Tyranny of Dragons (AL)

Delirious... waits.

Place' whips a stone that explodes with magical energy, and skips to hit several rats in the group in an explosion of rat. He kills 9 total in Lyria's rat swarm.

Lyria radiates light in pain form, taking out 1 rat in each swarm.

Hordkhen makes a long sweep downward and cuts a swath through 8 rats around himself.

Potato concentrates on dicing them up for food and chops up 4 of them around Lyria, but takes an attack of opportunity when stepping back to non-rat infested territory.
Attack: 22 Damage: 11 Miss

Kod turns his axe sideways because it'll hit more, and squashes 6 near Tar Hordkhen, and also takes an attack stepping back.
Attack: 12 Damage: 5 Rats suck.

With more than half their numbers swathed, squashed, beaned, chopped, and irradiated to death, the remaining rats scatter, preferring survival to whatever Potato and Delirious have planned. They skitter into burrows and are gone, combat is over.

A few yards beyond the rat's nest is the grate. It is locked, but the lock is rusty and corroded from exposure to the elements. Escobert may have had the key, but seemed too distracted and upset about your schwiftiness, and was unable to be calmed.

Who among you is strongest, a lock stands in the way and this looks like the job of a brute?

Kod barrels into the gate with his shoulder

Strength check  6

well I'm not known for strength but I guess I cant use insight to break a rusty lock.... unless it has dad issues ha well here it goes 

Str 1 +1d4 if Lyria helps 4 

The two of you clang against the door but it holds fast as dust and rusty bits fall to the ground.

Well I can't wait for someone more able to try.  Tries hilariously to force the lock 10

"Maybe it just wants to be talked to?" 

To the grate. "Hello there, Rusty the grate, people seem to have neglected over the years haven't they, well it appears that at this dire time the people need you again, so how about you pop on open for us?" "Mmhhmmm... Mhaa.. Yes."

"OK try it now!"

Lyria shoulders the door and the lock snaps. Delirious tries to calm the lock down afterward. You see the stream just outside the tunnel.

Secret DM workshop, do not look.

Seems Ilmater walks with us, shall we continue?

Tar Hordkhen scrapes viscera from his longsword off with is boot- "... alright- now to the East along the stream and then up over the fence?" , he almost whispers, and walks out toward the bank, crouches and scans the vicinity for activity.  Perception- 5 

Before Hodkhen can take two steps outside to look around, he is pelted with no less than 9 stones from the forest line across the stream, and rushed upon by 3 cultists, impeding his forward movement. It sounds like hail on his armor as two of the cultists clang against his shield and 4-5 stones harmlessly hit his armor. The rest of the stones hit his head and exposed areas for a total of 21 damage. (Check my math on the spoiler above) Hordkhen falls down from one particular headshot and is unconscious.

 An incorporeal Gorilla sprouts from the ground just south of Hordkhen's body close enough (30ft) to give everyone 7 temp HP and through the shape of the ape I jump to the left turning into a wolf provoking an opportunity attack as I make my way towards the center (want to be in front hopefully provoking 1 or none opportunity attacks and ending not withen 5ft of any enemy) letting out a mighty howl

The odd-looking tube up top is the tunnel exit, which will provide some cover from ranged attacks if you're inside of it.
The Stream is not deep enough to hinder movement
The opposite bank is steep and the brush is very dense, which will hinder movement.

Kod lets loose a column of lightning on the cultist in front of him and the two kobolds directly behind. DEX Save: 9 All three targets are fried and go lifeless.

One rock hits for 6 damage, the rest ping off her armor or miss entirely. (The 18 would have hit but you have partial cover for an AC bonus)

Potato scrambles out of the tunnel and lunges at the western cultist with a downward slash of the scimitar.

Delirious peaks out the pipe far enough to spot the Kobold in front at the bend in the stream surrounded by three others.
