@Guardian Angel Haruki Would my full speed get me to Bernie skirting around the greasy stuff? If not I would like to take a running start and mayhap jump over the stinky, smelly stuff, get to Bernie and attack him only to knock him out. No lethal damage.
Your full movement will get you to where Bobbin and Mirdas are in relation to Bernie. He'll still be 15 feet away from you. For doing a running long jump that should get you to him, so go ahead and make an Athletics check.
@ihinka Hmmm...If Safira is just going to cut the ropes open with her scimitar, then I would consider that a bonus action.
EVERYONE: @JBRam2002 has pointed out that the greased area is difficult terrain and the adjustments to my GM post have been made. Thank you @JBRam2002!
Warren huffed and puffed as he kept on running, trying to keep up with the woman who told him to follow her. The panther ran by his side. Soon enough he reached the point where the woman was and gasped when he saw that Bernie was trying to use Callie as a way to get out alive. Before Safira could even get her threat out, Warren's eyes widened when a bear just barreled out from the forest, and attacked. Screams were heard and Warren couldn't help but shout in concern and fear for the girl, "CALLIE!!!"
The bandit snarled at Jacoby as the blindfolded man tried to leave, "Don't you ignore me!" and he took a slash at him. The bandit chased after Jacoby, and tried to attack him again, only for the scimitar to swing wide above the human male's head. The bandit looked at the scene with his Captain nearby.
The bandit looked back and forth between the elf and the dwarf that seemed to surround him. He saw that the dwarf had an arrow ready for him, and at first he seemed to reconsider his options. However, he took a glance at his friend who was now not even visible amongst the cocoon of vines and a fire seemed to appear in his eyes. He dropped his crossbow, the weapon clattered as it hit the ground, and he snarled at the dwarf, "Like I'd let you kill me and my brothers...!" He drew his scimitar as he whispered to himself, as though mourning a death, "For Jared..." He then let out a war cry as he started to charge at the dwarf. However, he stopped and shouted in pain when he felt a stabbing pain in his cheek. Buzzing can be heard all around him as wasps swarmed around him and stung at him. He screamed and ran south, back to where the adventurers met each other on the road.
-Warren moves 30 feet, and dashes 30 feet. -The bandit who attacked Jacoby earlier gets an attack of opportunity as Jacoby leaves melee. He rolled a 14 to hit, and it hits. He deals 4 slashing damage to Jacoby. He moves 30 feet and tries to attack Jacoby again for his action, and rolls a 7 to hit. That misses. -That entangled bandit is not getting out anytime soon... -The bandit that is facing Signod and Shaedra rolled an 11 against Signod's Intimidation. He tries to attack, but the Infestion acts. He rolled a 10 on his Constitution save. That is a failure. He takes 1 point of poison damage and moves South.
Jamil
Jamil kept his eye on the human bandit and stayed with him. Although he wanted to stay close to Shaedra, he wasn't going to disobey her request. When he got to the clearing with the two humans, his eyes caught the sight in front of him and his teeth became bared. His fur stood on end and he snarled and yowled, his demeanor becoming much more hostile.
He moves and uses his action to dash to stay close to Warren
Bandit Captains

Everything happened so quickly...
Usually holding a hostage would work, but it wasn't.
A bear suddenly came through the forest and attacked. Barney screamed in fear as he used his scimitar to deflect the bear's paws and teeth. At the same time, Callie also screamed in fear. After Safira's and Jacoby's voices entered the chaos, and Mirdas acted, Bobbin and Mirdas would notice a brief flash of blue light emanate from the top of Callie's right hand for but a brief moment. Shortly after, Bobbin, Jacoby, Mirdas, Safira, Jamil, and the bandits would see an aura of shifting and swirling colors appearing around Callie. The iridescent aura shifted rapidly between colors until it finally settled onto a dark brown, much like the color of coffee.
The aura leaves Callie and floats above the crowd, centering on Callie, and it seems to shift from just energy, to a gaseous form, until it finally condenses into a thick liquid. Bobbin, thanks to his keen sense of smell as a bear, would be able to pick up on that awful stench that he smelled when he visited that gnome artificer that one time.
Bernie couldn't help but utter, "What the...?!" before the liquid falls all at once on the group, covering those who entered the fray in the dark brown, slippery ichor. Callie let out a scream again when she felt this cold thick liquid on her. She ended up falling to the ground and after that, she seemed to try and curl up and cover her head.
Bernie stood up and looked at the situation around him. He growled "This isn't worth it...! Fall back brothers! Fall back!" He lightly kicked Mirdas's weapon in order to prevent him from attacking, and started getting out of there. He managed to make it to normal ground but he couldn't move very far until he was sure the grease under his shoes were cleaned.
Bernie shouted as he slipped and fell to the ground. Barney felt his feet start to try and give out from under him, but he waved his arms and managed to keep his balance. When he felt as though he found his footing, he looked at Bernie, as though he wanted to follow orders and run, but the golden glow shined around his body again. He looked back to the bear and armored man, and he shouted as he stabbed into the bear. However, after finding purchase with the bear, he ended up falling on his face into the greased ground.
Brett also looked like he wanted to run, but after a golden glow shimmered around his body, he called to Barney "I'll help ya Barn!" and he ran into the greased area, only to shout and fall onto his face. After picking himself back up again, he attacked the bear and slashed at it. Afterwards, he felt his foot give out from under him again and he shouted as he fell on top of Barney.
-Somehow...the spell Grease was cast (...by Callie?), and it is a ten foot square centered on Callie. Bernie, Barney, Callie, Bobbin, and Mirdas all needed to make a Dexterity Saving Throw. Failure means they fall prone. Barney is the only one who succeeded. -Bernie uses half of his movement to stand up, and uses his action to disengage from the fallen Mirdas. He then uses the rest of his movement to get out of the greased area and attempt to make a run for it again. However the greased area is difficult terrain, so he only moves 5 feet. It's enough to get him out of the greased area. -Barney finds that he can't leave, so he attacks Bobbin. Has advantage because Bobbin is prone. He rolled a 22. Hits. Bobbin takes 7 damage. He ends his turn in the greased area, and has to make a Dex Save again. He rolled an 8. He falls prone. -Brett also finds that he can't run either. So he takes a cue from Barney and goes to attack Bobbin. He enters the Greased area and has to make a DEX Save. He rolled an 8. He falls and uses 15 feet of movement to stand up before going to attack Bobbin, He rolls a 14. Hits. That's another 7 damage. He ends his turn in the greased area and has to make a Dexterity Saving Throw. He rolls a 4. He falls prone too. -Callie is prone, and she is not moving or doing anything.
-Mirdas and Bobbin (15 feet from Bernie. You're practically right next to Barney, Brett, and Callie) -Jacoby (20 ft away) (Bandit who escaped Entangle) -Safira, Warren, and Jamil (30 ft away. 10 feet was spent to get around difficult terrain) -Shaedra and Signod (70 ft away) (Entangled bandits) -Boram (90 ft away)
