Sunless Citadel

I will move next to Scar, if Durn is still standing, I will attack with my shortsword(26 for 9), befor I draw my dagger to either finish him off or throw the dagger at the closes blight aiming for a sneak attack(25 for 9)

Extra d6 for crit hit: 2

Geth steps in the room, pulling out his crossbow, and attempts to correct the error that is the continued survival of the one they call Durnn, then steps back out. 

Attack: 21 Damage: 7

Durnn, off balance and reeling from the weight of his axe in his injured hands, suddenly stiffens. His axe clatters to the floor and he reaches up trying to grasp the crossbow bolt protruding from his scalp. He falls backwards against the wall. 

Bho hits the needle blight full force with his short sword, sending bits of bark and twigs soaring into the chasm in the middle. Your dagger *tings* off the stone floor as you stab toward the place where the needle blight has just been. 

The hobgoblin sends his shield out in a wide sweep in front of Anton, quickly following it with a quick thrust of his long sword Attack: 23 Damage: 12 if it hits he applies his martial advantage adding 6 damage. 

It is now Antons turn, followed by blights. Then round 3 starts with Obsben.

(OOC: To clarify, did Boh kill the Blight north of Anton?)

Anton steps up on to the throne(?) to his west, and towering over the hobgoblin, he brings his quarterstaff down with both hands on to its head.

Attack: 20 Damage: 11

He then focuses his ki and assumes a defensive stance, daring the remaining foes to come at him.  

The Blight that Bho attacked is injured but not killed. 

The quarterstaff comes down upon the hobgoblins head before he can reset his shield from attacking Anton. A satisfyingly wet crunch rewards your ears as the he spurts a mouthful of blood and teeth at your feet and collapses into a heap. 

The blight to the south swipes at Anton with a thorny appendage, Attack: 10 Damage: 4

The blight to the north turns and attacks Bho, Attack: 6 Damage: 3.

1. Obsben 23
2. Cassius 21
3. Scar 20
4. Geth 15
5. Bho 11
6. Anton 5
7. Needles 3

(Time to trim the hedges, lol)

(Patient Defense worked!  Very rewarding!)

In case the other four miss the blights: 

1. Main Hand Attack: 18 Damage: 10
2. Off hand Attack: 26 Damage: 5

In case everything is dead, i start searching the corpses, starting with the boss Durnn (investigate 19)

sneak attack on a hit: 6

Obsben slips into the room again. After briefly bowing his head solemnly to the fallen hobgoblin chief, he whips out a dagger, and sends it flying for the southern most Blight. 

(Thrown)Dagger Attack: 20 Damage: 8.

Point of clarification, he's stepping as close to 20ft as he can to the blight. If unable to, then here's the disadvantage roll: 24 .

Cass aims down his sights at Blight2 and tries eliminate it in one go. 

Sharpshooter Attack: 4 Damage: 18

(OOC: in case of advantage:  22 )

OoC: Can we get a clarification as to whether the blights are affected by Faerie Fire? I'm not sure myself, and it seems some are rolling w/ advantage and others not

Scar will swing his greataxe sideways hoping to smash into the "chest?" of the small tree in front of him.

Greataxe: Attack: 24 Damage: 12

[OOC: disregard the lower rolls, as I was getting the error "rolls not ready for this section yet" for some reason, DnDBeyond does have a few hiccups every now and then.

Greataxe: Attack: 25 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

[OOC: According to DM, Faerie Fire affected all the bad guys/twigs]

OoC: Yeah, I wasn't sure since the blights hadn't revealed themselves yet when Geth cast it so if they were affected it was by accident.

(If any blights remain by his turn) Geth attempts to put the trees back in the ground where they belong. I mean what is this world coming to?

Attack: 26 Damage: 13

Yes they were lit up like little christmas trees. 

Obsbens dagger flips through the air, end over end. With a hollow thump, it lodges into the shambling tree. Scar does a wonderful Paul Bunyan impression with his axe, smashing the northernmost of the blights into kindling. The twang! of Cassius' crossbow adds a nice thrum to the tinning sound of steel on steel. The last remaining Blight, dodges to it left, sensing the incoming bolts. At least one of them. Geth's bolt finds it mark. the creature shatters, whatever strange magic animating it dissipated. 

Bho as you pilfer from the corpse conduct your investigation, you notice a gold ring on the hobgoblins finger. It bears the Hucrele family crest and is inscribed, "For Talgen, Hucreles of the Lily." Also on his person is a potion of healing, and 2 vials of antitoxin. There is a small chest stashed behind the throne, containing 291 gold and two pieces of onyx (about 30 gp each)

The shaft in the middle of the room descends 80' feet down to the floor below. The same purple glow is pervasive down there. Bio-luminescent fungus grows along the walls among thick ropy roots and vines and cover the walls. It is easily climbable.  

Breathing heavily now that the fight is over, Scar will drag one of the twig things with him, to show the town. Then before climbing down, Scar will look down to see if he sees a Hobgoblin body? If there is no body he will warn the group about the missing hobgoblin and then climb down warily looking for an attack. If he sees the body then he will just climb down.

"Perchance is there any magic in that ring?" Anton asks nobody in particular.

"These roots have good purchase.  I can climb down and take a look if you like."

Befor following Scar, Bhuraelea will colect his thrown dagger and Obsbens dagger, which he will return to its owner, before he has a quick look at the two dead hobgoblins: investigation 19

Passing the ring, the gems and the gold to Obsben and the potion of healing to Anton.

Geth surveys the carnage dispassionately, retrieving what salvageable crossbow bolts there are. "Thanks for the assists," he says drily. "There's a decent chance I couldn't have killed that Durnn fellow without your help."

He plops himself down on the fallen trunk of a formerly sentient tree and yawns.

"Why don't I give our haul and our way forward a little scan?" he says, as he begins a now familiar ritual (albeit not his familiar ritual)

On hearing Geth's words, Scar will shake his head to clear it from the cobwebs of battle and then climb back up and wait for Geth to finish his task.
