Thoruk tries to climb out of the painting, and realises that there is a transparent leather wall in front of him—seemingly the painting’s canvas. He breaks through, and tumbles out onto the floor.
Thoruk attempts to pass it off with a roll, but doesn't do so smoothly - he tumbles, gets up, brushes himself off, then crouches down and does an ungainly roll. He is convinced it looked cool.
Thoruk then moves towards Mendigo and, if he makes it there, picks him up and shouts "Jerry, Stop!".
As you pick up Mendigo, you start to hear high pitched laughter. You ask the others what the sound is, but they don’t seem to be able to hear it. You then see Mendigo crawl up your arm, and into your ear! Your brain goes numb, and then your body starts changing— your facial features are disappearing, your body feels like it is being burned alive, your limbs and neck are becoming that of a puppet, all whilst your body is changing to a dark wood. Then, your face sets on fire, and the flames spread all down your body, making your wooden body heavily scorched. Your face is the most scorched, oddly in the shape of a smiling face. Finally small golden eyelets appear all over your body, near your joints. Thoruk has turned into Mendigo!
edit: If you want to play as him he has three attacks—firebomb, [to hit +3 damage 1d4x1d8 fire damage] dagger, and unarmed strike (you probably know the stats for the last two)—and 37 HP. His spells are: (cantrip) mage armour, false life, create bonfire, control flames, eldritch blast, poison spray, thunderclap, (1st lvl) charm person, command, hellish rebuke, (2nd lvl) scorching ray, suggestion, (3rd lvl) fireball, hypnotic pattern.
I think it’s Helmut, who is currently still in the painting you two were in. Oh and forgot to say, you are Mendigo now. So… you probably are gonna be fighting the others now, rather than Jerry.

This is such a weird room. As a side note, Raven(currently 60 feet in the air and rising) seems uninterested in this fight.(I'm stating that now, he's in the initiative but doesn't seem like part of the fight, before Jerry or Mendigo attack him)

huh. I am going to have some fun with what Thoruk thinks he's doing compared with what Mendigo is doing here...
(as a side note, I found much earlier in the thread that when you go to initiative it makes the combat go very slowly, as everyone is in different time zones and those not sequentially, so it can take over a day to get one round in. I went instead for a more loose "you ech get to do one thing after the monster does stuff, after which it's the monster's turn again", it seemed to go quicker - feel free to proceed either way!)

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
George, seeing Thoruk pick up Jerry's firebombs and climb through the painting... will misty step out of the painting and cast poison spray (DC 12 Con save) at Jerry for 9 poison damage.
(I would have cast a more powerful spell, but I already cast a leveled spell this turn.)
Well, Kay just attacked him, so I think you guys are assuming he’s hostile. He would be angry that Kay attacked him anyway.
Yeah, since Jerry didn't come back when Alexander did, Kay thinks he is a ghost or someone posing as Jerry.
Kay glares at Jerry, trying to figure out exactly what he is. Then she looks around and sees Thoruk suddenly catch on fire and turn into Mendigo. "What the?! Thoruk!" She growls. She is now convinced that there is dark magic at work here. Still inside the painting, she looks around.

We are Jerry! Wait a minute, wrong thread.

She then pulls out her crossbow and readies an action. If Jerry proves himself hostile by attacking, she will shoot. (When/if that happens it will be: 8 to attack, 11 damage.
Thoruk will look around the strange new place he is now. Suspecting there may be ducks involved, he will reach into his bag and pull out a piece of bread, then throw it onto the ground he sees in front of him to see if any ducks are tempted out to be slain.
In the real world, Mendigo reaches to his hip, pulls out a firebomb, and gently throws it into the middle of the room! (DM, over to you on how this goes)

Thoruk will try to climb out of the painting, if possible. If not, then I don't think there's much the Thoruk can do right now, so next person!

Okay. Raven will go down to 35 feet off the ground and just stay there, watching the combat.
