Targost casts Mend on all the damaged weapons.

This will take about 30-60 minutes, so the Enlarge will have worn off.

Anything else the rest of the party wants to do while Targost is busy casting?

Actually... Reading the spell, you don't have the caster level to mend the items as they are too heavy!

Yeah, the Earthbreaker is a bit bigger than 2 lbs. No worries, the melted lumpy look is kinda scarier than the spikes anyway... XD
Frowning at his lumpy weapon, Ebon shrugs, and carrying it over his right shoulder prepares to move along...

Alexia follows the others, saying nothing.

Feeling uneasy, Talwin asks:

"I'm not sure I got good look at the door. I'd hate to trip some ancient trap. Anyone else care to examine it before we go through?"

If I can take ten, I will for a 19. If that, along with anyone else's searches turn up nothing, Talwin will try the door, looking into the next roon before actually entering it.

Talwin studies the wooden door and although he doesn't see anything out of the ordinary he does hear some sounds coming from behind the door. High squeeky voices and some metal clanging.

"I hear voices on the other side. Opening door in 5...4...3...2...1..."

Talwin whispers to his friends. If interrupted, he will stop his hand. Otherwise will open once he and Ebon flank door. He will look inside before entering.

Alexis brings to mind the words of a sleep spell, making ready to cast if what lies beyond the door is an enemy.

A wall of rusted iron bars dominates the northern half of this room, dividing the area up into three individual cells. In the southern half of the room is a grisly looking table bedecked with manacles and blood. On the wall behind the table hang gruesome, blood-stained tools and other implements. Wooden doors stand on the east and west sides of the room, and a hall to the southeast winds upstairs.

In the cells are goblins, but all of them are somehow mutated:

Red: This goblin has scales on its skin
Blue: This goblins hide seems to shine like a mirror
Green: This goblin is moving very fast inside its cage
Orange: This one seems to have an extraordinary big mouth (even for a goblin)
Purple: This goblin has tentacles instead of legs
Yellow: This goblin has a third arm

They are very restless and are shaking the cell doors making a lot of noise!

Alexia casts sleep on the cells, hoping to quiet the creatures.

Alexia casts sleep on the cells, hoping to quiet the creatures.

From your current position, you can only target the last 3 goblins

Alexia starts casting.

Initiative!

Alexia: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Targost: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Ebon: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Talwin: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Red: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Blue: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
Green: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 4 = 16
Orange: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Purple: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
Yellow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Black: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Ebon is up!

Putting Ebon in Delay for now

The spellcasting of Alexia is interrupted by the clang of a lever that is pulled and the doors of the cages open! The culprit of this action, a tiny, vaguely humanoid creature that looks like a toothy, winged devil flies away down the corridor! (I've put the token on the map to give you glipse, but he already moved south).

The mutated goblins come out of their cages and attack the party!

The speedy goblin (green) moves up to Alexia and attacks!

To hit: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

The tentacle legged goblin (purple) uses his tentacles to climb the wall and approach from above!

The scaly goblin (red) walks to the bloodstained tools and picks up a bonesaw.

The big mouthed goblin (orange) moves towards the bloodstained table and licks some of the blood of it.

The shiney goblin (blue) walks to the tools and picks up a large hook.

The three armed goblin walks towards the bloody instuments as well.

Not thinking of parley with a pack of goblins, Talwin drops back a step.

"Alexia, step to the side here so I can get a clear shot!"

He readies an action to stab at the closest goblin (green) once Alexia moves into the space he just vacated.

Readied Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage?: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

If you have an attack in mind Alexia, that's fine. You should be able to 5' step after attacking, I think. I just don't want to try hitting through cover.

Targost takes aim and fires at the purple tentacled goblin

Attack-ranged: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Targost and Talwin both fire arrows, but they miss their targets!

Ghosting Alexia's spell completion

Alexia's sleep spell completes! and she targets it in such a way that the closest two goblins (green and purple) are in the area of effect.

Willsave
green: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
purple: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

The tentacled goblin fails its mental save vs the spell and falls asleep!
His tentacles let go of the ceiling and it falls down! to hit: 1d20 ⇒ 4 Missing the speedy goblin, but taking falling damage and waking up! falling damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Alexia will step back, as Talwin requested (that may subject her to an AoO). She then begins casting summon monster I.

AoO Green: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
AoO Purple: 1d20 + 3 - 4 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 3 - 4 - 4 = 0

Both goblins miss their attacks of opportunity

Ebon steps back into the pool and tries to hit the speedy goblin!

The tentacle legged goblin stands up (provoking)

The three armed goblin picks up a scalpel and moves forward.

The shiney goblin moves forward and throws the hook trying to hit Ebon between the eyes!

To hit: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 - 4 = 13 Misses!

Alexia finishes her spell, bringing a celestial eagle into existence and sending it into battle. It attacks any goblin it can reach.

Eagle vs. Goblin (talon): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Eagle vs. Goblin (talon): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

The toothy goblin smiles as Tagost misses him completely.

"Stupid longshanks, we're going to eat you! But first we're gonna hurt you, like you longshanks hurt us!"

Alexia finishes her spell, bringing a celestial eagle into existence and sending it into battle. It attacks any goblin it can reach.

Alexia's eagle appears atop of the three armed goblin, which it attacks!

damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (5, 4) + 8 = 17
And hits the wall behind them, unsure of his aim in this enlarged state...
Bummer. Rage, attack and miss orange goblin. Not sure on status of mother, was fine when I left to return home, but went back into hospital today with fluctuating, heart rate...

Becoming frustrated with missing the little beasts, Targost fires an azure bolt at the red goblin.
