Offenclopf, never one to pass up free food, and aware of Ghir's fast approaching appetite shoves the proffered sweet into his mouth and washes it down with the proffered potion. Healying: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4) + 3 = 10 With a noise somewhere between a cough, a sneeze and a belch, Offenclopf literally bounces with vigour. Grabbing his 'helm' in one hand and the left over potions in the other... "Besest juice ever! What others do... also you don't take Offenclopf's stuff!" Offenclopf peers at whatever sun there is through each potion in turn
Pocketing the Potion of healyness in a 'sneaky' (obvious) manner, Offenclopf tosses the other Potion back to the Captain "makes Gobbo tough as big owly-bear, Offenclopf no need for tough, Offenclopf sneaky" spotting the old wooden ship Offenclopf's eyes sparkle and he winds his arms readying to set fire to it...
Still feeling the worse for the last nights revelry, burping up the taste of bull slug, Offenclopf follows behind the captain, humming his song and setting fire to the occasional bit of wood/tree as they pass. When if we reach the 'source' he looks round in wonder... Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 Looking from giant spider to carpet of dead spiders and back again, faster and faster until he falls over Offenclopf let's out a wail from flat on his back "Lotslets lays lotseggs, each eggs is lotslegs, lotseggs, lotslegs...lotseggs... lotslegs" Offenclopf bounces to his feet "we should get outs here, morelegs means more legs you know!"
Shocked at the sudden stinging swarm that engulfs his legs, offenclopf stumbles away 5 foot step waving his arms furiously as flames gather round him Gather powerthen, pointing a wavering finger at the swarm, he swears loudly as a roaring flame complete with black smokerolls towards the tiny spiders. To Hit (vs Touch): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20
Burning fire blast does full damage to swarms, +1d6 burning damage per round until extinguished
Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 I'm still fairly new to pbp myself but what's worked pretty well so far is the GM rolling initiative for all as soon as a fight kicks off, then everyone acts in blocks. Those before the baddies, then the baddies, those after the baddies. It needs a little GM finessing if the players do things that need to be sequential Ie. Aid another and the like, and you may like to combine initiatives for your bad guys so they all act together. But keeps things flowing nicely in my experience. Whatever way we roll, I'm after the many-legsies.
The next morning Offenclopf wakes up hanging by one ancle from a tall pole, he vaguely remembered some of the last nights events culminating in a strange drunken request... "hoist me like a longshanks flag! Me be big hero, waving for all to see... ... Reaching up and burning through the crude knots that held his foot, Offenclopf carefully releases himself... With a thud he hits the ground face first, staying upright for a second then crumpling into a messy heap. Scooping himself up he trotts of to find some hair of the dog. (literally) ... Arriving at the moot house with others Offenclopf quickly grabs the map as it is held out, turning it round and upside down several times until the edges start to smolder and a ploom of smoke rises from it. Offenclopf shuvs it into Sara's already full arms. "Keep map with fireworks, safe from fire there..." He trails off, eyes bulging more than normal, if that's possible, as he spots Sara's pistol. "you got faraway-point-and-dead-stick. You magical-mistical gobbo!"
Fortitude: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 Offenclopf takes the rusty blade with a bow and, wobbling forward, falls to his knees and vomits up a slimey lumpy mess that splashes over Slorb. After a couple of seconds spent heaving and wretching he gets to his feet, smearing the vile slug remnant across his face with the back of his grubby hand. "thankee for shiny sticker Slorb, Offenclopf real champ now!" Stuffing the dogslicer into his sack, Offenclopf bounds off to find some gobbo to boast at Not loser no more, not no more, hero now. Got to go find loser to push in mud...
As a rusty longshanks dagger gives Offenclopf a new ear piercing he realises he's going to need both hands to pull this off. Looking down at the slime covering him he shoves the last two slugs into his mouth and starts chewing furiously... Fortitude DC20: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25 Swallowing the discusting creatures down, he carefully makes his way from the rusting contraption. As he escapes a cacophonous belch slips from his mouth. "Offenclopf big hero gobbo now! slug master, that me!"
Rolls:
Escape Artist DC15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13
Fortitude DC10: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 Escape Artist DC15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 Fortitude DC10: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 Escape Artist DC15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21 Fortitude DC10: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 Escape Artist DC15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 So that's two successful escape artist and three fortitude before I got two failures... How many of my limbs do I loose...
Offenclopfs snarly grin hasn't left his face since he was told about the firework expedition. He begins to sing as he skips from the moot house... little fire not for me,
Offenclopf punctuates this last line with a plume of fire sent skywards fire blast from his outstretched palm. Then scampers off round the camp, setting fire to bits of unattended firewood as he goes. basic pyrokinesis
Offenclopf mutters to himself "'remember who am chief' mler blar bloo! Sllorb shud 'member who am chief. Not Slorb, for sure. Maybe Chief be big happy if Slorb burn mysteriously in huge massive firey fire!" Offenclopf sits cross legged, cross armed, cross faced where he is directed, like a 4 year old who's just been told off by the teacher.
why oh why did I not make a pirate gobbo?! For shame... Maybe others not laugh... maybe Offenclopf finally have friends... Offenclopf slowly comes forwards "Don't do making fire, friend. AM fire!" With that Offenclopf gathers power. Everything begins to heat up within 20ft of Offenclopf, the heat becomes flame as it spirals towards Offenclopf seeming to flow into his torso, then with a loud bang the room returns to normal, but Offenclopf's eyes flicker like fire for a few seconds... Offenclopf's grin returns as he looks around to see who is impressed with his display...
Offenclopf loiters in the shadow wreathed corner, humming to himself and clicking his grubby, rubbery fingers. With every click a little flame ignites on the end of his thumb, burning dirty and sooty, and then disappears. A crazed smile crosses his face. This all go up nice, maybe Offenclopf be king gobbo if all burns? His globular eyes flick to the other goblins in the room, and the smile turns into a grimace, all teeth with tongue hanging out No! Offenclopf always last, always looses, always smallest, other gobbos only here to laugh at Offenclopf! wait to hear what big gobbo have to say, might be good for Offenclopf... then maybe burn all the laughers...
