Upon finishing his delivery of the news to the Sheriff, Xogar enters the are with Kyra and observes the exchange for the time being. He nods at Kyra when she sees him.

Once A'letta is done administering to Ameiko, Xogar approaches the pair. "Please, allow me." Reaching out, he touches Ameiko. "Healing light of Iomedae fill your soul."
Xogar comes up to Pick before he gets to the door. "Pick. Receive healing from the light of Iomedae." He reaches out to touch him. "This won't hurt at all."
Linky to Merciful Smite for the GM. Xogar moves in again to take down Tsuto. "You will desist!" he says as he swings.
Xogar swings again.
"Hold still foul creature!"
Xogar moves in and attacks the half-elf with his scimitar.
Xogar attempts to move silently as the group moves.
"Very well. Let us continue. There are investigations to be done and people to find." Xogar moves with Rhanloi.
"Agreed." Xogar says in agreeance with Rhanloi. "We will discover the wrongdoer here and bring them to justice!"
Xogar delays until the scene changes that he may assist.
If you are waiting for me to attack I don't know how much room there is with everyone else making an action. Unless I can successfully get around them that is. No ranged here, just melee.
Moving with the group, Xogar pulls his longsword, readies his shield and prepares for possible combat.
Xogar listens intently to A'letta. When she finishes he sighs. "You words ring true within me. Alright then. I pray that we enter for the right reasons." He follows her in.
"It seems that honesty doesn't suit any of you." He turns to Khalbar with a cold stare. "You missed my point entirely. It never was about the door." Xogar waves his hand. "Go. Do whatever you have a mind to. I already know mine."
Xogar observes the discrete entrance the others are making into the building. "I object to this. Breaking and entering to achieve a goal is not noble. If the rest of you want to trespass so be it. I will remain here. If you are caught I will not offer words in your favor nor will I lie for you. Honor is at stake here. Iomedae requires that I do no less. Xogar has a resolute look about him. He is not going to budge unless an extremely valid arguement is given to persuade him.
"This bears investigating. If she is in trouble we should help her in any capacity." Xogar says with some concern.
Xogar steps forward again. "You will release her. Now!" he says with an edge to his voice.
Xogar just stares at Rhanloi for a few seconds. Then he nods reluctantly and takes several steps back.
Instantly Xogar is on his feet and immediately moves over to the old codger. "As a matter of fact I do have say. Unhand her." he says in a commanding tone. Xogar blocks the door to prevent his departure.
Xogar returns to his seat and continues to drink his ale in silence.
"I am a trained professional, as I am sure the rest of these are." Xogar says coldly as he gestures to the others that are there. "Dangerous? You are in better company than you think. Don't mistake your loss for failure on our part. Could it have been YOUR failure to protect your own family that caused this? Go whine to the Sheriff if you have a complaint." Xogar is still deeply pained from the experience he had today. He obviously is not in the mood to trifle with the man to anyone that notices.
Xogar stands and makes his way over to the angry man. "There is no need to yell. What is the problem?"
Xogar takes the Sheriff aside and tells him what happened. "The woman's husband is dead. I found him after a goblin did its worst. There is nothing that can be done. I dispatched the goblin though." "I wish there was more I could do." he says wistfully.
Xogar stands there for what seems a long few seconds. He looks down for a moment and then looks up at her. "I'm sorry, he didn't make it. By the time I found him there was nothing that I could do. He was gone. I...." and trails off. No more words come. He stands there with an pained expression.
"Poor soul. He never had a chance with that goblin." Xogar says a prayer over the corpse of the man. "May the light of Iomedae show you the way to the afterlife." Then, with heavy heart, Xogar returns to the woman outside.
"Time to put you down you filthy wretch!" Xogar says as he strikes again.
Seeing that the goblin is wounded Xogar attacks again.
Xogar strikes again.
"Another fiend! Time to finish this once and for all."
Xogar grabs the man and pulls him out.
Xogar peers into the wardrobe to get a better look.
Xogar checks the wardrobe to see if anyone is inside. If not, he moves into the child's bedroom. He continues to be watchful.
Stepping forward Xogar moves into the master bedroom while looking about for anything unusual.
Readying his shield Xogar pulls his scimitar and cautiously makes his way into the home.
"Excuse me for a brief moment. I will return." If Ameiko is around he lets her know where he is going if any of the others wish to know what is going on. If she is not he asks that this info be relayed to her. Xogar returns to the woman. "Please show me at once. I will assist you."
Xogar had finished his breakfast and was mulling over his drink when he noticed a crying woman and her son came bursting through the door. He immediately rises and makes his way over to her. "Iomedae has surely blessed me with this opportunity today to help this woman." He looks down at the woman with a kind smile on his face. "How may I be of assistance?"
Xogar watches the exchange between Khalbar and the beautiful woman as she storms out of the tavern. "Some women cannot take rejection." he says to nobody in particular and with a chuckle.
Xogar stays in the tavern and ponders over his meal the events as they are unfolding today.
As he eats, Xogar mulls over the significance of the missing body. "What was the meaning of the priest's body not being there? Is he an undead? Or did someone just steal his body away? This gets more and more complicated by the hour."
Upon returning to the Dragon Xogar nods to each of those who he participated with in the defense of the attack. He orders a mild ale and something light to snack on.
"We should take this cloak to the priest and report the situation here. This is most disturbing. And the undead? What caused such abominations? This does not bode well. That and I loathe undead. You can't reason with a mindless 'thing'."
With a swiftness that belies his size, Xogar closes in and slices at one of the undead.
Xogar observes the entrance to the crypt. "Darkness is no enemy of mine. Sometimes I welcome it so that it may reveal things that I did not see before. Allow me take point here." If needed Xogar assists with opening the door. If not, he readies his scimitar and shield and moves inside. As his eyes adjust to the darkness he looks around for anything out of place.
"Very well. I should like to find out more about the cause of all this. Goblins are not usually known for their bravery or intelligence." Xogar follows Khalbar and Rhanloi to the crypt.
After enjoying the evening and the company of the patrons of the Rusty Dragon, Xogar comes down the next morning early to eat and reacquaint himself with the others. "Yes, I did have a good night. I am left troubled though with the incursion of those goblins. I am curious as to where they came from and what stirred them up to attack like this. I think an investigation is in order." Once he is done eating, Xogar excuses himself and heads to the temple to meditate and contemplate.
