Right. If they took Radiant, no healy heal. And I healed them all, so i'll adjust the HP because I know some of them did. But at any rate, down goes Zaedra in multiple pieces. Another victim of Strahd down.

OOC > In case Kia is needed tonight after Imryll and Grishkar go... as I will be out.
Kia will rush at any remaining vampire, hissing and slashing, but just one attack action this time. She should use her radiant damage attack, but she's still pissed:
Attack 1a: 28 to hit, 10 magical-equivalent slashing damage Attack 1b: 24 to hit, 12 magical-equivalent slashing damage

Grishkar turns his attention to Jhezryn. A glob of black ichor forms in his hand and coagulates into a swarm of ticks and fleas as it flies toward the vampire.

LOWER FLOOR - CATACOMBS
Buried deep beneath the keep of Ravenloft lie ancient catacombs and unknown horrors. You leave the Chapel down the stairs as Ezmerelda remembers. The stairs spiral down and down, and what's strange is that it goes so deep down that it takes about five and a half minutes to reach the bottom. At the bottom are massive stone doors that you can open, and pass through. The catacombs are enormous, the arched ceilings supported by wide, hollow columns that double as crypts. Cobwebs hang limp in the musty air. A thick fog clings to the floor, which is covered in putrid waste. There are about 40 crypts here. Each one is sealed with a stone "door". They look heavy. It is clear that each crypt houses one person.
OBSERVATIONS: (1) The black ceiling is moving, writhing. (2) There are dozens of paintings(?) around the catacombs that resemble closeups of wounds. Cuts, bruises, scrapes. All of them. If you look closely at them, they seem to move.
LIGHT: It is completely dark in the catacombs.
NOISE: You can hear the occational low rumbling and growling. A creature? Or the physical walls of this place shifting?
"I don't remember these paintings being down here" Ezmerelda says, a bit nervous.
Click. Light. Martha sighs, “Guys. I think we’re in another living creature. Let’s just hope that as long as we don’t provoke it, then it might leave us alone. I’m like 70% we may be in its intestines.”

"There are so many." Ezmerelda says. "Which one should we check first?"
Stella pushes a button on one of her gauntlets, preparing for something. She looks nervous. "Who would hang such strange pictures?" She begins to reach up and touch one.
"Open 6 coffins. That is the limit that I am willing to expend for now to bolster our numbers." Grishkar's attitude at the sight of such a large necropolis is flat, methodical. It's as if this is simply business as usual.

Imrill, lets go, lets go, resist that grapple.
OOC > In case Kia is needed tonight after Imryll and Grishkar go... as I will be out.
Kia will rush at any remaining vampire, hissing and slashing, but just one attack action this time. She should use her radiant damage attack, but she's still pissed:
Attack 1a: 28 to hit, 10 magical-equivalent slashing damage
Attack 1b: 24 to hit, 12 magical-equivalent slashing damage
ey/em/eirs, or they/them works, too (just not he).
Role-playing since that keep on those borderlands. I love it so.
Since Kia will be out, i'll just describe her turn and let Imryll struggle =P
Jhezryn(11)22, Martha21, Imryll18, Taevia(2)10, Grishkar10, Kia8, Shy3, Bors0
Jhez down to 11 hp, Tae at 2.
Once the last two spawn are dead, i'll re-describe the scene - then on to the catacombs.
OOC: Sorry, my home network has been down all day today for upgrades and backups. Still down, so I’ll attempt to make my move via my phone.
Imryll’s acrobatics saving throw: 28
Next, she continues her attack on Teva Teavana:
Attack 1a: Attack 12 Damage 23
Attack 1b: Attack 17 Damage 25
Attack 2a: Attack 19 Damage 14
Attack 2b: Attack 22 Damage 19
Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?
Sheesh talk about overkill. Taevia just became Imryll's pincusion.
Someone take out Jhezryn, poor thing. Grish? Bors? Briella? Kia?
Briella and Briarfang will both attack Jhezryn.
Briella Mace attack:21 Damage:2 +7 radiant damage (Divine Strike)
Briarfang Attack 21 Damage:8
Grishkar turns his attention to Jhezryn. A glob of black ichor forms in his hand and coagulates into a swarm of ticks and fleas as it flies toward the vampire.

"70% sure? Pfbthfff. This is it's spleen." Stella scoffs.
“Right... So... we need to find Strahd’s parents.”

Stella pushes a button on one of her gauntlets, preparing for something. She looks nervous. "Who would hang such strange pictures?" She begins to reach up and touch one.
Martha puts the flat of her glaive between Stella and the painting and shakes her head.
OOC: Also, Martha is specifically looking for one that says Zarovich.

Ezmerelda looks around for a moment.
"There." She says. "King Barov and Queen Ravenova.." She points to the eastern end of the catacombs.
If one of you wish to open up any other crypt, they are numbered 1 to 40 for sake of mechanics.
Stella watches the paintings with much interest, holding back the urge to touch one.
“Where!?” Martha sprints off to the one marked by Ezmerelda. I would like to open the door.

"Let us go." Kia will keep pace with Martha to the eastern end of the catacombs. Passive perception is 16.
