Killilli’s Dragon Heist

"Aimee not right now," Kerri says. "Mystra wouldnt want us to use magic to force our way through."

The spectral hands continue to move out of the painting. Two ghostly, spectral forms take chase after Verklarung, their faces contorted in a horrifying snarl.

Initiative 12

"I'm a fan, not a follower! Oghma was my guy... But maybe I'm freelancing now since they booted me? What god do you have again Kerri?"

Her blast fizzles as she considers switching to another god then she notices the mouse running and switches to cheering for it again,

"Run! You can do it!"

Cico watches the painting and then listens to the discussion.

"It is a painting put here by the maker of this alley," Cico says. "It is not linked to either god."

He watches the ghostly hands.

"I think it more likely these are related to the shadowy ghost we fought before."

Cico clenches his fists and gets ready to help deal with the ghostly spirits.

Initiative: 25  

Initiative (just in case): 14

Edvord whispers to himself, "Get out of there friend.. you can make it."

Verklarungs eyes dart across the room looking for saftey. Barring any sort of rat sized hole in the wall, he will dart back towards the party and hide behind them on his turn, taking the disengage action if the hands are next to him, and the dash action if he is not within anything's threat ranges.

The spectral figures float in the air for a moment, seeming to sniff at the air giving most of you a moment to act before they lunge towards Verklarung as the brave little mouse struggles to turn tail.

Cico watches the ghostly forms reach for the little mouse and frowns. Animals have always been easier to relate to than people for the elf.

”You should not hurt a little mouse.” Cico says to the apparitions.

Without thinking further, he runs into the room, leaping up to kick at the closest ‘ghost’ hoping he connects with something. As he lands, he lashes out with his right fist then his left.

Lyss shoots an arrow at the ghostie!

Attack: 25 Damage: 13

"We're doing it! Yes! Run little mouse, run!"

 Attack: 21 Damage: 11

Cico’s foot passes through the spectral creature, it’s body dissipating into a fine mist where he struck. He feels very little resistance. His right fist passes through where the body once was, but as it reforms around his arm he pulls back and strikes it in the face with his left leaving a seemingly headless ghost behind. Spent before this unnasailable foe, the crackle of Aimee’s blast sounds like a joyous symphony, though it passes straight through where the head once was. Luckily, Lyss’s arrow is not far behind, passing through the blast before splintering into tiny fragments  which rain down on the specter. Everybody closes their eyes for a split second to avoid the debris from the arrow, as they open them it reconstitutes into one again.

(Two still remain)

"Got'm!"

Aimee raises her arms in victory.

Edvord nods in appreciation towards Aimee and Cico, "Verklarung has been a faithful servant, thank you for rushing to his defense."

The mage draws his rapier and similarly darts forward. He casts booming blade, attacks the nearest apparition, and uses the mobile feat to fall back safely.

Edvord Booming Blade Attack: 19 Damage: 11

Booming Blade Damage on Move: 4

As Edvord blade passes through the apparition before him, he feels the blade pass almost through thin air though a faint moan can be heard

(Aldrik is up, two ghostly figures hover menacingly over Verklarung and Cico. As your brother returns to the doorway, you notice there is no blood, no residue on his blade.)

Aldrik grips Zauberjager in both hands, and rushes forward, twisting the magical blade in the air and attempting to slash sideways through the closest ghost.

Attack: 17 Damage: 12

(OOC: Did you say if ZJ counts as a +1 weapon, or is just magical so it should bypass nonmagic resistance without adding to the rolls? If it's a +1, add +1 to the above rolls) 

(should be 13 damage, accidentally added the str modifier twice because I don't dndbeyond good)
