Day 22 – Just about-Dawn Sortie -- 7:08 am

Made a PMing mistake, sent the PM to myself instead of Ethan... sigh. Hopefully I've rectified that at this point.

The elf, bow at the ready, sends two arrows to the group on the roof. The first shot goes high, and sails over the three goblins up there. But the second shot catches a goblin in the throat, sending him gurgling to the ground. It also sends the other goblin that was shooting at Till ducking for cover. Out of targets for the moment, Yosef sees a goblin appear for just a moment, as it flies up with a bunch of splinters.

The half-orc gets right under the trapdoor for a second try, with the human cleric a bit too close for comfort beneath her. Putting should to the trapdoor, and heaving, muscles straining, she bursts through it, sending bits of wood flying as the trapdoor bursts upward and asunder. The goblin standing on the trapdoor gets tossed up a foot or two before falling to the floor of the rooftop guard-post.


That leaves but two goblins on the top of the tower who are a lot quieter now. I will need an initiative roll, action calls, and any corresponding rolls for those actions.

I will need an initiative roll..

Initiative [1d6] = 6

[dmw71]

Jeloon's momentum carries her into the room and she quickly pounces to her feet and collects her bearing. Spotting the two remaining goblins, she stares them down and, without a moment of hesitation, brandishes her blade as she begins to move in their direction. Unable to speak their tongue, she sees little choice but to eliminate the potential "threat."

+1 Longsword (vs. s/m) [1d20+2] = 3+2 = 5 [1d8+3] = 1+3 = 4
+1 Longsword (vs. s/m) [1d20+2] = 4+2 = 6 [1d8+3] = 4+3 = 7
+1 Longsword (vs. s/m) [1d20+2] = 10+2 = 12 [1d8+3] = 6+3 = 9
+1 Longsword (vs. s/m) [1d20+2] = 16+2 = 18 [1d8+3] = 4+3 = 7
+1 Longsword (vs. s/m) [1d20+2] = 19+2 = 21 [1d8+3] = 3+3 = 6

Yosef smiles excitedly when he picks off one of the tower goblins with his second shot. He laughs out loud when he sees his hearty half-orc fighter counterpart breech and send another one of the dirty little humanoids flying through the air with broken trapdoor. He can hear Bruard yelling up encouragements, and is reminded of when they cleared out and secured the Caves of Quasqueton together as fledgling adventurers and companions. The memories are all fond ones.
"The good times continue to roll, dear Dravic," he offers the soul of his long past magely companion and former human best friend.

Knowing that Jeloon and Bruard can easily finish off the remaining couple of dirty, soon-to-be-dead humanoid crybabies up on the tower, Yosef turns around and kneels down by the day shift leader he shot. He sets his bow and next arrow down beside him and begins giving the dead goblin a proper once-over. Already knowing both his arrows are broken and won't be recoverable, the fighter/mage concentrates on looking for things like keys and any other interesting trinkets.

If Bruard can get through the trap door behind Jeloon, AND attack any still-standing gobbies, he will. If not, disregard this roll:

Mace to-hit [1d20] = 14 damage (sm/m) [1d6+1] = 5+1 = 6

Day 22 – Just about-Dawn Sortie -- 7:09 am

.

The elf smiling at the utter destruction of the goblins takes a peek at the crumpled goblin below him. The goblin is outfitted like the others, short sword, crossbow, 20 bolts, and a pouch with 2gp and 5sp. He shakes his head at the meager haul.

The half-orc explodes on to the rooftop. After a second of hesitation, both goblins stare at her (one from the ground) and steel their resolve (likely due to the fact that they see no escape than bravery) and charge at her with swords. Prepared for the onslaught though she makes some poor strikes, not able to hit the foremost goblin. This allows the goblin an inside attack, which it cannot capitalize on, missing terribly. Her next strike finishes it off, then her next quick two strikes finish the second goblin, just getting up off the ground, in a snicker-snack of blood and gore.

It's at this point that Bruard jumps up with mace at the ready to attack. He just shakes his head and smiles in a "this again" kind of way, at the rapidly expanding pools of red on the floor of the tower top.

Till, meanwhile, is still over the edge of the wall.

Yosef frowns when all he finds is the meager coin. He had hoped there would be a key to the inner compound, or perhaps something else of special import. "Stupid, dirty and cheap bastards," he curses under his breath.

Seeing no further sign of Till, the elf quickly pockets the coin purse and proceeds to roll the dirty little humanoid off the same side of the elevated walkway where Van and Eyman await, along with any of his weapons or gear he dropped. Once the deceased goblin goes thud/splat/whatever, Yosef leans over the edge and gives their two loyal henchmen a quick smile and salute and also a signal to remain at the bottom of the rope quietly until further notice.

The fighter/mage then proceeds to pick up his bow and loose arrow and double-time it back to the tower to meet back up with Jeloon and Bruard. He will take up a position in the shadows of the open double doors, ready his bow and arrow again, and train his sights on the walkway before calling up to his two mates above. "Any of the dirty bastards have a key on them?"


OOC: Ron, wanted to confirm how light it is now. Assuming still twilight but can we determine how long before the sun will peek over the horizon?

[rredmond]

Sun has definitely started to slowly peek, and it's becoming lighter. Dawn means lots of shadows thrown though too.
