Gimdrus ashamed for the dancing the foul creature made him to perform take opportunity of Anne speaking to the creature to approach if from the back and suddenly jump on it trying to knock prone
OOC:
Should I roll initiative to try to knock it prone or can I just roll my Strength (Athletics) check contested by creature?
[ +- ] Shoving a Creature
Using the Attack action, you can make a special melee attack to shove a creature, either to knock it prone or push it away from you.
The target must be no more than one size larger than you and must be within your reach. Instead of making an attack roll, you make a Strength (Athletics) check contested by the target’s Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check (the target chooses the ability to use)
