I just came out from watching The Last Act at my local cinema. It was something. It was really something.

27 years old today. Only three years of my 20s left. Where did all that time go?

So apparently, if you use a tooth with a filling in it to chew toffee, the toffee can become sicky enough to pull the filling out.

Can I ask why? I didn't jump out of the window or anything. I was still on the ground when all this started.


The elf Aura just took a pot shot at has a reaction ability.

Could I trouble you for a Dexterity saving throw?
@LostDestiny

You're up.
"Surrender yourselves and you will leave here unwounded. If you resist I cannot guarantee-"

This much was all Arkisz had time to say before the cultists charged with various battle cries on their lips. Of the seven cultists in total, two of them went for Arkisz, two of them went for his steel defender, and three of them attacked Flicker. Meanwhile, the elves remained at the back of the room, merely observing the fight while eating some rations they had pulled from their robes.

As the cultists reached their intended targets, two more of their number were brought low. One was slashed across the chest by Arkisz and died quickly. The other wasn't so fortunate however. Arkisz's steel defender struck with its force-empowered rend and severed the cultist's sword arm at the elbow. The cultist clutched at the stump with his one remaining hand and staggered back in shock before tripping on his robe and falling over on the ground writhing in pain.

Despite sustaining two more losses, the cultists continued their attack. They swung their blades as one and each scimitar found its mark, though none of the blades struck as lethally as what the adventurers had managed, only scratching or grazing the flesh or striking less protected portions of armor.

Posted. Now, I forgot that one can assume a persuasion roll takes an action - in which case, I will edit my post so that Arkisz does not have an action readied.
You can speak and ready an action at the same time. Though be aware that if you say something while initiative is in effect, you roll charisma checks with disadvantage if you speak for longer than six seconds. That being said, you've got some attack rolls to make.

Also, how large is this room, in terms of diameter or length I suppose.
The room is twenty five feet long, twenty five feet wide, and fifteen feet high. There's also a porch just before the main room that's five feet long, fifteen feet wide, and ten feet high.
@Bartimaeus

The door is unlocked and unbarred.
The cultist noticed Flicker descending on him just in time to try and avoid the falling genasi. Unfortunately, having been caught off guard, the cultist couldn't dodge fast enough and was subsequently used as both a crash mat and a punching bag by Flicker. By the time the genasi monk was done, they had beaten the cultist into a barely conscious pulp who now lay groaning on the floor. The seven remaining look on at the beating in wide-eyed horror. Seeing one of their number brought low so quickly and so easily has clearly had an effect on them.

"Pull yourselves together!" One of the elves called out, speaking in common this time.

"Remember who you are protecting!" The other elf added. "Remember why you are protecting her!"

The words of the elves restored the courage of the cultists, who then drew scimitars from their robes just as the first one had. They didn't attack immediately though. While they were no longer frightened, they were still cautious and opted to wait for an opening rather than recklessly charge a dangerous opponent.

@XxFellsingxX
All seems well on my end. Also, Flicker is now inspired.

@Bartimaeus
You're up.
Working on the post. Just need to clarify one last thing: since they're up 10 feet above the ground, trying to jump down would cause them to take fall damage, right?
That's right.

If so, can Flicker jump down and attack (using Produce Flame) even if they take damage?
You could still attack after jumping down. And since there's a cultist directly below the window and I'm using Tasha's rules for landing on creatures, Flicker could get in some extra damage by goomba stomping the cultist.

(Sorry, still newish to 5e, not fully comfortable with combat rules ^^;)
No worries. We've all been there at some point.
Not sure if we can do that before initiative or not, that would be up to @rush99999


Yeah that's cool with me.
