[K will move to J13 and cast Ray of Frost at Squid 2] [9 to hit, and if it hits, 3 cold damage, and its Speed is reduced by 10 feet until the start of K's next turn.]
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
K's ray flies between the tentacles of the squid but Pushover strikes with her bolt it as it moves towards Sigurd. It spreads its tentacles out as it goes straight for Sigurd's face.
Squid 2 Attack: 21 Damage: 4; On hit, the squid will attach itself to Sigurd's face, blinding him and suffocating him as long as the squid is attached. Can break free with an action, STR DC of 13.
(Did move Pushover closer so she can hit the target.)
SIGURD: the rolls I made then were for breaking the hold (Advantage since still under rage, took half damage for 4). Missed on the bonus offhand attack.
Sigurd starts to sag a bit, looking a bit rough at the edges, says "Aye, still in fighting shape but very, very tired." He looks at the dragonling, "You understand us? Do you have a name?" and then repeats the question in Draconic.
The brass dragon raises its head and faces Sigurd, "O-of course I can! And if you must know, I am Dabshabah, proud daughter of Avnyr! Be honored to be in my presence!" She says in common, even adding a haughty upturned look to the party, despite still being pinned underneath the rubble.
Pushover'seyebrows raise with pleasant surprise as the dragon speaks. For others, Dabshabah's haughty tone would likely get on their nerves, but for Pushover, it's an easy signal that they consider themselves an authority figure, and she does best with those types of people; the type that often like conversing with someone that rarely, if ever, disagrees with them, and follows every order, like she does. Some would call that 'being a yes-man', but Pushover brushes those comments aside. For her, it just means that unnecessary tension is avoided, and Pushover knows her place any way.
'Great Dabshabah, it is the deepest of honours to meet one such as yourself,' she says with a curtsey and lowered head, 'Please, may we be of assistance and remove the boulders from your form? I doubt one you would have difficulties removing them by yourself, as I can tell you are extremely powerful, but I wouldn't want to have to put you through a burdensome effort that could otherwise be avoided.'
"By 'we' you mean..?" Grigor stands up straight and strikes a muscle pose, nudging Sigurd to see if the other impressively built, if awkwardly hairless man, would do the same. Whether solo or in tandem, he grins and twitches up his bushy eyebrows at Pushover and the dragon.
Sigurd snorts, then says the following, making sure he empathizes the syllables. "Well, Miss Dab sha bah, we'll get those rocks right off ya! May you live up to your name."
He then starts investigating the best way to get the rubble off the dragon, chuckling while he does so. (Investigation: 5)
If anyone asks Sigurd later why he was chuckling :
Dab sha bah is indonesian, a language known to many European pirates back in the 18th century, so I'd like to think it has a D&D equivalent here - it means "Thank you for your kindness."
It's difficult to say if Grigor is really helping or just showing off, but he does ask the dragon, "We're looking for a missing guards woman. Have you seem anyone like that come through?" Partly he's trying to distract the dragon from the discomfort as well. "And what happened here? Just bad luck?"

"Uh... that looks bad." Grigor keeps his position and takes careful aim at the beast. "Hang in there... Or, try to get out I mean."
steady aim with short bow 22 atk 7 (remembered to use savage attacker this time) +3 sneak 10 dmg
OOC: AH, my muddled mind, what I meant to say was I used my attacks rolls for the strength rolls, escaped, then missed on my bonus attack. I am free.

(For future reference, when you do attack an enemy from stealth, it will reveal you to the enemy, regardless of hit or miss.)
Grig's arrow plants itself into the squid's eye, making it release its grip on Sigurd as it falls to the floor.
Combat Over
"Everyone aright? Sigurd, you good?" He then begins collecting arrows, assuming one of the others would see to the dragonling.
((Not sure if that's for me, but Grigor used his BA Steady Aim for adv & sneak dmg both rounds. I assumed he wasn't hidden well enough for stealth))

((Very fun Easter egg XD))
Grigs is happy to back Sigurd up, both in investigating and heavy lifting. ((To give adv if checks are needed))
"So, uh, how'd you end up here anyway? Your...drango-majest-ness?"
Sigurd's Advantage for Investigation roll (Grigs help) 21

While it may be painful for the dragon, rolling the boulders off its wings seem to be the best course of action.
