Group 2, Episode 2: Greenest in Flames

[Computer +1]

Urth Stormwind

Urth follows after the others happy to deal with kobolds and leave the dragon be for now.

[Dram]

Tarq- Dashes off a few seconds behind Catrina taking a opposite approach to the building.

Stealth roll[1d20+7] = 12+7 = 19

[Scott308]

Dureau Sathaos

The cleric follows along, content to keep picking off kobolds, allowing the stealthy members of the party to approach quietly before casting his spell.

Toll the Dead (WIS 13): [1d8] = 6; if injured: [1d12] = 7

Initiative Order

• 16: Tarq, Dureau
• 13: Urth
• 12: Kobolds
• 10: Locals
• 7: Catarina
• 3: Kañ-Demir, Grimbul

Ransacking
"Are we really heading towards that dragon?" Urth questions; ever aware of the looming threat circling overhead. "If that thing notices us, we're dead."

"Stay low to the grass, then, long-legs!" Kañ-Demir responds as he begins sprinting forward, towards the building being harassed by kobolds, followed by the rest of the party.

At Grimbul's suggestion, the stealthier members of the group branch off, circling around the large, single-story wooden structure to take position on the far side of the building. Dureau, Grimbul, and Urth take a more direct route and position themselves at the northeast corner, just outside the main entrance. A wooden sign at the main entrance is almost completely engulfed in flames, making it impossible to make out what the sign read. The flames threaten to spread to the structure itself before too long.

Catarina, Kañ-Demir, and Tarq circle around the building to the south, and become aware of a previously unknown second entrance along the far, southern side of the establishment. This scout team continues past this closed southern entrance and position themselves at the southeastern corner of the establishment, where they make visual with the other half of the group just north of them.

Stifled whimpering sounds can be heard between crashes of what sound like furniture being toppled over, and dishes being tossed and broken. The occasional hushed chirping of the kobold intruders conversing in their native language can barely be heard. Urth and Catrina, familiar with the draconic tongue, are unable to make out the complete conversation, but are able to make out a few words:

• Coins
  Gold
  Hurry

The crashing sounds continue; almost as if the place is being ransacked.


Beyond this new building of interest, the two groups of townsfolk continue to make their way towards the keep... hesitating, and cowering as the dragon, lazily flapping its large leathery wings, dives towards the keep but pulling up without attacking as it resumes its wide circle over the town.

      • In addition, you understand a set of secret signs and symbols used to convey short, simple messages, such as whether an area is dangerous or the territory of a thieves’ guild, whether loot is nearby, or whether the people in an area are easy marks or will provide a safe house for thieves on the run.

    Background: Far Traveler (Dwarf)
    • Feature: All Eyes on You
      • Your accent, mannerisms, figures of speech, and perhaps even your appearance all mark you as foreign. Curious glances are directed your way wherever you go, which can be a nuisance, but you also gain the friendly interest of scholars and others intrigued by far-off lands, to say nothing of everyday folk who are eager to hear stories of your homeland.
        
        You can parley this attention into access to people and places you might not otherwise have, for you and your traveling companions. Noble lords, scholars, and merchant princes, to name a few, might be interested in hearing about your distant homeland and people.

        A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions.

Rolls

• None

[BearSiren817]

Stifled whimpering sounds can be heard

...

Does this sound like Villagers? Or Kolbolds dealing with the fire? Or should I roll to see?

[dmw71]

Does this sound like Villagers? Or Kolbolds dealing with the fire? Or should I roll to see?

These are not kobold sounds.

[BearSiren817]

Catarina signals to Targ in thieves cant. “Villagers inside”. Realizing Kañ-Dem does not know the unfairly termed sign language (she’s not a thief!) she whispers to him “signal the others” She will enter the door depending on others actions! Feisty kitty always wanting to go go go.

[GreyWolfVT]

Grimbul rushes into the house having heard the whimpering sounds and draws his hand axe and hammer as he enters the home.

Initiative [1d20+1] = 4+1 = 5

[Pulpatoon]

Kañ-Demir begins to communicate by signs to the other group to rush the front door, but shrugs when he realizes that Grimbul is doing so anyway. He then turns and follows Catarina and Tarq to the side door.

[Scott308]

Dureau Sathaos

The cleric follows the more headstrong party members inside, casting Toll the Dead on a kobold, ideally one that has been injured.

Toll the Dead (WIS 13): [1d8] = 3; if injured: [1d12] = 8

[dmw71]

Initiative Order

• 16: Tarq, Dureau
• 13: Urth
• 8: Kañ-Demir
• 6: Catarina
• 3: Grimbul

Raiders
"Kontora," Catarina quietly whispers to Tarq positioned next to her; drawing a quizzical look from Kañ-Demir, standing between them. "Lim dodgies amon," the tabaxi continues in the cryptic thieves' cant. Tarq nods his understanding.

"Holdup."
"Five innocents held hostage."

Across the door, Grimbul bursts through the door launching a more hasty intervention!

The dwarf is able to quickly survey the interior of the structure he finds himself in.

The floor is coated in a white, powdery substance and is now littered with small, clawed footprints. The air appears cloudy, and his eyes register on minuscule white particles drifting to the ground after bags of flour were simply torn apart, spilling their contents everywhere!

Mounted shelves line the walls throughout; wooden display cabinets and racks, some now tipped over, are found in either direction; two low, cushioned seating benches back against the wall on either side of the main door; a table with four chairs.

A safe.

Seven kobolds.



Grimbul looks --

• Straight Ahead
  Just in front of him, maybe 15-feet in front of his position, a portly, middle-aged man wearing an apron huddles on the floor with his arms wrapped around his wife and three children.
  
  To his left
  Two kobolds are to his left, flanking the door in the southern wall, waiting to ambush anyone unexpected passing through.
  
  To his right
  A trio of kobolds surround the safe, attempting to pry it open with crude daggers; while another pair of kobolds are stuffing their faces with tasty treats they're ripping from the display cases.

The kobolds stop what they're doing and turn to face their unexpected dwarven guest. They snarl, and appear ready to abandon their current plans in order to eliminate this interruption.




---

I'm updating from work, so no map for this one. I may add one later if 'theater of the mind' is proving to be problematic.

I know others declared general follow-up actions, but I'm halting things after Grimbul's move and setting the scene there. No surprise.



Please declare any movement and/or actions for round 1.

        You can parley this attention into access to people and places you might not otherwise have, for you and your traveling companions. Noble lords, scholars, and merchant princes, to name a few, might be interested in hearing about your distant homeland and people.
