(spending a ki point for Flurry)

”Quickly! This thing downed Flynt!”

Flynt, your body is completely covered in blood, yet you are still squirming around. Death save 1 = SUCCESS!

Shae, with great agility you leap up onto the table, landing as soft as a cat. The staff swing misses (barely), but you get your footing set on the table and deliver the spinning and knife kicks with deadly accuracy as your legs propel your shins directly into the sluglike beast's upper body in a tornado like fashion. You notice that the beast seems to absorb the strikes, although still hurt from the impact. (you learn that the monster is resistant to bludgeoning damage) 5 2 and 5 2 for a total of 4 damage.

Renny and Ignatia are up!

" Can I not simply inter a child in peace....", Ignatia grumbled as she moved down the corridor and saw Flynt on the ground....." Well, that won't do."

She knelt down beside Flynt ( D3) and attempted to staunch the bleeding with the maids outfit she had taken from upstairs.

" Renny, Shae has worms can you cook her up something."

Medicine Check: 10

Renny runs up to C4, gawking at the sight of Flynt just wreaked... and sticks out her hands toward the thing, casting burning hands.. the sheet of fire angling to not hit Flynt's body or Shae as best she can.

DEX Save 13 for half

10 (any 1 becomes a 2)

After she'll back up down the hall again with her remaining movement.

Ignatia, you stow Rose's bones for now, and head down to the battle. You use the maids outfits as makeshift bandages, and they barely do the trick... they sock up a lot of blood, but eventually the blood slows and Flynt becomes stable!

Flynt, you are now stable, meaning you no longer require any death saving throws. However, you are still unconscious, and remain at 0 hit points until someone heals you. If this does not happen, you will regain 1hp in 4 hour(s). Then you could also short rest, or long rest again with the party... but let's see what happens with this battle first. 

Renny, you also head down and position yourself at the perfect angle to shoot the sheet of fire at the monster 13

... and the sheet of fire sears across the slug like creature, and it lets out a high pitched squeal. 7 fire damage taken! You head back up the hallway as well after the fire attack and watch on.

The slug then starts to flail its tentacles at Shae who is on the table Attack: 8 Damage: 9

 she can't seem to dodge all of the tentacles, and two of them hit her. It then proceeds to try and bite her with its snapping turtle like mouth Attack: 5 Damage: 8

and SNAP!!! the mouth misses and Shae jumps away from it. She does take 7 damage from the slash from the tentacle blades though. 

Round 3:

Shae, Renny and Ignatia are up! (Flynt, you are unconscious, but alive and stable)

(Renny sorry your burning hands was for 8 damage!)

Ignatia stood up and over Flynt, straddling him in a defensive stance, " No peeking.", she grinned down at the dragonborn.

Her eyes began to glow red and the strange light leapt from her eyes to her hands, she pushed her hands out towards the creature sweat forming on her forehead as she let the heat escape and rush towards the dangerous abomination.

" Ugh....I hate doing that...."

OOC:

Burning Hands: Dex 13 Save. Dam: 16

(that 1 could make a difference heh.. oo nice Ignatia)

(hahaha!!)

Ignatia, as you stand over the bleeding but stable dragonborn, you begin to feel the rush as exactly what you've explained takes place. The thin blanket of fire also shoots from your hands, quite similar to Renny, (although with a very different build up), and smashes into the worm like creature, blasting it with waves of fire as the sheet starts to ripple and make waves as it connects with the worms body... 22

... and the thin waves of sheet-like fire continue to smash and cook the worm... it seems in the moment like the burning would never end... but it eventually does. The now blackened piece of meat falls to the ground, smoking quite badly and sizzling quite loudly, and parts of the skin is boiling. it's completely cooked. It's not the most pleasant thing you've seen... or smelled.

The GRICK takes all of that damage 16 and is completely fried. Dead. 

So... Flynt is unconscious on the ground, and if no one can heal him, you will need to wait at least 1 hr before he automatically gains 1hp. At that point, he will be conscious, and could heal himself, or there would be a few resting options you could do... or something else... I leave it up to you guys of course! 

Map remains the same, minus the cooked Grick. 

What would you like to do?

OOC: One hour? Short rest. Spell slot back. :)  Does anyone have any healing?  Well, Flynt does I guess.

Perfect! Short rest completed. Shae you could roll a hit die to recover hp, if you wish.

So now, Flynt has 1hp, alive and conscious, and access to his Lay on Hands pool.

You could all take another rest now as well.... however you might generate an encounter as there are clearly some baddies down here... another short or long rest at this point and where you are situated could have the potential to cause an encounter.

(the worm has now stopped bellowing smoke, and has slowed to a faint whisper of smoke and very quiet sizzles.)

" Any idea what those things taste like? I mean its already barbecued...."

She shook her hands, " Ugh....hellfire....nasty stuff...nastier for him I suppose."

" Once Flynt wakes I want to bury the kids in their tombs before we move on, nice enough place to spend eternity."

(Also Ignatia I noted your Dark One's Blessing for the 5 temp HP for finishing off the Grick. As long as you don't long rest....)

Flynt slowly wakes up and glances at the blood on the floor and the creature. "Well, that was unfortunate. Thank you, everyone."

He's going to use Lay on Hands to heal for 5 hp.

Hit Dice for Rest: 9 

Shae leans against the table and takes a breath, focusing her inner self as the others tend to Flynt. 

“Any idea what that thing was? I’ve never seen anything like it in my life... not even in theShadowfell.”
