Magical energies begin to coalesce around me as I consider which spell to cast.
Ravenloft game thread
Magical energies begin to coalesce around me as I consider which spell to cast.
A fell creature breaks out of the mist, but it was not the wolf you were expecting. A much larger, faster, more monstrous creature darts towards the group, choosing Faelor as an obvious target. Sindar launches a bolt from behind the hefty door, which implants into the creature, a fine shot considering the crowd of his companions close by.
The worg snaps it's powerful jaws at Faelor, sensing his magical prowess, but misses in it's blind rage.
Steel is spooked, being pressed against a wall at the start of the engagement, and darts behind Alastor, keeping an eye on Lysander.

Ireena darts sideways across the battlefield, dodging Iskandil and swiping the worg with her dagger, making a skilful lunge into the worg's muscle tissue.
Two more Worgs pounce from the mists, fiendishly lunging at any threats they perceive. Iskandil takes another bite wound from a second challenge (total 23 damage), but the other worg is blinded as Grizel unleashes the bane spell.
You hear the pounding of claws further out in the mist - it is certain that this is not the full pack.

OOC:
Worg must succeed on a DC 14 Str save or be knocked prone. If the target is knocked prone, Alastor can take a
bonus action this round to make another hooves attack. Rolling that bonus attack now just in case.
I'm not certain which worgs have been affected by Grizel's Bane spell. Those would have 1d4 penalty on attacks and saves.

[ooc: disengage action.]
Even as she shouts she begins to enter her battle trance and can feel herself limber as she draws her swords and then dances about flitting her attacks in where they will hurt the worgs the most.
Katerina moves up to the worg, drawing her swords as part of her move, and then uses the Attack action for two attacks followed by a bonus action off hand attack.

Another worg emerges from the mist, veering left to stick with the pack, taking a bite of Ireena, who remains powerfully composed. Hotay freaks and tries to pull the cart around the side of the building.
Faelor steps away carefully, weary of being marked, to make way for Katerina, who makes three successful piercing jabs. The worg ducks to the ground and snarls.
Another worg emerges through a fold of mist, squaring off with Alastor, making a successful bite attack.

Steel falls back, not comfortable in the constant thick mist, staying close to Lysander but keeping distance from the fray.
Iskandil wrestles the (east) worg to the ground, returning to position as another holy light strikes his foe.
Ireena hears the call and disengages from the enemy: "the fight is yours. I will see to your beast". She retreats west and places a gentle hand on hotay's mane.
Worg 1 (left) appears to follow, but instead circles Iskandil to flank, evidently feeling him as the main threat. He is able to wrench the dire wolf's ankle.

OOC:
*Alastor Trampling Charge vs the downed Worg 3. I don't know if he automatically gets his bonus attack (because the worg is already prone) or if Worg 3 still gets a chance to avoid the bonus attack by making its DC 14 Strength saving throw vs being knocked prone.
*Alastor draws Worg 6's opportunity attack so Grizel can move freely.
