Chronero - Single Player DnD

As Tomoe and Kate start to get washed back,  she tries to get the rope to Lucia as they pass by.

I'm assuming an athletics roll is needed 7

((For throwing the rope, make an improvised ranged weapon attack instead.))

Improvised so just d20 plus dex mod right?

21

"CHIEF!" Lucia says as she watches Tomoe and Kate being washed away with the river. Tomoe throws the rope to Lucia who catches it with no problem. She quickly tosses it around a tree to use as leverage before pulling. It takes a while but Kate and Tomoe are eventually pulled back on to shore, now soaking wet. Lucia hugs Tomoe tightly, clearly worried that she had lost her for second.

Tomoe returns the hug. I believe I now owe you my life. Thank you. Tomoe looks to the group. it looks like we must do this the hard way.

Remind me what my options are? Obviously trying to get in with as little resistance or making our presence known as possible. 

Lucia suggests, "Well we could try to use the trees and the plants as cover to try and approach the walls. Not exactly sure how we can get past the gates though without being  seen. Maybe we can scale the walls instead. Or we could have someone watch the cultists for a day and memorize their watch rotation so we can sneak in without being detected." (The latter has a chance of the person watching getting spotted and captured)

( did we notice them wearing uniforms that we might steal from a patrol and attempt a disguise? Or combine that with the watching strategy? )

((Yeah they were all wearing Cultist cloaks and cultist robes over their normal clothes.

Tomoe considered her options. Do you think we might obtain some of their robes and pose as initiates? 

Lucia thinks for a bit and says, "It can work... we've heard of inquisitors using that tactic. Though we would need to be careful with which group we target. If we can get the robes without alerting the whole base, it could work."

(Basically everyone who would participate in this action will do a stealth check. Then at the end of every turn after the first, a perception check will be made to see if the rest of the base is alerted or not. So... you probably want to make sure you: Take out the cultists quickly and don't bring so many people that it's more likely at least one of you will fail the Stealth Check)

If it's down to stealth that may leave Kate out. Her and Mystery both have a +3 to Tomoe's +4 and Lucia's +6 so I'll decide that later.

I'd like to see if we can't set up an ambush perhaps, on a patroing group maybe? 

((Yeah. Still going to need stealth checks if you want to set up an ambush or wait for a patrolling group.))

Everyone who's going to participate in the ambush, roll stealth.

Ok. Stealth rolls incoming. Any chance I could use someone as bait to possibly get advantage?

 Battle Music (Same as general Dungeon Music):

After a bit of scouting Lucia was able to determine the route the cultist scouting parties take. Being more focused on Defense rather than hunting or raiding, the scouting party makes through patrols following a predetermined route. The girls hide in the foliage, waiting for the scouting party to arrive. The party that passes is a squad of 4 consists of 3 Zombie Mercenaries led by a Zombie Headhunter. To raise such powerful undead required the power of a lich or a cleric of Revan. Seeing as how these cloaked zombies are clad in light armor and wearing tabbards with the symbol of Revan on it, it's obvious they were raised by one of the dark god's clerics. As they pass the group's ambush point, the Head Hunter raises his hand to order a stop. He points exactly to where Tomoe was hiding, seeing her silvery hair and highborn skin through the foliage. The others raise their crossbows at her. Lucia realizes they can see her girlfriend so she jumps out of her own hiding place saying, "Not today!"

The detective delivers a devastating kick to the Merc3's head spraying black ooze all over her shoe. She then follows up with a jab to the gut and an uppercut.This give Tomoe the chance to React.

Tomoe's turn. (You may also take Kate's turn if you want)

Tomoe, quickly catching to herself giving them away says sarcasticly. Curse my unbelievable good looks. If only I were not so wounderfly sexy.  she follows Lucia's path and, drawing her sword and sheild she strikes at the target..

(if she has to say a command word for her sword then she does. I forgot if it's needed or not. And Dunblane does an extra 1d8 against undead and it's radiant damage not slashing)

Attack 1 Attack: 24 Damage: 16

Attack 2 Attack: 26 Damage: 13

Dndbeyond if giving me trouble accessing Kate's stats on Tomoes page. I'm sure she would probobly roll her eyes at Tomoe before finishing off Zombie3 and slicing into which ever is next closest.

Umm... Which Zombie is Tomoe targeting?
