Killilli’s Dragon Heist

As Zauberjager swings through the misty air, a wail echoes around the room, fading away. The spectral form before Aldrik dissipates into nothingness. 

The horrifying face of the other spectral creature turns to Aldrik, it’s mouth wide open sucking at the air before him. As it lunges, Aldrik starts to feel a weakness, as if his strength, his very life is being pulled from his body. 

Attack: 12 Damage: 10

Verklarung and Kerri are up. One down, one to go.

Aldrik dances out of the way. "I'll keep my spirit where it's at, thank you very much!"

Verklarung disengages and attempts to put as many bodies between him and the remaining spirit.

Kerri raises her hand and radiant flame envelopes the spectre.

Damage 2 radiant

Round 2

Initiative Order

Spectre

Verklarung, Kerri

The remaining spectral figure seeths as it’s swing for Aldrik is deflected. A shriek fills the air as it recoils from the radiant flame.

Cico looks at his fist, unsure of whether or not it actual did anything to the spectre he lashed out at before.

He quickly draws his straight jian from it's scabbard and slashed out at the remaining spectre, letting the momentum of his blow carry him forward, striking out quickly with his free hand.

Action - Short Sword (Jian) - Attack: 16 Damage: 10  

Bonus Action - Unarmed Strike - Attack: 16 Damage: 8  

Aldrik watches Cico's wide jian swing, followed by the follow up punch. "Cico, my lad, we've got to spar with blades more!"

He then rolls forward and attempts to do a two-handed sword lunge through the spectre with ZJ, putting extra force into the blow but leaving himself potentially vulnerable.

Attack (Reckless!): Attack: 12 Damage: 9

Aimee blasts, certain her last blast was super effective, calling,

"Run mousy! To safety!"

 Attack: 24 Damage: 14

With a brilliant flash from Aimee’s hand the specter dissipates before you. 

You are able to safely cross the room, and open the door into the room on the other side. Inside, you see your reflections staring back at you from every which angle, it seems like the walls, floor and ceiling are made entirely of mirrors. Your line of sight is only impeded by one solitary object in the centre of the room, a statue, three feet tall depicting a rearing unicorn.

Cico returns his ineffectual blade back to its slim scabbard and looks in the mirrors for a moment before approaching the unicorn statue.

"It is bigger than I expected," Cico says as he examines the unicorn for any traps.

Perception: 17  

Aldrik also takes a look, helping Cico. "I was expecting something palm-sized.... this'll need a bit to move."

Is it blue?

(Also, weirdly, Cico's perception roll say 6 in the text, but 22 on mouseover... regardless Aldrik will help Cico for advantage on the roll)

Cico's second roll if advantage allowed: 23  

((Ya, Thoradin's perception roll is showing up odd for me as well. Should be 22 but shows up as 6! I will need to check all my rolls in the future... Actually, my attack roll above says I rolled 8d6 and got an 18 even though it is showing a 24. I just rolled it using the normal attack roll input, so I don't understand what is going on there.))

Aimee yells,

"WOO! Got it! We saved you mousy! Run, run free!"

She'll also poke her head into the mirror room,

"Neat!"

She look to see if the unicorn is reflecting in the mirrors, if it isn't she'll let those going in know.

The statuette is pale blue, crystalline with clear shards. As Aldrik and Cico focus entirely on the unicorn, coming up short on finding any traps, Aimee observes the mirrors. She can see the unicorn reflected on the walls, ceiling, and even on the back of the door where magical text floats across the surface of the mirror stating “Everything you see is mine”

Cico looks over at Aldrik, nods, then reaches out to the unicorn, placing one hand on the side. If nothing happens, he attempts to lift it up.

It’s lighter than it looks, and it feels incredibly fragile. It is in Cico’s arms.

Cico looks from the fragile unicorn in his arms around the room to the others. He spares only the briefest pause when he looks at Aimee and Lyss.

"No. That is a bad idea," Cico says to himself before continuing to look at the others. His eyes then rest on Aldrik and he shakes his head. "Almost as bad. Too impulsive."

For a wizard, Edvord is mixed up in hand to hand combat and also likely to break the unicorn.

"Kerri," Cico says, nodding to himself. "Your pack will likely be the safest place for this unicorn."

He holds it out to her.

"Wait! No! I am a good idea! I hardly ever get hurt! And I got lots of room in my bag!"

"My pack?" Kerri asks. "A bad idea? Well something tells me something is going to try and kill us the second we step out of this room but sure, give me the idea idea unicorn."
