Dnd tradition. Rogues and fighters start off pretty far ahead, at early level sneak attack is big damage

Impressive Swordplay my friend, Eko compliments with what is probably a frog smile. Its hard to tell.


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

if you need rest as well, we can send Bubbles Forward. at the moment she is guarding the rear


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Eko will move up t0 see the gobbo and cast his first spell, Faerie fire. illuminating the creature with a bright white light. 5 foot burst right behind the goblin for max efficiency

faerie fire


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Eko speaks in a low whisper, Ambush, how can we turn the tables?


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

NOT A PROBLEM, WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN TIME TO PLAN THE DEFEAT OF OUR ENEMIES!


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Eko still stealthed wanders in, crossbow in hand, looking for the goblins

perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Bubbles stays back with the other less stealthy members, Eko however stealth's forward with his crossbow

stealth: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

sorry, will post soon, work has been busy


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Very True! However if one can exploit a foe's weaknesses to assure victory then it makes the process far easier and more worth while Eko calls out in his usual boisterous heroic sounding voice, this seems to be his default tone of speech.


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

We know what to expect now...Goblins for now anyway. What do we know about the little monsters?


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

I have not learned magical healing, although i can start trying to in the future Eko says staying alert


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Ejo begins trying to make the room into a makeshift base of operations to rest. Moving around rubble and checking entrances and exits to see if there are any more enemies lurking about

Yeah, the hippo definitely starts out entirely focused on defense, but their strength balloons quite a bit once you're a few levels in. I think with the amount of hits Bubbles can soak up she'll be contributing plenty in the early levels.

Oh, also, I think her bite is 1d8, not 2d6.

Normally yes, but Bubbles has Improved Natural Attack, nvm your right i just looked and bab plus 4 required...dammit thats frustrating

im having a heck of a time actually figuring out what to do with a feat for her.

strength is too low for power attack

con is too low improved natural armor

but the big cat get Str 13, Dex 17, Con 13, Int 2, Wis 15, Cha 10 right away. ps i'm just venting about how unbalanced Ac's are.

Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Eko shoots a goblin with his light crossbow and then steps behind Bubbles, urging the Hippo to attack the same goblin

Crossbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Bubbles bites: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 1) = 7


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Bubbles will take the diagonal odd path lumbering into the room, Eko will as well, though being as small as he is isnt quite lumbering


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

posting from a mobile atm. Will do so when i get home from work


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Perhaps we should turn this entry way into a... Safe space, clear out some of the rubble and secure the area ? Also it does seem to be a sort of back door, i doubt we were intended to come in this way


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Hippos do actually live in the water, they're so dense that they can sink and run on the bottom . Bubbles is quite sweet, just a bit damp but you get used to that. Eko digs through his satchel and feeds bubbles a piece of fruit, before placing a hand on his blade.


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Unfortunately i cannot! I can however see in the dark, and i'm fair at stealth, So if our companions can keep an eye on bubbles, i can join you as a.. seeing eye frog Eko hops off Bubbles, whose ears wiggle and she makes a small hippo noise.


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

i thought we were waiting for the go ahead before heading in as our scout was going scouting for lack of better term

Eko will follow if the group goes in


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Go forth and check, be careful friend. If you see anyone or anything, come back Eko calls


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

Eko looks at Khathi, Oh no, thank you. If i were to stay in one place how could i help all those in need? Eko follows looking around carefully. As if on Patrol

Eko is looking for two things any Entrances and a Large enough hill to make a base camp on with which to watch the Spire safely and have a place as a middle point


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

My name is Eko, I am from Garund. it is Irrelevant now, Bubbles and i cannot return. He says from atop his mighty steed, not with his seemingly usual brand of loud speech.


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

I simply mean that there must have been other expeditions in to the area before us, as such others could stored information which in turn could help in establishing a base camp. Failure in any way is not all that bad, so long as it is learned from. Eko who is normally quiet loud, speaks in a normal person tone, explaining his thought on the matter in a seeming switch of personality.


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

i will endeavor to resolve this situation Post haste ! Eko speaks with vigor and salutes, I believe we should scout the tower and gather any possible information!


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

I am Eko! Knight of the vast swamps. Unfortunately my Companion Bubbles can not join us in here, but i am here on behalf of the High Mother to assist with the Undead situation and whatever other physical dangers the tower may pose! Eko stands, Arm across his chest, speaking in a clear boisterous tone, annoucing himself clearly before politely sitting down


Male Grippli Nature fang Druid

So, to be upfront with everyone. The plan for Eko and Bubbles is in fact a couple levels of Mammoth rider eventually. Because everyone loves Dinosaur sized Hippo's Right?

Second, Bubbles will be spec'd out as a Tank and Bite focused Damage. With Eko being focused on Control type spells, So we got defense covered. Also Secondary Melee with Nature fang.

Eko Personality wise is...the Noble, friendly Prince charming type... Except a frog, So you know. Limits. He generally will try to get along with and help others out, it's just who he is. Eko is...Kind of a naive idiot who wants to see the good in everyone... Do with that information what you will..

As for where Eko is? likely staying, if in the Temple, he will insist on working off any debts or the cost of supporting him.

i'm open to questions if anyone wants to know specific Mechanics or background stuff.

Well, there's also Bubbles The Wonder Hippo. 17 AC and 17 HP is fairly tanky.

thats Bubbles to start, just wait...
