Charred Brute 1
Charred Brute 2

Abishai's blast of ice strikes the closer brute. It staggers... then points at Abishai and green flames engulf him!

Abishai, make a Dex save (DC 12) or take 16 fire damage (half damage on success)!

[[Dex save w/ Adv: 18/4 Success: The spell has no effect on me thanks to my Ring of Spell Turning.]]

Abishai holds his former master's ring up as he sees the reactionary spell being cast at him and deflects the spell back onto the caster just in the nick of time. The green flames appear to absorb into the tinker's ring before rerouting back to the Charred abomination. He cringes as the ring's curse assaults his body and mind, but thanks to his natural proclivity for magic absorption, lessens the damage by 4hp.

[[OOC: @DM Do you roll 1d8 necrotic curse damage or would you like me to? Also, the notes say "Once per day..." Does that mean I can use the ring again in similar fashion while avoiding the curse damage?]]

[[OOC: I can go ahead and roll the curse damage. As for "Once per day..." YES! Exactly what you're thinking is correct. You can use the ring again after if you get hit with another spell before the end of the day]]

Charred Brute 2

[[IOOC: What is between us and the charred brutes? It looks like a red pool with 3 pillars around it. Is this a pool of blood? Magma? or just a red carpet? More specifically, is this something that looks safe to walk across?

And thanks for rolling init for Brynja, that saves everyone from waiting hours for me to get up.]]

Round 1

Dhamila is impressed by the former bandit's magical attempt to react to Abishai's attack. Hoping to strike the monster before it recovers from the surprise of the deflected fire (and thus fails to send fire back at her too), she takes aim at him with her shortbow—and fires an arrow into his chest.

Dhamila's Shortbow Attack: 8 Damage: 4 (piercing)

[[Ooc: It's just red tiles. And you're welcome.]]

Dhamila's Shortbow Attack: 8 Damage: 4 (piercing)

The arrow flies past the charred creature, bouncing off the cracked stone wall behind it.

Balthathar leans back as a wave of scorching heat rushes past him.

“It breathes fire—these things are fire-breathing zombies!”

This is bad. If they explode like that, he can’t risk closing in with his blade. Worse, the mausoleum offers no cover.

He steps back five feet and calls out,

“Robin—get between me and that zombie!”

“Hey, boss! You're thinking what I’m thinking?”

“Yes.”

Action Schedule

Bonus Action: Cast Hex

 on Charred Brute 1

Ready Action:Eldritch Blast—trigger after Robin blocks the brute’s direct line of attack

Attack: 7 Damage: 3

Hex:2

I forgot the Damage dice again.

Eldritch Blast Damage 12

Also Robin is preparing for next Help Action 

Balthathar's blast hits Charred Brute 1 squarely, and triggers the Hex damage (it looks like you did have the damage roll in your original post, so I'll use it), inflicting 3 Force and 5 Necrotic damage to the burning corpse.

OOC: Sorry, I forgot to include the damage dice in post #417 and rolled them in #418 instead. (Balthathar’s spell attack is +3 )

The correct damage is: Eldritch Blast 6 + Hex 5 = 11.

Apologies for the confusion.

Charred Brute 1 - 28 damage
Charred Brute 2

Brynja charges across the mosaic to engage the charred brute on the left, swinging her new improved hammer to get its attention.

Attack 22 for 11 bludgeoning damage

The massive heavily tattooed goliath easily leaps over the dangerous lava floor and crashes into the closest charred brute, knocking him over the head with a torch before giving him a knee in the groin.

Athletics to coss deadly lava floor: 28
Torch to charred head: 20 Bludgeoning: 11 (non-lethal, sap)
Knee to charred crotch:: 21 Bludgeoning: 15 (non-lethal, sap)
