OOC: No long rest for us, I guess!


Hrgach grumbled as he was awakened from sleep by a scream. He grabbed his greatsword and got up quickly from the ground, looking around for danger. He looked down toward the cabin.

“Came from there,” he told the others. “Should we check it out?” It was close to their campsite.

OOC: that's why I took the short rest


"Well, I don't think we're just going to roll over and try to sleep through that screaming." Ana says as she grabs her sword and cautiously starts down the path to the cottage. "Make sure everyone is awake."

Hrgach grunted to Ana and started kicking the others awake. “Up! Something’s happening at the cottage,” he said. Then he started down the path after Ana. He couldn’t let a female outperform him.

Jockeying for position the hobgoblin and the human set off at the front of the pack hardly waiting for the others to come to their senses, half way down the hill another scream shoots through the silence arriving at the bottom off the hill and 10ft from the cottages porch the screaming has intensified and is now accompanied with the sounds of thrashing around, wood can be heard cracking and plates smashing.

Hrgach didn’t stop. He put his shoulder down and smashed through the door of the cottage. But the door was sturdier than the hobgoblin thought and he just bounced off with a growl of frustration.

Ana nearly slams into the hobgoblin as she skids to a halt. She tries the handle and is prepared to shoulder the door if it is locked.

OOC: Strength check [roll0] if necessary
EDIT: CRIT! I hope it's necessary :)
 


As Hrgach bounces off the door he notices it makes a rattling sound but doesn't have much time to contemplate this before Ana skids into his back pressing him between her and the door which once again rattles as force is applied. Ana herself tries the door which is locked as she steps and charges at the door it gives the woman hardly has chance to notice the set of chains crisscrossing the door frame before she barrels straight through them and finds her self inside the cottage.

The cottage has only a couple of rooms the one you are in appears to be the living quarters and probably looked nice before it was trashed. The rug lying in front of the hearth is torn in half, the plush chair has its stuffing strewn across the room, a mixture of bird down and sheep's wool the wood display case has all its glass smashed and the contents of the what was inside are leaking over the side. The other room appears to be a bed room and is mostly untouched.

The cause of the damage appears to be a man thrashing around in the floor his right arm is covered with hair and ends with a large set of claws digging into the wood, his face is elongated like a muzzle and his teeth are barred revealing their canine nature. It would appear you have interrupted this man's transformation.
