Chapter 2: Willowdark, A Village Renewed

Xaar's swing misses the large man, though her stormfury burns him where he stands, causing him to shriek in pain as the lightning ripples over his body. He swings back in retaliation, his own greataxe finding its mark once, dealing 11 damage (before any rage reduction).

The old man stands, his hand gripped around a twisted staff. He coughs slightly, sending flecks of blood and spittle everywhere. Should have left us alone. Get them, children. he growls as he points. The two risen corpses walk towards you, slowly. The one in the dirt rises, taking its full turn to emerge.

NOW you are all back up.

Geran frowns at his failed attempt on the large man, so he focuses his attention on the old man, You seem tense. Enjoy yourself by engaging in dance and festivity with your friends.

Casting suggestion on the old man.

OOC:

This will be hilarious if it works.

Rixon watches in horror as the body rises from the ground, dirt falling in streams off the dead flesh. Rixon strikes quickly and without hesitation, driving the steel of his twin swords at the abomination.

Attacking with primary weapon, using bonus action to attack with second weapon. Level 1 Smite if hit.

If he hits, Rixon will use Smite. If the creature falls, Rixon will move towards the others at the tent.

Now with combat stat block!

Rixon's blades both find their home in the chest of the nearest creature. A burst of radiant light explodes from the creature, and its body scatters across the garden.

Xaar's swing whistles by the bigger man as he twists to avoid the attack.

Kaio swings at the big guy, his sword scoring a blow on the man's arm. Unfortunately, his punch went wide!

The old man laughs at Geran. Boy, you meddle with magics you couldn't possibly understand. He chuckles and mutters a few words while he touches the big man's back. A soft glow surrounds him before fading away.

The big man grins and swings at Xaar. Both swings miss as she spins in a circle, laughing.

The two standing ghouls advance, one to Kaio the other to Geran. Kaio's swings and misses badly. Geran's swings and connects with the man (15 to hit). It deals 10 damage and please make a DC10 Constitution save. If you fail, you are paralyzed for 1 minute.

You're all up.

Eyes fixed on the wizened and cackling old man and knuckles white from clenching swords in righteous fury, Rixon says, You will not live long enough to regret these actions. You have been Tried, and your execution is tonight. His words had a palpable severity to them.

That would have been a satisfying crit.

Also! Just realized I got my spell slots wrong. I should have 3 at level 3 and I've only used 2 (Hunter's Mark and Divine Smite). I'll hold that last, for now.

Since he is paralyzed, Geran has the idea to leave his body and return to Bojangles. Feigning death may help him survive his unfortunate encounter.

Jun 16, 2017 7:58 pm

OOC:

Welcome back! And yes, Kaio is up to beat some people. There are two zombie dudes standing, the big guy in armor that just shimmered a bit, and the gnarly old man that seems to be quite the annoyance.

Kaio quickly assesses the situation and decides that the old man should be the primary target. Sprinting towards him, Kaio lashes out with his longsword and fist before dropping into a defensive stance.
Because Kaio is wielding a kensei weapon and made an unarmed attack while doing so, he can assume a defensive stance and has a +2 AC until the beginning of his next turn.

OOC:

Do you remember, @Drama, if Kaio got a longsword in town? I thought he did... Posting as longsword; if he somehow didn't I'll change it. Also, since I created Kaio, UA has updated the Kensei path. Can I update him accordingly?

As Xaar slashes into the big man, a flare of light goes off and leaves his body without that light shimmer that used to be there. He looks MUCH worse for wear.

Rixon and Kaio both jab into the old man, dealing a fair bit of damage.

The old man flicks his fingers and a burst of light rushes out, making him and the big man glow briefly. You see the deep gashes left by Xaar's weapon slowly close on him.

The two undead stagger forward, one swinging at Rixon, the other at Kaio.

The big man takes only a single swing at Xaar.

The one swinging at Kaio connects, dealing 11 damage. Kaio, please make a DC 10 Con save or be paralyzed for 1 minute.

Rixon's misses, horribly, ending with the beast facing backwards!

The big man swings at Xaar, but having been brought so close to death he can't muster the strength to connect.

You're up. Geran, you can make a Con save to try breaking free of the paralysis but it will be the entirety of your turn. :)
