Leth moves forward a bit (H7), stepping over the bodies of the dead wolves, and levels his bow at the nearest uncharmed wolf (W1).

Going out of town for a few days, probably won't be back until monday.

Leth advances and puts two arrows into one of the sleeping wolves. This one will never awaken.

The orcs caught within the wind wall move to the north and south trying to find a way out. Two of them manage to come around to the back of the wall on the north side, but the third remains caught near the bend at the south end of the wall. You can see the other orcs moving around to either side behind the wall, but they seem more cautious now, perhaps willing to use the wall for their own protection as they decide how to proceed from here.

New round. All party members may take a combat action.

Seeing Annganne stride ahead of everyone, Zangua hustles to catch up. "They're trying to flank us," he warns the gnome. "You'd better get back there with Leth."

He starts to move northward on the map, pointing out the group of orcs to the north as targets.
OOC:
Mobile, 40-feet movement to S5. Action, Dodge.

Domarc casts Fireball at Z14 on the map (should impact the 4 orcs, but not the charmed wolf if I have it right).

Flickering back into visibility, Domarc then moves to N11.
Quote:
Fireball - A bright streak flashes from your pointing finger to a point you choose within range then blossoms with a low roar into an explosion of flame. Each creature in a 20-foot radius must make a Dexterity saving throw. A target takes 8d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The fire spreads around corners. It ignites flammable objects in the area that aren’t being worn or carried.

Fireball damage - (8d6)

Mordred follows Zangua to the left flank and fires an arrow at one of the orcs moving past the edge of the Wind Wall.

King's Mordred to p5 (Move + Cunning Action Dash), arrow attack on o4.

ETA: Fireball! Now we're playing D&D!

Seeing Zangua charge towards the left flank, Felor briefly considers his options before a bright bloom of fire erupts on the right. Deciding to keep well clear of the pyrotechnics this time, he follows Zangua up the left flank, firing another golden bolt of energy from his spear tip as he does so.

*Casts Silent Image centered at S-16.*
Quote:
You create an image that is no larger than a 15-foot cube. The image appears at an unoccupied spot and lasts for the duration. The image is only visual. If anything passes through it, it's revealed to be an illusion.

You can use your action to cause the image to move to any spot in range. As the image changes location, you can alter its appearance so that its movements appear natural for the image.

A creature that uses its action to examine the image can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Investigation check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the creature can see through the image.
The image is of a field of large (2-5' diameter) rotating sea creatures and spinners, like so.

Mordred's arrow misses.

Three orcs are engulfed in the fireball; a fourth throws himself to the ground and survives the blast. The wind wall whips the smoke and flame back around to the north, spreading haze and embers before the party and throwing off Felor's aim -- his bolt of holy light misses its target.

Annganne conjures an image of swirling, kaleidoscopic ammonites and triskelions.

You back to take an action, Leth?

"These guys aren't leaving me with tons of options, here." Leth mumbles to himself as he strings up two more arrows at the only readily vulnerable orc.

Update tomorrow, y'all will have a new combat round and should be able to wrap up this fight.

Leth puts one arrow into the orc on the north side of the wall, who limps back toward his comrades.

You all see the orc that survived the fireball walk north through the blowing smoke. The charmed wolf runs in parallel alongside the outer curve of the wall, stopping to sniff at its sleeping packmate.

The rest of the orcs stay where they are at the northeast terminus of the wind wall, seemingly having a brief conference, and then one of them steps forward, throws down his weapons, and walks out in front of the wind wall, stopping about seven feet from Zangua. He holds his hands open at his sides and stares at Zangua expectantly.

Party members, you may take your actions.

"....Okay. That's different." Leth remarks as he nocks another arrow, but he keeps the bow lowered and doesn't draw the string back yet. He looks to Mordred and Domarc to see what they're going to do.
May 10, 2019 4:33 pm
Zangua sheathes his sword, but keeps his shield ready. "Surrendering?" he asks of the orc, briefly wondering if the creature understands the language.
OOC:
Ready action to draw longsword and attack if something threatening me comes into melee range.
