Two queries:
-We did not get a chance to long rest after the ankheg fight correct? Just confirming for the sake of what resources yet remain.
-You did not seem to include a smite effect on my last turn. In the perhaps unlikely event I'm still standing for the next one, is that still available?

I have to say, poor Zinna, someone's determined to keep her on the ground.

The Maker says...

You had an opportunity for a short rest after that encounter. Looking back I did calculate that round incorrectly; but your bonus attack action only does a d4+Strength bludgeoning damage rather than a d10 but I didn't include the smite because the standard attack and bonus attack was enough to kill the orc and the smite would have been wasted (Though the roll on the bonus damage would have had to have been a 4). We will call it as is and you can save the smite for the next round if Leo is still standing.

So it would seem *evil smile* though I will say she is not the only one being targeted.

Thank you for the sympathy Daishain. I failed it yet again. Sorry. I was going to try to help you with what I could. She has had a rough time on this adventure. She was never even wounded in the first one. I hope we survive this encounter. I feel as you do. Our characters in both games are in almost the exact same situation..

Aye, thank you for trying. Too bad the pally save aura doesn't come online this soon, you'd have passed with just a little nudge. .

Unfortunately, even if Leo was in a position to notice and try to do something about it now, he's completely tapped out of LOH reserve at the moment.

Wow. That was a terrible round. It at least one of us doesn't die I will be shocked. I think the three (Two really since Zinna is no help currently) of us that took the charge will not last much longer barring a miracle of some sort. Carrick and Corren can get away plus Malek at least. We might be rolling new characters soon. .

Indeed, someone seems to want Zinna alive, they might intervene enough to pull her out, but Leo's probably going down for the count this round. Mradoric can run away for a while, but unless something distracts them from chasing, he'll still be easily in sight of the orc hoard when he runs out of ki and they become faster than he is once more.

I was really sorry to see that Heroism spell vanish thanks to those bastards with the poison darts, it could have kept me going another 2 rounds at the current rate of HP loss. More likely just one more, but still.

Yeah, I bet you wish we still had Malek around… this is going to get worse before, or even IF, it gets better.

No use all of us dying here though. At least he can warn the village. If he had stayed the orcs could have killed him pretty quickly. We shouldn't have made our stand here. The only advantage we had was mobility with our horses. We could have led them on and spread them out. Instead we played right into their hands. If somehow we survive this Zinna is going to be very irate with young Mradoric for not following the plan. Corren and Carrick are at least in position to get away once the goblins are taken care of. This is very fitting for Sir Leo. Fighting a suicidal heroic last stand against overwhelming odds to save a village. You can't find a much better way for a paladin to die than that. Hopefully he doesn't die or any of us for that matter.
