Oghren runs to closest goblin and swings his great axe!
"May the light burn away the darkness with in you."
Eerie flops down cross-legged clapping gleefully and giggling, clearly his energy has returned. "Jes! JES! I knew lord would not let me down! A group of murderers! JES!"
Aukan screams his war cry as he charges at the nearest living goblin. Oghren won't get all the glory again!!!
Snow moves out of the inn, her eyes darting back and forth watching the efficient killers do thier work and searching for any additional hidden goblins. Cocking her head slightly at Eeerie’s observation and response. She then darts off to the side
Seeing none, she darts to the side out of sight of the party in an attempt to hide and observe the new companion without her knowing. Oh and watch out for more goblins...
|
Aukan charges up and buries his axe into the second goblin!
As Snow scans the area and keeps a stray eye on Kella, she spots a pair of goblins emerge from a nearby watchtower drawn by the ruckus and Aukan's battlecry!
Initiative:
Aukan, Sliver, May, and Snow may go first. If they are not dead by then, Dalron and them go at the same time (I can use your sacred flame roll if you want or you can roll again). Then, after that, Eeerie and Oghren can go...
May walks up to be nearer to the goblins , looks at her fingers as she wiggles them, and since they're still a bit away, shoots a fire bolt in the direction of the one that's still in one piece.
Eerie just continues his giggling and clapping, chanting, "Murder! Murder!..."
Sliver takes a shot at the goblins.
for bludgeoning Damage
Snow springs from the hidden location behind the barn and attacks the goblins.
If she has suprise
This is the quarterstaff advantage roll.
Doesn’t look like it matters.
Oghren Dwarf Friend! Did you see my mighty blow! Wakpa We!
Aukan charges off at the nearest Goblin, striking out while singing a mountain clan's solemn song.
I am Titan-Bane! I have fallen many foes! My axe bites deep!
|
|
Aukan's axe buries itself in the chest of the goblin! The goliath feels the satisfying series of pops as it cleaves through each rib...
At almost the same time, Snow blows across the field, swinging her staff at the other goblin's head! The little creature ducks that blow and laughs aloud until her spinning backhand snaps its neck!
Uh, clockwise?
Are these goblins Gray-tooth as well?

Clearing out the watchtower at 2E, you find a pair of sacks stuffed full of things ransacked from the area.
Sack 1: Aside from a bunch of rubbish, there are a couple sets of wooden eating utensils and three vials of perfume.
Sack 2: A stuffed (taxidermy) blood hawk, a battered copper tankard emblazoned with the visage of a grinning halfling (worth probably 1 gp), and several articles of clothing.
As you continue a clockwise search pattern around the perimeter, you find that the residence (4H) has been partially collapsed by a huge boulder. As you investigate, you find the bodies of an elderly human couple. The woman was crushed under a fallen wall, and what you assume to be her husband, seems to have died of what you can only assume is fright!
You find that one of them seemed to have been the town's notary and records keeper, as you find a writing desk along with records and wax-seals, etc. You also find a pouch of gold stuffed in the back of the drawer containing 32 gp and 17 sp. The signature on many of the records is Melantha Xelbrin.
As Mayberry walks by a bookshelf, there is a flurry of movement and a flap of feathered wings as a winged cat flies from a hiding place and out the window!
---
You continue around the perimeter and first see the tower to your left. (2F)
A falling rock punched through the roof of this tower, collapsing everything but the outermost wall. A search of the debris unearths the broken remains of a ladder and a battered wooden door with broken hinges.
But to your right, you all notice a pair of footprints in the muddy path up to the windmill. Sliver quickly points out that they belong to a pair of goblins, by the length of their toenails and the length of their stride.
EDIT: @Sliver, yes, this seems to all be one tribe...
Tapping his chin, "Do we check on our tied up goblin or clear out the windmill?"
"Lets clear the Windmill then we can check on the goblin, even if he is awake he is still tied up."
Stretches shoulder muscles before heading to windmill.
Heh ha! Heh ha! I have slain two of the Grey Tooth Heh Ha! Heh Ha! and their Four Legs! Aukan chants as a victory hymn as he travels with the group.
Eerie stands up, follows the crew about and says quietly to himself as if talking to somebody else, "They are merciless killers! This so exciting! Lord would looove this!"
"I agree. We clear the windmill, then go back and see if our captive has any information for us. After that, we finish the area past the chapel and, finally, the keep."
Feeling a sense of comradary with the winged feline, Snow exits and tries to find the creature. Moving around the building she purrs loudly in an attempt to find the creature.
Pulling out a strip of dried fish from her personal rations, she tries to lure the flying cat to her while watching out for the pesky goblin rodents.
Snow agrees with the others to clear the windmill and then return to the inn to question the goblin. She reprimands herself for taking her watchful eyes off of the newcomer, but her airborn cousin was too strong of a distraction to resist.
Mayberry agrees, That sounds like a great plan. How many more goblins do you think remain here still? But even as she asks the question, she wanders off behind Snow, curious to see what flew past her. As she watches Snow try to befriend the flying cat, she backs up to the others, not wanting to interfere. But she does keep looking back.
If she'll talk, she strikes up a conversation with Kella.
Dalron starts to walk to the Windmill ready to be attacked with his shield up.
Oghren follows Dalron up the hill. "Surprised our fighting across the path didn't call attention to us."
Eerie has stopped his muttering and giggling now and just quietly follows the group with his creepy smile.

Snow, through all of her ministrations, manages to coax the winged cat out and it greedily munches on the food that she offers. After a short few minutes, the tressym alights on the tabaxi's shoulder. Snow notices that the cat has a collar with a little ID tag, with the name Rillix imprinted on it.
Mayberry strikes up a conversation as they watch Snow and the tressym and as they walk down the road. Kella is not the most talkative, nor does she seem to be very comfortable around people. That being said, May does manage to strike up a conversation. You find that she is originally from Yartar, to the north and that she was supposed to meet some friends here, but she is not sure that they are coming anymore.
As you all approach the windmill, you are not attacked...
Aukan calls out Friends! Our fierce Battle Spirit has chased the goblins away! as he strides towards the Windmill
Sliver notes that both Snow and May have made a friend. He continues toward the windmill taking more caution as he gets close to it.
"Careful people they could be waiting for us." As Dalron moves foward.
Oghren points to sliver and them uses his fingers to show walking, then points to eyes and has his two fingers looking up.
Dalron readies his shield to block arrows or spears from above.
He looks at the others and nods for the door to be opened.
If not she stays toward the back and protects her new friend. For now anyway.
Aukan looks around at his allies attempting to be quiet.
You shame yourselves! Aukan Knows-No-Fear does not cower before stinking Goblins. he says incredulously
I am Aukan! Titansbane! Slayer of the Goblins and their Four Legs! I have bested two of your number this very day! Throw down your weapons Goblins! Or do not, it will be Glorious Battle then!
Aukan walks through the door, trying to draw attention to himself.
If Aukan can get to them, he screams war cry and attempts to get to them.
