OOC: good idea. I’m currently mobile, so I can’t look up the max dimensions of crap we can throw in my Bag of Holding. Crispy, could we pull the painting down and throw it in my bag?

(You got lucky punk! Had a nice little surprise ready!)
Grishkar turns to Martha, "You know nothing. A priest is not all flowers and sunshine. They are servants of a divine master. You wish to invoke The Reaper, then by all means. He may take my life, but he will just as soon take everyone else's. If you haven't been paying attention, He is not fond of this thing we call 'Life'. Yes, I threaten a wielder of one of your precious artifacts, and I will GLADLY threaten another: Level that sword on me again, and it had better be to struck my head from my shoulders. My acceptance in this damned task is solely resulting in my imprisonment in this realm. Given the chance, I would gladly return from whence I came and leave you all to be ripped limb from limb."

“Yeah, you’re right... Of course, I’m not threatening to kill you. You play nice, or I won’t have an issue throwing you in that state of painting limbo myself. You may welcome death, but do you welcome a living hell? Then, we all die, and you’re stuck. Forever. You’re many things, Grishkar, and selfish is definitely one of them, you won’t risk becoming abhorrent to your beloved master.”
The hallway you came from, you can see the catacombs, and as you walk down that way, you know for a fact you're moving - but the distance to the catacombs isn't getting nearer. How odd.

For the first time since the ritual room, Grishkar cracks an old smile, "Abhorent? My dear, I am aborhent to and serving penance for The Despiser. My sin is Life and He demands Death. My prayers are blood and my offerings flesh. If I am trapped in this painting, I will pray for deliverance, but if my Master comes to personally snuff the life from each of you, I will sing his praises three times for every plea for freedom."

As Martha shoves Grishkar, a swell of arcane energy is released from the necromancer. Grishkar only has time to smile before an explosion of acid erupts from his chest.
(Vitriolic Sphere prepared for this ocassion. Everyone within 20' make a DEX save! DC 15 or take 26 damage now and 11 after next turn. Success causes half initial damage only. Zombie 1: 4. Zombie 2: 3. Both zombies dead, no hope for undead fortitude. Grishkar's save: 3)
As the acid eats away at Grishkar, he coughs out, "Nerull's will be done. Your servant has performed your task."
(Unconscious. Maybe dead? Idk, being eaten away by acid seems like a death-worth thing, even being 2hp over the limit. Lol)

Imryll completes a rather beautiful triple tuck backwards somersault, worth a 9.5 from the Russian judge, to tumble out of the way of the necromancer's explosion: 22
Bowing to the judges, Imryll takes half damage (13) this round and zero damage next round.
FYI: The final live person in the painting will be considered lost if you walk away into the next room. No recovery. None.
Briella will stop, willing to listen, but is ready to toss him in at a moments notice.
OOC:we cant take the painting with us can we.

Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?
//wow, sorry, missed a bunch today//
While in the painting did Bors make any realizations which could help us? Anything specific about the paintings inside?
OOC: I don’t suppose this is mentioned in the Tome of Strahd, is it?

Kia starts opening doors, looking for other living beings.
ey/em/eirs, or they/them works, too (just not he).
Role-playing since that keep on those borderlands. I love it so.

“Kay.” Martha pushes him in. Would that be a surprise? I figure no one expects Martha to actually do anything.

Oh snap!! I wasn't expecting that LOL
Ezmerelda teleports from the painting, a rage on her face, looking for Grishkar, only to find he is now in the painting.
Which leaves two(?) undead guards uncontrolled, now.
(Boom!)

OOC: Actually, I get a reaction when he casts it, so would I not push him, he about to trigger, then I react and push him in before the boom?
