(The bandit and goblins rolled a 1 crit failure! They are mean but none too smart).
They don't object and you also get the drop on them. You have advantage and a free action. attack/move/ect

In reply to Guthrir (msg # 32):

You see ahead of you some 4 yards up the trail a group of five goblins . One ,larger and meaner looking then the rest with dual short swords. Calls for your halt in broken common." Come over slowly," he says "Don't make any sudden moves or my brothers will make pin cushions out of you," he says. Indicating the four other goblins with short bows at the ready behind him. It is at this time that you see a goblin war shaman step from the tree line. Most likely the same one you noticed earlier.

In reply to Gannor (msg # 34):

Guthrir uses Entangle to capture as many of the archers as he can and, if possible, the shaman, and then pulls out his axe.

In reply to Guthrir (msg # 35):

[The goblins are uneffected (they rolled a 16) the shaman got a 21 and begins casting]

Gannor and Guthrir have advantage roll for initiative and add a +1 modifier

COMBAT!

In reply to Gannor (msg # 34):

Would turn slightly to his pack, balling his right hand into a fist as he would suddenly break into a charge towards the man in the road. Perhaps the goblins, without their leader would scatter.

Florric would attempt to Clothesline the man before him to take him off his feet.

Florric Thunderfoot rolled 12 using 1d20+1 ((11)).

In reply to Gannor (msg # 36):

Guthrir dismounts his pony as quickly and carefully as he can, then slaps the horse's flank and yells something to it in a foreign language. The pony runs.
Now the stalwart dwarf looses the strap on his shield and pulls it over his shoulder to ready it.
He stands, stout and resolute, against the attackers.
"This be a mistake, ye poor fools. Turn back now an' live."

In reply to Florric Thunderfoot (msg # 37):

(that IS a hit! Roll DMG sir!)

You take the bandit leader by surprise. He grunts as your blow connects .

In reply to Guthrir (msg # 38):

The shaman continues to chant,(casting). The goblin archers miss Gannor and Guthrir. The dual sword wielding goblin rolled a 21,and then a 12(but does 0 dmg on the 21. You and the dual sword wielding goblin are now at melee distance.  Gannor takes his dual shot with the bow against the shaman goblin. He rolls a 9 and then a 14. He hits the shaman for 4 pts dmg taking the shaman a bit off balance. Breaking his spell casting.


The goblins let loose a volly from their bows. Most go wide. One does thunk on Guthrir's shield burying itself in it. The dual wielding goblin charges to meet Guthrir. He strikes one blow connecting but sliding off Guthrir's armor.
Gannor fires from his bow at the the shaman. He lets off a sigh of displeasure when his first shot misses then takes another. This one connects digging a bit into his armor and  breaking the goblin's concentration and knocking him almost off his feet

In reply to Gannor (msg # 39):

Florric charges forward, leaping up at the end of his charge to reach the sweet spot on the man's neck, striking it hard with his arm, looking to knock him low. Perhaps the rest would scatter at this display.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Florric Thunderfoot rolled 11 using 1d6+4 Dex +1x charge ((6)).

In reply to Gannor (msg # 40):

Attack roll with +2 axe: 24 (18+6). 11 (7+4) damage if it hits

Guthrir breaks off the arrow embedded in his shield with a swipe of his axe, then holds the shield high and sweeps the axe underneath it in a wide and powerful arc at the goblin's stomach.

In reply to Florric Thunderfoot (msg # 41):

The bandit drops, your blow having connected. You feel something give. He the bandit's throat has been crushed. You can hear his struggling breathe . Do you finish him off or let nature take its course?

In reply to Guthrir (msg # 42):

Your blow connects. You disembowel the goblin. It chokes on black blood and drops.
Roll for initiative for a new combat round.

In reply to Gannor (msg # 43):

Taking a moment to assess instead, darts back to his pack his fists raised, looking about to the goblins in the bush. "You stop me, he dies!" He speaks aloud as he reaches for his pack.


If the goblins left him alone, he'd root for one of the things of value he still carried. One of the three healing potions, maybe he could save the thief's life, even if he had just threatened him moments before. He hoped this idea would work... Thief was choking for air, but maybe he could drink...

In reply to Gannor (msg # 44):

12 for initiative. Guthrir is going to be working his way toward that shaman.

In reply to Florric Thunderfoot (msg # 45):

Ok. Cool move and (turnabout action), I groove on that.

Your DC is going to be a 16 to save the bandit. You may add bonuses and anything else that can mod the roll.

The goblins scatter. Seeing their leader fall, they assume the halfling will do the same to them. (Roll a D20 to see if they drop anything in their haste to escape.)

The bandit is fading fast. You have one shot to save him!

In reply to Guthrir (msg # 46):

(Gannor rolls a 1 *not good*, Goblin archers roll a 3 and the shaman rolls a 15)

Gannor makes a tactical error and the shaman seizes the chance. He cast magic missile and Gannor takes 6 points of magic damage. knocking him off his feet. He will not be making an attack this round.

You may make your action next (now) sir!

In reply to Gannor (msg # 48):

Attack Roll: 21 (15+6). Damage Roll: 10.

Guthrir charges toward the shaman and the tangling roots from his spell pull back into the earth before him as his feet touch the ground. He jerks to a halt in front of the goblin and, with a bestial roar, throws the momentum into a mighty swing at the magic-user's head.

In reply to Gannor (msg # 47):

Didn't know anything about medicine, so he had hardly the chance to save this thief. He placed a hand on the thiefs throat, trying to tight a little maybe clean the passage way to his stomach. he hoped the healing properties of the potion would do it. "Try and swallow this.. Might just save your life."

This is it, all or nothing.

Florric Thunderfoot rolled 4 using 1d20 ((4))

((Damn))

In reply to Florric Thunderfoot (msg # 50):

(a 4 not good at all)

Roll a D20 , add any intel or wisdom bonuses if you still want to try and save him.

In reply to Guthrir (msg # 49):

You  connect with the Shaman. Its neck to be specific. Guthrir takes the goblin shamans head clean off.
The other goblins seeing this lose their resolve,(they failed their moral check).

Guthrir looks around making sure there are no hidden archers. Seeing none, he turns to Gannor. He is standing up, after a fashion. Leaning on his bow a bit holding his left side a bit where the magic missiles hit him. "Goblins. They are close to the city. Granted Phlan is a frontier town,...but," he looks to the forest where the goblins withdrew. "A nest and warrens you,think?"

In reply to Gannor (msg # 51):

((Must be invested in this thief now, that you want to give me a 2nd chance. :P No, bonus's I can add))

Florric Thunderfoot rolled 18 using 1d20 ((18)).

In reply to Gannor (msg # 52):

Guthrir nods uncertainly. "Aye, it'd seem so. This is right close to tha city, tho. Ah wonder what they were up to?"

In reply to Florric Thunderfoot (msg # 53):

You save his life. The potion almost choking him even more as it works its way down. His breathing becomes even and his physical form is , and looks as if he is asleep.

(I got invested when .)Thunderfoot wanted to save him. Not often a PC does that with an enemy.)

You get 15 XP for scaring the goblins and 25 XP for saving the bandit.

Roll a D20 for a perception or listen check

In reply to Guthrir (msg # 54):

"There are rumors in town. I heard about the unsettled and wild areas of the city ruins. Places where they have not explored yet, collapsed buildings and blight. I heard say of long shadows and razor claws in those areas over more then one fire on more then one eve." Gannor half shrugs and half shakes his head. "Would all seem possible. I know there is a strong city guard presence in places leading to these untamed areas around the city proper."
(Shall we go see the she orc or shall we investigate the goblins?)

(You get 110 XP for this encounter)

In reply to Gannor (msg # 56):

Guthrir grins. "The goblins're here. Denova ain't. Let's check oot what's goin' on wi' tha gobs."
