Although he remianed silent throught the -briefing- if one wishes to call it that, there was a bit of increased brightness in his eyes, and a slight grin behind his well kept beard at the words 'master brewer' in the note. The rest, well that was somewhat up his alley too. As far as assignments go, this was looking like it had potential to be a good one.
Chalmer's strike was enough to bring low the one wolf
Green goes to bite Talion
Red goes to bite Hooch
and the gobos go back to being malicious and violent little beasties
The curse settles in on blue as well. Blue then snaps at the first goblin that tried to climb on his back
Red lunges out for Pickle
And Green snaps his jaws at Aurax in response to his own injury
The Goblins begin to take exception of their current situation, and express their dislike for having those ever so sharp teeth turned in their direction. Nor, it seems, do they recognize their exceptional good fortune at the wolves misfortune curse Blonoze scrambled to his feet avoiding the bite directed his way
and struck the wolf with his stolen sword, striking a telling, but not incapacitating blow
Durkly attempts to follow suit with the same, with less luck
As does Gomgurt.
Hooch, also lept to his feet, again drawing a wolf bite, and struck back
while the last two goblins tried to get some distance to bring their bows to use.
Slipping and falling the wolf becomes an easy target for Aurax's bite.
Blonoze rushed forward. Screaming something about 'freedom' and made a jump for the back of blue. Getting snapped at for his troubles, and ending up in the snow.
The other Goblins seemed to think this looked like what amounts to a 'good idea' in the minds of goblins. So they all scrambled for the back of one of the wolves. Of course without any success as thes wolves were too young to carry a rider, even if they were inclined to put up with a screaming goblin on their back. As it was they all ended up prone in the snow.
As everyone was busy with the task of breaking camp, and the goblins were busy trying to sneak something to eat, again. Zot and Evanora make note of a couple forms moving in across the snow. A trio of Canid forms, small, a little lean from hunger and youth, the encircle the camp and let forth a howl.... Surprise Round. Wolves, then Zot and Evanora GM:

Init foes

Morning came with a considerable drop in the temperature, and a dazzling white blanket of unblemished snow burying everything under a couple inches of fresh snowfall, but already it seemed to be breaking up with patches of blue showing among the billowing grey clouds that marked the trailing edge of the last nights storm. As everyone gets out and starts breaking camp,I would like some perception checks please
A snowbloom. A pale blue flower that only blossoms in snowstorms and when plucked immediately transforms into a delicate, non magical crystal. Speculated by many as a sign of the land itself fighting back against Baba Yaga's power and control. Sacred in the land of the Linnorm Kings, possesion in Irisen is illegal. Making them somewhat valuable as rare collectibles, and alchemical reagents.
the flower is a pale blue, shaped similar to that of a daffodil, except for it's colour. Zot's never used one in his cooking, of that he is certain. knowledge arcana or knowledge local
Even though the snow was blanketing the ground, Zot's eyes fall on the strangest thing a single flower seems to have risen up through the snow and blossomed. In spite of the cold and dark.
Camp settled in after a bit of work, and even, eventually, the goblins got involved. Mostly with the fire of course, and it took a bit of effort to keep them from tossing every bit of wood, and anything else not currently being observed and potentially flammable on. Especially as the temperature steadily dropped and the heavy, wet flakes of snow began to come down in earnest. The ground becoming a more uniform blanket of white, loosing it's distinct features as the light began to fade. I would like a perception check from anyone venturing out during the storm, for any reason, including taking watch please
Could I get some diplomacy on the goblins please or intimidate
Setting up camp itself began easy, save for the goblins, who seem to be growing more than a little restless, and somewhat less inclined to be helpful. Instead of providing any practical assistance they began messing about, tossing jeers and insults towards whomever seemed to be doing the most work, or what they considered the stupidest job at the time. All while eyeing up the supplies and such with a look of gluttonous lust and desire. All the while the wind could be heard making you all glad you where in a sheltered valley, and the snow kept falling
After some quick looking around, a relatively sheltered little valley was located, where the party could set up camp, as the first fat, wet flakes of snow begin to fall out of the ever darkening sky.
Can I get another Survival check, with aid if anyone can provide it?
As the day progresses Chalmers is the first to notice that the sky behind you is darkening to a looming grey, a certain bite to the air indicating that the weather is soon about to take a turn, and certainly not for the better.
right potion of bulls strength. Moving right along...
Anyone want to make a survival check?
Among the Goblins themselves, Evanora's words and promise raised a bit of a ruckus, as the entire lot of them seem inclined to get the powerful headdress for themselves.
The shaman does have a potion that detects as magic, as well as a couple vials, a wooden holy symbol, a pouch of 25 gold coins and the dropped dagger and crossbow (both small) and of course a headdress that really only a goblin would love Any other searching will require perception checks Down below the Goblins are all chattering up a storm about the great battle, a couple already telling lies about how heroic they were
And with that it goes down like a marionette with it's strings cut. Not so much as a twitch of movement.
The shaman, seemingly enraged that you're all still there makes a slash at Aurax for hurting him
Down below your companions are making a great deal of excited noise, and there are intermittent sounds of scuffling and arguing. Up on the tower top, the shaman slashes towards Chalmers' face as he ascends the ladder with her dagger.
so that will be a grand total of 1 point of non-lethal. Rub some dirt in it
for simplicity, yeah, let's say you are in melee range for next turn. If it makes it to a next turn.
poor Shaman all alone now.
Goblin 2. Quite unaware of the loss of all his companions, fights on with a manic glee that only a Goblin, or a lunatic could muster. Swinging out at Aurax
While the shaman tries to defensively cast a spell
And with a pyromaniac glee, washes a gout of fire over the trio of foes on the tower top. (dc 12 reflex)
I think I just need a turn from Talion now
Chalmers would have run into the other goblin before he got to the ladder
The torch, and the rubbish around it that made up the beacon are quickly doused, and while the fire may not be totally out, it's not likely to do much in the next couple of minutes anyway While that is going on, it appears your erstwhile companions, are quite eager to loot the dead, the dying, and perhaps anything else that is not nailed down.
Aurax gives Goblin 2 a good hard bite Next to him, the whisps of smoke from the beacon are begining to gain in strength, but the wind up at the top of the tower is still blowing most of it away. For now. The Shaman, being presented with another spellcaster, yelled out in goblin
And then tossed a bottle of alchemist fire at Evanora
Landing on her right and splashing for a single point of fire
Unlucky Goblin is feeling a little bit more unlucky right now
Gobo2 takes a swipe at Aurax with his dogslicer
All while saying something indecipherable but rude sounding about the Shaman seeming to leave. Goblin 5 comes rushing out of the south tower snapping a shot at Zot
Shaman shoots at Aurax with crossbow
After shooting at Aurax, the shaman moves over to the ladder Gobo 5 hurries down the ladder himself
Gobo 4 fires a snap shot at the dragon
that's going to be a miss
Startled and bespelled Goblin in the tower swings his dogslicer at Chalmers
managing to hit in spite of his misfortune
the Shaman completes what he is doing and tosses a lit torch into the pot on the roof
Aurax is up
The Goblins have obviously been lairing in here, the wooden stair that ran up the interior of the tower, along with what would have been a middle floor have long since rotted away, replaced only by crude, but solid enough seeming ladder leading to a currently open wooden hatch at the top. Chalmers in the process of circling around and in, found himself next to a Goblin, or it found itself next to Chalmers.
