Allansia Wildlands Campaign.

ooc considerations:

@everyone: Damian, you have been great so far, I guess we really needed a map just to understand the situation because it can be really valuable (even if your description is nice).

@Herman, about the mithril maul: I must know if Herman would prefer that maul instead of the +1 halberd he know possesses, so questions:

- a +1 weapon is to considered magical, right? I haven't got that weapon the first time we fought the demon...

- are mithril weapons considered as magical?

- I read here (https://olddungeonmaster.com/2017/12/12/dd-5e-non-standard-weapon-armor-materials/#:~:text=Mithral weapons,it gains the Finesse property.) that a heavy mithril weapon has to be considered as versatile: does that mean that my great weapon feat will not work with that maul?

( I'll sketch a map up during my lunch break....it'll be rough but functional.

+1 is magical, yes.   Not sure on the exact rules...they seem a little sparse around Mithril, but I class it as magical in terms of bypassing resistance to non-magical weapons.

You can still use the Maul as a Heavy weapon.  But note none of you have time now to attune to anything magical that has just be found so they will be acting as mundane but "magical"  )

Garet had been spoiling for this fight ever since their last encounter with the Demon and as such has been on a state of alert from when they had entered the chamber.

Zeltheris pulls out the yellow gem they'd found earlier and summons up the elemental within, sending it after the demon.

Elemental Gem (Yellow Diamond) Earth Elemental

Elemental's initiative: 10

The elemental slams its giant fists into the creature.

Attack: 10 Damage: 12
Attack: 21 Damage: 12

( roof is about 40' up, but there's 30' of demon hanging out of it.)

Ooc @Banzo: remember : even if you get to the magic weapon, as Damian said, you must attune to it, so bear it in mind

Garet gives an answering roar to the demons challenge rips both his weapons from their sheaths and closes as much as distance as he can between them anxious to strike a telling blow.

OOC Move move towards creature can't tell the distance if I'm in range then I'll attack

So if in range

IC

Garet reaching deep within his warrior being, dropped his hip, feinting weakness but actually coiling his core before unleashing a furious spinning attack, his blade glittering with all the pent up fury of their previous encounter. Not waiting to see if the blade struck true he adeptly reversed the strike but the complexity of the reverse meant that it was slightly less deadly than the first, flying through slightly slower and less accurate.

OOC

Zeltheris uses the gem they found to summon a huge humanoid form of earth and stone, even as the elemental forms from the stone floor Garet yells and in a blur of motion digs his blade into the Demons crystalline flesh.

Banzo summons webs across the ceiling laying across the immense crystalline form, trapping it....as the companions have seen before the Demon should be able to simply dissolve back into the rock and avoid the webbing but for some reason ( though some may have theories based on previous checks) the sight of the elemental has enraged it beyond reason and it simply thrashes against the webbing struggling to reach the elemental in a destructive frenzy.

In response the elemental clobbers it with a stony fist.....

( Round 1 actions for the rest of you and Round 2 actions for those that have already acted)

Herman sees that his companions are behaving very well, so he doesn't want to stay back.

He sprints forward, ready to use his new magic weapon, also because the demon is actually distracted

Ooc:

BONUS ACTION: ENTER RAGE 1/10 TURNS

MOVE ACTION: going in melee with the demon

Great weapon feat Attack: 18 Damage: 22

Actually 21 damages because of +2 in rage. 

Ooc: apart from the web remember that Herman has the wolf spirit, i.e.:

While you’re raging, your allies have advantage on melee attack rolls against any hostile creature within 5 feet of you.

Garet relieved and emboldened by the actions of his comrades tries to press the advantage further but his initial exertions seemed to weakened him a little. Flicking his rapier out again and following through with his dagger he hopes to press home their advantage.

OOC

Action: Attack Rapier to hit 14 damage if required 11

Bonus: Two weapon fighting Dagger to hit 14 damage if required 5

Zeltheris has his elemental smash at the creature again as he calls to the group, "I'm going to try something, try not to be right underneath it." 

And he'll hold a moment (until the start of it's turn) and cast shatter centered on where it's form meets the rock of the ceiling.

Elemental:
Attack: 15 Damage: 16
Attack: 14 Damage: 19

Shatter: 13 thunder damage, DC 14 con save for half. (Should be at disadvantage because its made of stone, should also damage the ceiling and maybe drop it to the ground?)

( Apologies to KappytheLimey)

Shalana sprinted across the open ground silently and launched themselves into the air as the kicked off the wall their fists and feet leading the way.

Round 1:

Attack: 15 Damage: 6

BA Attack: 11 Damage: 4

Round 2:

Attack: 20 Damage: 6

BA Attack: 27 Damage: 9

( Apologies to DragonDenn ( Hope things are on the mend.)

With the demon too far above to reach with his construct he stood atop it and struck at the fiend with his new mattock.

Round 1:

Attack: 18 Damage: 4

Round 2: 

 19 Damage: 9

Con Save: 18

Strength Save: 25

Initiative:

Zeltheris- 24

Garet- 22

Banzo- 19

Pelucidus - 13

Shalana- 12

Herman-3

Brocc- 2

Shalana leaps and strikes at the fiend delivering a glancing blow that troubles it little, Herman brings down his halberd with a mighty blow but it skates across the crystal-flesh as does Broccs blow.

The elemental smashes into the false-elemental fiend over and over, staggering it. As Garet stabs in with his rapier and dagger...though to little effect this time as Banzo sends darts of energy at the demon.

Pelucidis the Primal Rock Demon roars and Zeltheris shatters the ceiling above, though the spell does not have the effect he expected against the Demon it certainly has an effect on the stone ceiling.

The ceiling around the demon shatters and crumbles and Pelucidis tumbles to the ground, sinking immediately partially within the floor, the web is still draped about it momentarily before it rips free and rounds on the elemental, ignoring everyone else in the room.  There is a sudden orange glow from above where the ceiling is destroyed and magma begins pouring down from the roof from the ruptured lava tube.

Pelucidis roars in anger as it is struck by the magma, obviously pained though not terribly so as magma begins to flow across the floor and spatter from the roof.

(  Everyone make a DC 10 Dex Save or take 10 fire damage.   If you fail you must spend an action to put the flames out/scrape off the magma or take 6/round from now on.

Everyone can observe that Pelucidis seems Resistant to Fire and is not actually composed of stone but simply mocks the appearance of such. It also seems to want to destroy the elemental more than anything else.)

Shalana Dex Save:16

Brocc Dex Save: 19
