[D&D 5E] The Crown of Charon - The Eviscerator

Matev

Go ahead and take the reroll Austin

The Molydeus seems unperturbed by the flames, but does snarl as the axe bites into it's rubbery pseudoflesh. The backswing just slides out as the amorphous monster pulls away, Brygos' axe finding air.

AustinP0027

Reroll with disadvantage?

Matev

Nope, choose 1 and reroll it

AustinP0027

Looking at char sheet more, I have reliable so anything under a 10 counts as a 10 since I am proficient.

So that means I got a 21, because the 9 becomes a 10.
Geth, roll 1d20+11 for Acrobatics

Acrobatics:

1d20+11 30 [1d20=19]

AustinP0027

Sy

Sy thought for a minute he slipped and was falling into whatever it was that was below them, but somehow he recovered.

He slid up onto the bone pile that Lorian and Brygos were already on, and found an opening to thrust his rapier at the Demon.



Geth, roll 1d20+11 for Attack Hit
Geth, roll 1d8+6 for Rapier Dmg

I don't know rogues, so does Sneak Attack get it too?

If so....

Yes, the crit doubles everything.

AustinP0027

66 dmg.

Rogues are fun!

Matev

It's actually a bit more than that, remember.....

ACTIVATE MUTATOR: KNEE DEEP IN THE DEAD

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7lvrg4yzAc

Total Rogue Damage with Sneak Attack: 78 (14 Max Rapier plus 42 Max sneak attack plus 9 rapier plus 23 sneak attack)

***

The Moldyeus is struck, rivulets of gore spreading in it's innards as several organs are pierced by Sy's sharp wit. Crimson liquid flows from it's mouth as a sigil glows on one of it's paws. It swings the improbably big axe at Sy

Geth, roll 1d20+9 for Cold Iron Greataxe attack
On hit, Sy will take 18 slashing damage and must make a DC 16 Constitution Save or be knocked into the muck.

The sigil on the Molydeus' hand appears on the ground, larger, pulsing. With a crack of air rushing in all directions, a large monster appears.



It immediately leaps at Brygos, clawing and biting with it's massive, bloated claws and gaping maw.

Geth, roll 2d20k1+7 for Hezrou Claw
On hit, Brygos takes 11 slashing damage
Geth, roll 2d20k1+7 for Hezrou Claw
On hit, Brygos takes 11 slashing damage
Geth, roll 2d20k1+7 for Hezrou Bite
On hit, Brygos takes 15 piercing damage


As Azara starts to react to the fight erupting, they find themselves tangled in the jellyfish tendrils and the unearthly smell of the Hezrou forcing them to retch.

After resolving these, it will be Azara's turn, and they will need to make a DC 14 Consitution Saving throw and a DC 14 Dexterity Throw. Failing the Consitution save will cause the Poisoned status effect, failing the Dexterity save will inflict 10 lightning damage and dazed status.

Cold Iron Greataxe attack:

1d20+9 26 [1d20=17]

Hezrou Claw:

2d20k1+7 11 [2d20k1=[4], 1]

@The Brayster 's turn once they've got a moment

The Brayster

I'll start with the saves and work on from there.

Geth, roll 1d20+1 for Constitution Saving Throw

Geth, roll 1d20+10 for Dexterity Saving Throw

Constitution Saving Throw:

1d20+1 21 [1d20=20]

Dexterity Saving Throw:

1d20+10 27 [1d20=17]

The Brayster

Azara recoils momuntarily from the foulness. Noting where she had landed, however, she realized she didn't have time to get caught out and instead shifts herself just out of reach of danger.

Azara gestures at the two creatures, and the tattoo on her shoulder begins to heat up.

(Azara casts Blindness/Deafness at 3rd level, with an intent to blind both creatures)

Blindness/Deafness

You can blind or deafen a foe. Choose one creature that you can see within range to make a Constitution saving throw (Con 17). If it fails, the target is either blinded or deafened (your choice) for the duration. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make a Constitution saving throw. On a success, the spell ends.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 2nd.

In the same motion, Azara begind beating her breastplate again once more.

(Azara uses Bardic Inspiration on Sy)

Bardic Inspiration

As a bonus action, a creature (other than yourself) within 60 ft. that can hear you gains an inspiration die (1d10). For 10 minutes, the creature can add it to one ability check, attack roll, or saving throw. This can be added after seeing the roll, but before knowing the outcome.

fadingathedges

Thane raises his warhammer high and slams the butt into the ground, sending out a pulse of silver light. The brackish water seems to recoil, as if momentarily pressed and shrinking down away from it.

Azara, Brygos, and Sy are Blessed. Add 1d4 to attack rolls and saving throws.

@AustinP0027 if I read your rogue stuff correctly, you still have your Reaction, right? If so, I will use Voice of Authority on you. If not I will target Brygos instead.

Make an attack!

AustinP0027

Saving throw came before the Bardic inspiration, so don't want to cheese it and add that.

Geth, roll 1d20+3 for Con Save

Con Save:

1d20+3 7 [1d20=4]

AustinP0027

Sy is in the muck, so he wouldn't be in range to attack. Voice of Authority on Brygos.

Also, Sy will use his reaction instead for Uncanny Dodge, to reduce the 18 to 9pts of dmg.

Bursar

I would like to know if either / both of the enemies are Blinded so that my attack would have advantage.

Matev

All right, let's collapse some waveforms!

Sy lands in the River Phlegethon! Sy takes 25 acid damage and is restrained!
You'll need to see about making a DC 15 Strength Check at the start of your turn to escape Austin

The demon's eyes begin to cloud as Azara's spell is cast

Geth, roll 2d20k1+2 for Molydeus Blind save
Geth, roll 2d20k1+5 for Hezrou Blind save

Molydeus Blind save:

2d20k1+2 9 [2d20k1=[7], 4]

Hezrou Blind save:

2d20k1+5 10 [2d20k1=[5], 3]

Bursar

Brygos
Reaction: Attack the blinded ... actually, it looks like @fadingathedges gets to choose the attack target. But Brygos is in melee range of both, so I'm just going to roll and they can decide which one.

Geth, roll 2d20k1+1d4+9 for Authorized Attack
Geth, roll 1d12+4 Greataxe Damage

Authorized Attack:

2d20k1+1d4+9 23 [2d20k1=[10], 8] [1d4=4]

Greataxe Damage:

1d12+4 13 [1d12=9]

Everyones favorite rogue is going to start rolling up a backup character soon.

Down to 14hp here

I'll heal you! You can heal people by stabbing them right? No? Oh

AustinP0027

It's back to you @kime

kime

Oh thanks!

Lady Lorian

On the surface of her mind, a little frustration bubbles up as her attacks failed to meaningfully connect with her enemy. But it fails to interrupt her concentration, deep in her Bladesong. She readies her blade again, and thrusts, this time aiming for it's tentacle-like legs. If it can't move, the monster will be easy prey.

Geth roll 1d20+10 for Rapier attack
Geth roll 1d8+5 for maybe Rapier damage

Then, as before, she enchants her blade with thunder magic and attacks again, hoping that the vibrating blade will tear apart its legs, or at least weaken their structure

Geth roll 1d20+10 for Booming Blade attack
Geth roll 1d8+5 for maybe second Rapier attack damage
Geth roll 2d8 for maybe Booming Blade thunder damage
Geth roll 3d8 for maybe thunder damage if it moves

@Bursar next, pending whether these attacks hit in case it changes anything you'd do.

Edit: oooo yeah look at all those 1's. Geth we are just not good friends huh?

Rapier attack:

1d20+10 27 [1d20=17]

maybe Rapier damage:

1d8+5 10 [1d8=5]

Booming Blade attack:

1d20+10 27 [1d20=17]

maybe second Rapier attack damage:

1d8+5 6 [1d8=1]

maybe Booming Blade thunder damage:

2d8 9 [2d8=4, 5]

maybe thunder damage if it moves:

3d8 6 [3d8=1, 1, 4]

Matev

Well, we were actually needing to figure out which Demon was being attacked cause it is pertinent. Next person can make the decision. Also at the start of Kime's turn, Lady Lorian also needs to make Dex and Con saves cause these demons are nasty customers

I thought there was only one with weird tentacle legs? The first one that was here.

[Edit: Ohh from the Reaction attack, right! I misunderstood what you meant and thought you meant me :P ]

Geth roll 1d20+4 for Con save
Geth roll 1d20+4 for Dex save

Edit: another 1!

Con save:

1d20+4 13 [1d20=9]

Dex save:

1d20+4 5 [1d20=1]

Well, since it's been a couple of days, can we assume Brygos's Authorized attack was at the Moldyeus, since that probably had everyone's attention at the time.

Matev

The Molydeus' serpent hisses as the demon is struck, the mass rearing and moving violently. The jellyfish tendrils sting Lorian as the Hezrou's stench makes her gag.

Lady Lorian is Dazed! She may only take movement, 1 action, or bonus action for this round!
Lady Lorian is Poisoned! All of her rolls have disadvantage for this round!

Go ahead and reassess your turn/reroll as necessary Kime

A mass bursts out of the Phlegethon, first one head, then 2, then 3..... 6 shimmering heads emerge and breath a cloud of screaming wraiths upon the party still engaged with the demons!

Geth, roll 1d20-1 for Six-Headed Magnetic Spirit-Touched Warforged Siege Hydra initiative
Brygos, Thane, and Lorian need to roll a Con save!

The thing's entire form seems to hum like an otherworldly choir.

Six-Headed Magnetic Spirit-Touched Warforged Siege Hydra initiative:

1d20-1 5 [1d20=6]

Bursar

Geth roll 1d20+11 for Brygos Con Save

Brygos Con Save:

1d20+11 14 [1d20=3]

kime

Geth roll 1d20+4 for Con save

Con save:

1d20+4 20 [1d20=16]

kime

Geth roll 1d20+10 for Rapier disadvantage attack (compared with the 27 I got the first time)
Geth roll 1d20+10 for the second one with Booming Blade (compared with 27 again actually)

So just take the lower of these rolls or 27 for each of my attacks. Everything else I rolled was just damage.

Edit: these are both lower, so yeah, these would be my attacks

Rapier disadvantage attack (compared with the 27 I got the first time):

1d20+10 24 [1d20=14]

the second one with Booming Blade (compared with 27 again actually):

1d20+10 13 [1d20=3]

AustinP0027

Is it back to me and is the jellyfish demon still alive?

May not matter if I can't escape this restrained

Bursar

I believe it's my go after kime, but I need to know what the results of my Con save are. If attacks will be at disadvantage or something else, it'll affect my rolls.

And I think @Matev was waiting for @fadingathedges for Thane's Con save before telling us what the outcome is?

fadingathedges

Geth roll 1d20+9 for Con Save!

Con Save!:

1d20+9 25 [1d20=16]

Matev

The wraiths swarm over the heroes engaged in melee, Brygos in particular finds himself pressed as the dead rip and tear at the corporeal form he possesses here.

Brygos takes 33 Necrotic damage! Thane and Lorian take 16 Necrotic damage!

Sickened by the Hezerou's foulness and limbs responding erratically after being stung by tentacles, Lorian's first attack still finds it's mark, the Molydeus howling and swaying unsteadily as her 2nd, magically empowered attack misses the mark when her sword arm seizes from the currents running through it.

It's @Bursar 's turn next! Dex and Con saves please! Then we'll see if Sy can escape the Phlegethon

Bursar

Good gosh in the underworld!

Geth roll 2d20k1+2 for Brygos Dex Save!
Geth roll 1d20+11 for Brygos Con Save!

Brygos Dex Save!:

2d20k1+2 10 [2d20k1=[8], 3]

Brygos Con Save!:

1d20+11 24 [1d20=13]

Matev

Brygos screws up his face, and soldiers through the Hezrou's stench. The Molydeus' jellyfish stingers however, have no chill.

Brygos is dazed! He may only take one of his Action, Movement, or Bonus action

fadingathedges

Brygos remember you are Blessed so +1d4 to saves and attacks.

Bursar

Oh! Would 4 more help with that dex save?
Geth roll 1d4 for Dex Blessing

Let's keep hacking away at the Molydeus. These tentacles are no joke!

Geth roll 2d20k1+1d4+9 for Reckless Attack 1
Geth roll 1d12+7 for Greataxe Damage 1
Geth roll 2d20k1+1d4+9 for Reckless Attack 2
Geth roll 1d12+7 for Greataxe Damage 2

Dex Blessing:

1d4 1 [1d4=1]

Reckless Attack 1:

2d20k1+1d4+9 26 [2d20k1=[16], 3] [1d4=1]

Greataxe Damage 1:

1d12+7 19 [1d12=12]

Reckless Attack 2:

2d20k1+1d4+9 19 [2d20k1=[9], 9] [1d4=1]

Greataxe Damage 2:

1d12+7 15 [1d12=8]

Bursar

Yikes, the D4 hates me.
Good luck, @AustinP0027 .

Matev

Brygos, enraged, chops at the Molydeus until it stops moving, it's mass nothing but a quivering pile of jelly and dead meat.

Let's see that Strength check Austin. (Not a save!)
