Crown of the Kobold King

[Corpseflower]

The alchemist hesitates to see if the others can manage without extending his limited resources. Meanwhile Luger catches the wolf in the doorway with a wide powerful swing. Bones crack and the unfortunate canine yelps pitifully as the blade slams it into the door frame.
Fangs barred it backs away from Luger with a deep rumbling growl working its way back down the entry hall before turning to run out the double doors into the courtyard. (F4, Withdraws)

The remaining wolf gives up on the warforged and moves in on the more familiar flesh and bone, but from every angle it nips and snaps Azog manages to fend it off with a blade or quickly step out of danger.

With his attention focused on the wolf in the doorway, the worg lunges low at Luger's legs from behind grabbing hold and savaging the more fragile connective fibers and cables. The worg shakes him for all he is worth, but it would take a lot topple such a heavy construct. The beast then edges back between the pillar and nearest pew jaws wide waiting for anyone daring to follow.
Damage: 6 [-2 DR = 4] Trip: 9. Beat a 9 with a Str or Dex check. (5' to D2)

Turn fires with his crossbow again, but the bolt glances off the pillar.

Azog calls out to Fang, ordering him to 'Flank' as he moves forward into [E2]. Fang moves behind Aidan and into flanking position at [C2].

"Not feeling so damned smug now, are you runt?" says Azog as he swings at the Worg.
+2 Flanking (1d20+5+2=26, 1d8+3=8)
Thats a 19. Critical Threat.
Confirm: +2 Flanking, Confirm (1d20+5+2=19, 1d8+3=4)

Fang, slides in, snarling, but inflicts little more than a flesh wound.
+2 Flanking (1d20+3+2=18, 1d6+1=2)

[Voda Vosa]

Dimzel decides to take a chance against the nearest foe. He gathers the cold around him in a icy sphere, that suddenly becomes a thin frost ray.

[Corpseflower]

Nails scrabble on the stone floor and Fang pulls back around the pillar and Aidan. Azog covers himself with his shield as he sides in to pursue the worg circling around to flank with Fang, but still it finds it opportunity and lashes out ripping into the half-orc just below the knee. Fang jumps to his companion's defense biting into the worg's throat growling as it rips fur and angles for a more vital grip. Azog reacts instinctively drawing back his sword arm high over his head and plunging down in a deadly arc. The blade cleaves through the enormous shaggy wolf's ribs and back paralyzing it instantly and dropping it to the floor in a growing pool of blood where it lies still, rasping its last breaths. "You'll... never... save them," it gasps face twisted in malice and spitting blood with each word. That said it's rasping breathing comes to an end and those baleful eyes stare on blankly.
Damage for Azog from AoO: 4

"Is that it? Well then, where to now?"

Luger will grab one of his oils of repair light wounds from his satchel and use it.

Repair Light Wounds (1d8+1=8)

That seems to fix the damage he's accrued so-far.

 

[Corpseflower]

Luger shakes the lone remaining wolf free, and it seems to lose it's drive to fight when it sees its mate dead. It backs out to run tail between it's legs.

[Edited for consistency.]

 

[Corpseflower]

For the last 2 encounters together- 450 xp each.

(I'm unsure on my bearings. I assume we can go a couple different ways at this point?)

 

[Corpseflower]

Several options.

There are 2 metal spiral stairs in the NE and SE corners of the chapel. The worg had mentioned upstairs as being the home of chokers he wanted to get rid of.

There is a door on the south wall of the chapel.

From just outside the chapel doors the hall went north and south.

To the south the hall extends 30' with a couple of doors across from each other about halfway down the hall.

To the north the hall turns right. Presumably it would meet up with the hallway you looked down when you tried the north door in the courtyard. You had seen a couple of doors when checking from there.

The trail of kobolds was fairly easy to make out since the hallway near the entry is caked with the muck of wet leaves and decades of debris. Azog had marked it as heading north, and Fang tracking Kimi's scent concurred.
