Alfrey turns his head to see the demonic form emerge from the well. "Bahamut , preserve me! he says, half in prayer and half in exclamation. His gaze focuses on Kaa, standing at the edge of the well. As the wounded barbarian looks up at the fiery figure hovering above, his massive bugbear form seems somehow not so large anymore. Alfrey’s holy symbol glows as he calls on his god, and divine healing energy flows through the cleric.
OOC:
I’m using Channel Divinity - Preserve Life. I’ve got 10 hp to give out, so I want to give Kaa the maximum I can — enough to restore him to half his total — then give the rest to the dying Night Blade. That is, unless another party member drops below half hp between now and my turn.

OOC:
Wait, when did NB2 become unconscious? I thought he was just knocked down. Was that a mistake, or did I miss something?
Apr 15, 2021 8:54 am
OOC:
Since Kaa's weapons are still with Alfrey he got himself into a tricky situation, but the healing helps a lot! 23-16-2+7 puts him at 12 hit points currently.

Would his long-reach be applicable to grab his axe from where he stands? Would it be an action or bonus action? If it is out of reach, he will just grab the scimitar from the knocked out nightblade next to him. I am also not sure how it got unconscious though.
Kaa is at first surprised at the new Gardren flying up, but then quickly looks for a tool to fight it with. He grabs the best weapon he can reach, and attacks his fiery foe with a grunt.
OOC:
I forgot I should be using my inspiration too eheh, is it too late to add? I know its fishy after I already saw the roll 😶
Edit 2: Not that it helps hahaha, o well it is fine if it is spent anyway.
Edit 3: healing is to half hp.

The tiefling does her jump but has her heel stuck in the chain mail, only for a split second, but that's enough for her to come spinning towards the ground. The landing is rough, she hits her knee pretty bad but is more or less alright. A large gold ring falls off her horn and rolls over the stone flooring, jumping a bit on every small bump, until it hits a black leather boot. Euphoria looks up, and looks the Night Blade right in the face, trying to predict their next move.
OOC:
I can't really act before the NB1 does so :>

OOC:
I was also unsure how the weapon handoff would work. But, if Alfrey needs to move over to Kaa, I can do that, since I'm not using the move action on my turn for anything else. If I get opportunity attacked, so be it.

Naeris strikes a mighty blow against the winged monster attacking her, dropping it to the ground in a bloody heap.

The final standing Night Blade loses his calm and runs for the door. The other lies on the ground, slowly bleeding out (1 failed death save).
OOC:
Euphoria, Naeris, and Alfrey can take a free weapon attack against NB1 as he runs away, if they wish.
Hilmar flings a fire bolt at the rising demon, singing it (2 damage).

Alfrey's healing power surges new life into Kaa! He tosses the axe to Kaa, who swings at the floating demon, but deflects the mighty strike with a shrug.

ROUND 3

✅A) Naeris

✅B) NB1 - AC: 12; 5 damage
✅B) NB2 - AC: 12; Unconscious, Prone
B) NB4 - AC: 12; 12 damage Unconscious, Dying (0/1)

✅C) Hilmar
✅C) Alfrey
✅C) Kaa
C) Euphoria; prone
C) Ralavaz

D) Gardren Reborn - AC: 15

Naeris lets the Night Blade go.

As the Night Blade runs for his life, Euphoria gets on her feet and turns around to look at the demon-possessed body. You should've kept that mask on, you big ugly!,- she laughs, but then gets serious again, when she sees how seemingly easily he deflects bugbear's mighty strike. She gets her whip ready and runs towards the middle of the room, stands slightly beside Kaa and tries to get the whip around the demon's neck to choke him and pull him into the floored part of the room so he won't be able to use his flying over the well to his advantage too much.
OOC:
Euphoria moves to J8!

So getting up costs half of the movement points, 30:2=15, so I'm left with 15 but then 15x2=30 because of Dash. Right?

Never thought my first nat ones would be two in a row! HAHAHAHA :D Expecting critical failure!

Hilmar feels bad about Night Blade 4 but cannot do anything to help while they have to fight the demon. He gets ready to hurl another firebolt.
OOC:
All being well he will do this in the next round.
It also crosses his mind that Night Blade 1 might bring back reinforcements, in particular the dwarves. He focuses on trying to defeat the demon.

in progress... DONE!

Euphoria lets her whip fly at Gardren and it wraps around his arm, but against his hellish flesh the leather cord catches on fire! Its tip burns away, leaving it half as long as it was before (the whip no longer has the finesse or reach properties. However, it does 1d4 fire damage in addition to the 1d4 slashing damage while it is on fire).

Tears streaking his eyes, Ralavaz advances forward and attacks the demon that wears his brother's flesh. The demon rebuffs him with ease. The demonic Gardren strikes back, and in his weakened state Ralavaz is no match for the demon's ferocity. (11 damage and Ralavaz falls unconscious)

Meanwhile, the Night Blade on the ground receives Alfrey's gift of healing! He immediately leaps to his feet and runs for the door, not even bothering to pick up his scimitar or pay thanks to Alfrey or his god.

ROUND 4

A) Naeris
A) Hilmar
A) Alfrey
A) Kaa
A) Euphoria; prone
A) Ralavaz - dying, prone (0/0)

B) Gardren Reborn - AC: 15, 2 damage

The demon bats Hilmar's firebolt out of the air with his sword!

With the demise of the stirge, Naeris puts the hunter's mark on the demon and, drawing her bow again, fires at them.

Kaa does not really pay attention to the running night blades, and just gives a quick glance at what the others are up to. He swirls his axe and hacks at Gardren again in his rage, determined to bring him down.

Euphoria gets up, throws the whip away in disappointment, gets her shiny silvery-looking rapier out of its sheath and rushes toward Gardren's animated carcass, and, using her best swordsmanship techniques, vigorously pokes at the demon with the pointy end.

Alfrey opts to keep his distance for the time being and calls down holy radiance again, hoping that Gardren will not be so nimble this time.

in progress... Done!

Naeris's arrow flies true, striking the demon in the face. It lets out a horrid scream that you will remember to the end of your days. (19 damage!)

Kaa's whirling axe strikes the demon in the side with a force that would have killed any mortal man. (14 damage!) The torches in the room explode in a burst of flame.

But the demon is not deterred. It intercepts Euphoria's blade and hisses. Next it sidesteps Alfrey's holy flame, wisely avoiding the damning power of Bahamut.

The demon lashes out at Euphoria and one of his blades manages to slip through her defenses (5 damage).

Meanwhile, Ralavaz slips closer to the grave. (fails first death save).

ROUND 5

A) Naeris
A) Hilmar
A) Alfrey
A) Kaa
A) Euphoria

Naeris is astonished that the body of Gardren still fights back. She's more determined to combat this terror.
OOC:
It looks like I forgot to mark inspiration on my character sheet. I can't find a roll since we got the inspiration where I used it so I'm using it here.
