Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
The Grizzly Woman holds her ground. She is frustrated that the acolytes have all cowered away behind the warriors, and uses her tree branch to take out her frustrations on the charging goblins.
The Grizzly's Trunk (provides -1AC vs natural weapons) [1d20+2] = 5+2 = 7, damage [1d10+2] = 2+2 = 4

Halfpint, feeling pain from the friendly fire as well as the enemy one, switches to her sword and lets the goblin have all she can give in a swing.
short sword [1d20+1] = 17+1 = 18; [1d6+1] = 6+1 = 7

The focused attacks on the goblin clergy provide the desired effect. Baxtaw looses an arrow and a second acolyte drops. (-7) Foxy's scimitar bites into the arm of the last remaining acolyte, again disrupting its attempt to call on Sdubok's blessings. (-1) Morrs overbears the chief priest, bearing Dmukaz to the ground with a scream. (-7)
The five spearmen try to intercede, the largest of them cut down by Halfpint's sword while the others fail to land blows on the party members in the face of Clay's quarterstaff and Grizzly's branch, both swinging in the hallway and keeping the goblins out of reach. Seeing their clergy drop, the spearmen lose their nerve. They remaining goblins break and try to flee down the sloping hallway away from the party.

Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
With the head priest under Morr's weight, Clay tells the dog to hold. Clay uses his quarterstaff to break the goblin's fingers* before disarming him. I remember you, priest. You burned Balex. Now you are going to work for us. Where is the King. Where are the Fingers of Zhint? Speak fast and speak true.
* I don't think I need to to to hit, and I don't really want to do anything more than make casting impossible for him, but just in case I need it:Quarterstaff [1d20-1] = 6-1 = 5, dmg [1d6-1] = 5-1 = 4
If the priest puts up a struggle, Clay will let Morr attack. If I read all that wrong and the priest is dead, transfer this to the acolyte, please.
I'll let you roll the CHA test since I don't know the disposition. He is being offered his life in exchange for assistance, by the way. If that affects disposition at all.

The Grizzly Woman trods callously on the goblin priest being held down as she enters the room beyond the right-hand double doors. She whistles sharply and starts looking for the runaway bear.

Baxtaw seeing the battle coming to end. He stops casting spell.

Halfpint winces in pain. The battle marked the first time she has ever taken such a bloody hit from a real enemy, and it feels much worse than ones from a competition foe with wooden swords.
if a fleeing goblin was near enough, she would swat at it (barely, apparently)
short sword [1d20+1] = 2+1 = 3; [1d6+1] = 2+1 = 3

Foxy O'Hare
Foxy will tackle one of the prones acolytes, but the little green thing keeps dodging out the way form being pinned to the floor.
Foxy melee: Scimitar:[1d20] = 3damage:[1d8] = 4
"Secure the are and then we press on down into the kings chamber. Anyone got any magic to stop those fleeing from running too far or alerting he king and his guard?"

Anyone with a bow should get a free shot at them while they are in range, I am guessing. Baxtaw,

Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
Sure - they all missed with a final melee attack, but I'll allow one ranged shot before they disappear. The oil fire behind you is casting a lot of light so I'll classify it as "dim" at that range. These final ranged attacks will be +2 for shooting a fleeing opponent, -2 for dim lighting, -1 for long range: total of -1 penalty.
Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
Halfpint quickly attempts to grab her bow and fire at the flee-ers, but the results are as expected with her haste, pain and low lighting.
Shortbow [1d20+3] = 2+3 = 5; [1d6+1] = 5+1 = 6
(oh and minus 1 on top of that)

If Morr has the priest securely pinned without risk of retaliation or attempts at fleeing, Clay will belay his stated action and try a sling shot at the fleeing guards.
Sling at long range [1d20-1] = 13-1 = 12, dmg [1d4] = 2

Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
The party uses blades and bows, but is unable to impede the flight of the four remaining guards and the last priest, who all flee (as only a goblin can) weaving nimbly while squealing their terror until they disappear in the darkness down the sloping tunnel's length.
Clay intercedes with Morrs, finding Dmukaz the high priest incapacitated and woozy. Unable to stand, the priest still chuckles wetly around the blood in his throat, then he coughs and spits a congealed clump on Clay's legs. "Boy, terrified boy, who flees before Sdubok. Run! Run again! Only death awaits you ahead." He gives a wicked, if pained, grin. The Priest of Fire and Pain is not impressed by Clay's threats.
Dmukaz winces a moment as Grizzly Woman steps on his leg, then the broad-shouldered woman stomps onward through the right-hand door. She finds herself in a massive, oval-shaped chamber with a domed roof. It is over 100' across and twice that going left-to-right, iron braziers casting a ruddy glow to light the room along its entire length. The walls flicker with the firelight, showing breathtaking dwarven engravings around the entire room. Massive kettle drums are easily discernable at the room ends to both left and right, what might be other large instruments clustered there as well. The far wall has massive stone tables before it, now bloody and covered with gore. An archway leads to a hall on the far wall, offset to the right of center. The floors are covered with filth and bones, the evidence of unkempt goblin life. She sees Huckleberry rummaging through some smashed barrels on the left end of the room, pawing at what looks like salt fish.

Death is nothing to fear. Just another state of being. The world may gladly have my bones when my time is done. You can have much treasure for knowledge. More than this, even. He holds out his coin purse as an offer. Which way to the King's chamber? Where are the Finger's of Zhint kept?
Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
HAlfpint will look to see if any of their recent arrows were left intact (I cant recall the retrieval rules), and wait for the group to figure out the smartest safest plan.

Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
The Grizzly Woman walks up to Huckleberry and tries some of the fish as well. Then she grabs the bear by the scruff of the neck and drags him back to the others.
Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
Half-pint's only shot was into the bear's butt. It isn't recoverable. Generally, consider all arrows lost when you're hurrying. I allow retrieval when you have unlimited time for recovery.
The goblin leers as it snatches the purse. "The king's chamber is at the end of this tunnel, and he never parts with his artifacts of power. Go, find your death."
The Grizzly Woman finds southern saltfish barrels, surely taken from the caravans. It is still wholesome. The bear returns with you.

Re: Expedition - Foxy: Bounty On The Goblin HQ - 02 June 202
Clay looks to Ms. O'Hare and the rest of the party, wondering if they have any questions for Dmukas. If not, he will have Morr finish the goblin off.
