All-Voldur campaign (IC)

[danzibr]

Only Goblin #9 resists Klar'ith's magics. Goblin #10 is unconscious, blinded, and stunned for (2d4)[5] rounds while Goblin #7 is blinded and stunned for (1d4)[2] rounds.

[Electrobolt]

Seeing the one creature falling to his bolt, Borkan moved himself forward 30 feet before seeing goblin #9 still standing up. Aiming his crossbow, still imbued with the blessing, he loosed a bolt at the goblin.

Bringing his previously loaded heavy crossbow up to point squarely at the last standing goblin's chest Klar'ith smiles "Surrender".

Intimidate (1d20)[18]

If he moves towards me, draws a weapon or does anything offensive then back off, stay out of melee combat and shoot him. If he runs away, shoot him. If he moves to attack anyone else, shoot him.

Crossbow (1d20+7)[13] including Point Blank Shot and Bless
Critical 19-20/x2 (1d20+7)[15]
Damage (1d10+1)[2]

If he drops his own crossbow then he gets to live (if I roll high enough to hit him and nobody else kills him first)

If he's dead by the time I get to take action then coup de grace the goblin in front of me instead.

[Linguz]

Shanar moves back, dropping her bow and drawing her kukri as she did so, going past Klar'ith and standing next to #10. She swung her kukri, quickly and twice, striking both #10 and #9, hopefully.

Still blinded, Shanar moves at only half speed and so has to make a double move to get next to #10.

Goblin #4 stays hunkered down, disoriented and fearing for its life.

Goblin #2 still runs eastward.

Hobgoblin #10 is incapacitated.

Goblin #7 is similarly unable to do anything.

Dropping its crossbow, Goblin #9 draws a morning star and strikes at Klar'ith.

Borkan's bolt tears through Goblin #9's leather armor, dealing 10 points of damage, knocking it out.

Klar'ith executes the Goblin lying at his feet.

[danzibr]

Everyone's attacks are utterly ineffective.

Also, on Goblin #7's turn the acid scalds Klar'ith's skin, dealing (2d4)[3] damage.

Summary of status effects and damage (lmk if anything is off):

Spoiler

Show

First, I forgot to add the numbers. The blue dude is #7 and the Hobgoblin is #8.

Goblin #2 is no longer feared but is long gone (though perhaps you could catch it).

Goblin #7 is blinded and stunned until the end of Klar'ith's turn.

Hobgoblin #8 is unharmed.

Klar'ith has taken 10 damage.

Harfil and Shanar are blinded until the end of Goblin #7's turn.

Harfil has taken 12 damage.

[Linguz]

Shanar waits, until her eyes can see again.

[Wait action until Goblin #7's turn, now she goes after him.]

THEN she moves over to the two goblins that are still standing and attacks them, using her known maneuver.

[hoverfrog]

Klar'ith has nothing to neutralise the acid burning his chest and hopes that the spell has run its course. "Two can play at that game." he grunts as he hurls his own glob of acid at the nearest enemy.

Acid splatter (Complete Mage, p. 37) ranged touch attack (1d20+4)[22] Range 10'

[Electrobolt]

Seeing as now it seems the remaining foes are unable to easily be hit at a distance due to his allies apparently covering them, Borkan stowed his crossbow away. Once that was all said and done, he then snapped his fingers as a purple mind blade materialized in his right hand.

Spoiler

Considering sheathing a weapon is a move action, I would assume stowing a crossbow away would be similar... And summoning a mind blade is, until 5th level, a move action. So yeah, two move actions done

[danzibr]

Volskan fires an arrow at the blue dude.

Shanar holds off...

Goblin #4 continues to press itself against he cliff face as though hoping to disappear.

Goblin #2 continues running eastward.

Blinded and stunned, Goblin #7 does nothing.

Sight recovered, Shanar leaps into action, the able Hobgoblin #8 able to dodge her blow while the incapacitated Goblin #7 gets it where it hurts, taking 3 damage.

Not having much luck against Harfil, Hobgoblin #8 retaliates against Shanar.

Attack: (1d20+2)[17]
Confirm: (1d20+2)[4]
Damage: (1d8+1)[8]

Borkan successfully stows away his crossbow and forms a totally bad-donkey sword from his mind in his hand.

Klar'ith moves slightly northwest to be within firing range and splatters acid all over Hobgoblin #8, knocking it unconscious.

[danzibr]

Volskan's arrow finds its mark, inflicting 8 damage.

Harfil swings wildly, unfortunately missing, but only due to his lack of sight.

Shanar's blow knocks Goblin #7 unconscious.

Hobgoblin #8's attack barely overcomes Shanar's defenses, dealing 8 damage before acid eats away at it.

Conclusion:

Spoiler

Klar'ith took 10 damage, Harfil 12, Shanar 8. Beyond that, the encounter is... essentially over. As soon as you figure out what to do about the disabled guy.

Loot: Overcame 7 dudes of CR 1/3, 1 dude of CR 1/2, 2 dudes of CR 3, so 530 experience per person, doubled to 1060.

From the first Hobgoblin corpse: +1 longsword, studded leather, light shield, javelin.
From the second Hobgoblin corpse: longsword, studded leather, light shield, javelin.
From the Goblin Wizard: mysterious potion, mysterious stick, spell book.

[Linguz]

Shanar sits down against the wall holding onto the two places where she got hit. "Can anyone heal?"

[hoverfrog]

Klar'ith lifts his wand from his belt and mutters the command to reverse the damage from his own wounds. Two crossbow bolts had cut through his flesh and the magical acid had burned another scar into his chest. Now that the adrenaline was fading the pain was coming on quickly.

Once he has finished healing he puts the magic items in a different pile and tells the others how strong the magic is. Then he takes spellbook and mysterious stick for later analysis as it seems unlikely that anyone else can use either.

Shall we take the distribution of treasure to the OOC thread?

"Can anyone check this spellbook for magical traps?"

[WyvernLord]

Blinking his eyes clear of the magic Harfil looks around to see the fallen foes.
"Thank you all for the save. I wish I had been more effective."

[danzibr]

After everyone's healed, Klar'ith, along with anyone willing to assist him buries the deceased Goblins according to their typical customs.

The only items which appear to have any sort of magic are the stick, the potion, one of the longswords and the spellbook.

A single-story shabby hut is built off the northern side of the side road partially into the base of the mountains, roughly twenty five feet wide and fifteen feet deep. The walls are made of stone but look rather precarious. The lone door has been swung open.

[Linguz]

Shanar goes to check inside the building.

[danzibr]

Inside, Shanar sees it's a single large room with dirty mats meant for sleeping on the left and supplies strewn about. The only furniture is a small wooden table with four chairs about it, all but one knocked over.

[hoverfrog]

After spending time tending the wounds of the voldur and burying the dead, Klar'ith follows Shanar into the crude building and helps though he expects that the search will have been thoroughly completed by the time he is ready. He double checks the bedding and each wall for anything hidden away.

"I suggest we head back and return in the morning once we're done here. Agreed?"

If we can make a rough travois or litter to carry back the loot from the material available then he helps to construct it.

Search check (1d20+3)[23]

[danzibr]

Beneath a loose floor board Klar'ith finds 180 gold in various coins, likely the Goblins' stash from killing passersby.

The party returns without any hitches to Birch. The surviving Goblin doesn't have the energy to struggle.

Poppy and Rhokag agree to buy the gear at half market value.

[danzibr]

Klar'ith takes numerous precautions before opening the spellbook. It appears to not be extraordinary whatsoever, beyond beyond a spellbook.

It's rather sparse as spellbooks go. For cantrips it has only Daze and Prestidigitation. It also has Shield, Mage Armor, Color Spray, Glitterdust, and Acid Arrow.

The potion is a potion of Cure Light Wounds (caster level 3rd).
