Your first (but by no means last if you survive long enough) dragon has been defeated! You each get 150gp and chance to go shopping and listen for rumours.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Man! That dang near one shotted me! lol. Definitely changing out my fighting style the first chance I get, but first...
Perception: 18 plus 3 using tactical mind if the d20 Test was a fail.
You have a mind for tactics on and off the battlefield. When you fail an ability check, you can expend a use of your Second Wind to push yourself toward success. Rather than regaining Hit Points, you roll 1d10 and add the number rolled to the ability check, potentially turning it into a success. If the check still fails, this use of Second Wind isn’t expended.
The spirit was strong, but the body was not! Still, Gimmond remained standing despite nearly having his armor completely sundered, and after taking some serious time to nurse his wounds, set about trying to pay a bit more attention to the rumors and try to prepare appropriately.

Gimmond grimaces as he reminded of an old skirmish with an infernal cult, but relays what he could of the encounter to the party. "Fire will be a no go for the next one, and for the love of the Great Hammerer, do NOT let there beards touch you."

I am assuming you start all at the same entrance that you did the first time. And the two devils appear in the arena above the centre grate, summoned to fight. You all get to react first, and are about 20ft away from them both. (Calling them A and B) I will get a map updated for this when I can. Possibly this afternoon, possibly later this week.
Athos will charge into the fray and swing his longsword at A for 14 to hit for 9 slashing damage. If that hits, he will use his bonus action to add in a divine smite for 13 additional radiant damage. "Back to the abyss with you!" He shouts as he attacks.
His proficiency with longsword imposes Sap on hit.
"Alright. The arena isn't large, but if we play our cards right-" Gimmond's muttering of a plan comes to an abrupt halt as he watched Athos charged immediately into the fray. Yet with only but a shrug, the dwarf barrels into the fray, aiming to get within five feet of both; but, barring that, he'd settled for keeping the one Athos hadn't struck occupied by swinging his war pick merrily towards the hip of a devil. And as he did so, he called back to Zumfir, "Get moving if ya need ta, Lass!"
Mo: Using up to 25ft to get within 5ft of both Bearded Devils(if not possible, angling for Devil B/Opposite of Athos' target) Ac: One-Handed Warpick vs Dragon(AC ??) - To Hit: 25(+3 from bless) For: 14 Critical Piercing Damage. On first attack to hit, using maneuver attack to deal an additional 4 piercing damage and allowing Twinkle to spend reaction to move half his speed before taking his turn. If hit, target is also Sapped, rendering its next attack roll at disadvantage.
Sap. If you hit a creature with a War Pick, that creature has Disadvantage on its next attack roll before the start of your next turn.

Twinkle eyes the fiends, thinking that fire probably wouldn't do any good here.
She focuses in on herself, imbuing herself with elemental powers and then also takes a few steps towards the devils, following Gimmond. She launches her attacks from 15 feet distance, observing the opponents reactions.
Attack 1: 24, damage: 10 thunder BA Attack 2: 8
Afterwards, still having her full movement thanks to Gimmond, she will move 30 feet (a total of 45 feet) away from the devils.
Athos hits. The radiant damage doesn't seem any more powerful than it would be on a regular enemy.
Gimmond gets a powerful hit in, dealing almost as much damage with a basic pick as Athos did with a magical strike.
Twinkle hits (though I need to know which one. I assume B as that is the one Gimmond did)
Zumfir narrowly misses.
The devils attack Athos and Gimmond (each one on the one who attacked them). Both at disadvantage for their first attack (their beards). leading to a 12 and a 7.
They then both try and swing their Infernal Glaive's at you. Nat 1 on Athos. And a Nat 20 on Gimmond.... 17 slashing damage, and you need to make a DC12 con save (failure: The target receives an infernal wound. While wounded, the target loses 1d10 Hit Points at the start of each of its turns. The wound closes after 1 minute, after a spell restores Hit Points to the target, or after the target or a creature within 5 feet of it takes an action to stanch the wound, doing so by succeeding on a DC 12 Wisdom (Medicine) check.)
Gimmond tried to bear and grin it, but a strangled cry still escaped from him from the blow. Zumfir's blessing yet sustained him, and after digging deep for strength, Gimmond tried lashing out with the pick, only to be denied a clean hit. "Athos! Switch!"The dwarf's call is accompanied by him shield checking the devils as he maneuvered about to take the paladin's place. After which, Gimmond's stance remained not one in defense of self as much, but instead of Athos.
(ooc: Gimmond is just a regular 'ol crit magnet!)
Con Save vs DC 12: 13
Ba: Second Wind, restoring 9 HP. Ac: One-Handed Warpick vs Bearded Devil(AC ??) - To Hit: 8(+2 from bless for 10)For: X Piercing Damage. Mo: Swap Places with Athos, granting him plus 8 to AC with Bait and Switch Maneuver.
When you’re within 5 feet of a creature on your turn, you can expend one Superiority Die and switch places with that creature, provided you spend at least 5 feet of movement and the creature is willing and doesn’t have the Incapacitated condition. This movement doesn’t provoke Opportunity Attacks.
Roll the Superiority Die. Until the start of your next turn, you or the other creature (your choice) gains a bonus to AC equal to the number rolled.

"All right then." Athos switches with Gimmond and takes a swing at Devil B. 25 to hit, for 13 slashing damage and an added smite for 6 more radiant damage. "That's for my friend!"
[Yeah Twinkle moved with Gimmond and targeted the same devil, should have specified sorry]
The monk rushes around to flank the devil (B) from the side, hammering another fistful of thundrous energy into it. As before, she stays well clear, but is this time only 20 feet away from it at the end of her turn, towards the south end of the arena.
That will do it! It has 14hp left.

Athos will keep saving and is pretty distracted with celebrating on his first dragon fight.
Good job everyone!
Twinkle stashes her coins and has a look around, but as usual, she is easily distracted. Perception: 5

Zumfir won't buy anything
Zumfir, you hear that you are due to fight fiends. Gimmond, you hear that it is specifically two bearded devils.

Zumfir will bless everyone, ready for next combat.
"Beards...What's wrong with their beards?" Athos mutters to himself as he prepares.
