Veroth dips, dives, ducks, dodges, and flies between the two biggies, hoping to angle to the unprotected backside of the plantstrosity.

Veroth bobs and waeves but fails to find any "back" to this creature... Still, his rapier finds some soft vegetable matter to pierce, making some fresh blood-looking sap-like liquid flow.

Roland is up next.

Roland moves and fires a dragons breath round from his blunderbuss at the tree.

2d6 fire damage, 15 foot cone, reflex save dc15 for half.

Rolls

Fire damage - (2d6)

(41) = 5

Nov 11, 2018 11:47 pm
Roland shoots his fire breath ammo at the plant creature and... it does not seem to have done a damn thing... Looks like this plant is somehow resistant to fire.

Adrith is up next (you arrive from the north/top of the map..

Rolls

Plant creature REF save - (1d20+2)

(19) + 2 = 21

Flying Drow aside, the plant thing seems to be the closest threat, and is being attacked by what appears to be celestial wolves. Making up his mind, he advances to attack.

"In the name of Iomedae, someone tell me what is going on here!"
OOC:
Assuming nothing pings on the detect evil, will swing at the plant monster after moving up.

Rolls

Attack (with power attack) - (1d20+10)

Everyone sees a man of great unearthly beauty wearing armor and a greatsword emerge from the woods. As he makes his demands, he swings at the remaining plant creature damaging it greatly.

As for Adrith, nothing in the immediate area seems to be detecting evil.
Nov 13, 2018 1:41 am
Ireena is up.

Lifting her crossbow to shoot at the remaining plant creature she answers Adrith's question.

"We were attacked during the night by agents of that Devil Strahd. While fighting them we awakened local monsters... guess we should have been more thorough cleaning those ruins..."

She then takes her shot. It falls short by about a foot...

Rolls

Ireena's shot.

Nov 13, 2018 1:45 am
Weiryn is up now.

He continues Ireena's explanation while changing tactics seeing Ryjo is out of danger for now.

"As the lady said, we were lured into an ambush by some undeads during the night. Most have been destroyed, but I believe the one which was incorporeal to still be nearby..."

Finally, Weiryn decides the party's best bet is to calm the mule. No need to waste more spells...
So far, the mule does not seem any calmer...
[ +- ] Weiryn's stats

Rolls

Handle Animal - (1d20+2)

(7) + 2 = 9

Nov 13, 2018 1:56 am
Now is Ryjo's turn.

The large person will not speak, but will acknowledge the newcomer with a nod (and possibly a smile, it is difficult to say with a mangled face like that). He will then proceed to punch the plant creature twice.

Both fist fails to inflict any sort of significant damage as the large man seems to have trouble breathing and winces in pain every time he extends his arms...
[ +- ] Ryjo's stats.

Rolls

Flurry of blows 1st attack - (1d20+2, 2d6+1)

1d20+2 : (10) + 2 = 12

2d6+1 : (33) + 1 = 7

Nov 13, 2018 2:03 am
Hearing shouting from an unfamiliar voice outside, the incorporeal undead will go to see who the newcomer is. Darren can take an attack of opportunity at this point.

The creature will make an active Perception check as its action this round.

The creature is currently looking in Adrith's general direction, but not AT Adrith...

Rolls

Incorporeal undead passive Perception check.

Incorporeal creature active Perception check.

The plant creature constrict the celestial wolf, killing it (if it was not dead already) and drag it into its space to start feeding on it.

Then Durgrim will step outside. "By Torag's beard, come back here ye yellow-bellied dirty drape!"
OOC:
Ah, finally, the NPC, absent players, and the monsters done...
Darren is up next (include your AoO for the undead just leaving...).
Nov 13, 2018 2:09 am
Darren continues attacking the incorporeal undead in front of him as it moves away, then moves out the door to assist Durgrim

Darren hits the creature as it leaves, then pursues it and finishes it off. This leaves the plant creature...

Heather is up next!

Veroth finishes off the remaining plant creature with a deft stab of his rapier at some cluster of vegetable matter between the vines.

Victory!

Now to calculate the XPs.
OOC:
Speaking of which, Shanata, when you entered, did I put you at the start of 6th level or midway through 6th and 7th so you're not lagging too far the rest of the party? That might be important to know for Khotanos...
Adrith gains 355 XPs.
Everyone else gains 500 XPs.

Taking a moment to make sure that the combat is actually over, Adrith scans the group before him, and makes sure to clean the goop from his blade. "I believe introductions are in order. I am Adrith, Paladin of Iomedae. I was investigating in the area when I heard the sounds of your fight, and came to lend what aid I could. Now that we have a moment, are any of you in need of healing?"
Nov 16, 2018 6:18 pm
Veroth, the 'flying drow', eyes the paladin suspiciously as the plant falls dead. In a deeply accented voice, he says, "Well met, Adrith, paladin of Iomedae. I am Veroth of the Lightbringers. My companions will want to thank you for interceding." He whips his rapier free of blackish plant goo, before cleaning it and leading the way out of the barn. He doesn't turn his back to the newcomer.
Nov 16, 2018 7:00 pm
Roland will reload all his weapons and wheel the hackbutt over to the group.

"aye, hello fellow traveler. Thank you for the hand."
