Zevon drops the thorn.
He see's the dwarf gurggling on the ground a pool of blood surrounding him and elation washes over Grokar "Kill the dwarfs, kill them all" the voice of his old battle chieftain echos through his head. Then another on, fainter, but possibly more forceful is remembered "Know when to give in and when to hold back. Everything is not your enemy." The voices fade and he's back in battle. Somehow he drew his wand and holding it aloft he booms the command words he stows the wand as he begins to grow and stands ready for battle.
"If they die, so to shall you" He hears the voice one last time before glaring out at his foes through a red haze of battle.

green thorn
Grokar, Banba
Bale moves behind the huge orc and buffs him for battle while going into another loud, high pitched rant.
"We all gonna dies causes that elfs stolt mys wands!!! Why he not uses the swords??? Is he afraids??? Why he bees afraids? He just kilt ones. How I keeps this huge things alive with this itty bitties wands? Tells me Zevons!!! Maybe I eat elfs for the dinners tonight. RHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!."
You think it possible that you may have permanent damage to your hearing.
"Attacks that satyr, cats."
The cat instinctivly takes a 5 ft step to flank with Grokar and attacks the satyr.
Rhen stops bleeding out
Bulgard takes a five foot step back and fires two more at the green thorn.
You are large with a reach weapon. He is 10 ft away. I am under the impression that you threaten at 15 and 20.
Oh man, you're right, I positioned myself wrong I was thinking I threatened 10-15.
Your character is actually pretty complicated. Fun to play and the damage he does is can be awesome. Cannot wait to see what you do with Bull's Strength on top of rage and enlarge. And, we are due a crit or 5. So many 1s have been rolled by pcs in this encounter.
Zevon passes the wand over Rhen
Rhen begins moving rapidly backwards away from Grandma-ma. She yells "Go to church more often, sweetie pie!" The light gets smaller and disappears. The gray mist gets darker until all is darkness.
The green thorn replies to Banba in sylvan and double moves across the room.
Zevon's voice finally gives out on him. He can sing no more at this time.
Rhen, Bale, Bulgard, Zevon,
green thorn
Grokar, Banba <=========
Grokar roars as another arrow[/ finds its mark, he takes a fe steps back and swings at Banba.
That was quite the blow. It is obvious Banba cannot take too many more of those. He withdraws from combat, circling around the back side of the cat.

Bale tap the Grokars withs his itty bitties wands.
"Attacks that thorn, cats."
The cat obeys.
Bale moves to Rhen.
Rhen snores loudly
Zevon rushes forward pulling a bottle of fire from his belt. He hurls it a Banba's feet.
It hits the wall behind Banba. Banba takes a minute amount of damage.
Bale, Zevon
Rhen, Bulgard <===========
green thorn
Banba, Grokar
Rhen wakes up with start, "Mema, dun ya knew that me stupid kin kicked meo outta the church fer drinkin' and thievin'?" Rhen looks around then shurgs not seeing his mema and picks up his sword as he does.
Bulgard moves to within point blank range of Banba and fires two more CI arrows.
Bulgard's arrows drop the satyr. When he sees Banba fall, the green thorn withdraws from the fight and dives into the trees below. End initiative.
You hear footsteps quickly scuffling in the direction of the thorn's exit. You see nothing. Suddenly there is a loud crack as a bolt of lightning originates at a point shoulder high in the southwestern corner of the room. It travels in the direction of the fleeing thorn.
You hear the dead body falling through the trees.
Ivicerus becomes visible to you, the stroke having originated from his outstretched finger.
His robe is heavily starched and pressed to perfection. It is in immaculate condition, making him look out of place in these environs. He wears an amulet, a ring, a headband, and a gal-ralan. A spiked chain is wound up and hangs from his waist. Without pause he begins speaking quickly and to the point, showing no expression. "The Gossamer court has ruled the river treaty violated by Wingclipper and thereby nullified. Darkmoon Vale and Wood is fey territory again. The court offers you this as thanks for alleviating us of Wingclipper and Banba. He offers you what looks like a precious stone. "Make your way back quickly."
"Yer sayin' laddy that them Fey be comin' en number ta take over wood again?" Rhen grabs whatever he can carry and heads out
Ivicerus moves to banba and taps his foot with impatience.
"Ye want me to just kill em?" RHen asks the new commer
"My directive is to bring him back alive for trial. Your solution seems more appropriate." Ivicerus steps away from the dying satyr.
Rhen moves forward and lines his blade up with the throat to the Dying Satyr, dropping it heavily into the enemy finishing him off quickly.
Mission accomplished, Ivicerus leaves the room by climbing down the ladder.
Bale dust himself offs. "That bees an easy fights. The Nortson goods in fight."
Bale pick up the cats and put it in his backpacks. He pick up the foxs and stroke it. "You bees wanting hims back too, Bulgards? Bale keeps hims if soos. Bale takes good cares of the animals. I sees a door in theres where foxs was."
He hold out an opens pouch sos the Bulgards can fills it with the golds like he promise.
Grokar comes out of his rage when he realizes that the man does not pose a threat to him. He continues to scan the room for a few seconds while breathing heavily and then becomes aware that Rehn is not, in fact, dead.
"Rehn" He says with jubilation, "You are not dead, you dwarvs very hard to kill. I'm glad you did not die." His smile grows wider when he sees the dwarf kill the helpless Banba. "You kill a helpless fey, you be welcome in my clan."
He then addresses Bulgar "Smelly human shoot good" he grunts in approval and finally speaks to Zevon. "You did not light me on fire. You light me on fire I have to kill you. You did not light me on fire. Thank you." He bows and adds "Where we go now, we get paid? We get drink?"
Zevon winks at the half-orc.
A little singe never hurt anyone. Back to the Hollow then, for some well deserved rest.
"Aye back and quick so I dunn haf ta be killin' more o' them smelly fey." Rhen says heading outside
Bulgard deposits 10 gold pieces in Bale's pouch.
Th-thanks for the help. You did quite well!
Bulgard walks over and searches Banba's body. As he rolls the body around, you hear murmurs that sound something like
f-fffff-feckin goat...
On Banba, Bulgard finds bracers of armor +1, ring of protection +1, masterwork rapier, masterwork shortbow with 30 arrows, 3 elixirs of love, pipes of sounding, and two potions of cure moderate wounds.
"Be sendin' that goblin down ere, I want ta try ridin' one o' these big toads. Ye long legged people walk to fast, no steady, This will be makin' ye run ta keep up with me." Rhen yells while laughing at his own thoughts.
As Bulgard follows the others, the foxs jump from the Nortson and follow his master. "Bale gets you toad mounts, Rhens." He see that one is already saddled and bridled. He take the masterworks saddle he mades for Wingsclipper and strap it onto the toad.
When yous are longs gone, the Nortson decide to see what behinds the door he tells you abouts. He check it for traps. He know the Wingsclipper trap this door. No traps. He carefullys crack opens the door. He see a huge pits viper sitting on a large pile of gold. He casts talks to animal and point the wands of charms animal throughs the crack. "Gets out of my ways, snake." This room bees 10 by 10 foots. Just golds and precious jewels. Bale bees rich!!! It is alls he can dos to picks up his backpack afters he fills it withs the golds and precious jewels. "Bale go to Verdurans Forests. He like it there. Many more likes me there."
Igar should reduce your gold by this amount. Not only did you not search, Bale told you about the door. Igar The Terrible decides to let it slide.
I need to live up to my name. Cutting you too much slack, I am. Expect no more coddling from me.
It is 12:30 pm, Day 4. You gather up the loot in the mercenary tents that you found previously. You camp at the Emissary Stone the first night and by the cart of cold iron the next. While on watch that night, Bulgard encounters a wolf. The two hit it off as if Bulgard had raised him from a pup. Bulgard names him Khador. You push the cart back to town and arrive in Falcons hollow at 3:30pm.
The month is Rova, the day is Toilday. Tomorrow is the new moon.
Sunrise: 6:34am, Sunset: 6:50pm, Moonrise: 5:51am, Moonset: 6:48pm
Bulgard is in heaven. He has spent the whole day playi. With a new best friend who doesn’t seem to mind his stammering and odd ways.
Rhen has some things Ordered in for him and spends more of his time drunk and just sitting around.
As you enter The Sitting Duck, Jim is the only staff visible as it is late afternoon. He smiles and motions you over to the bar. Two men sit in their usual spot at the corner of the bar. Sharvaros Vade is one of them, the other you have not met.
Read your post incorrectly, Rhen. Rhen is in a room at the Goose 'n' Gander. Bulgard is at The Sitting Duck.
Jim pays special attention as Bulgard enters with a large wolf. The wolf is calm and follows behind Bulgard at one pace and slightly to his left. When he reaches the bar, the wolf lays down beside Bulgard's bar stool. Jim hands Bulgard a darkwood ale. "Fine looking animal you have there. Seems well behaved too. He is welcome as long as he stays that way."
Rhen practices his thieving skills just wandering around picking locks of they are locked and relocking them.
