Alouryn AC: 16/14/13 HP: 14/14 (Vaughn) 
Sunday November 24th, 2013 5:37:45 PM

Realising trying to be stealthy isn't going to help her, Alouryn runs to square E8 hoping to find some end to the trail soon.

As soon as the Goblin Sentinel is spotted, Shel tries with succes to remain hidden. But just as she suggests to stealthy follow the path between the thorny briars Faoil barks... so Hazel spurs Flaoil and the dynamic duo brave the hedge hoping to pop out on the other side...

Murphy hopes to keep everyone on the trail vanish as he sees Hazel and Flaoil dissapear in the thorns...still he tries to fool the Sentry by acting like a Goblin himself... dispite a great impersonation of a Goblin that would mislead many, the Sentinel senses something's wrong... he begins to move towards the cave readying his bow...

Even though Alouryn and Adomorn hurry down the trail they manage to do so wihout the sentinel perceiving them.

Pipa could not be persuaded by Murphy to follow him down the trail so Eral helps him out. Like Edric, who suggested to stay on the trail and remain sneaky, they too run down the track together...

But Hazel's the only one brave (foolish?) enough to breaking through to the clearing behind the briars... for a split second he stands eye in eye with the Goblin Sentinel... not wasting time he immediatly launches a couple of sling stones. Both fly wide...

The goblin raises his bow and sends an arrow towards Hazel... (hits AC 20, damage 1hp)

Then the Sentinel shouts ans screams... probably trying to attract the attention of his friends...

OOC: from looking at the map, it seems that it'll be at least two more rounds of running before those of us on the path and get to a point we can engage the goblin(s). So Shel will be running as fast as she can down the cleared path this round.

Hazel is unable to attack himself, as guiding Faoil on the charge takes all his attention. But he prepares to have an attack of opportunity if the Goblin tries to get past him.

It's time to take care of things. Murphy summons a small air elemental, and sends it to attack the goblin sentry. Then he takes a plunge into the brambles, following the path that Faoil and Hazel broke through the hedge as quickly as he can.

The swirling figure of air shoots forth over the top of the brambles, and comes down to slam (hit AC 22) against the screaming sentry for 3 hp damage, and shoots away from the goblin, preparing for a return strike (next round).

As Hazel did not take the sack of caltrops, Murphy has it with him.

DM Steven 
Monday November 25th, 2013 5:35:18 PM

With Hazel engaging the Goblin sentinel on his own, Shel, Eral, Adomorn and Alouryn race down the path South... Alouryn wonders if there will ever come an end to it... Eral drags Pipa behind him ans checks to see where Murphy and Edric are...

Those two try to benefit from taking the same path through the thorns...once they get on the other side they see how Hazel and Flaoil charge into the Goblin Sentinel without succes...
They can also see how Murphy's air elemental succesfully kicks the sentinel in the behind...

With Hazel and the Air elemental attacking him, the sentinel attempts to get to the Goblin lair... he makes a 5 ft step to R15 (avoiding AoO unless either Hazel, Faoil or the Air Elemental have reach) and the he hurries towards the lair entrance...

Hazel notices another goblin coming out of the lair... he looks a little drowsy and obviously wonders what the noise is all about... his eyes open a little further when he sees the dog riding halfling and an elemental engaged with the guars... he shouts something over his shoulder but doesn't come nearer...

Murphy runs flat out to about V15, leaving the air elemental to continue its work.

The air elemental swoops from behind the fleeing goblin, but misses it, passing just over the sentry's right shoulder and continuing well beyond to about AJ 11. It does not yet notice the second goblin (perception 8), but Murphy does (perception 20).

Shel, Adomorn, Alouryn and Eral who drags Pipa behind, contine to race down the track. They all run at full speed (2 move actions at quadrupple speed)...
By the time they come round the bramble corner, they an see Murphy's Air elemental making a flyby at the escaping sentinel.
Hazel ald Faoil once again charge at the Goblin but they fail to get through the sentinel's armor... the goblinoid shouts in anger and fear... but he can see his kin springing forth from the Goblin Lair... Murphy and Edric too race towards the Goblin.

With his comrades on their way to help, the Goblin sentinel turns around and drops his bow and unsheateqs his blade ( move action provoking AoO !)... but before he is able to wield it he is tripped by Faoil! He falls prone on the ground... Leaving his bow on the ground he tries to stand provoking yet another AoO! Once he stands, he raises the blade and brings it crushing down on Hazel... the angle is precisely chosen but it's not a confirmed critical hit. Hit AC 22 (nat 20) hazel takes 3Hp damage.

From the lair a couple of Goblin come observing what the noise is all about. As soon as they see what goes on two of them ready their short bow and send nother 2 arrows - one at Hazel, the other towards the air elemental...
At Hazel : hits AC 11
At elemental : Hits AC10

OOC: DM, can shel see the goblin archers well enough to target a Sleep spell at them? If so that's, her plan after moving forward 20'. If not, I'll make another post and adjust.

DM Steven : the Goblins coming from the lair are approx 150ft away so that makes it a DC15 perception check to have a visual on them

Shel moves forward, and begins casting her Sleep spell, hoping to incapacitate the archers and help the group that way.

DC 16 Will save to resist.

Murphy hustles forward (possible AoO for goblin sentry against Murphy) to AD14 as he yells for the elemental and points toward the two crossbow-wielding goblins who just stepped out of the lair, one of whom shot at the elemental. He signals for the creature to go to them, then, making a whirling motion with his finger, hand and forearm pointing skyward, asks him to form into a whirlwind.

The air elemental is inclined to do so. It flies swiftly towards the pair, and begins to fly around in a very tight circle. Transforming into a twister, it picks up dust and debris from the ground, and possibly from the wall of the lair above the door if it is formed of earth. The goblin which loosed a bolt against the whirlwind a moment ago finds himself surrounded by the buffeting cylinder of air which reaches from the ground upwards to 30 feet - 5' in diameter at its base, 10' in the middle, and 15' in diameter at the top.

[Goblin #2 make a reflex saving throw, DC12, or take 5 hp damage. It must make a second reflex save or be picked up bodily and held suspended in the powerful winds, automatically taking 1d4+1 damage per round. Take a -4 penalty to dexterity and a -2 penalty on attack rolls. After passing over the first goblin, the elemental moves over the next goblin #3, which will need to make similar saving throws, and potentially suffer similar effects - damage 2. The elemental will take up as many goblins as it can now and in the next few rounds.] [The whirlwind does not provoke attacks of opportunity against the elemental.]

The swirling cloud of debris which the whirlwhind kicks up itself quickly reaches a diameter of 15' around the base and upwards; obscures all vision, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. Creatures 5 feet away have concealment, those farther away have total concealment. Those within the cloud of debris (basically AN15,16,17; AO15,16,17, AP15,16,17) must succeed on a concentration check (DC15 + spell level) to cast a spell.

Question: Hasn't Faoil been able to trip the Goblin?

DM Steven - you're correct I missed that one. The Goblin sentinel is knocked prone on the ground... please check the DM post above to see this corrected. Hazel and Faoil get another AoO due to the Goblin standing up... with only 6HP the Goblin falls quickly - even to the first AoO

(I went ahead and rolled Shel's perception to see if she can see the Goblins at the lair... Shel's perception 21)

Shel moves closer untill she has a clear visual on the Goblins... she then casts a sleep spell...

Murphy runs past the Goblin sentinel... there little risk for him as Hazel's loyal companion just tripped the Goblin and as he wanted to get up Hazel made an end to his miserable existance. He guides the Air Elemental forward as it changes into a Whirlwind engulfing the goblins ans obscuring them from sight...

Edric hurries forward but by the time he readies his sling Hazel already took care of it...

Alouryn runs up next to Hazel... ready for some action next turn...


Shel's sleep spell potentially affects 4 Goblins... 3 of them fall sleeping on th ground... ( purple ones on the map are sleeping)
The elemental whirlind easily picks up 2 of the sleeping Goblins...

Goblin 5 and 6 decide it's best to go back inside... both are nimble enough to avoid the whirwind.

The whirlwind picks up the remaining sleeper(s), then rises into the air while containing the whirling bodies, and backs away from the entrance as it ascends with its base to about 30 feet, its top at 60. (damage to those within: 3, 5, 2 - ignore the d3=1 - clicked on wrong spot)

Murphy hustles forward to AL14. As he moves he says in halfling, "Like as not they have some dogs. I've got part of one orange jar left, and I think we have another couple of them? Let's get ready in case they send them out... but who wants to go into their - what is is - a cave in the hill?"

With the visible targets either asleep or vanished, the Halflings regroup in front of the... what... cave?... lair?... home?!...

Shel complements Murphy on his elemental and wonders how they will get those Goblins out of their cave... Eldon probably is somewhere in there...
Murphy further directs the Elemental as it risez ever higher with the still sleeping Goblins. He then ponders about the odds that there are more dogs inside... the jars with the orange goo might protect you from the Goblin dandruf...

Edric and Eral also hurry forward realising they need to get inside quickly... after all Eldon probably is inside and there's no way to tell how they will now treat Eldon...

Alouryn teams up with Hazel sacrificing her health should her beloved ranger get hurt in the battle that seems to be inevitable...

At this time, the elemental winks out and returns to wherever it was summoned... dropping 3 battered goblins from a height of 30-50 feet (and suffering the attendant damage from a drop from that height: 8, 8, 14).

"I... I thought it would stay around longer," Murphy say, a bit sadly, looking at the limp goblin bodies. "So much for my thought to negotiate a hostage exchange." He replies to Shel from her earlier comment, "Thanks. I want to learn the language of the air."

He takes the jar with orange paste in it. He rubs some on his hands, feet and face. "How do I look?" he asks his friends. He hands the jar over to Alouryn. "Why don't you try some, too, and Hazel? And whoever else wants to use it - until we run out."

He considers what his companions have said, then adds, "If he had a hostage or two, I'd go in Edric's direction. Since we don't, I think Shel has the right of it. If anyone can give us a blessing, that would be welcome. But let's go inside, and get Eldon back. Adomorn, can you look after my pony, Pippa? And shout if you see any other critters about!"

To the rest he says, "Be prepared for goblins and their rat-like dogs. Hazel, I'll be right behind you and Alouryn - Edric, anyone else, join us, and let's get Mister Tosscobble back!"

If Hazel, Alouryn, and the others are amenable to this, he follows Hazel and Faoil, and is either next to or slightly ahead of Alouryn (so as to help defend her, but allow her to remain near enough to Hazel). He has his sickle out, and is as ready for action as he can be.

(She just has to stay within 30' of Hazel to keep the spell going.) She will also keep her whip at the ready to get disarm oppies on any goblins that get within 15' of her.

She scoops out a bit, takes a whiff and rubs it into her face and arms. "Interesting stuff, this is. Wonder how it tastes...well, plenty of time for that later. Let's go get Eldon."

Everyone gather near and I will bless us. It should last a while, hopefully enough to get Eldon back.

With Alouryn's spell emboldening him, Hazel is ready to go into the cave only with the lovely Alouryn at his side... Alouryn reacts appreciative but she gently brings Hazel back with his feet on the ground... which the Ranger somewhat red-faces accepts..

Eral wants to make his way into the cave as quickly as possiblebut Edric wonders if they can't just smoke them out.

...thud...douff... thump...

The three sleeping Goblins fall as the Air elemental vanishes from this plain to the elemental... all three are badly bruised and battered and no longer show any signs of life... they have mercilessly been smacked to the ground breaking almost every bone in their bodies...

Murphy watches kinda in surprise. He had hoped the other Goblins would have stayed outside a bit longer to negotiate hostage exchange...
He then digs up the orange paste that can protect them from the Goblin Dog dander. Murphy first uses the paste. His face, arms and hands are bright orange once he's finished. Alouryn and Shel follow Murphy's example so after a little while they too look like oversized carrots.

(The paste protects you from the Goblin Dog Dander. Downside is your skin will remain orange for a week... )

Hazel smiles as he sees his orange friends and kindly refuses to use the goo on his own skin...

Adomorn looks after Pipa while the others assemble in front if the cave... there's a foul stench, unmistakably Goblin, coming from the lair... If you stare into the dimlit cave entrance you can see it's a natural cave tunnel... as it seems to twist a couple of feet inside it's impossible to say where the tunnel is going.

Shel considers Adomorn's words on the Goblin count... was the whole contignent of Goblins out to capture Eldon? Eral casts one extra spell on the group and then prepares to go inside.

(All please give me your next coordinates down the tunnel...)

As Murphy receives the blessing of Domi through the agency of Eral, he thinks to grab the coiled rope with the loops off the side of Pippa. "Adomorn will watch after you, girl."

Murphy HP16/16 AC:15/13/13 Message w/Hazel, Shel (Kim McCoy) 
Sunday December 1st, 2013 6:36:26 PM

As DM Steven updated his post as I was posting mine, the map and comments on it were not there when I wrote. Regarding positioning, my take is that a few rounds were spent after the two goblins retreated within as we shared the anti-itch cream and discussed things, and people were gathering at or near the entrance as this was done. Rather than speaking in the common tongue, and aside from his goblin rantings earlier, everything he has said to his friends is in the halfling tongue, as he hopes any goblins listening will not understand.

The whirlwind, having earlier backed away from the entrance as it ascended, likely dropped the goblins at or near AK15. Murphy will follow after Hazel / Faoil / Eral, passing through AQ15 and tracking along the left side of the twisting tunnel. He has a loop of rope over his shoulders around his neck, laying over his chest and stomach. His left hand holds the bag of caltrops. His right hand has a sickle. Thus laden - he will likely end up dropping something at some point, but is trying to be as prepared as he can.]
Murphy says one more thing. "If we need to put any rat-dogs down, that's fine. Let's try to leave the goblins alive, though. It will be easier to talk with them that way. Knock them out if you need to. But our old friend's life is the most important."

OOC: Shel wants to be in the middle to the back if the party. She will move to AR 15, assuming the party moves with her. If not, she'll hang at the entrance until the group goes deeper. Also, in the DM's summary post, it says both at Shel did and didn't use the orange paste. I posted that Shel actually used it, just to clarify.

(DM Steven - correct, I wrote Shel refuses the paste but it should have been Hazel - DM post corrected

"This looks spooky," the sorcerer whispers as she peeks into the front of the cavern. As she looks in, she tries to determine how far back the light stretches, deciding whether or not to use her Light cantrip to illuminate their way.

Slowly the Humble's Sword close in on the Goblin Lair...

Adomorn is left outside taking care for Pipa.

Hazel, riding Faoil, is taking the lead with Eral at his side. (Faoil is 'under' Hazel so no longer showing on the map. If Hazel dismounts Faoil and the riding dog attacks solo they will both appear on map)

Murphy and Shel take the center row...

Edric and Alouryn close the ranks...

Protective spells are cast and everyone prepares to enter the stinking Goblin hole... All but Hazel are bright orange - a color that suits only some and they will look like this for another week...

...

Once their eyes are more or less accustomed to the dim lit cave entrance they see somewhat more where it leads to. With no torches on the wall you can only see a faint light coming around the corner up ahead. You can see some 30 feet inside...

Eral suddenly notices the wall to his right stops and opens up to a smaller corridor...

[Using perception roll of 27, he hears the voice - by the way, male? What language? Deep voice, weak voice, high pitched, what?]

"They want to open the pen for the dogs. Run ahead!" Murphy says in halfling.

He runs ahead, ending up at about AW11.

As he runs, he calls out in the goblin tongue (or, in whatever tongue the halting voice spoke), "If you would live, do not open pens or dogs will die. Surrender, and we talk. Fight, and you may die." [Diplomacy 4 :-)] Murphy hopes it takes a while for whoever is doing it to open the dogs' pen.

Seeing the narrow corridor on his right Eral decides to check it out to make sure there are no Goblins nor dogs hiding in there to get at their rear... it's pretty dark in there but as his eyes are getting more and more adjusted and the faint light shining in from the entrance he's pretty sure the little storage chamber is empty. Apart from some pretty stinking garbage there's nothing there... or so it seems...

While Eral checks out the side corridor Shel and Murphy hears a male voice with a serious stutter command to open the dog pens... Immediately the Halflings react and shout right back while they run forward! While you leave the entrance light you notice the corridor ahead seems to be dimly illuminated. Not much but sufficient for you all to see well enough not to be needing any extra light or torch.

"Run Ahead' Murphy shouts and in Goblin he adds they should surrender or risk their lives...
Murphy's diplomatic approach however is far from succesful and is only followed by laughter...

In Goblin the voice shouts back : "B bb be ... gg gg gege gone ... o o o o orrr r ... y y yrrr F fF ffrien nn dd d d ddd ... dai ai d dies ... "

...

Shel and Murphy run forward, closely followed by Hazel and Alouryn, untill they reach a curve in the corridor that apparently leads to a central room. You can't see around the bend yet but you can see and hear a crackeling fire somewhere in there which hears and illuminates the place. But that smell... by Domi that's a foul odor... Edric remains close to Eral considering it's indeed far safer not to split up in here.

Adomorn remains outside watching over Pipa. Faoil whines as he also hears noises coming from the cave... Adomorn ponders if he would better go in and help his new found friends or stay with the Pony like he promised. He's quite certain that this dog here... who seems to be rather witty would be perfectly capable of protecting this pony... Perhaps...

Those closest to the central chamber Perception DC15 Highlight to display spoiler: { You can hear keys from padlocks being turned and metal cages being opened... }

In a split second Murphy takes in the chamber. In the opposite corner a fierce looking Goblin wielding a short sword stands next to a prison cage... inside... Eldon! The Goblin, who obviously is the leader of this bunch watches you showing his rotten teeth... Next to him his dog.

There's a fire burning in the center.

Three other dogs run towards you! Goblin 1 and 2 just openend the dog pens and now unsheath their shortswords. Behind a low rock formation a Goblin stands with an arrow with Murphy's name on... Left of Murphy another archer waits. Both have 20% concealment...

Murphy opens his big bag of caltrops (4 sets combined into one bag), and scatters them before him so they cover BB14, BC14, BB13, BC13 - four five-foot squares (one ten-foot square), as a full-round action. "Go around behind me, friends, Three dogs coming my way, two archers to the left, two more guys by cages and Mister Stutter about 90 feet away with his own dog near our friend." All this said loudly in halfling - so the goblins will need to know halfling to understand what he is saying. He is still at BC12, an arrow in his left thigh.

For each caltrop square the dogs go through, make a d20 attack versus their armor class (shield, armor, deflection bonuses do not count). If a caltrop attack succeeds, they take 1 hp damage; the dog must stop immediately; and movement is at one-half for 24 hours (or until healed).

Hazel takes position next to Murphy and uses his sling staff missing on of the incoming dogs - not even Alouryn's Guidance can make him hit the dogs. (I didn't consider you having a line of sight to use your range attack last turn)

Edric and Eral move up to the front fighters. Adomorn feels he can do better rather than guarding the horse. He takes Faoil and Pipa inside... it doesn't take long for him to close in on the rest...

The 3 Goblin dogs charge into Murphy and Hazel...

Dog 1 steps onto the caltrops and yelps in pain! (Hits AC20 - nat 20 - 1HP). Dog 2 is lso stopped by the caltrops (hits AC20 - nat 20 - 1HP). Dog 3 can't get close enough yet. (Rolled an attack for each caltrop)

Goblin 1 and 2 come closer wih their blades readied.

Murphy takes a five-foot step back to BF10 (to avoid AoO from the dog) and casts obscuring mist.

A misty vapor arises in a 20 foot radius from the druid, obscuring all sight, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. A creature 5 feet away has concealment (attacks have a 20% miss chance).

Shel feels the thrill of knocking out one after the other withher Color Spray spells... she moves to face Khadzh and for the third time throws some colourful dust towards the goblins... Shel's spells proove to be awesome for even the Goblin leader crashes unconscious to the ground... he's out for 4 turns... just about in time to wake up with the two unconscious dogs and Goblin 1 who's out cold also... of course Shel knows that once they are awake they'll still be blinded and stunned for at least a couple of seconds...

Eral makes a mighty swing wih his sword thouroughly shredding the Goblin's leather armor and causing a severe gash accros the Goblin's belly...

Alouryn rushes in place hoping to disarm Khadzh but he's already watching the whole Woldian Constellation...

Adomorn too grabs his bow and gets in place for some ranged supporting fire.

Then suddenly a misty vapour appears... just in front of Adomorn a thick fog just blocks all vision. (The vapor obscures all sight, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. A creature 5 feet away has concealment (attacks have a 20% miss chance). Creatures farther away have total concealment (50% miss chance, and the attacker cannot use sight to locate the target).)
Turns out the over actie Druid Murphy is responsible... after several times being hit, Murphy hopes he can get through this fight alive...

(The light grey areas on the map are fog - difficult to get it well on google docs... hope you all get tue picture...)


Hazel seems to be frozen by the sight of the dog that just tried to bite him... but already the dogs makes a second attempt. This time the dog comes close but his teeth only scratch Hazel's Iron Shirt a little.

G2 clings to life, raises his swoed again but fails to hit.

Khadzh dog moves 5ft forward.. through the mist he sees Shel and tries to bite her but the dog's teeth almost break from slamming his jaws onto eachother.
Archer 4 tries to see Murphy through the fog but due to the Obscuring Mist he misses a shot that therwise would have certainly hit Murphy.

Archer 3 sees little of what is going on in the mist... and you can't see him moving South towards Eldon's cage either...

Shel steps back to BE 10, trying to get out of range of that snapping mutt that was chasing her. Maybe one of the others could injure it, if it followed her. It was too crowded for one of her spells this round, as she didn't want to take a chance on catching her friends in the blast.

Seeing Khadzh fall to the ground unconscious, Eral will perform a Coup De Grace on the Leader. This will provoke an AOO from G2.

Hazel's weapon does its work on the goblin dog this time, hitting AC 15 for 7 points of damage. "Adomorn, you're here?" the ranger asks in Halfling. He points in a diagonal direction down toward where the cage is. "Can you go get our friend Eldon out of the cage? Go around me - there are caltrops right in front of me."

If his blow lays low the dog, Hazel moves carefully through the next few squares to BB15, looking and, if its misty, feeling gingerly with his feet to avoid the spikes. He says, "Alouryn, I'm going to find our friend." If the dog is still moving, he will instead remain and prepare again to attack.

[Note, any creature, including a dog, that fights in one of the squares with caltrops needs to check each round to see if another caltrop was stepped upon, unless they do not move their feet at all. An attacking dog almost always moves its feet to attack. 1d20 to hit, 1 hp damage. One other exception is if a person moves at half speed, deliberately picking his way to avoid stepping upon the caltrops. It is also possible that a dog that was color sprayed would have landed upon one or more caltrops with its body.]
[Ignore d3=2 - mouse hit that instead of 'Roll' button for 2nd d20 attack roll. Included blessing in bonus to hit.

Shel backs away from Khadhz's dog but isn't casting any new spells. Eral mercilessly lands his warhammer on the back of Khadzh skull... you're quite positive that the cracking sound isn't comming from Eral's hammer...

Just before Murphy runs of to finding Eldon, Alouryn calls upon her divine powers and cast a healing spell on Murphy... a daunting manouvre get's him to pass Khadzh Dog... The Dog makes an AoO vs Murphy hitting AC19 - damage 8HP... (make a DC12 Fort save vs the rash - unless if you have the orange goo on your face)

(DM Steven : perhaps not clear on the map? I did specify which Dogs or Goblines were unconscious but Khadzh Dog is alive and well... eager to plant his teeth in Murphy's behind...)

Adomorn tries to come closer but is a little distracted with the mist...

Edric brings his axe down upon Goblin 2... the poor thing falls dead on the ground.
Hazel makes his weapon do the trick... he slays the dog in front of him. Then he darts through the caltrops and exits the mist South.

Goblin 4 sees littls of what is going on... but he thinks he can spot a Halfling in the mist but his aim sucks.

Goblin 3 opens the cage, drags his sword and stands next to Eldon who has his hands and feet tied and a cloth tucked in his mouth. Eldon's defenceless...

Khadzh Dog howls as he sees his boss die... he shakes his body (move action) making dander spread in a 10ft circle. All those not protected by the orange goo make a DC12 Fort save vs the itching rash.

Then the mad dog makes a 5ft step forward and attemtps to bite Alouryn but he fails...

If you would like a chance to know many other adventurers from around the Wold, get thee over to the Giggling Ghost - the dream-time visiting place for all Woldian adventurers.

We are holding the annual Yuletide Festival there - each week a new game - and the Tree filled with ornaments will soon have the fishing poles brought in, that you might snag some presents for your character. Sometimes people do present swaps with each other from what they pull in.

Some people go for the gifts (a few of them I picked up from last year's Yuletide have helped us out in this game), some go for the crazy fun, the food, the fellowship. Join in. Add to the tradition. It's part of what makes this place we call the Wold.

Adomorn is there already, and Murphy just joined him. How do you get inside? Via the fireplace at the inn - just post your arrival, and interact. See you there, I hope!

Shel has the orange goo on, so no Fort save should be required.

Shel tries to focus herself, and cast her Acid Splash cantrip at the dog threatening she and Alouryn. Focusing mightily, she was able to cast her spell.

She fired a glob at acid at the dog. It sizzles at it strikes the dog.

Omg just lost my post... I have to redo the whole thing - need sleep - wil post in a few hours... sorry


Murphy and Hazel run acros the dimlit room to stop the Goblin from murdering Eldon. Murphy speaks to the Goblin hoping to convince him. Murphy's words are answered with angry barks from the Goblin as he shouts : "BE GONE... OR TRADER GONE..."

 

Eral has no difficulty in resisting the dander from Khadzh's dog but none the less fails to strike the creature down. He hopes to draw the beast's attention so he leaves Alouryn unharmed.

Shel too wants to remove the Dog from this Wold's existance and throws an acid blob at it... the acid singes it's fur and makes the Dog forget about Eral's feeble attempt to harm him and instead makes the Goblin Dog focus on Shel...

 

Adomorn nocks an arrow and scans for targets. His arrow first points at Dog 1 but he sees the creature is dead already... then he turns left and through the mist he spots Goblin 1... But his aim is blurred by the mist and he fails to connect (you would normally have something like a +4 to +6 or so on your attack roll but it would still not be enough to harm the Goblin.)

 

Khadzh Dog is growling madly at Shel who wields the burning Acid... he trashes about and takes a bite out of Shel's arm (hitting AC19 damage 7 + check resistance to rash)

Goblin 4 is lost in the mist and he makes a double move south hoping to find the end of the fog somewhere... Once out of the fog he notices Murphy and Hazel rushing for the cage. Having make a double move he can'n attack.

 

Goblin 3 holds his sword near Eldon's throat... He positions Eldon between himself and Murphy and Hazel taking 50% concealment. Beware my frieds... there's a chance to strike the wrong target...

 

G1's unconscious for another 2 turns

Coup de Grace - Pathfinder : PLEASE READ (ADM Kim) 
Thursday December 12th, 2013 9:44:02 PM

Coup de Grace: As a full-round action, you can use a melee weapon to deliver a coup de grace (pronounced "coo day grahs") to a helpless opponent. You can also use a bow or crossbow, provided you are adjacent to the target.

You automatically hit and score a critical hit. If the defender survives the damage, he must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + damage dealt) or die. A rogue also gets her extra sneak attack damage against a helpless opponent when delivering a coup de grace.

Delivering a coup de grace provokes attacks of opportunity from threatening opponents.

You can't deliver a coup de grace against a creature that is immune to critical hits. You can deliver a coup de grace against a creature with total concealment, but doing this requires two consecutive full-round actions (one to "find" the creature once you've determined what square it's in, and one to deliver the coup de grace).
=============
So, each of you within reach of a helpless opponent Do Not Have To Roll To Hit. You do roll critical hit damage.
Roll the damage (with all modifiers) multiple times and total the results. So if your weapon does 1d4+1, with a crit of x3, you roll 1d4+1 three times and add the results together.

Repost if you were attacking a helpless opponent and want to finish him off.

Finally the obscuring mist vanishes. Now that the battlefield is visible to all you can see a lot of goblins and dogs already on the ground... you can see some of yiur friends heavily bleeding... and you can see Eldon being threathened by one of the Goblins...

Aliurryn cast a guidance spell on Eral hoping it will help him slay the dreadful dog... the dog eyes turn blank as Shel's colored sand washes over him. Eral then succesfully kills Khadzh's dog. The creature fall in the dirt leaving only some dander to gently land on it's beaten and scorched fur...

Edric follows Hazel and Murphy towards Eldon.

Having missed his first arrow, Adomorn shoots again... this time his arrow pierces Goblin 1's leather armor... a small circle of blood forms on the leather making the Goblin star at it in panic... (added a +4 to your att roll)

Worried the Goblin won't listen to reason Murphy has no other choice than to finish the Goblin... a powerful lightning arc zaps Eldon's guard. Hazel too hopesto free Eldon and attacks but already the Goblin's dead on the ground... his body somehat smoking from the lightning that struck him.


This leaves only Goblin 4 on his feet. Once the mist cleared he could see Hazel and Murphy running towards Eldon. He aims for Murphy buthe would even miss n elephant when it stood in front of him...

Only now, with the passing of the arrow from G4, does Hazel realise there's another Goblin that wanted to keep Eldon imprisoned. He rapidly throws two stones at the Goblin and though only 1 hits it's a enough to make the Goblin try to make a run for it...

Shel, Alouryn and Adomorn take in the aftermath of their raid on the Goblin lair. Shel urges his friends to take care of the unconscious Dogs and Goblin on the ground but only Adomorn acts accordingly as he slays one of the dogs. Alouryn heals Shel who has taken quite a few bites... one more would have made her meet the Grey One perhaps.

G1's slowly crawls on all fours... his weapon on the ground holding his hands in front of him hoping to orientate him... he's still blinded and stunned for another 2 rounds...

Dog 2 is killed the moment he started to wake up...

Dog 3's out for 1 more turn.

Goblin 4 drops his bow and makes a run for it... as he goes he takes out his sword. He runs 60ft towards the exit... an exit that is sadly blocked by a number of murderous Halflings.


Murphy stands next to Eldon and frees the old Trader from his bonds. He talks about how Cora missed him and how... but... Eldon interrupts him quickly...

Murphy turns toward the others for a moment, despite Eldon's urgent question. "See if we can capture a few without killing them!" he shouts in halfling across the chamber.

He returns his attention to Eldon. "Sarabella Lovesong? She is fine, as far as I know. We got Bingo healed up, and he took our cart back to town, said he would tell the Lady Sarabella and our mayor what had happened, with the goblins' attack and all.

"You can tell by my face and hands that we found some of the orange paste." Murphy wipes his bloody face where the dog bit it - his countenance now a mixture of orange and red.

"Anyway, the priestess told us before we left that she fears we will need a good deal of the paste fairly soon."

He looks Eldon over to see if he may be in need of healing. "You feel ready to move? Why don't you come and let us all know whatever you want us to know. We can take a quick look over this place, see if there is anything that may help us figure out what they're up to, place the goblin bodies up in the trees - that's how they like their bodies to be taken care of - then hurry back to Humble's Ford."

He considers a moment. "Unless you want us to gather more of the fixin's for the paste before we go that way."

Though he'd like to stay and talk with Eldon Tosscobble, Hazel realizes that there might be more mayhem back near the entrance, so he runs full out in pursuit of the fleeing goblin, getting as far as BJ15. "Stop that guy! Don't let him get out! Adomorn, Eral, Shel, Sweetheart!"

Did I say 'sweetheart'?

"Faoil - get the goblin!"

Adomorn hears the calling out. He puts his arrow back and attempts to tackle the goblin.

DM Steven : it would require a grapple roll. Grappeling is one of the most difficult rules to catch on but there's a fairly straightforward schedule you can follow. I will try to send it to ya by email later. I'll roll a dice for you and see if it can work.

Shel steps over to the unconscious Goblin Dog and while she casually thanks Alouryn, she mercilessly tries to kill the poor beast... but still there's life flowing through the dog's veins as he's not willing to give up that easily... Awaking the dog gently howls in pain and tries to get on its paws but for another 3 turns he is both blinded and stunned.

As Goblin 4 tries to make a run for it Eral tries to stop him from getting others but his swing goes wide. Murphy urges all to try and get at least one alive though...
Having heard it would be good to keep one alive Alouryn tries to disarm the Goblin but her whip can't get hold of the sword in his hands.

"Stop that guy! Don't let him get out! Adomorn, Eral, Shel, Sweetheart!" Hazel shouts as he makes a run for the entrance...

... sweetheart ?!? ...

Adomorn attempts to stop the Goblin as he runs past him... so far he has darted past Eral's Warhammer and Alouryn's colourful whip... but the rogue hopes to catch him bare handed...

Adomorn's grapple check hits CMD 21
Adomorn doesn't have the Improoved Grapple Feature so Goblin 4 gets an AoO vs Adomorn
Goblin AoO hits AC22 - Natural - no crit - damage 4HP
So grapple check applies to Goblin CMD+4 = 16


Adomorn succesfully grapples the Goblin taking 4 HP with the maneuvre!! They both land at BB11 - the Goblin wriggeling beneath Adomorn attempting to escape next round. In front of the grappeling due Faoil stands growling waiting for the Goblin to make a move to escape... the dog almost seems to look forward to the prospect of having this creature trying to escape...

Edric too runs after the Goblin.

Back at the cage Murphy gently speaks with Eldon trying to reassure him that they left Sarabella safe and sound at home and that Bingo was asked to send notice to her and the mayor...

"... NO NO NO DEAR BOY ... We MUST hurry back! How long have we been gone?! ... Sarabella is in grave danger!! I heard this Goblin Leader saying they would take care of her... take me home lad for I fear out beloved town... " while he was ranting Eldon tried to get back on his feet but weakened by his captivity he staggers and falls back to the floor...

"Help me lad... take me home... hurry...

Seeing that Adomorn and Edric are taking care of the last goblins he will start grabbing what ever he can off the Goblin Leader to sort through on the trek back to town.

"Hazel, Any chance of these dogs recovering or should we put them out of their misery?

By the sounds of it we need to get on the way quickly so pick up what we need and do a quick search. Do we want to send 2 back on the ponies to warn the others or stay together as a group? "

As Hazel runs past he points to goblin #1 struggling on the ground and says, "Tie that miserable creature up." The ranger runs all the way over to where Adomorn and the goblin are wrestling and jumps to the other side. He turns around. In goblin he asks, "You want be tied up, or you want worse?"

Faoil licks his master, then growls again at the goblin.

Feeling less than at full strength himself, Murphy tries to help ease Eldon down as he stumbles. He then takes a moment to do what he can with his meagre healing skill (heal: 11).

"We will travel back, then." As he talks with Eldon, he takes a moment to look over the goblin which was hit with the lightning arc. He did not know whether that would fell him or not, but is grateful it worked so well. He checks to see if the goblin is breathing, he listens to hear if the heart beats. Sometimes lightning might stop the heart. He takes out a small mirror and holds it to his nostrils. If there is no sign of life, he lets him lie for now. If there are signs of life, he may take additional action. He takes the sword the goblin wielded, his bow and arrows, too, checks for and relieves him of any other weapons.

He still has the looped rope over him. "I'm going to wrap this around you in a few places, and we will be bound together for support. Let me walk you over to where Alouryn is, and she will pray to Flower to help you regain your strength. She is a mighty healer."

As he helps the old man hobble across the large cavern - if such they can do together - he talks with him. "What do you suppose the goblin leader meant by saying they would take care of her? Was he talking about his own group, or another, do you suppose? Anything you can remember about what they said among themselves, their plans, could help."

Heal: 11

I saw your question for Hazel - but over in this section of the cavern we are still in combat, and Hazel has six seconds to do what he did. Did not want to ignore your question - he is just super-focused on making sure that one fellow does not escape. So, it is up to you as to whether you want to put the rest of the dogs down. Murphy's earlier counsel was to leave a few goblins alive.

One is working on coming around... and will do so if no one constrains him while it is still easy to do.

Hint: Non-lethal damage.

Adomorn Millstone (scott)

Adomorn continues to hold the goblin in his grips as long as possible so the rest of the group can catch up and help him.

"Yes, let's give the cave a quick search before we go. There may be some clues or valuables we need. But quickly, who knows what danger Sarabella and the town may be in?"

Edric begins a hasty search of the cave.

Perception: 17

DM Steven 
Wednesday December 18th, 2013 6:22:12 PM

Eral wonders if they should dispose of the Goblin Dogs and questions Hazel about it. Also, he makes sure whatever valuables are to be found in the cave are quickly retrieved.

Shel kills another Dog... a brutal spell rips through the animals body making it collapse to the ground shuddering in pain...

With Adomorn and Hazel now both on top of him the Goblin whines in fear and in goblin he curses the day that he joined Khadzh's group... he releases his sword...

Murphy checks if the one threatening Eldon is actually dead or just unconscious but as no condensation forms on the mirror he holds in front of the Goblin's nose he realises the poor thing is thouroughly dead...

Edric helps out Eral as he gathers all the interesting things around the cave.

Then Murphy supports Eldon trying to get out of the cave slowly. Eldon is pretty weak at the moment. He clearly didn't get much to eat or drink and whatever food he got was rotten meat and stinking bread loaded with fungi...

"We'll talk while we head to town lad... but... hurry... I'll explain as we travel home. I just fear I won't be able to walk all the way back... please help me... "


Here's a list of what you can assemble :
Khadzh : tanglefoot bags (2), MW scale mail, longspear, shortbow with 20 arrows, short sword, sack of dead rats, long stick, length of string, Short Sword (looks very good), pouch with 1000Gp worth of gems (clearly some kind of paiement)
8 Goblin Warriors total inside and outside : 8 leather armor, 4 light wooden shield, 8 short sword, 6 short bow with 20 arrows

Everyone also is awarded with 2300Xp (all including Adomorn)

Shel will cast Detect Magic once all the threats have been neutralized, scanning the gear assembled.

"What's that you say, Eldon? Why do we need to rush home? ". Once Eldon fills her in, Shel begins to panic as well, trying her best to get the group to hustle up for the trip back.

Eral will go ahead and Channel positive Energy once everyone is collected in one place. He will channel it twice if there is time before we head out.

"Get what we can strapped onto one pony as quick as possible and lets get on our way. Someone search the dead ones outside when we pass them. Eldon can ride on the other pony and I will try to keep him stable."

Hazel uses his 50' of silk rope carefully to bind the goblin which Adomorn tackled, and asks for someone else to provide rope for tieing up the other goblin who is just now recovering from Shel's effective actions.

Each one he hobbles, so they can walk - but cannot move their feet wide enough effectively to run. Hands are tied behind the back, and separated vertically from each other by a short stick so their hands cannot work in tandem. Once they begin to travel, he will check their bonds closely during a short break typically taken every hour. Each has a lead line, so that one of the halflings will keep the goblin at hand.

As the group prepares to leave, he takes one of the goblins (#4) off out of hearing distance of the other goblin (#1). If someone wants to join him to observe the interaction, that will be fine with him (add a few sense motive rolls if you do). To #4, he asks questions along the following lines:
What is your name?
The other one we tied up - what is his name?
What plans did you [plural] have for your prisoner?
How many of your people come to this cave, and how often?
What plans were made for Sarabella?
What plans were made about halfling dwellings?
Who is another leader besides Khadzh?
What other goblin groups work with him?
Who is Khadzh working for? Who paid him?
What allies do you have besides your own kind? Besides goblins?
How many giants are helping you?
How are they helping you?
Why did you capture the trader?
What did you plan to do with him?
How many spies are in Crescent Valley?
Who are they?
If you help us, treatment will be better
If you do not help us, treatment will not be better.
After he questions the one, he will isolate and question the other in a similar fashion. If he notes a discrepancy, he may (or may not) point it out. He might do a bit of playing one off the other, if doing so seems appropriate. If either one is cooperative, he gives him something small to eat, and a few ounces of water. If one does not cooperate, he gives him nothing. In either case, he places gags in each goblin's mouth, and blindfolds them for now.

Sense Motive for 2nd: 18;15;6;17;5;12;15

As an afterthought, just before they leave the cave area, and out of earshot of the goblins Hazel consults with Alouryn, Shel, Murphy and the others. "Let's tell them what we found in gems. Then tell them, 'If there is other treasure or things of importance hidden in this area, and you tell us, and cooperate, we will set aside a part of its value for you.'

"If they do, we might find something important we otherwise would have overlooked. If not, well, then on we go."

If no one objects, he asks this of each goblin - again, separately. He has one or two others to watch the goblins and listen as they respond. He does so inside the cave, removing their blindfolds and gags before he asks - just in case a quick glance from one might indicate where something of value may be found - whether high, low, in or near the fire, around the dog cages or Eldon's cage, or elsewhere.

He also asks Eldon if he might be aware of any such thing. "I know we need to leave, but it took over 3 days to get here, and a handful of minutes here may help a good deal."

"Thank you, Eral. That helped." (Murphy goes from 6/18 to 13/18 hit points, then adds 8 from level boost, to 21/26).

He makes certain that Eldon gets a little bit of food and water - not too much all at once, lest he get sick.

"Pippa here has a pack saddle, but, give us a few minutes, and I think I can rig up something to allow you to ride up there, too." He works at it, moving cargo, canvas and ropes around to give him a secure seat. He gives Pippa some feed, and water.

Is there water here in the lair? He is not too interested in the food they might have.

For the dogs, he suggests that, just before we leave, their bodies be stacked over the fire, making sure there is space for air between the corpses for efficient burning, using whatever random furniture, sticks, rocks are handy to do so. Last thing before exiting the cave, ensure they are burning well.

He talks quietly with goblin #4. "You have shown yourselves to be our enemies by kidnapping our friend, the trader. We do not wish to dishonor your dead, though. Among some goblins it is customary to leave their bodies in a large bush or tree, their face toward the sky, for the Raven. Do you want us to do that for them?"

If goblin #4 answers affirmatively, he enlists the aid of his friends. "Goblin bodies in bushes, face up, so birds can pluck their eyes, fly upward, and add to the wings of black Raven to make stars in the sky above."

He directs that their bodies be placed in the brush from A36 to about J36 on the map.

In goblin, he chants one of their burial chants,
"All of us now scream - ayi!
All of us now growl - gurdurr!
Our bowels churn within us,
They twist for you now gone."
"Say something short about them if you want."(OOC: If this does not confuse the goblins, I don't know what will)

He tells the goblins. "I expect you to try to escape. If you try, though, we'll probably kill you. Come without balking, do what we say, perhaps you will live." If they had earlier told of additional treasure, he adds, "You may want to eventually get your portion of the treasure you told us about to use while you are alive. Your choice."

He notes that #4 is wounded. He attempts to use his healing skills on him, but fails miserably (d20+6=7 - natural 1). Obviously there must be some aspect of goblin anatomy unfamiliar to him. "Quick! someone help heal this fellow before he dies!" he asks of Eral and Alouryn. He is most chagrined.

Once that is dealt with, the druid asks if anyone has anything else to say or do before they depart.

If not, away we go. Marching order needed.

Murphy leads Pippa in the middle of the group - at least one pair of people behind for rear defense, at least one pair in front for advance defense/recon.

Goblins - one in 2nd row, one near Pippa's left flank, as Hazel arranged - hobbled, lightly gagged, blindfolded at the beginning of the trip. Who will hold on to a rope for each? One on goblin #4, one on goblin #1.

Does someone want to try on the goblin leader's armor - masterwork scale mail? There is a very good looking short sword. Who wants to use it? Let's splits the gems between the two clerics just for the moment - 500 gp w/ Alouryn, 500 gp w/ Eral. We can break down distribution more later.

On leaving the camp, Perception: 15; Survival: 16.

The end of a scene is a good time to make nominations for hero points. You can nominate others, you can nominate yourself. The DM will rule in each case. I can think of several recommendations, but will ask you all to do so, except for this one: Alomorn Millstone deserves a hero point for daring to tackle a guy running toward him with a sword, and preventing his escape.

Feel free to discuss via email, as well as any treasure distribution ideas. I will send a starter email right now.
