Here, I'll provide cover going back, I got my magic to count on."

Holger will give Tess the torch (or drop it behind him if the other cost an action) before striking the blight with his daggers, oblivious of the twig blight. He's a bit too worried about Tess getting the torch and moving away and utterly fails to harm the blight.

Holger perception: 1D20+1 = [4]+1 = 5

Holger daggers: 1D20+5 = [1]+5 = 6
1D20+5 = [3]+5 = 8

"Maji's growling at something behind us... We might be pinned in here"

On her turn, she'll accept the torch (what kind of action is that spider?) and move as far as Maji. Since he's growling and pointing, she's not going to dash off past him.

She will use her thaumaturgy to make the floor rumble as far to the left as possible in the hopes of distracting the skeleton blights again. She won't do it if she thinks the effect might reach maji...

[Arch Lich Burns]

(you think maji would think badly of you if you are doing something that can save our hides?)

[spiderwrangler]

Holger hands off the torch and stabs in futility at the blight.

Tess grabs the torch and moves up behind Maji, and almost get ready to make rumbles happen, but Maji is right next to you, and in the winding passage, would definitely notice the rumblings, and possibly you as the cause.

((You are able to do minor interaction stuff as part of your move I think (open an unlocked door, etc.) so I'll say torch grabbing is part of that.))

The wounded skeletal blight repays Holger for the earlier firebolt, tearing into the sorcerer with bony arms.

A needle blight strides into the torchlight and fires at Maji, but the spray arcs wide even in the close quarters and clatters against stone.

"Holger, we've got more coming behind us! You need to use your magic before they swarm us!"

[Arch Lich Burns]

Maji motions Tess to come here before changing to a wolf and walking to needle bight, reading action to attack it when tess is by him.

[spiderwrangler]

With a snarl, fur bursts forth from Maji as his form shrinks down into that of a wolf.

((If you're trying for pack tactics, that is based on Tess being near the blight, not near you. If you move forward, she has no way to get near it. If you're trying for something else, that's fine, just let me know if you want to move forward or not.))

[Arch Lich Burns]

Derp. I misread pact tactics. That's fine i will just bite it then. EDIT: I will wait until tess tries to overrun it first and bite it anyways regardless of results.
Bite attack, dc 11 str or prone: 1D20+4 = [9]+4 = 13

[spiderwrangler]

((You don't have any reason to think she is going to try to overrun. What is Maji doing? Stepping up and biting? Staying put and holding attack?))

[Arch Lich Burns]

I'll step up and bite.

[spiderwrangler]

Maji-wolf find a not too spiny part of the needle blight's leg and latches on, thrashing as he tried to topple the creature. Sap oozes out, but the blight keeps its footing.

Needlemen: STR Save: 1D20+1 = [14]+1 = 15

The clatter of wooden feet announces the arrival of more twig blights.

((All right, I love maji's new icon ))

[Theis2]

Holger sees Tess is still more or less behind him and decides to keep fighting.

"Damn blights, can't put them to sleep here without risking we are the targets. Expect special magic when it get's too close to me and yell for the others if possible."


Holger daggers: 1D20+5 = [7]+5 = 12
1D20+5 = [13]+5 = 18
Dagger damage: 1D4+3 = [1]+3 = 4
1D4 = [1] = 1

[thinkslogically]

Nemeia steps up one square and fires an arrow at the needle blight, trying unsuccessfully to take advantage of the confusion Maji is causing.

[spiderwrangler]

Holger: Your first dagger clatters off bone, and while you manage to drive the second into some viney matter, it doesn't do a whole lot of damage.

Tess: Your arrow goes wide and clatters off stone.

The skeletal blight swings at Holger...

Don't recall where you're at spell slot wise, but I think that's in your shield range if you were going to use it?
Skeleblight attack on Holger: 1D20+4 = [12]+4 = 16

Lacking distance to fire at Maji, the needlemen claws at the wolf instead, raking across his muzzle for 4 damage.

Siiiigh Damnit.

[Lurks_In_Shadows]

(( I guess Randy's first in line.))

[NotStickFigures]

Coljin will go second

[spiderwrangler]

Maji: You snap at the needle blight, but it's a bit more ready for you and manages to avoid your teeth.

[Theis2]

I'm not sure, but I think I've used mage armor (obviously) and shield, so two left after spending my sorcerer points,

Anyways, wild magic!
Wild surge: 1D100 = [71] = 71

[spiderwrangler]

((I think there was a use of shield earlier? You using that here, and Tides was toggled to Surge?))

[Theis2]

Sorry, just woke up when posting xD
Yeah I've used tide of Chaos before in order to trig the wild magic

Well, at least if Holger blows up, the rest of us are safe.
