Sunless Citadel

What and how much of Yas' treasure did Obsben grab before his next turn? Or besides the key was everything else nowhere to be found when we got back?

(If this gets back to Anton and he's still standing)

2-hand Kobold Smoosher Staff: Attack: 11 Damage: 10

Spinning Roundhouse Kick: Attack: 22 Damage: 4

Duh, I forgot flanking advantage rolls.

2nd roll for main attack: 2

2nd roll for kung-fu attack: 11

Cassius, Geths familiar gives you advantage on the attack.

If possible i would like to use my inspiration to reroll my attack: 22

(ooc: thanks, edited my post.)

Con Save: 15

Scar grimaces from the pain and then uses all of his remaining strength to lift his greataxe above his head and bring it down once more onto the chieftains head, hoping to split his skull open.

Reckless Attack: Attack: 21 Damage: 9

Cassius fires his crossbow, at the distracted Chieftan. The kobold barely manages to evade his bolt. His dodge however brings him into contact with Boh's inspired arrow. The Chieftan staggers into Scar's powerful swipe, hammering the him into the wall. He has no time to react as Antons mashes his face with his quarterstaff dropping him. Anton kicks him one last time for good measure and the Kobold Chieftan expires.  

Obsben: All the items previously described are there. Quaal's Tree Token, elixir of health, and three arcane spell scrolls. mage armor, spider climb, and knock. Including a small leather sack containing 37 gold, 31 silver, and a handful of small gems that are worth roughly 25 gold. 

Also I realized we just leveled up, but I didn't plan on you guys fighting the kobolds, haha. The XP from this battle takes you guys over 600, and to level 3. I know everyone is getting ready to rest after whatever RP'ing needs to be done.  So go ahead and level your characters during this rest. 

Anton examines the Chief's corpse.  Clearly the staff and shield are of interest and he grabs those.  If there's anything else of interest he'll grab that too.  He'll also check out the kobold grunt for gear.

During the rest he'll lay it all out for the group to see who can use what.

(I assume we can apply a long rest as part of leveling?)

(OOC Anyone else have issues with DND Beyond not showing new posts today?  I didn't get the new post indicator for 5+ hours on two different games.)

(Same issue here.)

Investigation 19

I collect my shortsword (where i am standing) and my dagger (throat of a dead kobold) and i search the kobold priestess and the Kobolds in the throne room. I always keep an eye on Calcryx and i keep a respectful distance to her.

Rolling HP (5+7).

Are we takeing a long rest or a short one? I am fine with either.

Anton requests that we take our long rest, then take an extra hour before we start off again.  If this is approved by the group, he'll spend 2 ki points to cast Darkvision on himself, then will regain his ki points in that last hour (short rest.)

During the rest period, Anton sits with Obsben and shows him some knots that are quick and effective for tying people up and not having them get loose.

(Yeah, I just saw a whole bunch of posts at once. No notification earlier)

Scar leaning against the wall and then sliding down to a sitting position speaks up, "A rest overnight is needed as it feels I am about to pass out from all the exertion, I will take the last watch, wake me when I am needed."

And with that Scar almost melds into the wall and passes out, dead to the world.

Realising that everyone is to tired to move on, Bhuraelea will do his best, to secure the hallway. I will block doors with pitons and where that isn't possible, I will lay tripwhires with bells.

I will also lay a defensiv perimeter of calltrops( outside the door that the Kobold chief came from) and ball bearings(where Geth was standing on the last map and at the s door of the prison) around us.

I will also take the first watch ( 12)

(Yeah I had no notifications this morning either. Server has been over run by Neogi.)

After a brief clearing of the rooms, you guy settle down for a well deserved rest. The shield the kobold chieftan was wielding has three spikes left. The mechanism for firing them looks to be a small lever on the handle of the shield. (Uses reaction to fire a spike (dex based attack, 1d6 dam)). The spear is  handmade, has a chipped flint head covered in foul smelling paste, and several feather tied to it. (poison is DC 10 con save or be poisoned 1 minute, about 2 uses left on the spear.) A search of the chief himself finds a pouch containing more of the poison paste, enough for 2 weapons. The chief also has a quiver with 6 poisoned arrows in it. 

A search of the rest of the kobolds turns up: 56 silver and 22 gold.

Your rest passes mostly uneventfully. 12 

Boh during your watch, movement catches your eye. It is Calcryx. She creeps quietly close to the slumbering party and takes a few moments to stare at each one of you. She looks at you, Boh, nods and says something in draconic. She slinks away, pulling up one of your pitons, and slips out the door heading for the citadel exit.

(oof, i think i'm going to have to homebrew battle master lol but yay level 3!)

No multi-classing as well, right? Because I have the itch to be a bit more helpful in the future.

OoC: Anybody have the ability to turn on content sharing so YoFizz doesn't have to manually enter battlemaster stuff? My slots are used up, sadly.

@Ranmilo, what are you thinking vis a vis Obsben's progression? As the only other caster, it seems to make sense to do some coordinating. Geth is focusing on illusion/enchantment manipulation type abilities, and also taking some buffs to partially fill in for our lack of cleric. Shatter would be useful for Obsben to have though, for example, since he seems to have a blasting emphasis. Empowered spell, maybe?

The moment -- THE INSTANT Obsben had finished stuffing everything in his hurry to grab something useful, he rushed back to the others. Relief and regret in mostly even measures crosses his feature. Suppressing the latter, Obsben focuses on fussing over the injuried however he could, and promising to cook more delicious stew for dinner, seeing as bedding down was in order. He only asks -- and this is with a great deal of reluctance, still regretful for not helping more -- for people to share at least a days worth of rations to make the most of it.

Cooking Up Din-Din(23)

In between cooking, he bashfully accepts the lessons from Anton, and gives thanks in return. Dutifully, Obsben at least tries to awaken Scar when its time to eat, but will save some for later for the bugbear if unable to do it gently. Before rest eventually takes everyone, he at least bring up what was found, but would just as well leave any discussion over division for after everyone woke up. Aside from accepting middle watch, Obs is content to sleep, and dreams...

Dream Excerpt: 

One of mists, and hills, and happier times in the sun. Sensing even then it was not to last, he braced himself for a memory of fire, of tears, and subsequent self-imposed loneliness. But it never came. Instead, as clouds began to block out the sun, and trepidation grew in his heart, someone grabbed his shoulder. He could not tear himself away from the fears. Not at first. But as a warmth began emanating from the touch, and spread throughout his beings, his heart settled down. As if to reflect his heart, the scene stablized on a moment he could not ever recall, but felt safe in all the while. 

As he sat there atop a hill, pipe in hand, and relieved smile on his face, he starts to turn towards the one that held on to him, having heard but failing to understand there words when....

 

The first thing obsben did upon awakening the first time around, he takes out the pipe to spend a small eternity staring at it and nothing else. Occasionally he whispers a name that stirred up parts of the dream, and left a longing that wouldn't fully abate. 

@Esker, It's not an intentional thing. I picked what I picked largely because it to me fit the Wild Magic theme of having secondary or unexpected results. With the exception of Control Flames and Mage Armor his getting a better grasp on things. While Shatter fits in that line of thinking for the former, I was leaning towards taking up either Bard or Cleric(Life(or Trickery, if there's Content Sharing)). He already had the persona for the supporting line role despite being what he is. 

It also took me this long to realize we didn't quite have something like that, so now would be a good opportunity for it given his backstory as both something of a far traveler and a seeker of a goddess' blessing... in the removal of another blessing.
