"Yeh want some more!?"
Borin's axe glances off the kobold, seemingly causing it no harm.
The one in the back skitters away down a passage way.
The two standing in front of the dwarf take a stab at him, and then step back. After their attacks are deflected by his armor, they step back.
Where're yeh lot going!?
Borin swings is axe in another cleaving motion.
Borin's axe tears through the two remaining kobolds, leaving nothing but a bloody mess in its wake.
Airak ends his song as the hall clears.
Loman sees his opportunity. "You will not get away so easily!" he says has he rushes past the Dwarf and after the one that got away.
Like a cat watching a person walk by, Red watches Loman rush down the hall.
Airak encourages others to follow if no one does, but stays with Hunclay.
Loman bolts after the kobold.
He runs through one room with wide steps that have been carved into the rock in each tunnel that intersects with this large cave. A five-foot-wide circular pit is the chamber’s only feature.
He hooks right just barely catching glimpse of the kobolds tail.
Straw is strewn across the floor of this large cave. The ceiling vaults to a height of twelve feet. Three ledges, eight feet off the ground, look out over the main cavern. A five-foot- wide, twenty-foot-deep trench runs north to south through the western half of the cavern, with just one five-foot wide bridge of natural stone allowing passage from one side to the other.
The group steps out into the room just in time to have a barrage of rocks thrown from slings hit them. It reveals two kobolds on their right side ledge.
Loman, his mind still on the chase ignores the stones that bounce of his shoulder. "Found you!" he exclaims as he spots his prey.
With the blood splatter from his prey his eyes narrow as Loman scan the room with a small smile spreading on his face, and what would seem a low growl.
[spoiler=Airak]
Airak hears some rattling of chains coming from the other direction.
[/spoiler
Another volley of slung rocks are thrown at Loman, two manage to strike him. Two of the kobolds throw some rocks at Red in an attempt to stop any interference.
Loman rushes toward his next victim. Blood burning in excitement and rage. He rushes the larger group ignoring the pebbles thrown at his back. Swinging with his Great sword, he bellows at the Kobold he intends to kill.
Not wanting to give up her spot next to Inwinsme Red readies to move if she does
Inwismë, content to stay put, casts grease at the pair of kobolds on the small ledge.
Airak sets Hunclay down carefully and takes his mace back a few steps to make sure more trouble isn't cumming from behind.
One manages to keep a footing while the other falls off the ledge and land softly, but prone.
Another barrage of slinged rocks hits Loman, manages to catch him hard on his hand, but he keeps a hold of his greatsword.
Two of the kobolds notice Inwisme making strange noise and decide to try to stop more of that. One of the manages to catch her in the shoulder.
The kobold that fell of the cliff stands up and grabs his spear, looking ready to charge at Red!
With little concern of the events occurring behind him, Loman moves to strike down another of these foul creatures.
The kobold that fell charges at Red. The spear pierces her shoulder!
Another barrage of rocks are thrown at Loman.
Tyler channels positive energy.
Red cries out as she shove the kobold as hard as she can.
Loman steps up and swings at the creature he failed to hit on his last swing, his breathing grew heavier but he was not about to give up yet.
Swinging wide to have a better chance at hitting the foul thing, Loman connects hard on its side and doesn't stop. His swing comes full circle with the body of the already dead creature coming to a thud at the bottom of the trench and him facing the other two Kobolds.
Borin suddenly rush to the front of the group and swings at the nearest enemy.
Borin smashes the kobold with his axe.
Tyler moves up ahead of Borin with his shield raised.
The kobolds arms seem to be tired as none of slung rocks reach him.
The kobold on top of the ledge gets a good shot over Tyler's head and hits Borin in the head.
Airak cautiously moves down the tunnel in the dark
Airak comes across a trio of Kobolds that have three captives. He recognizes two of them as Carlo and Sela Bellathi, a married couple, and peddlers of religious charms. They had not been seen in town for over two months. The other woman he was not familiar with.
The kobolds seem to be attempting to keep them quiet with threats of violence that is occasionally followed through.
Loman charges the two Kobolds in front of him taking a swing at one of their heads.
He loops off it's head effortlessly.
Tyler climbs his way on top of the edge, but loses his balance and misses the nimble kobold.
The kobolds begin to lose their morale as neither of the last two kobolds manage to strike their opponent.
Airak quietly runs back to the group.
"There are more kobolds back this way, and they have captives!"
Inwismë hesitates, unsure of what to do or which way to turn her attentions in the bottleneck.
Borin races towards the next kobold, readying his axe.
Borin swings his axe wildly, missing the kobold completely.
"Aye, that's embarrassing."
Loman loses some of his footing getting of the way of the kobold's attack and his swing comes up short.
The kobold is too nimble for Tyler, as his swing goes over the kobold's head.
[spoiler=GM]
Tyler gasps in pain as the kobold's spear pierces his armor and swipes his leg.
The kobold's spear bounces harmlessly off of Borin's dwarven armor.
Weary but still fueled by hate Loman brings his sword to the Kobold once more in an upward swing.
Even in the tight quarters the nimble creature seemed to just dodge another attack. Was it the creature getting smarter, or was it him reaching his limit. The foul beast seemed to give a little sneer at his lacking and Loman could feel the rage beginning to surface again. He needed to focus.
Borin swings again...
"Take that!"
Airak anxiously keeps an eye down the tunnel, hoping they can make it back in time.
Tyler swings at the kobold and misses entirely.
The kobold's thrust is deflected off of Tyler's shield and steps off the ledge.
Loman moves the other side of the gorge and attempts to take advantage of the Kobold that just jumped off the cliff.
Airak begins to sing, almost under his breath as he keeps his eyes glued down the hall. (bard song +1 attack/damage)
"We can tell by the fact the rooster just crowed
we've got to go and get ready.
We can tell by the fact that the sun is up
we've got to do our chores.
CHORUS
Hurry up!
Hurry up!
Another day's begun.
Hurry up!
Do hurry up!
We don't want to have to run.
2
We can tell by the fact that our mum's getting cross
we've got to go and get ready.
We can tell by the fact that the sun is up
we've got to get to work.
Hurry up!
Hurry up!
Another day's begun.
Hurry up!
Do hurry up!
We don't want to have to run.
3
We can tell by the fact that she's really cross now
we've got to go and get ready.
We can tell by the fact that she's counting to ten
we've got to get to work.
Hurry up!
Hurry up!
Another day's begun.
Hurry up!
Do hurry up!
We don't want to have to run."
Tyler drops down behind the kobold to cut off it's escape. He swings with a downward motion as the kobold side steps it.
The kobold steps back and misses Tyler with a riposte.
Borin goes in for another attack.
Damage x2 = 20.
Borin brings his axe high over his head and tears through the wretched creature. The kobold seems to explode into a red mist, leaving just its small leather shoes in their place.
Tyler takes a step back and wipes his armor clean with a handkerchief.
Hunclay does not react as he is unconscious in the other room.
Borin turns and runs down the hall way towards the next group of kobolds.
"We should investigate the captives first," Inwismë said, turning back to investigate.
Airak quietly leads the others back to the room with the captives.
Borin doesn't observe anything too strange out of the crude stonework done by the kobolds.
What he does see though boils his blood.
In front of him and the rest of his group is a trio of Kobolds that have three captives. He recognizes two of them as Carlo and Sela Bellathi, a married couple, and peddlers of religious charms. They had not been seen in town for over two months. The other woman he was not familiar with.
Before he launches his assault, he spots on the kobolds striking Sela with the blunt end of his spear.
