OOC:
Can I say retroactively that at some point Wish has claimed one of the red cloaks for his disguise?
Wish looks at the rest of the group, and, when everyone else gives the nod that they're ready, he'll barge in the door to the south like he owns the place.

Wish dons his red cloak and opens the door like he owns the place. He realizes all of his bravado is for naught as there are four severely drunken men in here who just look up for a moment before returning the their game of dice, "You wan' join in? 2 copper buy-in!" one of them shouts.
Feb 20, 2016 1:14 am
Kama grins, shouldering his way forward. "2 copper! Think we can take 'em?" he says over-enthusiastically with a wink. He sounds like he's thinking of the game, but his expression to each of the party is cold.

Wish gives a plum chuckle, both in response to Kama's remark and to the fact that these guys aren't even curious about four such obviously inhuman interlopers. :::These guys are so dim, they deserve what's coming to them.::: He crosses over to join Kama in flanking one of the drunks, then also nods to Hollow. :::Milady, would you care to start the festivities, or shall we leave that to Xora? We'll follow your lead...:::

To stall for time and to keep them distracted, Wish will pull out 8 coppers and toss them down. "That's for each of us. Who goes first?"
OOC:
Are they at a table, or crouching on the floor, or what?

The thugs, sitting at a table playing dice barely respond besides to scoop up the coins, "I'll go first," the one on the opposite side of the table says. He picks up the dice and rolls (very well) and the rest of the men groan.

Hollow moves into the room but keeps back, watching, not joining the gambling. She lets a few rolls happen, then unleashes her signature spell, eldritch blast, at the first gambler.

Rolls

Eldritch blast vs. Redbrand - (1d20+6)

(5) + 6 = 11

damage if that hit - (1d10+4)

(5) + 4 = 9

OOC:
He'll be OK; you just singed him a little...!

The way I envision it, the first gambler is the one who rolled first, across the table from Kama and Wish, correct? Then let's say they're clockwise from him (R1), R2, R3 (with Wish on one side and Kama on the other), and then R4? That would mean that Wish and Kama are in between R2 & R3 or R3 and R4, depending on which side we took. Assuming that's OK, then...
Wish draws and attacks R3 to incapacitate, not kill (non-lethal damage).
OOC:
I am engaging with a target who will be in melee range of another target, but does that provide advantage for attacks when combat begins, or only once we've actually engaged them? If ADV doesn't apply, just use my first roll and ignore the Sneak Attack damage.

Rolls

Rapier attack on R3, base damage - (1d20+5, 1d8+3)

1d20+5 : (19) + 5 = 24

1d8+3 : (1) + 3 = 4

Rapier ADV attack roll on R3, sneak attack damage - (1d20+5, 2d6)

1d20+5 : (2) + 5 = 7

2d6 : (14) = 5

Feb 22, 2016 6:44 pm
"That's cheating!" roars Kama as the attacks commence. He brings his maul up and over his head, aiming for the back of Redbrand2 with the intent of smashing him into the table. The half-orc strikes to subdue, remembering his self-administered oath to capture as many as he can.

Rolls

Maul vs Redbrand2, Damage - (1d20+5, 2d6+3)

1d20+5 : (6) + 5 = 11

2d6+3 : (56) + 3 = 14

Feb 23, 2016 5:17 pm
The thugs that you hit all go down with little trouble, leaving the one sitting there confused as to what's going on. He looks at all of you in turn quickly. All the looking around makes him vomit and he falls to the floor, passed out.
OOC:
All 4 thugs are unconcious
Suddenly there is a large growl and a bang as the door crashes open to reveal the meanest Bugbear you've seen in a long time. Oddly enough he has a jeweled eyepatch fitted badly over one eye (which appears to be a functioning eye). You can see at least two other bugbears behind this one. The one in the back shouts, "Wait dere Droop, we be back!" They each are carrying a rather large morningstar.
OOC:
Party goes first!

Rolls

Party Init - (1d20+1, 1d20+2, 1d20+3, 1d20+3)

1d20+1 : (5) + 1 = 6

1d20+2 : (20) + 2 = 22

1d20+3 : (17) + 3 = 20

1d20+3 : (16) + 3 = 19

Enemy Init - (1d20+2)

(12) + 2 = 14

Feb 23, 2016 5:36 pm
Kama rushes forward, trying to keep the bugbears pinned in the doorway so they cannot flank the rest of the party. He drives his maul at the eyepatch-bugbear's abdomen hoping to get his opponent to double over, and with a surge of action lifts the head of the maul in an uppercut for the head.

Rolls

Maul vs Eyepatch - (1d20+5, 2d6+3)

1d20+5 : (15) + 5 = 20

2d6+3 : (55) + 3 = 13

Action Surge, Maul vs Eyepatch - (1d20+5, 2d6+3)

1d20+5 : (19) + 5 = 24

2d6+3 : (53) + 3 = 11

Feb 23, 2016 7:55 pm
Kama's furious assault catches Eyepatch off guard and he is hit first in the stomach with the maul and then with a vicious uppercut to the chin staggers him backwards. He somehow manages to keep his feet, but when he looks at you with hate you can see he is missing numerous teeth and his jaw hangs down loosely, obviously broken.
OOC:
Eyepatch (B1): Severely Wounded 3/27
Feb 24, 2016 12:19 am
Flashing back to the last bugbear she encountered, Hollow attempts to end the one with the eyepatch quickly, as Kama requested, before the others get behind them. "Cthul'ta'fan!!!"

Rolls

Eldritch Blast vs. Eye patch bugbear - (1d20+6, 1d10+4)

1d20+6 : (9) + 6 = 15

1d10+4 : (7) + 4 = 11

Feb 24, 2016 2:00 am
Hollow's attack sizzles into Eyepatch's chest. He looks down in disbelief at the massive hole in his chest before toppling forward into the room.
OOC:
Eyepatch is dead, nooooo!
Feb 24, 2016 5:41 pm
Rushing to stand to one side of the southern door, Wish will attack the first of the remaining two bugbears to step into the room.
OOC:
I don't think this will result in flanking, but hope springs eternal and I'm rolling the sneak attack damage just in case the bugbear engages with Kama.

Rolls

Rapier lunge, damage, sneak attack damage - (1d20+5, 1d8+3, 2d6)

1d20+5 : (18) + 5 = 23

1d8+3 : (8) + 3 = 11

2d6 : (13) = 4

Feb 24, 2016 6:25 pm
I keep to the back with an arrow pointed towards the door, waiting for sign of any other bugbears coming through.
Feb 24, 2016 7:07 pm
B2 steps over the body of Eyepatch and tries to shove Kama out of the way when suddenly Xora releases her shot and hits him in the chest (5 damage). He roars but manages to shove Kama back, and in so doing exposes his back to Wish's rapier. Wish wastes no time and plunges his blade into B2's back (15 damage), causing him to howl in pain again.

B3 steps through the gap left when B2 pushed Kama out of the way and attacks Kama. Even off balance Kama manages to deflect B3's swing.
OOC:
Eyepatch is dead
B2 has taken 20 damage and is in some serious pain
B3 is unharmed

Round 1 over. Player turn!

Rolls

Xora reaction attack on B2 - (1d20+5, 1d8+3)

1d20+5 : (10) + 5 = 15

1d8+3 : (2) + 3 = 5

B2 shove - (1d20+2)

(14) + 2 = 16

Kama resist shove - (1d20+5)

(10) + 5 = 15

B3 attack on Kama - (1d20+4)

(8) + 4 = 12

Feb 24, 2016 8:20 pm
Kama seeks to eliminate the threats as quickly as possible, reasoning that a dead bugbear cannot make any attacks. As he recovers from Bugbear2's push, Kama twists his maul to swipe across the monster's ribcage.

Rolls

Maul vs Bugbear2 - (1d20+5, 2d6+3)

1d20+5 : (2) + 5 = 7

2d6+3 : (36) + 3 = 12

Feb 24, 2016 8:26 pm
Wish calls out to his companions: "Nice shot, Xora!" and "Good one, Kama!" while dancing around, waving his rapier threateningly while looking for a good spot to lunge in again. Aha! There's his opportunity! (he thinks)

B2 is quicker than he appears, deftly blocking Kama's wild swing and turning away from Wish's strike, causing it to deflect off of his armor.
Feb 26, 2016 5:21 am
Trying to capitalize on he allies efforts, Hollow unleashes another Eldritch Blast, this one aimed at B2, hoing to take him down. "Cthul'fa'tan!!!"

Eldritch Blast vs B2 - (1d20+6, 1d10+4)
