I realized that I need to get used to combat posts for my monk and I should prob do that in the arena thread, rather than the adventure thread. I've only tried a monk in my first ever game and I was lvl 1 so I didn't have any extra features then. Can I get into this somehow?

@Silver.hawk: I've built this encounter for 3 level 5 characters but I'll get you in on the next round for sure :)

4 orcs take shots at Cailean with their longbows.
OOC:
Take 18 points of piercing damage or prepare to catch some arrows!
The old orc pulls something from his cloak. It's a small willow wand. He points it at Wulfram before his darkness spell takes effect. Three beams of white light streak out and slam into Wulfram's chest.
OOC:
Take 12 points of force damage.
The other orcs take up a defensive position and wait for you to come to them.

Round 2 fight!

Using his reaction, Cailean reaches out and catches an arrow. With a quick flick of his wrist he throws it back towards the archer. "Ya know there are more of us here than just me."

Cailean flies over the head of the magic user, dropping down from his broom next to him and sending his broom back to the entrance by saying the magic words. Using a Ki point, he kicks the wizard in its leg, headbutts it, and throws two quick jabs. As he punches he yells out to the others, "Anytime ya want ta get in here and do something, I'd appreciate it."

Wulfram takes the bolts to the chest and appears to be battered right before darkness descends and envelops him. He rushes his movement speed straight towards the raised mound making it approx 70 feet from the platform.
A bolt of blue energy erupts through the darkness heading for the magic user in the center of the group.

"Focus fire on big ugly!" Wulfram shouts to his companions

Gunther makes his way to the rear of the palisade.
OOC:
With a decent stealth check you could make it in unseen
Low and behold, Wulfram's attack misses yet again!

Cailean's first and third strike connect with the old orc but it manages to dodge away from the other two attacks. The old orc moves away from the monk
OOC:
Take an AOO if you like.
And points his finger at him. It barks out a word in orcish.
[ +- ] Orcish
OOC:
Make a wisdom saving throw.
Then it holds up a bleached skull with it's right hand and you see the eye sockets begin to bleed. Then a giant, crude looking spear descends from the sky and strikes at Cailean.

The two orcs with spears move up and assault Cailean while the four archers take their shots at Wulfram.
OOC:
Take another 8 damage Cailean.
Next round, fight!

What does the rear of the palisade look like?
May 10, 2018 2:06 pm
Wulfram moves another 30 feet closer to the raised platform maintaining concentration on his sphere of darkness for some cover while he gets into melee range.
OOC:
If we started 100ft away - 1st move was 30 and 2nd move was 30 straight to platform I should be about 40 feet away. How difficult will it be to get through the barrier?
Another arc of blue lightning erupts from the sphere of darkness towards the magic user.

OOC:
@Gunther: The rear of the palisade looks much like the front. A large pile of earth with sharpened stakes point towards you and there's a small wooden fence at the top. None of the orcs are currently defending the wall near your position. The fence is about 5 feet high. There is no opening in the wall from this side.
May 10, 2018 2:20 pm
I run forward and press close to the palisade wall.

OOC:
@Wulfram, as the orcs defending the opening have moved in to engage Cailean it should be very east to just enter the enclosure. To move up the hill in any other direction will cost half of your movement for 10 feet, and climbing over the palisade will take all of it.

You have 2 orcs with spears around you. You wisdom save is successful, so you may act normally. He moved about 15 feet away from you
May 12, 2018 2:17 am
"Well aren't you an ugly one,"Cailean launches into a flurry of blows against the orc that attacked him. He moves into the first one swaying as he gets in close, jabbing him with a right and a left, then kicks into its knee and finishes with a headbutt. As he continues to sway erractically he disengages, as a constant blur, moving in and around the orc chieftan, ending up behind him.
OOC:
Part of my drunken technique is that I can disengage as part of a flurry of blows, and those rolls sucked

Gunther runs up to the palisade and looks over. He now has an unobstructed line of sight to the chieftan and the six orcs. Two of Cailean's attacks hit and one of the orcs falls unconscious. Wulfram's attack strikes a vicious blow on one of the archers.

Getting over their shock, the archers and spearman all take aim at Cailean. The chieftan pulls out his wand and another load of missiles strike out at him. The massive crude spear also comes in for an attack.
OOC:
Yikes 27 points of damage Cailean!

Cailean reaches out to grab one of the arrows out of the air.
OOC:
Just a few questions to clarify, I did move myself so that the big orc with the wand was between me and the archers/spearman. since I moved to the back of the orc using my last disengage, can the spiritual weapon still reach me?

Spiritual weapon can move 20 feet per round. It was cast in front of you and the orc warchief only moved 15 feet away. If you moved to within melee range of the warchief then there is no way you could have moved more than 15 feet away from the weapon.
