The silverback swings its fists at Miasma, the second hit turning the boar to jelly that spatters the area as it bellows in triumph.

Claw damage 1: 1D8+2 = [4]+2 = 6

Claw damage 2: 1D8+2 = [7]+2 = 9 ((just in case))

sting attack: 1D20+4 = [19]+4 = 23

sting piercing damage: 1D10+2 = [5]+2 = 7

((I appreciate the breakdown! Second claw misses, save is failed!))
Con save: 1D20+3 = [4]+3 = 7


The silverback bellows angrily as Gomz clamps and stings!

Sluj... Uselessly sits on the ledge. Unable to do much of anything, it just sits still and hopes one of the smaller creatures will eventually get chased over to its platform once the big one is defeated.
My game:
Hunters of Letrua; Character list
Also Player / Monster stats, skill lists.

My characters:
Tugs Tails, the goblin that was sort of a trapper and wears a bear's tail at his neck, for some reason - Lair of the Mountain King (Run by Thinks)
Alex Sparo, A city boy, poor of sight, who has learned to manipulate people and make the most of what he, and others, have - Trinity Isles (Run by Mort)
Mehriv Turajin, a Noble Dragonborn Sorcerer sent from his clan because he wasn't dragony enough. - The Wandering Archipelago (Run by Thinks)

Slizard hits, but the big creature is still up.

The small apes fling... something... at Gomz and Slizard. It's smelly.

((DC 10 Dex Save to avoid the flung poo or next attack is at disadvantage.))

((Miasma is then up!))

Gomz irritably twitches to the side to avoid the smelly missles, all while still grappling the big silver back.

Dex: 1D20+1 = [11]+1 = 12

Miasma smacks the silverback. ((You also have another d4 psychic.))

It lashes out at the chitinous creature that is grappling it!

_: 1D20+6 = [19]+6 = 25
3D6+4 = [2, 2, 3]+4 = 11
1D20+6 = [17]+6 = 23
3D6+4 = [2, 5, 1]+4 = 12

Sluj probably isn't going to be able to cross the platforms in its current form, so I guess it'll just have to slime its way off the platform and hope it can go help with the silverback.

Gomz winces and sputters after the beating he just took. He maintains his grip on the silverback, flails at him with his free claw, and then jabs with his stinger again.
Claw 1: grappling Silverback.

claw attack: 1D20+4 = [3]+4 = 7 :Miss

sting attack: 1D20+4 = [15]+4 = 19

sting piercing damage: 1D10+2 = [6]+2 = 8

poison damage (1/2 with con save): 4D10 = [8, 6, 10, 4] = 28

Total damage: 8+28= 36 (22 with con save).

Gomz does indeed kill the silverback, just like he did in the post I wrote at some point, but apparently never posted. :roll:

Gomz hisses in satisfaction and rips off a chunk of silverback flesh to eat. <<Someone else can have his bones, but I'm hungry!>>

((I think with the silverback down, the other monkeys will be trivial for you to dispatch, they've run out of things to throw, so would be trying to play keep away, but I'm okay with handwaving all of that and letting you all get your rest here?))

Gomz eats his fill and then crawls into the corner to rest.

((I've kind let this game languish... didn't realize there's not been activity since the end of September. I've ported my other game on this forum over to DnD Beyond, if there is interest, I could port this over there, but if you're all feeling like this little experiment has run its course, I can narrate a bit of an ending to it and we can call it complete? Let me know. My time on this forum has dwindled to maybe once a week or so, I mostly came here for the games, and DDB is much more active on that front, so I'm over there daily.))

I'll defer to the group. RL is getting busy, so I may be a little less present for a while.
