Civil war, Gyradan

[BizzaroStormy]

Adrius thinks to himself outside the tavern. Hmm...that didn't work. Maybe... He clears his throat and speaks angrily in the goblin tongue. {Damnit, where are those 4? They should have reported in an hour ago.}

[Shademan]

the goblins look at each other in disbelieve. More whispering. the elderly looking goblin shakes his head slowly and whisper something that make the other goblins giggle.

[BizzaroStormy]

Annoyed Adruis walks up to the table with the goblins and lowers his voice a bit. He speaks the the elder goblin. {Ok, its obvious now that you arent stupid so why don't you just play nice and tell me about your relationship with the prince}

[Shademan]

the goblins look at each other. unsure what to think.
one reaches slowly for a axe, the elder looks at another goblin, the third just stare at him while the fourth grins, showing all his small fangs "why, i AM the prince!" he whispers to the wolfman.

[BizzaroStormy]

{Care to elaborate on that?} He Looks at the gobbo reaching for his axe. {The second your hand touches that axe is the second your head will hit the floor.}

[Shademan]

the goblin growls lowly "i have killed far bigger beasts than you, and ridden of far larger wolves."
"easy now. no reason to be so hostile." the goblin claiming the prince title whispers "we are, after all allies. I am Rumskank. Firstborn son of the goblin king. we were merely in town when you stumbled into our usual inn here..." the goblin attempts a winning smile. it would prolly' work had you been a goblin.
but are not.

[BizzaroStormy]

He takes a seat at the goblins' table, keeping his guard up. {Ah, the Goblin prince.} He give a signal to the rest of the group to just forget about it. {My apologies, seems a couple wires got crossed. But if you are the prince though, why would you be in this kind of tavern?}

[Shademan]

"this IS the closest settlement to the goblin city. All our trade goes trough this little town" he says and offers a cup of wine.
"and to be honest, we goblins would like to keep it that way... so I came here to oversee the military build-up in this town. we are dreadfully close to the damned elves." he says and take a swig from his cup "i believe thats why youre here..." he grins.

Zazalemal stands and approaches the goblins' table. "I assume that you filthy mongrels understand Common. The gutterspeak you're spewing tries my patience."

[BizzaroStormy]

Not exactlty tactful are you?

[Shademan]

all the goblins looks shocked at him. "You respectless..." one growls and tries to hit the drow in the gut (he is standing on a chair)
(1d20+2)[16]
potential nonlethal damage: (1d4)[3]

[BizzaroStormy]

Attack - (1d20+4)[19]
Sap Damage - (1d4)[2]
Sneak Attack, Sudden Strike - (4d6)[11]

Adrius whacks the stab-happy drow in the head with a sap.

[Innis Cabal]

Ahuhi stands from the table as well, giving the last remaining person a nod and a wink

"Let the other talk if you can not keep your trash tongue in your mouth, do you want to cause a scene?"

[Shademan]

you count as beeing flatfooted, drow. you only take damage from the wolf.

[mangosta71]

Zazalemal brushes the goblin's hand aside. "You may be all chummy with these things, but I want to know why they're spying on us."

Turning to Adrius, he snarls, "If you value your life, you will never touch me again, maggot."

[Innis Cabal]

Ahuhi sigh's deeply

"Then ask that next time. Being direct is better then simply being rude"

[Shademan]

"you just be glad i didnt use my axe!" the goblin spits.
by now the other patrons have retreated.
"calm down, Siegfrepp. Gyradan wouldnt like it if we killed one of his special commandos." the goblin prince laughs.

[BizzaroStormy]

Adrius chuckles at the prince's use of the word "special". You'll have to excuse my associate. He can get to be a little rude.

[mangosta71]

"He would not. Nor would he care if I redecorated this inn with pieces of goblin. I'll ask nicely once more before I get angry - why are you spying on us?"

[Shademan]

"not any worse than a Orc in the morning." The prince says smugly "now, i dont know much of WHAT youre going to do. all i have heard is that you shall strike the elves. is it sabotage? or perhaps a assassination?"
The elder goblin searchs for something in his coat...
*Drow talks.
"spy? i was merely interested in you. you...caught my curiosity." the Goblin smiles to the drow

[BizzaroStormy]

Adrius keeps a careful eye one the searching goblin. Spot if needed - (1d20+14)[16] we were actually discussing that. We haven't quite agreed on a plan of action. {I personally find my allies' plans to be in quite horrible taste.}

[Shademan]

"oh? care to tell what these plans are? perhaps i can help?" the goblin prince says.
The elderly goblin pulls out a want, points at the Drow and mutters "Habbadah"

[BizzaroStormy]

Adrius describes the group's various plans in goblinese and expresses his disgust with said plans.

[Shademan]

"well... the drow has a point. Thats a VERY effective way to spread terror. why do think there is so many half-orcs?" he takes a sip from his cup " but what YOU need... is knowledge about the elven road..."

the elderly goblin picks his nose with the wand and puts it back.

[Innis Cabal]

"Then let us not beat around the proverbel bush any longer. We would apperciate any information you can give us. The sooner the better so we can be out of this place and getting payed."

[Shademan]

" the elves use a road that will look like sticks and stones and rubbish and nothing to anyone who is non-elvish or impure." the prince whispers cryptic "the can be seen however by simply pouring flour on it. you will see the flour hit the elven cobblestone and the elves, in their arrogance, think that no one knows of the road." the goblin smiles, showing his winning....goblin....teeth....

[Innis Cabal]

Flour?

Ahuhi shrugs and folds his arms up into his robes

"Then we might as well get to baking, if that is what it takes."

[mangosta71]

"There's a slight problem with that. Dump a bunch of flour on the ground in the forest, and someone is going to notice it. They'll see that and be expecting something. If we're going to do it this way, we'll need to mark the path some other way and then clean the flour off of it."

[Shademan]

"the elves wont realize it before its too late." the goblin snicker.
"hows your bruises coming?" the elderly goblin asks the drow "did they heal nicely?"

Spoiler

heals 7 points of non-lethal damage.
wand :P

[Innis Cabal]

You forget, only the driver will be looking at the road, the others will be inside relaxing, with no thought as to how we will attack them. It will be a simple job to change what he sees, he will drive through and we will capture him.
