In reply to Tath (msg # 69):

Maybe if we all die we could take over some goblins.  We would be a party of goblins fighting against the orcs, trying to survive and take over the island!

Daniv has to admit to himself that he is scared, fear coursing though him.  After what had happened to him when they were fighting the drunken pirate, he finds himself worried about hurting himself again, or one of his companions.
However, when it comes time, he will either peak around his cover to shoot at the goblins, or, if they come into the room he occupies, he will attempt to shoot one in the back.

09:13, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 5 using 1d6.  Shortbow damage.
09:13, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 7 using 1d20-2.  Shoot with short bow.
18:56, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 3 using 1d6.  Damage.
18:55, Today: Daniv Jensen rolled 7 using 1d20+2.  Shoot with short bow.

Rebeccah drops her arrow as she prepares to shoot one of the goblins.

18:10, Today: Rebeccah rolled 0 using 1d20-4.  short bow.

(Holy cow.  Fortunately, you still have another surprise segment.  Don't forget bows fire twice.)

The party comes out swinging, catching the goblins completely off-guard.  They pull out their shortswords as the party continues their ambush.

Jory almost lost his sword in the first attack, but held on to it so that he can try again.
He now has better aim as he swings his broadsword at the last goblin's back.

OOC: to hit 14, damage 6 with broadsword.
15:19, Today: Jory Ranglore rolled 6 using 2d4+3.  Damage broadsword.
15:18, Today: Jory Ranglore rolled 14 using 1d20-1.  Attack goblin from rear, -4 +1STR+2Rear.

In reply to Jory Ranglore (msg # 74):

Surprised the goblins didn't counter attack, yet Sal swipes again with his weapon.
going wide, again, he misses.




If no adjustments and Thatco 20...hit AC 10

08:37, Today: Sal Warth rolled 10 using 1d20.  next surprise round attach.

In reply to Sal Warth (msg # 75):

Lam shifts his Spear and tries a different angle and ... skewers the ground at his feet - Dang this fighting stuff is hard these Goblins keep moving (though the Goblin was standing still when he poked the ground).

17:13, Today: Lam Durus rolled 5 using 1d20.  Lam attack.

Tath tried again hoping to at least scratch the goblin in front of him. But it wa a usless act as the spear just bounced of the wall.

21:31, Today: Tath rolled 3 using 1d20.  Attack with Spear.

Rebeccah grabs more arrows and keeps trying to shoot a goblin.


21:22, Today: Rebeccah rolled 8 using 1d20-4.  attack.

21:21, Today: Rebeccah rolled 6 using 1d20-4.  attack.

21:19, Today: Rebeccah rolled 10 using 1d20-4.  attack.

On behalf of Kerkrin
Kerkrin wields his best weapon and attacks the first goblin. His aim is good and he smiles as the goblin may be hit.

To hit 14, damage 3; still need to add modifiers.
13:31, Today: Jory Ranglore rolled 3 using 1d6.  Damage.
13:31, Today: Jory Ranglore rolled 14 using 1d20.  On behalf of Kerkrin.

(I'm also adding in modifiers as needed, so if you're not rolling a straight d20, list the modifiers you are using.  I think most of you are already doing that.  Some of those misses down there became hits.)

Rebeccah fires her arrows, putting two in the back of one goblin.  Kerkrin puts a bolt into the throat of another goblin.  As two of the goblins are going down, Jory beheads the last one from behind.

Jory takes the shortsword from the last goblin and checks quickly if it has a money pouch on its belt, and he takes the pouch if it has.
Kerkrin does the same for the first goblin.
"Bring Keestake and let him guide us to the catacombs," Jory whispers.

In reply to Jory Ranglore (msg # 81):

"Great job!  Sorry I missed all the action.  Anyone want a Bardiche?"
trying to hand the weapon over to Tath.
"Maybe you will have better luck with it than me."

Deniv stands disappointed at not having been of much use in the battle.  He had never been much of a combatant, but he did not think he would be this useless.
He lowers the bow as the others dispatch the goblins, even Rebeccah hitting the mark with at least one shot.  He moves to see if he can retieve his arrows, even as he kicks a stone on the floor dejectedly.

In reply to Daniv Jensen (msg # 83):

Sighing at doing nothing more then blocking a Goblin Lam quietly directs the group - OK, good job, yes, take the dead Goblins and hide them in one of the rooms, let's not leave them out n the hallway. 

Knowing how low they are in supplies and gear, Take what we can find on the bodies that is useful. 

Lam then goes and get's Keetake, (leads him by the arm if he must) time to get moving - we need to go before more Goblins or Orcs show up.

Once Lam has Keestake, OK, everybody back in a marching order, Jory take the lead again, I have Keestake.

In reply to Sal Warth (msg # 82):

Tath nodded to Sal, "Sure I'll attempt to use it. But if it's anything like my experience with this spear I have no great hopes."

In reply to Tath (msg # 85):

Chucking at the exchange of weapons and what to try next, yea this spear thing does not work for me, I'll have to try this Battle axe or even just a small dagger if that is what it takes.  Though maybe a bow would work next time. hmph, weapons are so fickle in how you use them.

I, myself, am not skilled in the use of a bow, Deniv says quietly, adding to the conversation.  But, it seems to me that the dagger, while I am skilled in its use, may put me in greater danger of death than I already am.

In reply to Daniv Jensen (msg # 87):

"Daggers do put you in harms way, but I think I will fair better with one of them."
Now holding out a dagger in each hand.
"Lets press on to get off this beast infested island."

In reply to Lam Durus (msg # 84):

Jory takes the lead and moves as silently as possible in the direction that Keestake indicates.
If Keestake refuses to direct them, Jory heads north.

In reply to Jory Ranglore (msg # 89):

Lam whispers, OK guys, enough chatter, daggers are good for now, lets get moving.  And follows Jory with Keestake in tow.

Keestake leads the group North.  A door marks the end of the hallway.  The lock and a portion of the door frame are broken.  The other side of the door is more hallway.  To the North appears to be where the Sea King and his family had their living quarters, if the size and richness of the hallway is any indicator.  Keestake looks sadly down the hall for a moment and turns to the East.  "It's this way."

In reply to Man in Black (msg # 91):

As they move past the hall way leading North, Lam indicates to the group to watch as they go past the intersection by pointing two fingers to his eyes then points down the hallway. He continues following Keestake weary of any more surprises.

In reply to Lam Durus (msg # 92):

Dagger out, and now another in his off hand.
"I just feel better with two."  He mutters under his breath, in reference to his daggers.

Passing the hallways in disarray.

"Some creatures you simply cant teach respect to."

Jory answers Sal softly : "Indeed, this is savage behavior. I wonder what their plan was; you don't find a hidden treasure by smashing every piece of furniture, do you?
