[Gobtales] Nightwatch

[Mirth]

D'Bruuhl listens to Rakanishu's whispered warning and casts a sidelong glance at the toad. He then moves up to the bar, pulls out a stool and gets ready to sit down.

"We gobs have no problem with waiting for Majkis to return," he says to the woman. "In the meantime, why don't you rustle us up something to eat and drink ... and none of that SPECIAL brew, either. We want the straight stuff."

He sits on the stool and turns to the others. "Why don't you all help the lady here ... uh ... clean up ... while she gets our vittles," D'Bruuhl motions with his hands in the general area around the toad and uses his eyes to indicate the toad to Rakanishu.

 

[Mirth]

D'Bruuhl also draws his short sword and lays it on the bar in front of him. It looks as though he was just trying to make himself more comfortable on the stool, but in reality it is so that he may have his weapon at the ready, if need be.

OOC: I just added this bit to bump the thread, since the boards are normalizing again and I wasn't sure if everybody knew to post or not.

Ashgyad sits down at the bar next to D'Bruuhl, and makes a show of counting his remaining crossbow bolts.

 

[Dalamar]

Glorath graps a chair for himself and sits. When ready, he starts grumbling about having to wait for having to deal with such a stupid human.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Rakanishu wanders around the room, casually looking at things. As he approaches the toad he leans against the wall next to it, acting ignorant to the person within. He unshoulders his crossbow and props it up against the wall.

Rakanishu then looks to D'Bruuhl, discreetly points a finger to the crossbow, then nods toward the toad vaguely.

Ok sorry the boards have been up and down, hopefully they're stable now.

The old woman gulps and seems speechless. "But... he's not in. He's not!"

As Rakanishu makes his way around the tables, a bolt shoots out from the mouth of the toad and just nicks the goblin. (1 point of damage). The woman starts screaming.

Initiative: Rakanishu, Ashgyad, D'Bruuhl, Goubido, Glorath, Man in toad, Old Woman

Haven't had time to do a map. Basically Rakanishu is about 20' away from the toad, which is in a corner. The rest of you are about 30' away from it. The old woman is about 10' away from D'Bruuhl. There's plenty of cover around; pillars, tables, the bar, and so on.

 

[garyh]

Ashgyad takes cover behind a table, loads his crossbow, and begins firing at the toad.

All the while, he mutters [gob]"I really need to refresh my spells at some point!!"[/gob]

 

[Mirth]

D'Bruuhl grabs his sword off the bar and rushes to protect the old woman and get her behind some cover so that she won't be hurt in melee.

"Majkis!" D'Bruuhl yells at the toad. "You had better stop firing! We outnumber you and all we want is to do a bit of business! We don't want bloodshed!"

[gob] "Try to tip the statue over, someone!" [/gob] D'Bruuhl yells to the others.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Rakanishu dives to the side and rolls behind a table and chairs. He then pushes the table over and puts a bead on the mouth of the toad with his crossbow.

 

[Dog Faced God]

Goubido runs and crashes into the statue at full tilt hoping to knock it over.

OOC: sorry I haven't posted for a while. I haven't been able to get the boards or the main site for just over a week. Hopefully they're back up now.
