Rescue at Rivenroar (Game Thread)

[Nanshork]

Dalanath stays where he is, dagger drawn, waiting to see what the others do.

[Melblen_Cairn]

One of the goblins grabs his spent torch from the fountain and both then scurry around the edge of the room. They reach the corner and are quickly moving toward the edge of the lit space where Dunor and Soff'a lay in wait.

I am moving the goblins to right before Soff'a and Dunor as they head out.

The goblins will easily blunder into them if no one makes an effort to stay out of the way. There is more than enough room in the 10 foot hallway for them to be avoided even if they briefly occupy the same square as they leave. It will take a stealth check if any are moving to avoid them to try not to make any noise that would alert them to your presence.

Once they are in the darkness. They will also gain total concealment from you and be harder to attack.

Tkanz whispers to Xer as they are about to enter the darkness, "We plunder their dead in next room before we leave."

[Aurenn]

As the Goblins whisper to each other Gamesh realizes that he recognizes both of them from the goblin slaver caravan.  As the green glow in his eyes swells he growls, "Kill them."

Gamesh wants to protect the dwarf more than he wants the goblins dead, but only by a little, so he does his best to cover the unconscious creature to protect it from a stray crossbow bolt.

[Melblen_Cairn]

At the first sign of treachery the goblins raise their crossbows back. Tkanz screams, "Tricks! Xer shoot dems!" and with a small click his own crossbow fires the quarrel whistles at Atanos and hits the Elf in the leg.

Standard Action = Crossbow attack on Atanos [vs. AC] (1d20+9=24, 1d6+4=6)
This opens him up for an AoO due to making a ranged attack within melee range and since they are unaware of Soffa and Dunor they have a Combat advantage.

Xer fires almost at the start of Tkanz's warning. The dismal little crossbow does not have much power behind it and what would have hit Gamesh in the head drops over the distance and slams into his groin.

I figure everyone is readied for action here. The goblins kick off the round and we will count their moves to that spot as spent actions. The rest can go as they see fit this round and I will organize you in that order for the next...should there even be a need for a round 2

Dropping his scythe, Atanos grabs his bow and nocks an arrow in a single motion and lets fly at Xer. The goblin squeals like a stuck pig when the missile buries itself into his body.

[Melblen_Cairn]

The tall human's blade hums through the air as he slashes into the unaware goblins. Xer falls under the initial onslaught and the sudden magical wave of slashing force slams into both, four separate pieces of goblin hit the floor unmoving.

As the enemies die, Atanos uses his healing magic on his wounds. Offering the same to Gamesh's injuries as the group takes interest in the dwarf hanging unconscious from the wall.

(click to show/hide)

Those dies faster than I thought they would. They were still injured from the previous battle but Soff'a rolled really well that time.
Used another healing surge from both Atanos and Gamesh to bring you back to full.

[VennDygrem]

Dunor runs over to the dwarf and unties the bindings that hang him like some sort of twisted decoration upon the wall. He gently lowers the body to the ground.

"Hey, is there anything we can do for this fellow? He's pretty badly roughed up."

[Sk4mpE]

Søffå glances at his blade, somewhat surprised by the carnage it has wrought.  He quickly wipes the blade, then enters the room cautiously.

Picking up his torch in his free hand, Søffå looks at the dwarf being attended by Dunor; seeing his state, he sheathes his blade and offers some of his water to the prisoner.

[Melblen_Cairn]

The chains pull free of the wall with a good tug from Dunor's large arms. After a few moments the resilient prisoner comes to. "Ach, me head. Feels like ah had a hard night of drinkin' Durgen's Stout." taking a few small draws from Søffå's waterskin. ""Thank ye. Ye all are a sight fer me swollen eyes."

[Aurenn]

Gamesh shuffles through the goblins' belongings, hoping that these are the ones that would have his things.

[Melblen_Cairn]

(click to show/hide)

Searching the four separate parts of the corpses, you find one of your old coin pouches on body. But only a few copper and a silver piece remains of the once full container.  On the other, your old belt, repurposed as a makeshift bandoleer. Luckily both items are intact after the attack the separated the enemies torsos from their hips.

[Aurenn]

Replacing his belt and pouch Gamesh walks back to the dwarf "What is it you were doing here and how did those creatures capture you?"

[Melblen_Cairn]

"The town of Loudwater, dinnae be sendin ye fer us?"answering you with another question before continuing, "We be taken by this scum when they be attackin the town ah few nights ago. Fer meself, was staggerin back to me shop to sleep it off when four gobo slime jumped me. So if me town dinnae send ye, then howin yer findin yerselves in this gobo hole?"

[Aurenn]

Gamesh recounts escaping the goblin slavers, meeting the group, and their decsent into the dungeon.  Taking a seat on the ground across from the dwarf the Dragonborn slips into a light meditation and asks "How are you known?  What is your name"

[Melblen_Cairn]

The dwarf listens intently to Gamesh's telling grimly but brightens about the escape, "Giv'in it to mor'in a few of em on yer way out there eh?"

"Me name's Adronsus Mordar o' the Sundabar Mordar's. Be an Alchemist by trade." the dwarf manages proudly even in his beaten state. "Wonder what those buggers did to me shop back in Loudwater." and then as if he was hit suddenly by the thought, "Have ye run across any o' the others yet?"

[Melblen_Cairn]

"Well, lets see to some of those wounds." Atanos states and whispers a prayer to his deity, drawing on the divine power to close some of the Dwarf's more severe injuries.

"Ah, ye have me thanks lad."

Healing Word on Adronsus (1d6+4+4=13)
Many NPCs have one healing surge so this works. But now until Adronsus gets a full rest in, he is without a surge. Will add him or other NPCs with the group in to the overall status' so you can monitor them too.
