[QUOTE="spacehulkster, post: 3276836, member: 13070"] “We best prepare quickly. Reinforcements will probably be here soon” spoke Zafnir. “Indeed, the drow is correct. Rudgar, take those two torches from the sconces and stand between those two entrances.” Kara-tor then pulled two more flasks from his pack and smashed one in front of each entrance. “And I thought the Azer would be the one burnin up all the fur today,” huffed Rudgar. “I got’s just the whistle for..” “NO! No whistling this time dwarf.” interrupted the wizard. “Just stand there and wait quietly for them to enter before you drop the torches. Qwergain, you’ll know what to do when.” “Qwergain SMASH!” bellowed the Orog, leaving no room for argument. Despite his outwardly ignorant persona, Zafnir suspected the brute was much more intelligent than he let on. It didn’t take much longer for the reinforcements to arrive, their yipping sounds warning the party to their imminent arrival. Roughly 10 kobolds burst through the entrance and then were immediately immersed in flame as Rudgar dropped the torch on queue. Rudgar then pulled out his urgosh and bashed away at those that had not fallen to the flame. Kara-tor and Zafnir fired bolts and arrows past the flaming area, picking off the kobolds that had not made it into the room yet. Qwergain heard more noises coming from another side passage and ran over to guard that area. Eight more goblins and an orc tried to enter the cavern from this passage and they were once again met with flaming oil. Rudgar continued battling the remaining kobolds from the Northern passage, while the rest of the group turned their attention to this new threat. Sensing that Lolth was pleased with the bloodshed he was causing, Zafnir sent several more goblins to their death. He focused mostly on those still in pain from their burns. The wizard hurled several invisible waves of force into the goblins, wounding several and also throwing them into others. Saving some of his power for later, he raised his crossbow once again and continued to rain crossbow bolts into the congested passageway. Qwergain, swatted several more goblins aside and then charged at the orc leader in a ferocious rage. The orc raised his sword to deflect the downward chop of the orog’s sword, but he underestimated the strength of the blow. Both blades sank into its skull and the orc slammed down hard to its knees and then fell lifelessly to the floor. The will of the goblins vanished along with the death of their leader and they bolted away from the melee. The group showed no sympathy though and every last one of them was cut down before they made it to freedom. The battle was won, but the group had suffered some injuries as a result. Zafnir received a nasty cut along one forearm and Qwergain was stabbed several times by rusty, goblin spear points. Rudgar quaffed a healing potion and Zafnir called upon the powers of the wild to close the wounds on himself and then on Qwergain. [/QUOTE]
