D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

"Well, I guess that didn't work. Oh well, can't win 'em all..."

Dandin watches chaos ensue for a moment. Wolf-Titus disappeared behind one building, Enseth, behind another. For his own part, Dandin was now just too far away to do anything useful. So he ran, hoping to catch up.

OOC:

Move/dash to CC 27?

Unaware that others are not following him towards the docks, Tommi continues South. His eye is tracking Orb, which hovers next to the remaining archer. As the Hobgoblin is distracted, Tommi loads his sling, and with an underhand swing lobs a stone, hoping to hit the archer in the skull.

OOC:

Round 5.
Move 30' South, to CF 39.
Action: Attack HobArcher2 with Magic Stone. Advantage (help from Orb): better of [roll0] and [roll1]. If a hit, damage = [roll2] (with Sneak Attack).
Bonus: Dodge.

If anyone ends their turn within 5' of Tommi, reaction to move 15' away.
Stones left: 2.

Round 5

Scanning the town to the left, Angis saw it mostly clear. He crept along the side of the building after Enseth. When he got to the other corner, he spotted the hobgoblin archer. He shifted his magical mark to the archer and fired his crossbow at the hobgoblin being harried by Orb.

Tommi vs HobArcher2

Tommi ran toward the docks. He wasn't sure what he could do if he arrived there by himself, but he hoped it would be heroic. Spinning his head to the side, he saw a hobgoblin drawing an arrow while ducking under ORB4. Before the hobgoblin could aim at him, he slung a stone that struck the brute right between the eyes. The hobgoblin's face screwed up, and it fell to the ground. The arrow dropped harmlessly at his feet.

Angis vs Bannerman1

Angis came to the corner of the building and raised his crossbow toward the archer. Before he could settle his mark, he saw the stone strike and the hobgoblin fall. Then suddenly, the hobgoblin with the bloody banner was there in front of him, seemingly out of nowhere. The goblin stood between Angis and Tommi, and swung the banner overhead in a wide arc. The fabric of the banner hid the fiendish spikes on the ends of the cross-bars, and both Angis and Tommi were scraped by them as the banner passed around.

Then Angis settled his mark on the hobgoblin and put a quarrel deep into the villain's chest at close-range. The hobgoblin gasped and staggered, but through some crazed will of zealotry, the hobgoblin did not fall.

GM:

Bannerman is tough.
Damage Taken:
(BGs) HArcher2 17 (Tommi's stone, Dead); HBannerman1 22 (Angis' quarrel)

Titus rushes towards the girl and the hobgoblin, ready to pounce once he gets there.

OOC:

If attack: [roll0] or [roll1] Plus a DC 11 Str Save or be knocked prone.

Dandin, Morwin, Tituswolf, & Zasha vs Hobgoblin2

Zasha ducked away from the Hobgoblin, kicking him in the shin and she ran around the corner of the building. But the hobgoblin was right behind her, and she was sure that it would catch her before she made the next corner. Then, in the shadows, she saw two eyes glowing in the dark: A wolf! She stopped dead in her tracks and the hobgoblin grabbed her from behind. The wolf snarled and leapt at her, and she thought she would die - but the wolf went right over her and crashed heavily into the chest of the hobgoblin!

So fixated on her was the hobgoblin, that he had not seen the wolf until the last moment. The hobgoblin let go of the girl and fell on his back with the wolf on top. The wolf snapped at his face, biting his cheek and tearing at the flesh. The hobgoblin hollered in pain and fear.

Zasha moved to get away, but she saw another pair of glowing eyes. These two were much smaller and a winged cat flew up to her and to her surprise, it landed in her arms.

Dandin ran to catch up with the others, and he ducked into the lane between buldings. He wasn't sure at first where Titus and Morwin were going in the dark of the lane, but then he heard the holler of the hobgoblin and he could just make out the girl in the shadows at the other end of the lane.

Damage Taken:
(BGs) Hobgoblin2 6 & knocked prone (Wolf);

Enseth & Averiel vs GoblinBully2

As the goblin slavers tried to rush the group of Julkounians to the docks, one of the goblins broke off and ran toward the west, presumably heading for the Town Shrine and the other prisoners.

Another goblin approached the fighting and fired his bow at Enseth as the Shield Guardian stepped between Angis and the hobgoblin bannerman. His little arrow pinged off of Enseth's shield and the Shield Guardian switched to offensive mode, spinning his shield and slamming the hobgoblin bannerman with his Battlefist.

Averiel ran into the open and returned fire on Enseth's behalf at the goblin, striking him in the leg.

GM:

Have we lost Fradak or is he just on extended vacation? It's been awhile.
Damage Taken:
(BGs) Bannerman1 5 (Enseth's Battlefist); GoblinBully2 8 (Averiel's Arrow);

Suddenly Dandin understood what had drawn Tidus away from the others. He wasn't sure how best to help, but getting the girl away and out of immediate danger seemed best at this point. Moving up he called out to her.

"It's okay! He's a friendly wolf, he won't hurt you! Come over here and we'll protect you!

As the girl came to him he ushered her to a spot against the wall. And held his finger up to his lips. Now he spoke more quietly, almost conspiratorially to her.

"Good. Now, we're going to hide you way in an imaginary box. Don't worry, nobody will know it's imaginary but us. Now crouch down and try to be extra quiet, like a cat. There... and You're in a box!"

OOC:

I'm making a bit of an assumption here, but at least I rolled a boss Persuasion:: 1d20+7 25 check. Minor illusion to create the image of a crate up against the wall of the building where Zasha stops.

Move to BX 28, I think she gets to BY 27 assuming she follows his advice.
