I'm wondering if I should amend my amendment given the arrows now flying that way. At the very least, I'll choose my angle carefully.

But alternatively I could stay back and guard one of the ranged in case the hag charges or blinks again.

Also...what to be done about Lifthrasil's multiple personality issue?




SmartyFartyParty, Human Paladin
Hammer + 3 of stuff, plus a spare silver hammer
Full Plate + Shield

I believe I have
2x heal (2 of 4 used)
3 x Turn Undead (1 of 4 used)
1 x Protection Bubble (1 of 2 used)
2 x immunity to fear (0 of 2 used)

Per doc I'm charismatic and can potentially talk us out of trouble, though I don't see how that's applicable at this stage in the combat. Perhaps if we get the ring/arm off the 2nd, we can negotiate a surrender of the stocky hag to let the tall one live.

Alternatively I could try negotiating with Taz, but I'm not clear what his goals are besides random chaos.

paladin181: *Roosevelt smashes his morningstar at the hand of the hag, and she dodges as spikes start to grow from her skin. She reaches out for him and he deftly avoids her grasp as she tries to capture him. A realization dawns on him as the silenced hag is driven down: Roosevelt the paladin with a blunt force melee weapon is useless against this foe.*
Blunt weapons work just fine, I have been attacking with the holy mace, but if you'd like, you can borrow my silver-lined sword for the fight. (in real life blunt weapons work great, this isn't a rock-paper-scissors game, so blunt weapons work here too unless the enemies have special magical protection - and they might do great against those spikes)

paladin181: *He backs away, but stays close enough that his protection spell will still encompass 3 of those gathered around the evil witch so that they may be protected.
By the way, what protective spell are you using? I thought you cast Protective Bubble 3x, in which case you don't need to remain in anyone's vicinity, it's just like the Magic Shield.

RedFireGaming: Roark casts Cure Poison on SmartyFartBlart
"Don't be such a baby, it's only poison." Roark says. "Nothing to be so dramatic about. I get poisoned all the time, and look at me."

bler144: Much obliged.

Assuming I can get up (trying to get clarification on my health aside from the poison), I'm assuming that my blunt personality (and weapons) would be better purposed for engaging the stocky one at least to keep her distracted, what with all the sharp/serrated folks gathered on the tall one.

Thoughts/agree/disagree? I could go for issuing a noggin' smashing if it's called for.
I'm not sure what we can do about Thras mid-combat, especially as we don't know if that will hurt him or not. Beldarion is trying to engage him, so let's see how that works out before splitting our forces instead of fighting the hags - maybe we can talk to Taz after the fight and find out what happens.

Right now Roark, Max, Triock and potentially Og'rialt (depending on whether he finds the Drow or not) are attacking the tall hag, with Svartalf, Aslain, Rudy and his bear attacking the stocky one. Beldarion will engage a hag if he doesn't find Thras (and seems to be nearer to the stocky one, but locations change all the time), Roosevelt might change his mind if he reads my post and decidees to attack the tall hag, and Babargh too when he's online.

So I think it's up to you, I'm going to go for the tall one just to be sure and head for the stocky one if the tall one is defeated by the time it's my turn. It could be a good idea to move with svartalf though, so that he's not going to end up being the only melee fighter engaging her - right now only he's the one 100% fighting her, as Beldarion might not reach her.

aRealCyborg: hm i was thinking that would have gone different... I didn't even think i was close the the hag...
also it seems my head was thrown at 35 - Aslain Melemir before i was beheaded... just a thought.

But I am dead thanks for letting me have a great time.
If someone resurrects me thanks before hand (just make sure to put my head near the body,) I probably will never do that again lol.
I did warn you that taking naps in the middle of combat is not a good idea, with the hags nearby, but you know for the next time. Even in video games you usually can't rest when you're in the middle of combat or nearby enemeis, and given that this is homebrew dnd (or something like that), you usually don't get any bonuses for sleeping, esp. as there was nothing wrong with your character (like being tired).

If you can be resurrected, and svartalf isn't dead and resurrectable by the time combat is over, since I promised him and Triock I'd back them up, I'll rez you! Also Roark knows resurrect, so if you can be and I'm using mine on someone else, I'm pretty sure he might be kind enough to help you! :)

MaxFulvus: While she is injured, behind my shield, I quickly raise my battleaxe to cut her ringed hand. Meanwhile, the others (Triock, Babargh, Roark, Roosevelt and all around) try to cut her into pieces !

Protect yourself and join me in a melee combat against the tall hag ! The ringed hand is the priority, then behead her and slash her until it remains nothing !
I'm disappointed you haven't mentioned me too, since I've been fighting the tall hag as well and haven't been able to reach her due to the scorpion previously and then casting too much spells this turn. Otherwise I'm near her as well!

Sorry, but it's hard to have a clear vision of each individual situation and the distance between each other. So, if you join us, go ahead, but only in close combat, because we are already at least 3 around her !

41 - Zayd ibn Yasin - Human Ranger

Zayd's decides only to unleashed his arrows to the stocky hag only when he sure that that the hag couldn't do anything about it. He choose to bide his time waiting for an opening.

(It's a protection from Evil bubble, and I only have 1 cast. It affects 3 people closest to me.)

Fine. Time to get physical. I rise to have a bit more freedom of movement. I still have the staff in the hand that I control and I smash it over the head of Taz. If necessary, I repeat that until he is out.

Are you sure? Doc told me Protection from Evil is only for 1 person, so unlike the Globe of Protection it doesn't shield more people. Given that he told me on Turn 9, it's most likely the most accurate and up-to-date info. DnD also has it as a 1-person spell, so you shoould assume it protects only yourself unless/until Doc says otherwise.

Your body isn't totally decimated so I'll wait until Doc replies and the combat is over (unless it needs to be done now).

Keep in mind that I am casting Ice Lance on the stocky Hag. Please take care not to get hit by it.

His head has literally been torn out. I seriously doubt that a resurrect is possible.

(Well, I was told the last time I cast it that it affected those around me as well like an aura...? Unless we're changing the rules mid game..)

Ok. Assuming cure poison gets me back up (and pending a decision on whether I need a heal), I'm sticking with the plan of approaching the stocky hag, in a defensive tanky posture staying clear of ranged lines and trying to get her turned away from ranged.

I'll only actually attack if she has her back to me, to stay clear of ice lances and arrows and such.

I'll use my high charisma to try to persuade her to share her weaknesses.

jonridan: I shoot several arrows at the Tall Hag, unless there's too many people around her (don't want to hurt or kill anyone but the hags). Otherwise I shoot as many arrows as possible at the Stocky Hag. If too many people are in the way (I can't make arrows avoid obstacles, yet...) then I just reposition myself in the middle of the room and focus on finding the Drow that stole from Og'rialt.
You should target the stocky hag, as the tall hag is surrounded by fierce adventurers who don't want to receive an arrow in the ass, or worst !

Per communication with Doc, I will also cast heal upon myself, as apparently I'm rather not well
