[Gobquest] Part 2

[dreamthief]

Goubido's whip dagger lashes out and tears out a chunk of the spider. Glorath's arrow and Ashgyad's bolt slam into the spider at the same time, sending it backward. It staggers back, remains standing for a while then collapses; its ochre seeping out.

The celestial badger makes a whining sound, turns around and is gone.
Out of combat

 

[Festy_Dog]

Rakanishu sticks out his tongue at the dead creatures.

[gob]"Certainly unpleasant woods,"[/gob] he says grimly as he looks upon Goubido's wound, [gob]"But I say they find us just as if not more unpleasant. You okay Goubido?"[/gob]

 

[Mirth]

D'Bruuhl quickly surveys the area to see if any other dangers are present. If not, he turns to help the other goblins.

[gob]"Let me take a look at that bite, Goubido,"[/gob] the cleric says as he inspects the wound for traces of poison. [gob]"Well you seem to have gotten lucky ... mostly. Do you wish for me to call on the divine grace of my lord to heal you or would you rather I try to mend what I can with my pouch of herbs and poultices?"[/gob]

 

[Dog Faced God]

Goubido wiped the blade of his whip dagger on the corpse of the newly felled spider. He muttered in goblin, almost to himself, "Save your magics, D'Bruuhl." He was looking carefully into the trees. "Spiders have webs or lair here. Maybe eat Jazzad?"

 

[dreamthief]

Goubido sees something on the grounds of the forest, about 30' away to the left of the path. Something pale and yellowish-white and still...

and no you can't see it here but just to build the mood..

 

[garyh]

Ashgyad agreed with his companion. "Goubido has a good point. We should find these spiders' lair," the conjurer said. "It's reasonable to think Jazzad could have fallen prey to them."

OOC: Sorry I was away, folks. Thanks for acting for Ashgyad and keeping the game going, dreamthief! That's just what he would have done if I was here.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Rakanishu nods in agreement with the others.

[gob]"I think we should locate Jazzad before we go hunting spiders,"[/gob] Rakanishu suggests.

 

[Dog Faced God]

"Not hunting spiders. Spiders dead." Goubido spat on one of the corpses. "Hunt Jazzad... or his corpse. That might be it." He extended his arm, one clawed forefinger and a thumb. Peering down his shoulder with one eye scrunched shut; almost as if sighting in with a crossbow he whispered, "Right there." Slowly he walked off of the path, and into the trees.

 

[dreamthief]

I assume Goubido is going towards the pale and yellowish-white point

The companions brush aside some cobwebs and take tentative steps forwards. The remnants of the spider's victims are strewn about, amongst their webs. Rabbits, birds, boars, wild dogs and there's a being wrapped up in webbing that you judge to be about 4' tall. Certainly not a human ranger. An inferior short sword lies on the ground next to the coccooned being.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Rakanishu, not having put his sword away yet from the fight, carefully goes over to cut away the webbing.

[gob]"Whats the bet theres a goblin in there?"[/gob] he pauses for a moment before starting, [gob]"Whats the bet there's spiders in there?[/gob]

Rakanishu carefully attempts to slice open the cocoon with his shortsword, all to ready to hop back in case of spiders.

[gob]"Hope either of you guys have a nice spell for this occasion,"[/gob] he says to D'Brhuul and Ashgyad nervously.
