Lawrance, seeing the looming threat above some of the most vulnerable members of his party, races over there on horseback, readying and timing his next spell. While he rides, another bolt of electricity sizzles from the storm and tries to do more injury to the demon.
Attack: 21 Damage: 18
OOC - With Shield and Absorb still ready, he will get within 30' of the three threatened by the Balor and prepare to cast Resilient Sphere on the primary target of the demon, most likely Lia. If using his Arcane Ward (reaction) would work to block a split attack, he'll use it to defend the stronger target. His move will be the full 100' and end at AH8, giving the Balor wide distance.

Lia cries out in great agony. Blood and charred flesh mar her beauty. Mari calls to her fiercely. " Run Lia. I will stop it. " Lia backs away carefully from the Balor and then moves as fast as she can towards Velon, Poljen and Silas. As she does so she channels Sune's healing through her body and into her friends. The cool touch soothes her pain a little.
Mari drops her bow and moves to confront the Balor. She draws one blade free and heads towards the rear of the creature. Her blade rips towards the huge form as her anger gives her strength. " Don't run from me you coward, " She says mockingly.
OOC: Lia disengaged as her action and mass healing word as her bonus action. Everyone in the group gets 14 hit points. Mari moved to flank and strikes with advantage.

(Dai Velon wouldn't actually really need Absorb Elements in this case because his Elemental Affinity already halves that fire damage and it's not worth a spell slot to halve again to save 7 damage. He thus would have his Reaction free for the AOO. Thx)
As the Balor moves away Velon joins Poljen in taking a parting shot, his draconic magic punishing the Balor for moving away...
Booming Blade AoO (because of Warcaster) w/GWM: Attack: 25, Weapon Damage: 25, Thunder damage w/ him moving anyway: 23
Velon gets dragged along with the Balor's flight temporarily and is sent hurling to the ground again but his magic armor protects him from much of the fall. Despite his magical haste he takes a moment to get up and is slow to get back into the fight. As he's moving back towards the Balor he drops his shield and pulls out a potion and drinks it down. Tossing aside the empty flask the paladin then draws his Wand of Magic Missiles and unloads it on the Balor.

*Shield* spell to be used if taking any attack roll based damage
*Absorb Elements* also on the table if the damage exceeds the damage Shield would block, or exceeds 20, or would kill Velon, although fire is already halved in this encounter with E.A. active now.
Mari and Poljen strike hard at the Balor while Cratol continues to pepper it with crossbow bolts. Silas moves closer to help as well, covering Lia's escape.
The demon lord for its part strikes hard at Mari, snarling as his blade bounces off of a shimmering field of force projected by Lawrence. Instead of trying to break through, the fiery whip lashes out, at the spellcaster who had dared to interfere, whipping around Lawrence's torso.
Mari and Poljen take 21 and 19 fire damage respectively from the aura. Lawrence takes 18 slashing and 12 fire damage, in addition to the strength check to avoid being pulled to the Balor. Don't forget the concentration check if you plan to keep the sphere up. Storm Sphere is down.
Interposing his Ward against the Abyss-forged whip of the Balor, Lawrance barely feels the heat of it's fury but still is tugged towards the demon by the restraint.
STR vs DC20 (HA! As if) 20
Pulled from his magical steed, Lawrance is dragged across the cavern floor and into the heat aura. Unwilling to stay there, the wizard detangles himself from the whip, hurries back to his Steed to mount it, and fires another bolt at the demon, trying another form of energy.
Polychrome IceBolt Attack: 11 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

Sustaining the bubble on Mari, Lawrance 'paths #Let me know when you want to be out of the bubble, Mari. # and will drop it as soon as she asks.

“No, no, this won’t do,” Perry says to a few satyrs in the still-damaged courtyard. “His wings are a bit larger than that. We really need to capture his essence for this new centerpiece.”
Perry points to a statue of Shadowsnacks that is being built in the center of the castle courtyard as he directs the Fey with instructions.
“But Perry, we don’t need all of this, see. Shouldn’t we focus on getting the castle functioning first?” Shadowsnacks asks.
Perry turns to look at the puzzled Pegasus and replies to his not unreasonable question, “Nonsense, Shadowsnacks! In order for this castle to fly again like it once did, we need to make it LOOK like a proper castle! It’s very important to make a statement. Besides, it’s not like I’m neglecting the proper repairs, I’ve even enlisted the help of the local populace to help us. I’m paying them in jokes and Poppo’s pastries.”
“Gee well, I guess that’s okay then Perry,” the steed replies, sounding a little unsure. “What about Lia and Velon’s room? We were supposed to fix it.”
“Oh don’t you worry about that, my friend. It’s coming along nicely. Come, I’ll show you,” Perry says.
The two of them go to Lia and Velon’s room and the room looks really nice. However, much of it looks different. The walls are all painted a dark purple with gold trim outlining all of it.
“Doesn’t it look amazing, pal?” Perry asks the steed.
“You know what Perry, it does,” the steed nods. “I think Lia will like it. This is going to be a real hit, Perry,” Shadowsnacks says. “What about the hot tub and Sinternal’s play area?”
“Ah yes, I’ve made changes there too. Come see,” Perry replies.
They head down to the hot tub area in the dragon cavern. The hot tub overlooks a fake dragon hoard below. Now however, there are dancing lights that change colors hovering about the hot tub.
“I've added mood lighting,” Perry brags with a grin. “What do you think? I had Poppo and the Fey help me with it.”
“Woooooooow, Perry,” Shadowsnacks replies. “This is really great. I'm certain they will love this.”
This is just part 1 of Perry's shenanigans. I will post more next round so as to not create a tome from the getgo. Lol, good luck with the Balor fight guys. Don't die please.
Cratol keeps moving around the Balor as he shoots it with his crossbow. He tries to stay behind the Balor in hopes of getting it to turn around and allow his friends to escape away from it if they need be or get better chances of hitting it.

Velon watches his wand disintegrate but shrugs in confusion and quickly moves on, approaching the Balor opposite Silas to unleash whatever else he can on the monster. He calls upon thunder and Bahamut's divine furry to help end this as soon as possible.

Seeing Perry and Shadowsnacks in the hallway, Morgaine greeting them with smile and tells them "Good Morning" or Afternoon,..whichever the case may be.
" Its good to see you both again. What you up to?"
Knowing that she must heal herself in order to keep her companions alive, she summons the power of Sune yet again. Lia feels a little stronger now. She then studies the scene closely to plan what she needs to do next.
Mari cries out in pain and anger. " Lawrance, drop the shield. " .Once it is dropped she concentrates on using all of her skill in ending this creature. Her blades move so quickly now that they seem invisible. Her eyes glint as they strike home.
OOC: Lia uses cure wounds level 2 on herself and regains 16 hitpoints.
Mari uses her action surge to get another action which she uses for another atfack giving her 3 total. She also uses her battle maneuver ( precision strike ) to get another d8 to use on any strike she wishes and it will be the first one. Sneak attack will be added to the 2nd attack which was a crit. All attacks are with advantage. +8 attack bonus needs to be added to each roll.
Poljen feels the heat once more scorching his flesh and tries to ignore it. They have been causing the balor much pain and damage, so he keeps swinging his axe. But now, he is starting to laugh. "Ha! You will be gone from our plane soon! HA!"
Cratol fires a few more bolts, but with no luck while Mari, Velon, Polejn and Silas continue to strike at the Balor, ignoring as best they can the gouts of flame burning them as they do so. The Balor is definitely feeling the punishment, especially the radiance charged blows from the paladin, but it doesn't seem to be afraid.
Meanwhile, Lawrence is busy trying to get away, but takes a glancing blow from the Balor's blade, and is barely back up on his horse when the fiery whip lashes out and wraps around him yet again. While the wizard is still flying through the air, the Balor swings and hits him yet again.
Okay, so, really bad round for the party wizard. Aoo longsword hit for 30 damage, then a whip hit for 28 damage, and then a regular sword strike for 37. I do believe that even with whatever's left of his Ward, that'll put him down to 0. Either way he's been pulled to end up next to the Balor again.
For the others, Mari, Velon, and Poljen get to enjoy 31, 21, and 29 fire damage respectively.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"You keep attacking the weaker ones! I thought you would be braver! You shall fall!" Poljen keeps swinging the axe, hopeful that the next strike will be the one that puts the demon down for good.

Velon keeps swinging away at the Balor, fearful of the consequences if they are victorious. He trusts in Lia and Sune, but hopes there will be enough left of his companions who fall to promptly restore their vitality.

Mari cries out in agony and drops to the floor as the fire overwhelmes her. Lia gasps as both Mari and Lawrance collapse. Holdimg her amulet high she channels the power of Sune through herself again. The amulet pulses and bright energy pulses strike her friends. As they stand up somewhat recovered she yells, " Get away from it!"
Mari gasps in agony as she recovers consciousness. She regains her footing quickly and moves quickly away while trying to present no easy target.
Lia casts mass cure wounds. Lawrance, Mari, Poljen, Cratol and Velon each recover the rolled amount of hit points. Mari uses the disengage action to getaway.

Hand on the saddle horn, Lawrance cries out as the electricity of the sword's magic tears into his back. Just as he pulls himself up into the saddle, he once again feels the whip wrap around his robed body, only this time his Ward isn't there to protect him! With a loud, painful scream of "Oghma!" , he is lifted aloft, the fires searing deep into his flesh, closing his eyes from the pain. Still flying through the air, he barely feels the sword slice deep into his writhing form, the massive blade sending him into blissful unconsciousness.
His next coherent thought is pain - solid, steady pain throughout his body , only fading slightly as the healing powers of his friend's deity repair some of the damage. Eyes still closed, his Robe imparts all the details of his immediate peril and he disappears with a word, reappearing far from the demon! Still with eyes closed as he tries to adjust to the abuse he has received - far worse than anything he's ever endured before - he calls out to his familiar #Gamliel! Guide my aim on this# and uses his enhanced senses to fire another bolt of radiance into the demon from afar. Weakly he 'paths #Thank you, Lia. He's too powerful for me to remain close to.#

Cratol continues to stay behind the Balor as much as he can shooting it with his cross bow. If someone goes down he will pull them back out of the way if possible.
The Balor laughs at Poljen's jibe, "What, are you jealous of the attention? Don't worry, I'll get to you. Now stay still you tasty little morsels."
The team continues to strike at the seemingly indomitable demon. Silas casts a spell, and the Balor stiffens up, but only for a few moments before shaking off the effects.
Velon and Poljen take 18 and 23 fire damage respectively. Silas cast Hold monster, Balor passed the second save, so it lost one turn.
Teleporting again into a new location to avoid any attacks, Lawrance's magic then wraps around a stone chunk in the area and launches it at high speed towards the Balor, hoping to damage it in a more traditional way.
