D&D 5E [IC] Adventures in Ashwell: The Edge of Dispater

Creamsteak · Jun 5, 2017

As you exit the trap door and emerge into the manor you find yourself confronted, silently, by six figures wearing bovine skull masks and tattered grey robes. They are wielding crude clubs and have no light sources among them.

OOC:

These particular foes have an initiative of 5. If you roll higher you can take an action before they get to act. Up to you if you think it's worth trying to talk to them, they were almost all silently just standing here as you started to come up.

Raghnall steps forward axe and shield in hand he doubts that these people want to talk

Kilvo glares at this man he doesn't really know giving him the tongue-lashing. When he's finished with the rant, the dwarf calmly steps forward and glares hard. "Aye. And ye'd be best off rememberin' those words yerself."

"Don't bother to threaten me, I'm not some village shmuck that will be impressed by that thing. Yes, it is dangerous. And clever. Good work. That doesn't mean everything is a target. We need to work together in this dangerous area. I know we don't know each other and our various habbits and abilities. I worried for Thael, so I apologize for ranting at you. Because I was wrong, not because your threat. Lets resolve to cooperate now and discuss our differences later. Deal?" he offers the hand to the dwarf. In comparison to the dwarves working hand, his is almost dainty. But signs of active life and
dangerous work are still felt.

As they rested, he looked over the girl and put her next to the boy. Maybe they help each other. As they come out, he keeps close to the children.

AFTER THE REST

Ersarkess curses inside that they were ambushed like this. But at least the creatures let them come out in peace. Maybe there is some chance of negotiation. And the dwarf didn't start shooting immediately, which is also a plus.
"Lets see what can we do here." he thinks as he steps forward.

"Hello, fellow explorers. We opened the way for you. And we found what we came for..." he motions toward the children. "We'll be on our way if you'd be so kind and move aside."

"Raghnall, if they attack, don't hold back. We have kids to protect." Ersarkess add in barbarian language since this one doesn't follow the conversation.

[sblock=Actions]
Move: to FU 88
Free: Talky talky
Action: Ready to throw faerie fire on the northernmost three things if they get hostile (or if they move in such way he can take more than 3, by all means

)

apologies, here is the initiative roll: [roll0]

Thael quietly moves to the stairs to cover the party's back

OOC:

move to fy83. Thael draws his xbow and stands ready to shoot at any sign of agression

Creamsteak · Jun 6, 2017

The creatures sort of creek and rattle to attention, look to one another, and then scream and growl (scrowl?) as they rush the nearest targets flailing their claws and clubs.

The faerie fire goes off effecting two creatures. Thael's crossbow bolt hits one of the such irradiated ghouls for 5 damage.

Raghnall avoids his aggressors and retaliates against them hitting the same one struck by a crossbow bolt (darker pink).

One attack barely misses Kilvo.

Parties turn.

Azurewraith · Jun 6, 2017

Raghnall resets his stance and quickly assesses the battle field he seems to have the lions share of them focused on him. The dwarf however may be in trouble.
Raghnall swings at the foe he had all ready struck by his shield.
