D&D 5E (IC) (OneShot) JustinCase's Within The Circle

The first goblin to enter the room ducks swiftly under Gorir's hammer, and the creature looks at the dwarf with a menacing look. It raises a rusty scimitar, but before it has a chance to use it on the dwarf, James steps in and with his dagger cuts a bloody line across the goblin's back. James' other dagger just misses its mark, but the attack gives Gorir the opportunity to swing his warhammer around, hitting the creature squarely in the face and crushing its skull.

The other two goblins, suddenly realizing they may be in over their heads, look at each other in panic. One starts talking in a hurried, scared tone, and the other responds with an angry command. The bossy goblin takes a step forward, clumsily swings its scimitar at Gorir, who sidesteps the attack easily, then the goblin moves back several feet. The other one darts back into the other room, running straight for the door on the other side.

Meanwhile, Thadius and Magdalena are trying to get rid of the mlarraun snakes. The tiefling, growing ever more frustrated, keeps swinging his mace but the serpent moves just out of reach and Thadius hits nothing but rock. Magdalena, however, hits the snake that just bit her with her dagger, then for good measure hits it with the burning torch as well. Finally it remains motionless, and the paladin, ready to hit it again if it moves, decides it is truly dead.

The other snake, injured by Thadius and now seeing its mate die, crawls back deeper into the storage room, its upper body still raised and ready to launch another gobble of poisonous spit to anyone following it.

OOC: Mlarraun 1 retreats to AB-15.
Mlarraun 2 is killed by Magdalena.
Goblin 1 is killed by Gorir and James.
Goblin 2 attacks Gorir, then takes Nimble Escape to Disengage, and moves to AH-4.
[roll0] (miss) for [roll1]
Goblin 3 runs away at full speed.

I will include a map shortly. Edit: Map included.

"Shut the door! That one has lost its fight." Thadius says leaving Magdalena to decide for herself. The tiefling hearing the commotion from the other door rushes to help the dwarves (and James).

"Get the other quickly." he hisses at the group.

His lordship was right the goblin could not be left to run free and alert the others, if they haven't all ready heard that is. James rushes after the goblin and attempts to wrestle the small creature to the ground.

Gorir,

The sight of the fleeing goblin causes concern. Choosing a reckless approach Gorir pushes past the defending goblin heading directly for the fleeing one. Taking a more final approach Gorir swings his warhammer, shattering the goblins spine.

Round 3

With the snake driven off, Magdalena stepped back and closed the door.

“Someone should take care of that. Burn it with fire,” the paladin said, taking a moment to heal herself a little. Her hand glowed as she pressed it to the bite wounds on her legs.

Closing the door between her and the remaining snake, Magdalena takes a moment to invoke Helm's blessing. As she places a hand on her injured leg, she feels the sublime sensation of divine healing; her flesh mends while her soul sings out in devotion. Leaning on the door to avoid it from re-opening, the paladin shifts her weight back on both legs, the closed wound now just a nagging feeling.

Meanwhile Thadius has moved to the other door, engaging one of the goblins in combat. However, at the same time Gorir moves between the tiefling and his opponent in order to reach the fleeing guard, causing Thadius' morningstar to miss its target to avoid hitting the dwarf; the noble's temper worsening by the moment.

As Gorir runs past the first goblin, it takes advantage of the opportunity to swing its rusty scimitar at him desperately, but hits only a shield. Barely noticing the attack, the dwarf charges the other foe, seeing James beat him to it and try to grapple the goblin in order to avoid an alarm being raised deeper into the complex. Despite the goblin's clumsy evasion movement, James can't get a grip on the slippery little creature.

However, the half-elf's failed attempt allows Gorir to catch up and with a mighty swing, the dwarf's warhammer crushes the goblin's spine as it gets stuck between the mighty weapon and the unyielding floor.

The last remaining goblin, seeing his two allies go down so easily, spits in frustration, then throws its blade to the floor and raises its arms in surrender.

OOC: Goblin 3: Opposed check for grapple: [roll0] (just made it!)
Goblin 2: Opportunity attack versus Gorir: [roll1] (miss) for [roll2] damage

Fight is over; last goblin surrenders and last snake is trapped behind the door. You can post in any order.

"As unsporting as it is killing a unarmed foe, I fail to see by scenario where he lives. Oh abs we should deal with that snake I want to see what's in there" James mutters as he wipes goblin skull from his attire.

"I say we let the goblin deal with the snake problem for us." the tiefling says with a menacing grin. "Either way we will be getting rid of one of our two obstacles."

The barbarian kicks the rusty scimitar across the floor away from the goblin. "Someone watch the door the other was headed to. Until we figure this out."

Gorir

Gorir apologises to Thadius, then heads towards the door the goblin was trying to reach. Stopping in front of it he listens carefully to what might be on the other side.

Thadius glares at the dwarf for a moment. And as his anger dies down he says, "Just be more careful next time. I might have brained you accidentally."

OOC: Rage ends after that.
