Chapter 2 - Sorrowfield

[pipes84]

"Let's make that chanting stop, and then get the prisoners out" Nods Craw wiping off beetle juices from his blade. Then he picks up his axe again and carefully leads towards the cave opening, until he can clearly see and hear whatever is happening there.

[tumblingdice]

Erevan follows Craw.

[ybn1197]

An odd looking goblin with glowing red eyes stands in the center of a large pentagram painted on the floor to the east side of the room. A collection of eight skulls from assorted creatures ring the symbol, a lit candle perched atop of each. A tattered curtain is drawn across an alcove further to the east. There is a long table that runs along the wall to the west of the entrance. Next to the far end of the table is a small sleeping pallet.

The odd looking goblin is the source of the chanting.

[PyroArrow]

Vincentio Senereno [Wizard - AC 10 - HP 5]:

Whispers,

" We need to sneak up on him & either take him out or subdue him quietly & make sure he doesn't shout out.

Plus, we need to make sure he does not enter the pentagram & get possessed & we need to destroy the pentagram. "

[pipes84]

is the chanting goblin facing us? And does he seem aware of its surroundings or like in a trance?

[hedgeknight]

Amazed at the sight of the goblin and the pentagram, Leaf hesitates, not really sure what to do. Her instinct is to charge in and slice the goblin in half...but the mystical power in the room holds her back...for now.

[ybn1197]

The goblin is facing you and his eyes burn with a fire from the inside so you don't know if he is aware of you or in a trance. As he chants, a swirling distortion begins to appear in between him and you.

[hedgeknight]

"We need to stop him! He's summoning something!"

Leaf quickly sheathes her sword and unslings her bow and nocks an arrow.

Let me know if I can fire this round or if I fire the next.

[pipes84]

"Leaf, kill him!"
While shouting to his companion, Craw charges towards the pentacle, not attacking the goblin yet, but to bash and/or kick around the skulls.


Legolaaas, kill him!!

[ybn1197]

Since his action is chanting, I will allow you to fire this round.

[PyroArrow]

Vincentio Senereno [Wizard - AC 10 - HP 5]:

Will whisper to use his Ray of Frost Cantrip as his sling whizzing noise may alert the Goblin:

To Hit: [1d20] = 12 To Damage: [1d3] = 3

[hedgeknight]

Craw shouts and Leaf quickly draws and fires...hoping she doesn't hit her charging companion.

To hit with bow: [1d20+4] = 7+4 = 11, damage with bow: [1d6+2] = 3+2 = 5

[tumblingdice]

Erevan likewise launches a ray of frost. [1d20+5] = 6+5 = 11, [1d8] = 5

OC: Happy Thanksgiving!

[ybn1197]

"Leaf, kill him!" Craw shouts and Leaf quickly draws and fires...hoping she doesn't hit her charging companion.
To hit with bow: [1d20+4] = 7+4 = 11, damage with bow: [1d6+2] = 3+2 = 5
Vincentio whispers to use his Ray of Frost Cantrip, afraid his sling whizzing noise may alert the Goblin.
To Hit: [1d20] = 12 To Damage: [1d3] = 3
Erevan likewise launches a ray of frost.
[1d20+5] = 6+5 = 11
[1d8] = 5

The goblin's eyes seem to blaze faster as Leaf's arrow and the spells of frost simply miss him. He almost starts to laugh as he chants till Craw begins to bash and/or kick around the skulls. The chanting stops and he yells in a gravelly voice "No you fool!" The air around the circle seems to shimmer before seemingly collapsing in on itself.

Initiative and Actions

[PyroArrow]

Vincentio Senereno [Wizard - AC 10 - HP 5]:

Tries again to use a Ray of Frost:

Initiative Roll:
[1d20] = 2

Ray of Frost Cantrip:
To Hit: [1d20] = 13 Damage: [1d3] = 1

[hedgeknight]

Leaf draws and nocks another arrow, moving slightly to avoid her companions, and fires at the goblin.

Initiative: [1d20+2] = 5+2 = 7
To hit with bow: [1d20+4] = 17+4 = 21, damage with bow: [1d6+2] = 2+2 = 4

[pipes84]

Now that the summoning is prevented, as it seems, Craw will tighten his grip on the sword, circle around the goblin and slash violently at the goblin's back.


Initiative: [1d20-1] = 3-1 = 2

To hit with sword: [1d20+5] = 4+5 = 9, damage: [1d8+3] = 1+3 = 4

[ybn1197]

Will wait one more day for Erevan.

[tumblingdice]

Erevan puts his thumbs together, chants a few words, then launches a blast of searing flame at the goblin (burning hands):

initiative: [1d20+2] = 18+2 = 20
spell attack roll, if applicable: [1d20+5] = 9+5 = 14
damage: [3d6] = 14

OC: spell deducted

[ybn1197]

Initiative
20. Erevan
11. Goblin
7. Leaf
2. Vincentio
2. Craw

Erevan puts his thumbs together, chants a few words, then launches a blast of searing flame at the goblin (burning hands). There is no attack roll for Burning Hands, its an area attack spell so the defendants do get a DEX save to get out of the way. Failure = full damage, Success = half damage. The goblin nimbly jumps out of the way as the flames lick at his heels. Dex Save: [1d20+2] = 16+2 = 18 vs DC 13. Scowling, he turns to look at Erevan and shouts at him in a primeval voice. Chaos Shout: Damage: [3d4+1] = 6+1 = 7 Pushed 10' back Give me a DEX save vs. DC 15 for half damage. Leaf draws and nocks another arrow, moving slightly to avoid her companions, and fires at the goblin. To hit with bow: [1d20+4] = 17+4 = 21, damage with bow: [1d6+2] = 2+2 = 4. The arrow catches him in the shoulder and draws his attention away from the elven wizard. Vincentio tries again to use a Ray of Frost (To Hit: [1d20] = 13 Damage: [1d3] = 1) but Leaf's arrow causes the goblin to pivot at just the right moment and the ray passes by ineffectually. Now that the summoning is prevented, as it seems, Craw tightens his grip on the sword, circles around the goblin and slashs violently at the goblin's back (To hit with sword: [1d20+5] = 4+5 = 9, damage: [1d8+3] = 1+3 = 4) but Vincentio's ray forces Craw to stumble and his swing is poorly timed.
