Chapter 3: Hermit or Witch?

"Your witchyness... you mean some kind of herb, or the hearts from some croaky warty skins? And if so, how many? Sherry asks interested. This journey to Aelderheart wouldn't be a fast one she realizes. Lots of people seem to need their help.

But the former bandit is curious what the witch will learn and is ready to share with them.

Hop...hop...not far, not far. You see her look at the beetle on her shoulder and starts talking to it.

he show you...yes...Normal

Sharring a quick look with the others, the mapach girl shrugs her shoulders with a grin and starts to follow the beetle. "Hop - hop - hop - hearts it will be." she proclaims as she turns and puts her hands casualy on the hilts of her scimitars. "No time to waste, my friends."

THREE!! Yes three hearts...good...Normal...or maybe a big one

The beetle unfurls its wings and hovers and slowly leads the group to a boggy swamp not 100 yards away. Looking at the swamp you can see some toads hopping around and disappearing into the muck.
OOC:
The characters are going to need to sneak up on the toads and make an attack roll to attack them. ranged attacks could work but instead it is a survival check to find the toad's body after it is hit.

Party can make multiple attempts but after the 3rd failure a complication occurs

Once we are close how about Sherry uses that perch pole thing. From up that high I can glide a great distance to aid you if needed. I doubt I will be able to move through this terrain quietly save by wing.

OOC:
the bog is 100 yards away. The nest charm provides a 50ft perch.

Charun can glide his movement speed per 10ft high. And wing flap 30ft up i think.

8x25=200ft.

You could functional step out the door set this up and fly 2/3rds of a football field at a toad?

OOC:
I was thinking a bit closer, but mostly to get my big noisy self from trying any stealth
Jul 2, 2024 1:39 am
OOC:
i think to accomplish what you are trying you could do it with a wing flap and glide 30ft?

Basically to use another skill other than stealth. I would call then gliding and aiming for toad to strike it upon landing an acrobatics check

I will say this would have a higher DC than stealth

OOC:
Lookout then. Just an idea, shrug.

Leif looked over at Scylla and Charun. "Can one of you distract them from that side?" Leif pointed across the way, then walked to the opposite side. "Don't scare them off, but move around to keep their eyes on you."
OOC:
Rolling stealth and attacks with Advantage, assuming that the others are "helping", but if that's not allowed, then just that the first rolls.

Rolls

Stealth (advantage) - (2d20H1+7)

(96) + 7 = 16

Sickle (Main) (advantage) - Attack - (2d20H1+5)

(1914) + 5 = 24

Charum moves to act as decoy/diversion after circling far around then slowly moving in to drive/distract the frogs.
OOC:
LoL, that's why I wanted the platform and to sit this one out :P Is ti too late to change it to a "help" action??

Sherry surprises herself when she makes the desired sliding platform appear for Charun without much resistance.

Sneaking through the muddy grass, the mapach woman surprises herself as she isn't as silent as hoped for. But her aim is true, thanks to her light sensitive eyes.

Sneak (Adv because of racial feature) - (2d20h1+6)

(25) + 6 = 11

Ranged Attack (Adv. because hidden) - (2d20h1+6, 1d8+4)

2d20h1+6 : (203) + 6 = 26

1d8+4 : (7) + 4 = 11

It's a crit! (forgot to sneak) - (1d8+2d6)

OOC:
Presuposing that Charun is less than helpful
Charun is excited when the platform is taken out and created and contents himself to searching for their target from above and calling out any he sees.

A ranged attack you would need to do a survival check to be able to find the part you need from the hit toad in the muck and mire

Leif gets the first of the Toad hearts successfully

"I hit it pretty good...." Sherry muses as she stands above the dead animal and looks down on the remains pondering.

"Could someone please help me? A heart is harder to find than one might think..."
OOC:
Could someone else please do the survivalcheck? Sherry would lend her support (give Advantage)

Just as Leif cut down the first Toad, something whizzed by and took out another. He glanced quickly at the spot, hoping to find it.
OOC:
Survival to find Sherry's toad, and then stealthing for another one.

Edit: Sorry Sherry :( Maybe you could give it a try as well, I can have Leif "help" for Advantage.

Leif can't find Sherry's toad but was able to run into another one and get it.
OOC:
2 toads
1 failure

Her people are supposed to be keen predators. Surely, even with her proclivities she can catch a simple frog. She just needs to hide herself and then leap. Her pointy ears move back and forth as she listens for her prey. She slips in the water and splashes around like a fool.

Wet and disheveled she looks to the others and apologizes. "Sorry, this is why I didn’t get into the vulpine hunting games and spent my time in the library instead."

Keeping an eye out from the platform Charun hesitates to join in the activity his training has ill-equipped him to perform. He only calls out if he spots any of their quarry. He almost calls out, thinking he spotted something but hesitates as he is unsure . .
OOC:
Threw in disadvantage for height/distance if needed
