Round Two: Lizardfolk
Despite being outnumbered now, the lizardfolk keep fighting, swinging their clubs, biting, and trying to smash you with their spiked shields. Those who were throwing javelins now move forward to engage.

L4 smacks Bughu with its shield, driving its spikes into his side (22 vs AC. Damage: 7)

L5 advances on Jon and swings its club and then tries to bite the diminutive fighter. Both of its attacks connect (22 and 17 vs AC. Damage: 7 and 3)

L7 rushes the spellcaster, hoping to be rid of the destructive fireballs that he's flinging. It hits him once in the side (17 vs AC. Damage: 4).

Bughu almost considers impaling himself onto the spiked shield to keep it from being used again, but still tries to free his companions from their own battles. He turns to fire upon Lizardfolk7, mindful to switch targets to Lizardfolk5 should the opportunity arise.

Erich recoils slightly as he gets attacked by the lizard. Shaking his head, he keeps his focus on the tiny meteors swirling around his head. His fingers start to move, when the lizard in front of him drops from Bughu's shot, giving him a clear picture of the remaining lizards. He flicks his hands apart, sending a meteor to crash just behind each of the remaining combatants, trying to keep the explosions from hitting his compatriots.

Using Bonus Action to send 2 more of Melf's minute meteors towards the remaining lizards DC 14 Dex save for half damage. Action to cast scorching ray as a 2nd level spell. 2 beams for Lizard4, 1 beam for Lizard5. All damage is fire, so all 1s are 2s. :)

Seeing the tide turning in their favor, I stand from my hiding spot, grab my rapier and rush towards the closest lizard!

Round Three: Bughu, Xalana, Erich
Bughu's first shot strikes L7 in the neck. It staggers back and falls dead to the ground

Erich's final meteors explode right behind the remaining lizardmen, but they are able to avoid most of the damage from the attacks. The follow-up rays of flame burn into L4 and he hisses in pain as his flesh is burned. The final ray misses L5, who ducks out of the way just in time.

Xalana comes rushing out from behind some barrels and stabs L5 in the back.

OOC:

Xalana's attack bonus should be +6 (+3 from Dex, +3 from Proficiency)

Going to finish this here

In just a few more moments, you are able to finish the rest of the lizardfolk. The room is silent but for your heavy breathing. What do you do now?

Bughu quickly moves to the door in the north wall and braces himself against the frame. He sights his crossbow through and takes a look to see what's on the other side, and if any movement can be noticed.

Perception - (1d20+4)

Erich bends down and checks over the body of the lizard in front of him, looking for anything that could be of use in identifying them or increasing Erich's own personal wealth.

Aside from their weapons and shields, the lizardfolk don't carry anything of real worth.

Within the room on the north, you see an open trapdoor in the southeastern corner. No more lizaardfolk present themselves within the room.

Oct 27, 2018 12:35 am

"Makes sense, now," says Bughu. "Gristle Pete hears noises in here, but the food's untouched. He probably heard these lizards coming and going from that trapdoor. I figure Bog Luck's in on this, too; why else would he be trying to keep his own employees out?

"So, what were they after? What's in this room? Erich, Xalana, see if you can dig into some of these crates. I'm going to see where that trapdoor leads."

Oct 27, 2018 2:11 am

As Bughu peers into the trapdoor, he sees a tunnel that extends farther than he can see.

Oct 27, 2018 1:40 pm

I'd be surprised if he isn't in on it in some way. Either directing it or he's being blackmailed into it. Erich says, nodding to Xalana. Let's get to those crates.

Oct 29, 2018 6:20 pm

"Make it quick," Bughu says to his companions. "I'll keep watch on this tunnel in case more of those lizards come through."

Oct 29, 2018 7:46 pm

Looking through the room, you find a large amount of gold and personal items in several chests. You'd guess that these belong to the workers here and are kept for safekeeping, as the sleeping rooms had no locks.

The crates in here are largely building supplies for the road work, but you do find one of the chests that the cultists were hauling, which is full of coins and other high-value items.

Oct 29, 2018 8:22 pm

Bughu considers the findings. "What do you think? You think these lizards are working for the cult?"
