Madness at Brightmore Abbey OOC [5e]

[Spore]

Let's get a medic on this. (1d20+5)[18]

[Spore]

(1d20+4)[11] Medic!

[Khosan]

Rollin'

Medicine - (1d20+2)[10]

[Xihirli]

No need to take Jade's infection into account. Literally impossible for her to fail another save, we'll stabilize here I'm pretty sure. She'd have to roll a 5 or less on a d20, and what are the chances?

25%...? :d

[Kushina43]

Oof, gone longer than I thought, my b, catching up. That's an interesting magic disease, not too bad to start but steering clear of that.

[Kushina43]

Double post because I forgot the check for Medicine: (1d20+1)[12] and I think those don't work in edits, but it's been a while

[Xihirli]

25%...? :d

Um... no. Zero.

[Amnestic]

Seems like I'm seeing two votes for "go in now" and two for "wait at least one long rest". The perils of an even-numbered party :P

If someone wants to change their minds, go ahead, but otherwise I'll flip a coin (roll a 1d2) to decide when you're going. Then it's just the 'where':

To make it clear, the immediate opportunities for entrance appear to be:
-Gap in the walls to the south, where nature is overgrown.
-The gate, which may or may not be manned (or gnolled?)
-Scaling the walls.

There might be other paths I've not thought of, of course, and you've not scouted the full perimeter of the hill yet, this is just what you can see from your current vantage point.

I'll switch to going in tomorrow, I think that's the smarter move.

But Jade will surround their campsite with hunting traps.

[Spore]

I think numerically Emilia has the best chances to scout, with Stealth +6, and Invisibility. The bad thing is that she is your major caster and has the worst AC and HP and as such, being detected will result in facemelting on both sides. (Surrender to Madness protects me with Wis to AC, and maximizes my damage, but then the enemy just really gets pissed).

I would not be mad someone else tries to scout with my Invisibility spell on them.

[Xihirli]

We don't even know we'll need stealth yet. Looking at the descriptor post again, there are two towers that might have no gnolls in them. If we climb to the top of those maybe we can get all the information we need without ever once coming into contact with one.
A high vantage point could be all we need to take down their numbers and get out of here.

[Amnestic]

Unless anyone shouts up a stoppage on Jade's choice (for whatever reason) I'll get a post up in the morning with the next stage, with the assumption you are following behind her.

Gonna get that Arcana check in before I head off to work.

Arcana - (1d20+8)[11]

EDIT: Oof

EDIT: Could Skipsy use her action (on her turn) to reroll that check? She still has her Steel Defender to do something, and I don't think she'd let it slide that the artifact she's holding is doing a thing and she doesn't know what.

I'll say yes to using action to reroll.

Also I should probably get a token for the Steel Defender sorted out, forgot that.

[Xihirli]

Oh, I believe I step into the web. I will make the strength save here. (1d20+7)[8] rage (1d20+7)[21]

Nobody expects JADE the Goblin!
Her main weapon is surprise. Surprise and a battleaxe. Her TWO. Two main weapons: Surprise and a battleaxe. Not to mention her longsword. Oh, bugger.

[Khosan]

Well, it was worth a shot, but Skipsy biffed it.

[Amnestic]

The barbarian can't save against disease, the artificer can't work out magic...truly Duskwood is a cursed land.

[Xihirli]

We’re pretty sure it’s the end of days.

[Amnestic]

Gonna give Kushina until tomorrow for a post and then keep it moving.

S'all good, it happens \o/

[Kushina43]

Just to be clear, the spider I smashed on auto pilot is the southern one, which remains alive and is the one that attacked Ox, yes?

Yes indeedy, that is correct.
