Maon prays for Ceranus to grant him the Entangle spell to capture the creature in a tangle of roots and vines.

...and may Ceranus take you!

Entangle
(Alteration)
Sphere: Plant
Range: 80 yds.
Components: V, S, M
Duration: 1 turn
Casting Time: 4
Area of Effect: 40-ft. cube
Saving Throw: 1⁄2
By means of this spell, the caster is able to cause plants in the area of effect to entangle creatures within the area. The grasses, weeds, bushes, and even trees wrap, twist, and entwine about the creatures, holding them fast for the duration of the spell. Any creature entering the area is subject to this effect. A creature that rolls a successful saving throw vs. spell can escape the area, moving at only 10 feet per round until out of the area. Exceptionally large (gargantuan) or strong creatures may suffer little or no distress from this spell, at the DM’s option, based on the strength of the entangling
plants.
The material component is the caster’s holy symbol.

Don't know if I did that right. A private message to cowleyc

The idea is to trap the goblin just before the others arrive in the area of effect

As Trina sneaks up on the goblin, she is able to hear some low chanting from Maon behind her. Before she knows it, the very grass and shrubbery begins growing upwards and outwards, seemingly reaching for her and the goblin standing just before her! The goblin jumps to its feet, avoiding the worst of the groping vegetation, and starts trying to make its way through the thick shrubs to escape. However, it is clear that it will take some time, and so the group can quite easily surround the poor goblin who only wished to enjoy a sweet pie.
OOC:
I will need a saving throw vs. spells from Trina to avoid being entangled. 1d20, and you want to roll over your target number.
OOC:

OOC:
Good thing it only lasts 1 turn! Sorry Trina

Trina throws her body against the goblin, grabbing for his legs and hoping to overbear him to the ground.
Nov 2, 2022 5:23 pm
OOC:
@WhtKnt, go ahead and make an Attack roll (AC of 6, so you need a 14) as well as a Save vs Spells.

Trina attempts to avoid the entangling grass and still fell her foe. She avoids the worst of the spell, but the goblin's legs slip from between her arms.
OOC:
The way I rolled is THAC0-1d20, which will give you the AC she hit, 16 in this case.

Rolls

Save vs. spells (14, w/+4 bonus due to race) - (1d20+4)

(17) + 4 = 21

Trina overbearing attempt (THAC0 20) - (20-1d20)

- (4) + 20 = 16

As Trina sneaks up on the goblin, she is able to hear some low chanting from Maon behind her. She has enough time to leap out and take the pitiful creature to the ground, hearing it squeal out in shock! But before she knows it, the very grass and shrubbery begins growing upwards and outwards, seemingly reaching for her and the goblin standing just before her! Both Trina and the goblin are able to avoid the worst of the growing vegetation, and any escape attempts from the goblin will be severely hampered.

Jabrano rushes forward to intercept the goblin in case it gets away from Trina. And almost trips on her face as she makes a sudden stop at the mess of vines and roots that hadn't been there yet when she started running.

Trina seems to have the goblin under control for now. "Are you okay in there?" she asks.

His hand comes up reflexively and Malard slaps his forehead in disbelief. "Whoops!" Malard blurts out. "It was a good idea Maon. I think maybe we can surround them so our quarry can't escape."

Maon walks in unobstructed by the knots of tangled vines and roots. He grabs the goblin by the scruff of the neck and points his scimitar at its back before the spell wears off.

Don't try to escape foul creature. You are an agent of chaos and we've caught you redhanded!!

Grabbo
"Eee," squeals the goblin. "Don't kill me, all I did was eat the pie!" The creature speaks the common tongue surprisingly well. "What do you want with Grabbo?!" He squirms and squirms, but between the vines, halfling, and scimitar, he makes no progress in his escape.
OOC:
Normally druids don't get the ability to walk unimpeded by difficult terrain until level three. But I'll allow it this once.

Oren picks his way forward through the tangle of brambles to reenforce Maon.

"Well played Maon! Let us bind this little thief before it wriggles free."

Oren takes rope from his pack and ties the goblin's hands and feet,

"Well Grabbo, fantastic name by the way, we can play this one of two ways. You can lead us back to your people so we can talk about the river being lowered or we can make you into a pie. What will it be, eh?"

OOC:
Oren, go ahead and make a Reaction roll. 2d10 minus your reaction modifier from Cha.

"Or we can just take him back to the farm, get some sleep, and interrogate him in the morning like civilised people. It's not as if we're going to go anywhere anyway in the middle of the night." Jabrano intervenes, trying to de-escalate the increasingly heated situation, "And we're definitely not killing someone over pie theft!" she added, raising her voice.
OOC:
She has a good look at the goblin (age, clothes, visible weapons, tribal or gang markings etcetera).

"And what if the others notice his absence before morning?" the wizard asks simply.
