 Before the attack, CHA save, DC 12.

Before the attack, CHA save, DC 12.

Zim Charisma roll DC 12 vs 6

As Zim comes to the side of Vaaz, an overwhelming presence bears down on him. Instead of attacking, he looks towards the statue and kneels before it.

(While kneeling Zim is unable to do any actions or reactions, he will be able to do another save during the end of his turns starting next round.)

Gorin steps in the opening, shoots out a fire bolt, and steps back to k4 again.

To hit: 17 for 9dmg.

BA new pulse of temp hp for every ally within 10ft of Zim: 11 temp hp ((NOTE: if you still have temp hp; you can choose which one to take))

Marasatra’s steps into the chamber are deliberate but quiet, her scale mail whispering faintly with each measured pace, keeping behind Zim’s path (moves to f4). The copper tang of blood and the faint scent of brimstone cling to the air as she raises her gaze to the masked figure in the corner (i2), her deep purple eyes narrowing as she takes in the details, is the man indeed shackled?

Without further delay, she presses forward toward (d2), her muted scholar’s robes gathering faint dust as she skirts closer to Vaaz’s flank. The faint scars on her hands split anew as she deftly draws her ritual blade against her own palm mid-step, anointing her spell as she extends her fingers toward him. Her voice is low and precise, words clipped with both quiet authority and disdain: “You speak of knives as if they write destiny… allow me to edit your line.”

The air around Vaaz grows heavy, as if the weight of ink-black ledgers and unseen quills presses down upon him, and she completes the incantation — Bane — directing the draining, oppressive mark onto him with an almost clinical detachment (DC 13).

She remains at his right side, staff still not drawn but her body poised, clearly observing him and the still-kneeling Zim with meticulous calculation — already noting the strange reaction to the statue for later study.

Move: g5, g4, f3, e2, d2 (counting the second diagonal move double, if it counts normal, she gets to c2)
Free?: glance at figure at i2?
Action: cast Bane targeting Vaaz with DC 13

Gorin singes the spot where Vaaz was shot before. "There we go! Let's have a fun time trying to kill each other!"

CHA Save: 21

The masked figure is slumped against the corner, their hands and feet bound with rope. There seems to be some blood on their dragon like mask.

Initiative Order -

"Now that we're acquainted, let's get intimate." He looks up to Arkon, the empty eye sockets seemingly staring deep at him. Arkon feels somewhat strange, as a memory of his fear is pulled to the forefront of his mind.

WIS Save, DC 14, on fail become stunned until the end of your next turn.

Damage Done:

• 25/?? to Vaaz

Arkon Wis save: 19

"Uh...No thanks. I'm good."

"Can't blame a guy for trying." He tries to stab Arkon. There's a weird sensation as if you could feel his bloodlust emanating from him.

Aura of Murder Active, any foe of Vaaz within 5 feet of him gain vulnerability to piercing damage.

Attack: 24 Damage: 8
Attack: 10 Damage: 8

Arkon Reaction: Stone's Endurance, reducing damage of Vaaz's first attack by 7 (making it 9 piercing due to vulnerability, correct?)

The goliath frowns, noticing that the stab seems to hurt more than it should.

The goliath frowns, noticing that the stab seems to hurt more than it should.

 (It should be 2 piercing damage (1st Damage Reduction, 2nd Resistance, 3rd Vulnerability, see PHB section about Damage))

Marasatra tightens her jaw as the blood-sigils sputter out against Vaaz’s will, 'Fine—different leverage.'

Without a word she snaps a finger; Ekko darts from behind Zim, wings flickering past Vaaz’s eyes to draw his gaze and spoil his footing for Arkon’s next swing (help action). Then, Ekko folds its wings and tucks in behind Arkon’s massive frame, using the goliath’s bulk as living full cover before streaking on toward the bound captive in the corner. Marasatra stays planted where she is, shield angled toward Vaaz, ready for the next exchange.

Ekko's action: He helps Arkon
Ekko's move: He moves behind Arkon still in Vaaz's 5ft range, yet out of sight, then he peels off towards the captive (g3).

(Ups, sorry!! I just saw that I jumped the gun, it's Sarris' turn first.)

(Well, after take this as Ekko's turn. The idea is that he gets out of sight while still within 5ft range, then since he's in full cover and thus unseen, he'd move out of melee range without risking an attack of opportunity. Please, let me know if that doesn't work.)

After seeing Vaaz shrug off a direct arrow hit, Sarris decides to attempt a different move.   
He has to move forward to get within 60 feet for it to work so he moves to J3.
With a set of hand motions and a spoken phrase, he will attempt to strike with Starry Wisp  - producing a mote of light which speeds to Vaaz.

To Hit:  10         Dmg:  5 radiant + 4 force (Hunter's Mark) == 9

Sarris will step back to M3 and prepare another arrow when an opening shows itself.

Arkon takes advantage of the tiny bat distracting Vaaz to level a powerful strike at the cultist, his massive sword falling with the force of a landslide, followed by a second swing for good measure.

Action: greatsword to hit with advantage 18, damage 13

Action Surge: greatsword to hit 20, damage 15

(Gaaah, the rolls, spending luck point to reroll attack roll: 12 )

(Sorry, had to do a a few all nighters for work. Got too tired to update my campaigns during that time.)

Vaaz welcome all blows besides the mote of light which went astray. His skull cackles, "That's it! Make death a spectacle!"

Boss is Bloodied, activating desperate measures.

Damage done:

• 65/?? to Vaaz

Sarris frowns as he sights in on Vaaz, "Keep yapping..." he mutters as he exhales and releases his arrow.

To Hit:  10      *facepalm*           Dmg:  11 piercing + 2 force = 13

With bodies twisting and turning as they jockey for position around Vaaz, Sarris missed the perfect window for his shot.
