Syvis blinks hard and shakes her head to clear it. Spreading her feet slightly, she takes in the scene around Thodek and carefully steadies her aim before letting a crossbow bolt fly at the nearest myconid engaged with the duergar.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Syvis shakes off the chilling vision, immediately steadying her aim and firing at the nearest myconid. It splatters the creature with furious force, causing it to slump over (Dead).
Thodek further heals himself again (+10hp (Total: +13hp)) before again taking a swing with the spiritual hammer, which again misses its target (Miss).
The myconid are up!
First, Phylo will take a single legendary action after Syvis’ turn, exploding the myconid nearest to the sovereign in order to regain 8 hit points (Total: -54 hp).
First, two more move down using their movement to get close to Phylo.
Then, two other that are in melee range of Thodek will attack with a slam:
Attack: 10 Damage: 6
Attack: 5 Damage: 8
(Both Miss!)
Lastly, the final one moves into melee range of Syvis and attempts to attack her with spores. Please make a DC 12 Con. Save or be poisoned for one minute.
With that, Nicholas is up! Don’t forget that you’re poisoned and have disadvantage on your attacks. Map has been updated; what would you like to do?

(Realize I forgot to make the Dex Save: 19, 5 damage taken)
Covered in gore and with poison coursing through his veins, Nicholas takes another shot at Pylo. He then reloads his gun a gets ready to fire once again.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(Ok, so Syvis is now poisoned for the next minute.)
Nicholas is up!
Despite the poison starting to take hold, Nicholas again fires straight for Phylo, this time actually hitting. The bullet strikes the sovereign in the chest, causing fungal gore to spray outwards, but the tall myconid appears to still be standing (-6hp (Total: -60hp)).
(Unfortunately, there is no end of turn save. No luck spent; good on you for trying though!)
Using a legendary action after Syvis’ turn, Phylo reaches out to the myconid within melee range of her, and causes it to explode in gore and acid. Syvis, please make a DC12 Dex Save, taking 11 acid damage on a fail, and half as much on a success.
Shishalki is up! Need a Dex Save from Syvis. Map has been updated; what would you like to do?
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Seeing the damage that the minions can be put to do, Shishakli moves his focus to another, hoping to take it out.
bonus action: move hunter's mark action: Attack: 22 Damage: 10
also, might it be possible to remind us of the next few people who are up before the monsters? Then we could queue up a few actions to all be resolved once you're back~
(Yep, in the future I will post the initiative order with every post just as a reminder. With this battle, the party is just more split up in the order, so queueing actions early could mean things will change before their actual turn.)
(Syvis also takes 11 acid damage due to the failed save.)
Initative Order: Shishalki, Phylo, Syvis, Thodek, Myconid, Nicholas
Shishalki fires another arrow, and it whistles through the head of one of the myconid engaged with Thodek, cause the creature to fall limp (Dead).
Phylo is up!
Seeing their numbers thin, the sovereign grimaces, and spends its turn dashing towards the melee fray with Syvis and Thodek, but is unable to do anything beyond that.
Back to the party! Syvis and Thodek are up! Both of you are poisoned. Nicholas (And Shishalki), feel free to queue your action should you want, just know the regular myconid will take their turns before you. Map has been updated; what would you like to do?
Syvis' eyes narrow and she spits blood as she stares down the advancing sovereign. Not backing down, she raises her crossbow defiantly and fires.
Steady Aim gives her advantage from not moving, which cancels out the disadvantage from being poisoned. Her previous use of Insightful Fighting is still up as it lasts for a minute. So the attack is a straight roll but still gets sneak attack.
Initative Order:Shishalki, Phylo, Syvis, Thodek, Myconid, Nicholas
Syvis stands her ground against Phylo, leveling her crossbow again and firing. It pierces the chest of the sovereign, causing Phylo to spit what can only be considered blood, but is still standing (16hp (Total: -76hp)).
Thodek uses even more healing magic to reinforce his energy (+7hp) before taking another swipe with the spiritual hammer, that unfortunately does not make contact (Miss).
Myconid are up!
One moves up towards Syvis, making a slam attack at the pale elf:
Attack: 18 Damage: 8
(Miss!)
And the other, in melee combat with Thodek will continue to assault the gray dwarf:
Attack: 11 Damage: 5
The attack hits, crunching into Thodek’s side (-7hp).
Nicholas is up! Shishalki may queue his action as well should he want to. Map has been updated; what would you like to do?
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Still reeling from the poison that is coursing through his veins, Nicholas takes careful aim at Phylo and fires off another shot. It was clear that they needed to take down the myconid if they were to get through this.
Action: Use 1 Grit Point for Deadeye Shot (0/2 grit points remaining). Attack: 19 Damage: 6 (3/4 bullets before reload) Move: None Bonus Action: None

Initative Order:Shishalki, Phylo, Syvis, Thodek, Myconid, Nicholas
Nicholas grits his teeth, firing successfully at Phylo, further injuring the sovereign (-11hp (Total: -87hp)).
Then, after Nicholas’ turn, Phylo uses a legendary action to cause the final myconid within range of Thodek to explode in acid and gore. Thodek, please make a DC 12 Dex Save, taking 5 acid damage on a fail, and half as much on a success.
Shishalki then follows up, firing an arrow at the myconid nearest to Syvis, taking it down (Dead).
Phylo is up!
Phylo spends its movement closing the gap between itself and Thodek, then making a spore attack. Please make a DC 12 Con. Save, or be stunned for 1 minute.
Thodek: for the first time being so close to the sovereign, and with all its minions gone, you begin to see genuine uncertainty on its face.
Syvis and Thodek are up! I need both a Con and Dex save from Thodek as well. (I’ve got a queued action already from Thodek, so will wait for Syvis but if Thodek would like to change, that is fine too). Map has been updated; what would you like to do?
Syvis sways for a moment but shakes it off. She reloads her crossbow with a bolt dipped in drow poison and fires once again at the sovereign.
Again using Steady Aim to counter the poison's disadvantage for a straight roll.
Attack: 18 Damage: 15 piercing damage. If it hits, Phylo must make a DC13 Con save or be poisoned for an hour. With an 8 or lower, he also falls unconscious.
Syvis blinks hard and shakes her head to clear it. Spreading her feet slightly, she takes in the scene around Thodek and carefully steadies her aim before letting a crossbow bolt fly at the nearest myconid engaged with the duergar.

I bookmarked this post just so I could find it as I inevitably lose track of the order. But yeah, queueing up the next turn or two would be helpful.
