[QUOTE="pogre, post: 6510285, member: 6588"] Intrepid Adventures of Legend or Hobo Murderers on the Loose (a pogre storyhour) [B]Episode 07[/B] [I]What Are Those Things?[/I] The chamber the adventurers emerged in had an ungodly odor that was nearly unbearable. The source of the odor was readily apparent as there was a pile of dead troglodytes in one corner of the cavern. [IMG]http://www.pogre.com/5th_edition_18_level3_entrance.jpeg[/IMG] “What could have slain all of those things?” Gideon asked. “It certainly solves the mystery of why the trogs were running around in the level above, they were fleeing someone,” Osbourne stated. “Or some thing,” Brodek added gravely. Giving the pile of bodies a wide berth, the adventurers moved on to the next chamber and were immediately confronted by three humanoids and a pair of huge canines. [IMG]http://www.pogre.com/5th_edition_19_level3_guards.jpeg[/IMG] “By the nine hells, what are those things!” Osbourne exclaimed. “Dogs,” Brodek grunted. “I mean the other things?” Osbourne asked. “Don’t know,” Brodek admitted, “but let’s see if they bleed.” Brodek charged one of the canines and quickly smashed the dog’s skull. Meanwhile, Cabo slinked around the edge of the cavern and stabbed one of the humanoids. Cabo’s strike was effective in wounding the humanoid, but quickly found himself in trouble. The other two humanoids quickly came to their brethren’s aid and with a unified attack the monsters nearly had Cabo knocked unconscious. The other two halflings rushed to Cabo’s aid. Helped by his furry-footed companions, Cabo managed to make a fighting withdrawal.While the pair of halflings struggled against the humanoids and even managed to slay one, Brodek finished off the other dog. Another attack led to the death of one of the humanoids.With the tide turning against it, the remaining humanoid attempted a fighting retreat, but was smashed down by the dwarf’s maul. Cabo was nearly dead and Gideon was heavily wounded. The group decided they needed to retreat from the caverns and find a safe place to rest. ****** The adventurers continued their journey after a decent rest and found a chamber with a large, bubbling pool. [IMG]http://www.pogre.com/5th_edition_20_level3_pool.jpeg[/IMG] Following a thorough investigation the adventurers determined the pool was safe and the bubbles were the result of an underground stream feed. ***** The next cavern the group entered was occupied. [IMG]http://www.pogre.com/5th_edition_21_level3_sleeping_chamber.jpeg[/IMG] There were three more of the nasty humanoids and behind the group was a Dark Elf. The enemy appeared ready, but the Dark Elf barked some sort of order to the humanoids and they backed off, but staying in readied combat stances. Osbourne and Gideon recognizing the elf wanted to talk began to ask the elf different things in various languages to see if there was a common language. Finally, the elf started to say something in response and an arrow shot through the air plunking right through the elf’s eye and embedding itself deeply into his skull. Cabo gave a victory whoop and Brodek charged the bewildered humanoids. >D.M. Note:< Once again, here endeth the parley… The humanoids seemed to lose their morale with the sudden loss of the dark elf and the ensuing melee was a one-sided slaughter. “Well shot peck!” Brodek boomed. “You know we might have gotten some information from him,: Osbourne complained. “We did. These nasty things are working for the dark elves,” Cabo retorted. “Yes, but what else is down here?” Osbourne asked. “One less dark elf!” Cabo said. “You know it’s been my experience there are few problems that cannot be solved by an arrow shot through an eye.” to be continued...
