The Forge of Fury

//is the room lit at all?//

GB follows the party into the room and listens at the sounds curious.

// It’s dim light, so you can see but not well. //

Bel readies his blade for whatever might come at them.

As Bel stands looking into the dusty gloom, the translucent form of an armored dwarf appears through a wall to Bel’s side, and rushes forward, howling with a horrifying visage! 

// Thanks to the magic of Lana’s bow, you aren’t considered surprised and are able to take any eligible reactions. //

As part of the ghost’s action, everyone (including Spirit) please make a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened of the dwarven ghost for 1 minute. You may then take your action!

Aregarak runs out of the room

Wisdom check 15

Bel screams like a little girl.

Wis 21

GB sees his companions shake with the appearance of the spirit but GB howls back at it!

"AAAARRROOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Upon seeing the ghost, Bel and Aregarak pale visibly, and appear to age dramatically before your very eyes...

// Bel and Aregarak both age 20 years! //

// At the end of your turn, if you are frightened of the ghost, you can repeat the Wisdom saving throw to end the frightened condition. //

// Yikes! Aregarak is now 45! //

//Holy moly! That sucks//

Lana look at the others and doesn't really know how to help but is not phased by the ghost.

Spirit Growls

Wisdom 10

// Aregarak, Bel, and Spirit are now frightened of the ghost. This doesn't necessarily affect your choices, but it does mean you have disadvantage on certain rolls. Check the condition for more info! //

What do you do now?

 Does Lana have an ability that lets her ignore ghosts?

Aregarak runs out of the room

 // Which direction? There is the hallway to the east or west, both of which have multiple doors and openings, or back into the Great Hall that you just left. //

// oh frightened doesn't force you to move away from the source anymore? must be 4E rules I'm thinking of - I guess if I don't have to run I won't //

// or maybe its the fear spell I'm thinking of //

Bel will attempt to hide in the shadows till he can regain himself

// So you can't willingly move closer to the source of your fear, but you and Bel were both engaged with it when it came out and attacked, so you have options! //

 // Do you leave the room through the door to the south or the east? See the map for positioning if it helps. //

// Once you are finished with your turn, let me know. You may repeat the Wisdom Saving Throw at the end of your turn (if you originally failed it), and if you succeed against DC 13 you regain your senses and aren't frightened anymore. //

// I see now with the map. I will repost//

Bel will disengage and move behind GB

Wisdom vs DC13 7

Bel quivers like a Scobby Do behind GB

// so I can attack it then? its within melee range? if so then....//

Aregarak swings wildly his mighty greatsword at the spectre before him
