Lightning bolt is a line, so if there is only sky behind your target, no problem. At that moment you have no target, of course.

I mixed up Rubys and Hehsh's perception rolls. Let's say Ruby happened to be closest, but Hehsh saw what she did as well.

Hasan will pop the corner to see who/what made the scream. He believes his crossbow may be ineffective in this weather. He draws his scimitar as he turns.

try to keep your back to a wall. Call out if you see anything.
He activates the staff and scans the sky.

As you camper close to the wall, a form lurches out of the sky, hovers to get its bearings and then dives for Ruby.
Everyone beat its initiative so you can act before it attacks Ruby.

Hehsh slams his staff into the ground with a thud. The the static energy generated by the storm bursts into the arcane focus and channels into Hehsh. Sparks erupt between his fingers as he reaches his hand out towards the spectre.

Is it within range of melee, or does it need to swoop at Ruby first?Last edited December 14, 2019 6:31 am

Melee attacks can be made as it gets close enough to strike at Ruby on its turn. You can make those attacks now.

Mavis strides to strike alongside Ruby.
If this thing hasn’t taken a turn in combat then Mavis will have adv to hit.
If Ruby is engaged in melee then I’ll get to sneak attack too.
Then there’s the off hand attack too.
Sorry that there’s so many "if"s.
Edit: looking at the rolls the advantage on to hit is irrelevant.
If a 16 hits then it’s 19 piercing dmg (18 magical).
If 16 misses but 25 hits it’s 18 magical piercing.
OOC:
Ruby has a higher initiative the Mavis and will get adv to hit thanks to Gareth’s guiding bolt.If this thing hasn’t taken a turn in combat then Mavis will have adv to hit.

Eh', I'm not gonna get upset over Mavis taking the advantage, only applies to one attack I think.OOC:
You know what would be really cool? If the flying creature instead plummeted to the ground due to a sudden case of being stunned. Burning 1 KiEDIT: I'm assuming Adam is right (never actually played a rogue) and I get the guiding bolt advantage.

Added to my last post, thanks for the clarification Mavis@optimum I hadn't really thought it over, I suppose standardish halfling weight, maybe 33 pounds.

Whenever it is my turn again I am going to cast Spirit Guardian and mark my team as safe.Angelic figures start dancing around the party. They do no harm to us.
[ +- ] spell
Level 3
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self (15-foot radius)
Components: V, S, M (a holy symbol)
Duration: Concentration, up to 10 minutes
You call forth spirits to protect you. They flit around you to a distance of 15 feet for the duration. If you are good or neutral, their spectral form appears angelic or fey (your choice). If you are evil, they appear fiendish.
When you cast this spell, you can designate any number of creatures you can see to be unaffected by it. An affected creature's speed is halved in the area, and when the creature enters the area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 3d8 radiant damage (if you are good or neutral) or 3d8 necrotic damage (if you are evil). On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage.
