A Small Heist [5e] OOC

[J-H]

You can cast Animal Friendship at will, but it's a single target spell, so you can only hit 1 moth this round with it. Are you going to do the one on the right or on the left?

[Pyrophilios]

I'd say the right one. Should have picked Ifreet as patron than I could crack a joke about moths drawn to the flame...

[Xav]

My turn now?

[J-H]

Yeah, that was just a reaction to the first attack that hit it.

[Frendle]

Man I can't hit anything with that fire bolt

[J-H]

GM1 Dex save (1d20+4)[19]

[J-H]

GM2 Wis save (1d20)[12] vs charm

[J-H]

Barit con save (no modifier) (1d20)[7]

[Pyrophilios]

Damnit, should have invested into this cloak of protection...
9 vs. DC 10...

[Xav]

Moth on the right (that didn't turn invisible) was not in faerie's fire area of effect?

[J-H]

No, and it's charmed.

[J-H]

I'll be out of town until late Sunday, and probably won't be posting anything here until Monday or Tuesday.

[J-H]

Con (1d20)[15] vs scorpion poison

[Pyrophilios]

Con save is a good idea - I assume I get one the next round?

(1d20+2)[15]

[Bobthewizard]

Let's have Clip attack the invisible one instead of the charmed one.

Disadvantage roll 1 (1d20+10)[12]
Disadvantage roll 2 (1d20+10)[14]

[J-H]

Ooh, that's not going to hit.

Barit does not get to save every round against the sleep effect.

[Frendle]

Breddo will also attack the invisible one.

First
(1d20+10)[11]
(1d20+10)[26]
Damage (1d8+6)[8]


Second
(1d20+10)[26]
(1d20+10)[13]
Damage (1d8+6)[12]

[Pyrophilios]

Ooh, that's not going to hit.

Barit does not get to save every round against the sleep effect.

Wait - this is a sleep effect? Elfs and Half Elfs are immune to that thanks to fey ancestry:

Fey Ancestry.
You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put you to sleep.

[J-H]

Then yes, Barit is not unconscious. Fey Ancestry would probably be better phrased as having immunity to the "unconscious" condition. The bite attack is phrased as "unconscious" but it's really just falling asleep, similar to drow poison and a few other things.

[Frendle]

Is it possible for me to slide around behind the moth to flank it to get rid of the disadvantage?

[J-H]

I don't use the optional flanking rules.

[J-H]

Wis save vs DC 13 (1d20)[17]

[J-H]

You can make checks to identify the various animals you're coming across... typically Nature, occasionally Arachna... I mean Arcana.

Your travel path is due north from the current square once you are ready to proceed, correct?

[Pyrophilios]

That's my understanding.

Here are my rolls for the next encounter

Arcana (1d20+4)[12]
Nature (1d20)[12]

[Bobthewizard]

Here are mine

Arcana (1d20+9)[23]
Nature (1d20+5)[10]

Edit: let's hope it's magical

[J-H]

Applying those to the most recent encounter.... not so good on the Nature front so far (but the Druid hasn't rolled).

On the Arcana front, however, Ghost Moths are a minor curiousity to illusionists and spell researchers. They are a predatory moth that somehow has an affinity for invisibility, being able to both turn themselves invisible for short time periods as a defense against predation, and actively seeking out items or creatures affected by invisibility magic.

In theory, a population of them could be used to help detect invisible intruders, but in practice, nobody's figured out how to get a dense enough population to stay in one place long enough for them to be useful. Things you want to guard usually aren't things you want a few thousand insects and their food around.

[J-H]

1) Continue at normal speed
2) Continue at stealth speed using same rolls
3) Continue at stealth speed using new rolls

First 3 votes decide unless it's a tie.

I vote normal speed but Clip will slow down if everyone else wants to.

[Pyrophilios]

Same, speed is important

[Frendle]

Bumping is racing. Speed, Speed, Speed.
