Dreams Into Journey

Gonna bonus action disengage, then move to L17. Taking a shot on the enemy next to Lia:

Shortbow+sneak attack: Attack: 19 Damage: 9

Jororic parries the attack that hit him to reduce damage by 7 and then swings his two hand axes against that same foe.

Attack 1: 15 Damage: 11

Attack 2: 9 Damage: 10

(Have we had a long rest yet?  Also I don't believe I reset my HP from the short rest we did in the temple, she would have used HD there to get back to full.)

Lia casts shielddeflecting the attack.  She then will strike with her dagger.

Attack: 15 Damage: 3 

We only did a short rest at the temple.

Valentia decides to raise her hand and cast Sacred Flame against the fishy humanoid, simply hoping it was the hardest to take down.

DC 14 Dex save or take 2 Radiant damage.

(Yeah, and only a few of you took the short rest)

Reaction

Lia quickly and successfully throws up a invisible field to deflect the spear.

Turns

Smallfry takes advantage of his small stature to slip away from the humanoid and give aid to Lia in the the form of an arrow into her assailant (9 piercing damage).

After taking blunting most the attack, but still feeling the scrape of shell shards, Jororic retaliates with two solid strikes (16 slashing damage).

Drawing her dagger, Lia thrusts into her fishy foe (5 piercing damage)

Dex save DC 14: 17

Lia invokes holy fire from Kelemvor. But despite its pain, her target is able to evade it.

End of round 1

Begin round 2

Initiative order:

 Map:

 Oswin can take his turn.

(Are the blue spots water, and do we have any idea how deep they are? Perception if needed: 13)

Oswin will circle around the next enemy to H13 SD following him to J15 to flank and try and eliminate that one.

Oswin: Attack: 27 Damage: 12

SD: Attack: 12 Damage: 10

(OOC: Yes, they are tide pools)

Oswin makes his way around the one side of the shambling, dripping creature as he looks down one of the tide pools. It is hard to judge exactly how deep they are, but it seems that the pools are at least 2 feet down from his current position and their depth go into darkness.

Reaching his intended destination, his machine moves to surround their target and strike at it opening up grievous wounds (12 piercing and 10 force damage).

Enemy turn

The two fishy foes attack their quarries again.

Spear vs Jororic Attack: 16 Damage: 7

Bite vs Lia Attack: 15 Damage: 4

 The spear finds a small space in Jororic's armor, but leaves a small nick in his skin (2 piercing damage), but the other creature only bites air.

The other, less-fortunate-looking humanoids attack. Two of them splitting their attention between two targets.

Attacks on Oswin

Humanoid #1 unarmed Attack: 22 Damage: 5

Humanoid #2 unarmed Attack: 11 Damage: 4

Humanoid #2 bite Attack: 14 Damage: 3

Attacks on Jororic:

Humanoid #1 Unarmed Attack: 24 Damage: 8

Humanoid #1 Bite Attack: 12 Damage: 3

Attack on SD:

Humanoid #2 unarmed Attack: 10 Damage: 5

Attacks on Valentia:

Humanoid #3 Unarmed Attack: 9 Damage: 6

Humanoid #3 Unarmed Attack: 19 Damage: 5

Humanoid #3 Bite Attack: 19 Damage: 4

Humanoid #3 Nat 1 save: 16

(Perhaps I should put these attacks in spoiler folders due to clutter? At least when it comes to so many creatures attacking around the same time.)

One creature swings wildly between Jororic and Oswin. While it's arms and teeth are unable to get aroond his armor (miss and miss) one swing catches Oswin by surprise, as he is distracted by his own target (6 bludgeoning damage).

The creature accosted by Oswin and his construct has similar results, with limbs and teeth hitting nothing and one lucky strike making hard contact with the automaton (4 bludgeoning damage).

The remaining one tries all it can to strike at Valentia. But, all of its attack hit only air or bounce off of her armor. One particular bite clamps down hard at nothing dazing it for a moment, from which it quickly recovers.

Smallfry, Jororic, Lia and Valentia can take their turns.

Oswin will raise his shield and energy extends out from the sides and blocks the attack against him.

shield

Lia draws out her second dagger and strikes with both...

Attack: 6 Damage: 6

Attack: 5 Damage: 2

Jororic repostes against the humanoid who missed him: Attack: 18 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll. 7 7 (damage plus superiority dice)

Then continues assaulting the humanoid to put it down:

Attack 1: 16 Damage: 9

Attack 2: Attack: 20 Damage: 6

Using an action surge to repeat, he will continue attacking the humanoid until it falls, and then shift to the other....thing.

Attack 3: Attack: 19 Damage: 7

(taking another attack action means I get to attack with both hands yes?) Attack 4: Attack: 22 Damage: 6
Ok, no second-hand attack for the action surge. Too bad. :-(

My edit was to add in the damage and superiority rolls because they didn't show up originally (as you can see above).

Smallfry is going to take a shot at the creature next to Oswin, hoping to finish it off.

Shortbow+sneak attack: Attack: 8 Damage: 6

Valentia casts Sacred Flame again, this time against the creature right in her face.

DC 14 Dex save or take 6 Radiant damage.

Reactions

Seeing the attacks coming his way, Oswin throws up a magical force field to stop the strikes in their tracks (no hit)

Taking advantage of the monster's missed swing, Jororic lands a solid blow to its arm, almost severing it (10 slashing damage).

Actual turns

Smallfry tries to take a shot at the creature between Oswin and his steel defender, but in an effort to avoid hitting the construct, the arrow goes more wide than expected.

Jororic continues his assault to the humanoid who attacked him, but over-swings his first strike (miss).

Jororic nat 1 save: 13

But he is able to keep his footing and is able to land an upwards strike with his other axe, splitting the front of it wide ope, explosing it's brain as it falls backward (8 slashing damage and defeated).

Continuing his momentum, he bring his other axe down on the fishfolk right next to him (8 slashing damage).

Lia takes out her other dagger and tries to bring down her assailant. Both swings are unable to make contact with the creature, who saw some obvious telegraphs. As a result, she tries to over-correct with her off hand (miss and miss).

Lia nat 1 save: 13

But she is able to regain her balance.

Calling on the power of Kelemvor again, Valentia tries to to call holy fire to strike her foe.

Humanoid Dex save [DC14]: 19

Despite its apparent instability on land, it is surprisingly slippery (miss).

End round 2

Begin round 3

Initiative order:

Map:

 Oswin can take his turn.

SD will strike at the creature they've flanked, if it is still up, Oswin will attack it as well, if not, he'll throw his spear at the last humanoid.

SD: Attack: 20 Damage: 4

Oswin: Attack: 22 Damage: 10

(Double nat 1's, yay...)

(d20s be fickle...)

Oswin and his creation strike the creature at the same time. This metal companion launches a quick concussive blast, hitting the monster (4 force damage), but the blast throws off Oswin's thrust massively.

Oswin nat 1 save: 19

He catches himself before going too far.

Enemy turn

The fish monster keep up their assault.

Spear vs. Jororic: Attack: 10 Damage: 7

Spear vs. Lia: Attack: 6 Damage: 3

A spear finds a gap in Jororics armor and bites into his skin (5 piercing damage), while Lia is able to evade the thrust (miss).

The surrounded monster strikes at Oswin and his defender once more.

Unarmed Vs Oswin Attack: 20 Damage: 4

Unarmed vs SD Attack: 5 Damage: 6

Bite vs Oswin: Attack: 22 Damage: 6

One swipe goes wide (miss), the second one glances the construct (3 bludgeoning damage), and it clamps down into Oswin's arm with its needle-like teeth (5 piercing damage).

The other suffering creature shambles next to Lia (now at M-11), and attacks her and Valentia.

Unarmed vs Valentia Attack: 19 Damage: 4

Unarmed vs Lia Attack: 13 Damage: 6

Bite vs Lia Attack: 17 Damage: 6

While one arm bounces off of Valentia's armor (miss), Lia is struck with a backhand (4 bludgeoning damage). It tries to follow by biting the sorceress, but she was able to see it coming and evade (miss).

 Smallfry, Jororic,Lia and Valentia can take their turns.

Jororic sees an attack coming and works to parry the spear.

Reaction: Parry to reduce damage by: 9

Having done what he can, he swings both axes at the fish-monster, hoping to eliminate the threat.

Attack 1: 11 Damage: 7

Attack 2: 22 Damage: 8

If the beast drops, Jororic will move to assist the ladies, hoping to be able to reach both the assailants.

Another shot at L10 fishy:

Shortbow+sneak attack: Attack: 18 Damage: 11
