Um.. Oh Dear. Yes, right behind you!" Clifford says running after the axe wielding warrior.

"Of all the days not to prepare my speed extract," he thinks to himself already starting to huff as he runs.

Hack and Clifford run to the sound, and through the gates.

Where's Black Jarret Rigsby?

You run through the northern gate and go east along the road, you reach the sound and you see a girl fighting 3 goblins, unarmed.

Round 1: HP: 22/20, AC 14, Charge, Rage

Hack howls loudly and charges the nearest goblin with his Axe raised high for an overhand blow!

Axe Charge ATT: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 = 22
Axe DAM: 1d12 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

That's one dead.

The Girl attacks a11d20 ⇒ 17, a2 1d20 ⇒ 6
d1 1d8 - 1 ⇒ (4) - 1 = 3 d2 1d8 - 1 ⇒ (5) - 1 = 4
she punches a goblin

Clifford moves up and draws a dagger from his belt sheathe. "Best be on ye way, gobbos." he squeaks at the creatures in goblin.

Actions: move to within 10' - draw dagger

Sorry about the silence guys, just got a new job workin' at a pizza lace and it's kickin' my butt,I'll try to get caught up this week, feel free to dmnpc me if need be.

Sorry for the Delay, I have a cold

2d3 ⇒ (1, 1) = 2
Rogues

They move around hack using 5-foot movements

Gob 2 Atk:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11
Gob 2 Dam:1d4 ⇒ 1

Gob 3 Atk:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10
Gob 3 Dam:1d4 ⇒ 4

Round 2: HP: 22/20, AC 16, Rage

Hack continues to cleave at the next closest goblin with a two-handed slash of his Axe as if he were merely chopping wood.

Axe ATT: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
Axe DAM: 1d12 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

Another one down

Clifford sighs as he is forced to throw his dagger. He steps up to get a better target and is now only ten feet from the fight.

Clipping the goblin across one ear he says to the little beastie in it's own language. "Warned you. Best now to run."

Jarret does his best to get into a flanking position, whether opposite of the unarmed girl or Hack, he brings down the cutting edge of his kukri on the back of the goblin's neck.

attack1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Damage1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
SA Damage1d8 ⇒ 1

Hmm well even if a 1 hits, that's some pretty lackluster damage.

The goblin flips Clifford the bird and does a withdraw action.

Hack, with a speed of 45 feet will attempt to run him down.

Round 3, HP: 22/20, Charge, Rage

Axe Charge ATT: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 = 22
AXE DAM: 1d12 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

And that's the final goblin, chopped right in half, from cranium to crotch.

Hack roars in triumph after slaying the final enemy. He drops to his knees and bends his head while returning to his senses. he stands wearily and walks back to the initial scene with the girl, Clifford, and Jarret.

He is breathing heavily and drags his bloody axe at his side. He smiles a crooked grin between breaths.

Well boys, that was fun. She alright?

Ayla:
Maybe I'll need child aliases?
"I am alright, and thanks for your help."

"The question is are you alright, Hack?" Clifford asks as he bends down to retrieve his dagger. "You look winded."

Nothin' to worry about, Cliff. I just get a bit tired after my blood boils with killin'.

What do they call ya girl?

Ayla:
"My name is Ayla, my father runs the smithy in town.
And what are your names?"

I assume you answer on the way back to town.

While walking back to town...

I am called Hack, and these are my friends Jarret and Clifford. Ayla, what were ya doin' outside the gates, and do goblins normally attack this close to East River?

Clifford gives Ayla a big smile and wonders if he should do any tricks to cheer her up. He pauses in that thought as he waits for the young girl to answer the barbarian's question.

"There could very well be goblins under our very feet at this moment," he thinks to himself.

Ayla:
"I was collecting a few herbs; rat tail, Ginger root and some wild garlic. I also don't fear the goblins."

DMX is looking for a replacement player in Curse of the Crimson Throne AP. If interested note it and I'll place a link.

You arrive back at East-River

"A brave lass indeed," Clifford says with a grin. "But still I don't think it prudent to allow these creatures to just walk about anywhere near this already damaged town."

Following the others back to the tavern he speaks to the two men in a quiet voice. "I am with you if you decide to try and track those little gobbos back to wherever they came from."

Aye, we are glad to have ya, Cliff.

He looks down to the girl.

Does yer dad have any sway with town elders? East River could use our help, it seems.

Ayla:
"My father, Dutch, and Rick manage this village."

Aura:
a girl who looks identical to Ayla comes running to the group.
Ayla, you went collecting herbs again without permission.

Ayla:
"Sorry Aura, but these to did help me."

Ayla, can you tell your dad, Dutch, that we would like to have a word with him?

Ayla:
"Am I in trouble?"

Aura:
"Of course you are, you went out without permission."

Naaa...not at all, just want to talk 'bout the defense of East River.

Ayla:
Breaths a sigh of relief

"I'll take you there."

Aura:
"Mom and dad are still going to know about your little adventure outside."

You get to the smithy.

When do you want to have Creed and Rosa show up? Also is there an ooc thread?

You can appear when you want.

Discussion thread is opened (look at the top, in the discussion tab)

Initializing Alias for here

Hack approaches the Smith.

Hail, I am lookin' fer Dutch.

Dutch:
you see a 6 foot 1 muscular man come out
"I am He."
he spots Ayla and looks and speaks to her
"And where have you been? Not now later."
He looks back at Hack
"And what can I do for you?"

I'm Hack, and we just rescued yer daughter from a goblin attack outside the gates. Killed three of the buggers. Your daughter tells me you are some sort of town leader. Do ya know of the source of the beasties? Me and my friends may be willin' to help.

Clifford watches in silence to new to the whole "adventure game" to know what's a good question to ask. He wants to know where the goblins come from as much as Hack, but believes finding them may be part of the problem.

Dutch:
"I thought so, The goblins were more to the south originally, but now they have setup a camp or camps nearby."

Garry:
as he passes by in a hurry.
"Hey Dutch, can I get 2 new sickles?"

Dutch:
in a quick reply
"Come back this evening and they'll be ready."

"Does anyone know where these camps are?" Clifford asks wondering. "Or know how big they are?"

Dutch:
"I don't know where they are, but the either the Freesword family or the Neilson family may know or have a good guess."

"Hmmm... a mystery to be solved to add to our troubles." Clifford thinks to himself.

"Thank you," he says outloud to Dutch and then asks. "Could you point us in the right direction?"
