Nokrugh turns to the remaining hobgoblins and in an angry tone say's " Why do you seek me out? Explain yourselves! " Motioning to the hill above he states, " Those are elves up there and for now they've stayed their arrows, but if I know elves and I do have experience with their kind,...

Arrows start flying in all directions and Nokrugh's not entirely certain at least some of them aren't meant for him. Using the confusion to his advantage he retrieves his bastard sword and hacks at the nearest hobgoblins while maneuvering his back to a tree so that he only has to guard his front. Ro...

Feeling the net begin to weigh him down he knows that struggling will only make it worse and that it needs to come off quickly or he's dead! He grabs one side of the net and lifts doing his best to not get tangled in it. Lifting and swinging the net around he attempts to entangle the three hobgoblin...

"Illneval's avatar? Horse shit! Prove it or you come with us!" Nokrugh tilts his head back and starts roaring in almost uncontrollable laughter at his lousy idea. "What in Illneval's name was I thinking" he says to himself. Moments later eyes wet from laughter, he finally pulls ...

The patrol leader holds up his arm as he continues on up the trail, and the rest of the patrol slows down, approaching slowly. The leader sniffs the air loudly and then points out something on the ground, crouching to peer at it. He straightens suddenly and says, *"Show yourself! Hands off wea...

Cursing his luck he thinks quickly and decides he needs a diversion. Since his horse is already free of the journey's burden he unties his horse, and with a slap on the rump sends him running. If the diversion is successful he'll move off the game trail and attempt to find someplace safe to hide.

Nokrugh surveys the area around the lake for while then decides to refill his waterskin before finding an acceptable camp site. Not wanting to be too close to the water for fear of encountering one of the many dangerous denizens of the forest coming for a drink he finds an elevated area with good vi...

Nok approaches the giant corpse tentatively still mounted upon his steed, making sure to give the feasting wolves wide birth. He looks around the site for clues as to what could have taken down such a ferocious adversary as a giant. After giving it some though it just didn't add up to him, giants th...

Nokrugh nudges his mount forward toward the circling vultures off in the distance and thanks Illneval that the Grunwald barbarians saw fit to give him a steed accustomed to the stench of battle. A whining horse would not do well for his mood considering the cold, wet, sleepless night he'd just endur...

The manor would have provided much appreciated comforts but the barking and cackling make Noks decision easy. Pushing his steed further away from the manor he continues to travel west until the lack of day light puts his horse at risk then sets up camp and prepares for a long, wet night.

Recognizing the handywork Nok knows he's headed the right way, and not too far behind it would seem. Mounting his horse he continues "west" keeping his eyes and nose alert for any additional hobgoblin patrols.

The foul breeze interferes with the half-orcs normally acute olfactory senses as he's unable to detect any present danger. His eyes however do not deceive him as the hogs and dead bodies come into sight. Climbing down from his mount Nok unsheathes his sword, pulls his shield onto his forearm, and wa...

The sun was just creeping through a crack in the furs covering the window when Nokrugh finished loading his backpack with the various sundries he'd procured from the Stonebow earlier that morning. As quietly as he could muster he slung his pack over his shoulder, retrieved his battle scarred shield ...

Hedge, Nokrugh does indeed plan on returning to Grunwald. And did I just read in your last post that you whacked a character!!!?? AWESOME! Ahem...I mean damn dude, sorry for your loss. :twisted: Also, I'm shoulder deep in multiple projects at both work and home so my slow down in posting will contin...

Nokrugh watches on as Rast begins to discard the uneaten trout heads and says, "you not going to eat those? The meat just behind the eyes is the best part." Relieving him of the heads he begins to suck the meat from them eye and all with a rather disgusting slurping sound. "I'm going ...

Aidens query catches Nokrugh off guard and a long moment passes before he's able to gather his thoughts and respond. "The question you pose is a simple one without a simple answer, so I'll do my best to explain. For generations the orc Black Boar clan were the scourge of the Spine of the World....

Nokrugh watched the party as they awoke to the brisk morning air. This morning felt different somehow, as if a weight had been lifted from his shoulders despite the weary looks and heavy hearts that still adorned some of his companions. Feeling he had proven himself capable to Illneval, his father a...

Nokrugh says "I'll take the third watch", and then rolls out his bedroll and says a short prayer to Illneval before falling into a deep slumber.

I WANT MY 2 DOLLARS!!!
