It seems to be a wyvern, though the ones he's familiar with are generally more greenish in hue. Wyverns generally open their attacks on prey by breathing fire at their nearest opponent, though they cannot keep up a continuous stream of it for more than a few seconds.Usually, a Wyvern will land to attack rather than stay in the air. ( As can be noted Fighting Fantasy Wyverns like many FF creatures are different to their D&D counterparts).
"Guys... I've seen these before... A Wyvern I reckon... although this one looks different than the ones I've seen. We need to get to cover now."
Tom looks around as fast as he can to see if there are any possible spots which could provide cover. He's also interested in Hatch's inquiry about if we can make it to the tree in time before this thing gets any closer and/or attacks us.
OOC: You have one turn before its close enough to do....something...the tree looks reachable in that time.
Rufus casts Mage Armor and heads to the tree for some minimal cover.
Hatch has infernal resistance, but would rather not have to rely on it to protect him from fire. But he wasn't exactly the fastest guy in this party to attempt the whole dodge thing so...he waited till the beast was in firing range and threw a handaxe at it.
Attack 20
Damage 6
The wyvern landed and croaked at the group, it instinctively turned towards the running gnome....but its attention was focused by the axe thudding into its scales.
It swung towards Hatch with a snarl and breathed a stream of green flame towards him...but Hatch managed to duck aside.
Connar charged in, slashing at its flanks with his shortswords.
Dex saving throw: 14
(Brocc did dodge as his action, so who is left that you are waiting on?)
OOC: Next round actions and Initiative.
Shoot sorry everyone if I missed that pre-action opportunity.
Tom's going to let loose an arrow at the landed wyvren, aiming directly for its torso, aiming as deep as he can. "Jesus, watch that green fire!"
Attack: 26 Damage: 5
Initiative: 6
Tom would've also sprinted to the tree for some type of cover before firing that arrow. If he had time!
Rufus keeps moving around the perimeter of the hill towards the crevice. He slashes his hand through the air towards the Wyvern. His hair and clothing is briefly buffeted by winds as he harnesses the power of the North Wind and lashes out at the Wyvern covering it's face in frost.
Rufus casts Frostbite for 5 of cold damage and disadvantage on target's next attack. Save is CON 13 to avoid both damage and effect.
Brocc initiative: 17
"Guys... You know we attacked first, who is to say this thing was even hostile to us until then..." He grumbles as the others just dig straight into attacking the creature. Not seeing any other real option now, Brocc moves in to strike with his spear.
Attack: 23 Damage: 8
Now taking his battleaxe out and wielding it with both hands Hatch charges and attacks!
Initiative 1
Attack 19
Damage 9
Sorry I missed initiative for Rufus.
Initiative: 15
Taking heavy blows from axes, arrows and ice the wyvern let out a plaintive croak and hopped away from the companions attempting to take flight once more.....
Hatch would rush behind it and try to damage a wing before it can take off.
Attack 16
Damage 3
Thom yells over to Brocc: "In my experiences, these beasts have always been hostile! Let's bag us a Wyvren BOYS!"
A glint of immature-ness from the elf comes out with those comments that you might not have noticed before.
He fires another arrow at the seemingly fleeing Wyvren, this time at it's neck.
Attack: 18 Damage: 10
Rufus directs the biting wind to once again strike the wyvern covering it in frost.
Rufus casts Frostbite for 2 of cold damage and disadvantage on target's next attack. Save is CON 13 to avoid both damage and effect.
"If it wants to flee I say let it go." Brocc says with a shake of his head. He takes the dodge action and moves away from the beast.
Though battered and frosted again the beast manages to get aloft and takes off west into the sky seemingly wanting nothing to do with the well armed group.
From near the tree Tom sees a slight vertical indent in the rock below it......looks difficult to get to from here...
