Jokad goes charging forward towards the throne of Ripnugget, intent on chopping the head off the incessant and confident little goblin. As he moves, Jovik throws the last remaining pot of harpy musk into the air towards the centre of the room. It clips a piller, bounces, smashes, and a thick, mucus-like liquid splashes out. The stench is pretty darn foul.Almost immediately you can see the once cocky goblins faces pale and screw up in distaste. The jostling crowd of thirty or forty women and children who line the back wall break at once, piling for the doors and window, trying to escape the stench. There is chaos unfolding around you.Then Jokad piles in. Almost the second that Ripnugget spits out his last slur, Jokad's axe bites. Ripnugget screams in anger and pain as the curved edge of the axe sends a sliver of his shoulder flesh and armour off into the air. A mist of blood specks showers the throne.Ripnugget is standing now, his hand easily gathering up the dogslicer that lay resting under it. Below the throne and to the side of Jokad, the giant gecko rises too, moving to engage.Kael moves next, completing his spell and sending a magic missile flying towards the warchanter. Two flashes of magical energy surge forth from his hand, darting past the pillars and the unfolding chaos, and striking at the warchanter. The bolts hit her hard, and she falls dead, her song ended. The sight of her instantaneous death appears to have frightened the women and children even more, and what was a stampede from the smell is now a full-on rout.WARCHANTER DOWNOOC: Friadoc: Kael is still level 2 for some reason, but everyone leveled up to 3 at the end of the glassworks/catacombs. That means that you need to update your character sheet ASAP. Also, you now get 2 missiles per magic missile attack. I just doubled damage on this one. Please update Kael as soon as possible. OOC: Rhun - the warchanter is down, so I will assume that target is on the bottom two commandos.Danth moves next, casting heat metal on the two commandos nearest. The first <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1606099/" target="_blank">instantly drops his glowing blade</a> , but the second manages to hold on, albeit with a look of real fear on his face now. What demons have come to destroy them!!!!OOC: The surprise round ends. Now for the DC14 saves against the harpy musk. <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1606100/" target="_blank">All fail their saves except for the same commando who survived the heat metal. He should get a medal for bravery, except that he is almost certainly about to die.</a>The stench of the harpy musk is high now, and the bottom and top doors are both thrown open as the weaker goblins flood out of the room in chaos. The commandos and ripnugget stand their ground, looking concerned now, seeing the ease with which you dispatched the warchanter. Seeing the ease with which you turned the morale of the goblins. Then the stench starts to hit them, and they gag and look shaken and upset by the smell. It doesn't smell too good to you guys either, but nothing worse than some of the other strange medicines and poultices you have been forced to use as a child.All of the goblins that remain in the room look very shaken, except for one commando, nearest the door you entered, who, while gingerly holding a rapidly heating blade, looks ready to engage Jovik. The others, looking less up for the fight than they did only a second or two before, move gingerly to engage. One is unarmed, his hands blistered from his heated sword. The other runs at Jokad, keen to help his master.OOC: apologies for the slight delay - forums down last night for a few hours. Round 1 follows.</blockquote>
