((Stiffkick, are we going to get a surprise round off, and if so, do we need to roll anything to make that happen besides out various attack rolls?))

Kind of depends on how you go thru the door. In fact, go ahead and give me Initiative Rolls, then tell me how you get past the door.

Harmony's Initiative: 16

Harmony's doorway plan: If we can see through the doorway, then getting in should be as easy as kicking through the door and putting the boots to the enemy, shock and awe style. Lucius and Ravenath will use the surprise of our entrance to bum-rush the two goblin guards and hopefully kill them quickly. Harmony will fire off Guiding Bolt at the big Bugbear and, Pelor willing, do him a great bit of harm before he realizes what is going on. While that is happening, Roscoe will use the confusion to punch and kick the cloaked goblin into some form of submission. Assuming that ends the surprise round, initiative will begin and things will play out from there.

Roscoe will just do a flying kick at the cloaked goblin and an added punch.

Initiative: 9

Ravenath Initiative: 12

Lucius Initiative: 15

(Once everyone gets together for the plan and gets ready, Ravenath throws the door open and he and Lucius let out a mighty war cry as they go after the 2 Goblins milling around on the side. Lucius hangs back a little to let Ravenath attack first, using his Roguish tricks to his advantage. Lucius swings his sword with all his might at the Goblin on the Left.)

Ravenath Attack: 15 Damage: 8

(Ravenath buries his sword right in the Goblin's head. When he pulls it out, a huge spurt of blood comes out and the Goblin falls to his knees and keels over, dead. With the other Goblin distracted by Ravenath, Lucius sneaks up behind him, yells, "Surprise, jerk!", and stabs him with one of his daggers!)

Lucius Attack: 19 Damage: 5 + 1

(The second Goblin gets stabbed right in the neck and a huge amount of blood starts spurting out. He howls in pain and looks to be at death's door, but is still standing.)

Goblin Initiative: 7

Shaman Goblin Initiative: 21

 Bugbear Initiative: 14

Feel free to roll your attacks, guys.

For DM: 

As her friends begin making quick work of the goblins, Harmony concentrates on her target and intones her thoughts with words of divine power. Above her, the golden symbol of Pelor manifests in radiant light.

From it emits a blast of pure energy directed straight at the bugbear.

Harmony casts Guiding Bolt: Attack - 6 / Damage - 17 (and the target grants advantage on the next attack made against it until the end of Harmony's next turn)

((Nooooooooooooooo! This is not the time to miss Harmony!))

Flying Kick: Attack: 16 Damage: 4

Punch: Attack: 11 Damage: 7

(Harmony's Guiding Bolt attack misses the Bugbear, who you can only assume is the leader, Sarris, by mere inches. It's too bad, as it looked like it would have been devastating.)

Meanwhile, the Shaman Goblin is trying hard to concentrate to continue the ritual, but Roscoe comes in with a Flying Kick that drives the air out of him! Roscoe tries for a punch as well, but misses!

The Shaman, panicked at having Roscoe right next to him, grabs him by the arm and casts Shocking Grasp on Roscoe!

Attack: 17 Damage: 8

(The electrical charge runs thru Roscoe as crackling is heard and he shakes violently. The force throws Roscoe back and he looks like he's in really bad shape, but so is the Shaman!)

DM's note: Ouch, sorry Roscoe, the dice are trying to kill you and Harmony's dice are being uncool. Hope you guys get out of this alive. Harmony, you're up. 

Harmony looks on with tear streaked eyes as her attack fails to find its target. As she looks around the room she sees her friends managing to hold up their ends of her plan while she, again, managed to not come through. Now Roscoe was in some real danger and Harmony had a choice to make; use the last of her power to take a final shot at the bugbear, or try to heal her friend. Wiping her tears with a clenched fist, she makes her choice, staring down the large brute.

"بபெலரின் தெய்வீக ஒளியைக் கொண்டு, துன்மார்க்கரின் அனைவருக்கும் நியாயந்தீர்ப்பின்போது, நான் உங்களை வெறுப்பதைக் கண்டேன்."

As the infernal words escape her lips, the fading symbol of Pelor flares again with divine radiance and a beam of power strikes out again toward the bugbear.

Harmony casts Guiding Bolt: Attack - 8 / Damage - 15 (and the target grants advantage on the next attack made against it until the end of Harmony's next turn)

((Prays for this to work.))

((Gods damn it!))

(Right as Harmony is concentrating on casting the spell and aiming, she hears a small, whimpering cry from the corner. She looks over and sees that on the far left corner of the room, a small girl is squatting in a small cage, her dirty, tear-stained face covered in dirt and mucus. She sobs softly, as if she has been crying for hours and hours and is just about cried out. Harmony is distressed and distracted by this, and misses her spell because of it.)

(Lucius, seeing that Roscoe is in danger, uses the cover to sneak attack the Bugbear, jumping on Sarris and trying to stick his dagger in the exposed neck area!)

Attack: 13 Damage: 6 + 2

(Sarris shakes Lucius off, causing his dagger to bounce off his armor. Enraged, Sarris swings his mighty Warhammer at Lucius with all of his strength!)

Attack: 14 Damage: 10

(Lucius tries to use his nimbleness, but the Hammer is too fast, and it hits Lucius right in the ribs, compressing his chest and wounding him quite severely! Lucius is down!)

(Ravenath, meanwhile, tries to finish off the hurt Goblin in front of him.)

Attack: 18 Damage: 11

(Ravenath finishes off the Goblin with a mighty stroke. The little Goblin lets out a scream as he's cut down. Ravenath turns to see his fallen companion and the rest of his party in trouble, and tries to rush to their aid. All 3 conscious party members are now squared off against the Bugbear and the Shaman.)

Roscoe, you're up.

Roscoe will try to take out the shaman again.

Attack: 6 Damage: 7

Attack: 14 Damage: 6

(Halfling Luck: 12)

(Roscoe takes down the Shaman with a flying kick to the head! The Shaman keels over, dead.)

"Aaaaaaaah! My ritual! You'll pay for that!"

(Suddenly, you all hear some yelling from the way you came. A pair of Goblin guards (who had been patrolling around and you apparently missed) come running towards you all.)

Harmony, you're up, just a reminder, I'm pretty sure you're out of Spell Slots. 

((Yep, it's pretty much cantrips for Harmony from here on...))

Seeing the young girl in the cage, Harmony decides that she can at least try to help get her out if she can't be useful anywhere else. As she dashes over there, she wishes her friends much better luck with the fight at hand and sends off a blast of divine light at the Bugbear.

Harmony casts Sacred Flame (Dex Save DC 12, Damage 4)

When she gets to the cage, Harmony checks for a lock of some kind or if it was just latched and the goblins were using guards and fear to keep the girl inside.

(There is a lock, but it’s not the best quality. The cages is rusty and old as well. Bess sees you and looks scared because she doesn’t know what’s going on.)

DMs note: I’m going to say you can make an attempt to free her as a bonus action. Decide how you want to try and roll the appropriate skill (strength to muscle it, dexterity to pick, etc

((As a quick aside, I can't actually cast Bless, as it is a first level spell and Harmony is out of slots. I recognized my mistake after posting it and edited the post to reflect the fact that Harmony actually cast Sacred Flame at the bugbear (Dex Save DC 12, Damage 3 Radiant) on her way over to the cage, but for some reason my post seems to have reverted back to the original post where I was casting Bless. Please ignore that and have the bugbear save for damage.))

Looking at the lock, Harmony sighs. What luck, the lock was old and crappy, and conveniently just about kind she used to be able to pick back during her urchin days on the street. Pulling a set of crude children's lock-picks from the pouch on her belt, Harmony crouches down and gets to work on the lock. "Don't worry Bess, your dad sent us to come rescue you. I'm Harmony and I'm going to get you out of here. My friends over there will take care of those meany goblins and then we'll get you home safe."

Harmony tries to pick the lock using Dex+Thieves Tools proficiency: 16

Sarris Dex Save: 8

(Harmony manages to hit Sarris with her Sacred Flame! The Bugbear's fur is smoldering. She rushes over to the cage where Bess is, comforts her, then picks the lock to free her!)

Lucius Death Saving Throw #1: 15

(Sarris lets out a huge roar and decides to take a swing of his Warhammer on Ravenath!)

Attack: 19 Damage: 4

(Ravenath manages to turn his body, but still takes a blow to the left shoulder. He's hurt, but it could have been worse. With a surge of Adrenaline, he tries to counter attack the Bugbear!)

Attack: 23 Damage: 8

(Ravenath's Longsword finds its mark, and slashes Sarris across the chest! Blood starts dripping out of Sarris, that hurt him pretty badly.)

Roscoe, you're up!

Roscoe does his classic two punches at the bugbear.

Attack 1: Attack: 10 Damage: 6 + Blessing: 2

Attack 2: Attack: 13 Damage: 4 + Blessing: 1

OOC: Sorry Roscoe, you don't have the Blessing. Also, it would have been to the attack roll, not the damage.

(Roscoe darts in and attacks the Bugbear with his speedy punches. Sarris manages to block the first shot, but takes a Spinning Backfist full force on his face with the second attack! Wow, that looked like it hurt.

Meanwhile, the other 2 patrol Goblins are running towards your position, and are now almost halfway across the bridge. They will be here by the end of the next turn.)

Harmony, you're up.

Harmony whispers to Bess, "Stay near me and I will get you out of here." Turning around, she rushes over to the bridge the goblin guards are on. Digging into the well of her own innate power, and hoping for a little bit of luck, she belts out an echoing threat to stop the would-be attackers in their tracks.

Harmony casts Thaumaturgy to increase the volume of her voice three fold and plants her staff hard on the stone of the bridge. "STOP! ONE MORE STEP AND I'LL COLLAPSE THIS BRIDGE AND YOU WITH IT!"

Harmony's Intimidation roll: 6

((I am so angry with this number generator.....))

DMs note: I'm sorry, Harmony. What lousy luck with the dice rolls...

(Harmony tries to intimidate the Goblins coming across the bridge into stopping, and they do... for about 5 seconds. Then they start to make their way across... but, suddenly, the Scythe appears again! It seems that both of the Goblins standing on the pressure plate for that long at the same time was just enough to trigger the trap!)

Goblin Dex Saves: 15

Damage: 5

(The Goblins jump out of the way, but still take a good amount of damage!)

Lucius Death Saving Throw: 3 

2 Successes - 0 Failures

The Bugbear lets out another roar, this time taking another shot at Ravenath.

Attack: 10 Damage: 9

 (The Warhammer connects to the face of Ravenath, and he's down as well! 

Then, something unexpected happens. Bess, who has been standing close to Harmony, suddenly breaks free from her and runs across the bridge towards the Goblins on the bridge, screaming!)

"You hurt me, you meanies!"

(The Goblins are caught completely off guard, the stunned looks on their faces the last thing you all see as Bess pushes them off the bridge! They scream all the way down as they fall into the canyon.)

Roscoe, you're up.
