You fight and Loot [IC]

[agignac]

As Trazz sniffs at the jars, Pew heads over to the blue door. "Don't want any of these guys popping up behind us!" Uncle Snoot had always warning them to clear an area before going up or down the stairs. They open the door cautiously.

[Jyps]

The large blue door leads to a dining room.

It has three long tables, that you imagine could seat up to sixty people combined.
Beyond the tables, there is a small set of steps leading to a more reserved area with a smaller table that would perhaps be fitting to someone of higher stature presiding over the dinner.

Overall, the room is empty and poorly kept. The tables are dusty, the plates are chipped and there is food spill here and there.

On the wall, looking over the tables, there is an enormous painting of a stern looking elvish man. He wears a black robe, has long silver hair and black eyes that pierce you with violent hatred.

Exits:
To the left, there is a brown door.
To the right, there is a grey door.
Behind the president’s table, there is a fancy looking door.

"Sure, once Gobbert says you can." Pew looks around the fancy chair, wondering if there were a few gold pieces under a cushion. Who knows what fancy elves had in their pockets at dinner time.

Investigating the portrait of Lord Grimace, the wizard Gobbert finds nothing unusual.

Well.. Nothing palpable in the material realm.

As Lilith approaches with her torch, setting ablaze the judgmental painting – and does it catch fire, indeed -, both Gobbert and Lilith feel something invasive inside their heads.

It starts as a quiet whisper in the back of your brain.

But it develops quickly into a horrid and painful screech!

Gobbert and Lilith need to roll Charisma saving throws.

…Wait… What nonsense is this? …Making moonshine… with friends… Aaarrghh! I Hate Moonshine!!”

“Ah, yes.. A wizard, of sorts.. Much better intellect... Still a long way to go in wizardry, but for now you shall suffice… Become my vessel, and once again I will strike fear in the hearts of my enemies!”

"Put that knife down before you hurt yourself," Trazz says to Gobbert, intercepting him.

Can Trazz attempt to disarm Gobbert?

According to the Dungeon Master's Guide:

"A creature can use a weapon attack to knock a weapon or another item from a target’s grasp. The attacker makes an attack roll contested by the target’s Strength (Athletics) check or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If the attacker wins the contest, the attack causes no damage or other ill effect, but the defender drops the item."

So if that's allowed... Attack roll to disarm! (1d20+5)[19]

Gobbert's Acrobatics check (it's higher than their Athletics): (1d20+3)[15]

[agignac]

Pew, busy rummaging for loose coins and finding none, is completely unaware of what's happening over by the portrait.

The Commodores ears itch and twitch, hearing another voice come from Gabbert he turns and raises his bow.

"lookout! Gobberts possessed!

"What?!" Pew tries to stand too quickly and bonks their head. They see Harrington about to shoot at Gobbert and yells, "Don't shoot! We just need to slap some sense into him!"

(Will try to interfere with the arrow, though technically he's after me in init)

After having the dagger knocked out of his hands by Trazz, Gobbert shouts in a jagged ghost voice:

“Rats! I needed that for murdering!”

His eyes are pure evil! Even evil-er than before.
“I might have lost my deadly weapon, but I’m not short of means to hurt you. Watch!”

He lunges at Trazz, attacking her with bare hands scratching and clawing.
