Zoren clumsily urges the horse on.
Unnaturally smart goblins?
The halfling smiles at that, and keeps his eyes to the trail, looking for more traps. Soon, you turn left, and go through the forest. The brush is unusually thick, causing you to imagine what other parts of the forest might be like. Sektor dismounts his horse. To thick for them. Don't think we'll need horses from now on. And, don't worry, they know their own way back With that he continues. Suddenly, a net drops down from below, entangling Sola and Sektor in it's grasp!
Pausing for a second Korak stops and scans the trees for enemies.
You see 3 goblins running away, laughing madly. Their eyes widen as they see that you have spotted them. Two almost throw their spears, but a larger one stops them, and they continue running
Korak points forward at the goblins. They run and laugh instead of fight. He turns to Sektor. Do you know of any friendlier tribes of goblins in this area?
Tangled in the net, Sektor replies, looking a bit annoyed. All killed and conquered, as far as I know..... But there might be one, just West of here. Rumors were that they were conquered, but others say that they flee from the attack, and managed to survive
Korak helps them untangle themselves. Hmm. What do you guys think? If they're friendly I'd hate to annoy them by taking the net. But if they were just too scared to take on a large group I'd hate to leave it with potential enemies.
Sektor helps Sola up and nods at Korak. We should take the net and give it to them, if they really exist.. Better friends than enemies.. But what do the rest of you say?
"Maybe, we need to convince them that we mean them no harm.
Aye. T'would be best to leave as many friends behind us as we can. Yeh never be knowin when yeh might need them.
Thank you She says accepting the help up, if you wish to try a more diplomatic approach i will not argue.
Ah rest yer hammer it was but a net. It maybe be nothin but a wee prank.
Believe me Gorn, i wish to see some blood as well. but let's let them try their way before ours, dearie
Sektor nods. Wise. He begins leading the way, eyes open for any other traps. You manage to spot a few, and easily disarm them, as they are of crude quality. You continue walking, until a goblin walks up to you. Me's name is Chief Stormslaver the Great, he says, puffing up his chest in a failed attempt to look brave Why you be on my territory!
Zoren turns to Korak and whispers:
You know, I thought there would be more than just the chief coming to greet us.
We come to make peace.
Aye. We think some of yours played a wee bit of a prank, but we not be wanting any trouble.
Another goblin appears behind Chief Stormslaver, clearly look more composed. He whispers into the chiefs ear, and you hear something about magic items. The chiefs eyes go wide. He shouts Attack!. 6 goblins pop out from their hiding places behind trees, spears and torches in hand.
[ooc]This is bad[/b]
Goblin 5, grinning and laughing, throws a torch at Brawnen. The torch ignites the ground beside her.
Goblin three attempts to throw a torch at Korak, but misses, igniting the ground between them.
Goblin 6, probably less tactically smart as his comrades, charges at Korak with a spear.
Goblin 4 throws his torch at the ignited grass beside Brawnen
Goblin 1 moves to guard his chief, and attacks Zoren
Gorn's blow completely severs the goblin's body in half
Brawnen aims her bow at the goblin who threw fire at her
Brawnens arrow sails toward the goblin, hitting him in the chest. However, it bounces off it's armor, doing no damage.
Goblin 2 throws fire at Gorn, missing, and landing halfway between them.
Zoren stabs the goblin in front of him with his shortsword.
Sola moves and attacks
Damage = 8 if confirms
Korak swings his hammer at the beast, next to him.
Ye wee beasties made a bad choice here today little 'uns!
Korak's hammer swings right beside the goblin, while Sola manages to hit the goblin, totally annihilating it
Zoren will move 1 square right and 1 up and attack the chief.
Zoren's attack misses the chief, who calls on his henchmen to simply wait as the fire spreads.
