You are in a 40ft wide, 70ft long walled courtyard of what seems to be a palace, with two guards posted blocking you from the only visible door, the entrance to the palace. Lots of bushes and other shrubbery are scattered around, and patches of chest height grass is in a few spots. There is a sign next to you written in orcish.
"Thoruk, I presume you know Orcish?"

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Kay sneaks into a position from which she can shoot the guards.
Stealth 28
If she makes it she shoots the guard, that did not shoot Angelino with a lightning a lightning arrow. She will use assassinate to gain an automatic crit. I'm not sure how you guys do crits but my group usually roll damage twice and add it together. If you would rather double the damage just take the first roll for each damage type and add it together.

Damage 8 plus 6 plus lightning damage 5 plus 5
Edit: Wow critical fail on the stealth guess she's dead
Ok: The dragon and the coin was pretty obvious- dragons hoard gold, the Griffin was a little harder- you need an exotic saddle to ride a Griffin, the orc was very easy- orcs carry clubs, the goblin was quite hard- in dnd goblin bosses carry big sticks—usually with a possum skull on the end but I didn’t want to make it too easy, and finally the cyclops was hard, but easy if you know your Greek mythology- cyclopses are supposedly the children of Poseidon.
(I finally got to use my knowledge of Greek trivia for something lol)

You sneak towards the guards and one of them hears you. They ask “Is someone there?”.
When Alexander sees Angelino die and return, he says sympathetically, "My lord, perhaps it would be best if I am the first to enter new areas. It seems that everything in these rooms is out to kill us." He nods to the newcomer, "Welcome, friend. I am Alexander and I am at your service. Any aid you can offer would be welcome."
"I mean, I'm pretty sure there's a reason he's called a 'barbarian.'"

“Finally! Somewhere nice looking!” Angelino will go investigate the guards, I don’t think they’re real people.
"I'm probably gonna fireball them if they attack. Just to warn you."

The guards spot you and instantly shoot you. You die.
You fall from the sky and land at the beginning of the courtyard with the others, and your face and clothes get covered in mud.

Guess I'll just play off my bad roll!
Kay stops mid sneak to wave to the new comer. "Hi! The name's Kay! Short for Kayaws! Wanna help me take out these guards?"
She will then realize her mistake right before she dies (i assume)
but I'll leave that decision for the DM

“Hi do you need a hand here,” I gesture to the guards

Kay whispers in an angry tone to Ameros, "The enemy might hear you!"
Kay replies, "We are messengers. We have an urgent message for your superiors. But we need help. We are being followed!"

Since you blatantly exposed yourself to the guards, they spot you and instantly shoot you. You die.
You fall from the sky and land back at the beginning of the courtyard with the others, and your face and clothes get covered in mud.
