Torgan shows the might of the yaks as he barrals in and slams through the wooden doors. The large doors easily cave under the immense weight of the huge yak and splinter all over the smaller room.
Inside the building appears to resemble a barn without interior walls or stalls but with workbenches permanently affixed to the sides. The ceiling afters are open and exposed 40 feet above the straw covered earthen floor. There is no fireplace, chimney or light source.
One one of the work tables lies a mithral helm of sorts, crafted in the likeness of the first Jarl Thremyr, ancient god of the frost giants.
Overall the small longhouse appears to be empty but Torgan's bold entrance and extremely loud noise seems to have attracted some attention to the north as he hears hoof beats and calls coming from the slave pens to the north.
You have a matter of minutes before whatever heard you is upon you.

1d20 + 20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 20 + 2 = 34 Spellcraft
Wren explains what the Cauldron of Brewing is to the dwarves, hoping they wait until the camp is secure before using it.
* * *
Wren waits, floating silently, as the dwarves make a lot of racket to open a door. He shrugs, getting used to more noise when they are seemingly trying to keep quiet.
1d20 + 20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 20 + 2 = 37 Spellcraft
"Huh? Why is *this* just lying here?" Wren says of the helm after casting Detect Magic.
He tosses it to a dwarf randomly. J,K,orT?: 1d3 ⇒ 1 Jorgan!
Wren, hearing approaching company, draws the rod of metamagic and hides.
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 Stealth

Jorgan Steelkeg |

Jorgan catches the helm and holds it at arm's length for inspection. "What am I supposed to do with this, huh? What are you doing hiding behind that table, elf? Yer arse is sticking out. You need a pole or something, that would be more fitting."

![]() |

"What am I supposed to do with this, huh?"
"You could put it on your own damn head. Might prevent it from getting taken off, you daft dwarf," Wren grumps back as he realizes Jorgan is right and he's doing a poor job of hiding. "If I have to explain how to use armor to you, dwarf, we have bigger issues than the ones coming down here."

Torgan Steelkeg |

Torgan looks at the bearded helmet in Jorgan's hands from the back of Malt. "Hmm... looks weird. And who'd want to look like a frost giant?" he asks to no one in particular.
At the sound of the incoming troops, Torgan ushers Malt towards a corner near the door, hoping to get an advantageous position in the fight. He also pulls Agrimmosh out and keeps it ready. "Bring it, giants!" he cheers.

Kraygan Steelkeg |

"Good idea. Let's ambush 'em."
Lance in hand, Kraygan steers Haggis to a point in the room just beyond darkvision range with a clear path to the doors.

The group somewhat attempts to hide. Turning around as Wren's natural elven stealth seems to have skipped a generation, you find that Rogzul seems to be a master at the art of hiding as he is absolutely no where to be found. There is not a chance in finding him before a large patrol enters the longhouse.
The door is smashed in! A voice bellows while you hear the sound of an animal sniffing about.
Someone is inside.
At least we have them cornered! Another says. Probably tried to raid the brewery for an extra ration.
Stepping into the room is a patrol of frost giants, accompanied by a singular winter wolf and led by massive eight legged stallion with the torso of a frost giant.
The winter wolf rushes into the building as it chases after the scent. the frost giants trample in after it in wide eyed shock.
Vorog! Some of them slaves escaped!

Round 1, Init 22
Wren looks at the menagerie of giantkin coming into the room. He feels the weight of his new rod and debates his options.
Might as well see if it works or not.
Wren uses the rod to cast a quickened fireball at the quartet, following that up with a glitterdust (getting the top 3, not the wolf).
10d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 2, 6, 5, 6, 2, 1, 1, 5) = 36 fireball vs. DC 20 reflex

Kraygan Steelkeg |

Before the map was updated I had posted an intent to have a clear line to the doors (in order to charge). The map appears to have something between Kraygan and them. Can I assume he was situated to one side?

Torgan Steelkeg |

"WE AIN'T NO SLAVES! WE ARE HEAR TO SLAY YOU!" he yells as Malt rushes in, trying to avoid the attack from the wolf.
Acrobatics-Malt: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8 Probably a useless attempt, but it doesn't hurt to try right?
Torgan charges into the fray, sending Malt into the heart of the fight. "HIYA!" he yells as he grips Agrimmosh with both hands and tries to bring it down on the wolf's head as Malt tries to shove his horns through the animal.
Agrimmosh @ Wolf: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (18) + 17 = 35

Torgan/Malt provoke from the wolf with movement if he fails and if the creature has reach.

Yup- Sorry Kraygan- Meant to swap you and Jorgan. Map is updated.
Completely ready for the patrol, Wren releases an onslaught of arcane energies as fire and glitter pepper the air.
Reflex Vorog: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22
Green Frost Giant: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Red Frost Giant: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Winter Wolf: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
The pair of frost giants shield Vorog and the wolf from the intense heat. Though all four of the patrol seem to be very susceptible to the intense heat as they scream out in pain. Their eyes are now set on killing the elf.
Vorog Will: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29
Green Frost Giant: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Red Frost Giant: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Luckily for the giant's Wren's fireball seemed to have burned away the majority of the magical glitter as it only manages to blind one of the frost giants.
With a whooping yell Torgan rushes in allowing Malt to smash into the smaller wolf with a grotesque crunching sound of bone and flesh. Reaching down Torgan puts the smoldering wolf out of its misery with a solid blow from Aggrimosh.

Kraygan Steelkeg |

Kraygan points his lance at the eight legged freak. "I feel sorry fer the horse yer mother buggered, but yer still giant ugly enough, and I'm comin fer ye!"
With a wordless battlecry Kraygan charges in on Haggis, aiming to take down the lesser giant between them first.
+1 lance + cavalier charge - PA + GH: 1d20 + 17 + 4 - 3 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 17 + 4 - 3 + 1 = 25

Declaring cavalier challenge on Vorog. Everyone gets +2 to hit on him once Kraygan is in melee.

Jorgan Steelkeg |

Knowledge (nature): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (9) + 14 = 23
"Oy, save some for me!" Jorgan yells as he kicks Spirit forward to trap the giants and the svathurim in the corner. "Naught but a nasty cousin of an ice giant." he reassures his companions as he stabs at one of the giants in his way to the svathurim. red giant.
Heartspit: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 2 = 27

damage: 2d8 + 18 ⇒ (5, 1) + 18 = 24

Kraygan charges forward and pounds the end of his sharp lance int the closest frost giant's chest. The lance catches the giant off guard as it rips right through its lower intestines and nearly drops the giant in a single charge.
Jorgan steps in and tries his hand at Vorog. Vorog rears back and Heartspit darts right underneath his many hooves.
Seems I am going to have to go through these little ones to get the elf!
Vorog rears back and stabs his lance at Kraygan and Jorgan.
Lance vs Kraygan AC 29: 1d20 + 22 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 22 - 4 = 28

Backing a small bit into the door Vorog grips the lance in a single hand and stabs it into Kraygan and Jorgan.
The frost giants do as they are told witha determined and extremely overconfident look. Well as overconfident as a blind frost giant looks like.
Greataxe vs Kraygan AC 29: 1d20 + 18 - 3 ⇒ (2) + 18 - 3 = 17

Blind miss chance; low is good: 1d100 ⇒ 51
Greataxe vs Jorgan AC 22: 1d20 + 13 - 3 ⇒ (3) + 13 - 3 = 13
The giants miss. The closest one gets is the blind frost giant's axe catches a small bit of Jorgan's beard catches in one of the jagged ends of the blade.

I think you only counted one of those hits in Jorgan's hp. 46/104 by my count.
Spirit rears up to throw his horns into the red giant and then Jorgan directs the ram to step back so he can safely heal himself.

@Jorgan- The blind miss chance caused it to miss by 1% :)

Torgan Steelkeg |

@Wren: You can cast Scorching Ray once per day (2 charges) from Firestorm!
Torgan cries out as the wolf falls. "HAHA!" The dwarf ushers Malt closer to the giant that attacked his brother and the bovine-dwarf pair proceeds to tear into the lesser injured of the giants.
"You ready for some pain, giant?! GET READY FOR THIS!" he yells as his left hand pulls out Brinya's Love and Malt tries to gore the giant repeatedly.

Wren flies in and fires an arrow at the svathurim. Wren doesn't put enough forch behind his pull of the string and the arrow clatters harmlessly off of Vorog's thick skin.
Haggis dragsthe green frost giant to the ground and grinds his horns into the giant's exposed chest, ripping it open and breaking its ribs.
Kraygan steps in just to have his lance deflected by Vorog.
Svathurim are well above the weakling status of the Frost Giants. You don't stand a chance.
With the remaining frost giant blinded Torgan has little trouble pummeling it repeatedly with Aggrimosh. Malt even manages to break one of its legs as he steps right against its knee.
Jorgan doesn't seem to fare as well as Spirit continues trying to fight but Jorgan pulls him back too soon.
Vorog steps in, his eight legs move in a flurry as they stomp down at Kraygan. The lance swings about to stab at Torgan as he tries to protect the lesser frost giant.

Vorog seems to split his focus in too many directions as he only lands a single blow against Torgan. Hearing Torgan and feeling his yak close by the blind frost giant swings his axe in a wide arc back and forth, in a vain attempt to hit something.

Wren fires a pair of arrows into the blind giant's chest, dropping it to the ground so that the dwarves can move in against the hybrid.
With the giant felled Torgan moves in a couple of feet, trying not to draw its wrath. Malt tries to smash into the Svathurim but it's many lags dance about avoiding the yak entirely.
@ Torgan- Not sure if you wanted to move in completely for your attacks or not. It would provoke an AoO.

Yup- Jorgan has the spear and even with the +2 from challenge a 29 still misses. It is really close though.

Heh, I got Torgan and Jorgan mixed up again.
On another subject, if Vorog doesn't go down this round Kraygan will use his ride skill to drop down beside Haggis for cover (+4 AC).

Kraygan's lance strikes into the Svathurim's torso as Haggis strikes a near critical area in Vorog's midsection as a broken rib causes some nasty internal bleeding.
Jorgan and Spirit don't fare as well as they are not able to penetrate Vorogs thick frozen skin.
Vorog continues his assualt with his lance at the pair of oncoming dwarves as he turns to gore and trample Kraygan with his many feet.
Once you go down I will take the rest back to the slave pens with me!

Hoof 2 vs Kraygan AC 27: 1d20 + 16 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 16 - 4 = 13
Kraygan's tactics narrowly save both Jorgan and Torgan from receiving vicious wounds themselves. Though Kraygan is too focused on fending off the frozen centaur-sicle that he misses a hoove as it strikes him in the shoulder.

Torgan Steelkeg |

Torgan dives down onto the howdah's floor as the gigantic lance passes over his head. He can feel the wind from the strike, but he sighs in relief as he feels for his hair with the back of the hand holding Brinya's Love. "Whew! Ye almost got me, ye giant lummox!" Torgan yells as he hops back up and Malt closes in.
The yak tries to gore the giant-centaur once more as Torgan tries to hack and smash at it.

Take off 4 to hit and damage from each attack if the creature isn't a giant, though you have been counting the dwarf giant bonus to AC, so I kept it in! Looks like a round of whiffs though!

Not a giant. the +4 initially was for a reach weapon going past cover and the second time was for Kraygan's aid another.

Jorgan Steelkeg |

DC 17 defensive casting: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16
Jorgan recognizes that the other dwarves are having better luck wounding the hooved assailant so he tries instead to cast a minor healing spell for Kraygan but fails.
Spirit continues to use his horns though:
gore: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 12 + 2 = 34

Wren melts one of the Svathurim's many legs with a bit of his acid. Torgan seems to be tiring out as he can't manage to land a single blow against Vorog.
"Growing tired dwarf?"
Though Spirit doesn't crit he does manage to get into a critical area. His barbed thorns tear the skin in uneven patterns causing it to bleed a small bit.

None of Kraygan's attacks land.
"Resilient little bastards...." Vorog mumbles. Tired of dealing with Kraygan he backs away a bitto get a better angle with his lance on Torgan.

Hoof 2 vs Kraygan AC 31: 1d20 + 16 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 16 - 4 = 25
The Svathurim seems to be extremely agile at manning the lance with only a single hand as it rams it into Jorgan's chest, knocking the wind from him.
Reeling about Kraygan notices the rest of the attacks are focused on him and drops down beside Haggis's far side for cover. Though it doesn't help much as Vorog notices his feint and gores him with a vicious horn, followed by a thick hoof to a thick dwarven skull.
All of the thrashing about causes Vorog to open his wound and bleed out further.

Rogzul |

That's an awful lot of noise, even for the dwarves. Rogzul thinks as he finally opens one eye, and then the other.
He ducks low coming out from beneath the table, spear brandished and looks around, taking in the situation. "Ah, so the giants are here. I'd just assumed you got fed up with each other."
He jaunts, almost casually over to Vorog and take a jab with his spear, wondering how much s+*@ he'll take from Wren for missing half the fight.

"Told you I'd get him. Way to keep them occupied," Wren says, finally noticing Rogzul nearby. "Hey Squats, you're here? You enjoy your timely trip to the loo?"
Wren circles around a bit, letting any thrashing limbs or death throes end before settling closer to take a better look at the fallen. He casts Detect Magic so that he might better identify things of interest to him.
Any cool/interesting loots/keys/maps?

Kraygan Steelkeg |

"Good job Haggis." Kraygan ruffles he fur on his yak's head. "Good.. uurggh." His rage spent, Kraygan nearly falls from his saddle, ending up hanging sideways before sliding off to the ground and checking his bloody wounds.
"B@ast'rd got me good. Anyone have a healing spell? Or three?"
Kraygan healed 20 points with a potion, and after rage ends that puts him at 29/100 Hp. He has a few cure light potions, but tends to hold those for battlefield emergencies.

Wren finds little of interest on this patrol. The greatest treasure in the room seems to be the helm found just prior to the patrol entering.

Torgan Steelkeg |

Torgan sheaths his weapons as he watches the giant- centaur collapse in death. "Well, that wasn't hard. " he remarks as they gather up the weaponry.
"Should we make our way out and rest or keep pushing onward? " Torgan asks to the group.

Wren leaves the big weapons where they are, the only use they serve to Wren is as firewood.
"We ready to move on yet? What's next in this big plan?" Wren asks, trying to keep lookout while the dwarves heal.
"Do we go back and destroy the brewery now (K)? That's what is going to demoralize them: losing their booze," Wren notes.
Wren looks at the dwarves.
"Now what?" Hit J and work south?

Kraygan Steelkeg |

"I'm about done fer tonight." Kraygan days as he takes a swig of his own personal stash to take off the edge from his wounds. "But th' slave pens might be unguarded now. I say we free 'em n', burn down th' brewery, then make fer the hills to rest up fer tomorrow night."

Jorgan Steelkeg |

"Here," Jorgan says and he sidles Spirit closer to Kraygan and leans over to touch his wounds.

On himself:
cmw: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (6, 4) + 9 = 19
clw: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
And Jorgan is at 79.
Out of first level spells and only have one cmw left but I need to save something if we're moving on.
"If Wren wants to destroy the brewery, then so be it. Maybe we can salvage something though..."
