Re: Cyre Red (IC)
Seeing everyone depart, Adam takes another look into the tavern, before nodding, once. "I think we should be away from this place. We have a vault to find." With that, he starts walking, continuing along the road to Kalazart.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
When you make a quick exit from the building, the music seems to grow more enchanting, the food scent more delectable, and the temperature even more comforting - but this shift is more offputting than inviting. It even seems to shake slightly when the last of you crosses the threshold, as if the place is upset you have left. But no matter how siren the song, the dice have spoken and they advised only woe - and so trusting in tools of chance you abandon the town and press on eastwards towards Kalazart, though it's still days away.
Not far out of town, you spot a tower stood alone atop a small hill on your route, in a partial state of disrepair. Such towers were put up across the country during the Last War to serve as communications stations to report on any local situations, or give forewarning of any invasions that might be taking place. From the outside, this tower looks entirely typical for such a purpose. Many of these watchposts held small House Sivis stations to help facilitate the instant communication that a war requires.
The exterior is overgrown with a thick layer of ivy and vines, blocking your entrance unless removed.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
Leaving the strange Inn behind, it didn't take long before another, ancient, abandoned structure came into sight, the ancient tower covered in ivy and vines, and Adam frowns as he examines it. No one would have let vines grow up around a tower, and after the Mourning, any growth wasn't natural. But the tower could also contain useful information, and from the vantage it provided, it might be possible to see something else of use, although The Iron Witch could simply fly up and look.
Spoiler: OOC
Doing some examination, to investigate the ever handy tower, to see if there is something unusual about the vines, or the tower's position.

Conditions:
Svek reluctantly leaves the welcoming tavern, half wanting to go back despite Adam's admonishment. He mopes a little at first but slowly regains his purpose, moving his legs quickly to keep up with his taller companions, sometimes taking short hops with his wings to catch up.
When they get to the tower, he is initially hesitant and wants to press on. But Adam seems interested in knowing what's inside so Svek volunteers to investigate.
"I'll take a look"
From the bast for the tower, he unfurls his wings and flys up, trying to avoid the arrow slits until he is right upon one. Once there, he grabs the vines to steady himself and quickly peaks in the arrow slit, trying to see inside the tower.Spoiler: OOC

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
The vine growth around the tower appears unnaturally thick to Adam's eyes, especially given the relatively moderate (dull) grass around the base, the vine's seem exceedingly lively and abundant. The tower itself doesn't seem out of place though - given its position it seems a geographically appropriate position for one of the many Cyran guard towers.
Unable to fit through the slit, Svek nevertheless spies two unmoving bodies on the floor inside the small upper room of the tower. From their size and location, they are likely gnomes, but a closer inspection would be needed to determine details. You can't see any signs of external wounds or blood. You can see little else due to the limitations on your vision, but there's a desk beyond the bodies.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
Adam listens as Svek explains what he saw, and suggests a few options. "I think standing back, and seeing how the vines respond to a cantrip or two is an excellent idea. I can roll the dice again, but they become increasingly less reliable the more I use them, and here, danger is clear."

The tower could hold information helping us in the right direction if nothing else. But someone, or something wants us out of there. All the more reason to investigate. He draws his silvery blade. It was part to show that shifters were in no part lycanthropes, and partially to defend himself from demons and werebeasts. I'd prefer the blade to spells, but I assume we have announced our arrival to the surrounding area loud and clear, so we might as well barge in flames ablazing. With that, Surge positons himself at a range from the tower, safely behind any melee that could break out.

"Well then, shall we?" finding no reason to object to the plan, Aanash stands safely back and hurls a ghostly claw at the base of the tower, which scratches at the vines leaving necrotic, blighted marks. If they had any enchantments causing them to regrow when damaged, his magic would hopefully hold them at bay.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
The cantrips fly out at the vinewrapped tower, and the unusual plantlife responds almost immediately, retreating from the crumbling tower to coalesce into vast plant creatures that twist and shudder with each motion. They detract from the walls with loud slams, and begin to make their approach. One - the creature that 'emerged' from the vines covering the tower door - appears smaller, though no less dangerous from the rest.

The eruption of hostile vegetation brings a (wider) smile to Aanash's face. While he is eager to do battle, he is also no fool. "The large ones look slow. Keep your distance, and make them come to us," he advises, launching another skeletal claw at the one he already provoked.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
The lumbering mass of vines twitches angrily in response to Aanash's spell, and its companion lumbers forward on massive tree-trunk sized vine groups, whipping its barbed tendrils back and forth across the mournling, who nimbly evades two swipes but the third one catches him across the face. The wound hisses with the pain of the scratch, but moreso with the sizzle of poison.
When Surge looses his two arrows at the smaller vine creature they both slice through its writhing form and it - somehow - hisses in anger, slopping forward on eternally turning vines to retaliate against the shifter. It forms two massive fists which it slams into Surge, before unleashing a vast number of them at the foes around it. Adam manages to barely deflect it in time with his shield, but Surge, Honor, and Iron Witch all find themselves ensnared by thorny vines that tear at their bodies even while they struggle against them. It pulls the ensnared individuals back towards the other vine creatures, bringing you closer towards the tower.
Spoiler: Map
Aanash hits with Chill Touch.
Surge hits with both their shots.
The smaller creature moves forward and slams Surge twice for 9 and 8 bludgeoning damage, then unleashes a tendril against Adam, Surge, Honor, and Iron Witch. Only Adam evades.
Surge takes 7 piercing plus 5 poison.
Honor takes 9 piercing plus 6 poison.
Iron Witch takes 8 piercing plus 3 poison.
In addition, those hit by the tendrils are grappled by it.
The far right vine creature moves to Aanash - misses, crits, and then misses again. Feast or famine. He takes 9 piercing and 5 poison.
As always, damage numbers are before any reductions/resistances.
I know Archangel said they wouldn't be available the next few days - I'll give them a day just in case they get an opportunity, else I'll deploy a twilight sanctuary. It also gives the party a short moment to assess the situation before G1 moves.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
Darkness raises up from Adam to safely nestle the party in its dim-yet-welcoming bosom, but the masses of vines continue on unperturbed. Following the lead of their lord, two more move to attack, whipping their vines and Surge and Iron Witch. Even grappled by the lord the pair manage to evade most of the attacks, but the volume of attacks means that eventually they do strike true.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
Svek's fireball washes over the tower, cracking its door, but more importantly over the collected plantlife, immediately igniting all except the 'small' one. Already injured, one falls into a pile of ash, while the others are now wreathed in flames, their life fast turning to cinders before your eyes. They lack any sense of self preservation though, and rush forwards to add your biomass to their own. Instead of the whipping vines they used previously, now aflame their masses form into blunt objects wreathed in fire that slam down on Honor, and a particularly vicious pair of strikes on Svek.
Spoiler: Map
Fireball blows up the most injured one and severely damages the three other big ones. They'ree not looking healthy. Lord makes their dex save. All except the lord (and the one on the far right) are now set on fire. The one attacking Aanash has yet to take damage.
Honor hits once on the lord, misses the other one. Fire does seem particularly effective against them all though!
A big'un moves in over his dead companion and smacks Honor once for 7 bludgeoning and 4 FIRE damage.
The other one chases Svek, using their reach to stretch over Adam's head. They crit once, and hit again, even if Shield had been used, for a total of 19 bludgeoning and 6 fire.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
Another wave of fire washes over the battlefield from Iron Witch, though even now the small leader of the plant creatures manages to evade it, throwing up a wall of vines so that only the edges of his body are licked by flames instead of being fully engulfed. His flanking allies are not so lucky, taking the full brunt of the fire that causes them to crumble to ash. Though one of Surge's arrows pierces the still-standing creature, it nevertheless moves back forward, seeking to again restrict his foes, unleashing another wave of vines against the un-grappled enemies. Having seen it once, Adam, Svek and the Witchling all evade, but the Iron Witch seems to have earned the creature's ire and focus. The vines ensnare her and drag her back to the ground with full force, scraping against flesh with envenomed thorns.
Aanash's quick flame slice knocks his own foe off guard, and when it tries to retaliate the nimble mourning either successfully endures or simply evades the strikes, causing him no immediate or lasting harm.
Spoiler: Map
Aanash hits, dealing a total of 14 after fire vulnerability. His opponent retaliates with three attacks, all of which miss.
Iron Witch's fireball blows up two more of the big ones who fail their saves. Lord makes their save, and is hit once by Surge. Pretty injured, but still standing.
He moves south and unleashes another tendril storm - he misses Witchling, Svek and Adam but hits Iron Witch, grappling her and dropping her speed to 0, making her fall to the ground. She takes 9 bludgeoning fall damage, 6 slashing and 4 poison from the tendrils.
The lord then misses both his claw attacks.
Enemy G1 is dead, so Adam, Honour, and Svek are now up.
Initiative order:
Surge: 20 (due to advantage from Twilight cleric)
Aanash: (1d20)[19]
G3: (1d20)[19]
Adam: (1d20)[17]

He sees an opening. He realizes he's not helping his friends by staying here and is only providing an additional target for the creatures, so he briefly disappears and then reappears to the south.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)

Concentrating on:

Honor feels the heat of the burning vine heaps around him, and as one lashes out in it's death throes some of the flame kisses his body, but the twilight invigoration of Adam's devotion keep the worst of the harm away from him. He turns to the smallest of the plant creatures and unleashes a rhythmic series of blows from his hammer to try to end this fight. Then the shielding field of Adam's spell reinforces itself and wreaths the paladin in defensive energy again.
Spoiler: OOCRolling 2 attacks. (1d20+7)[20] for (2d6+4)[1][3](4) (plus a 6 rolled on a reroll for 5 more damage) and (2d6)[3][2](5) (rerolling 2 to a 4 for 2 more damage) fire damage.

Re: Cyre Red (IC)
Svek's acid washes over the lord of vines, whose focus on ensnaring Iron Witch kept it from adequately evading. Its plant matter sizzles, and Honor uses its proximity and position to lay on the hurt, cutting through the creature's weakened exterior to bisect it. A burst of radiant maul erupts from its inner core as the massive hammerhead lodges in its centre, causing a blinding flash as the creature turns to ash before you. The vines wrapping you all fall away, allowing freedom once more.
Adam's own foe barely seems to shake through the magic that tolls around it, perhaps kept at bay by the flames, and brings down its massive bulk on the cleric once more with two blunt strikes that leave the man winded, and not a little bit singed, for his troubles.
Spoiler: Map
The lord fails its save vs. acid splash, and with Honor's damage they pair of Warforged and Kobold finish him off. All grappled creatures are now freed.
The big 'un barely makes it save vs Adam's TtD. It then hits him twice, for a total of 14 bludgeoning and 6 fire damage.
Iron Witch, Aanash, and Surge are now up.

Surge: 20 (due to advantage from Twilight cleric)
