Seeing laucain being rather lacklustre in his attempts, Valius shakes his head."Laucain, if I may interject, I see what you're trying to do but I doubt you'll get anything from politeness with a goblin. A show of force ought to get what we need"

He then leaves laucain to do as he wants and begins to search for where the other goblin ran off to.

I walk over to the horse. "While you two fondle around those goblins, I'll be over here doing something productive." I motion for Ruthann to help me as I drag the horses out of the roadway and into the thicket. Once done I will begin with the goblin's bodies.

Rhuthann, you find, two goblin-sized scimitars, 1 goblin-sized bow with 7 goblin-sized arrows, a pouch filled with toenails and fingernails, 3 cp, a boiled egg, and a slightly rotted, half-eaten apple.

The goblin stares up at Laucain with wide eyes, letting out horrible gasps as Mel's sword digs into it
[ +- ] Goblin
It's eyes lull back as it's breathing stops.

Valius, while you don't find the goblin that ran, you do find a trail hidden behind the thicket on the north side of the road that lead northwest. You notice that about a dozen goblins have come and gone along the trail, as well as signs of two human-sized bodies being hauled away from the ambush site.
OOC:
Mel, make a Strength check, with advantage if Ruthann helps you, for moving the horses.

Valius steps out from the brush calling out to his companions.
"Well I think I may know which way they came from. What say we take the head of the hydra? Stop anyone else meeting this fate."

As Ruthann walks over to assist Mel with dragging the horses off the road, he calls out to Laucain, "Did you find out anything useful from our dead friend there?" Ruthann grunts to Mel with exertion, "These horses are heavy." He then checks the last goblin for loot and such as well and returns Mel's sword to her after wiping off the blood.

That was accumulative of the three, they're goblins...they aren't chock-full of loot.

Rolled in my OG post. Hows a 16 work for ya?

OOC:
ok Hypco, sorry! Just didn't want to miss anything. Plus I'm a loot whore in just about any game. I'll try to remember later that when I try to loot that it's not just one guy. Thx!.

The horses are easy enough to move after a couple minutes.
OOC:
No worries Silver. I think it's a given, for most games at least, that you loot all the fallen bodies; simply to avoid the: I loot this guy (okay you find so-and-so), okay now I loot this guy (okay you find so-and-so).
Jun 23, 2017 6:18 pm
After I move the horses and 2 of the goblins I move to the one that had my sword in it. I give it a once over to see if there is any way to give some life so we my talk to it.
OOC:
I'll make a medicine check to see if it is beyond recovery.

Goblins are fragile, weak beings; you know, without more powerful magics, it is gone.

"You can have your weapon back Mel... This one didn't want to talk. I agree with Valius about taking out the hydra. As dangerous as it sounds, the roads would be safer."
Jun 24, 2017 6:07 am
Ruthann says to Laucain, If we decide to try to deal with the goblins or whatever else we may find, then what are we going to do with the cart in the meantime? I agree that we should try to prevent ambushes from happening to others, but we were also hired to deliver the cart. He calls out to Valius, "What did you see beyond the bushes, Valius?"
Jun 24, 2017 9:03 am
Tracks from the looks of it, fair few goblins passing through. And unfortunately a couple of dragging marks, couple of bodies would be my guess. Valius looks eager to deal with all of this. As for the cart, maybe if we bring it as far as we can before tying it off, doubt we'll be gone for too long.
Jun 24, 2017 9:08 am
Mel stands from checking the goblin. "What if two of us go off to checl the drag marks while the other two get the wagon secured?" She grabs the goblins arm and drags it to where the other bodies are.
Jun 24, 2017 9:34 am
"Let's just take care of the cart first and then go together. It shouldn't take too long. Also we need to hide the horses somewhere as well. Maybe hitch them somewhere they can graze?" Ruthann climbs back into the wagon seat.
OOC:
is there space somewhere that I can drive our cart off the road and hide it somewhat? And maybe hide the horses as well? Maybe down the goblin path?
OOC:
As a soldier background I have Proficiency with land vehicles

OOC:
The wagon would be easy enough to steer off the trail but the hiding is a different story. If you want to take this path, explain how you are hiding it and I will roll for it's stealth depending on that and how many people are helping you.

The goblin path is littered with stray roots that jut out from the ground and low branches. If you want to take this path, I'd have you roll a land vehicle check (To see if you can control the oxen well enough to continue down this difficult path and maintain the wagon while doing it).
Jun 24, 2017 3:03 pm
OOC:
How do I do this check? 1d20+what?
Jun 24, 2017 3:19 pm
Looking into the wagon, you find an assortment of mining supplies and food; a dozen sacks of flour, several casks of salted pork, two kegs of strong ale, shovels, picks, and crowbars (about a dozen each), and five lanterns with a small barrel of oil (about 50 flasks in volume).
OOC:
The path is behind a thicket up an embankment; while it isn't hard to walk up and down the embankment alone, it would prove difficult to try and get the oxen up it along with the wagon. The pathway is carved into the surrounding forest, which bleeds onto the path every now and then. If you are looking to hide the wagon and oxen along the path, I'd ask to have you roll land vehicle (To see if you could make it up the embankment). It is most likely a more difficult check than hiding it on the main road but it would most likely be safer, in the event of something coming across it.

The main road has a deep forest bordering it, your typical trees can be found here, along with: various sized bushes, fallen branches, leaves, and the very rare, occasional dropped fruit can be found among the forest floor.

Dropping the body she turns to Ruthann. "If we are taking the cart to hide it why not just the rest of the way to Phan...Phandev...Phamdeline...whatever that place is. We cam ask about the goblins there if you really feel bad about Gungersen and Sildern." She hops up with Ruthann in her shotgun position.
