"Hey, we killed a giant murder tree and an ogre.  How much trouble can a lizard be?" Froskan asks.

"EXACTLY! Murder tree and blind ogre mother or a big lizard? I choose lizard please!"

"Well, I only suggest for being careful, but I guess we are very confident about this." Reverie chuckles again, looking at Trim, "I'm sure we all can do this. Let's do our best."

Trimyrai starts to follow the foot prints he spotted. (going along the forest?)

Your group continues following the trail of prints. The brushes and tall grasses sometimes get thick enough to make it difficult to see more than a short distance, but the edge of the forest is still visible to your right, and the grasses in front of you have been trampled down by the stampeding lizards.

You stop as you abruptly come across another dead Deinonychus, with stab wounds the same as the last one. Ahead of you, 150' away, is the massive Stegosaurus! It is lying on the ground, either resting or asleep. Its left side has multiple slashes and bites, and the tail spikes covered with lizard blood. It is facing away from you, and hasn't reacted to your presence yet. (On a clock, if the head is at 12 and the tail at 6, you are approaching it from 8 o'clock.)

Theren draws his swords, waiting for a signal from the others.

"Is that it?  Jack whispers.

”I guess it is, ” Reverie whispers back as she watches the creature from afar. Soon, she grabs her scimitar and a dagger on the other hand before she looks at the others for an approval to attack.

"OK." Jack pulls out his dagger and prepares to throw it, Readying to strike on someones signal.

"That's quite the 'lizard'," Froskan whispers. "Looks like it's already injured."  He points to the slashes in it's side.

Trimyrai gets an arrow from his quiver and starts to aim.

Trimyrai: (to the party [in a whisper]) "I'm ready when you guys are."

Froskan nods to Reverie, indicating she should attack.

(Your group is 150' away. Are you slowly approaching, trying to be stealthy? Rush in? Wait for it to come to you? )

(incase of stealth)

Stealth: 21

Theren tries to approach without making any sound.

Stealth: 16

Reverie also moves quietly as she walks towards the wounded side of a lizard.

Stealth - 6

( The dice has betrayed me!! D: )

(OOC: It is a group check. I'll take a Survival roll from Jack and Froskan and use it for their Stealth... Unfortunately, their rolls weren't great either.)

Your group gets to within 80' of the Stegosaurus, when Reverie steps on a dry branch that cracks under her weight. You all pause, then let out a sigh of relief when nothing happens. Then a gust of wind blows dust into Jack's nose, and he sneezes loudly.

You look ahead to the Stegosaurus. It is no longer moving. From a distance, you thought the body shifting was breathing, but you now see that it was due to 2 Deinonychus that were feeding on the dead Stegosaurus from the other side. They leap over the body and Dash to your group, one in melee range of Froskan, the other on Jack.

At the same time, a third Deinonychus charges from 30' behind, and attacks Reverie.

(OOC: Reverie, Froskan, and Jack are surprised this round: no actions. There is an attack on Reverie, then Theren and Trim get to act.)

The Deino makes 2 claw attacks on Reverie. Attack1: 7 Damage: 3 Attack2: 13 Damage: 4

Reverie deflects the first claw attack with her mailed forearm, but the 2nd claw hits her square in the chest. Reverie takes 5 damage and is knocked prone. (OOC: There is a STR save to avoid being knocked prone. I used your last Survival roll, which turned out to be low.)

(Theren and Trim to act. After that, the 3 Deinonychus will attack, followed by all five of you allowed to respond.) Campaign public notes section updated.

Trimyrai is going to try to hit the closest deinonychus

Movement: no movement this turn (unless im out of range 150 (600) is the range of my long bow) [if out of range i move close enough to shoot])

Action: Attack: (if i'm in range) 18 (attack with longbow/piercing)

Damage: (if it hits) 7 (piercing damage)

Bonus Action: Trimyrai: (to Jack) "So much for our contest"

edit: (a natural 20 on attack is that a critical hit?)

(Roll damage again, we've got a crit! [unless you are in melee, then roll again and use lower roll.])

(no modifiers for crit damage.)

(OOC: Your group is spread out a bit, but still close together. Everyone is within moving range of each other, but anyone in current melee range of a dinosaur would risk an opportunity attack if they tried to move to help someone else.

Looks like EmperorKarino used 2 separate rolls instead of the DnDBeyond combat roll? That is fine. I will double the damage roll for the critical... Since one of the Deinos is going to get advantage on its attacks on the prone Reverie, that seems like a good target.)

Trim's arrow goes completely through the hip of the lizard that attacked Reverie, doing 9 damage. It hisses in anger, but stays focused on the prone prey.

(Theren to act.)
