Lorvax attempts to hide his disappointment. "The chains looked really weak"he says, trying to downplay Kray's show of strength. "Thanks for the assist Kray,"he says, trying and failing not to sound bitter,"I think I can take things from here." He turns his attention back to Luxure, putting on his sweetest ((unnaturally so)) voice,"We've freed you from those pesky chains. Is there any other way Imight assist?"
Brenvull, this whole situation is strange and unnerving but you can not quite put your finger on what troubles you about Luxure. It seems Lorvax us somewhat smitten, but is that so strange compared with everything else down here? You have to admit yourself the young female is very attractive.
Kray as you open yourself to your divine sense the presence of strong evil registers on your senses like a noxious odor... Luxures' eyes snap up to meet your own and as your gazes lock recognition hits you like lightning.
Kray you recognise Luxure as a succubus
Lorvax you hear the voice of your mistress in your mind, "Defend me, do not let them hurt me."
Luxure stands and begins to back away but Lostur you block her way.
Lostur simply makes good on his threat. "Ya know, you could've just answered the question, but you evil types always gotta do things the hard way," he grumbles, marking her with his hexblade's curse before pulling out his yklwa and trying to hit her.
BA: Hexblade's Curse Attack 1: 13 (probably a miss but I can roll damage if it isn't) Attack 2: 19 (crit) Damage: 19 (+3 to each damage roll from curse)
He then actually backs warily away from her, knowing full well that she's doing something to his otherwise more reasonable friends (taking any AOO she might want to give).
If her AOO hits, he'll use his Vengeful Assault to attack her again: (Attack: 19(crit) Damage: 14(+3 to each damage roll from curse)
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Lorvax bellows as he moves to prevent Lostur from continuing his attack. Unable to understand why his friend has just attacked a perfectly innocent and beautiful creature such as Luxure."Help! We must restrain him, his mind is clearly addled."he shouts to the other party members, imploring them for assistance.
Lostur doesn't contest Lorvax's strength, but rather tries to slip out of his grasp. Acrobatics to escape grapple, but it's only 5
"Let go o' me before she sucks your brain out or something!" Lostur growls, struggling ineptly in Lorvax's grasp. "Which head are you thinking with? We're here for the shrine!"
"Listen - that fact that Luxure is an incredibly attractive young lady has nothing to do with it!"Lorvax protests, still holding firm."Grab a hold of yourself Lostur. It is clear she means us no harm!"
Mention of the shrine briefly causes Lorvax pause for thought, "We do need to get rid of the shrines," he mutters to himself."I am sure Luxure will assist us with the shrine, should you be able to still your bloodlust!"
Terribly annoyed at being held down, Lostur squints at Luxure and hexes her. Then, not even bothering to struggle, he sends a few eldritch blasts her way.
Blast 1: 15 (or 13 with disadvantage from being grappled? It depends if Lorvax is considered to be attacking him or just holding him, I guess) Damage: 12 (8 force + 1 necrotic + 3 curse)
Blast 2: 13 (or 20 with disadvantage, because then the first roll would have been a 22 instead of a 13) Damage: 14 (6 force + 5 necrotic + 3 curse)
Brenvull a bit confused on what is happening casts Hold Person at third level on Lexure and Lorvax. "Sorry Lorvax, but could someone please tell me what in the name of Bahamut is going on before we start grappling our comrades and shoot the brains out of someone we just met?"
"Like I said!" Lostur snarls irritably. "She's still got hands! She can't be one of us!"
(I'm kind of glad Lostur rolled her into provocation, because his litmus test for trusting someone down here would've meant attacking her even if she was perfectly innocent XD )
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Lostur you release your blasts but Lorvax has you held tight and the power goes wide, slamming into the walls. (Apologies, should have made AD/DIS clear in the hand over, but thanks for picking it up).
WIS 13 Luxure is momentarily surrounded by a white glow as your spell begins to take effect Brenvull. Her eyes widen in surprise and then she laughs out loud as the glow disapates.
"Did you not hear your friend? I am no lowly humanoid to be held by that paltry spell." the ruse finally up she steps back and as she does her image warps and grows to reveal to two blood red wings that spread out behind her. Her scales are replaced by flush pink skin and her features become closer to human than dragonborn. Crimson eyes study you all as she speaks to you Lorvax.
"Break free my love and rain death down upon these fools."
Kray the chains snap without a problem.
Lorvax you feel disappointed and upset that you did not get chance to help you mistress.

Kray throw away the chains, not really paying more attention to it but looking at Lorvax. That sweet voice is in no way normal.
"Yeah" she says slowly "I think the cold make them real weak. You could have break them even without it I have no doubts"
She opens her mind to Bahamut and in silence ask him for guidance to reveal possible threats.

Lostur you strike Luxure drawing a deep gash across her side. She cries out in pain and scurries back behind Lorvax, trusting him to protect her.
Lostur make an athletics check to see if Lorvax has you grappled.

Kray, knowing that there is no way to reasoning with Lorvax, and realizing too late her mistake by freeing the fiend she turns towards the woman.
Fiend!! You deceiver!! release him!! Surrender now!! " she presents her holy symbol in front of her "It's Bahamut who commands you!! Be gone!!!"
