Raiders of Oakhurst, Group 1

[Abardam]

Erias and Riardon find their marks, and the kobolds drop to the floor! However, Tira's eldritch blast misses its target.

The remaining kobolds swarm around Kathra! The two in front attack with spears ((1d20+5)[16], and (1d20+5)[12], both for 2 damage) and the sentry at the back draws and throws another spear ((1d20+8)[16], for (1d8)[6] damage). Two skirmishers also arrive, drawn by the alarm!

((Also, Skamos: the secondary attack might hit (I don't think it's dependent on the primary attack, anyway))

Skamos hurls an orb of force at one of the two kobolds in front, which explodes and hurls shards of force in every direction! The kobold dodges it, but the shards ((1d20+5)[8], (1d10+5)[10]) also miss!

The Sunlord steps forward and swings with his mace, but the skirmisher ducks under it, spear ready for a counterattack! But then Riardon fires one arrow at each of them, making them groan in pain! Tira then throws another eldritch blast, but it is again dodged! However Kathra makes up for it as her axe cleaves into the almost-lucky kobold, felling two in one blow! Corrin then steps up and challenges the sentry, attacking at the same time!
The kobold dodges his slash and thrusts his spear at him ((1d20+6)[12], (1d8)[8])! And then the two newcomers both attack Erias ((1d20+7)[17], (1d8)[5], (1d20+7)[18], (1d8)[2])!
Skamos fires a magic missile at the sentry (10 damage)!

Varkaze, the hobgoblin warcaster, joins the fight! He surveys the battle, and summons a lance of force ((1d20+7)[25] vs reflex, (2d8+4)[6]) throwing Erias into the fire (for 2 additional damage)!

Erias gets out of the fire and heals himself for 12. Riardon lets fly an arrow toward the warcaster, but it strikes only the cave wall! Tira attacks the hobgoblin's eyesight, and deals 7 damage! (Plus 2.) Kathra swings her axe and drops the first skirmisher! The momentum carries the axe into the second one, but he saw it coming and dodged it. Corrin opts to finish off the sentry, but he misses!

Edging slowly away from Corrin, the kobold takes a stab at him ((1d20+6)[14], (1d8)[2]). Then he gingerly moves into the caltrops. ((In case you're counting: shift, standard action attack, shift, since kobolds shift as a minor action.))
The remaining skirmisher looks around and suddenly spots the warlock, somehow behind him. He moves back to challenge her, but as he does so, the fighter spots an opening and strikes! (Opportunity attack - (1d20+6)[16], (1d10+5)[7].) The kobold still stands, however, and he attacks Tira! ((1d20+6)[24], (1d8)[3])

Skamos waves his hands and casts his sleep magic ((burst 2 means 2 squares from the center, so a 9x9 square I think))! Its victim/s feel woozy, but the hobgoblin is resilient to such magics and uses his HOBGOBLIN RESILIENCE to make an immediate saving throw! ((Not counting this as the "first" saving throw, I'd say the one on his turn is the first saving throw. (1d20)[2])

Varkaze looks around for the impudent half-elf, but, not seeing her, settles on the closest other target: he throws a FORCE PULSE at the fighter! ((1d20+7)[25] against Reflex; (2d8+4)[11] damage) Kathra is struck by the blast, but she grits her teeth and remains standing and unmoved!
(Kathra's save to remain standing: (1d20)[12])

E: Varkaze's eyelids droop, and he slumps to the floor, snoring like a guard.

@bchilders: Your hp is now 21

The Sunlord confronts the fleeing kobold, but the kobold nimbly avoids his slash! Riardon looses another arrow, and this time, it strikes scaly flesh! The remaining skirmisher slumps, an arrow in his heart! Tira takes advantage of the warcaster's current condition and hurls damaging energy at him! And Kathra viciously eviscerates him (also, it's a crit)! Corrin strikes once more at the sentry, and the kobold's flesh sizzles as the Amauntor-touched sword slices his scales!

The sentry weighs his options. Seeing his comrade fall and the big hobgoblin leader unconscious on the floor, he decides to slip away. He hops nimbly over the stream and streaks away into the darkness. (Shift, double move. I included his path if you want to follow or something?)

Skamos places the final nail in the warcaster's coffin with a well-aimed magic missile!

Bloody kobold. He'll surely try to alert his allies, but no use chasing kobolds in dark tunnels. Grumbling, Skamos proceeds to search the cave for anything interesting.

[Suzuro]

Aye....if we chase, we're sure to run into an ambush. Panting.


I say we take an unexpected route, and they;ll ne'er see us comin'.


-Suzuro

[bchilders]

Erias

Agreed, but let's get moving so they don't catch us here unaware

The Sunlord checks himself to make sure his healing handled the worst of his wounds. Seeing that there are only a few scratches left he decides to hold off on any more healing.

So which way do we head?

[WillWolf]

Riardon:

Riardon looks deep into the cavern, and says: "I worry for the villagers. I expected some scaled-rats not goblins," he replied, "this operation is bigger than we expected, and they might seek revenge against the villagers."

[playswithfire]

Corrin
Well, we have three choices. The cavern on the left, the cavern on the right and the one up there that the goblin just ran through. He gestures to each with his sword as he speaks. If I thought we could catch up to him, I'd say lets go after him right now, but we probably won't, at least not now that we didn't give chase immediately. As it is, I'd recommend at least a quick check the other caverns (assuming their not too deep) to avoid leaving any passages behind us that a second group could come from and surround us later.

[EvilRoeSlade]

Tira

Tira just shrugs and smiles. Whatever you wish. I can't imagine that I'll be in serious danger regardless of what happens. She gestures to the left cavern and begins to start down it, but only continues if the rest go as well.

[bchilders]

Erias

The Sunlord follows, ready to be off and see what secrets the rest of these caverns hold.
