Road to Phandelver

Jun 21, 2016 10:55 pm
In the city of Neverwinter, a dwarf named Gundren Rockseeker has asked you to bring a wagonload of provisions to the rough-and-tumble settlement of Phandalin, a couple of days' travel southeast of the city. Gundren was clearly excited and more than a little secretive about his reasons for the trip, saying only that he and his brothers had found "something big," and that he'd pay you ten gold pieces each for escorting his supplies safely to Barthen's Provisions, a trading post in Phandalin. He then set out ahead of you on horse, along with a warrior escort named Sildar Hallwinter, claiming he needed to arrive early to "take care of business".

It's early in the morning in Neverwinter and you find the wagon and its oxen team ready for departure.

Kai was up before the sun what to bring what to bring kai looked over his work desk. His eyes scanning all the herbs and poultices he had been working on. hopefully this would not be a long trip. illness and injury seem to plague neverwiter and not all could afford the healing that the clerics offered. after several minutes of collecting and packing he felt he was ready then his eyes drifted to the bed. Hidden under the bed was an old satchel from a life Kai wishes he could forget. Kai turned for the door but stopped KAI!the words seemed to scream in his mind a serpent may shed its scales but it can not change what it is. the final words of his master hit him like a blow staggering him. Again Kai looked to the hidden pack "I am what I am...". Kai walked out the door with his travilers pack strapped to his back a quarter staff in hand a short bow over his shoulder, and at his waist a small satchel That had not seen the light of day form many, many years.

Kai arrives at the wagon just as the sun breaks in to view. Gundren told him more are to come on this journey but it seems he is the first to arrive. He sits down on the ground to rest. Rest when you can the words seemed to echo in his mind because you never know when your next chance will be

I remember it as if it were yesterday. Gundren requested council with Father about this endeavor. He had me sit with him on the meeting, feeling that it would be best since I would one day take over for him. After explaining the situation, I advised Father to let me go take part in the expedition. Reason being that it would be a great way to meet the people of Phandelin and let them know that they always have a listening ear and a helping hand from House Devereaux.

Gareth Devereaux, climbed into the wagon. "Glad to see you here."he says to the driver. The man sits in the back and looks to the staff wielding gentleman next to him. "Hello, friend. I am Gareth of House Devereaux." He extends his hand with a young, energetic, and sincere smile.

Luka scrambled as she finished up her morning chores including making breakfast for the children. She grumbled under her breath, and scolded herself for not setting her things out in advance. Jeez...I'm usually on top of things, but now i'm gonna be the one holding everyone up. This job is really important too. The orphanage needs as much income as it can get, and it won't help if I'm...*sigh* I must hurry. She made sure her armor, mace, and other equipment were secure to her person. The last thing she grabbed was her holy symbol of Sune. She stared fondly at the symbol, and held it close to her chest. Please watch over me, my comrades, and the children. As she concluded her small prayer, a poke at her side caused her to turn around. Three small children stood in front of her and gave her a small boxed lunch. Luka knelt down, and accepted the gift. Awww. Thank you so much. I'll be home soon, so you all behave yourselves. With goodbyes said, she left the orphanage to meet up with her group.

Luka smiled, and waved to her compatriots. Greeting, friends!

After being in Neverwinter for a day, I was able to get word of Gundren in need of people to escort a wagon of goods out of town.

Wonderful, I was hoping to find Gundren and ask his advice on the start of my journey. This will be exciting to help him.

I head out to find the wagon that following morning. When I arrived, I'm disappointed Gundren is gone, but glad to see the wagon is still here.

Luka shook the hands of her party members, and turned to Kai. "Oh yes she is. She was running around like her normal self. Thank you so much for your help." She gave a warm smile.

A young man in his twenties casually strolls towards the company. Everything about the way he walks, from the nonchalant cadence to his proud posture, tells of a nobleman - a nobleman who never had to hurry a single day in his life, because if everyone else can just wait for him, it would be their pleasure.

The man paused at the cart. With a few long seconds, he surveys the party with a knowing eye and a faint smirk. Everything he wears seem to just. . .belong on him, with a sense of elegance too often lost with lowborn peasantry.

"Gareth of House Dereveaux?" The young man says, seemingly ignoring everyone else in the party. His posture relaxes for all but a moment in a slight bow. Another nobleman? Funny the company that ten gold can attract. . .Then again, I doubt that either of us are here for the money.

"I am Colten of House Duveau, Waterdeep." With another pause, he finally announces with a slight emphasis on the "Waterdeep". "Well met."

The driver, a disheveled looking human man, is starting to grow impatient with all of the bantering. "When you all done here, git on board and we can move out. Got room fer one of you up front wit me, and two more can git in the wagon. Other three of ya will have to walk." the man, whose math skills are certainly questionable, says with a grunt.
OOC:
Once everyone picks a starting position and is ready to move we'll get the story along.

Easy there, friend. No need to get aggravated. I like a good walk in the morning. Gareth hops over the side of the wagon, turns to the driver and smiles while giving him a friendly bow.
Jun 22, 2016 2:45 pm
On any other day, Colten would be the first to ride. But now that there is another nobleman in his company who offered to walk, for goodness sake,he would have to do the same.

I never thought I would see the day when noblemen walk and peasants ride. Yet, here I am.Colten mused.

"Let's get going then, shall we?" He says flatly, more of a statement rather than a request.
Jun 22, 2016 3:07 pm
Gareth looks to the driver. Sir, is everyone here?
Jun 22, 2016 3:18 pm
I walk up to the wagon excitedly. "Wow haven't been on a wagon like this." Jumping up to the front seat by the driver, I lean over and start, with great curiosity, asking the driver a whole bunch of odd questions. "So, how fast does this thing go? What kind of weight can she pull? Did you get the driving gear from a local shop or is it from Never winter? I know a lot of people in never winter. My guild is there, nice people." and so on

"Waterdeep is the same way it has been, Gareth." Colten says when there is a break in the ramblings of the rest of the party. "Always changing, but somehow the same. It gets boring, tiresome even, you know?"

Good thing these fine boots fit well.
Jun 22, 2016 4:56 pm
BAH, when you are one with your people and come together as a community, things never get boring. You'll have friends abundant. Gareth turns to the newcomer pestering the driver and smiles. Alright, friend. Let's give him a break. There will be more than enough time for that on the road
Jun 22, 2016 4:59 pm
Curious about the expedition, Gareth turns to the driver. Is this everyone?

Luka climbs into the back of the wagon. I do believe that we are ready to depart. She let out a large sigh, took out her prayer book, and began reading.
Jun 22, 2016 8:05 pm
Good to see you here. I'm Gareth of House Devereaux. He gives a bow and a kind smile to the newcomer.
Jun 22, 2016 8:08 pm
She looked up from her book, and gave a bright smile. Greetings. I'm Luka Amastacia.
Jun 22, 2016 8:53 pm
Nice to meet you. He points to the book. What are you reading?
Jun 22, 2016 9:26 pm
She holds the book forward with pride. Oh. This is my prayer book of my lord Sune, the goddess of beauty and love. It's one of my treasures I can't go without. I'm always going back to it for inspiration.
Jun 22, 2016 9:36 pm
Gareth's eyebrows raise with intrigue. "Really? I've never really had any faith of my own except for in my people as a community. Could you teach me of Sune? I'd be be very grateful."
Jun 22, 2016 9:40 pm
Luka's eyes light up. Oh of course! I sometimes give sermons at our local church back in Neverwinter. Everybody is welcome there.
Jun 22, 2016 9:43 pm
Putting his hand to his mouth in contemplation, a realization comes across his face. "So you would be pretty knowledgeable on the subject. That's marvelous."
Jun 22, 2016 10:50 pm
Not entirely sure what to make of Holmag's stream of questions the driver simply ignores him and takes a count of everyone. "One, three, four, six, five... Five!" a few of you hear as he slowly counts, pointing to each of you in turn. "All right, we off!" he yells. Giving the reigns a quick shake the oxen start to lumber forward pulling the cart behind them. After a few minutes he turns to Holmag and simply says, "We only go this fast."

You spend the next few days following the High Road south from Neverwinter, making camp beside the trail each night at sun fall and breaking camp early each morning. The trip has been fairly unexciting thus far, the highlight being a caravan of entertainers heading north, signing tales of adventures along their way.

Early this morning your group veered east onto the Triboar Trail, known as much for its lurking bandits and outlaws as anything else, your journey still remains fairly boring until the early afternoon. As you come around a bend in the trail you spot two dead horses sprawled about fifty feet ahead of you, blocking the way. Each has several arrows sticking out of it. The woods press close to the trail here, with a steep embankment and dense thickets on either side.
Jun 22, 2016 10:58 pm
I'm not awake, I'm taking cat naps in the back of the wagon. Not conscious enough during this time to know what's going on. There is intermittent snoring as I drift in and out.

At the sight of the dead horses, Colten dons his buckler and draws his rapier. The thin blade quivers in the sunlight like the tail of an angry cat, ready to strike.

Finally, something worth my time. The young nobleman thought to himself, the familiar smirk appearing on the corner of his lips.
Jun 22, 2016 11:39 pm
Luka gave a bid yawn, and rubbed drowsiness from her eyes. She poked her head out of the wagon to take a look around, and upon spotting the horses, let out a gasp. She moved from her spot, and got up near the driver and Gareth. Oh my. What happened?

Those who move forward towards the horses recognize the mounts as belonging to Gundren and his warrior escort Sildar. The horses appear to have been dead for about day, obviously killed by the black-feathered arrows that now protrude from their corpses. The saddlebags on both mounts appear to have been thoroughly looted and an empty leather map case lies near by.

Suddenly you hear high pitched screams coming from either side of the road...

Two screaming goblins from either side of the road set their sites on Gareth and Colton rushing furiously towards them through the thickets. Two other goblins, both from the right side of the road, pop up their heads, send arrows flying towards the cart, and disappear out of sight. The driver yells curses as he sits stunned, both arrows narrowly missing him, and taking hold in the bench besides him.

The goblin charging towards Gareth never sees the arrow that rips into its spine; the ugly thing can hardly let out a gasp as its corpse lands at the fighter's feet. Undeterred by his companion's quick death the second goblin moves to engage Colten, takes a quick swipe with his blade (which Colten easily knocks to the side), and quickly darts back out of harm's way.

Determined to hit their target this time around both of the archers pop their heads up above the thickets and take aim at the cart. The driver, still stunned, yells "shiiii" but doesn't get a chance to finish as two arrows hit him square in the chest. Letting out quick victorious yelps both goblins duck back into the thickets attempting to hide, but one of them is still clearly visible.

The goblin archer, still stinging from Luka's attack watches Gareth's approach with mouth agape. Without even attempting to flee the little creature raises his bow in an attempt to block Gareth's blade but it does little good. The goblin's dead where he stood.

Kai's attempt at stabilizing the cart driver fails, both of the arrows hitting vital spots on the poor man.

The last goblin, having seen quite enough, is heard retreating through the thickets north of the road.

While Colten does not find any tracks it does appear that this site has been used as an ambush site for quite some time. The thickets to the north of the road making convenient cover for archers and several avenues of approach have been cleared for melee attackers to move forward.

There is a trail hidden behind the thickets as well which appears to head off to the north east.

Gareth raises an eyebrow. Are you suggesting we search him? That doesn't seem right.
Jun 25, 2016 6:30 am
Luka bites her finger in thought, and scans the area for a moment. We can't pull a wagon full of supplies through a forest. Hmmm. I propose we hide the wagon off the road, and we go after the goblin. We hide our supplies for later, and go investigate if they did indeed take prisoners; one of which might be Gundren.

"Steal from the dead? Do I look like a grave-robber to you?" A flash of anger appears on Colten's face, but only for an instant before it turned cold as ice. "I will let you do whatever you wish with the dead. But if you insult me in that manner again, Kai, I will act to preserve my honor."

P-please friends, the more we talk, the more Gundren's life is at risk. Let us seek out the goblin, and then, we return to our supplies, and head to Phandalin as instructed.

Colten says nothing more. With his hand resting casually on his sword hilt, the nobleman stalks off towards the hidden trail towards the north east, but still remaining in earshot.
Jun 25, 2016 10:39 pm
Kai clears a spot in the back of the wagon and lays the drivers body in it then covering it with a blanket I mean no insult young one in my experience the worst of mankind has come from those who call themselves noble... Kai takes a calming breath and turns to the Colten I truly mean no offense I should not let me past dictate my future relationships; I apologize sir Coltan

Gareth walks towards the dead driver. I'll search him if no one else will. He points a finger at each individual. But I will not pocket anything that does not pertain to our current situation. Agreed? The noble crouches to the dead man. Poor man. It is a shame that an individual had to get killed becuase of a situation like this. He takes his hand and closes the dead man's eyes. Peace be with you friend. May you find what you need in the afterlife. After saying his prayer, he removes the blanket and searches the man.

If they are headed back to their base or camp or whatevrr they call it, they should still be there when we are finished. It wouldn't take long and it's the least we can do for him. It would be disrespectful to do otherwise.

As jolly as always I check my pack and pat my dagger. I make grabs at my beard till I look satisfied and nod to my self again. "Alright boys lets find our lost friend, who knows a good dwarven toon we can all sing. Humm, how about a song of the halls for Mithral Hall. Oh my favorite song about Upsen Downs." I wait a moment and start looking at each of the party for a confirmation on the song they should all sing. While I'm doing this, I'm falling in line second from the back making sure to keep someone in front and behind me.

Gareth takes lead behind Colten as has left ahead of the rest of the group.How can a man of such power takes things so personally? Not all things spoken are necessarily a negative. Maybe I should talk to him. After all, anyone who would have heard an i.dividual talking about searching a body would have come to a conclusion it was for monetary gain. Bah, I'll leave him be.
Jun 27, 2016 4:23 am
"Ah Kai as always your so very wise true. Well if we by chance want to change our stategy I have a jolly good toon." I, without noticing it, start humming the tune to a melody at the sound of a whisper. Waiting for the party to start its search I stroke my beard.
Jun 27, 2016 7:54 am
Colten eyes Kai for a moment, his face expressionless as he fingered the blade on his hip. After a long pause, he unbuckles his belt and hands his rapier to the monk.

"Here. Be careful with it." The young noble said flatly. It's probably worth more than you.

With that, Colten takes out his skin of fine wine and takes a long sip. Offering the skin to Gareth, he asks, "Want some?"

Luka gives a smile and sigh. Happy that the party is working together well. Holding her holy symbol fondly, she keeps pace with the party.

Kai with deft hands take hold of the blade. It is truly a fine sword. With the blade in hand he goes to work quickly pulling a vial of strange liquid from his pouch. Even though it has been almost 15 years since he has worked this craft, Kai swiftly coated the blade in the liquid then coats the blade with a thin layer of wax. The hole process took only a min then Kai slipped the blade in to Coltens sheath. When next we face battle you will find that your blade will have a much greater bite. Kai extends the blade and sheath back to Colten. Again i'm sorry for my word. After doing this Kai seemed to stand taller, almost as if he where a different man. He carried him self not as some old healer with herbs, but as something much more dangerous. I will cover you from the side of the, road lead us on.

Colten shrugs at Gareth's decline. Without a pause, he offers his skin of fine wine to Kai, smiling as he takes his rapier back from the monk.

"For your services, sir." The nobleman says with a nod to the monk. "Have a sip, you don't find wine like this around here."

Kai takes a small sip nods ands and slips into the wood
Jun 27, 2016 10:10 pm
Having secured the wagon and oxen the group sets off along the newly discovered trail in search of Gundren. Colten, in the lead, sets a conservative pace as Delg entertains (or annoys, depending) everyone with songs of the grandeur of the legendary Mithral Hall. After about ten minutes of moving along the trail the nobleman suddenly comes to a stop as he feels his foot catch on something along the ground.

Colten feels something catch underfoot, but maintains the poise of a nobleman, even when silently seething and holding his wine-skin. As the snare snaps into the air, the young man simply pauses and smiles the failed trap.

"Good try. But I am better." Colten says proudly.

Deftly avoiding having his foot caught in the snare Colten watches as the empty trap springs harmlessly into the air. With an abundance of confidence he motions to the others to continue on. The heavily traveled trail continues to the north west and after another couple of miles of travel Colten stops the group and points to the ground in front of him.

A hastily covered pit trap has been constructed along the path that each member of the party easily bypasses before continuing along the trail finally arriving at a large cave in a hillside five miles from the scene of the ambush. A shallow stream flows out of the cave mouth, which is screened on the far side by dense briar thickets. A narrow dry path leads into the cave on the opposite side of the stream.

Luka looks around the opening of the cave. It could be very dark inside, friends. Can anyone her see in the dark. I can. She turns to her compatriots.
Jun 28, 2016 2:05 am
I have torches with me. I suggest whoever can see in the dark goes in front. The one taking the rear can hold one of the torches. Does anyone have a bo,w crossbow, or can control the arcane who cannot see? This way we can determine who will hold the torch. I for one know only a minimal number of spells, a light hammer, and my blade. If necessary, I'll take the rear so I can still use my sword while the others can use two hands if they need to.
Jun 28, 2016 2:12 am
"While I can evade most attacks, I cannot see in the dark." Colten said with certainty, "Without a shield, I am more vulnerable. If someone could kindly hold a torch for me, I can better guard the rest of you."

"If you will, my lady, please cast your spell on my shield." Colten raises his buckler slightly, directing the request to Luka. "That way I can be further forward without choreographing my swordplay to our enemies.

Jun 28, 2016 3:55 am
"Wouldn't you think in a dark place like this a torch might draw arrows to us. Perhaps there is a way we could see without illuminating our entire party?" I hold my hand out for the torch seeing if they're willing to give to me.
Jun 28, 2016 4:02 am
"Very well. I will stay behind until a worthy fight comes. Until then, I will try my best to follow you in the dark." Colten said.

No need to insist on anything. There will be plenty of fighting to go around, I am sure.

Heading over to the far side of the stream to access the dry trail that leads inward you notice that a small area of the thickets has been hollowed out to form a lookout. Wooden planks flatten out the briars and provide room for guards to lie hidden and watch the area. Fortunately for your group the two goblins stationed here are terrible at their job. As you each cross the stream you can hear the heated bickering between the two of them.
OOC:
The first two in the marching order have a clear view of the goblins who are little more than five feet away.

Jumping from the bushes Kai is on one of the goblins before either can react and smacks it hard with the flat of his blade. It turns, stunned look on his face, as it reaches for its scimitar.

Not to be outdone, Colten moves quickly to attack the second goblin and slips his blade between the creature's ribs before it's even aware of the nobleman's presence. With a pathetic little yelp it drops to the ground dead.

Plus, we found evidence to believe a friend of ours is missing. My name is Gareth. He offers his hand slowly with a smile. My friends and I are looking for him. I deeply apologize for us breaking into your home but he means worlds to us and we truly wish not to harm anyone. Putting his other hand on his chin. Gareth thinks for a second. I'll tell you what. If you help us out in here to find our friend, I will personally allow you to live at my homestead. Acres of land, fancy clothes, pretty women, mountains of food to eat and many shiny things to stare at. On top of that, you and I can be friends and I will personally look out for you. He takes five gold out of his pocket and puts it into the goblins hand. Just some proof so hopefully you'll trust me. What do you say? Will you help us, be my friend, and live a life of luxury?

The goblin's eyes widen at the sight of the gold and the 'too good to be true' offer that Gareth has just presented. He nods his head up and done as fast as he can and blurts "I will help! I will help!!"

"King Grol is the king of our tribe, the Cragmaw Tribe." he says, chest puffing out with pride. "He ordered Klarg, the cave leader, to look out for the dwarf and capture him. We then sent the dwarf and all of his gear to Grol in his castle, we kept the human though."

He suddenly stops and stares at the ground, "...humans make good food...."

This conversation was all in goblinese, of course, but I'll assume Gareth is passing on the gist of the conversation to the others. Also, I'm really glad someone in the party speaks goblin, keeps me from having to write "me do this, me kill that" in broken common. :-)

Still a bit nervous after mentioning the human, the goblin, still staring at the ground says, "Not yet. Once guards who took dwarf to Grol return then we are supposed to feast. Human is still alive in the cave."

He pauses for a second and then looks up at Gareth.

"My name is Puck."

My standard way of coming up with names is to translate very non-creative names to Hungarian. Apparently, though, the translation of 'goblin' is 'kobold' which won't work. So you get 'Puck' instead. :-)

Breaking back into broken Common in order to answer Kai, "Puck just cave guard, more mean goblins take human into eating cave. Many other Cragmaw goblins inside." Puck brings his bound hands up in front of him and spreads his spindly fingers out, of which he has four on the left hand and a full five on the right.

"This many!" he says before closing his hands and repeating the gesture "Maybe this many more too."

"Well, maybe this "Klarg" is a worthy opponent." Colten muttered under-breath. "Shall we get going then? We have a feast to interrupt, after all."

In Goblin: Alright, Puck, my friend. If you help us through, I promise I will protect you and show you luxury. I can even provide you education. You could become the smartest and wisest goblin through studying. Ready to help us? Gareth gives the goblin a warm smile. Working with many goblins, I can tell this one is a victim of circumstance. The group he is with leads him to eat others of intelligence, they lack the ability to speak tru common, and this group also seems to be very barbaric. Puck will learn and he will become one of the greatest members of our society.

With Kai and Puck taking the lead the group works its way along the narrow dry path on the side of the stream and enters into the cave. Just inside the cave mouth a few uneven stone steps lead up to a small, dank chamber on the east side of the passage. The cave narrows to a steep fissure at the far end, and is filled with the stench of animals. Savage snarls and the sounds of rattling chains greet your ears where three wolves are chained up just inside the opening. Each wolf's chain leads to an iron rod driven into the base of a stalagmite.

"Doggies for fighting" Puck whispers to Kai before holding his hands up to the wolves trying to calm them. "Goooood doggies!! Good doggies!!" he pleas, but the wolves continue to carry on, straining against their chains.

Gareth steps forward speaking loud enough for Kai to hear him but not loud enough for his voice to echo. Kai, wait. Allow me. Kneeling down away from the wolves, he looks at the wolf in the middle and speaks to it. We don't mean to alarm you. We mean you no harm. Evrything is okay. You are safe now. Can you let the wolves know that they are safe in our presence? If you trust us, we will set you free and you won't have to deal with fighting for the goblins anymore and you can live at your own free will. You can start a family and have puppies. With two fingers on his temple he concentrates on the poor animal.

Jul 2, 2016 11:43 pm
Gareth half turns his head to Colten, feeling a bit irked. I have a feeling these creatures have been mistreated. As much as I'm sure they would like a vite out of those that have beaten them, I am sure they would rather run free then be chained like a prisoner. No creature with two, four, or even a thousand legs should be treated like this. Puck, how are these wolves treated? Do they get hit alot by their masters?

The group moves out of the wolves' den and back onto the narrow path that runs along the east side of the stream. What little light had been available when you first entered the cave all but disappears as the main passage from the cave mouth climbs steeply upward, the stream plunging and splashing down its west side. In the shadows a side passage leads west across the other side of the stream.

Carefully opening the hood of the lantern so as to let his eyes adjust to the brightness Puck points to the passage way across the stream. "Told you. Tough climb." The passage is choked with rubble and consists of two steep escarpments separated by a perilous looking ledge.

Those who haven't already seen the bridge notice that in the shadows of the ceiling to the north you can just make out the dim shape of a rickety bridge of wood and rope crossing over the passage ahead of you. Another passage intersects this one, twenty feet above the stream. The bridge isn't empty and all of you notice the goblin clumsily sneaking along to your right.

While the traversing up the steep passage is slow-going everyone is able to keep their footing solid. Just before reaching the top, the unmistakable flickering of fire can be seen as it casts long dancing shadows on the walls. Lowering the hood on your lantern you work to the top of the passage and discover the source of the fire. In a large cave, which is divided in half by a ten foot high escarpment, are five goblins who are tending to a cooking fire.

The air is disgusting, hazy with the smoke from the fire and pungent from the smell of poorly cured hides and unwashed goblins. Puck, obviously not affected by the smell, breathes in deep.
OOC:
The goblins are unaware of your presence as they tend to the fire.

Colten and Kai do their best to sneak into position but to no avail. One of the goblins, frying some foul looking piece of meat over the fire, notices them both straight away. He yells out something in his native tongue ("Intruders" to those who know goblin) and each of the goblins quickly reach for weapons. Two of them start to back away from the fire while three move forward, scimitars ready.

As soon as the goblins start to move Delg and Luka each jump into action. Luka's crossbow bolt misses one of the goblins charging in, but Delg's spell find a target, causing one of the bow wielding goblins to curse out in pain. Also quick to react is Colten, who moves ahead with his rapier leading the way, only to miss his attack as the thick smoke burns his eyes.

The entire lower chamber suddenly turns into a din filled mess as three goblins charge in striking wildly but with little effect other than a lucky hit on Kai who takes a fairly decent slash across his chest. [7HP to Kai] The other two uglies fire off their bows and both Delg and Gareth hear the tell tale 'woosh' as arrows fly just feet away.

Puck, clearly unhappy that his buddy Kia has been wounded, rushes at his attacker. "Die, Slopknit!" he screams in broken common, possibly for the party's benefit, and catches the unsuspecting goblin right in the throat with his scimitar. A look of betrayal on his face, Slopknit stares at Puck before collapsing on the ground.

Even wounded Kai is able to finish off what Delg has started as he puts an arrow into one of the goblins on the far side of the fire; dropping him face forward to the ground.

Luka, Delg, and Gareth are up.

Colten easily skewers his opponent, running his blade clean through the goblin's chest. Falling back off of the blade he screams "Yeemik" as he collapses to the ground. The two goblins that are left continue their attacks, with one taking a swing at Luka and the other firing an arrow at Gareth. While the arrow intended for Gareth flies wide, Luka's attacker catches the cleric in the arm. [4HP]


The ever loyal Puck rushes to engage Luka's attacker but appears to be a little frightened as he blade misses and strikes the ground.

With Delg's fingers behaving as they ought to, the firebolt zips through the air and catches the goblin archer right in the forehead. He quickly drops his bow and starts slapping at his now flame engulfed head. Knees buckling, the goblin falls into a smoldering heap on the ground.

Wielding his blade, Gareth moves to attack the last standing goblin when he suddenly stops and looks towards the ledge that separates the large cavern. Kneeling on the edge is a very weak looking man with perhaps the largest goblin any of you have ever seen standing directly behind him. "Enough" he growls as he grabs the man by the hair. "Truce, or human dies!"

"Truce... Trade... either way. You do something for me and this one goes free."

"Here is the thing. You are not Grol. You are not Klarg." Colten's green eyes narrow at the large goblin, "You are fat, ugly, and heavily outnumbered. You are however a little smarter than the rest, so let me enlighten you: kill the human, and I promise you a slow and painful death. Leave him alone, and you get out of here alive."

Yeemik bristles a bit when Colten mentions Klarg, but otherwise gives very little clue as to what may be going through his tiny little brain. He calls out to the last remaining goblin, ordering him sheath his blade. "Me and Magor stay here with human. You and you friends bring Klarg's head to Yeemik and we let human go. We even leave cave, no longer ambush people on trail. We go back to castle."

He looks to Colten, "Deal, human?"

Colten returns his blade into its scabbard, seeing that the goblins were now non-hostile. The nobleman grins at the large goblin and gives a slight nod of acknowledgement.

"So, mighty Yeemik wishes to be king." The nobleman states, "I don't see why you need to involve this poor human at all. Even without you asking, we will kill Klarg. All you need to do is leave this cave for a few days and come back when the dust settles. Your throne will be waiting for you, your majesty."

Luka watches the back and forth arguing, and sees things getting worse. She bites her nails, and steps forward. Wait! I will trade places with that man! She points towards Sildar, and places a hand on her chest. That man is severely wounded, and important to us. I'm a cleric, and would be of more value to you then him. I propose we take that man into our care, we go take care of this "Klarg," and then I go with you.

Watching Kai tend to Sildar's wounds, she speaks to Sildar, Excuse me, sir, but do you also know where Gundren Rockseeker might be?
Jul 25, 2016 12:42 am
"I believe I might, Ma'am" Sildar answers, looking about the room, before heading over to the stairs. "Gundren and his brothers believe they have located the entrance to the long-lost Wave Echo Cave, which is the site of the Phandelver Mines. Those mines could certainly bring a lot of the prosperity to the region."

Reaching the top of the stairs the man looks about a bit before his eyes widen, "AHA! I was hoping my belonging were still here." He walks quickly, with a barely noticeable limp, to a pile in the corner and retrieves his weapons and some of his personal belongings. "Someone who goes by the name of 'Black Spider' apparently found out that Rockseekers had found the entrance. As far as I was able to discern while held here is that a bugbear named 'Klarg' runs this cave and works for this Black Spider. He had ordered Klarg to capture us and send poor Gundren to someplace call 'Cragmaw Castle'."

"He speaks true!" Puck blurts out. "Klarg rule this cave, work for Black Spider."

Somewhat taken aback, Sildar gives Luka a quizzical look. "A friend of yours?"

Colten, while searching Yeemik, finds a dagger which appears to be in surprisingly good shape, 3gp, 12sp, and an old iron key.
Jul 25, 2016 1:23 am
"Hey, there is three gold, twelve silver and a key here." Colten said, removing those items from Yeemik's corpse. "And a decent knife too, but I doubt it is better than what I have, so help yourselves to everything. As for the goblin, he is with Gareth."
Jul 25, 2016 2:24 am
leave it to nobles to steal from the dead Kai shakes his head pushing the thought from his mind might we take a short rest to gather our thoughts on what we should do next if we have all the information perhaps we should take care of this kalrg so he can bring no more harm to the area
OOC:
kai is sitting at 3 health and would like to tend to his wounds and needs a short rest to do so
Jul 25, 2016 7:03 am
Luka nods along. Sir Hallwinter, would you happen to know of the location of this castle, or even this Black Spider's location? Also, what are we to do about that bugbear. He will surely continue to terrorize the road we traveled.
OOC:
A rest would be great. Also I believe I'm out of spells until a long rest, so I've only got my Cantrips.
Jul 25, 2016 10:50 pm
"Unfortunately, I know very little of the personalities involved with any of this other than what I've mentioned" Sildar says as he finds himself a location along the wall to sit and rest for a bit. "Certainly one of the fiends in this cave may know something about the location of the castle" he says motioning towards Puck.

Taking out a bit of tobacco from his pack, Sildar carefully packs a pipe, "I think you're right, friend, about the continues harassment of travelers along the trail. It won't stop until this cave has been cleared." He leans back along the wall, lights his pipe, and makes the group an offer.

"Help me clear this cave and escort me to Phandalin and I'll see that you're all handsomely rewarded for your trouble. I have business to attend to there, but as I'm late already, we may as well do some good while we're here."
Jul 25, 2016 10:51 pm
"Puck just guard, heard of castle, don't know how to get there."

"Seeing that everyone is in need of rest, this place is as good as any." Colten said, scanning the room. "I hope everyone brought their own bedding, because I pity the fool who who is stuck with one of those."
Jul 26, 2016 2:25 am
Sit at ease lads I'll keep an eye out. I stand so I can see down the cavern a ways. As I sit down I keep up the act of only being able to see in the light.
Jul 26, 2016 2:43 am
Tapping his pipe on the ground Sildar looks over the party, "You all seem to have me at a bit of a disadvantage" he says with a smile as he rises to his feet.

"I should, at the very least, know the names of those who saved my life."
OOC:
Feel free to introduce yourselves (or not) and ask any last questions before heading out to clear the cave (if that's what you'd like to do). Also take any 'Short Rest' actions that you're capable of - using hit die to recover HP and whatnot.

"Name's Colten, of House Duveau." The nobleman said as he found a spot to sit. He leaves the coin, key and knife in a neat pile next to Yeemik's corpse, as promised.
Jul 26, 2016 4:15 am
Why I'm Delg, and I ain't one for leaving good coin go to waste on a corpse of a nasty goblin. I walk over and pick up the coin. Hehehe not all of us are rich noble folk. Though this key might be thee one to open a prisoners shackles?

"It's my pleasure to meet each of you" Sildar says after the all of the introductions.

He draws his sword from it sheath and gives it a few tentative swings, testing his wounds. "I'm eager to get to our task, assuming that you're all willing to help, of course. Either way, I believe we should get moving!"

"Sure, it smells like dung in here." Colten drew out his wine skin for another sip. That just made everything better.

Before leaving, the nobleman takes a glance around the room for anything they may have missed, treasure or otherwise.

"Water trap in room over the bridge, Klarg and his favorites, that it!"

Good as any time to save our friend. Lets go lads. Keeping the lantern in the mage hand at arms reach away, off and ready to relight.
Jul 30, 2016 12:25 am
"Ok, we go now!" Puck says as he slowly leads the group over the bridge with Sildar, still limping a bit, bringing up the rear. As you enter the tunnel on the other side of the bridge the unmistakable sound of running water can be heard, getting louder with every step closer the group takes. Puck motions for everyone to stop and quietly moves back to Delg. "Cover your lantern, I'll go see who's there."

With the lantern covered the little goblin darts ahead into the darkness before quickly returning. "Three in there, what we do now?"

"I can get goblins here. You be ready!" Puck says as he sheaths his sword and saunters over to the cavern entrance. "Hey!" he yells in his native tongue, "Who dropped all of this gold in the hallway??"

With a wide grin on his ugly little face, the goblin scurries back to join the rest of you, "They be here any second!" he whispers excitedly as he readies his bow. Sure enough you can all hear the scrambling of feet as three goblins round the corner the and stop dead in their tracks when the find they're not alone.

The simple plan gets chaotic quickly; Kai's arrow and Delg's bolt of fire both miss as the two remaining goblins dodge the incoming attacks. "Traitor!!" one of the little creatures screams as Puck lets loose with an arrow of his own, grazing the further goblin's ear, but doing no real damage.

Kai's arrow finds its target and puts a nasty gash in one of the little creature's upper arm. "Yow!!" it screams, turning to run back from where it came. As Kai lowers his bow he feels the whip of Puck's arrow fling by as it strikes the last goblin square in the forehead, dropping it straight back onto the floor with a soft thud.

"What you guys do without Puck?" he says with pride.

The last remaining goblin runs for his life, fleeing through the pool filled cavern and up a flight of stairs on the southern part of room.

The wolf proves an allusive foe, first dodging Colten's blade before ducking under Luka's bolt. His luck doesn't hold, however, as Kai's arrow strikes the wolf in the hip. Without even letting out the smallest of yelps, the wolf bares it teeth and stares down the nobleman.

Sildar, standing directly before one of his torturers doesn't hesitate to exact a little revenge, swinging his longsword effortlessly towards the stunned little creature. The sight of the sword bearing down on him snaps the goblin to attention and he manages to step to the side just as the blade swings by.

As you all make your attacks on the elusive wolf, two more goblins rush in between the distracted Colten and Sildar. Colten swipes out at the nearest goblin as they two rush by, but is unable to connect. They immediately spot Puck and scream cute goblin obscenities in his general direction as they charge in on the traitor. Not willing to go down without a fight the ever calm Puck draws back on his bow only to have the string snap. Throwing the useless weapon to the side Puck reaches for his scimitar but before it's completely free from its scabbard the two baddies are on him, ruthlessly slicing into him with their blades.

Having finished their task they turn and look for other victims as a booming voice echoes through the cavern. "That's how we handle traitors!!" Klarg yells from the entrance, morning star slung over his shoulder.

Emboldened by the sight of their leader, the first goblin continues his attack on Sildar, taking another slash which connects with the old soldier, causing him to scream out in rage. "That's it for you, you pathetic little creature!"

Ripper manages to once again avoid being stabbed by by a flurry of jabs from Colten's rapier, ducking and shifting his weight almost in rhythm with the nobleman's attacks. With a growl Ripper leaps forward and plunges his fangs into Colten's forearm, frantically shaking his head to and fro, tearing into flesh. [Colten takes 5HP of damage]

As Luka screams out at Puck's demise, Kai is able to expertly launch a vial of acid at the poor goblin's executioners. Striking one of the evil creatures on the face the vial shatters splattering its contents over him and his companion. Both yell out as bits of flesh start to melt away but neither appears ready to give up the fight as they each turn towards Kai.

Taking in the situation from his position on the stairs Klarg looks to his right to see his former prisoner battling with one of the cave goblins. "Ah, a rescue attempt, is it?" Nearly trampling Sildar's attacker as he rushes forward Klarg lifts his weapon and brings it down hard on the man's shoulder causing an audible crunch. Despite the numbing pain shooting through his arm Sildar manages to lift his sword to swipe back at the bugbear. With a laugh Klarg knocks the blade aside with ease.

Aug 7, 2016 4:43 pm
Raising his weapon into the air in preparation for his next attack the big bugbear's eyes suddenly widen. He looks at Sildar and starts to chuckle. "Humans are soooo funny looking!!" he yells lowering his arms to his side while leaning forward at the waist, looking Sildar eye to eye. Lowering his voice he whispers between chuckles, "You know what's really funny looking though? Goblins!", he turns on his heels and motions to his puzzled companions. "My minions are just the ugliest little creatures I've ever seen!!!" he yells before starting to laugh uncontrollably.

He drops his morning star and falls to the ground, rolling onto his back, laughing and yelling about what ugly, stupid creatures goblins are.

Undeterred by their leader's behavior the goblins continue their assault with the one closest to Sildar yelling, "What you do to Klarg, Human" before slashing the soldier in the side with his scimitar. Screaming in pain Sildar slumps to the ground unconscious.

The pain of acid still stinging their skin the two recipients of Kai's attack turn towards the rogue and charge in. Their scimitar's still wet with Puck's blood they work in unison against their attacker and one of them manages to land a solid blow, slashing Kai across the chest. [8HP to Kai]

Despite the rapid and fluid counter attack, the goblin is able to jump back just enough to avoid the tip of Kia's sword. "Burn my skin, me kill you!" he yells readying his next attack.

A loud yelp echoes throughout the cavern as Colten's blade penetrates through the front of the Ripper's chest, skewering the animal length wise. Ripper pants, taking his last breaths as Colten extracts his rapier.
Aug 7, 2016 6:53 pm
Seeing that the wolf will no longer interrupt his duel, Colten moves to the laughing bugbear's side.

"Get up." He said with a flat tone."Get up and fight, or I'll skewer you to the ground."

Klarg stops laughing as the nobleman stands above him threatening the bugbear with his rapier. He lifts his head from the ground and props himself up on his elbows. "SKEWER!!!" he yells as he once again breaks into uncontrollable laughter, rolling back and forth on the ground, "Skewer, skewer, skewer!"

The goblin closest to Klarg puts his hand on his hips as he watches the spectacle unfold. Unfortunately for the little creature he doesn't hear the gasp from Sildar who has regained consciousness. Struggling to get to his feet, the old man manages to raise his sword above his head only to bring it down hard into the ground, not even close to his intended target.

Delg is up, then the goblins.

The stunned goblin jumps as Sildar's sword smashes into the ground besides him. Quickly turning he reaches for his scimitar looking to finish the old man off once and for all only to get smashed in the back of the head with a bolt of fire. Without a sound the goblin launches forward and sprawls to the ground face first.

Still cursing at Kai as the acid continues to burn into their skin the last two goblins continue their attack, savagely cutting into the rogue as he drops unconscious to the ground.

Luka and Colten are up - going to need a death roll from Kai as well.

"Very well, die laughing." Colten said with eyes narrowed. Inhaling deeply, the nobleman lanced forward with his sword in quick succession, quicker than anything he has done before. The glint of his rapier was a blur, too fast for the eye to follow.

The bolt of fire flies wide of its target but does snap the last goblin into the reality of the situation. His boss, rolling on the floor laughing for some unknown reason, is out of the fight, all of his companions have been killed, and he's heavily outnumbered. Like a child having a tantrum the little creature throws his weapon and shield to the ground and starts stomping around in a circle. "Should never join Klarg! Bad leader!!"

Sildar, still standing by the bugbear that had ordered his kidnapping and that had stood and laughed as his goblin underlings had beat and tortured him, dismisses all sense of honor and raises his sword. With a loud yell he lifts the blade up over his head only to fall straight backward, landing on his ass. "Guess I'm in worse shape than I thought" he reluctantly admits.

"FUNNY HUMAN!!!" Klarg yells at the sight of Sildar falling backwards. "HE FALL DOWN!!!"


Luka, Kai (death throw), and Colten are up.

Colten holds his blade down-turned to deliver another blow at Klarg. If Puck lived, or if he was not bitten by a stupid wolf, he may be laughing as well. Unfortunately, the nobleman was in no mood for humor. Aiming the tip of his sword at the bugbear's chin, Colten plunges his blade down.

Charging the tantrum throwing goblin Luka takes a hefty swing at the creature but before her mace can make contact the nimble goblin ducks down, rolls to the right, and from his knees throws his hands in the air. "GIVE UP!! GIVE UP!!"

Having had enough of Klarg's laughter Colten puts a final end to it, slipping the tip of his rapier under the bugbear's chin, and plunging it deep into his neck. Klarg doesn't even struggle as he quickly bleeds out.

With the battle apparently over the sound of the falling water echoes throughout the cavern, occasionally interrupted by a loud groan from an unconscious Kai. Sildar, exhausted and heavily wounded sits on the ground, legs straight out in front of him. "Someone should look after your friend" he suggest, weakly motioning towards Kai, before he lays back exhausted and stares at the ceiling.
OOC:
The goblin is surrendering, all of the other baddies are dead, and Kai is dying (2 of 3 failed death throws). Any two of you can attempt to stabilize him before I'll ask for another death roll. (If someone has 'Spare the Dying' that would work as well). There is one last room in the caves to explore (the one that Klarg charged out of).
Aug 11, 2016 2:01 am
Aye Kai you brave, but bravery only last while the blood is still in your body. I walk over to Kai and kneel now next to him is there anyone who can help him. I'm not good with people when their blood is leaking from there body but I'm willing to help who ever is more experienced.
Aug 11, 2016 7:20 pm
Luka lets out a large breath, and puts her things away. Now I can work. Excuse me. She kneels down next to Kai, and uses "Spare the Dying"
Aug 11, 2016 8:00 pm
Colten took a forlorn look at Puck, then at the bugbear and wolf at his feet, then let out a sigh. What a waste of life, and to think they want to be equals, with me? Lighting a torch, he wanders off into the last room, Klarg's room, on his own.

Colten does a quick check of what Klarg has on his person, then walks into the next room to see what's in there.

As the energy flows through Luka and into her patient Kai lets out a loud groan and starts to breath in a more rhythmic pattern. For now he's out of any immediate danger. Not finding anything of note on Klarg, Colten lights up a torch and ascends the stairs into the next cavern.

In the middle of the cavern is a fire pit, coals still glowing red hot, with hunks of meat in various states of preparation. There's a natural chimney off to Colten's right, and a piles of sacks and crates throughout the place. A closer search through the supplies reveals that most are marked with the image of a blue lion, the symbol of the Lionshield Coster, a well known merchant company with a trading post and warehouse in Phandalin.

Digging a little deeper into the supplies Colten finds a chest hidden under several sacks of grain.

Colten wordlessly moves to the chest and checks to see if it opens.

I have a feeling that the key that dwarf picked up fits here, but let's take a look.
Aug 12, 2016 3:42 am
With a quick check of the chest Colten discovers that it has been left unlocked. Lifting the lid he finds:

600cp
110sp
Two vials of red liquid
And a jade statuette of a frog with tiny golden orbs for eyes
OOC:
At this point the cave has been cleared (other than the goblin that has surrendered). Everyone earns 275XP (for a total of 350) which means everyone gets to level up once the goblin has been dealt with and the party decides on its course of action after they've rested.
Aug 12, 2016 4:12 am
"Not even a single piece of gold? These bandits are terrible at their job." Colten said aloud, his voice echoing in the chamber. He takes another look around at the Lionshield Coster merchandise then rejoins the rest of the group.

"Well, I think that's the last room here. There is a chest of coin, a couple small vials of red liquid, and a pretty jade frog. There is also a pile of supplies that be belong to the Lionshield Coster." Colten crouches next to Klarg's corpse. He sees to contemplate whether or not he should further dirty his blade, before setting to work on cutting off the bugbear's head.
Aug 12, 2016 5:28 am
Kai looks to his master master what are you doing here his master waves his hand Kai it is not your time yet Kai lowers his head master im Kai master steps forward KAi! you must go the master thrust his hand forward slaming it into Kai chest Kai goes flying backward leaving the vision behind him. hands seemed to be griping him pulling him farther and farther away from. Kai could feel the cool stone floor as he opened his eyes he could see luka's face and the aura of magic about her thank you
Aug 12, 2016 5:35 am
Perhaps Kai, you stab them more than they stab you. standing I walk over to Colten. Find any thing good in here? seeing what content has I cast detect magic and look around the room for any magic sources.
Aug 12, 2016 8:32 am
Luka put one of her hands on her chest, and wiped sweat from her brow with the other. With a large sigh, Oh thank you, Suna.
Aug 12, 2016 3:16 pm
Looking over the open chest Delg notices that both of the red vials give off a magical aura, but nothing else in either of the two rooms appears to be enhanced in any way.

The lone goblin has finally finished his tantrum and notices that no one in particular is paying attention to him. Ducking into some shadows he slinks off towards the bridge.
OOC:
Everyone can take a perception check to see if they can detect the goblin moving. Everyone should also level up at this point, for your HPs you can either roll or take the average value (+CON Modifier) for you hit dice. Either way, specify your option in the character creation thread. You should also discuss what the party plans on doing next.

Colten was not paying attention to the goblin, and was otherwise uninterested to the little creature. He was overall disappointed with the whole experience today, as none of the foes proved challenging. . . except for a stupid ledge. Cutting through the neck of a bugbear proved to be a more difficult experience than he anticipated, but his persistence eventually prevailed.

"What is the next part of the plan, Master Whitehill?"
Colten casually crouched next to the older gentleman. Klarg's head hit the floor with a wet plop. "To Phandalin? Perhaps we can bring back some of the things that Klarg took?"
Aug 14, 2016 12:42 am

Ignoring Colten's faux pas with regards to his last name, Sildar looks up at the nobleman and says, "First off, I think we should rest. While not the most hospital place I've ever spent time in, I think this cave is as good a place as any. I would like to head to Phandalin, as I have some business to attend to there, and if you are all willing to escort me on the trip, I can secure 50 pieces of gold for your trouble."

Taking a wineskin from his pack, he shakes it a bit only to discover it's empty. He tosses it to the side, "Damned beasts!"
Aug 14, 2016 3:32 am
"Here. Enjoy." Colten said hesitantly, holding his own wine skin at Sildar. While he was not exactly happy to part with his diminishing skin of fine wine, Sildar needed it more right now.

With that, the nobleman left the group again to sniff around the Lionshield supplies for more wine.

"Many thanks, good sir" Sildar nods to Colten as he takes a few drinks from the wineskin. "If there are goods belonging to Lionshield Coster in these caves I'm sure they'd be willing to pay for their recovery" he suggests as Colten goes off to search the goods for some more wine.

The captured items in Klarg's cavern are bulky and Colten determines that a wagon will be necessary to move them. After a bit of searching he does find a small cask of wine, but unfortunately its not a very food vintage.
OOC:
Kai would have to roll for each character that he wants to heal, spending one use of his healer's kit each time. Alternatively you can all just take a long rest and recover 100% of your HP (which is what I'm going to assume is happening unless I hear otherwise).

At this point I need to know what the party would like to do. You have an abandoned wagon that you left on the trail, stolen items that you can recover for possible profit, continue your search for Gundren (although you don't know the location of Cragmaw Castle), escort Sildar to Phandalin, so forth, and so on.
Aug 16, 2016 3:32 am
"Ugh, this is undrinkable." Colten says after tasting the wine, almost immediately regretting his donation to Sildar. But, what is done is done, and cannot be undone. Such is true especially for a nobleman. Disappointed with his find, he returns the plug into the cask and hauls it out of the cave.

"Unless one of you know where the damned castle is, our guide is dead, and we have no way of finding it." Colten declares, "My vote is that we go back to Phandalin with Master Whi-Hallwinter to get some coin and return the missing goods."
Aug 16, 2016 3:02 pm
Aye that sound like the right plan. I'm for it.

Back tracking the way that you came you retrieve the wagonload full of provisions that you had left behind and spend the better part of the day easing it along the goblin trail to the cave to load up the Lionshield Coster goods as well. With the heavy lifting done you are back on the Triboar Trail and finally back on your way to Phandalin.
