If I pass the horror check I reserve the right to panic and flee anyway.

[Ken of Ghastria]

Horror save:
[dice]0[/dice] + 4 + the 1d4 from Bless [dice]1[/dice]

Ugh. That's a total of 13. Vorj fails the Horror save.

Ken: I'll go with a slightly modified "short madness" table. Are you familiar with the madness rules of D&D next? I'll use the track of the Out of the Abyss BTW (i.e. if you fail another horror save soon, it will be longer).
It'll be the table on page 259 without the effects of 41-80. I.e. it's 1d6.

Vorj's horror save:
[dice]0[/dice] "The character becomes frightened and must use his or her action and movement each round to flee from the source of the fear."

duration (1d10 mins seems too much in this case, we will go with 1d6+4 rounds):
[dice]1[/dice] rounds + 4 rounds

Sorry buddy. That's 1 minute that Vorj will spend running and screaming (you have the frightened condition). Since this is worse than a fear effect... you won't stop running once you can't see the spirit, I'll allow a save to stop running at each floor, if the ghost isn't hunting you through the corridors.

HR: [dice]0[/dice]

That's not good

[alhoon]

You forgot the bonuses from bless and the bonus for proficiency + strength. The 1 is a miss. the 8 is probably a hit with all the extras. Roll the 1d4 for bless and add 5. I.e. it's 13+1d4. That's a hit.
Roll 1d6+3 damage.

Spirit attack on Vorj
[dice]0[/dice]

The dice, REALLY, REALLY hate you Ken.

energy drain
[dice]1[/dice]


That's... 12 damage. Necrotic. Constitution save please Ken, DC 11.
DO NOT forget the bless spell.
If you have inspiration or anything use it if you fail. It's energy drain; if you fail this save Vorj's not unconscious, he's as dead as a rock.

Damn, I knew it was too hard an adventure. I promise, this is the monster is in that room. I didn't add it.
