[QUOTE="Raidkillsbugsdead, post: 3777292, member: 54134"] So anyway, we made it past all those nests of the smaller birds to get to one of those cave openings we saw on the other side of the opening. It was pretty clear to us once we got in there that it was where those bigger birds nested. That one we had hurt back on the road was laid up in one of the five big nests in the room we came into. A quick thrust of my rapier put it out of its misery soon enough. We saw that the two openings to this chamber from that bigger nesting room joined up just inside the room...still didn't know about where that other opening led though. Not that it mattered much at the time though, 'cause right after we entered the big birds' room, two kobolds came walking out from a tunnel on the far side of the room. They took one look at us and took off running down that tunnel before we could do anything about it. Something about a seven foot plus half orc wielding a great sword and a dwarf with a big giant hammer must have put a fright into them or something. Yeah, so we took off after them as quick as we could, though that wasn't as quick as we might have liked. The good things about kobolds is they're small and easy to waste...the bad thing is that they're small and live in places with small tunnels. Squeezing my five and a half foot self through those tunnels was hard enough...imagine the trouble Ortuk had getting through them. By the time we made it into the next chamber, those two kobolds had become four, and they were ready for us with their slings and darts. Luckily their aim stunk; unluckily, the big guy made his way across the room in a charge of fury only to fall into the pit trap in the middle of the room. Naturally, he would also have to deal with the big spider that made its home down there. While Ortuk dealt with that little problem he "stepped" into, the rest of us did our best to take out those little dudes on the other side of the room. Didn't take us too long to take out three and send the other running. Sticking to our basic plan, we followed up, stopping only long enough to drag the big guy out of that pit. After a bit of hurried pursuit and a few wrong turns, we split up at a fork, and my crew came into the main chamber of this little group of kobolds. They must've had some bad luck recently, cause there were only about half a dozen of the males and and equal number of women kobolds in there. The ladies hung back and threw rocks at us while the guys came at us with spears. They gave us more trouble than you might think...our aim turned out to be as bad as theirs. Not too long into our little fight, the other half of our group came out around a bend in the room and was right away attacked by the leader of this little bunch...a kobold who could fly. Yes, that's what I said... I only saw the tail end of him, cause by the time we had offed the adult kobolds in the room, he was already swooping out down a side passage after figuring out we weren't a group to be messed with. Kind of strange seeing a kobold with big bat wings flying away from you, but there you go. Satisfied that we had helped rid the world of this little clan of bandits after looking through all the side tunnels of their lair, we made our way out and back to the road to the city. [/QUOTE]
