Yoth will watch as well, knowing that he is not really geared for stealthy movement.
Apr 22, 2022 5:52 am
Mal loudly ans slowly proceed throgh the water partially swimming partially taking steps in the deep water. The tall Bugbear is not fully in water, but water still slows down his movement. When he reach the corner and could look over it he spots large creature moving his way. Creature is mostly in water but based on pincers it should be crab of enormous size 
Everyone but Anguis roll imitative. Anguis is in part A - too far away to take care. He will not hear you screaming to join battle due to sound made by the chest
Thorem mechanically is surprised, but it reflects his mental state not being interested in any water exploration
A short situation description:
Mal is 15 feet from stairs up and stairs are 30 feet high with partially trap doors on ceiling.
Enemy is 30 feet from him and from 20-25 stairs
Yoth and Bellow is 50 feet away from Mal on the edge of water, they don't see the enemy yet but hear see Mal's reaction and waves in the water.
Thorem is 15 more feet away and suprised
Everyone but Yoth has 1/2 speed in the water. But no checks required to move/swim.
Monster size is large meaning his vertical size is 10 feet, if you move 10 feet upwards you are still in 5 feet from him. Only moving at least 15 feet upwards will count as beeing 10 feet from large sized enemy

As the battle begins Anguis gets rid of stress and begins to ponder, trying to distract himself from the noisy chests...why hell hounds were created, aren't they literally meant for someone like me? What am I supposed to do with you? Killing you would be a damn loss without a fight...
He pets the hounds head and attempts to remember anything that could help him with getting the hound fully on his side.

[ +- ] Meanwhile Anguis recalls following
Monstrous, fire-breathing fiends that take the form of powerful dogs, hell hounds are found on the battlefields of Acheron and throughout the Lower Planes. On the Material Plane, hell hounds are most commonly seen in service to devils, fire giants, and other evil creatures that use them as guard animals and companions.
Burning Hunger. Hell hounds hunt in packs, feeding on any creature that appears edible. They avoid potentially dangerous foes in favor of targeting the weakest prey with their savage bite and fiery breath, demonstrating a relentless determination as they pursue that prey to the bitter end.
When hell hounds feed, the flesh they consume stokes the infernal fires that burn within them. When a hell hound dies, that fire consumes the creature’s remains in a billowing eruption of smoke and blazing embers, leaving nothing behind but scorched tufts of black fur.
Evil to the Core. Hell hounds are smarter than mundane beasts, and their lawful nature makes them good at following orders. However, a hell hound’s evil disposition means that the creature can’t be trained to be anything other than a ruthless killer. If a hell hound isn’t allowed to indulge its malevolent hunger, it quickly abandons or turns against its master

Creature that Mal called Crab moves toward Mal causing significant waver (Mal spot fish like tale of this monster that helps him to move fast in water) and the creature stops 10 feet away from Mal and use it's both Pincers to attack Mal . One pincer is reflected by armor, but other hit Mal, grappling him. Monster's squid-like head descends from water and it attack Mal with his tentacle - Mal

Mal have to do DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. Until this poison ends, the target is paralyzed. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.OOC:

In the next round of Anguis is still out of combat he will attempt to feed the hound the pumpkin treat he made previously.

Anguis don't need to wait for battle turns to make out of combat actions. You soon discover that hellhound is not interested in consuming the threat, unless you force it it consume it - in that case it will consume the treat. P.S. I haven't found any detailed ruling on this only opinions and the opinion about fiends I leat to agree with is this:
Quote:
I always figured they didn't need to eat or drink or breathe...except the flesh and blood of mortals is so tasty, and the fear generated by someone about to be eaten alive has a scent that excites the dark denizens...also they don't only consume the flesh, they consume at least some part of the soul which is their sustenance.Apr 24, 2022 7:01 pm
OOC:
Since it is Sunday I'm waiting another 24 hours for you combat turns. Mal - con save at the end of round 1 action
Yoth - round 1 action
Bellow - you could still adjust your turn as you want. You see Mal grappled by monstrosity and it plan to get away with him

Sorry for the delay in posting.OOC:
Move: Move 30 feet towards Mal. Should place him 20 feet from Mal, 40 feet from Monster, and probably a few feet from Bellow.Action: Cast Bless with a 1st level spell slot on Mal, Bellow, and himself (range: targets within 30').
