@TheDredPriateRoberts
we need to focus all attacks on one at a time if at all possible

(As long as all 3 hags are in a vicinity of each other they get special abilities. Ur right, we gotta focus DPS one down. Or this is gonna def get ugly AF.)

Eikka screeches something in orcish about dismembering Offallia, then fires a guiding bolt at her before backing away slightly to give others space to move forward and attack.

Grahf focuses his energy and lashes out against Offallia again and manages to secure a hit. While the blade is lodged into her flesh, he imbues it with divine energy, causing her to retch in pain.

[Melee Weapon Attack: d20 (19) + 6 = 25, Hit!]
[Longsword Damage: d10 (3) + 4 + 3d8 (7, 3, 2) = 7/2 = 3 slashing damage, 12 radiant damage]

While Offalia is distracted, Eikka adds onto Grahf's radiant strike with one of her own. The bolt looks like it was about to strike her, but at the last minute, Offalia dismisses it with the wave of a hand.

Ismark fires a bolt at Offalia. While it hits, it does not do much damage.

Morgantha snarls something in an unknown language at the dretch. She then moves where she can see Grahf and flings her hands outward. Grahf suddenly finds himself shrinking... shrinking... shrinking. And with a sudden desire to eat flies.

[Grahf Wisdom Save: d20 (4) + 2 = 6, Failed!]

The Dretch races up the stairs and then lunges at Eikka with claw and tooth, but cannot penetrate her armor.

Bella steps up and tries to grab hold of Grahfrog, but he slips out of her grasp.

[Dexterity (Acrobatics) Check: d20 (11) + 1 = 12]

Grumbling about stupid adventurers, Offallia hops off of the stairs and slinks behind her sisters.

With something in range to hit, Roberts slashes at it with sword and sword. He secures a powerful slash with his longsword, but misses with his short sword.

[Melee Weapon Attack: d20 (9) + 5 = 14, Hit!]
[Longsword Damage: d10 (8) + 3 = 11 slashing damage]
[Melee Weapon Attack: d20 (5) + 5 = 10, Miss!]

Luraxt unleashes her burning hands, angling it as to not harm her allies. Though the Dretch manages to dodge most of the blast, it is still significantly scorched.

Snerp: Zzzz....

RETCON:

[Grahf Wisdom Save (Inspiration): d20 (16) + 2 = 18, Saved!]

Grahf resists being turned into a frog and delivers a rude gesture to Morgantha.

Bella turns her black eyes onto Grahf. Enough toading around, eh? 

[Grahf Wisdom Save: d20 (8) + 2 = 10, Failed!]

Grahf grumbles to the ground, asleep.

Eikka moves forward and gives Snerp a good smack across his face. 

Upstairs! she shrieks before moving back upstairs and in as much cover from the hags as possible.

Snerp wakes up Grahf and moves upstairs as well.

(If we take them on the stairs it'll be 1-2 at a time. Good spot to make a stand. Roberts and Lux should be able to take out Dretch. 

I'll have Snerp cast feather fall with his 1x a day cast on Ireena, Ismarck, and the kids next turn and have them jump, telling Ismarck to shoot at the raven outside if he sees it. 

 I'll save a lvl 1 slot to cast feather fall again on everyone else as a "oh shit" emergency evacuate option. But we're not out of the fight just yet imho.)

(we have to press the attack, we can't give them a chance to heal or regroup, Ireena isn't going to attack it seems, so let her take the kids, but waiting until it needs or has to be done, perhaps she has rope or gear that she can use to climb down with the children, or lower them down.)

(my concern is if we back off, they can spell up, heal up and perhaps raise more monsters that we would have to fight, we need to stop them from casting if possible, wish I had shield bash or something like that, anything we can do to stop their magic is key imo)

Grahf snores in dragonborn.

Eikka maneuvers around the Dretch to get to the stairs, it snaps at her with its hideous jaws, but she jumps out of the way just in time. She makes it to the bottom of the stairs and nudges Snerp awake.

Ismark turns and moves into Eikka's spot and slashes at the Dretch, slicing its heat from its neck. The remains of the creature melt back into the black-green goo from the barrel.

Morgantha grins at Snerp and Eikka. You are a meddlesome bunch, aren't ye? Don't even have the common decency to be young and succulent. Maybe your skins will make nice handbags!

She thrusts out both of her hands. Eikka feels a magical force wash over her, but it passes. Snerp, however, finds himself rooted in his spot.

[Eikka Wisdom Save: d20 (17) + 4 = 21, Saved!]
[Snerp Wisdom Save (advantage): d20 (7, 8) + 1 = 9, Failed!]

Bella Fixes her void eyes, but Eikka manages to resist the sleep effect.

[Eikka Wisdom Save: d20 (14) + 4 = 18, Saved!]

Behind them Offallia spits: Enough dicking around, sisters!

From her crooked fingers spring out three bolts of magical force that strike Eikka in the chest.

[Eikka takes 6 force damage]


(Over to Roberts and Luraxt)

(hack and slash, kinda my thing, action surge for 2nd attack, while this isn't panic mode the urgency can't be under estimated)
(if I have to use a turn to move, but could instead use m.m. again I would use m.m. so whatever action that leads to quickest attack is the root I wish to take, with preference being melee)

(Unfortunately, the stairs are a bit crowded. There's not enough room to get down there with a single move. You could move and dash, that'll get you down there, then action surge. Even then, you'll have to specify a target)
