MistBusters - A Curse of Strahd PbP

George! You up!

George have nice new pointy stick.  Would be shame no use.  25 and 23 to hit; 13 and 11 damage. 

Both hit as George spins with the skill of an ancient warrior chieftain into the gut of the slightly crispy Berserker4. Berserker6 will attempt to break free of the vines, Str: 8. However, these vines are made George Tough(tm) and aren’t letting go so easily.

Initiative:

Druid1/Berserker1/Berserker2: 21, Druid2: 19, Berserker3: 18, Berserker4: 17, Berserker5: 16, STRAHD/Davmorn/Adanmar: 15

Druid3: 14, Bry: 12, Druid4: 11, Druid5/Elwarith: 10, Druid6/Grim: 9, George: 4, Berserker6: 3

 Druid1 chants. Strahd snaps his fingers as Berserkers 1 and 2 prepare to end Adanmar, “I do not care about his death, restrain the monk!” Therefore, Berserker 1 runs over and will try to grapple Grim, Athletics: 8 vs Acrobatics: 25. Unbelievably, the Berserker catches Grim off guard and Grapples him. Berserker2 will attempt to force him to his knees, Athletics: 11 vs Acrobatics: 24, and does so with a brutal kick to the back of the knee. Strahd is delighted, well for Strahd anyway. Berserkers 4 and 5 try to break free, (8 and 7), one does, the other does not. Druid2 will defend the statue. Strahd looks down a Grim in wicked satisfaction. He will tear off the vines from his waist, (12), and does so. Davmorn coughs, (Death Save: 5). Legendary Action: Strahd drives a knee into Grim’s nose, Attack: 18 Damage: 7 bludgeoning damage + 14 necrotic damage. Adanmar coughs, he already rolled his saves. Legendary Action: Strahd punches Grim across the jaw, Attack: 22 Damage: 5 bludgeoning damage + 21 necrotic damage. “I cannot kill you, but I will enjoy every second of watching your pride shatter into a thousand pieces!”

Bry is up next. Grim is getting the darkstone beat out of him. Adanmar is unconscious. Davmorn is unconscious.

OOC: If I can hit multiple enemies with a Fireball that's what I'd like to do, I don't have a way to heal up anyone who is unconscious unfortunately. Dex save DC 15 or take 32 fire damage

There is a big juice target at the top of the hill with the wicker man and 2 druids, if you’d like that.

OOC: Yea, if nothing else I'll burn down their damn effigy

The druids watch as Bry points to the statue. Their gazes are confused, before it slowly dawns on them as the small bead of fire traces towards them. (Dex: 9 and 21). Druid1 is instantly incinerated by the explosion, while Druid2 takes cover and only receives half-damage. The statue is now lit aflame and heavily scorched. Legendary Action: Strahd backhands Grim, Attack: 28 Damage: 5 bludgeoning + 13 necrotic, and drops him to the floor.

Druid 4 returns to the top of the hill to defend the statue.

Elwarith, let’s see what you got!”

 I'm running out of ideas almost as fast as I'm running out of teammates....trying to free up Bry or George so they can focus on Strand (are we really at the final boss fight?) So I'll just shoot another arrow at the closest berserker 

[Longbow: 10 Damage: 12]

((If the berserkers still reckless attack, I think you should have adv on the roll, well, it depends on the berserker you target I guess))

((I’ll roll for him: 14))

Elwarith’s arrow hits Berserker5 in the neck. He winces and he looks to be on his last legs. Grim coughs up some blood, but makes his first save. Druid6 hurls a flame at Elwarith, Attack: 15 Damage: 3 Fire Damage, but can he pass the Sanctuary? 18. Nope. The flame scatters against the holy light.

George is up. Grim dying. Big Tree Man on Fire. Decisions must be made.

"George have pointy stick!"  18 and 27 to hit; 13 and 10 damage. 

George removes the head of Berserker5 in one smooth, crowbar-like motion. Ritualistic chanting fills his ears again as he gains 4 temp hp. Berserker6 will struggle to break free of the vines, 15. However, once again, vines made George Tough(tm).

Initiative:

Druid1/Berserker1/Berserker2: 21, Druid2: 19, Berserker3: 18, Berserker4: 17, Berserker5: 16, STRAHD/Davmorn/Adanmar: 15

Druid3: 14, Bry: 12, Druid4: 11, Druid5/Elwarith: 10, Druid6/Grim: 9, George: 4, Berserker6: 3

The wicker man is ablaze with Bry’s fireball, it takes 3 fire damage. It is slowly starting to crumble, it seems to be on its last legs. Berserker 1 and 2 turn their attention to Elwarith and will swing recklessly at him, Attack: 23 Damage: 16 slashing damage, Wis: 12, and Attack: 23 Damage: 7 slashing damage, Wis: 7. The first strike sinks into Elwarith’s shoulder, but the second is parried by the Sanctuary. Druid2 fires flame at Elwarith, Attack: 6 Damage: 8 fire damage, but first Wis Save: 19. The Druid resists the magic, but hits only marginally.  Berserker4, now free of his bonds, strikes at George, Attack: 8 Damage: 13 slashing damage. Strahd observes the devastation, and looks down upon Elwarith through a healing, gouged eye, “You know, you’re quite competent. Would you care to work for me?” Strahd’s eyes flash red.

Elwarith, Wisdom Saving Throw with Advantage due to your Elfyness.

(OOC - gonna need that advantage hehe)

[WIS Save: 10]
