Thrax Perception: 9

For Thrax:

It takes another two minutes for the procession of raiders to disappear around the opposite side of the cathedral. The forms at the back door still struggle to catch it aflame, though the thickening smoke indicates they will eventually meet with success. Yevele leads the charge into the smoke.

Initiative:

Round 1 Order:
Players <=====
Raiders

Placement:
Yevele is 20 feet away from the raiders, lightly obscured by the smoke.
The rest of the party is 50 feet away from the raiders.

Health:
Rogram is lightly wounded.

Yevele will move the final 20 feet to the closer raider, attacking with her quarterstaff Attack: 17 Damage: 7 followed by a kick: Attack: 14 Damage: 7

Seeing Yevele run in Smoke will follow leaping over the hedge Lets go. he says in a soft voice. Looking to inspire Rogram he adds Lets show them they came to the wrong place. 

He will start to pick up speed and while running he will take out a dagger from his belt and twirl it in his hands letting the hilt of the dagger move through his fingers to point the blade end upward. 

Trying not to make to much sound to get a surprise attack as he heads into the obscured area he will be sure to track Yevele's movement to not throw any daggers in her direction. 

As he tries to find the right moment he makes a final leap and throws his dagger swinging his right arm trying to put some momentum into the daggers speed at it flies away from him towards one of the raiders in the first part of the smoke. 

Movement: 30ft going towards the raiders
Action: Throwing dagger at a raider thats not next to Yevele : Attack: 13 Damage: 8
Bonus action: Bardic Inspiration on Rogram.(1d6)

Rogram smiles at Smoke, then turns to look at Thrax. "Come, my scaly friend." He does a complicated flourish with his sword, then pushes through the brush to catch up with Yevele.

Movement: 25 feet

Action: 25 more feet

Bonus: Bardic inspiration to Thrax (1d6)

Thrax nods and follows Rogram over the breach and charges towards the raiders. He moves thirty feet and halts in place and calls to his God and a sacred flame comes down onto the same opponent who was targeted by Smoke’s dagger. 

OOC: Botting Thia for this round with vicious mockery.

DM Screen:

Raider DEX Save: 15 Damage: 2
Kobold WIS Save: 14 Damage: 1

The first confused grunt comes from Yevele's target. The monk sweeps him with the staff, then kicks upward, smashing his skull in with a well-placed knee. The body falls next to a woman in the smoke that howls in pain from the dagger that has landed in her thigh, though she is clearly unaware that Smoke is its thrower, or that Thrax has just called down radiant light on her position. Her scream of pain, and Thia's shout that seems to have an effect on one of the smaller forms - which can now be clearly seen as kobolds - alert the others within the smoke to your presence. Rogram soon joins the fray, charging into the thickest part of the smoke.

OOC: Your stealthy approach and quick charge has taken the raiders by surprise!

Rogram and Thrax currently have 1d6 bardic inspiration that can be applied to a single ability check, attack roll, or saving throw within the next minute.

Round 2 Order:

Thia is 50 feet away from the raiders.
The rest of the party is within movement range of the raiders, all lightly obscured by the smoke.

Health:
One raider is wounded.
One kobold is lightly wounded.

Rogram is lightly wounded.

Yevele will attack the wounded woman with a quarter staff Attack: 8 Damage: 4 followed by a kick. If the woman is killed by the first attack, the monk will move onto the next foe for the kick, if she is still alive, the kick will be directed at her: Attack: 17 Damage: 4

Thia continues to chant from the background and some distance away.   Whilst hurling insults into the fray she also monitors the progress of the marching column of raiders, waiting to see if they notice the fight and start heading our way.

Action:   Cast Vicious Mockery at one of the humans.

With more allies running in Smoke has his hand on another dagger but decides not to use it, worried his targets are not clear in the fog. Instead he will move forward. 

As he moves he takes out his rapier and looks for a target on the edge of the group. Making sure he does not find himself in the middle of the raiders he tries to pick off stragglers at the edge of the fight. 
When finding one he will thrust the rapier forward hoping to catch the target off guard. 

Movement: Forward to the edge of battle (probably using full 30ft)
Action: Rapier Attack: 27 Damage: 13

Rogram continues moving forward, striking at the first foe he sees still standing in the smoke.

Two-hand longsword attack: 15; damage: 7 slashing damage

Dagger vs. Yevele (Advantage-Pack Tactics): 24 Damage: 4
Dagger vs. Rogram (Advantage-Pack Tactics): 21
Sling vs. Thrax: 22 Damage: 6

Yevele swings and misses with her staff, spinning with a kick that does anything but, cracking the jaw of the wounded woman and killing her. Another raider fills her place, bearing down on the monk and pressing her into a kobold's dagger that grazes her leg. Rogram is also pressed, parrying a scimitar with the help of a distraction from Thia, and cutting a diagonal line through his attacker's armor before kicking away the form of the kobold striking out at him. From the kobold standing in the doorway, Thrax takes a stone to the chin, barely noticing it as he calls down more divine flame. At the edge of the area, Smoke thrusts his rapier through the head of a kobold from behind, catching it unawares.

Round 3 Order:
Players <=====
Raiders

Rogram continues swinging his sword at the remaining attackers, not attempting to take any prisoners, while growling something in Dwarvish that includes one of the language's informal synonyms for "father".

Two-hand longsword attack vs. (in this order) nearby kobold or human: 13; damage: 7 slashing damage

Inspiration roll to make sure that attack hits: 3

Thia will cast Vicious Mockery at the enemy facing Yevele assuming she didn’t kill it.  If she did she’ll pick the most dangerous looking enemy. 

(Sorry, posting from phone)

For a second Smoke is a bit shocked he killed a kobold with his rapier, but it quickly turns to pride. As he puffs his chest and moves the closest foe. 

Smoke will attempt the same strategy to stay on the edge of the battle to get a clear view of the enemies and to only face one at a time. 

He make small circles with the tip of the rapier waiting for the right moment to strike and cant help vocalize his attack Ha..take that. 

If possible Smoke would try and get an idea of the fire, is their still a high chance of the building catching on fire or does it look delayed now that the raiders are fighting. 

Movement: Moving to another enemy at the edge of the fight. 
Action: Rapier Attack: 14 Damage: 8

Thrax roars and charges into the fray, and squared up with the biggest raider. He starts to lunge with his spear, but pulls back and bites his opponent with Hungry Jaws. 

(bonus action) Bite Attack: 14 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

After the bite he will spit on the ground and call down another ray of holy fire upon the raider sacred flame

Raider WIS Save: 8 Damage: 2
Thrax Bite Damage: 5

A loud crack indicates Yevele has struck true against her opponent, and as the raider falls, so too does his companion after losing the mental struggle against Thia. Rogram cleaves the head from the shoulder of a kobold, as Smoke thrusts his rapier through the heart of another. Thrax's kill is much less clean; the lizardfolk tears the throat out of the last remaining kobold with his own teeth. As he releases his kill to the ground, the back of the sanctuary falls silent. The path to the door is clear, aside from the smoke roiling from the thatch that has thus far refused to burn. The distant hooting and hollering of the circling mob separated by the body of the church replaces the ringing in your ears.

OOC: Each character has received 40 XP for defeating the raiders at the back of the sanctuary!

Yevele will head over to the thatch and stamp on it in an effort to put the fire out. After the fire is out, she will turn and whisper to her companions "Can anyone pick this lock?" Turning to Rogram she asks "Is there any other way we can get into the church or get the attention of those inside?" If someone steps up to try and pick the lock, Yevele will head over to the corner of the building to wait in case the circling mob returns before they can get everyone out of the building, standing there ready to attack if someone comes around the corner.

Thia will move up to the group.  Whichever corner of the building Yevele has gone to, Thia will go to the other one on this side, so that the two of them are watching both sides of the temple, in case the raiders come on both or either side.  She will peek carefully around the corner, trying to remain hidden whilst being on guard.

Thrax will examine the door to see if it would be difficult to break in, and quietly calls outs to anyone inside “Anyone in there!” He hisses “We are not with those savages, here to help!”
