OOC:
Climbing is athletics not acrobatics but we can imagine you had rolled perception instead or something similar
Assuming the nature check from Chironides was part of the skill challenge, that is 1 success and 2 failures. You had a moment of almost being spotted, and then it seems you officially got spotted but you lost your pursuers. The next run it won't be so easy to evade.
OOC:
Isaiah and Omeros both need to attempt something. Nature, Athletics, and maybe Perception have been used. You might use History to recall how others have evaded such dragons, or survival to navigate the island, or Stealth to observe some of the worshipers of Hythonia on the island without them seeing you

A moment before stepping on the ground Isaiah pronounce magic words to hide party from unwanted attention.
Druid of Stars is excited to use his magic and skill to see the island and observe their pursuers
OOC:
Sorry, just noticed it was stated "a decent portion of the day to find". I will come up with different action shortly

Druid is carefully analyzing tracks and other evidence of animal recent behavior on the island to find any patters: animals should change their behavior closer to the dragon's nest or even totally avoid it.

Omeros hoofed it to different vantage points like a mountain goat, leaping as nimbly and carefully as he could, trying to get a greater lay of this cursed land.

OOC:
@annex one of the rules is no 2 players can use the same skill in the same round. Athletics was the first skill used. I'll let you keep the roll, but it has to be a different skill.
May 23, 2024 12:10 pm
The party surveys the local area and uses local wild life to narrow down their search. It seems the dragon had spotted them, but they have been lucky in evading it so far. As group continues, they continue to come across life-like statues of various men and women who turned to stone mid battle, none matching the princess's description.
OOC:
You may all go again. 3 success. 2 failure. Reminder: you can't use the skill you used in round 1 again, and you can't use a skill if a different player THIS ROUND has already used it, but if it was used by someone else last round it is fair game.

Kelnes pushes the pace for the group while traveling helping my taking backpacks from multiple people and carrying them if needed. Helping others cross streams or get over obstacles.

"Looks like we are on the right path" Says Chiron
OOC:
What is the immediate terrain and surrounding geography like? Just trying to get a sense of the surroundings.
May 23, 2024 1:44 pm
As the group tries to take a break to eat and catch their breath from hours of walking, they end up taking too long. A group of men with snakes for heads and snake bodies instead of their legs approach from two different sides. "There they are," One of them hisses. "Hythonia does not wish to have visitors at this time, let alone armed ones." It then takes a small gem in its hands and tosses it up in the air. As it gets higher, it gets brighter and brighter until it can be seen even in the later afternoon sun. This is likely a signal to tell the dragon where you are. Luckily, the dragon does not appear to be here yet. Perhaps you have a round or two before it would arrive. Until then, these snake men seem hostile.
OOC:
You are in a forest area, probably half a mile from the coast. I am assuming you had your weapons stowed, but you might have had something like a shield out if you didn't think it would be too difficult to hold for 3+ hours.

OOC:
Kadmos, Chironides, and Omeros are up. Dragon goes after Kadmos, but is not in the battle yet, so until then these 3 go as a group.
See Current Battle Information thead for map. If you move, please tell me what square you move to. As a reminder, I use default movement, not realistic, so 1 square is 5 feet no matter how many diagonals.

Chironides takes the lead and bolts towards 1-4 and punishes it with his Warhammer, and magic. The powerful blows knocking it into G2 (Crusher Feat)

Chiron gives a yip! yip! and then moves to P5

Adding Hooves!

Kadmos will move forward almost as quickly as Chironides, striking out at a cultist with his blade.
OOC:
Moving to G3. Attacking Cultist 1-4 (who is now in space G 2. If the cultist died after the first or second attack, remaining attacks will be against the cultist 1-3 who is also within 5 feet of me.

OOC:
@Basil Did you use booming blade? I see two warhammer attacks. You only get 1 attack when you cast the cantrip. I believe the hooves are your bonus action, and you aren't hasted so not sure where the 2nd attack came from. I'm also not sure about the movement. To use the hooves, you need to move 30 feet first. I estimate with 70 speed that you could get to M3, not P3. I'll resolve your turn once I hear from you.

Since Kadmos is ganging up on the same enemy, I'll have to wait to resolve his turn until after this too, as I don't want to make him waste attacks on an already dead enemy.
May 23, 2024 4:58 pm
Sorry skip the booming blade and hoof... just 2 Warhammer attacks... here is the route i took... maybe I just was not sure of the path, that should take me into p4 with 65 movement?
[ +- ] Path
May 23, 2024 5:32 pm
Chironides rushes up and bashes one of the snake men two good times, pushing him some in the process, before galloping off. Kadmos rushes the same snake man only to get him an inch from his life, but barely still holding on.
OOC:
Kadmos did not finish of 1-4.
Ok, just need Omeros and then the enemy will go
May 24, 2024 5:47 am
"Invictus!" Omeros bellowed to summon his sun sword to his hand.

"You!" he bellowed again, this time at the closest snake-man in the currently unengaged group to curse him as prey.
OOC:
Action: Summoning Sun Blade.
Bonus Action:
[ +- ] Hexblade's Curse on 2-3!
Move: None.
OOC:
Forgot to roll for regaining HP after the sea serpent almost killed Omeros. Can we say he downed a Potion of Greater Healing for 20 HP, and spent 6 hit dice?
OOC:
Ugh. Middling rolls. He's up to 61/81 HP.
OOC:
And re: his skill challenge change... Omeros used Performance (+10) to mime what he saw while scouting to the others. :)

Worshiper of Hythonia

The snake men hiss. "For the queen!" Those not engaged with Kadmos lunge at the rest of the group, though not at Chironides due to his distance. Each attempts to construct someone with their lower halves before following up with a bite.
OOC:
Summary:
If anything alters the values below, please tell me. For example, if you casted the shield spell or had a resistance.

Kadmos: 5 piercing and 9 poison damage
Isaiah: Restrained and 24 bludgeoning damage
Omeros: Restrained and 7 bludgeoning damage and 7 piercing and 8 poison damage
Kelnes: Restrained and 10 bludgeoning damage 4 piercing and 7 poison damage
Argos: Restrained and 12 bludgeoning damage and 7 piercing and 6 poison damage

I will update the combat log with who is restrained by who so we know who is freed when an enemy does.if 2 enemies hit the same person with construct, I will say only the first constricted and the second did more of a tail slap

Isaiah and Kelnes may go. Remember restrained means 0 speed and disadvantage on attacks. Escape DC is 13 and takes an action to attempt. You are still able to cast spells, though. Nothing in the rules affect that.
