With the appearance of the strange goblin, Bron slips out of Patch-eye's saddle as he points at the white bearded goblin and shouts, "Attack!"
With that, he spins on his heels as Patch eye takes off, swinging his flail at the crossbow wielding goblin as he does.

Bron dismounts his faithful steed, putting the fear of gods into the small goblin in front of him. As soon as the horseman is off of his mount, Patch-Eye charges at Whitechin, catching him with a hoof. To everyone's surprise, the goblin chief stil stands.
The goblin that was threatened by Bron retreats, but that does not stop one of the rooftop archers from targeting the cavalier with a bow, striking with deadly precision.
The goblin who had previously hurt Kevorin so badly, moves to attack Valeron, slashing at the cleric, but the blow bounces off of Valeron's armor.
The remaining three rooftop archers take aim at Morghrim, Addie, and Valeron. Of the targets, only Addie suffers any ill effect from the attack.
Round Four:
Addie rocks back a step as the wave of negative energy channeled by the white-bearded goblin washes over her and His Lordship. Before she can regain her balance, she staggers again as she is wounded by an arrow loosed by one of the goblin archers on the roof of the ruined temple.
Sensing His Lordship's fear through the empathic link that the two share, Addie is not surprised to see a black streak as the feline flees to a new hiding spot away from the battle.
Addie takes a moment to touch herself with her healing wand, speaks the activation word, and gives a small gasp as the healing energies flow into her body. Then she moves around the building, trying to come at the goblin priest from a different angle while distancing herself from the archers.
Kevorin will take out and drink one of his cure light wounds potions.
Valeron, Round 5
"Alright gobbo, you've done enough harm today," Valeron bravely shouts out as he seeks to settle Kev's score. He takes a couple steps to his left, circling the goblin but still staying close to the temple to avoid archer fire from above.
His eyes meet Kevorin's and with a nod, he wordlessly communicates to the half-orc to circle behind the troublemaker.
As the goblin drops to the ground, he shrugs at Kevorin as the half-orc's flanking assistance was unnecessary.
"We need to take out those archers on the roof, I'll give you a boost..."
Attack:
Damage:
Also 5ft step to L-10.
Getting ready to quaff another extract, Wart doesn't notice the next black wave until it is too late. He grunts as the pain washes over him again, coursing through him to his very core. He drops to a knee and grunts one final time before falling over unconscious.
Round 5: Grunting in pain, the tough cavalier does his best to ignore the hit as he advances on the little goblin, frustration building as it continues to evade his attacks.
Attack:
Damage:
Patch-eye whinnies as the wave of dark energy washes over him, however, the combat trained mount stands firm as he too presses the attack.

Round 4 Action
Will Save-
Morghrim barely feels the negative energy as he easily resists its touch, then chuckles at the goblin heartily as Shelyn's power not only counteracts the negative energy, but leaves him even less wounded than before.
Is that all the power your puny deity has granted you, scum? Morghrim taunts with a battle-crazed grin as he steps in and hacks at the Goblin-Rat thing with Shelyn's Kiss once more.
Laughing in blood-crazed mirth at the spectacle of Whitechin's head rolling across the ground, Morghrim grunts in pain as two arrows slam into him.
He turns and squints at his attackers, muttering curses and vengeance upon them...
Round Five:
Addie rushes to Wart's side and touches her healing wand to the unconscious halfling, sending healing energies into his wounded body.
Looking up, she stifles a gasp upon seeing the decapitated body of the white-bearded goblin.
Wart suddenly gasps and sits up, looking up at Addie, he nods his thanks, and gulps down the extract he had clutched in his hand. He shakes a little as his body flushes with curative magics. Looking at the arrows sprouting from Morghrim, he pulls the true strike extract out of his sash while standing up.
Toes, heels, toes. Valeron tests his weight in his scale armor while looking up the twelve feet to the temple's first floor roof. "Hrmphh"
He looks longingly at the lithe, lesser armored form of the half-orc towering next to him before he finally resigns himself.
"I'm heading in for a way to the roof."
The cleric disappears into the temple interior.
Double move from L-10 to J-3 temple interior.
Morghrim's wounds continue to heal, as he moves to I15 while putting away Shelyn's Kiss. He then whispers an invocation to Shelyn as a shimmering white light envelops the Dwarf.
Move to I15 while putting away Glaive. Currently unarmed...
Cast Shield of Faith, raising AC to 21.
Healing Judgement continues to heal Morghrim, goes up to 8HP.
Bron charges from his place behind the wall, determined to take care of the only goblin left on the grounds around the temple. Moving south around the crumbled house, Bron whistles for Patch-eye, closing the distance with his horse and pulling himself into his saddle. He would act as the distraction while the others headed in to handle the goblins.
Ride for quick mount:
However, still lacking the skill to climb into the saddle so quickly, Bron simple is able to climb into the saddle as he begins to spin the horse around, shield up on his left side, between the goblin archers and himself.
Kevorin quickly assesses that the doorways in the front lead to towers which could not lead to the upper level, so he too heads for the rear door behind Valeron.
At the beginning of his round 6 action, his rage gives out, leaving him fatigued for the next 8 rounds. This puts his AC up to 14 (15 normal, -1 form the drop in dexterity) and his hp back to 7/16.
Round Six:
Seeing that Wart appears to be in better health, Addie hurries after Morghrim with the intent to heal some of his wounds with her wand when she gets a chance.
Sensing that the strange rat-like goblin is dead, His Lordship emerges from his hiding place and scampers across the square, past Wart, and stops next to Whitchin's decapitated head. The black cat carefully sniffs the head, then turns around and sprays it, marking his territory. His business complete, His Lordship kicks a bit of dirt into the goblin priest's sightless eyes before turning his attention toward his mistress.
Seeing Kevorin accompany him into the temple interior reinforces Valeron's confidence.
Sword and shield ready, he makes his way deeper into the temple interior, following the quick half-orc.
Kev actually goes ahead of Valeron, so he'll encounter any closed doors first (i.e. if the H2 door is closed).
Valeron will double move up the stairs (8 squares) to I-19 since I assume if it is closed, Kevorin will open it before Valeron acts. If it's not closed I suspect Kev will get a chance to move further anyway (16 squares!)
Wart, seeing Morghrim track the goblins to the right, makes a big gamble and shuffles to the right rear of the building, peeking around the corner to see if the goblins have moved to the other side of the building. Seeing movement on the roof, Wart quickly downs another extract and his eyes glass over for a moment before he snaps too and looks at where the goblins are going to be.
His wounds continuing to heal, Morghrim casually draws his loaded crossbow while moving to M14, and takes a shot at the Goblin peeking around the corner in R11.
Kev moves as far as he can (I2) and opens the door leading to the room he guesses the stairs are in.
|
|
Kevorin opens the door to reveal a set of stairs heading up. Just as quickly as Kev opens the door, Valeron hustles up the stairs.
Morghrim moves closer to the temple and takes a shot at a goblin hiding around the corner of the building, the shot narrowly misses as it bounces off of the temple wall.
Wart moves into position and chugs one of his extracts while Addie moves closer to the temple.
|

Bron charges at the goblin peaking out from around the corner while on Patch-Eye's back, easily avoiding an attack from the goblin, but goblin is not so fortunate. Bron's flail crashes up against the side of the goblin's skull, as the goblin's lifeless body slumps to the ground.
The goblin archers drop their bows pulling the horsechoppers from their backs as they enter the building. The lead goblin is somewhat surprised to see Valeron, but takes an errant swing none-the-less.
Looking down to the foot of the stairs, Valeron calls down to Kevorin, "we have company at the top of the stairs."
In a blur, Valeron's longsword slashes out at the surprised goblin.
Free action when goblin attacks Valeron: Call down to Kev.
So that Kev doesn't have to go through I-19 with a tumble or provoke an AOO, we could swap initiatives, so I can make room for him. I'll go ahead and attack/move and open the square for Kev if he chooses to drop a spot in init.
Standard Action: Attack
Move Action: 5ft step to H-19.
Attack
Damage:
Seeing the remaining goblins retreat into the temple, Addie takes a moment to use the wand to heal herself more, and then cautiously moves toward the temple doors.
Seeing the goblins retreat to the temple, Bron leads Patch-eye over to the entrance, sliding out of the saddle once he arrives.
Ride(quick Dismount):
Once the cavalier's feet his the ground, he takes off, into the temple as he shouts "Guard!" back to his well-trained mount.
Wart jumps out from around the corner, prepared to toss a bomb up on the roof. He grunts in frustration as he sees the last goblin walking into the door on the first floor roof. He scans the top floor for just a moment, and sees movement through one of what used to be a floor to ceiling window. He falls back, and uses his momentum to snap a bomb twirling through the air, sailing into the open bay at the movement at the top steps. As the bomb sails through the air, Wart shouts, "INCOMING"
Kevorin gasps and wheezes as he makes his way up the stairs after Valeron. He makes it to the top of the stairs (I assume the actual stairs cost double movement) in his move action, and then attempts to use acrobatics to get to H20
Acrobatics check:
Fatigued for 7 more rounds.

Kevorin lumbers up the stairs and rolls into position. The goblin who was facing Valeron steps between the Iomedian priest and the gasping half-orc, taking another swing at Valeron along the way but missing.
Two somewhat charred goblins move to engage the invaders, one of which strikes Kevorin with a horsechopper.
Kev chops at the goblin that just injured him.
Attack: (Bless and magic weapon still on I assume?)
Damage:
"It's getting crowded up here, " Valeron remarks as Kevorin and him are beset up by now three goblins.
"Let's see if we can clear some space for when Bron or Morghrim get here"
Same goblin I hit last round for 7?
