I opted for unchained barbarian invulnerable rager. Need to tweak skills and review character sheet for details. Torgar lost his family from a raid. This has given him a very strong desire to protect those around him. He is a bit older than the standard adventurer being a farmer beforehand. It is quite likely that Torgar’s passion and willingness to throw himself into harm’s way for those around him would catch the notice of someone looking to protect themselves or to protect a group.

Torgar lays into the nearest dragon man, "Die you scaly abominations!" he roars as he swings with all his might. great axe, furious focus, rage: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 2 = 14

Init: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 Torgar's attack was a surprise round? So we are now in regular combat? Are you going to give us a turn order? Is it by individual or Us v Them?

"Really?" Torgar bellows when he hears their discussion. "Come and take it then!" he roars and charges. Great Axe, charge, furious focus, rage: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 9 + 2 + 2 = 26

Without others commenting, Torgar stalks off toward them to see who they are and what they are doing. This is silly but I can't help but see Torgar with a great axe even though I originally went with a great sword. Do you mind if I change that? Combat wise the axe is a bit weaker but seems more thematic to me.

[b]"We can live off the land and we have a few trail rats. I know some wanted to get supplies at Haven but it's a burned out husk and if stop there, we'll find no end of need to deal with. This staff may have some role to play in the greater scheme of things. Let's ride this pony till it breaks and then reevaluate where we are."[b] Torgar suggests as he continues to walk away.

”Well, do we go into Solace or just redirect to Xak Tsaroth? I know you want to get info but could you not use your ball to discuss pertinent information as we continue onto Xak Tsaroth. Perhaps the mystery of the staff will give us something useful in this burgeoning conflict.”

”This is a lot bigger than it first appeared. We went from smashing some goblins and ogres to see why the staff needed to go to a dead city and now we are faced with an invasion by the armies of the dragon queen. It seems insane we didn’t hear anything about the movements if armies. We need more information. We may need to capture the next one of these scaly boys we run across.”

"Yep, let's get moving." Torgar says to Reuben's comment in the morning. The barbarian has already rolled up his bedroll and is prepared to depart. Later... "Hopefully we can keep you folks alive and destroy at least a small portion of evil in this world." Torgar says flatly.

As he eats Torgar says, Aaggh obviously feels at home and crashed. I trust our hostess but if the staff is as special as events would have it, evil may find a way to find us even here. I suggest a watch. I prefer to rise early and will take last watch. Anyone else interested in maintaining a watch?

"I would like to thank you for your hospitality Mistress of the Wood but I'm sure this is uncommon. Do you need assistance or is there some other reason you have honored us with your presence?" Torgar asks.

And? We said we were following the deer, so we follow the deer to a clearing where we meet the master of the wood, find an old fort, realize we are trapped. Now we give actions, reactions, whatever. The ghosts move up and instead of just following you they begin to consume Torgar, ok, time for the players to give actions, reactions, whatever. The narration needs to have some hook that asks or impels the characters to do something. As it is we are just trolloping along in the woods with nothing to require an action other than trolloping through the woods. Savvy?

"I appreciate the gesture Agghh but I think we should follow Reuben on this one. Just be ready." Torgar says as he gestures for Agghh to keep going and trudges forward himself.

Torgar grits his teeth and with a huge intake of breath he seems to calm himself a bit, "Aug! Let them flee. We need to stick with the others." Torgar calls out after his fellow dwarf.

Torgar's dander is up and he just keeps on slashing. "You nasty, monstrous, man-killers. I won't rest until the lot of you are dead and rotting!" Atk, furious focus, rage: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 2 = 25

Torgar strides toward the goblins. Once he gets within charge range he roars as he rages and closes the distance. As he rolls into the goblin group he lays into the closest. swd, rage, chg: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 + 2 + 2 = 14

Torgar sets his grim face in the direction Reuben points and begins to walk. "Let's take a walk boys. Crush em, gut em, and kill em." He says to the others as he moves out. Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

While on watch Torgar gets distracted by a beetle with an iridescent shell and and a big horn like protrusion. He follows it about the camp and moves it with a stick thinking surely no one is going to bother them on an evening like this. Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 |
