With the Goblins pacified, Emmet watched as they continued their meal. As they scattered to their huts, the golem slowly turned back around and trudged its way to Albarath's doors. Once the tower let it back inside, Emmet took its position across from the entrance, waiting to be called on when needed.


In a practiced motion, Emmet brought its arm up to waist high, providing the step down little Andra needed from his shoulder before kneeling to place her at ground level. Slowly, it returned to its feet and turned to lumber down into the tower. The ponderous golem took the stairs slowly, it's heavy gait one of its few weaknesses.

Eventually, it came to the ground floor and pushed out the front doors. Emmet would definitely not arrive in time to assist before Bogdirt's threats were either heeded or followed through on. If the goblins refused to stop bickering by the time it arrived however, the booming voice would definitely get everyone's attention, "SIB NTAUS SIB TUA TSIS PUB DHAU IB PUAS KAUJ RUAM NTAWN TUS PEJ THUAM YOG TXWV TSIS PUB. TSIS TXHOB LOS YOG YUAV RAUG TXIAV TSIS."

Goblin:
Fighting within one hundred steps of the tower is forbidden. Stop or be stopped.

Intimidate: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (5) + 25 = 30 Includes +8 bonus due to two size categories bigger


The towering statue of clay stood motionless on the roof of the intimidating structure, acting as Andra's bench for the festivities down below. The hilt of the massive sword and long hammer strapped to its back acting as a makeshift backrest for its tiny passenger. It kept its glowing eyes on the thunderous display, determining that Magda's magic was far enough away to not cause the tower any damage.

Its attention only turned to the two mages once its bestowed moniker entered the conversation. Its head turned slowly to regard the two before proclaiming somewhat loudly, "I CANNOT SENSE SMELL. I DO NOT BREATHE." It had no strong opinion either way on the term 'acquiesce' other than finding it grammatically accurate.


You probably don't need an entirely invisible raiding party. One or two squads of 3-5 invisible goblins would probably be enough to hamstring a forming defense before the rest charge in.

Only because he has 14 HD, but yes, he can help students with their homework.

I'm not sure if Emmet even realizes it's sentient yet. it's so dedicated to its task of 'Protect the Tower' it's just doing that as effectively as possible, which means being smarter than the average Golem. it's usually on call if anyone needs 28 STR worth of manual labor and is relatively knowledgeable on arcane magic (14 ranks in both Arcana and Spellcraft). Of course the Tower's orders take precedence, but otherwise will follow the orders of any of the other minions that calls for him.

I imagine Andra calls on him the most.


Woo! Hopefully however many resources we get, there's enough to spare on a Belt of Mighty Hurling. Emmet would like to be as dangerous at as far a range as he can, and the STR to hit on thrown weapons will really help.
