Balmaris slashes into Black Creature 4, drawing some of the shadow off the figure.
The creature turns to face Balmaris and moves to return the strike! As it moves away, Finlan takes advantage of the opening and swings at the creature.
Finlan Opportunity Attack on Black Creature 4 18 for 9 piercing damage.
Black Creature 4 Attack on Balmaris: 14 for 7 necrotic damage. On hit, your Strength is reduced by 1 as well.

Creak will Disengage from the creature attacking him and run toward Balmaris, attempting to skewer the creature attacking him, Attack: 9 Damage: 12 piercing + 2 sneak attack damage.
The battle was happening almost too fast for Rynna to follow but she knew her friends were in trouble. Casting another magic missile at one of the creatures circling Belmaris, she watched in satisfaction as they hit true.
Creak stabs out at the creature, but misses woefully. However, it's enough of a distraction that the inky black monstrosity doesn't even recognize Rynna slinging the lightly shimmering missiles of power straight into its back. The final missile obliterates the figure into in a swirl of mists, and it fades from existence.
Black creature 3, seeing comrades falling so readily, moves back from its position away from all the adventurers against the wall, and attempts to fade into the shadows there.

Finlan skewers the creature, causing it to fade away as its compatriots had. Only the hidden creature remains. DC10 Perception (per the previous post) or the attack is at disadvantage. :)

Perception: 20
With his keen bird eyes, Creak leaps toward the shadow! Attack: 23 Damage: 6 piercing damage (plus 5 if anyone is in 5 feet of it.) He then Disengages and runs back!
The sudden emptiness within where her spells once resided made Rynna feel all too vulnerable. Well, nothing for it now. Raising her hands she began to cast fire bolt.
Attack: 16 Damage: 2
I am so sorry! I thought I posted via mobile while I was away but I guess that flubbed.
(So many apologies folks. I keep forgetting to update when things like my sister's wedding happens and I just up and disappear! I thank all of you for sticking it out).
Creak and Rynna both make connecting attacks, though the fire bolt seems to cause it far more direct pain, based on the nasty recoiling motion it made, which reveals its position to everyone. It swoops towards Rynna of the burning fire, drawing an opportunity attack from Balmaris, Finlan, Creak, and Adric, all of whom were in the path. The attack on Rynna will only happen if the gauntlet of opportunity doesn't kill the creature.

Gralwynn, seeing her other flesh in danger, goes against her better judgment and makes a decision in favor of the long term, lashing out at the creature's inky form with Primal Savagery!
Attack: 12 Damage: 3
Unsure of what this sensation was, of her nails going through it with minimal resistance, all she could tell of this creature was that her claws were definitely just inside of it, whatever that meant, considering it's current ethereal nature.
