Miasma thunders forward, shoving past the cages as they burst into the room, crossing halfway to the large ape, who distracted by the new arrival, hurls the chunk of desk at Miasma, staggering the boar.

Throw at Miasma: 2D20.LOW(1)+6 = [15, 15]+6 = 21
4D6+4 = [4, 2, 6, 4]+4 = 20


((Miasma, give me a Perception check please. Gomz, your movement gets you to the doorway, you can dash to move further, or stay put and use your action for something else. You can also give me a Perception check, then Sluj will be up after Gomz.))

Gomz halts at the door to look things over before he commits. He'll take dodge this time around while he figures out where the biggest threat is.

perception: 1D20-1 = [15]-1 = 14

Gomz, the big gray not-Master with the collar around its neck would seem to be the biggest threat.

((Don't have a climb speed, so would be 1/2 movement to move up something climbable, but can't just cling to the walls.))

Sluj scrambles up, joining the two apes on the platform.

((Just as a note, Sluj-newt's current AC is 14, can use an action next turn to re-equip your shield if you want.))

Slizard moves to the big gray not master and stabs with its stab tail!

Tail stab: 1D20+4 = [8]+4 = 12
2D4+2 = [3, 4]+2 = 9


((Assumed proficiency and +2 for strength on the attack, which may not be appropriate given the damage is not physical.))

Slizard moves up and jabs their tail into the big ape, who grunts as the dark blade slips into his flesh.

The two apes on the platform with Sluj leap away, hooting and howling as they swing their way to the other platforms. ((Sluj may make an attack at either the one moving to the NE or SE platform.))

The one moving to the SE dashes to reach it, while the ape on that platform jumps up and down and hoots, pointing at the horror that is Gomz lurking in the doorway, before hurling a chunk of debris down on him, where it bounces harmlessly off his carapace.

Ape throw at Gomz: 2D20.LOW(1)+5 = [2, 12]+5 = 7 MISS


The two apes on the NE platform throw junk at Sluj, he ducks the first one, but is hit by the second.

Ape throws at Sluj: 1D20+5 = [3]+5 = 8 MISS
1D20+5 = [9]+5 = 14
1D6+3 = [6]+3 = 9

Miasma charges the silverback, but their tusks swing wide.

The silverback pounds their chest and swings a large fist at Miasma, who catches it on their tusks and is able to deflect it wide, throwing the beast off balance and making their second swing at Slem miss as well!

Fist at Miasma: 1D20+6 = [5]+6 = 11 MISS

Fist at Slem: 1D20+6 = [2]+6 = 8 MISS

((Gomz! It would take a dash to get to melee with the silverback.))

Gomz squeezes by on Slem's right.

Sluj goes to swing hand over hand across to where they'd surely dispatch those apes easily and hand their bones to siblings... but this new form is still new, and their hand slips and they begin to plummet!

((Give me a DEX save, if you beat DC 15, you'll be able to catch the edge of the platform and haul yourself back up. On a fail, you'll take the fall damage as you drop to the floor.))

Sluj manages to scramble back onto the platform, narrowly avoiding a tumble.

(Slizard's up!)

Slizard jabs their tail into the silverback! They howl in pain as the dark blade slips into them.

The small apes across from Sluj hurl debris at him, but they seem to be running out of things to throw.

Throw at Sluj: 1D20+5 = [12]+5 = 17
1D6+3 = [6]+3 = 9
1D20+5 = [14]+5 = 19
1D6+3 = [2]+3 = 5


However, it shatters his borrowed bones, and goo sloughs from the platform as the firenewt body loses integrity.

The other two throw things down at Gomz, but they too look to be running out of projectiles.

Throw at Gomz: 1D20+5 = [11]+5 = 16
1D6+3 = [3]+3 = 6
1D20+5 = [17]+5 = 22
1D6+3 = [2]+3 = 5

((Miasma!))

((I was recently reminded in Rodgeir's game that I did a bad job with Perception/passive stuff... you all see the collar on the silverback's neck and the necks of the small apes if you have visual on them.))
