Pointing her staff at Nel now and the end crackling with engery the young druid's entire body seems to tense.
"Give me the map," the druid growls her voice twice the volume that is natural as the engery at the end of the staff flares out creating a flash like sunlight lighting up the jungle for a moment revealing several figures surrounding the group in the jungle around them!
OOC: The essentially is the post to indicate she's going to cast call lightning if any aggression was shown. The slap triggered that. If you're saying getting slapped in the face isn't an aggressive action uhh... IDK what is! By the reason the slap isn't an attack Gen's spell is still in response to it which still sets off initiative. She's been clearly ready with the staff out and then attacks first casting creating y'alls saves and then intiative.

OOC: Map to come. Working all day then conference the rest of the week. Please bear with me. Plants are 25ft to 30ft away. Gen is still 5ft to 15ft away from everyone. 5ft from Tobias, Nel, and Karnic whose prone. Garret rolled away 5ft I'm assuming?
Garrett up!
Plant 1 on deck.

OOC: I apologize Garrett would dodge or use evasion sure but would not get to 'move' he would get disadvantage on ranged attack that close. Did you factor that in I can't tell on mobile. He would not get movement away from Gen but just the uncanny dodge or evasion skill to 1/2 the lightning damage.
Plant 1 moves forward 20ft then uses a Vine attack against Tobias Attack: 11 Damage: 6 DC 12 con save against poison.
Plant 2 moves 20ft forward using a Vine attack against Nel 9 Damage: 4 DC 12 con save against poison.
Tobias up!
Gen and Jinx on deck!

Tobias was ready to strike back at the druid with his axe. However, seeing the number of animated plants coming through the trees and Karnic laying died at his feet, makes him second guess this course of action. He glances to the druid and the storm cloud overhead, to Nel holding the map and to Karnic again. He grits his teeth and yells, "HOLD!! Give her the map, Nel. Now... Please."
(Not sure if I can do a little more here.)
He kneels down and touches Karnic on the back and a looks to the druid. "He has learned his lesson, or I will make sure that he does. Take your map and go!" His hands glow with radiant energy and some of the cleric's wounds begin to close. (Lay on Hands, 1HP)

OOC Garrett is not within 5 feet of Gen so his ranged attack would not be made with disadvantage. Also his dex save to resist half damage from Gen's spell save is not a part of his action, it is part of her spell. I would still get my full action with movement and bonus action to hide.
OOC: Oh ok. Why wouldn't you use dodge ir evasion tho? Wouldn't it cancel both? The 1/2 and the save = none? I'd say Nel can 'hand over the map' as a free action.
As Tobias yells at him to drop the map Nelburn lets out a loud chuckle in astonishment before he speaks briefly in a grim tone "Over my dead body Sonny."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"There's no way any of you will be able to read it you fools," Gen growls as the lightning crackles around her.
Calling the lighting again hitting Karnic, Tobias, and Nel. DEX save DC15 DMG 10.
Plant 3 moves towards Nam farthest from the ground, it does not attack but prevents the sorcerer from leaving holding its attack for his next movement to flee or attack.
Plant 4 on deck.
OOC: I posted a fracking map last night but the site apparently ate it. I'm on campus so no map here. Next time I'll double check before passing out and the circus that has become my job lol
OOC: Why does Gen get advantage on damage for the Call Lightning spell? I don't believe that is such a thing. Plus did she cast the spell a second time? Because the damage she took from Garrett's attack would have broken her concentration on the first spell causing it to stop.
I just looked and she got advantage on the damage on the first attack also?

Flint initiative (8)
Ooc: Not saying that it's not aggressive, but that we shouldn't be surprise and Gen gets a free round.
(Flint is apparently a little slow moving after the last fight...)
Garrett initiative 22
Athene initiative 9
DC15 Dex save against 27 of lightning damage 1/2 if save as a bolt strikes arching out at each of you.

Garrett is able to roll away from the lightning strike yet he still feels the electricity arc across his body injuring him.

Garrett comes out of his roll with his crossbow aimed at Gen. He sends a bolt her way
Attack: 19 Damage: 13
If there is a place within 30 feet he can attempt to hide that doesn't put him within range of the plants he will use his Cunning Action to do that.
Stealth 22

(Uncanny dodge is a 5th level rogue ability, and Evasion isn't until 7th.)
OOC: OMG y'all I totally thought y'all were 6th or higher!! I got this game mixed up with Shepherds Saute!! I'm a dummy!!

(If you want to make us 6th level or higher, by all means... LOL)

As Tobias yells at him to drop the map Nelburn lets out a loud chuckle in astonishment before he speaks briefly in a grim tone "Over my dead body Sonny."
Tobias' shoulders sag in disappointment at the dwarf's reply. He turns and braces for the druid's response.
