+1 to lemmy's suggestion let them each run two PCs.

+2.

Because I'm... not Lemmy The Handsome. At all. No Sir. That I'm not. Ignore the red-lettered name indicating me to be an alias. I am... Uh... Someone else... Who is not Lemmy.

Bluff: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (10) - 2 = 8

After the priest of Sarenrae leaves, Desna takes it on herself to clean up the shrine, and offers some prayers before she leaves to return to the party.

That's one humble goddess! ;)

"These goblins attacked me and my friends, and it seems they have been attacking innocent folk too. I intend to put an end to that."- says Flynn as he sits by the fire - "I admit I don't know much about the circle of Eth, but I'd like to think guardians of the green are against the slaughter of innocent people in the name of an evil goddess, so I came to you, hoping that you could offer us assistance, or at least, some useful information."

"I'm indeed from a outside. My homeland is many miles from here. I'm in a journey to learn more about the natural balance of the world, so that I teach others how to live without disturbing it. I'd like to know more about this circle of Eth."

(Flynn waits for Avarthel to tell more about the circle of Eth before mentioning the goblins again)

Flynn takes a wooden stick sitting around and uses it to draw a crude representation of the holy symbol he found on the hobgoblin raider.

"About those hobgoblins... They seem to be part of a cult of some sort. Our party was attacked by a group led by a hobgoblin priest whose holy symbol consisted of multiple dragon heads of different colors... Can you tell us anything about them? Maybe the location of their hideout."

"I did take a look around town... But if I am to make inquiries about it, I might as well start by asking the opinion of a fellow guardian of the green." Flynn throws a few bread crumbs to nearby birds and continues to speak. "More importantly... Can you tell us about the recent goblinoid raids?"

Flynn greets the half-elf with a friendly smile. When he speaks, he does so in the secret language used by druids.

"Ah, you must be Avarthel, the local guardian of the wilds!"- at this point, Flynn then starts to speak in plain common, so that Kenchi can understand him. "It's always a pleasure to meet another warden. My name is Flynn, this is my friend, Kenchi. We're newcomers to this town, and would like to know more about it and its citizens."

Did anyone ever get around to telling Flynn about the significance of the hobgonlin's holy symbol?

BTW, I think Kenchi's missing 2 known languages.

Well, then... If that's the case, Flynn will look for Avarthel

I'm guessing it's safe to assume everyone is done with their errands

There is only one druid. Avarthel. He live just outside the twon in the west bank of the river in what twonfolks known as "the old ones". (see a bit of information in the last page)

Actually, that information is in this page. :P

@ Flynn

Should not it be a diplomacy check?

I dunno... I'm not trying to mingle with the town's citizen as much as I'm trying to observe them. It's more of a "What do I see?" than "What do they tell me?" (the Sense Motive check is there just to detect hostile intentions or deceit), but if you insist...

Diplomacy: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (16) - 1 = 15

To be clear, my idea was just to observe the daily activities and maybe overhear something interesting... e.g.: I wouldn't find out about Avarthel or personal opinions, but I'd see the overall state of affairs in the city and find out if there is some place where druids and the like gather together... You know, stuff you can find out by observing, rather than asking.

Flynn walks around town, trying to learn more about the town and it's citizens. He is particularly curious about how the locals see druids, fey and other nature related creatures.

He mostly observes his surroundings, without saying much other than the occasional greeting to whoever finds the time to say hello.

Flynn has always been curious about cities, seeing them as the humanoid equivalent of bee hives. He learned long time ago that most common folk would rather have a good relationship with nature, but they often forget or don't even know how to maintain balance, and it's Flynn's duty to enlighten them.

Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26

Flynn goes back to the inn at whatever time the party agreed to rendezvous before goin on their mission

Flynn speaks with a calm, almost somnolent voice as he adds yet another webbing to his pouch.

"I don't enjoy spilling blood... But it's preferable to seeing innocent people pay the price for my inaction... Besides, I could use the fresh air..."

He turns to the two new-comers and speaks.

"So... What do you guys know of these goblinoids? Anything that could help us to find and defeat them? The ones we fought seemed to be part of cult."

Just because I'm paranoid, I take 10 on both Perception (total +24) and Sense Motive (total +12) to notice anything odd or simply worthy of note in Norro and Soranna. In fact, it's easier to assume I constantly take 10 on those 2 skill checks (assuming I can take 10, of course).

Flynn sighs a bit. He seems somewhat disappointed with the perspective of sleeping indoors.

"Well... It probably doesn't have the comforting breeze, relaxing cricket sounds and beautiful night skies of the wild, but I suppose it's good enough for a night's rest... We should check if the locals know anything about the posse of goblins that attacked us."

The young druid carefully collects a few specimens of poison ivy and stores them in his spell-components pouch.

Good question... What are our business???

Oh, well, might as well use the universal language... Money.

"We are just travelers, looking for a place where to spend our gold on food, ale and a warm bed. There is no need for alarm"

So am I. I guess we kill the goblin, then...?

How does he do that without a religious symbol?

Still alive. And not in Brazil anymore. I wasn't home this weekend, though, so I forgot to post.

BTW, has anyone identified the goblin's religious symbol yet?

Intimidate: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (10) - 1 = 9

Do we get a bonus for... You know... Having him defeated, unarmed, entangled and with a blade to his throat?

"Personally, while I don't mind cutting throats, I'm not particularly inclined to do it either, and my friend here mentioned bringing you to see a court of justice, so maybe you have a chance... Besides, there are all sorts of different ways to die. Some of them are slower and more painful than others..."

"How cute! He think he's in position to haggle!"

BTW, can we use ropes or something to immobilize him? I'm guessing the Web spell won't last forever. And I still say we kill the hell hound.

Anyone with Kn(Religion) around? I know what symbol that is, but Flynn doesn't.

I can't see the image, Nicos.

Flynn handles the potions, scroll and holy symbol to Spica.

"I have this feeling you're not being frank... Would you be more inclined to talk with a blade on your throat?" says Flynn as he puts his scimitar close to the hobgoblin's neck.

Is there anything we should know about the region? e.g.: Are hobgoblins attacks common in this road? Do they usually have hell-hounds with them?

I usually use my alias for posting anything in the gameplay thread, including ooc posts... Unless it's completely irrelevant to the game.

Flynn carefully searches the hobgoblin for weapons, spell components pouches and anything that might be dangerous, valuable or simply interesting.

I take 10 on both Perception (total 24) and Sense Motive (total 22)

"So... Anything you wanna tell us? You can tell me... Or my friend with the greatsword and armor with the holy symbol of Gorum... Your choice."

"We should probably get rid of his devil dog first, though." says Flynn "Keeping it around could come back to bite us in the ass. Literally."

Whatever. I stab the nauseated hobgoblin. The auroch does the same. If the hob dies with my attack, the auroch instead attacks the Hell Hound.

Scimitar: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17 damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Auroch's Gore Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21 damage: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Can we have an updated map?

]I intended to summon it close to me, but... Where is Karla, how wounded is she and who is close to her?

I dunno... I suppose I use SNA III to summon a Dire Boar... I don't want to solo hell hounds.

EDIT: Oops. Nvm. Dire Boars are SNA IV (Although apparently they can be summoned with SNA III in King's Maker. Why?). Flynn summons an Auroch instead.

Not sure what I should do right now... I'm alone with a bunch of entangled/nauseated enemies, but I'm not sure they will stay entangled/nauseated for long... -.-'

And how far is Flynn from the A- the casting hobgoblin. and B- The unimpeded hellhound?

Fromthe hob is

The distance is 3 moves actions, but there is the stinking cloud in the midle so to reach them it would take 4 move actions.
For the hellhound is 2 moves action in distance.

So... The enemies who were next to me are all tangled in a web?

And how far is Flynn from the A- the casting hobgoblin. and B- The unimpeded hellhound?

I just noticed Auron made a cameo in this campaign... -.-'.

Well, after all this time, I better do something inspired...

Flynn stabs the hobgoblin swings his swords ineffectively.

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Well.. My original plan was stealing the urn ad replacing it with a forgery... But i have no idea how to do that... So I suppose we can simply hide a few vials Alchemist's Fire near some of Gaurten's most flammable valuables... ^^

By the way you can totally see the spellcaster. Is the B in the map.

What??!! How did I miss that?

Anyway... There is not much for me to do... Since Spica is free and protected by her elementals, Flynn simply moves (carefully avoiding a route that would provoke an AoO from the Hobgoblin who didn't fall and) to the position 1 square up-right from Kenchi. If necessary, he'll go for Spica's aid next turn.

Flynn once again opens the earth under his enemies' feet. (i.e.: I cast Create Pit (Reflex 15) on the 2 Hobgoblins closest to Flynn. The pit is placed so that it's top-left corner appears under the Hobgoblin to the left)

Concentration Check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

I'd like to know if they fall before I decide what to do with my move action.

The young druid looks around, trying to detect any enemy spell casters around.

Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25

It depends. For example might need to know if you get blinded in order to see if the following attack is a sneak attack or not

In that case you can roll SA damage and then I simply apply it (or not, if I make the save) after I roll (I intend to keep my current HP updated).

Anyway... I only used an immediate action in this round,so I'll wait 'til Spica does her thing before I act.

By Calistria's Ass! I completely forgot, but I have 2 freaking castings of Liberating Command prepared!!! oO

(As an immediate action) Flynn casts Liberating Command on Spica. (Spica can immediately make an Escape Artist check with a +10 bonus)

Sorry, Spica... I should have done this earlier! My bad... :(

So... Should I help Kenchi or Spica? One is surrounded... The other is being grappled by a motherf#$~ing crocodile!

EDIT: By all Gods, Spica! Your elementals are making us look bad!

What about my Hobgoblin-slaying Critical Hit? :)

I keep thinking I already acted because I mistake my last turn for the current one.... :P

Scimitar: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
Crit Confirmation: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
2d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 1) + 8 = 15

(Because of course I get a crit against an opponent with half a hit point) -.-'

Flynn decapitates the Hobgoblin with his scimitar, then turns around and moves southwest to flank the Hobgoblin currently facing Kenchi.

You mediated on it? Dude... You're taking this game to seriously! ^^

A Crocodile?! WTF?!

Dafuq?! I thought I had already acted on this round. oO

Flynn moves a little bit to flank the Hobgobling engaged in combat with one of Spica's elementals, hoping to remove one of the enemies from combat. (if the Hob is already dead, Flynn instead attacks the hound closest to him).

Scimitar: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 [ooc](inclunding flank)
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Gotta ask, though... Where did the new guys come from? How come we didn't see them coming?

Not sure a wand of Restoration would come up enough to really be worth the money. If someone needs that, I'll prepare some of it the next day.

Well... It is a 1st level wand (thank you, Paladins everywhere!) and with 50 charges we can afford to buy one and forget about it 'til it's necessary. It costs less than 200gp per character and could save our lives... (or at least a few 2nd level spell slots ^^)

EDIT: I meant Lesser Restorarion... The normal version of Restoration is too expensive to be viable as an wand.

What's a happy stick? Wand of cure? I have one of those, and I "am" one of those. I would appreciate some contribution to it, though. ;)

Yup. Wand of CLW. Didn't notice you had one... Well, next one is on me, then. :). We should also buy a wand of Lesser Restoration, just in case...

(Thank Iomedae for cell phone posting! :D)

"Tsc... I grow tired of this battle... Let's finish this, okay?" says Flynn, as he moves towards the nearest Hobgoblin (The one who took 6hp damage, according to the map) and makes an slashes at his opponent with his scimitar.

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25 (Argh... So close... Almost a crit! ><' )
1d6 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

(BTW, we should remember to buy a happy-stick when we reach the next settlement)

Oh, right! Our turn again... My bad.

"They have us surrounded... The poor bastards..."

Flynn raises his hand and points at the injured Hobgoblin. A green blob appears in front of his fist then flies towards his target (This ability won't be useful for long, so I might as well use it now)

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Acid Dart: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Of course the goblin rolled a 15... -.-'

Well, no matter, he missed all his attacks against me, and he has to make another save (with a +2 bonus) since he ended his turn adjacent to the pit
