Continuing his charge, the dwarf finally makes it to a guard before swinging his holy warhammer from the high guard position. The silence is deafening and quite disturbing but effective in the present situation. Hail Reorx!

Although the smash of the warhammer cannot be heard, the searing of burnt flesh is unmistakable.

Spell-casting: +7 or DC 15 | 1st 4/4 | 2nd 3/3 | 3rd 2/2

Cantrips

1. Sacred Flame (V, S). Spell Attack: Dex DC 13, ranged 60 ft., one target.  Fail: 1d8 radiant damage.
2. Word of Radiance (V, M). Spell Attack: Con DC 13, ranged 5 ft., each creature of your choice. Fail: 1d6 radiant damage.
3. Light (V,M).  You touch one object that is no larger than 10 feet in any dimension. Until the spell ends, the object sheds bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet. The light can be colored as you like. Completely covering the object with something opaque blocks the light. The spell ends if you cast it again or dismiss it as an action.  If you target an object held or worn by a hostile creature, that creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw to avoid the spell.

4. Mending (V,S,M). This spell repairs a single break or tear in an object you touch, such as broken chain link, two halves of a broken key, a torn cloak, or a leaking wineskin. As long as the break or tear is no larger than 1 foot in any dimension, you mend it, leaving no trace of the former damage. This spell can physically repair a magic item or construct, but the spell can't restore magic to such an object.

1st level spells prepared

• Forge Domain: Identify (V,S,M) Ritual. You choose one object that you must touch throughout the casting of the spell. If it is a magic item or some other magic-imbued object, you learn its properties and how to use them, whether it requires attunement to use, and how many charges it has, if any. You learn whether any spells are affecting the item and what they are. If the item was created by a spell, you learn which spell created it. If you instead touch a creature throughout the casting, you learn what spells, if any, are currently affecting it.
• Forge Domain: Searing Smite (V). The next time you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack during the spell's duration, your weapon flares with white-hot intensity, and the attack deals an extra 1d6 fire damage to the target and causes the target to ignite in flames. At the start of each of its turns until the spell ends, the target must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 1d6 fire damage. On a successful save, the spell ends. If the target or a creature within 5 feet of it uses an action to put out the flames, or if some other effect douses the flames (such as the target being submerged in water), the spell ends.

1. Bless (V,S,M).  You bless up to three creatures of your choice within 30 ft. Whenever a target makes an attack roll or a saving throw before the spell ends, the target can roll a d4 and add the number rolled to the attack roll or saving throw.  Concentration up to 1 minute.
2. Cure Wounds (V,S).  A creature you touch regains a number of hit points equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
3. Detect Magic (V,S) Concentration, Ritual. For the duration, you sense the presence of magic within 30 feet of you. If you sense magic in this way, you can use your action to see a faint aura around any visible creature or object in the area that bears magic, and you learn its school of magic, if any.  The spell can penetrate most barriers, but it is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt.  Concentration up to 10 minutes.
4. Healing Word (V) Bonus.  A creature of your choice that you can see within range regains hit points equal to 1d4 + your spellcasting ability modifier. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
5. Guiding Bolt (V,S).  Make a ranged spell attack against the target within 120 feet. On a hit, the target takes 4d6 radiant damage, and the next attack roll made against this target before the end of your next turn has advantage

2nd-Level Spells Prepared

• Forge Domain: Heat Metal (V,S,M) Concentration. Choose a manufactured metal object, such as a metal weapon or a suit of heavy or medium metal armor, that you can see within range. You cause the object to glow red-hot. Any creature in physical contact with the object takes 2d8 fire damage when you cast the spell. Until the spell ends, you can use a bonus action on each of your subsequent turns to cause this damage again. If a creature is holding or wearing the object and takes the damage from it, the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or drop the object if it can. If it doesn't drop the object, it has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the start of your next turn.
• Forge Domain: Magic Weapon (V,S) Concentration. You touch a nonmagical weapon. Until the spell ends, that weapon becomes a magic weapon with a +1 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls.
• 6. Spiritual Weapon (V,S) Bonus. When you cast the spell, you can make a melee spell attack against a creature within 5 feet of the weapon. On a hit, the target takes force damage equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the weapon up to 20 feet and repeat the attack against a creature within 5 feet of it.
• 7. Lesser Restoration (V,S). You touch a creature and can end either one disease or one condition afflicting it. The condition can be blinded, deafened, paralyzed, or poisoned.
• 8. Silence (V,S) Concentration, Ritual. For the duration, no sound can be created within or pass through a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point you choose within range. Any creature or object entirely inside the sphere is immune to thunder damage, and creatures are deafened while entirely inside it. Casting a spell that includes a verbal component is impossible there.

3rd-Level Spells Prepared

• Forge Domain: Elemental Weapon (V,S) Concentration. A nonmagical weapon you touch becomes a magic weapon. Choose one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder. For the duration, the weapon has a +1 bonus to attack rolls and deals an extra 1d4 damage of the chosen type when it hits.
• Forge Domain: Protection from Energy (V,S) Concentration. For the duration, the willing creature you touch has resistance to one damage type of your choice: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder.
• 9. Spirit Guardians: (V,S,M) Concentration. You call forth angelic spirits to protect you. They flit around you to a distance of 15 feet for the duration. When you cast this spell, you can designate any number of creatures you can see to be unaffected by it. An affected creature's speed is halved in the area, and when the creature enters the area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 3d8 radiant damage. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage.

Channel Divinity: 1/1 short rest

Turn Undead.  Expend a use of your Channel Divinity as an action to make each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you to make a Wisdom DC 13. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any damage. Starting at 5th level, when an undead of CR 1/2 or lower fails its saving throw against your Turn Undead feature, the creature is instantly destroyed.

Harness Divine Power.  As a bonus action, expend a use of your Channel Divinity to regain one expended spell slot, the level of which can be no higher than half your proficiency bonus (rounded up).

Artisan's Blessing. You conduct an hour-long ritual that crafts a nonmagical item that must include some metal: a simple or martial weapon, a suit of armor, ten pieces of ammunition, a set of tools, or another metal object (see chapter 5, "Equipment," in the Player's Handbook for examples of these items). The creation is completed at the end of the hour, coalescing in an unoccupied space of your choice on a surface within 5 feet of you.  The thing you create can be something that is worth no more than 100 gp. As part of this ritual, you must lay out metal, which can include coins, with a value equal to the creation. The metal irretrievably coalesces and transforms into the creation at the ritual's end, magically forming even nonmetal parts of the creation. The ritual can create a duplicate of a nonmagical item that contains metal, such as a key, if you possess the original during the ritual.

War Caster

• You have advantage on Constitution saving throws that you make to maintain your concentration on a spell when you take damage.
• You can perform the somatic components of spells even when you have weapons or a shield in one or both hands.
• When a hostile creature's movement provokes an opportunity attack from you, you can use your reaction to cast a spell at the creature, rather than making an opportunity attack. The spell must have a casting time of 1 action and must target only that creature

With the soldier now firmly in the coils of Hunni's magical constrictor, Merituuli moves in, whalebone dagger in hand. He hesitates for a moment, studying the man's face for any sign of regret for his actions, before shaking his head, silently mouthing, "I'm sorry," and performing the cleanest kill he can manage.

The deed done, Merituuli turns his attention towards the soldier engaged with Modri. Still reeling from the burst of light that sprang from the dwarf's chest, the soldier is entirely off-guard against Merituuli's attack, the dagger plunging deeply into a weak spot in his armor.

With a flick of his head, he commands Kalasääski to follow up the assault.

Round 1

The party springs into action and makes surprisingly efficient, if still disturbingly silent, work of two of the guards. The osprey shreds the one in Modri's hands and the giant snake gathers up the other for Hunni and Merituuli to eliminate. Meanwhile a flash of light blinds the last remaining one, under assault from both dwarven war hammers. Artanis moves around behind Coltan to join the fray, flanking the blind and bleeding soldier with Modri and Merituuli. He swings his longsword silently and the silvered steel slips beneath the mans helmet, beheading him. Artanis steadies himself, panting as he scans the silent battlefield for any more enemies. Three men dead in the time it takes to run a hundred metres. He slides his longsword back away and gestures towards the two gate houses; Coltan and he the southern, Modri and Merituuli the northern.

Hunni raises an eyebrow at Artanis, as though to ask, You forget about me? before mouthing some choice words at him. No words actually come out, she is as silent as the others, which would make more sense if she were actually in the range of the silence spell.

With another eyeroll, the snake returns to the gully, and she utters the command word, suddenly audible, and it returns to its staff form in her hands. Pointedly, she spins on her heel and moves to follow Modi and Meri to the north.

On This Linaras, the 27th Day of Brookgreen,
in the 351st Year After the Cataclysm
(Sunday, March 27, 351 AC)

★The 8th Day of the Campaign - About 4:50 AM–5:00 AM★

• Solinari: Waning Gibbous
• Lunitari: Waning Crescent
• Nuitari: Waxing Crescent

Wheelwatch Outpost

(Everyone)

IC

Round 1 (Concluded)

   Modri blinds RDAS2 for a round!

   Colan moves up into RDAS2’s blinded grill and deals 11 fire damage!

   Hunni’s GCS constricts RDAS3 for 18 bludgeoning damage! RDAS3 is restrained!

   Hunni, herself, whips RDAS3 twice, dealing 6 and 7 slashing damage.

   Merituuli searches RDAS3’s eyes for any kind of remorse, but finds only fanatical devotion to Takhisis! RDAS3 shows no fear as Merituuli’s blade slashes his jugular, bleeding him out in seconds.

   Kalasääski fails to hit RDAS2 and returns to boop the snoot of Hunni’s Squeezy Danger Noodle.

   Artanis moves in and finishes off RDAS2.

Round 2

   You all move into your current positions and inspect the mechanisms.

Round 3

   When you all approach the gate controls, both groups notice the same thing. A 5-foot-in-diameter spoked, wooden wheel, very much like a ship’s wheel is attached to an axle jutting from a thick metal faceplate built into the wall. The wheels spin quite freely, doing absolutely nothing, though they sequel loudly before you quickly stop spinning them.

   Judging by the two keyholes on the faceplate, you can tell the metal is about an inch-and-a-half thick. It’s easy to conclude that the locking mechanisms inside are there to engage the doors with the wheels used to open them, rather than prevent the wheels from moving.

   Looking at the different shapes of the keyholes, you can tell that both of the holes need to have a different key inserted.

   Now, if the mechanism requires two different keys, where might you find them? And if it seems like they’re intended to prevent just anyone from “unlocking” them, then likely, the person, or persons with one of the keys, likely doesn’t have the other . . .

   Merituuli mentioned that there were at least two people in the building to the west of you that might be prisoners. Someone in there threatened them . . .

OOC

   Gate Controls. The north and south gates each have a mechanism to open and close that gate. “Unlocking” (actually, engaging the internal mechanism) a gate mechanism requires using two separate gate keys or succeeding on a DC 14 Dexterity (thieves’ tools) check.

   And, just because I’m not an asshole, “GOTCHA!” DM, fair warning:

   It takes 1 minute to fully open or close the gates using the controls. Opening a gate attracts the attention of all creatures in areas W1, W2, W3, and W4.

   I know one of you suggested it, but your mission is to help them re-take the fort, so breaking the mechanism after you open the gates will probably go SUPREMELY unappreciated by the Kalaman army, who will then have no way of closing the gates to defend the fort from further attacks.

   Finally, you are still in initiative. A clock has started ticking, so to speak. You have to find two keys, there are three bodies on the ground and blood everywhere. A patrol could begin on any one of the four walls at any time, and someone is giving something a scrub-down in the stables—who knows how long that’s going to last?

OOC

   Walls. The walls of Wheelwatch are 20 feet high, with towers and fortifications adding an additional 10 feet for each floor.

   Windows. The windows in these walls are 6-inch-wide arrow slits.

   Light. Torches provide bright light throughout the fort.

You can use a shield and still gain this benefit. | Danger SenseAt 2nd level, you gain an uncanny sense of when things nearby aren't as they should be, giving you an edge when you dodge away from danger. You have advantage on Dexterity saving throws against effects that you can see, such as traps and spells. To gain this benefit, you can't be blinded, deafened, or incapacitated. | Reckless AttackStarting at 2nd level, you can throw aside all concern for defense to attack with fierce desperation. When you make your first attack on your turn, you can decide to attack recklessly. Doing so gives you advantage on melee weapon attack rolls using Strength during this turn, but attack rolls against you have advantage until your next turn. | Extra Attack | Fast MovementStarting at 5th level, your speed increases by 10 feet while you aren't wearing heavy armor.

Clever. Modri can't help but appreciate the ingenuity at this point, the lock stopping the exact thing they were trying to accomplish. Still, nothing to be done but push forward. Modri runs back to the fallen enemy soldier furthest away and starts pulling him towards the doors to hopefully before anyone starts walking the walls notice.

Of course, noticing three missing guards is a problem, but not as much as seeing three dead guards with enemy combatants overlooking them.

Three down. Lots more to go...

OOC

Movement: Going back to DAS2

Action: Starts dragging DAS 2 towards doors at W22. By my calculations, with increase Rage movement can get himself to V26 and the dead soldier to W26 in one round.

Bonus Action: Rage ends.

Reaction: SentinelYou have mastered techniques to take advantage of every drop in any enemy's guard, gaining the following benefits.

When you hit a creature with an opportunity attack, the creature's speed becomes 0 for the rest of the turn.
Creatures provoke opportunity attacks from you even if they take the Disengage action before leaving your reach.
When a creature within 5 feet of you makes an attack against a target other than you (and that target doesn't have this feat), you can use your reaction to make a melee weapon attack against the attacking creature. in effect

DR3 vs nonmagical bludgeoning, slashing, piercing. Force all attacks targeted at mount to target Artanis instead. Mount has EvasionIf your mount is subjected to an effect that allows it to make Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, it instead takes no damage if it succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if it fails.

Artanis pulls an apologetic face at the gully dwarf - he hadn't considered it likely she'd be strong enough to help. Hunni didn't seem to hold grudges though - he hoped - and he wasn't even sure if she was being serious, so he quickly turned back to business joining Coltan before the wheel. He stepped forward to start spinning it before the dwarf pointed out the obvious problem in the shape of two keyholes, and no keys. "Don't suppose you've some way of, I don't know, forging up a key or fixing this on the quick do you?" he whispered halfheartedly, casting a glance towards the ominous sounds coming from the building next to them. "Otherwise it looks like we're after finding a key and whatever it is that eats horses." He couldn't say he would regret giving the officer in there what was coming though. Obviously animals needed to eat, but that one had enjoyed the poor beasts suffering.

After his guard drops, Coltan drags the body into the corner next to the southern gate controls. He leans him against a wall, so he looks sleeping despite the blood and burns.

The dwarf is surprised by the two key gate controls whispering to Artanis, "it's as much a prison as stronghold."

"No such blessing, laddy," the Apprentice whispers a reply to the knight. "I'd have better luck repairing the mechanism after damaging it than cleverly opening it."

He looks toward the stables and whispers, "I think you're right. Think we're going to have to pry a key from a dead hand. I'll probably cast through another dome of Silence around the fight after you open the door. Signal the others?"

Cantrips

1. Sacred Flame (V, S). Spell Attack: Dex DC 13, ranged 60 ft., one target.  Fail: 1d8 radiant damage.
2. Word of Radiance (V, M). Spell Attack: Con DC 13, ranged 5 ft., each creature of your choice. Fail: 1d6 radiant damage.
3. Light (V,M).  You touch one object that is no larger than 10 feet in any dimension. Until the spell ends, the object sheds bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet. The light can be colored as you like. Completely covering the object with something opaque blocks the light. The spell ends if you cast it again or dismiss it as an action.  If you target an object held or worn by a hostile creature, that creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw to avoid the spell.

4. Mending (V,S,M). This spell repairs a single break or tear in an object you touch, such as broken chain link, two halves of a broken key, a torn cloak, or a leaking wineskin. As long as the break or tear is no larger than 1 foot in any dimension, you mend it, leaving no trace of the former damage. This spell can physically repair a magic item or construct, but the spell can't restore magic to such an object.

1st level spells prepared

• Forge Domain: Identify (V,S,M) Ritual. You choose one object that you must touch throughout the casting of the spell. If it is a magic item or some other magic-imbued object, you learn its properties and how to use them, whether it requires attunement to use, and how many charges it has, if any. You learn whether any spells are affecting the item and what they are. If the item was created by a spell, you learn which spell created it. If you instead touch a creature throughout the casting, you learn what spells, if any, are currently affecting it.
• Forge Domain: Searing Smite (V). The next time you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack during the spell's duration, your weapon flares with white-hot intensity, and the attack deals an extra 1d6 fire damage to the target and causes the target to ignite in flames. At the start of each of its turns until the spell ends, the target must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 1d6 fire damage. On a successful save, the spell ends. If the target or a creature within 5 feet of it uses an action to put out the flames, or if some other effect douses the flames (such as the target being submerged in water), the spell ends.

1. Bless (V,S,M).  You bless up to three creatures of your choice within 30 ft. Whenever a target makes an attack roll or a saving throw before the spell ends, the target can roll a d4 and add the number rolled to the attack roll or saving throw.  Concentration up to 1 minute.
2. Cure Wounds (V,S).  A creature you touch regains a number of hit points equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
3. Detect Magic (V,S) Concentration, Ritual. For the duration, you sense the presence of magic within 30 feet of you. If you sense magic in this way, you can use your action to see a faint aura around any visible creature or object in the area that bears magic, and you learn its school of magic, if any.  The spell can penetrate most barriers, but it is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt.  Concentration up to 10 minutes.
4. Healing Word (V) Bonus.  A creature of your choice that you can see within range regains hit points equal to 1d4 + your spellcasting ability modifier. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.
5. Guiding Bolt (V,S).  Make a ranged spell attack against the target within 120 feet. On a hit, the target takes 4d6 radiant damage, and the next attack roll made against this target before the end of your next turn has advantage

2nd-Level Spells Prepared

• Forge Domain: Heat Metal (V,S,M) Concentration. Choose a manufactured metal object, such as a metal weapon or a suit of heavy or medium metal armor, that you can see within range. You cause the object to glow red-hot. Any creature in physical contact with the object takes 2d8 fire damage when you cast the spell. Until the spell ends, you can use a bonus action on each of your subsequent turns to cause this damage again. If a creature is holding or wearing the object and takes the damage from it, the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or drop the object if it can. If it doesn't drop the object, it has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the start of your next turn.
• Forge Domain: Magic Weapon (V,S) Concentration. You touch a nonmagical weapon. Until the spell ends, that weapon becomes a magic weapon with a +1 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls.
• 6. Spiritual Weapon (V,S) Bonus. When you cast the spell, you can make a melee spell attack against a creature within 5 feet of the weapon. On a hit, the target takes force damage equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the weapon up to 20 feet and repeat the attack against a creature within 5 feet of it.
• 7. Lesser Restoration (V,S). You touch a creature and can end either one disease or one condition afflicting it. The condition can be blinded, deafened, paralyzed, or poisoned.
• 8. Silence (V,S) Concentration, Ritual. For the duration, no sound can be created within or pass through a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point you choose within range. Any creature or object entirely inside the sphere is immune to thunder damage, and creatures are deafened while entirely inside it. Casting a spell that includes a verbal component is impossible there.

3rd-Level Spells Prepared

• Forge Domain: Elemental Weapon (V,S) Concentration. A nonmagical weapon you touch becomes a magic weapon. Choose one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder. For the duration, the weapon has a +1 bonus to attack rolls and deals an extra 1d4 damage of the chosen type when it hits.
• Forge Domain: Protection from Energy (V,S) Concentration. For the duration, the willing creature you touch has resistance to one damage type of your choice: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder.
• 9. Spirit Guardians: (V,S,M) Concentration. You call forth angelic spirits to protect you. They flit around you to a distance of 15 feet for the duration. When you cast this spell, you can designate any number of creatures you can see to be unaffected by it. An affected creature's speed is halved in the area, and when the creature enters the area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 3d8 radiant damage. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage.

Channel Divinity: 1/1 short rest

Turn Undead.  Expend a use of your Channel Divinity as an action to make each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you to make a Wisdom DC 13. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any damage. Starting at 5th level, when an undead of CR 1/2 or lower fails its saving throw against your Turn Undead feature, the creature is instantly destroyed.

Harness Divine Power.  As a bonus action, expend a use of your Channel Divinity to regain one expended spell slot, the level of which can be no higher than half your proficiency bonus (rounded up).

Artisan's Blessing. You conduct an hour-long ritual that crafts a nonmagical item that must include some metal: a simple or martial weapon, a suit of armor, ten pieces of ammunition, a set of tools, or another metal object (see chapter 5, "Equipment," in the Player's Handbook for examples of these items). The creation is completed at the end of the hour, coalescing in an unoccupied space of your choice on a surface within 5 feet of you.  The thing you create can be something that is worth no more than 100 gp. As part of this ritual, you must lay out metal, which can include coins, with a value equal to the creation. The metal irretrievably coalesces and transforms into the creation at the ritual's end, magically forming even nonmetal parts of the creation. The ritual can create a duplicate of a nonmagical item that contains metal, such as a key, if you possess the original during the ritual.

War Caster

• You have advantage on Constitution saving throws that you make to maintain your concentration on a spell when you take damage.
• You can perform the somatic components of spells even when you have weapons or a shield in one or both hands.
• When a hostile creature's movement provokes an opportunity attack from you, you can use your reaction to cast a spell at the creature, rather than making an opportunity attack. The spell must have a casting time of 1 action and must target only that creature

Merituuli frowns as he studies the gate controls with Modri and Hunni, muttering softly, "Wish the Trance had shown me ancestors with thievery skills right about now..." He assists Modri in pulling the bodies of the slain soldiers into more secluded corners - at the very least it would buy them some time... right?

He glances over to Artanis and Coltan, who seem to be in a similar predicament with their gate, and waves them over to discuss. Before moving over, he mentions to Modri and Hunni, "The building to the west of us may be our best start. Either the commander has two disorderly underlings or two prisoners, and we can use both of those situations to our advantage."

Dealing 5 slashing damage to the net (AC 10) also frees the creature without harming it, ending the effect and destroying the net.

You can also sacrifice one of your attacks when you take the Attack action to command the beast to take the Attack action. If you are incapacitated, the beast can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.

Other:

Favored Foe. When you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can call on your mystical bond with nature to mark the target as your favored enemy for 1 minute or until you lose your concentration (as if you were concentrating on a spell).

The first time on each of your turns that you hit the favored enemy and deal damage to it, including when you mark it, you can increase that damage by 1d4.

You can use this feature to mark a favored enemy a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

This feature’s extra damage increases when you reach certain levels in this class: to 1d6 at 6th level and to 1d8 at 14th level.

Hunni shrugs to Meri. "Two is too many. But we do what we can." She seems resigned to their fate.

Mostly, she tries to help the others, but gets ready to attack wherever she is pointed to next.

Wheelwatch Outpost

(Everyone)

IC

Round 4

   Coltan, Merituuli, and Modri, each help drag bodies as far as they can in the round. There are large patches of blood on the ground staining the dirt where the three soldiers died!

Jail Cells

   Arlo, Fairla, and Vigdan, you three have been sleeping the night away, about as comfortably as you possibly can. You’ve long since tuned out Elgo, the kender skirmisher, but you get awoken when Captain Vanse threatens to garrote the kender woman if she doesn’t shut up.

   Captain Vanse gets up and heads out, talking about feeding Ixenkuhri and giving her a bath. It’s still dark out. It must be about four in the morning!

   Something’s odd, though. You’re very used to the repetitive marching of armored men in the courtyard, all day, every day. Patrolling back and fourth. But now, something’s different. It’s quiet. REALLY quiet. No marching, no talking, no grousing about the terrible food. No stomping on the dirt with metal grieves. It’s unnervingly, really, really quiet.

   “Hey!” Elgo, says, breaking the eerie silence. “I’ve been saving this for a whiles.” She reaches into her own mouth and after an effort that nearly results in a pool of vomit on the floor—somehow she stops herself gagging in the nick of time—she produces a lockpick. “Sures, they took me picks set away, but not like I’mma let them take all’a thems!”

   After a lack of success, she holds up the still-wet lockpick and says, “any’ayas can pick yer cell door? . . . Cell Door . . . Cell ’o Door . . . Cellar Door? Selladoor . . . ah, yeah, the most beautiful phrase in common, I heard a man say once! Let me tells you about the time that . . .”

   Lanal looks at Arlo, Fairla, and Vigdan and shrugs. “I think that’s the thirty-seventh time of the ‘cellar door’ story . . . well, she brings up a good point. Any of you three able to pick a lock?”

   “Yeah, soz, iff’n yas can pick the sellador, then maybes we can gets our stuffs back. Dids they takes yer stuffs too?”

   In fact, you do remember all your spell components, lockpicks, and any other equipment was moved somewhere else—probably wherever they took Elgo’s hoopack.

OOC

   Walls. The walls of Wheelwatch are 20 feet high, with towers and fortifications adding an additional 10 feet for each floor.

   Windows. The windows in these walls are 6-inch-wide arrow slits.

   Light. Torches provide bright light throughout the fort.

---

   Cell Door Lock. You can pick the lock of your cell with a DC 15 Dexterity (thieves’ tools) check.

   Ixenkuhri. Anyone who understands draconicknows that “Ixenkuhri” means “Fire River”.

---

   Gate Controls. The north and south gates each have a mechanism to open and close that gate. “Unlocking” (actually, engaging the internal mechanism) a gate mechanism requires using two separate gate keys or succeeding on a DC 14 Dexterity (thieves’ tools) check.

   And, just because I’m not an asshole, “GOTCHA!” DM, fair warning:

   It takes 1 minute to fully open or close the gates using the controls. Opening a gate attracts the attention of all creatures in areas W1, W2, W3, and W4.

   I know one of you suggested it, but your mission is to help them re-take the fort, so breaking the mechanism after you open the gates will probably go SUPREMELY unappreciated by the Kalaman army, who will then have no way of closing the gates to defend the fort from further attacks.

   Finally, you are still in initiative. A clock has started ticking, so to speak. You have to find two keys, there are three bodies on the ground and blood everywhere. A patrol could begin on any one of the four walls at any time, and someone is giving something a scrub-down in the stables—who knows how long that’s going to last?

DR3 vs nonmagical bludgeoning, slashing, piercing. Force all attacks targeted at mount to target Artanis instead. Mount has EvasionIf your mount is subjected to an effect that allows it to make Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, it instead takes no damage if it succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if it fails.

Artanis manages to both muster, and suppress, a little humour as he raises his hand to wave over the others at Coltan's suggestion - only to notice Merituuli doing the same to them. For a moment he considers just waving more forcefully, then shrugs and sighs. There were more of their party that way. He heads over for a hushed conversation. "I assume you found the same as us, two locks and no keys," he whispers with pained expression. "I asked Coltan if Reorx could work a little magic as well, but he thinks finding the keys are our best bet. I figured the officer we saw heading into the stables might have at least one?"

A friendly creature can only gain one additional attack from this feature per round from this feature.

Bonus Actions:

   Rallying Mark As a bonus action, you can expend a number of Leadership Dice (up to your per turn limit) to rally your allies to attack a hostile creature within 60 feet of you.

   Helpful Word As a bonus action, you can spend a Leadership Die to take the Help action. When you use the Help action to aid an ally in attacking a creature, the target of that attack can be within 30 feet of you, rather than within 5 feet of you, if your ally can see or hear you.

   Commanding Rally As a bonus action, you can command one ally within 30 feet of yourself to attack. If that ally can see or hear you, they can immediately make one weapon attack as a reaction.

  Leadership Dice (d6). 4/5 (Short Rest, 1/turn)

  Lead the Charge. When you roll initiative you gain temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus (6 THP).
