Putting away her crossbow, Choir runs to Polly and casts Cure Wounds at second level for 14

Adray took a step forward into the disarray but had heard the ordeal to attack Polly.  Focusing his rage on her, Adray rushed forward to Thalamara.  He ignored the others there and focused on her.  Rushing head long, he ripped the mask from his face, leaped into the air and swung down with a shortsword, landed and then threw a left hook at her face.

Move: move up to Thalamara

Action: shortsword Attack: 19 Damage: 6

Bonus action unarmed strike Attack: 8 Damage: 6

((Meaning two Opportunity Attacks, right? And where would Adray end his run?))

The cultists blow would barely scratch Brutus' armour. Fran was even impressed herself. She'd give herself a pat on the back before launching another acid bubble to a pair of cultists. This time she'll command Brutus to follow Adray and attack Thalamara, taking position behind her.

Attack: Acid Splash DC Dex 13 or take 5

Bonus action: Steel defender Force-Empowered Rend Melee Weapon Attack: 12 Damage: 8 force damage.

Right on the two AoO and he would end just south of TV

Quote from BlueBayou >>

 

And now cultists collected themselves and were ready to attack. Following the order from THalamra, CM1 ignored Reya, muttered something and unleashed his fury on Polly: Attack: 18 Damage: 8

 

 

((Have to write it somewhere, because I keep forgetting. No extra 8 damage, but still need you Wis save roll (DC 11) ))

ooc: oh i misses that! :D 

18

CM1 Dex save: 6

scratches on Adray: Attack: 16 Damage: 5

Attack: 9 Damage: 6

Ignoring laughable attempts of the cultists to stop him, Adray run straight to Thalamra and attacked her. The woman was big and easy target, still, she managed to avoid one attack (the sword left a cut, though).

Meanwhile Reya did her best to protect Polly from the near by cultist:

Attack: 17 Damage: 13

Attack: 12 Damage: 8

Attack: 9 Damage: 9

Brutus, sent by Fran, imitating Adray's run, joined the assault on the Lady of the House, successfully biting her leg. 

scratches on Brutus: Attack: 23 Damage: 6

                                      Attack: 18 Damage: 3

Polly, been unharmed and unmoved by all the commotion, simply fired another fire arrow at Thalamra.

CM1 proved to be slippery like an eel and continue to avoid most devastating attacks from Reya. He probably realized his group was severely outnumbered, yet, was trying his best to carry  his mistress orders: Attack: 18 Damage: 10

CM2 decided not to repeat mistake of his fallen believer but instead help the Duke. He run to Adray trying repeat the trick of CM1:

Attack: 21 Damage: 13

Ordrag's turn.

Not wanting to leave Adray with only Brutus for protection from the formidable Duke, Ordrag charges down the corridor after them, but seeing another cultist going to support the Duke, Ordrag swipes at the cultist's back.

Attack v CM2: Warhammer: Attack: 16 Damage: 4
Bonus v CM2: Scimitar: Attack: 11 Damage: 6

Ah, what a waste of two criticals.

Where did he stop? Ordrag? (cultist is not dead yet)

Obligatory scratch from CM1 to Ordrag: Attack: 17 Damage: 4

Nibs did not miss once, but CM2 turned out to be sturdier than he looked, he did not fall down. He screamed - probably not that used to the fight and that was a good enough indication for the Duke that events do not develop in her favour. She disengaged and run away, though this time you could clearly see where she was going - the vault. You could hear the door open and close but there still were two cultists you had to deal with before chasing the main villain.

Choir will whack CM2 with her mace: Attack: 8 Damage: 5

“Damn it! She got away from us again, but she isn’t going anywhere soon. That is the vault.. let us focus on the immediate threat first, don’t let anyone call for backup!” She orders before throwing another fire bolt on CM1.   

Attack: 13 Damage: 7

Reya doubled her efforts trying to bring CM1 down:

Attack: 14 Damage: 13

Attack: 6 Damage: 8

Attack: 6 Damage: 4

And missed again! Surprisingly, so did Polly, or, better say, Polly's spell hit, just with no effect. CM2 proved to be hammer-resistant as well.

With the two cultists not being side by side, Fran decides to pull out some daggers to whip instead.

Dagger 1: 18 Damage: 5
Dagger 2: 9 Damage: 5

Now, that worked! The cultist was still up, but obviously not for long.

Does Brutus do anything?

Adray watched he disappear into the vault and thought it was a dead end and his thoughts were confirmed by the team.  Taking a moment he then goes to attack CM2.  Nothing fancy, the night was wearing on do he just kicked at the back of the man's knees and tried to run him through.

Shortsword Attack: 22 Damage: 10

Unarmed  Attack: 7 Damage: 6

 I would assume Brutus tried to bite the pesky cultist: Attack: 12 Damage: 10

Cultist tried to do his best to fight back, but silent yet deadly attack of the Steel Defender proved to be too much - CM2 was dead.  Surrounded and practically dead CM1 made his last desperate attempt to harm little mage - Attack: 22 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.  and even hit (!) only to face the wroth of now full group.

Ordrag moved to the space just east of CM2, so still in melee range of CM1 and therefore presumably not at risk of opportunity attack.
