Ned Wisdom Saving Throw: 19

Ned looks back towards the dwarf, shaking the fog out of his head, "Nice try there."

"Well I thought it was a good joke, Gulin!"

Reynnar takes a disengage action to slip by the awakened armor and move to just in front of the back door. He then takes a shot with his shortbow at the awakened armor.

Shortbow attack: 19 Damage: 9

Caspia dashes to catch up with Gulin and Ned. 

I want to end up next to Gulin inside that little room. 

Think you can close the distance and strike at Ned? Can try and knock him unconscious.

 Night, Godsday, Goodmonth 10th, 591 CY

Yeah turns out Tiffany could attack.

Reynnar's arrow sinks true into the middle of the animated armor, leaving a large scrap down the plate. Parts of the armor are now glinted.

Caspia rushes forward towards Ned, and attacks with her scimitar and shortsword drawn. Ned, having assumed a defensive position is ready for the attack.

Caspia Scimitar Attack: 10 Damage: 8

Caspia Shortsword Offhand Attack: 8 Damage: 2

Both blows sail wild. Angus uses his shortsword and fists to assault the animated armor.

Angus Shortsword Attack: 16 Damage: 7

Angus Monk Unarmed Strike Attack: 7 Damage: 6

The monk's blows weakly bounce off of the armor. Angus takes a moment to try to gather his inner Ki and assume a defensive position, but is unable to do so because he put all of his effort into the attack. The monk then shouts to the group, "What do you want me to do? Try to hold this armor here or take someone out?"

I was going to have Angus use Patient Defense, but forgot Unarmed Strike also uses the bonus action.

The animated armor swings down on Angus, attempting to crush him.

Animated Armor Attack 1: 19 Damage: 5

Animated Armor Attack 1: 14 Damage: 7

One of the blows crushes Angus back against the wall, jostling a few wine bottles of a nearby rack. The monk's situation is looking dire.

Ned similarly realizes his chances of escape are fleeting, assumes a retreating position and attempts to head towards the back door, blade drawn and ready to cut down anyone in his way.

Ned avoids Caspia's attack of opportunity because he took disengage as a cunning action.

Ned Shortsword Attack 1: Attack: 5 Damage: 14

Ned Shortsword Attack 2: Attack: 10 Damage: 13

Wow those dice.

Angus has recovered from the beating he received just in time to avoid Ned's shortsword. Ned is now looking visibly panicked and uses the remainder of his movement to throw open the door to the storeroom and run over next to the window.

"Do what you need to do, but don't get yourself killed! I'll see what I can do about Ned!"

Reynnar ducks outside, and hides ~20 feet north of the window to the pantry and readies an arrow to be shot at the fleeing Ned.

Stealth to hide: 24

"Ned, why don't you take a little nap?"

Cast: Sleep centered on Ned. 24 HP

Night, Godsday, Goodmonth 10th, 591 CY

As Reynnar goes out the door and prepares to intercept Ned's escape, Ned crumples to the floor asleep and unconscious, a result of the dwarf's magics.

Still waiting on Tiffany to take another turn before the bad guys go.

Caspia rushes into the room next to Angus and takes a shot at the armor that has come to life.

let's hope I roll better this time.

Short Sword: Attack: 19 Damage: 9

Scimitar: Attack: 24 Damage: 9

Ugh, previous post got slapped with a potentially manipulated so I am deleting and restarting the whole thing.

Night, Godsday, Goodmonth 10th, 591 CY

Caspia's blows cut deep into the animated armor, the armor is starting to look heavily damaged.

Caspia's damage was modified to only a total of 15. Offhand attacks don't get the attribute bonus.

Angus follows the triton's lead and also attacks the animated armor.

Angus Shortsword Attack: 12 Damage: 9

Angus Monk Unarmed Strike Attack: 9 Damage: 5

Angus, sensing that the battle could be ended here, uses two luck points to reroll his to hit dice.

Angus Shortsword Attack Roll 2: 6

Angus Monk Unarmed Strike Attack Roll 2: 23

Despite the monk's best efforts to focus his attacks and end the battle, his sword thrust and blows flail widely. The monk's eyes go wide as he realizes that he has once again left himself upon to the armor's attacks. The armor ambles forward for a strike.

Animated Armor Attack 1: 5 Damage: 7

Animated Armor Attack 2: 6 Damage: 3

 The second blow slams into into Angus, sending him onto the floor unconscious.

Hearing the cry from Angus, Gulin rushes to the other side of Caspia (diagonal from the armor, to the square just SE of Caspia's current location). He slings one of his handaxes at the animated armor, pulling another from his belt.

Throw Attack: 11 Damage: 9

He shouts in the direction of the back door, "Eh, Reynnar! I took care of Ned, need your help here!"

Reynnar slips back in the door and takes a shot.

Stealth to hide: 17

Attack with shortbow: 25 Damage: 6

The blow catches the animated armor by surprise. It crumbles to the ground for a moment before regaining its composure and preparing for yet another attack. The armor is shattered so badly you are surprised that it able to still function.

"I am tired of this magical armor. Let's finish this."

Caspia attacks again with her short sword or scimitar.

Short Sword: Attack: 12 Damage: 6

Scimitar: Attack: 15 Damage: 6

Night, Godsday, Goodmonth 10th, 591 CY

The swings from Caspia's swords sail wild scratching off the side of the animated armor, unable to find any purchase.

Angus Death Saving Throw: 14

Angus' eyes immediately blink back open. Angus lets loose a loud gasp.

The animated armor now turns its wrath towards the triton.

Animated Armor Attack 1: 24 Damage: 11

Animated Armor Attack 2: 24 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

The second blow hits Caspia, blood runs down her arm.

Gulin doesn't know how he got up there, but no matter. Hammertime!

Attack (Booming Blade): 10 Damage: 8

Booming Blade on Move: 1

And with Gulin's blow the armor falls silent to the ground. Ned continues to sleep a room over, while Angus brushes the blood off of his shirt. "Well that was interesting, everyone but me seemed to come out of that unscathed. What next? I think we have a few rooms still down here to be explored, and then there is Ned. Maybe we should take care of him before he wakes up."

You watch as the monk draws his shortsword and begins cleaning it. He has a strange look on his face.

As the armor collapses, Gulin quickly gathers up his dropped and thrown handaxes and points to the storeroom. "Reynnar, hope you're good with a rope lad. Lets tie up ol' Ned and have a word, shall we? Careful not to wake him!" He looks to Angus, a toothy grin between his mustache and beard. "Took a rough hit, lad. Glad you're still with us! Perhaps Caspia can patch you up a bit."

"Sounds good, how about you come with me, just in case he wakes up. Angus, Caspia, might be helpful to know that those other bottles over there are health potions."

Reynnar moves over to tie Ned up nice and tight, and uses some of his climbing pitons to suspend him from the ceiling.

"Alright, you know Ned better, I'll let you guys start the interrogation."

Night, Godsday, Goodmonth 10th, 591 CY

Caspia finds herself with Angus in a wine cellar. The windows in this room are reinforced with steel bars. The center of the room is filled with casks, while two wine racks are against the back wall. In the southwest corner of the room, lying battered on the floor is the remains of the animated armor. The room is very dreary, you can tell that the location of the windows protects most of the rooms contents from the rising and setting sun. The floor is cracked and marked with age, yet cool to the touch.

Angus motions to Caspia, "Reynnar pointed out these two health potions on the wine rack to me earlier. Haven't noticed anything else of note in this room other than the armor, but then again I didn't really case this room very well. I'm sure there are valuables in some of these other rooms too. Haven't stolen anything yet, but don't think I'm letting us leave here empty handed!"

Gulin and Reynnar move over into the room where Ned passed out. The room is filled with crates. A window along the eastern wall looks out onto a dark street with no traffic. The window itself is not reinforced. The room has a deep smell reminiscent of spices.

As Ned is tied and trussed up by Gulin and Reynnar, his eyes come awake, and begin to take in the situation. He looks over towards the dwarf and speaks with no trace of his usual stammer, "Since we have had a wonderful past few days together I will show you a bit of courtesy and tell you this once. You are messing with forces above your pay grade, let me go and things will be easier for you."
