Erich wrings his hands together a bit before sliding his wand out, taking a cue from Bughu and attempting to hide.

As Mryio descends the stairs, Jon and Erich slip into the shadows. Bughu tries to find a shadowed spot, but ends up kicking a loose pebble down the stairs, alerting the group to his presence.

Ignoring Mryio for the moment, the half-dragon speaks to Bughu, "You're the one who killed Cyanwrath, aren't you? What makes you so foolish as to invade this place?"

They all have hands on their weapon hilts, but don't rush to attack, yet.

Bughu knows the half-dragon is talking to him. He tips his head to the approaching Myrio and says, "Ask him."

"My employer tasked me to retrieve an egg from this cave, a simple task if the inhabitants just cooperated. I hired my friend here as a safety net of sorts; seeing him dispose of this Cyanwrath, he proved to be someone who would be able to handle himself in the event of stubbornness. Judging by your current posture, you are choosing to walk the path of your brethren; I'd advise you to steer away from that path, do not mistake my kindness as ineptitude to handle a weapon." Mryio draws and places the head of his maul on the ground "Now, you can do this peacefully, no bloodshed, no death, just words... or you can ignore my offer and the two of us will continue to whittle down your numbers until we find someone with half a brain that is willing to think things through."
May 23, 2017 3:40 am
The half-dragon flashes his sharp teeth and laughs, "You come to the sanctum of our most holy Lady and expect to steal part of her budding army with no resistance? You ARE a fool, then, aren't you?" he says mockingly, then rushes toward Mryio to attack.

Mindful of the other two individuals in the room, Bughu raises his longbow and sends an arrow at the half-dragon.

Seeing the others leap into combat as the half-dragon rushes, them, Erich sends two motes of fire out from his hidden location. One at the half dragon, the other at the furthest other enemy.

Casting fire bolt and spending 1 SP to give it the twinned metamagic effect.

I think it's at advantage because of being hidden, if not, ignore the second attack rolls on each one. :)

Round One: Players
Mryio moves forward and smacks the half-dragon in the chest with his maul. The burly monster barely grunts from the attack, but hisses loudly at the paladin.

Bughu's arrow flies wide and is lost in the darkness in the corner of the room.

Erich's fire bolt splits as it leaves his hand. The first catches the half-dragon in the side, scorching his armor and searing the flesh beneath. The second bolt hits one of the burly human warriors.

Jon fires an arrow, which misses badly and shatters against the wall.

Enemies
Half-Dragon: 35/57, AC 17 (engaged with Mryio)
Berserker 1: 60/67, AC 13
Berserker 2: 67/67, AC 13

Round One: Enemies
The half-dragon laughs in Mryio's face and slashes at him twice with his greatsword. The first attack hits (22 vs AC. Damage 12)

One of the men moves to attack Mryio, swinging a very large axe at him. He hits the unarmored paladin in the side (CRIT vs AC. Damage 11)

The other man moves to attack Bughu, closing the distance in a flash and swinging his large axe. He clips the archer with his axe, but isn't able to land a solid blow (20 vs AC. Damage 8)

Enemies
Half-Dragon: 35/57, AC 17 (engaged with Mryio) 
Berserker 1: 60/67, AC 13 (engaged with Mryio. Reckless Attack: advantage on attacks against him)
Berserker 2: 67/67, AC 13 (engaged with Bughu. Reckless Attack: advantage on attacks against him)
OOC:
Your turn!

Bughu draws his scimitar in a flash, using the impact from the axe to spin around and retaliate with his own attack.

OOC:
Just realized how trash this character is in this story... at least I kept him true to Mario fashion, he pretty much dies in two hits.
A sudden shield appears around the paladin, deflecting the half-dragons blow but the precision and strength of his other opponent is too great as it sinks through his skin. He continues his assault on the half-dragon.
OOC:
Using my reaction to cast shield. Sadly, I don't think that impacts crits though.

Jon, Erich?

I don't think Mryio is doing too bad, he just needs a bit more health, which you can help a bit next level. Take the toughness feat and gain 2 HP per level, or increase Con by two points would help as well

If you aren't enjoying the character, let me know and we can work something out to make him more enjoyable or allow you to change altogether :)

I, for one, am enjoying him immensely due to the arguments with Bughu

Once more, a split set of fire streaks out from the darkness, aimed for the half dragon and the man he hit before.

Casting fire bolt and spending 1 SP to give it the twinned metamagic effect. Likely no advantage as I didn't do any stealthy hiding stuff. Pretty sure they know where I am now. :)

Round Two: Players
Bughu slashes at the man attacking him, catching him in the arm. Blood sprays down on the stones, but the warrior barely seems to notice. He doesn't seem to be afraid of Bughu in the slightest.

Mryio smashes the half-dragon in the side. You hear a loud crack upon impact and the half-dragon groans in horrible pain, but continues fighting.

Erich's fire bolts go out again. He misses the half-dragon, but hits the berserker again.

Jon sees what trouble Mryio is in and closes in on the half-dragon, stabbing at him with his longsword. His attack misses.

Enemies
Half-Dragon: 21/57, AC 17 (engaged with Mryio and Jon)
Berserker 1: 53/67, AC 13 (engaged with Mryio and Jon. Reckless Attack: advantage on attacks against him)
Berserker 2: 58/67, AC 13 (engaged with Bughu. Reckless Attack: advantage on attacks against him)
