(CHOOSE WISELY FOR ONE PATH LEADS TO YOUR GOAL. THE OTHER TO CERTAIN DEATH...DEATh...DEAth...DEath...Death...death...)

Grishkar leaves the others to their pondering and inspects the gallows and graves purely out of morbid curiosity.

Trolls movie, love it haha!

"They should be friendly enough.." Ireena says lightly. "They would frequent the town during the day. Easy going folks. I heard a fortune teller might be among them.."

Griskar you suddenly hear a creaking noise, and there's a decomposing very dead body now hanging from the rope, in the noose. It turns slowly in the breeze to face you, and..is it looking at you..?

“Yeah, I’m leaning toward meeting potentially helpful gypsies rather than possibly more giant wolves. I vote p- What’s Grishkar looking at?” Martha turns to also look at the empty noose, and then looks to Grishkar again, “Oh. He’s gone crazy. Finally.”

Martha, you notice Grishkar looking at an empty noose. There's nothing hanging on it. He's just starting at a rope swinging in the breeze.

OOC: Oh! That’s some voodoo...

Ireena wonders for a moment, Martha, what you're staring at...? "What is that one doing?" She says to you. "He makes me nervous.."

"Grishkar...you're not thinking to use that are you?

"I suggest we see if there are any gypsies at the pool, they may have some information we would need."

Grishkar meets the gaze of the corpse, "Well, hello Beautiful. I would pass along Nerrul's regards, but I suppose they've been given, received, and returned by now." Grishkar pulls out a long, curving dagger, perfect for slicing, and begins to idly cleaning his nails, "Care to point us in the right direction? Living or dead, which way is which?" He punctuates his question with the blade, leaning lightly against a post.

“I just met him yesterday to be perfectly honest. I could easily mistake him for a native of this land with how he’s been acting...” Martha whispers back to Ireena.

The corpse continues to look at you, Grishkar, and it's eyes start to bleed, so much that within moments the whole corpse is covered with blood. "THE ONLY DIRECTION I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU IS WHERE YOU CAN DIEEEEE! MY MASTER WILL REWARD ME GREATLY FOR MY SERVICE. COME FLESHY ONE. LETS DANCE." 

The corpse explodes blood everywhere and, startling everyone, you are all drenched. Gross. The gallows crumbles and falls apart and the most enormous zombie you've ever seen emerges where none was before, skinless, bloodied, tentacles writhing from it's body - it looks like ten bodies horrifically mutated together. It looks very hungry and towers greatly over you all. Ireena gasps in horror and unsheathes her longsword. "What have you done?!"

MINI BOSS 2

UMBRAELUS THE PUTRID

Roll for initiativeeeeeee.....!

Initiative:     :0)

“I am growing to dislike you necromancer! And I dislike very few things!”

Initiative: 16

OOC: I’ll just mark down my turn so I don’t hold it up.

Martha pounds her gauntlets together with a grunt and spins her glaive as her eyes take on that familiar burning gold. She enters a Rage once more! Charging in, she brings her glaive down in two sharp strikes, Attack 1: 22 Damage: 7 slashing + 7 radiant and Attack 2: 23 Damage: 8 slashing.

OOC: Also, DM, a question. After taking another look, I wanted your input. The Divine Fury ability says that “While you’re raging, the first creature you hit on each of your turns with a weapon attack takes extra damage equal to 1d6 + half your barbarian level.” would that apply to both attacks or only one?

(8 initiative)

Grishkar draws his wand and waves his minions forward, "Fool! I am Grishkar Darkmoor, Beast of the Black Wood, Deathcaller, Fleshherder! My Master is beyond the ken of your own! Fall and be brought to heel before the Herald of Nerrul." With a wave, Grishkar forms a massive orb in his hand that quickly shrinks to fit in his palm. As it diminishes, a ravenous glow emerges. With a whip of his arm, Grishkar looses a flaming orb at the undead beast.

(Chromatic Orb: 9 attack, 15 Fire damage on hit. Bonus action to command zombies to attack, preferably to surround and flank as movement allows. Falling back behind them for move action.)

(Zombie initiative: 2, 13, 10, 5, 6)

Kia's initiative: 22

On her turn, Kia will use some of her 40' move to place herself within 30' of the monster, the range of her radiant sun bolts. For her attack action she will make two attacks, then expend 1 Ki point to make two more sun bolt attacks as a bonus action. She will conclude her move with whatever is left by placing herself just outside the apparent range of the monster (if he can reach her at her 30' distance, that is, if not, she will stay where she is).

Attack action:
Attack 1, radiant sun bolt: 19 to hit, 7 radiant damage
Attack 2, radiant sun bolt: 8 to hit, 5 radiant damage
Expend 1 Ki for two more sun bolts as bonus action:
Attack 3, radiant sun bolt: 9 to hit, 7 radiant damage
Attack 4, radiant sun bolt: 21 to hit, 10 radiant damage

Initiative: 3

On her turn Briella will take a couple steps back from the creature. She clutches her holy symbol and begin casting the familiar spell Guiding Bolt.

Attack:11 Damage:16

Initiative: 9

 As once again Odmun awakes from yet another bewildering drunken stupor, he sees the hideous moving corpse. The Bugbear furrows his brow and unsheathes his rapier. It's stuck! He staggers back and forth as he struggles to get the thing out. Finally, it releases, giving a high pitched singing tone as it's drawn. With his weapon out, Odmun finds his balance at last! 

(Glad to have you back, Xero! I was afraid you were going to miss the fun :) )

OOC: I wouldn't! xD

UMBRAELUS: 7

Finally, a decent roll LOL.

Ok, here's initiative so far:

Griskar19, Umbraelus17, Zombie17, Martha16, Kia13, Odmun9, Zombie10, Zombie9, Zombie9, Briella3, Zombie1, Bors 0

And Kia, that's the FIRST attack only per turn, to answer your question.

One moment, calculating attacks.

Grishkar, your attack hits true, slams against Umbraelus. Nice shot. 

Umbraelus retaliates against you, Grish.

Attack: 27 Damage: 24

Attack: 20 Damage: 14

"UMBRAELUS SMASH PUNY FLESHLING!"

Martha, your second glaive attack slices deep. Ouch.

WHAK WHAK WHAK WHIFF! You missed that last attack Kia. Nice hits!

Briella, your guiding bolt looks beautiful as it charges towards Umbraelus, but he dodges it.

Odmun, Bors, and the Zombies. You're up.

OOC > It was Martha's question, IIRC, about her extra radiant damage.
