((I didn't realise Rangers got a second attack lol, one for next round))

Silenus unleashed a serious attack on a ghoul. 

Axeholm Camp (eight crossbow shots 20 to hit damage 4)

((Banshee's turn or Rinn's?))

(( Rinn's... Banshee moved closer, but the characters don't really know that... they only heard it's recent wailing and the cry of alarm from the watch. ))

Rinn fires off another shot at the closest ghouls before moving a little closer again and ducking behind cover.

Longbow Attack: 12 Damage: 7

Sneak attack if applicable: 9

(Bonus action Hide - Stealth: 21)

(( Rinn's shot is deflected unexpectedly, by a pauldron the ghoul is wearing. ))

With his last fire bolt flying wide, and Rinn’s normally deadly shot being deflected, Robwin is looking at wall after wall of ghouls coming forward and he’s getting increasingly desperate…

He’s sure he can control it. Theoretically he can contain it. He just has to set off a cascading avalanche of raw weave. Just has to open the floodgates for unthinkable amounts of fire to spark fire, to spark fire, to spark fire…

Controlling it is the hard part. He’s never attempted it before…

His new acquaintances have engaged the front line of ghouls at the barricade… so he’ll attempt to set off his experimental fireball  spell between the 2nd and 3rd waves of ghouls as they rush in… hopefully hitting both groups? ((I think you said they were around 30ft, or one turn’s movement, apart?)). Aiming to engulf as many of those ghouls as possible…

Cast a spell action (fireball): Each creature must make a DEX save (DC15), or take 31 (fire damage). Half damage on save.

(( There are probably eleven that will hit the barricade this round, six the round after and seven after that. ))

The fireball explodes in the midst of sixteen ghouls (( three were spread slightly behind the seven ))

There is an overwhelming heat wave from the explosion.

(( The highest HP was 28 and the ghouls were taking double damage from fire. )) 

((Everyone make a constitution saving through DC 15 or take 6 heat/radiant damage. ))

Axeholm Camp crossbows 10 

Ghouls at the barricade 15 

The concussive heat wave is intense and the moment is eerie in its sudden silence. The stone of the floor and ceiling glow slightly. 

(( Barricade AC 18 HP 9 per ten foot segment. ))

The eleven ghouls on the barricade strike at it again. To hit: 16 damage: 11 and attempt to move ove it.

What are Yian and Silenus doing?

 Rinn's Constitution Save: 4

((Omg wow! Epic! Double damage from fire? That’s insane! Wow!!))

Robwin’s Con save: 14 

Robwin releases the fireball and sees the weave and air combust around the point he chooses. The fire erupts outward in all directions and fills the space and rushes towards him and his friends…

He uses every inch of his being to try and close it down in time. With his last effort he closes his eyes and feels the buffeting wave of energy as it reaches him and passes him. He opens his eyes, and despite the heat, he’s still alive… He did it!…

 ((Ydri is immune to fire damage, so let me know what he takes if he fails))

Ydri Save: 3

Yian Save: 14

Yian flinches back briefly from the flames, but she seems oddly used to the heat as she starts running towards it (Getting within 30ft of Ydri hopefully)

 As she does she drops to her one knee pulling two arrows from her quiver she quickly draws them around her in a wide circle, they start to glow white and spark her eyes flash with a burst of flames as she shouts in Draconic "Burst!" (Casting [spell]Hail of Thorns[/spell] at 2nd Level)

She then fires two shots in the blink of an eye at a Ghoul who is nested within it's kin, Ydri let's of a similar pulse to before should she hit!

Shot 1 To Hit: 19 Damage: 11

Shot 2 To Hit: 13 Damage: 6

Infused strikes: 4

Hail of Thorns

DC 13 Dex Save for all Ghouls within 5ft of the one she hit!

For 8 Damage (Half on a save)

Ydri takes the Dodge action as he was not commanded this round

((Apparently rolling high on my damage is a distant memory! Using Peircer to reroll the 1 roll))

Yian's arrows strike true.

Hitting one of the stronger looking ghouls crossing the barricade, it falls, while three around it are hit by thorns. ((Dex 17)).

((The barricade also takes damage in that one section,  though barely of any significance.))

In the sudden calm as you open your eyes, Robwin, you see Silenus, the satyr, is standing outside the barricade, engaging with some of the ghouls nearest it... a few steps further from the barricade and... 

Silenus, 

((ICYMI, make a constitution saving through DC 15 or take 6 heat/radiant damage. ))

To you it seems your shout at the ghouls charging was bearly past your lips when a red seed, the size of a duck egg, flew past you into their mists and burst. You saw, better than anyone, the sudden immolation and incineration of everything directly behind the ghouls you are directly engaged with. 

The heat is intense. 

((It is your turn.))
