You're exploring the ruined dwarven city of Dwimmerdwell, It fell three hundred years ago, the defenders dying to the last. Yet supposedly, the attackers died. Everyone who has come to explore or loot it has failed to report back. Rumors say that a last dwarven guardian still lives... yet even dwarves don't live that long, do they?

You proceed down the streets in a cluster... they are broad, and the buildings around you are ruined, with gaping holes marking doors, holes, or battle damage. Most don't even have roofs any more. The cavern ceiling arches high above, up to 200' in places.

You hear a rapid squeaking noise, and see an elderly dwarven woman in armor appear, moving rather quickly (Haste) - or rather, you see four of her, wreathed in flames, in a wheelchair, far ahead of you. She touches her armor, and suddenly abandons the wheelchair for flight as the armor glows.

Lanius fires a volley of arrows, one of which pops a mirror image, and two more which hit (25 damage). Merry casts a defensive spell. Jessica moves up and dodges.

Jessica moves to V14 and uses her action to dodge.

Lanius fires two arrows, one of which finds a gap and lodges deep in the dwarf's armor (crit! 32, + 11, + 6 sneak = 49). Merry moves closer, but is unable to land a spell. Hyra's Celestial lands two arrows (12 & 17) as the group moves closer.

A mechanical bird clinging to the dwarf's back is briefly visible as it activates a ring.

Merry continues walking forwards but hasn't got a good line of sight to the dwarf. If he can, before Jessica rounds the corner, Merry will try to damage the building and dwarf with one of his loud shattering spells.

There's a wall between the spell and the dwarf, but Merry figures that knocking down an adjacent wall on top of her may still do some damage even if she's not exactly in its most effective blast zone.

Spoiler: OOC - Shatter

Merry moves to Y21. He uses Shatter in an aerial-explosion fashion centered on S9, at about the same altitude as the dwarf was when she went out of view. [roll0] thunder damage, Con DC 20 for half.

Lanius runs forward, firing two arrows while invisible (hit for 32). Ferrin casts a warding spell, absorbing some of the thunder damage (saved, Absorb Elements; reduce to 6). Jessica moves close, waiting for her to fall. Hyra's spell is resisted (saved), and the Celestial's arrows go wide.

Jessica summons a beam of holy light to surround the Artificer.

Spoiler

Show

Cast Moonbeam. [roll0] radiant damage, or half as much on a successful constitution saving throw (DC 16): [roll1] plus mods.

Lanius fires two shots, both hitting for 19 & 14. The first arrow drops her to 0, and she uses her reaction to un-attune to an item, so she goes to hp instead. Then the second arrow hits and kills her.
Had that not worked...
Merry's Disintegrate hits for 77 damage.
Jessica's Moonbeam burns for 3 damage.
Hyra's Celestial hits once for 18 damage, and her Command takes effect.

It took two days of pursuit into the trackless Stone Wastes, but you think you've come close to bringing Goethe to bay. An agent of some fiendish power, he's responsible for several mass killings and assassinations, but always seems to get away.

The wastes are a harsh and barren place, and this area in particular is made up of great stone pillars that reach up out of the ground like a hundred blunt-tipped fingers. Step off a pillar, and you fall sixty feet to the stone below.

probably inspired by the Avatar vs Fire Lord Ozai fight area

Suddenly, he's there, about 130' in front of you. Maybe he was invisible, or perhaps you've come close enough that his trickery is no longer enough. He holds a wand in one hand and a staff in another. Seven glowing red lights circle his head like a crown of malignant stars, shining on the bat-like wings folded at his back.

Lanius fires three arrows. Despite his invisibility, the foe tries to move out of their way (no advantage; Foresight), but two still hit (15, 16, 7 = 39). The warlock points his staff at the group and speaks a ----. You can't understand it, but you soon have other concerns. Everything goes dark, but it's not a quiet dark, or a lonely dark. Things brush up against you.... things that shouldn't be.
