[QUOTE="Kid Charlemagne, post: 154119, member: 93"] [b]Old Kentfield Country Estate, June 7th, AE 420[/b] Anthius immediately abandons his "play dead" approach, and moves into a defensive posture. Gavin moves up and between he and Reana, the Girrilon does not last long. The hobgoblins put up a little bit of a fight, but in moments the only one left is the last of the leaders. Gavin takes a swing at him as he retreats into the corner of the room. "Cut it out!" Brennen yells. "He's giving up!" "Oh, [i]is[/i] he?" Gavin replies. He tries to physically intimidate the lone hobgoblin, and trips over one of the his compatriot's corpses. [i]Gavin rolled a "1" on his intimidate roll, I think.[/i] The hobgoblin drops his longsword and puts his hands up. "Hey, hey, hey," he stammers. "I have no interest in dying for these guys!" "Good choice," Reana says. "Where's Kentfield?" "He went down that way," the hobgoblin says, gesturing towards the next room, where the party knows the secret door to the temple is located. "Who's with him?" Brennen asks. "He's down there with Quinn, and with a troll. That's about it, as far as I know, but we don't go down there much." "So what's the deal here? Why are you helping Kentfield?" "Hey, he let us use these swanky digs," the hobgoblin says. "And he swung some kind of deal to get us a decommissioned ship from the Ulfang Navy. We're [i]pirates[/i]!" "[i]Were[/i] pirates, more like," Corwin says. "Kinda tough to sail a ship by yourself." Jovah steps in. "Did they bring an elf statue this way?" "Uh, yeah," the hobgoblin replies. "We helped them move it in through the sea cave entrance. They dunked it by the dock." "Underwater? Great," Gavin moans. "Is it guarded?" Jovah asks. "Not really. Well, I mean, except for the sharks..." "[i]Sharks?![/i]" "Yeah. 'Bout five of them." "This is getting better all the time," Gavin says. "Do they have any demons down there?" Reana asks. "I don't know anything 'bout that kinda stuff." Brennen thanks the hobgoblin for his answers, and then punches his lights out. "Okay, so it's down the hatch, I guess," the Sword of Kelanen says. "So who's opening the door?" Anthius asks. Brennen stops and thinks, and then looks at Gavin. "Ready?" "Huh? Yeah..." "One, two, [i]three[/i]!" The two fighters shake their fist three times, and then open them. "Scissors beats paper!" Brennen howls. Gavin shrugs in resignation. "Damn." [/QUOTE]
