Poog aims a fire bolt at Vorka, but misses. He then steps forward to confront Lord Longtung.

Mogmurch takes careful aim and shoots a bolt. Had Vorka's barkskin potion still been in effect the bolt would've missed for sure, but without it Vorka's fate is sealed: the bolt hits her square in the chest.

"Vorka want... want eat y... you!" Vorka manages to say, and coughs up some blood. She falls onto her knees, grins like the crazy goblin she is, then hits the cabin's floor with her face.

Lord Longtung croaks loudly, and runs away from his dead owner. Poog and Mogmurch quickly jump out of its way, not very eager to be block the giant frog's pat hand risk being bitten.

Combat's over.

Poog and Mogmurch find three potions of cure light wound on Vorka's body, They quickly pour the potions into the mouths of their unconscious comrades. They also happen to notice one of the potions claimed by Reta earlier looks very much the same, as does a potion Chuffy's carrying.

CLW, Chuffy: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 4/11 HP
CLW, Reta: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8 -3/13HP
CLW, Reta: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 -1/13HP
CLW, Reta: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 1/13HP
CLW, Reta: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9 10/13HP

Both Chuffy and Mogmurch are able to stand up.

Vorka's AC without barkskin: 15.
Awesome! xD


Vorka's Cabin

The air in this cabin is thick and close, stinking of swamp and sweat, with a thick, glistening layer of mud on the floor and swaths of oily fungus clinging to the walls. Even more dangling decorations of goblin bone and animal-part fetishes hang from the ceiling on lengths of sinew here, and what appears to be a nest made of rags, sticks, mud, and castoff bits of clothing lies against the westernmost wall. But scattered amid the filth and clutter are several exotic-looking man-made objects—including a tantalizing red chest.

The man-things—objects that once belonged to the crew of Kaijitsu’s Star but were left behind when the crew abandoned ship—are certainly worth something. The majority of these objects are filthy and broken, but 10 minutes or so of sorting and scavenging turns up some interesting finds. All of these items (broken and functional alike) are strangely decorative, depicting colorful serpentine dragons, towering cliffs, delicate humanoid figures, and strange pagodas—not that a goblin would know a pagoda from a tool shed. Even the filthy or broken clutter here could be worth about 600 gp to the right collector, but as they are mostly made of bamboo, exotic wood, and in some cases paper, they’re probably more fun to burn. Among the more obviously valuable objects are 140 gp, a bejeweled silver and jade lantern built to look like a coiled dragon worth 150 gp, a dozen masterwork shuriken, an ivory and gold fan depicting a gecko walking amid cherry blossoms worth 80 gp (the reverse side of this fan has been used by Vorka to draw a crude map of Brinestump, not unlike the one Scribbleface created, and contains a secret that the goblins are unlikely to decipher anytime soon), a long hairpin with a red pearl at one end worth 150 gp, a wand of create food and water with only 2 charges left, and an elixir of love in a crystal vial shaped like a heart (the vial itself is worth 50 gp).

The red chest, though, is the object of your quest. Unlocked, it contains several fireworks. The chest itself is heavy and worth 150 gp, and there were obviously once many more fireworks within (Scribbleface managed to steal many of them by sneaking into this room while Vorka was out hunting), but those that remain should be more than enough to satisfy the chief for at least a few days. The fireworks in the chest consist of 14 Desnan candles, 20 paper candles, and seven skyrockets.

Conclusion

The party manages to get the fireworks back to their village without using them all or “accidentally” setting them off, and you return as heroes. A big feast is given in your honor, and His Mighty Girthness Chief Rendwattle Gutwad decides the lucky Mogmurch, who defeated Vorka in the end, should marry his daughter—the fearsomely corpulent and ferociously lusty Gupy Wartbits. All of you are given prominent tribal positions as well. Reta becomes Head Village Walk-Up-And-Cut-Them, Chuffy becomes Master of the Up and Down, Poog Overseer of Going Up, and Mogmurch gains the brand new title Boss of Big Fire and Shooting Pointy Sticks.

What the goblins do with the fireworks they recover, and what happens when they figure out the meaning of the images and map symbols scribbled onto the back of the ivory fan found in Vorka’s den, sets into motion a series of events that will have repercussions far beyond Brinestump Marsh, in the distant land of Minkai. (These events await discovery in the Jade Regent Adventure Path.)
