Gnomey stares down the mounted goblin and lets out a surprising ferocious howl. Demoralize attempt 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
The wolf lets out a accompanying howl and eyes the goblins closely, waiting for them to approach.
Spyro’s wounds certainly seem to have improved but have not completely gone away. Now that the final goblin is down his fatigue takes over and Spyro drops to the ground. ”I don’t think I’ll be much help against more Goblins” he mutters from where he lays exhausted. I also don’t think I’ll stand a chance in Rappan Athuk. Maybe this isn’t the life for me Spyro falls asleep despite all the chaos that continues around town
Honestly kinda assumed Ashalla would have finished this. New character does even less damage - literally doesn’t have a weapon or attack spells. I guess maybe the wolf that comes along might have better luck? If this is how things go might have to even consider a different third approach haha. Fingers crossed we will get him this time.
Spyro heads up the stairs to the east and draws another chakram from his belt. Once he gets an angle around the cart he throws it at the goblin. with 40ft movement speed I’m fairly certain I can get to a spot that the cart no longer provides cover and also in 30ft range of the chakram Attack 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12
Spyro allows the great cub to drop from his hands. He prods a little closer and takes a chakram from his belt. Still requiring visible effort he flings the chakram at the last goblin. Attack 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Unless Ashalla already knocked out the goblin, in which case Spyro just drops the club and drops to his knees in his fatigue
So obviously the rolling has been terrible but I have been considering a different character that might work better for this two man team. The balanced barbarian just doesn’t seem to function that well since it doesn’t kill things fast enough and the rage wearing out mid battle is pretty awful. Basically all I seem to be adding is a really high HP. Frankly the kineticist is doing solid damage so a mediocre barbarian doesn’t really add much variety to the group. Anyway my alternative idea is an Oracle that would be a tank/healer. It would literally do zero damage but would come with an animal companion. We would still need to hire other helpers I’m sure but seems like it would work better as a pair to Adams character that can be a consistent damage dealer. Thoughts?
Great club out, Spyro sees the goblin induced chaos and charges into the fray. Their large heads make such great targets Didnt look like I would make it this round even with 40ft movement but I head toward the nearest Goblin. Whenever I do get in range I attack with great club Attack 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Spyro’s eyes light up at the mention of Rappan Athuk. ”Wait, you know about Rappan Athuk? How do you know about that place? I guess I should clarify. I don’t actually know all that much myself but I have been trying to learn more. You see, I have to explore it. Not that I really understand why, but I was pulled to this place. All I know is it might involve dragons.”
Noticing Ashalla renter the bar, Spyro goes to join her at her table. ”Couldn’t help but notice you trying to avoid everyone. Figured that was a good sign you needed another one of these.” Spyro slides Ashalla another ale. ”What are you working on that is so important to distract from tonight’s festivities?”
Spyro leaves the tavern shortly after Ashalla and walks around town for a while to enjoy the weather. When evening hits he makes his way back to the White Deer for another round. Not really doing anything in particular, just enjoying the day. Will casually listen in on things at the tavern and would get more interested if anyone mentions Rappan Athuk but not specifically asking about it myself.
”That’s a rather dire way to start off this morning. However that was a pretty fancy trick you pulled off to go with your name that’s not going to be yours much longer. Did you sell your name along with your good spirits? The ale can only fill such a hole so much, but I bet Garridan will keep trying.” Not exactly how I expected the day to start, but I was hoping for interesting.
"That it is. It feels like I have been in Sandpoint for quite a while but really its only a few months. I know the new cathedral is the big ticket item this year, but what is usually celebrated each year? Think there will be a lot of outsiders coming in for the event? And I guess if I am enjoying myself I'll take an ale when you got a free second."
Spyro steps out into the beautiful morning. Hmmm, probably should be looking for work but hard to pass up the festivities today. Maybe I can learn something interesting from all the excited people around. Spyro heads out toward the newly finished cathedral, although rather than going to the building itself he angles to the nearest tavern. |
