[QUOTE="maddman75, post: 95779, member: 2673"] [b]Mine troubles[/b] The characters adventures together began when ord Eldrad, Lord of Hookhill in the Gran March put out a call for adventurers. Most of his knights were off fighting the wars, and there were a band of orcs harassing the local miners. To make matters worse, the nearby dwarven mine was getting upset because they felt that the humans were starting to mine into dwarven territory. The group was sent to investigate. They found the miners were attacked whenever they tried to move the iron and gold into town. The heroes took a wagon along the trail with the warriors in the wagon instead of metal. Before too long they were indeed attacked by a small group of orcs. Vartan entangled them, the archers cut down whoever tried to escape. After some brief interrogation, they learned the orcs were holed up in an old fort to the south. They tied the prisoners up on the wagons and had the driver take them back to the mine, figuring the miners would figure out how to treat them. They took off for the fort. There they found a ten foot brick wall with orc on the wall. Vartan and Rytalyn hid beyond the back side. The rest of the group prepared the horses. Vartan started loosing arrows and Rytalyn fired magic missiles. The orcs on the walls started running to that side of the fort. With the front walls undefended, the rest of the group charged. As Vartan and Rytalyn knocked orcs off the walls, Helios and Beltar burst open the gate by charging a horse into it. Coop and Coal leapt on the walls and started taking out archers. Helios and Beltar cut through the orcs. By the time the chieftan emerged, the forces were all but defeated. After some brief interrogation, one of the orcs claimed that a dwarf comes and gives them money and weapons every couple weeks to attack the humans. Dwarven minted coins in the chieftan's chambers and high quality weapons seemed to pan this out. This seemed odd - dwarves may get terrirotial, but surely they wouldn't collude with orcs! They decided to stay in the fort and wait for this dwarf to come by and get the truth out of him. Sure enough, after a couple days the dwarf came right on time. He seemed to be a noble man and certainly had a slippery manner around him. After being threatened with being dragged before the king, he confessed. He claimed that Dumathoin himself had appeared before him and commanded him to pay the orcs to harass the humans. He was utterly convinced, but after asking a couple simple questions, they figured it was something a trouble maker with a couple of illusions could have pulled off. They took off to the dwarven hold to explain this matter to the King. [/QUOTE]
