With a moan, the owlbear lets out a final screech as it collapses to the ground unable to even move before Chan blasts it with both divine radiant and unholy necrotic energy and as it is hunkering from the ranged blasts, Yuno leaps into the air smashing its skull with the hilt of her rapier. Stepping back and aiming carefully, Yuno places her second rapier firmly in the owlbear's eye and by the time she withdraws her blade, the creature is nothing more than dust.
"Wira, get yourself and the Halfing out of there!" Sythm shouts as he prepares his own spell. Wira runs towards Gogon and teleports away, taking Gogon with her, although they appear on two different sides of the room. Now that the Halfling is right next to him, Sythm can heal the Halfling back to life.
BA: Command Wilfire Spirit. Action: Take the Ready action to cast Cure Wounds on Gogon when he's teleported next to Sythm. Wira runs to R-13 and uses her Fiery Teleportation. Wira appears in Q-14 while Gogon is teleported to V-13 (look it up, they don't have to teleport to the same direction, just 15' away). The Bugbear must make a Dex save vs DC 15 or take 7 fire damage. Reaction: Cast the readied spell on Gogon, healing 7.

The owlbear is singed by the flame but lets out a horrible screech in pain as it watches its companion disappear and with fury in its eyes, it charges towards the nearest thing it can see and lashes out with beak and claw against Chan.

"Stupid owlbears,"grumbled Gogon as he flipped up to his feet. Going with his tried-and-true tactic, he hurled his spear at the creature, then took a deep breath before blowing out a line of flame toward the owlbear. Satisfied, he quickly ducked behind the nearest tree to avoid any retribution.
MOVE: Spend 20' of movement to get to his feet ACTION: Two attacks - Spear Throw - Attack: 11, Magical Piercing Damage:13 - Breath of the Dragon - blowing a Line of Fire:DC 14 DEX save, 9 damage on failure, 4 on success BONUS: None (unless in melee range of Owlbear, in which case also using Step of the Wind to disengage.) MOVE: To X-12 REACTION: If the owlbear chases and damages Gogon, and he survives, he'll use the Rod of Retribution to shoot lightning at it; Creature must make a DC 13 DEX save, or take 14 damage (7 on success)

The owlbear manages to avoid the line of fire, still getting burned a bit. But the spear lodges firmly in its shoulder and its leg buckles as it begins to breathe heavily.
(Was thinking the bear acts before Sythm but realised he doesn't. Queueing my turn then...)
Sythm notices the bugbear's heavy breathing and smiles. "Wira, let's end this!" Then, he conjures fire in his hand and lobs it at the monster. A moment after, Wira spits a flaming seed at the bear.

(OOC: Not gonna wait for another post... both of the attacks hit and the owlbear is almost dead...)
With a pair of flames, one from the fiery cat and another from the master, the owlbear goes up in flames without a sound and all that is left is a pile of ashes and a small sack of 25 GP.
9 ; 4
As the ashes settle to the ground, and you notice the gold, five pillars rise up out of the ground covered in vines and each holding a magical item.
(OOC: Oooookay... Soooooo I didn't expect to roll that last one, and I didn't even realize @lancellot put that on the table so I'm going to have to take a closer look at the construct and modify it a bit... I will post the updated stat block for the servant by the end of the day today (hopefully...) so that you all can take a look and make your decision. I will definitely be removing/downgrading its laundry list of immunities, but I might make other changes once I take a closer look. With that said... Take your time with this decision and enjoy!)
Gogon (after retrieving his spear) went over to carefully examine each item. He looked back at the others and received various nods, frowns and gestures leading him to finally settle on the floating needle. Reaching for it, he felt a sudden flash of rage--"That was odd"--but suppressed it, and took hold of the item.
As Gogon takes the needle into his hand, it lays there for a second before rising up with a flash and liquidating entirely into red ink that melts itself into Gogon's arms and torso. Each of his arms now has large spiraling shadow dragons tattooed on them, and although not immediately visible, his chest and torso also had a large five-headed multicolored dragon resembling what could only be Tiamat. As the tattoo is chosen the other pillars fall back below the ground and the large construct vanishes.
Three doors also appear before you.
98 ; 81

The door on the left has an image of a faintly glowing bed and the door on the right has a moderately glowing spear. The spear also has some dwarven runes inscribed upon it. The central door, like last time, has an image of a sack of coins glowing red.
Doors (Left to Right): Short Rest Red Coins Moderate Glow
Gogon thought for a second. "Well, I'm starting to tire a bit; I could use a rest.
"But it's not critical yet, and I could still push through. In fact,"--he looked down at his arms--"I might actually be able to use this to recuperate some."
The halfling looked towards the others and shrugged. "Your call."
As you enter the room, you hear loud caws as two seemingly bird-like creatures hover near the center of the room. Upon closer inspection, they appear to have oddly shaped bodies and almost look like some kind of stag.
(You may all reposition up to 10 feet away from the door for free)

Gogon's eyes flashed red as he grinned. Racing toward the creature on the left, he leapt and spun into a rapid flurry of kicks and spear thrusts before landing.
(All unarmed attacks will do Fire Damage, and each successful hit will use up a charge from the Blood Fury Tattoo to do Necrotic Damage and heal Gogon) (If first creature is downed, Gogon will proceed to T-10 to use the remaining attacks on the second creature.)
MOVE: To R-11 ACTION: - First Attack, Spear Thrust: Attack: 23, Magical Piercing Damage:10 + Necrotic Damage: 14 - Second Attack, Spinning Kick: Attack: 16, Fire Damage:10 + Necrotic Damage: 16 BONUS: Using Flurry of Blows for two unarmed attacks - Snap Kick 1 - Attack: 13, Fire Damage:5 + Necrotic Damage: 16 - Snap Kick 2 - Attack: 19, Fire Damage:6 + Necrotic Damage: 13 REACTION: First creature that damages him, Gogon will use a charge from the Rod of Retribution to force a DC 13 DEX save from the creature... - Failure on the save = Lightning Damage: 10 (5 damage if success on the save)

Gogon's eyes flashed red as he grinned. Racing toward the creature on the left, he leapt and hurled his spear at the creature as he breathed in deeply, then upon landing, he exhaled a stream of fire right behind the weapon.
(All successful weapon attacks will use up a charge from the Blood Fury Tattoo to do Necrotic Damage and heal Gogon.)
MOVE: To R-11 ACTION: - First Attack, Spear Throw: Attack: 11, Magical Piercing Damage:12 + Necrotic Damage: 17 - Second Attack, Breath of the Dragon: DC 14 DEX Save, on failure: 6 Fire Damage (only 3 on success)
REACTION: First creature that damages him, Gogon will use a charge from the Rod of Retribution to force a DC 13 DEX save from the creature... - Failure on the save = Lightning Damage: 11 (5 damage if success on the save)

Dex Save: 6
The creature is struck by the spear and infused with the power of his tattoo, it sucks the life energy out of the goat-bird's body and replenishes the halfling's strength. It manages to spin out of the way of the flaming breath, but the heat still singes it. It flies up to the ceiling (30 Feet) and dives down with its wings folded in to lash out against Gogon with beak and claw. Meanwhile, the other goat-bird slowly flaps to the ceiling as it approaches Yuno and repeats the dive. After their attacks, both the monsters fly back up a little.
(Flyby so no opportunity attacks)
Against Gogon: Gore Attack: 18 Damage: 7 Talon Attack: 23 Damage: 8 If either attack hit, do an extra 16
Against Yuno: Gore Attack: 18 Damage: 10 Talon Attack: 12 Damage: 9 If either attack hit, do an extra 14

Meanwhile, Gogon's breathing stabilizes a little.
Sythm is up next!
“The mark of a successful DM is when you have caused more player deaths with doors than dragons, demons, or devils.”

The pillars present: A small iron flask with a brass stopper that seems to be humming with magical energy. Upon closer inspection, you can hear a soft rumbling inside the flask. ; A large needle with bright red ink inside of it. The needle itself isn't laying on the platform, but rather hovering a few inches above it, anyone that steps near it feels a slow rage beginning to build in them as the colors inside the needle seem to swirl and draw out emotion. ; A scimitar lies on another of the platforms, pulsing with magical power. A soft barrier seems to form itself around the weapon and there is a rune on the hilt that says the word "shield" in dwarven. ; A full suit of plate mail is adorned on a mannequin as opposed to simply being laid out on the platform as the other armor has been. The armor includes gauntlets, boots, and a visored helmet. The armor doesn't look extraordinary except for the fact that, unlike normal plate mail, this suit of armor doesn't appear to have any gaps between the sections as it all appears to fit together perfectly. Covering the full body of the wearer. ; The last pillar groans for a second, and you hear a loud clanging sound as gears appear to be trying to pull something up. Eventually, the gears stop grinding although the pillar doesn't rise. For the first, time you hear a bit of irritation in the voice that has previously been entirely emotionless as it lets out a groan and then a sigh. With a magical flash, the opening in the ground where the pillar was presumably going to rise, disappears. In another flash, a huge metallic construct appears in the empty space where the pillar would have come up. The construct appears to be created out of a magical black metal that glows faintly. While the construct doesn't appear to have a head, it has two massive metallic arms. Upon closer observation, it looks as if there is a hatch in its upper back that could potentially be opened.
"Choose one."

Yuno whistles at the intricate dragon patterns on Gorgon's body and says, "Tattoos huh? Nice."
She looks up at the door and ask, "You guys feel like resting or killing more shit?"
Gogon thought for a second. "Well, I'm starting to tire a bit; I could use a rest.
