OOC: I do not know how to use the tool tips to link the Bless spell.

OOC: I think like this:

Example: [ spell]bless[/ spell]   (Without spaces within the [ ] brackets.)

"People, push back the monsters and hold the line! Let's make a safe zone for any wounded!" Marcel shouts at the group, and she runs up and attacks zombie #1 with her battleaxe.

• Initiative: 7

Marcel enters in a state of massive focus and concentration, enhancing his physical prowess, like a massive adrenaline shot on his body.

• Bonus action: Rage (1 use left till Long Rest)

He runs to the closest zombie and trys to behead it!

• Battleaxe attack: Attack: Attack: 6 Damage: 6
• Knowledge of zombies using Religion: 13

Otwin had been steadily applying insect repellent, intent upon covering every inch of himself, when he heard the cry of his fellow adventurers.
"Nooooooo! Together we must stand!"

Moves forward 30 ft.
Initiative: 7
Shortsword attack on Zombie #4: Attack:  20 Damage:3



(Please tell me if I'm doing anything wrong, guys! I'm relatively new to this.)

Initiative:  9

Arcana:  20

Jiali runs towards the fallen dwarfs but will stay about 20 feet away from the Zombies having the rest of the group as a barrier between her and the threat. Then she picks the zombie attacking a dwarf closest to her and throws her dagger.

Attack: 14

Damage: 4

Time seems to slow down as each of you is flooded with adrenaline.  The moments stretch out as you reach into the instinctive actions that are the product of a life of training and survival.  Everyone seems to move at once, and you carry out the steps of your intention as best you can.

OOC:  Greetings players!  Karmoli has offered to run this combat to it’s resolution (be it fair or ill).  Please follow the instructions from Karmoli until the encounter is over.  Good Luck!!!

The zombies catch the three dwarves by surprise.

• Zombie 1 attacks Bongo: Attack: 7 Damage: 7
• Zombie 2 also attacks Bongo: Attack: 22 Damage: 7
• Zombie 3 attacks Pod: Attack: 9 Damage: 5
• Zombie 4 attacks Fred: Attack: 17 Damage: 7

Bongo takes 9 points of damage. Pod dodges out of the way. Fred takes 7 damage.

Initiative rolls:

• Zombies: 16
• Dwarves: 13

Initiative order:

• 16: Dwarves
• 14: Maynard
• 11: Rain
• 9: Jiali
• 9: Zombies (-2 Dex bonus)
• 7: Marcel
• 2: Otwin

The dwarves quickly gather their wits and draw handaxes to return the attacks.

• Bongo aims for Zombie 1: Attack: 18 Damage: 7
• Pod aims for Zombie 3: Attack: 9 Damage: 7
• Fred aims for Zombie 4: Attack: 15 Damage: 3

• Maynard moves away from combat and casts Bless on the three dwarves
• Rain runs up to zombies and hits Zombie 1 with her battleaxe for 10 damage
• Jiali stays 20 feet away and hits the Zombie 3  with her thrown dagger for 4 damage
• Zombie 1 slams Bongo again: Attack: 13 Damage: 5
• Zombie 2 joins in against Bongo:Attack: 23 Damage: 10
• Zombie 3 slams Pod: Attack: 18 Damage: 3
• Zombie 4 whacks Fred: Attack: 21 Damage: 7
• Marcel uses his bonus action to rage, runs up to the zombies, but his attack misses (natural 1)
• Otwin moves up and slices Zombie 4 with his shortsword for 5 damage

Beginning of Round 2:

Bongo is looking really rough, but he takes a determined breath and stands his ground.

(Brother Maynard's blessing gives each of the dwarves an additional 1d4 to their attacks.)

• Bongo attacks Zombie 1 again: Attack: 6 Damage: 5 (Add 3 to attack)
• Pod goes for Zombie 3 again:  Attack: 18 Damage: 3 (Add 3 to attack)
• Fred continues against Zombie 4: Attack: 21 Damage: 3 (Add 4 to attack)

Zombies 1 and 4 are looking really rough. Zombie 2 is unharmed.

(Everyone can post their attack whenever they want - as soon as possible. Don't wait for your turn in the initiative. I'll write up a summary that puts it all in order. If this causes your attack to be against a dead enemy, I'll just switch your target for you.)

Rain gives Bongo a worried look and hopes to end Zombie 1 with her next battleaxe attack: Attack: 6 Damage: 7

Her concern must have distracted her, because she swings wide and misses completely.

While maintaining concentration on the bless, Brother Maynard will fire the cantrip sacred flame at zombie #1.

Damage (if zombie fails Dex 13): 5

Brother Maynard will maintain his distance.

Round 2:

Marcel fails the strike but after he swings back!

He runs to zombie 2 and uses a heavy swing at it!

• Battleaxe attack: Attack: 21 Damage: 11

Otwin still doggedly uses his shortsword against the zombie.

Shortsword attack on Zombie #4:
Attack:  19
Damage: 7

Seeing Bongo being attacked by multiple enemys, Jiali focuses on Zombies 1 instead of her previous target. She casts toll the dead (DC 13 wis save) for 2 damage.

Round 2 continues:

• Brother Maynard casts Sacred Flame on Zombie 1 who is surprisingly quick to dodge it. (Dex save: 2)
• Rain attempts to bring it down, but it evades her battleaxe as well.
• Jiali casts Toll the Dead on it, rattling its bones for 2 damage (Wisdom save: 5)

Zombie 1 has lost several body parts, but still manages to stand. It seems like a hard shove would end it. It also seems like it would turn its attention to these other attackers, but all the zombies seem mindlessly focused on our dwarf friends.

• Zombie 1 attacks Bongo again: Attack: 15 Damage: 7
• Zombie 2 turns on Pod: Attack: 23 Damage: 7
• Zombie 3 also slams Pod: Attack: 9 Damage: 5
• Zombie 4 attacks Fred: Attack: 16 Damage: 2

Meanwhile, the last two party members in the order make their attacks:

• Marcel takes a heavy swing at Zombie 2 for 11 damage
• Otwin finishes Zombie 4 off with 7 points of damage from his short sword

As Round 3 begins, Bongo is barely holding on. Pod and Fred have taken considerable damage, but don't look quite as bad. It almost seems like these zombies can sense openings in the dwarves' defenses.

• Bongo strikes once more at Zombie 1, knowing that it is kill or be killed: Attack: 17 Damage: 3
• The Zombie falls dead and does not rise again. (Con save: 9)
• Pod turns on Zombie 2: Attack: 6 Damage: 3
• And Fred gives Zombie 3 a little sharp attention from his handaxe: Attack: 14 Damage: 3

(I don't know why it says manipulated dice rolls. I'm editing the post to add flavor and results, but not changing the dice rolls.)

Round 3:

Marcel trys to maim the zombie 2!

• Battleaxe attack: Attack: 18 Damage: 7

Zombie 4 also tries to rise up again. Con save: 9

It stands up again, if a little wobbly.

Round 3:

While maintaining concentration on the bless, Brother Maynard will again fire the cantrip sacred flame at zombie #1.

Damage (if zombie fails Dex 13): 6

Brother Maynard will maintain his distance.

OCC: If #1 is dead, please consider Brother Maynard redirecting his round 3 strike to keep #4 down.

(OOC: Brother Maynard, Zombie 1 is already down. It didn't come back up. Do you want to go for a different one? I agree with your use of the Bless spell.)

OCC: If #1 is dead, please consider Brother Maynard redirecting his round 3 strike to keep #4 down.
