Of course im crying but at least he died doing what he loved most: sacrificing himself and blowing shit up

OK, so I don't know why I *didn't* expect we'd have to fight the dragon, in retrospect, but I didn't, so.... SURPRISE BOSS FIGHT REPORT.

Starting state of play: he a chonky boy. Absolute unit.

Our buddy Ansur has 400 HP and is level SEVENTEEN to our twelve, so this is not going to be easy per se. (For comparison to recent boss battles - Orin and Cazador were both level 12, Viconica was level 11, and Gortash was level 9. So yeah. Ansur is CHONKY.)

Examining his features and such, we see that he's immune to lightning and poison and resistant to necrotic. All of this is basically fine. His Great Wyrm's Scales reduce all incoming damage by 2, he can't be polymorphed, and he has advantage on most saving throws.

None of this seems insurmountable, and his AC is a quite reasonable 19, so there is perhaps reason to believe that Hector and Karlach can battering-ram their way through most of his health bar. It would also, however, be quite reasonable to assume that as soon as he gets a turn, everyone is going to be having a Bad Time. Those are some big claws.

There are also two water myrmidons on the field at 127HP each, which honestly feels kind of unnecessary but I'm not sure how scared of them to be just yet.

The combat log opens with the single line "Ansur was resurrected" which is metal as fuck.

Round 1:

Since our initial strategy is As Much Damage As Possible As Fast As Possible, I have Jaheira cast Haste on Hector. Lacking any other immediately obvious plans for her bonus action, I have her toss a grasping vine behind Ansur's butt as a potential distraction. Astonishingly, despite all of Ansur's advantages, he immediately biffs the saving throw and gets Entangled by it, because Jaheira is a fucking badass.

Wyll gets Armor of Agathys because he is now the squishiest of the party rather than Jaheira, and attempts to clock Ansur with a flourish that completely misses.

The Myrmidons have a semi-AOE "explosive icicle" attack that is not immediately terrifying but definitely seems like it's going to add up RAPIDLY. With this in mind I decide to put Karlach on myrmidon duty so Hector can focus on the dragon.

The grasping vine manages to entangle one of the myrmidons; so far it's done more work than anyone on the field.

That changes on Hector's turn, however, as he (already loaded on cloud giant strength from before the fight) blazes forward, avoids eating shit on the ice surface left by the myrmidons and, due to his hasted quadruple attack and two successful flurry of blows, knocks Ansur immediately down to half health.

And.... now it's Ansur's turn. o.o;

"THE WAITING STORM IS ARISEN!" he bellows and takes on a "Hoarding Energy" status while glowing with lightning. This does finish his turn, though; whatever he's hoarding energy for is coming on the next round, I assume.

Round 2:

"Hide!" Jaheira shouts as her turn starts. "Crawl under any rock you can!" That sounds ominous.

Let's take a look at what Ansur just did.

OK, that clarifies nothing. But Jaheira's exhortation seems to indicate we need to get everyone behind something, and who am I to argue with her? The only obvious cover is the various crystals in the room, so we'll try and end everyone's turn standing behind one.

I try to have Jaheira put Insect Plague behind Ansur where it will hit only him. It does NOT go where I thought it was going to go, and now everyone, particularly Hector, is having a bad time. Jaheira, presumably mumbling apologies, runs behind a nearby crystal.

Wyll finishes off one of the myrmidons and misty steps over to join her.

The other myrmidon chills all entangled on the other side of the fight because Jaheira is, as mentioned, a badass.

Ansur is suddenly resistant to Everything while in this hoarding energy state, so I just have Karlach run and hide behind a crystal also.

Hector's turn gets skipped because I'm an idiot who CONSISTENTLY forgets about concentration mechanics, and Jaheira dropped Haste for Insect Plague and he's now lethargic.

This means Hector is standing out in the open when Ansur does, uh. This:

This is apparently called Stormheart Nova, and was hands-down the most alarming attack I have witnessed in this game so far. It blasted Hector almost apart; he's downed in the center of the field. Bright sides: everyone else was protected by the crystals and it's now Jaheira's turn so she can drop the stupid insect plague. Ansur is also no longer resistant to stuff. Bad news: literally everything else.

Round 3:

Jaheira drops Insect Plague.

There are several Lighting Strike attacks now lined up on the field targeting our folks plus some random areas. They are at the end of the initiative order, so moving and healing Hector is suddenly top priority. Jaheira, who is having actually a pretty great fight aside from the stupid Insect Plague, which was my fault not hers, casts Heal on Hector for a full 70 HP and sidesteps out of the lightning that is targeting her.

Wyll also steps out of the lightning attack and uses the special skill on the rapier he got from Mizora to summon a Helpful Cambion onto the field. He then promptly eats shit to a myrmidon icicle and looks kind of done with the whole situation.

Karlach gets back in the fray and promptly double-crits on Ansur, standing over Hector's prone body in what we can safely say is a moment that is romantic as fuck.

Hector, who is suddenly having a very long day, can't take an action this turn due to having almost been killed, but because he is awesome, is still able to do 99 damage purely with his bonus actions.

Ansur's turn. Much less terrifying this time; he only ("only") does a multiattack on Karlach and then flies across the field to stand menacingly next to Jaheira. All the lightning strikes go off, none of them hit anyone; they do, however, retarget, so we have to keep moving.

Round 3:

Jaheira, sadly, eats shit on some lingering ice while I'm trying to make her retreat and consequently can't do the group heal I was going to have her do. D: She also fell IN a lighting area which is concerning.

The cambion, who has been here almost a full round probably wondering what the fuck kind of trouble Mizora just got him into, crits with one of his Rays of Fire. Ansur is very close to downed.

Wyll, tragically, doesn't quite have the damage to finish him off - but Hector does, landing the finishing blow!

"BALDURAN..." the dragon's dying voice hisses into the storm-tossed air. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE..."

New Roleplay Beacon {RIP Omegle}

With the death of Omegle still so fresh, it looks like I have to put out a flash beacon out for RP requests. Good night, sweet prince.

My name is Pan, I'm 27 years old and have been roleplaying for over 13 years. I am a writer who ranges from writing three paras to novella responses on discord only {I tend to match the length of my partner}. And because I am older, I would prefer if my RP partner was also 23+.

I love plotting and OOC talking with my partners, along with sharing music, videos, pictures as inspiration or other. And depending on what gig I'm working, can be a daily to weekly responder.

Personally, I am not one who writes NSFW, I'm a fade to black kinda pal. Those things can absolutely be implied and led up to, I just have never written it so it's not what I have under my belt.

Now the fandoms and ships or ideas I'm currently looking to write ✍️ and I'm more than willing to double up {the red is who I would prefer you to play, though most I am flexible if I am honest :)

WWDITS {MOVIE AND SHOW}

Vianton {Viago and Anton}

Ladja {Nadja and Laszlo}

✨Nandermo {Nandor and Guillermo}

✨an OC that is a descendant of Laszlo, exploring that familial side of him 🥺 { not romantic unless it's with an OC of yours }

Open to Other Pairings!! {we can talk about it and see if we're on the same page}

OFMD

Gentlebeard/Blackbonnet

✨Luizzy/Sprizzy {Izzy and Lucius}

✨Ouizzy/Frenchizzy

✨S2 Blackbeard Crew {I wanna RP their familial lil' group during those trying times}

Potentially open to other pairings {we can talk about it and see if we're on the same page}

If anyone is interested, DM me or react, I would love to figure things out!!
