NPCs
Garn

Garn, Dahlia, Maia, Istariel, and Hegy all run into the temple in time to see Xulara charge in and run through a Blue Kobold, as he reaches out and grabs her sword arm with his clawed fingers, a dark red light dancing among them. With but a touch, Xulara screams in agony, as 6 green kobolds open fire upon her jerking form. Xulara falls lifeless to the ground, a single bolt in her back and steam rising from her body. Satisfied, the creature walks to the body of a priest dressed in black robes, and begins to chant over it as another White Kobold takes note of your entrance and moves between the Blue and you five as the greens reload their crossbows.
OOC:
Damn. Those were some hateful dice.

Garn, Hegy, Maia, and Dahlia all run in to see a valiant attack from Xulara, right before she is ultimately struck down. The four of you don't know if she's still alive or not, but you have bigger problems than that, as there are 7 angry kobolds preparing to take you on.

with my axe drawn and locked into my gauntlet, and my shield in my left hand i prepare to face the kobold army. Its time to put my money where my mouth is. This is a holy place, and these servants of evil are defiling it.

"Stop him from harming the priest, I will handle this abomination.

Dahlia moves foward to battle the armored kobold. I have had all i am willing to take of these monsters.
OOC:
Dahlia intends to smash and slash this kobold into a bazillion pieces. Full strength attack with the dwarven war axe.

Garn charges in, roaring angrily at the fall of his companion. He approaches and launches his greatsword out in a powerful swing.
OOC:

Maia pulls out her own crossbow, satisfied with the spells she has woven thus far. She aims at the nearby kobolds (the ones that wouldn't risk her shooting her allies) and fires.
OOC:
These attack rolls with THESE damage rolls

Seeing Xulara fall to the ground, Hegy slowly moves forward while quietly chanting and raising her right arm in the air. With a flick of her wrist she becomes silent and stares at her fallen comrade.
OOC:
Casting Stabilize of Xulara.

This kobold is extremely well armored...much more so than the ones you faced outside. He deftly maneuvers his sword and shield to defend against both Garn and Dahlia, while letting his armor absorb the blows from Istariel. Hegy's magic takes hold and stops Xulara's bleeding, but she does not awaken, and Maia's shot goes wide of her mark.

The blue kobold pulls a small blue gemstone from his belt pouch as he finishes his chant, and a swirling mist arises from the priest's fallen form and seemingly soaks into the stone, suffusing it with a gentle glow. He holds the glowing gem up to eye level and says rather smugly
"Now you'll tell me EXACTLY where you've hidden the orb..."

The green kobolds open fire, two of them firing at each target. Maia, you are hit by two bolts, and take 16 damage. You fall to the ground unconscious, and the last thing you hear is the voice of Istariel in your head yelling your name. Istariel vanishes with a flash of light as he turns to run to Maia. Hegy, you are also hit by two bolts, and you take 14 damage. Garn, only one bolt strikes you, and in your rage, you feel the pain of 6 damage.

Dahlia, the White Kobold focuses on you, and practically roars that same phrase you heard outside from the other two. He takes a swipe at you with his longsword, which is glowing with a fell purple light...and misses as you lean backward. A vicious back cut follows, and you manage to deflect that with your shield.

Garn roars in rage and pain and swings mightily at the kobold in front of him.
OOC:
AC is back to 16!

Oh dear lord... this is becoming comical!

Dahlia seeing several comrades take massive damage sees that she will have to deal with blue herself. Garn is entangled with this creatures so dahlia side steps and charges blue. Activating smite evil against this clearly evil creature. If i am gonna go down in a blaze of glory, then this bastard is going with me. I fling my shield to the ground and switch to a two handed attack.

Holy shit an attack roll higher than a 9, wonder how I'll get boned out of this.
OOC:
go for broke, kill this guy or die trying charge.
GM Edit: Not that it matters, but you already used your smite evil for the day. CHAAAARGE

"Hold on, Maia" Hegy whispers to herself as she glares at the two crossbow wielding kobolds that struck her friend. Placing her hands together in front her face she dips them to the right and tilts her head so as to rest on them. "Sleep my little uglies, sleep..."
OOC:
BAM! Another sleep spell (the last one she has). Anything to keep from rolling dice!

Hegy, you cast your spell, and one of the little uglies falls fast asleep, crossbow clattering to the ground. The other yawns deeply, and seems to be slowed down and tired, but still awake. Dahlia charges forward and strikes, her axe digging deep into the blue kobold's back as he screams. Garn roars in anger as he brings his blade down in a vicious slash...only to have it miss completely and stick into the floor nearly a foot deep.

The remaining green kobolds open fire, riddling both Garn and Hegy with more crossbow bolts. Hegy falls to the ground, gravely injured.

The White kobold, seeing his advantage, leaps into action...running Garn through with his long sword. The powerful and angry barbarian's rage leaves him as he stares at the beast in shock, while the beast twists his sword and removes it. Garn falls to the ground.

The blue kobold whirls around, seriously injured and lashes a hand out to grab Dahlia's arm.
I've had about enough of you interlopers! He cries, as viciously cold energy courses from his arm into Dahlia's body. Dahlia, this is pain unlike anything you've ever experienced before, as this cold energy seeps into your body and seems to drain the very essence of your being from it.

The last thing the three of you see before darkness overtakes you is the Blue kobold limping to the shrine of Pharasma...and the screams of the villagers escort you into oblivion.
OOC:
End Prologue. Well fought. Everyone levels up to 4, and gains an additional 750 XP to boot. I'll give everyone a day or so to level up their characters. With that, everyone also gains 1 Hero Point.

In addition: Toshi earns an additional hero point for exceptional role play, and Dahlia earns one for very nearly killing Big Blue...like, 1 HP away from killing the bastard. We'll move this into the Chatter forums for now, as I'm gonna lock this thread.
