[P] That Boomerang wouldn’t hit the broad side of a barn, reptile brain!

Mrtve looked quickly back to shore, and then down at the creature. She was in its environment - its habitat. She wouldn’t be able to flee fast enough before the Lizalfos was on top of her. She also couldn’t necessarily out run something wielding a ranged weapon such as a boomerang. It was a shitty situation to be, treading water in combat, but fortunately her spell-casting may be able to potentially save her in this situation. She decided she’s going to stand her ground.

Treading water she waited for her foe to surface and launch its attack with its boomerang. On queue, the Lizalfos lurched up to commence the attack. Mrtve’s eyes shimmered the slightest tinge of octarine as she spoke, her stare glaring directly at the Lizalfos. “That boomerang wouldn’t hit the broad side of a barn, reptile brain!” she bellowed as she cast Vicious Mockery on the foe as it in turn flung its boomerang at her!

With the string of insults from Mrtve jinxing it, the Lizalfos whiffs its attack upon her and it goes wide. Its ego and willpower psychically undone, it catches the returning boomerang and lowers its weapons, surrendering as it clutches at its skull in confusion.

Mrtve smirked in triumph as the Lizalfos reels in anguish and defeat and takes its boomerang and shield from its inventory, equipping them. She quickly scans her surroundings, blowing a mocking kiss at her defeated foe in the process.

[GM] Turning to face the onslaught instead of attempting to flee, Mrtve and Lizalfos initiate combat with one another directly!

[GM] Lizalfos rolls 2+5 = 7 for Quickness.

[P] Mrtve rolls natural 20+1 = 21 for Quickness. Mrtve is faster to the draw and goes first!

[P] Mrtve casts Vicious Mockery! Mrtve rolls 6+3 = 9 on Sociability. Lizalfos rolls 3+2 = 5 on Will. Lizalfos fails the contest and Mrtve reduces the Lizalfos’s Will by 4, and gives Lizalfos disadvantage on its attacks!

[GM] Lizalfos hurls the boomerang using precision, with disadvantage. Rolls 18+1 = 19 and 4+1 = 5 to hit, taking the 5. Mrtve rolls to dodge. Rolls 15+1 = 16 to dodge. Mrtve successfully dodges the attack.

[GM] Lizalfos has its will reduced to 0 and surrenders!

[GM] Mrtve defeats the Lizalfos and gains 200XP!

[P] Mrtve had 50 XP. +60 = Level 2. Remainder 140 = 140/220. Mrtve reaches level 2! +1 Fertility. +1 Health. +1 Mana. +1 Quickness. Gains ability Bard:

“Bard: Mrtve can choose to use Sociability trait in place of her Knowledge trait when casting spells.”

[P] Mrtve disarms the Lizalfos and takes its boomerang and shield. Boomerang is a ranged weapon that deals 1d4 on a hit, and Shield gives armour of 2.

[P] Mrtve scans her surroundings to check for further threats. Rolls 17+2 = 19 for Caution.
