[OOC] Lost Mine of Phandelver 8 player

[Luccan]

Herbalism Kit proficiency plus Wisdom:
[roll0]

What do I find, DM?

You quickly ascertain they're healing potions. You don't recover any HP but simply splashing it on yourself or tasting it you see several small cut close and a bruise heal up

If i can use them as makeshift throwing daggers, i'll take them.

Not proficient in History, so just a straight Intelligence check [roll0]

You're not sure where they're from, though obviously they belong to someone who was having good delivered along the trail

[Matt4]

I'll give it a try for the History check as well: (1d20+2)[9]

[Infernally Clay]

Just so I know how much we have on hand, how much silver and copper was in the chest?

[Luccan]

Just so I know how much we have on hand, how much silver and copper was in the chest?

600 copper
110 Silver

[Infernally Clay]

600 copper
110 Silver

So that's 13 silver and 75 copper for each of us when we get to Phandalin.

[Luccan]

Does anyone have a torch out? Most of you don't have Darkvision and the room you're entering doesn't have a light source

[Matt4]

Della will light her torch again if needed

[Infernally Clay]

I'll have you know Sigrún eats a lot of carrots!

[NontheistCleric]

Unless it's been over an hour already, Yorrel should still have Light active on her ring.

Ah, I'd forgotten, thank you. I'll get us moving tomorrow

What to roll for this potion?

[Luccan]

What to roll for this potion?

It'll be 2d4+2

[Phyzor]

Need blabla text to roll
potion - (2d20+2)[21]

Omg rolled d20s instead of d4s
Saw 21 and thought thats not right

[Phyzor]

New chance new rolls
(2d4+2)[8]

[Infernally Clay]

How close are we to the goblins? Would Sigrún be able to get within 30ft of the one with the staff without being seen? I'd like to throw a javelin at them before they see us coming.

They're just outside the bright light from Yorrel's ring, so about 20ft. In all likelihood they'll notice you momentarily, they're just rather caught up in their argument

Then I won't give them a chance to. >:D

[Infernally Clay]

Oh wow it was a critical hit. I'll roll the extra damage here.

(1d6)[3]

[JNAProductions]

Should we roll Init?

[Phyzor]

Yes we are

reroll for the damage (1d6+5)[11] + (1d6)[5]

[Infernally Clay]

I legitimately don't know how surprise rounds work or if we get one because of what I did, but I'm sure Luccan has an idea. :P

[Phyzor]

Lol exactly what I was thinking Infernally Clay, just made my move and let the DM decide how it unfolds:)

[Luccan]

I legitimately don't know how surprise rounds work or if we get one because of what I did, but I'm sure Luccan has an idea. :P

Surprise in 5e isn't too confusing, but is a pain because anyone who has played a previous editions is familiar with Surprise Rounds, which 5e does not have. In 5e, Surprise is basically a condition that a creature who is not aware of a threat before Initiative is rolled takes on and lasts until the end of their first turn. They cannot move or take any actions on their first turn and until their first turn passes they also can't use any reactions. So, yeah, you did surprise these guys and basically means I'll roll everyone's Initiative, you all can post a turn of actions, and then we'll go as normal. Just be aware if your initiative falls after the goblins they'll be able to take Opportunity Attacks like normal

Appreciate everyone's patience. I haven't heard from Vorpal Glaive in a little bit and it looks like they haven't been on in almost two weeks, so for now Myrus will be my responsibility mechanically. If we don't hear from Vorpal by the time you decide you're done with the cave, we'll figure out what to do from there.

Edit: Smelkie might not get Sneak Attack. The advantage you've gained is Surprise, no one was actually hiding at the time, at least that I could tell. If someone gets into melee with your target before your turn you might get it though

No worries, I am happy to let you rule the plot.
As for Vorpal, he dropped out in another game I am in on discord.

Ok. We can proceed on that assumption, then.

Thanks, I appreciate everyone doing their bit to make this run smoothly and at a good pace

[Luccan]

I'm having no luck pulling up Myrus's sheet, so I'll make a War Cleric statblock and and run him that way

[Phyzor]

Rolling for investigation in case its needed (1d20+3)[20]
