All Adventures are Local - Chapter 1

Nàdair, in the back of your mind a small hint of recognision lights up but before you can grasp it your whole mind is flooded with variations to the melody you've been playing.

OOC:

Do you want to do anything else this round? I'm going to count this check (as it's more like an instant small reaction thing) as a bonus action, so feel free to do more.

OOC:

Maighan, can you add the rolls for the attack, I'll incorporate them in the next post.

Adding attack rolls, boss!

EDIT: Oh, heck yeah. Adding an additional 1d8, assuming that's the rule here.

EDIT AGAIN: I have now used up all my good rolls. It was fun while it lasted. :)

EDIT ONCE MORE: Sneak attack added.

Roddric, you look around and for a few seconds it seems like everything around you seems to tell you their story: the way the empty streets seem the scream the lack of help in the form of guards, the warning bell high in the tower that hangs deadly silent, how Dairmuid and his children are slightly turned towards the Mayor's Mansion and the split second of longing in Dairmuid's eyes as he looks up at it. But most of all you see the utter lack of fighting spirit in the entire group, only Mönkhbat openly showing any sign of aggression. (Unfortunately this changes in a few seconds)

Mönkbat's greataxe whistles trough the air, crossing the necromancer's chest, slicing through cloth and flesh. Dairmuid gasps, his eyes growing dark with anger. He reaches out a bony hand, pressing the tip of a dirty finger to Mönkhbat's forehead, a shiver running from his toes up to the finger. But before he can even begin to cast his spell Maighan puts a hand on his shoulder and a blade in his exposed side, giving it a little twist. Dairmuid's mouth falls open in a painful cry, but a perfectly timed silence spell from Nàdair turns him into a living statue of hurt.

Suddenly all undead seem to turn much more evil, definitely more bitey. All their fury seems to be focused on Mönkhbat and Maighan, growling and snapping. Four try to get their rotting teeth into Maighan's arms and legs, while six try to do the same with Mönkhbat.

As Nàdair's strings become silent, she tries shouting something with no success. Furious, the elf puts the instrument away and grabs her dagger, slashing furiously in the air. "My dear necromancer" starts being spelled by Nàdair's frenetic movements. "I would like to suggest laying down your... dead, and buying that mountain of half-orc a beer". The massive letters hang, softly floating in the air, in particularly aberrant fluorescent colours!

Mönkhbat swings his axe twice at Dairmuid, the first time he misses, brought out of balance by his attempts to shake off the undead biters. The second finds purchase on the necromancer's chest again. Maighan also strikes out again, adding a second puncture to Dairmuid's side. She also speaks, but no sound comes out, though she seems quite angry.
Dairmuid looks like he screams in pain again, closing his eyes and therefore completely missing Nàdair's message. He turns right, pushing a medal hidden in the fuzz on his hat and where he is standing the air starts to shake, making his image blurry¹. After a second it stops, but by then the necromancer has moved a few feet in the direction of the mayor's mansion, but avoiding Roddric's web.
He hurriedly walks, mumbling something nobody can hear until he reaches the edge of the sphere of silence and Roddric can hear him say .. so sorry. I'm so sorry my children... He grabs Günther's arm, dragging him along while casting a spell and suddenly they're both gone in a flash of white light and an imploding sound. Then the same flash of light appears right outside the door of the mayor's mansion. Those paying attention can see Dairmuid appear and, with Günther right behind him, enter through the front door.

[ +- ] ¹

The same undead that attacked Mönkhbat and Maighan attack again, biting at anything they can, including Mönkhbat's "buns of steel".
Even though Nàdair didn't really hurt Dairmuid one of the undead snaps their teeth at her, confused by the dagger wielding. Roddric still is not being assaulted.

after some thought we decided that no matter how many bites hit you can only be infected once and only have to cure yourself once (per 24 hours).

Since Roddric is outside the silence, he will use Ray of Frost on the closest undead that is attacking either Maighan or Mönkhbat.

OOC:

How far away is Roddric from where mansion's front door? How long would it take Roddric to get there at a run? I'm thinking maybe I can draw some away if I attack and then next round run toward the mansion if that seems to make sense given the layout.

For attacks that hit, I will take the first damage rolls and ignore the damage rolls in !Advantage!, except for the critical hit which I've added. Let me know if I need to correct these results:

A hits 22 vs AC 14 for 2/2=1 piercing, 3 necrotic.
B hits 21 vs AC 14 for 2/2=1 piercing, 4 necrotic.
C critical hits for 4/2=2 piercing, 5 necrotic.
D hits 17 vs AC 14 for 2/2=1 piercing, CON save DC 12.
E hits 19 vs AC 14 for 1/2=0 piercing, CON save DC 12.
F hits 20 vs AC 14 for 3/2=1 piercing, CON save DC 12.

Mönkhbat curses something silently as his target disappears and he is swarmed by undead mouths.

In his pain and fury, he stumbles off in a random direction, potentially exposing himself to more zombie attacks!

"Wait! Where did he go?" Nàdair is so surprised with Dairmuid's trick that she drops the silence spell. "Oh! There he is. Why is he running to the mayor's mansion? ". Too distracted wondering about his intentions, she doesn't even notice the undead approach and trying to claw into her soft and shinny elven skin, treated only with natural oils extracted from the secret groves of the forest. She decides to leave combat, dashing after the necromancer.
