A Quick Bite to Eat [D4, MA] (Combat)

[Whisper]

Whisper took a moment to examine his prey, shifting his focus to make each strike more lethal. Unfortunately, that moment cost him momentum, allowing him to inflict only a shallow wound.

[Alynne Valaris]

Alynne continues to dance while playing her bandore, her movements become more energetic as her tempo increases slightly but surely, while the ball of light that is her familiar hovers above her, giving the light effect she needs for this performance.

''Pulling back the reins
Letting go again
I'm not afraid, I'm not.''

Slighty jumping while performing, she moves forward closing the gap between the other combatants. Her musical harmonious tone is directed towards Lord Morningstar, while her dissonant notes hit the blue planar frog with the crushing sound of a bell calling for its death...

• Constitution Save vs Red Slaad Eggs - 23|Pass

[The Mighty Tarrasque]

The blue slaad rears back from the slash and - immediately after - a deep bell tolls, sounding clearly in the market. The beast is severely injured but remains on its feet.

The grey slaad soars overhead of the battle below, lowering as it flies and speeding over top of the flying aasimar, striking from above with tooth and claw. Teeth strike home and claws tear at flesh and wings, injuring the flying bard. As the slaad rights itself, it barks in the gutteral language of the slaad, loud over the din of the city and the battle below.

(Blue Slaad fails WIS save for Toll the Dead. Grey Slaad moves directly above Sings-With-Purpose; Grey Slaad deals 30 damage to Sings-With-Purpose.)

Toll the Dead WIS Save: 1d20-2 10

(The grey slaad is directly above Sings-With-Purpose; due to the limitations of the map I had to move the token next to her.)

Round 2: Knight 4's Turn

[Alynne Valaris]

Unfortunately, Sir Brian was unable to assist the Aasimar flying which was attacked by the smaller planar frog. Without much options, he rushes forward in order to engage with the blue slaad and finish it or assist '' Keep on my Lords, victory will be ours!'' he said hoping Gabriel will get even more heroic after seeing his previous attack.

As for Sir Wulfric and Sir Percival, they continue to attack the red frog with their great swords, to great effect, their experience in solid training showing as they hit the frog multiple times.

[The Mighty Tarrasque]

The red slaad is slashed by the pair of knights, vicious fluid falling from its new wounds.

The green slaad, meanwhile, untroubled by the repeated attacks from the animated cart, barks some words and spits up a small pea-sized into the middle of the melee. A moment later, it blossoms into a fiery shockwave, sweeping out from the point of impact and engulfing all those in the middle of the market. Stalls ignite, those injured who were discarded are burned, and fires begin to burn around the edges of the market where the wave overtakes nearby buildings. For those caught in the blast, it is, needless to say, painful.

(Everyone except the Animated Cart, the Green Slaad, the Grey Slaad, and Sings-With-Purpose must make a DC 12 Dexterity save or take 25 fire damage; on a successful save, they take 13.)

Ride or Die - Fireball, Baby!: 8d6 25
Fireball Dex Save (Blue Slaad): 1d20+2 8
Fireball Dex Save (Red Slaad): 1d20+1 2



Round 3: Top of the Round... Interlude?

[The Mighty Tarrasque]

Round 3: Top of the Round Interlude

There is panic in the streets; yelling, screaming, crackling flames. As the shock wave of the fireball disipates, screams come from nearby alleys and waves of people emerge from them, rushing past the ruined market and away southwards. Behind them, in their wake, come another pair of creatures - another of the creatures with a red hide and one more, hide of the purest wide and with almost pink eyes. They hiss and slobber, tossing aside the meals they carry as they are attracted by the grey's barking and the sound of battle.

Whisper managed to shield himself from the worst of the sudden Inferno.

HP: 63/76

[Alynne Valaris]

Alynne gets engulfed by the fire, which hurts, but she seems to doesn't care. The sensation of fire on her body is nothing that she is not accustomed to, she continues to play and perform as nothing has happened.

Ser Percival, Ser Wulfric and Ser Brian they all also feel the fire, but unlike Alynne they did indeed suffered a much painful sensation, while Sir Albus didn't as he was too quick '' Don't Mind! Carry On to Victory!'' he yelled.

[Sings-With-Purpose]

Sings took quite a significant series of hits from the slaadi above her, which hurt like crazy, but she saw more threats appear from the corner of her eye and made a split second; doing some quick mental math on angles and distances and flew away from the Gray slaadi.

"Be with you later luv!" She pointed a finger back at it before pointing at both the red slaadi that had been fighting the knights, and the white one that had just emerged.

"Welcome to the bard-off, boys! You're up, so let's see if you can *keep up* with this little tune of mine... and be sure to put your feet and hips into it as well!"

She started strumming on her bandore, and singing;

"We're talking away
I don't know what I'm to say
I'll say it anyway
Today is another day to find you
Shyin' away
Oh, I'll be comin' for your love, okay"

Both the Red and White Slaadi started tapping their feet, preparing to sing the chorus.

[Action: Casting Beguiling Bet as a 4th level spell on Red and White Slaadi, they have disadvantage, rolls for them by GM below]

WIS Save: 2#1d20+1 9 13
WIS Save: 2#1d20-2 7 14

Bonus action: Rockstar performance: Performance in the middle of a Slaadi fight: 1d20+14 27

The Slaadi will both need to use their next action to roll charisma(Performance) and try and beat my 27 or the spell continues.

Free action: Be a rockstar.

Beguiling Bet
level 2 Enchantment

Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 ft.
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 minute
Classes: Bard

You issue a challenge against one creature you can see within range, which must make a successful Wisdom saving throw or become charmed. On a failed save, you can make an ability check as a bonus action. For example, you could make a Strength (Athletics) check to climb a difficult surface or to jump as high as possible; you could make a Dexterity (Acrobatics) check to perform a backflip; or you could make a Charisma (Performance) check to sing a high note or to extemporize a clever rhyme. You can choose to use your spellcasting ability modifier in place of the usual ability modifier for this check, and you add your proficiency bonus if you're proficient in the skill being used. The charmed creature must use its next action (which can be a legendary action) to make the same ability check in a contest against your check. Even if the creature can't perform the action—it may not be close enough to a wall to climb it, or it might not have appendages suitable for strumming a lute—it must still attempt the action to the best of its capability. If you win the contest, the spell (and the contest) continues, with you making a new ability check as a bonus action on your turn. The spell ends when it expires or when the creature wins the contest.

At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can target one additional creature for every two slot levels above 2nd. Each creature must be within 30 feet of another creature when you cast the spell.
