I feel bad for those 37 Greenlanders when they're incorporated and see the cost of Healthcare in America. It's crippling honestly.

good progress lately. mainly using kettlebells now for a change. trying to grip them on the body with both hands instead of using the handle really adds difficulty

Yes, the condition of flanking, per my interpretation, is a distraction on the creature from two or more hostile creatures roughly opposing the target. However, I allow advantage on grappled targets, and the grappled targets get disadvantage but flanking will cancel that out.

Also yes, the bulette did lose his disadvantage because of flanking skeletons. He can't have advantage because of Alice's grapple.

Necrotic damage cannot awaken undead, but in this case it did. You did not supply the energy, mithril ore apparently does that, but your choice of flavor of damage resonated with them.

The bulette will attack whatever he wants.

Cat can also grapple it, but there is no additional effect other than the bulette will need to get both of them off to move normally; however, realism is sometimes used. Imagine the notion that a <100 girl can "grapple" a >2000 beast. Don't rely on vanilla hard and fast rules with me.

an interesting question - can we flank the bulette with a skeleton? can skeletons flank us with the bulette?
rn Nixie is flanking the bulette with a skeleton. if Cat moves 5ft NW she also flanks the bulette with a skeleton. letting that thing gain advantage by flanking us must be avoided. but i agree the skeletons can be helpful. their attacks are weak. too bad Yulya cant use animate dead yet.

also i didnt know necrotic dmg can awake undead.

lets take a step back and look at alternatives.
can we make the bulette attack skeletons instead of us?
can Cat also climb on top of it?

[Ashley] If anything,  I'm putting the heads back on the trolls. And you're totally wasting our fodder by taking out the skeletons. Are you nuts?

[Ashley] Yeah, you guys run, I'll tank for Yulya and when he takes me out in one bite mecha-me the troll will be happy to repossess my corpse just to mess with Alice more while I drink tea with SheShe.

Alice grapples the beast and begins her attack. Alice uses Flurry of blows for 1 Ki point for a bonus action and attack with an unarmed strike as well as Hand of Harm (2nd Ki point).
Alice adeptly lands every blow, she couldn't have had a better attack, but the creature resists a fair bit of her bludgeoning damage for a total of 16 damage.
Damn, so it resists bludgeoning damage as well!

With a near deafening bell that kicks up dust and splashes green goo, Yulya's spell rings true on the beast dealing a total of 20 damage on it. However, the necrotic damage seems to resonate with the skeletons in the chamber, eight small skeletons awaken and begin to shift. Wielding whatever they can manage to grasp, they join the battle.
Hey hey I told you this would happen! At least we took put the big guys I hope!
If she can, Alice attempts to shove the bulette prone. If impossible she attacks it with her spear 1-handed. Alice uses her bonus unarmed strike to hit the skeleton N of her with bludgeoning damage. With her Crusher feat, she moves it 5ft W towards the hole. Maybe the skull will roll away and down into the abyss? If possible, she repositions herself on the bulette to be within Cat's Sentinel range, but maintaining a grapple and staying away from the beast's jaws has priority.
