Mister_Whisker Presents: Chronicles of the Accursed

Robin lifts the wine bottle she swiped from the Baron’s cellar—ready to throw it.

Then pauses.

“…Nah.”

She tips it back and chugs straight from the bottle.

“Prosit, sukers!!”

With a flick of her wrist--SMASH!

Glass explodes across the stone floor, the crack echoing through the tunnel to draw every eye.

(Help Action to Balthathar’s next attack.)

Prosit — “to your health.” From Latin (“may it benefit”). Used as a toast in several European cultures—sometimes followed by smashing the glass, if you’re Russian… or just a drunken Devil girl. 

The massive heavily tattooed goliath charges into the swarm of cultists, swinging wildly at it.

Heavy swing: 29 Bludgeoning: 16 (Sap)
Another on: 17 Bludgeoning: 14 (Sap)

Cultist Swarm is now down 39 HP (Thorgath at it again lol) and have disadvantage on next attack.

The wraiths are up... and I'll warn you now... they're nasty.

Wraith 1 targets Thorgath with a magical effect of some kind...

Please make a DC 13 Dex save against 18 fire damage (half damage on success)

The second one targets Abishai, seeing that he just sicked a robot on the cultists. DC 13 Dex save against 8 fire damage (half-damage on success). I'll consider this a magical effect and allow you advantage from the Ring of Spell Turning (I think that item needed a bit of a buff anyway since everything has spell-like effects now).

Dhamila and Balthathar are up next!

Round 1

'Way to go, little sis!' thinks Dhamila, smiling at the distraction and the chaos caused by the lively little devil—and she takes advantage of the situation to lunge at the Cultists' Swarm with her magic blade, before moving to position herself behind the other characters.

As she passes Balthathar, the Runaway tiefling murmurs to him: "Now I'm away from the Cultists—in case you want to hit them with area-of-effect spells."

[[ OOC: Action: Attack vs Cultists with +1 Rapier Bonus Action: Dash Movement: Moves to position herself behind the other characters ]]

Dhamila's Rapier Attack: 23 Damage: 9 (magical piercing) + 6 (sneak attack) = 15

Dex save: 15/20 +2 = 22

Abishai easily dodges the magical fire coming at the tinker, thanks in part to his ring. It was an odd thing... the ring. It somehow allowed the Red Dragonborn to anticipate when and where spells were coming from that targeted him directly. He had no idea how the ring worked and that bugged the tinker to no end, but he was glad for the rings protection all the same. In that same split-second, Abishai considered sending the fire back at his attacker, but figured a monster made of fire would likely be unaffected by it.

[[OOC: @DM My Ring of Spell Turning states the spell has no effect on me if cast at 7th level or lower. Do I still take 4 points of fire damaged, halved to 2 points thanks to my draconic ancestry?]]

Balthathar nods to Dhamila—or where the invisible girl ought to be.

“Now… this is going to be a bloodbath.”

And his patron will love it.

With a low incantation and precise gestures, the elf warlock unleashes a storm of living knives into the midst of the cultists.

Then he shifts his position, slipping behind whatever cover is available.

(Casts *Cloud of Daggers*, then take half cover if possible.)

Cloud of Daggers

Damage with no save: 8

(Thorgath Dex save: 22)
