hewelathan needs concentration for something else.)
Hewelathan touches Korba and prays that the rock and stone embraces the half-drow and benefits him. (Cast guidance on Korba.)
(OOC: 2. Getting into position so that he's out of reach of the gibbering mouther when it goes into the cylinder but close enough to put the lid on the specimen cylinder once Rhaenys drops the gibbering mouther into it.)
Hewelathan will stand near the cylinder (about 10' back) for now with the lid of the cylinder in hand as a kind of shield. If Flinn can fight off the monster's attacks and/or stabilize the cylinder [as Rhaenys drops the creature into it], Hewelathan will get ready to jam the lid on the cylinder once the aberration is inside it. I can't tell whether the way is open at our level directly to the north. If it is, we can put the cylinder there. If it isn't, Hewelathan can position himself and the cylinder about halfway between Rhaenys and due north.
Movement: Moving into position, 10' farther away from the sunken chamber than the cylinder itself. Action: cast guidance on Korba. Free Action: "equip" himself with the cylinder's lid
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Jodie moves closer and takes our her harp. "I can't help but play on the irony, after it they were creatures once..." She moves within 90' of the two advancing mouthers
My heart burns with feeling Open my mind, it's cold and reeling Is this love baby, or is it just confusion?
Seeing the abominations getting close to him Flinn bites his lip to fight the urge to turn ad go out of there running. He tightens the grip on Truthseeker and says to himself that they will be better put out of their missery. But he closes his eyes while swinging the mighty sword and fails miserably. “Open my eyes? Maybe it would help yeah,…”
Rhaenys pulls once more at the imaginary rope connecting her mind to the body of the mouther. But this time she feels the mouther way heavier than in the previous attempt...
(OOC: Got a natural one, guys. For a total of 5. Is this an automatic failure or can the mouther still roll poorer than me and be pulled another 30 feet?)
Seeing that Mouthers are now in melee with Flinn, Tytus will recast Create Bonfire on the spot of already damaged Mouther. Tytus just finished his incantation and now is performing the same one once again. It aligns itself perfectly starting to look like a ritualistic dance (also like well looped gif :P). The first fire dies out quickly while another one rises in new location.
Tytus gets on his one knee putting hands on the ground and starts moving his body up while his hands are dancing their way up as well up to above his head. while doing those motions he recites in unknown language: "jezdem panockiem piekelnickiego cieplobucha no to zem ja przychadzam wam ogonieja"
Action: Cast Create Bonfire. (Spell save DC=13, if failed damage is 6 fire damage.)
Movement: Stay close to Rhaenys.

Gibbering Mouther 1 manages to resist the telekinetic grip...
Just as Rhaenys moves the gibbering mouther up to the edge of the pit near the specimen cylinder, its amorphous body stretches and squeezes and changes shape. It eventually squirms free from the telekinetic grip and drops like a huge lump of loose, uncooked dough just at the edge of the ledge near the specimen cylinder, landing with a wet SPLAT sound.
Hewelathan realizes that the monster has broken free from Rhaenys's control, it's now on their level, and it is not contained in the specimen cylinder! He races forward, still holding the lid to the cylinder in his left hand and cries out, "Flinn! Korba! Help me get it in the container!"
When Hewelathan gets to the grotesque creature, it is just starting to rise up and ooze forward, its many mouths babbling in a cacophony of insane gibberish. He stares in horror for a moment, watching the creature's body ooze toward him. As the surging bulk of the creature presses the mouths at the front toward the ground, they bite down, holding on to the rock and stone to give the thing purchase as it moves.
Hewelathan looks uncertainly at the creature's mouth-covered body for a moment and then tries to jam the lid of the cylinder into the largest mouth he can see. He hopes that it'll give him something firm to hold onto while also preventing it from biting him. He grimaces as he grabs the glistening flesh of the creature not near any mouths (at the moment!). With a loud grunt he lifts and twists his body, trying to heave the thing up and into the cylinder in one throw.
Movement: 10' forward to the cylinder (I did not Action: shove gibbering mouther #1 up and into the cylinder: athletics14 (in game log) Spent 1 luck point to try to give the shove a higher DC, but the second roll was a 10 (rolled a nat 1!). 😭 Just hoping that the hex is enough to keep its roll under 14!

Jodie pauses to take it all in and offers a verse
So many mouthes on a mouther I see
On three mouthers mouthing at me
They start gibbering, withering I'll be
Run from mouther, no mouth from me

Korba knows his job at the moment is to maintain concentration, and keep an eye out. So he focuses on doing just that.
