Posey is staring down the hydra with her body half-eaten and her puppies flanking to attack on her turn.
>>172998 →Neela is silent for a moment
"... No." She relaxes her body a little
"So... What were your plans for a place to stay?"
>>172999 →shrugsThe hydra bites at each attacker with its remaining heads.
I'm not sure if frightful presence should still be effective, or if it should even have affected the hydra in the first place
Posey
[1d20+6 = (14+6) = 20]Pup 1
[1d20+6 = (3+6) = 9]Pup 2
[1d20+6 = (3+6) = 9] >>173006It hits, due to Posey being underwater.
Here's to a good damage roll. I need the Masochism bonus to make another head this round.
Going to roll Posey's turn preemptively.
She lets her Puppies attack first
[1d20+4 = (19+4) = 23]
[1d20+4 = (8+4) = 12]
[1d20+4 = (2+4) = 6]
[1d20+4 = (12+4) = 16]
Posey follows up with a Sunder. Depending on the results of the opposed grapple, she may or may not take an attack of opportunity.
[1d20+10 = (13+10) = 23]
"[Incoherent bubbling]!" (Die!)
>>173011Posey provokes opportunity attack as she sunders.
>>173012[1d8+10 = (1+10) = 11] sunder damage
This would be Posey's whole turn.
Hydra attacks now.
>>173016Fuck yes. Only two heads left.
Posey's Crawlers stick around for two more rounds.
>>173006"I've got Bits, so maybe we can pay rent for an apartment like this one. A different one though, in a different place where we're less likely to be harassed by police officers hitting our apartment."
>>173017>>173018The head attacking Pup 2 moves around to attack Posey now
Posey:
[1d20+6 = (17+6) = 23]Pup 1
[1d20+6 = (16+6) = 22]>>173019She nods, pleased with this
"Yes. At worst we could find someone to stay with. Or a hotel."
>>173013I'm spirit of good sport I gotta say, iirc, don't Hydras AoO with all of their heads at once?
>>173022I don't think so. One AoO should be one attack. They have the ability to do it several times in the same round, should there be multiple occasions
Posey's puppies continue their flanking routine, extending their innards to slurp up the blood as Posey removed the heads.
[1d20+4 = (12+4) = 16]
[1d20+4 = (7+4) = 11]
[1d20+4 = (14+4) = 18]
[1d20+4 = (16+4) = 20]
>>173024Three hits
[6d6 = 20]Three grapples
[1d20+9 = (16+9) = 25][1d20+9 = (3+9) = 12][1d20+9 = (4+9) = 13]I can't believe I've been forgetting flanking bonuses.
>>173025Posey makes her own Strike, going for a head

FUCKMy spell is going to expire next round. For fuck's sake. Fuck.
>>173026>>173027>>173025Or maybe it doesn't bite her...
>>173027Aha! He's grappled, which means he does not AoO
Roll Will vs Vile touch
>>173020"I've made do with worse, myself, but I've got more than just myself to worry about now, right? Hotels would probably get expensive, paying per night. Anyways, you're still my guide to the city. Know of a good neighborhood to look for an apartment in?"
>>173032It attempts to free itself from the grapple
[1d20+16 = (13+16) = 29]And then attacks
Pup 1
[1d20+6 = (7+6) = 13]Pup 2
[1d20+6 = (10+6) = 16]>>173033"They are nicer in the west and by the river. Cheapest in the east and by the water."
Okay, I've taken three of its heads, and Posey's Puppies have done decent damage to it every round. It should be at very low health, but it'll heal.
If I take another head this round, it'll have one head left after Posey's puppies go...
I need to do as much damage as possible to it this round.
>>173034It can attack and escape a grapple in the same turn?
Whatever. Posey's puppies are massive HP sponges.
Puppies attack again on Posey's turn, their last attack for this summon
[1d20+4 = (12+4) = 16][1d20+4 = (12+4) = 16][1d20+4 = (7+4) = 11][1d20+4 = (3+4) = 7] >>173034"I think we might have enough for a nicer apartment. And the police are less likely to be looking for, well, creatures like us in the nicer parts of town, right?"
>>173034Oh wait, the puppy gets an opposed grapple.
It can win with only a nat 20
[1d20 = 5] >>173036>>173037Opposed:
[1d20+16 = (19+16) = 35][1d20+16 = (1+16) = 17]>>173038"They aren't..." She says
"... That's a lot of money"
>>173040It appears to be grappled
[1d20+2 = (9+2) = 11] >>173040>Nat 1Orcus has tipped the scales in my favor
DC 12 Will saves vs Vile Touch
Posey takes advantage of this to sunder one of its two remaining heads.
[1d20+9 = (1+9) = 10] >>173041If that's a will save, that means he's Nauseated, but only for one round as Posey's puppies are about to disappear.
>>173040"Well, even if it turns out that somehow, this isn't enough Bits? At the very least we know we tried, and we'll know for the future how many we'll need."
>>173047"No, that's enough bits for rent... Just, it leaves fewer bits for other things." After a pause "I would just get an apartment around here... but I've never had that many bits."
>>173045Well, I can't outrun it at swimming speed, and with no acid damage left, I can't reliably cut off heads...
Posey could try to summon her puppies again... But idk about that.
With no other options left, Posey's best bet is to try to deal as much damage as possible in this single round, before its fast healing kicks in and the battle becomes unwinnable. It I get it down to low enough health, it might flee, but idk. If my math is right, it should be around 14 HP...
Posey makes a charnel touch against the neaseated Hydra. She uses versatile spellcaster to cast Inflict Moderate wounds.
[1d20+7 = (9+7) = 16]>inb4 missShe can always hold the charge...
>>173049Wait, my math might be wrong...
>one spell slots left
If this doesn't work, it's going to be a Chill Touch battle of attrition.
>>173048"It sounds like you would value getting some nicer furniture over getting a nicer apartment."
>>173053Or it could try sword + natural weapons, and just try to out-damage him...
