HotDQ - Marpenoth 23, 1489 DR

Your rest is broken after only a short hours rest. It is just past midnight when a guard rushes in to wake you.

"Please, come quick, the attackers have broken into the keep. They have forced open the Sally Port and have rushed in. We need reinforcements.

The young guard is terrified looking as he waits for you to awaken!

You make your way in the direction Castellan points you. As you get to the entrance of the Sally Port you are met by a tall, lithe, imposing human, who would tower over most. He has a sharp, hawk-like nose and bright black eyes. His hair is long, sleek, and jet and his skin, where visible, is olive and still tinged with the blood of youth. He is a man of the swamps, wearing ocher and kaolin paint on his face and body, as is the tradition of a shaman of his stature.

He wears a hide jacket and leather leggings as customary to his nation. Slung over his shoulder is a hide drum... or shield, hard to identify, and he carries a long staff in his left hand. A long quiver of javelins and spears shakes quietly on his back. His chest is adorned with amulets, charms, strings of river mussel shells, and tiny bird skulls. The middle of his chest is adorned with an ornate wampum chestplate, strung with hand-drilled beads of turquoise and ivory. About his neck, hangs a satchel of herbs. On his shoulder is a chirping crow.

The tall Druid takes the lead and enters the Sally Port. As you ascend a short set of stairs and turn a corner you pass through an open set of doors and see before you 4 kobolds, a humonoid wearing a ceremonial looking headgear and he is accompanied by a four legged lizard like creature with a long thick tail that bears the resemblance of a dragon but is the size of and walks like a wolf.

Bartholomew and Harold go first

Bartholomew cuts down the first kobold while Harold’s arrow pierces the next one between the eyes. In a flash the battlefield has two less combatants.

The Lizard creature advances on The Dragonborn and attempts to bite him. Bart is able to pull back as the jaws snap at air.

Oraten and Kel are up!

Dex saves

The drake and the humanoid manage to avoid direct hits from the spell. The small kobold dodges the brunt of it but it’s just too much and he succumbs to the flames.

Oraten is up
