[QUOTE="vagabundo, post: 4490310, member: 55864"] Are the Goblins able to guess where the PCs went? Tracks, clues? If so and they know that something bad-ass came through and went into the lair they, being the Gobo's they are, would probably try and keep it locked in there. They are unlikely to know it is adventurers, although they might, and if there is nothing coming out of the caves after a few hours they may assume that something ate whatever killed their buds. If their was an ambush planned they will get bored, goblins have a notorious bad attention span. But Balgorn or the hobgoblin may get them to try and board up the entrance, those caves are becoming too dangerous. Or they could trap/alarm the entrance. Goblins will lie, tell tall tales and speculate;rumours may spread through the tribe of some fantastic monster that caused the killings, some will even claim to have witnessed it. Your PCs could pick up on this, maybe overhear some conversations if they are being stealthy. Balgorn will replace the guards at the entrance and I'd have all the goblins alert and even jumpy - I can see one goblin shoot another in the arse with a loaded crossbow at a loud noise. More goblins may even be drafted in from the surroundings - I had the rest of the tribe near by living in a cave in the forest. [/QUOTE]
