Strike

Roll 3 twenty-sided dice and keep the highest result (this is Elven Accuracy — the half-feat that turns advantage into rolling three d20s instead of two; it only fires when you'd already have advantage). Add +11. Compared against AC 18: you hit if the kept d20 face plus the bonus totals 18 or more (so the d20 needs to land on at least 7). A natural 20 always crits, regardless of AC. On a hit, deal 1 12-sided die, plus 5. On a crit, double the damage dice (the 1d12+5 becomes 2d12+5); flat modifiers stay the same.
